A1Tg FOR AT rzHarRH
NEWARK

At the Newark Theatre this week
A. II. Woods presents in motion pic
ture plays the last 100 days of the
power of Napoleon. The scenes are
wonderful reproductions of a great
epoch in the life of one of history's
greatest characters. For the most
part the scenes have been acted for
the camera on the original place of
happening.
This is particularly so of the
famous battle of Waterloo, where the
Little Corporal met his final and
most crushing defeat. This scene is
wildly portrayed. It shows the
emperor confident at first of his
victory, then 1t depicts the tide of
battle running against him. 1t ex-
plains how a traitor brings him false
reports, and finally portrays the utter
rout of the once invincible army of
1913, 900 men.
The films open with Napoleon on
the shores of Elba, just before the
start of his last 100 days. They go
on to his entrance into st. Jean at
the head of 615 men, and shows how
recruits join his army at every turn.
When he reaches the River Sombre,
he has force of 10000. 1t is then
the pictures show him planning for
the big battle to wipe out Wellington
and Butcher at a single blow. His
marshals, however oppose him. All
are seen in heated debate.
He finally wins them over and the
battle and its terrible defeat follow.
Then is shown his exile and death
among few faithful followers on
ST. Helena.

that makes him popular.
Nat Fields and Company present a
pretentious chorus girl number, en-
titled 1.-THE Girls Behind the Coun-

more dancing are the ingredients Of
the act. Princess Minnekommis and

warning, and he asks her to leave
her people and go with him. He,
however, refuses to marry her be

MUSICAL COMEDY SCORES
HIT AT ORPHEUM THEATRE

Miss May Emory, tall and stately
beauty, is another of the principals
who was well received last night
and made good both as a songstress
and an actress. Sadie Livermore
and Estelle Mascotte did well last
night in small roles.
OF the men the honors for the first
production go to Harry P. Gribbon
as Sydney Lyons, an actor and matt
nee idol, THE Man VINO Owns
Broadway" MT Grfbbon is built ON
the lines of De Wolf Hopper. a reg
ular human string bean, and. like
humor that is all his own. Mr..
/ Gribbon got into the good graces of
the audience right from the start,
and will be a big favorite with the
Orpheum patrons.
In marked contrast TO the tall and
lanl1y Gribbon is Arthur Conrad, who
plays the juvenile roles in the COM
pany. Mr.. Conrad is less than five
feet tall, but every inch of him Is full
of artistic ability. He is a wonder
full dancer and also the possessor of a
singing voice that Is far above the
average.
Another man with a fine singing
voice is Hudson F'reeborn, who last
adventurer, while Taylor Williams
displayed both singing and acting
ability in the role of a multi million
aire whose money the gambler and
the adventures, played by Miss
Emory, are after.
A neat little bit of work was the
singing of when a Servant Learns a
Secret" by Miss EsteN Mascotte Miss
Sadie Liver1nore, Lee DAILY, Augustus
Minton and George Mantell. An
other was the singing of AL Aboard
for Dixie Land" by Miss sermon, as
sisted by the chorus.
1.-THE Man Who Owns Broadway"
was written by George NJ. Cohan and,
| like all of the Conan shows, has just
enough Of plot to hang a number
of catchy and lively airs on and give
the chorus and principals chance to
cut loose some rapid fire humor that
has the merit of being clean as we'll
as funny A Cohan show would not
be complete without the national col
ors being Haunted, so last night Mr..
Gribbon interpolated the song "Off
to Mexico" assisted by the chorus
waving big red, white and blue ban
ners that stretched clear across the
stage.
The Orpheum Musical Comedy
Stock Company has come to stay I'M
less the writer is away off in his
judgment of the sort of attraction
that will please the Newark public.
Local theatregoers have always
shown q, decided preference for light,
clean comedy and bright, sparkling
and catchy music, well sung. That
the Orpheum company can amply
fill this bill was demonstrated in the
lively, snappy full of vim and ginger,
performance given last night
DUKE WELLINGTON.

MINERS

Harry Levan, starring in the Bellies
of Beauty Row." at Miners Empire
Theatre this week, is supported by a
company that does justice to the
parts allotted them. frankie Heath,
always popular in this city, is better
than ever Miss Heath and Mr.. Levan
appear in a singing and dancing spe-
cialty that wins them several encores.
Putting 1t Over is the vehicle
used. Mr. Levan and Miss Heath are
seen in the stellar roles. They have a
dainty soubrette in the person of
Bessa Rosa, who keeps the audience
on edge every time she appears, as it
is almost impossible to tell what the
little lady will do next.
Miss Rosa is the possessor of a
pleasing voice, and her feet are never
still. Miss Clara Devine, another of
the funmakers. does full justice to her
part, and has a good singing voice.
AS special attraction, Charles Fin
berg, advance man of the show, has
succeeded in getting the best profess
rollers in match and exhibition
contests. Frank L. Kramer, the
champion of them all, who says that
this is his first and last appearance
on any stage; Jackie Clark, the AUS
tralian champion; Frank Cavanagh,
Elmer Collins, George Wiley, Clarence
Carmen, Willie Coburn and Tommy
Smith will all appear during the
week. Kramer was unable to ride
last night, as he was scheduled to
ride at the meet in New Haven, but
ne will appear Wednesday and Fri
day nights.
:, In match race with Georgei last
night, Tommy Smith had just worked
himself up to top speed when the
front roller collapsed, throwing him
to, the stage. He escaped injury,
however.

When a newly formed musical COM
edy company comes into a strange
town and theatre and puts so much
life and ginger into a show that it
scores on the first night in manner
that causes the audience to sing the
praises of the performance all the
way out of the theatre, it certainly
has made a success.
That is exactly what the Orpheum
Musical Comedy Stock Company did
at the Orpheum Theatre last night in
it's initial production of 1.-THE Man
Who Owns Broadway" To use a
theatrical expression the show ''got
over" in great shape, and 1t deserved
to, for the production was pronounced
by veteran first-nighters TO be the
best ever seen in this city.
Clifford Stork and M. S. Schlesinger
stand as sponsors for the production
put on last night, while the company
is under the personal direction Of
Lewis J. Morton, for many years con-
nected with the production of light
operas and musical comedies.
Manager Morton has gathered a
most capable stock company for the
Orpheum, and if last nights success
Is ally CilLCIiOIl Tic SoAApdilS 10 III LOi
q run that will last until the Brownell-
Stork company is ready to resume
work at that theatre in the fall.
The company Is well balanced, the
principals all being performers Of ar
tistic ability as well as being the
possessors of good singing voices.
The chorus consists of twenty girls,
all young and good looking. And
what is more to the point in a musi-
cal way is this fact, the chorus girls
all have good voices and know how
to use them, while their work is full
of vim and snap at all times.
True, some of the performers were
trifie nervous at the first perform
ance last night, but it can truthfully
be said that the opening night was the
smoothest ever staged in this city.
Miss Georgia Campbell, a beautiful
young woman, is the prima donna and
possesses a fine and strong soprano
voice Her role last night did not
give her as much opportunity TO use
her voice as she deserved, but her
work in the solo, I'm in Love with
One of the Stars" stamped her as a
vocalist of high merit Miss Campbell
is not unknown to Newark theatre
goers, having appeared at Olympic
Park last summer in the title role of
Madame Sherry" and also in a lead
ing role in George Washington. Jr."
Miss Primrose Semon, a dainty,
gingery little thing, is the soubrette of
the company, and is the owner of a
pleasing voice and personality, while
as a dancer she is one Of the cleverest
seen outside of the vaudeville stage in
some time. In her work she reminds
one very much of Stella Tracey, and
bids fair to become as big a favorite
before many weeks have passed as
Miss Tracey was during her engage
ments in this city.

MUSIC NOTES

The Newark Symphony Orchestra
gave a concert in Wallace Hall last
night and it is safe to say that It
never scored a bigger hit. It had TO
respond to numerous encores. The
audience crowded the hall and the
large turnout of society people
showed that the Newark Symphony
Orchestra concerts are real social
events. Louis Ehrke, the conductor,
came in for large share of the ap-
plause.
The orchestra was assisted by Miss
Inez Barbour, a delightful and tai
ented soprano singer from New York.
Her accompanist was |. Louis MINER.
