A NEW PlNAFORE

When Gilbert and Sullivan's Pima fore" was revived" at the New York Hippodrome last Thursday night, with a double cast of stars of such brill iancy that their very names made ones eyes blink the good old ship must have wondered just what had happened to it. It was such d "Pinafore" as had never been seen on land or sea. In order to make possible unusual scenic effects and embellishments" the peri od had been moved back to the begin ming of the nineteenth century, and as the operetta in itself was too short for a full evenings entertainment, such as the patrons of the Hippodrome have been accustomed to- interpolations had been made in the score. The manage ment announced that they had been careful to have only the work of Gil- bert and Sullivan intetpolated. but, nevertheless the additions were male.
 t is too earlN yet to l:noW what the critics said about it; but the reviews of tg.o CT three of those caustic gen tlemen who believe that Gilbert ard Sullivan knew f;yl> well how to amuse people for q given length of time with
 oat the aid of q derrick or doctor,
 Hlll be worth reading.
 I hat il is tac most gorgeous produc-
 tion of this iavoritc opera that has ever
 been seen there can be no doubt. for
 there is only one Arthur NoeStlein, and
 there IS only one IIippodrome and the
 combination spells the most wonderful
 scenic effects that the world has ever
 seen
 AS to the cast it is a ,eally wonder
 full affair There are two perform
 ances a day at the Hippodrome so
 there gre two complete casts for the
 production and probably in it's long
 history Pinafore has never had se
 many illustrious names upon its roster
 To begin with the two Buttercups, are
 Miss Fay Templeton. whose name alone
 should fill any thcater in America. and
 Miss Josephine JacobY. famous as q
 9rand opera star; then Eugene CoWles plays that wee bit "The BoatsWain' with Earl Marshall as his alternate Can You hear T am an Englishman' as Mir CoWles will sing it2 It would !, be worth d trip from Phoenix to Ne7 York just to hear him once CaptaiI Corcoran is played by William Hin shaw Who like Miss Jacoby has suns with the Metropolitan Opera O.. anc his alternate is q singer of the sam' calibre. Ruby Cutter Savage who sing Josephine is q member of the Bostol Grand Opera company and Helel Hcineman who alternates with her a noted concert singer. Ralph Rack straw is taken care of by John Rard sley and Vernon Dalhart and Sir Jos eph is represented in Harrison Brock ! bank and Wm. C.
