COMING ATTRACTIONS.
ssPrfnee Karl.1

Prince Kari" IL announced as the play
which will follow The Rainbow" at the
Columbia Theater with the full strength
Of the Columbia Players in the lengthy
cast the comedy calls for. The name
Of Richard Mansfield Is lovingly and ir-
revocably linked with the character of
Karl Won Arhmien, for from the time of
its original production at the Boston Mu-
scum In the spring OF 1886 until Mr..
Mansf1eld's death Il was not only his IA
vorite comedy character. but one that
the public incessantly insisted upon seeing
him in. 1t is character that mixes SEN
timent with dialect comlcality in a truly
quaint and irresistible fashion that will
afford ample opportunities for the talents
Of A H. Van Buren, The company will
be ideal In the individual parts assigned,
and the staging and costumes promise to
be Of notable richness.

by the Poll Players. This celebrated
stage story from the pen Of Alexander
Dumas, the younger. is not a fantastic
romance, but a great human document.
1t tells a powerful story OF a loved, low

nance, was not an imaginary person.
In real life she was Marie Dupless5is and
In 1875 she was the reigninE beauty of

story which Mr.. Dumas has written
around her life is unquestonably the
greatest acting play in the history Of the
stage. The central character has ranked

ATE HIS ACT.

David Belasco, apropos Of the -terrific
inroads that moving pictures have made
on the regular theater, said In New York:
''The cream Of the theater has not suf-
fered. No. the best has not suffered.
But down at the bottom. down amongst
the skim milk. so to speak, there the
suffering has been terrible.

vived tomorrow afternoon by the Poll
Players. This love story Is fun OF the
romance Of the West, and gives faitlDr
full picture Of a period in the history

Players. with A. H. VanBuren and
Dorothy Bernard in the roles Of Nell
Sumner and his daughter. Cynthia,

ago, by Henry Miller and Ruth Chatter
ton. Since that time the piece has been
recognized throughout the country as one
of the genuine gems OF modern dramatic
construction. The story OF The Rain
bow" differs from that of the usual prob
Hem play in that the pivot upon which
st revolves is pate-nal love. A father
IS separated from his daughter through
Ean unfortunate marital misunderstand-
ing. The little girl spends her life In
France with her mother until she ar
Tives at the age when IL is inevitable
that she notice that the fathers of other
girls are their companions. With
unerring instinct she determines to
see her own father and persuades
her mother to set sail for New York.
Once there she one day drifts into his
apartment unannounced-drifts In among
his questionable friends; brings to him
her young love and q personality that
wins his heat. How she eventually sue
ceeds in reuniting the estranged par
ents is developed in the course Of the
play.
In addition to Mr.. VanBuren and Miss
Bernard the cast will include Carrie

Bessie Maxwell. Grace Peters David
