made such splendid impression a
few seasons ago.

play of the West. It's central figure,
MA Wa Xha-Sa," is character that

cinate and interest. The play is pre-
scented under the direction of Messrs.

mounting that is both beautiful and
massive.

the bill for next week is simply an
other one of the unusual big things
offered at Proetor's.

FAT BAY" GRIPPING DRAMA,
is COMING TO SHUBERT

During the first half of the 1914
theatrical season in New York bust
ness conditions fell to low ebb.
Elaborate and expensive productions
were flashed on Broadway only to be
called to the storehouse or sent on
the road after three or four weeks
of poor box Office returns. Several of
the smaller producing interests were
forced to file petitions of bankruptcy.
But a few dramatic offerings
weathered the storm. and one of the
very few was "At Bay" which en-
loved a most successful run of
seventeen weeks at the Thirty-ninth
Street Theatre. This thrilling ro-
mantle comedy drama won the ap-
prevail of Broadway theatre-goers
from the very start-chiefiy because it
is a clean and wholesome piece in which
no troublesome sex questions are dis
cussed or moral lessons glorified.
"At Bays" engagement at the Shu-
bert Theatre will be for the week Of
February Q.
The scene of "At Bay is laid in
Washington, where it was written by
George Scarborough during his eX-
periences as a mem Der of the secret
service department Captain Law
renee Holbrook, an affable Irish fill
buster, succeeds in winning the heart

MINERS TO CELEBRATE
ANNIVERSARY WEEK

There is plenty to laugh at in "The
Legend of the Ring" the new musical
bizarre farce comedy which Charles
II. Waldron presents at Miners EN-
starting Monday, anniversary week,
Starting Monday, February 2, when
the Trocadero Burlesquers come to
town with Frank F'inney. the author,
as the star. Scenes are laid at New
port, thence to India The comedy
situations provide Mr.. Finney plenty
of opportunities for his eccentric style
of humor, and so long as he and Sam
Adams are on the stage the fun is
unfiagging. Florence Mills sings
charmingly, while Minnie Burke, the
little princess of soubrettes, has a
part which provides unusual oppor-
tunities for this charming soubrette,
and with the powerful singing chorus,
the "Bostonians'' and the farce
comedy stars, the lovers of booming
burlesque are promised most enjoy
able performance.
During the week of February 8
Robes Beauty Show will be in evil
dence at Miners Empire Theatre.

FOR RETURN ENGAGEMENT

\ rare treat is in store for local
theatre goers in the forthcoming re-
turn engagement of Bayard Veillers
dramatic success within the Law"
This play is scheduled for a second
week in this city at the Shubert
Theatre, beginning Monday evening.
The plot OF the play would seem to
indicate that there are plenty of ex-
citing moments and much thrill in
it. The story deals primarily with
the struggle between labor and CAPT
tai 1t treats of that phase Of the
shop girls life where she combats
with the temptations that surround
her in trying to exc out an existence
on a pitiful wage of six dollars a
week. Briefly it is as follows:
Mary Turner, the heroine of the
play, is a shop girl in the Emporium
department store in New York city.
Prior to the opening of the first act,
stolen goods have been discovered
in her locker and her employer, Ed
ward Glider. has had her arrested
and through his influence sentenced
to three years Imprisonment, to
make an example of her. Mary, con-
scious of her innocence, obtains an
interview with him under pretense
of giving him information that will
solve the problem of stopping the
thefts. He grants this interview, ex-
pecting a confession on her part. In
stead of this, however, the shop girl
tells him that he can stop the steal
ing by giving the girls a living wage,
thereby making thievery unnecessary.
Incensed he orders the detective to
take her away to prison.
Then, in a scathing denunciation,
the Infatuated girl at the finale of the
first act tells him Of the condition OF
her shop girl companions as they
exist, how they live, crowded three
in a miserable room, cooking their
frugal meals over a dilapidated gas
stove, walking home miles at night
after being on their feet all day in
order to save carfare; tells how they
are deprived of medical attendance
when i'll from privations due to in
sufficient clothing. If girl secures
the necessary comforts of life it is
through theft or a worse evil. The
act closes with Mary being dragged
away, breathing vengeance.

has secured for next week at the
Lyric Theatre the very latest photo
play, entitled ben Bolt" This pic
ture will be shown for the first time
on any screen at the Lyric Theatre,
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
The story of Ben Bolt is founded on
a beautiful song poem, written some
years ago, and with this picture, ar
| rangements have been made for spe-
cial music. Ben Bolt is in love with
Alice Lee, but he has a rival The
rival tries to get Ben Bolt drunk, so
that he can discredit him before
Aliee's father. Ben Bolt then goes to
sea on his vessel, and in the mean
time Alice's father is on the verge of
financial ruin, because of the rumor
that his trading ship is reported to
have been sunk. Fortunately Ben
Bolt is in the vicinity of the sinking
ship and rescues it. He then lows
the ship safely into port.
His rival throws Alice's father over
board, but the old gentleman is res
cued by Ben Bolt. Out of gratitude
to Ben Bolts heroism, the father
consents to the marriage of Alice and
Ben Bolt. On the day of the wedding,
Ben Bolt is kidnapped by his rival
and the rivals crones, who after
stunning him carry him to the old
mill, ana Tie MIN TO the Wlliuiulli
Then they start the wheel going. Ben
Bolt is discovered half drowned by a
farm hand and rescued. While the
wedding of Ben Bolt and Alice is in
progress Ben Bolts rival steals the
formers vessel and goes to sea- Ben
Bolt charters another vessel, pursues
his rival, and after hand to-hand
encounter on the deck of the ship
Ben Bolt is victorious
The picture is said to be one of The
finest pieces of photography ever
shown on any screen. Nothing is left
to the imagination. The scenes on tie
high seas are exceptionally wonder

HENRY MILLER WILL
PLAY 1.-THE RAINBOW

The sale of seats for the engage
ment of Henry Miller in his latest
success, THE Rainbow" has opened
at the Newark Theatre. This dis
tinguished player comes to this city
on Monday night next for an engage
rueut of one week.
Henry Miller's appearances in this
city have been among the events OF
the theatrical and he has presented
kere no play more interesting than
his new vehicle and none with the
charm which characterizes the A. p.
Thomas comedy which served him for
a run of many months at the Liberty
Theatre, New York.
II is said to be entirely away from
anything he has done and its story
OF the advent of a daughter long
away from her father and the change
her coming makes in his life and
Viewpoint is one of great appeal
Strong in sentiment it lacks that
often overdone quality called heart
interest"
Pietorially 1.-The Rainbow" has also
its charm Its first act is laid in
the luxurious quarters of a bache-
lor, in Fifth avenue, in New York
Its scene changes to a country es-
tate on Long Island, and again to a
VIA on the RIVIERA. overlooking the
Mediterranean. 1t may be imagined
that Henry Miller's notable ability
as producer has found an outlet
in arranging a series of scenes filled
with warmth and color.
Many Of the players who supported
Mr.. Miller during the long metropoli-
IAN run of 1.-THE Rainbow" will sur
round him during his coming engage
Inent, among them being Ruth Chat
tcrton. Louise Closer Hale, Alice
Baxter, Muriel Hope, Edna McAuley,
Charles Hammond Robert Stowe Gill
II. Conway Wingfeld, Daniel Pennell
John Raymond and others. This will
be the first opportunity local play
gDers will have of seeing Mr.. Miller in
The Rainbow" the success of thC
play hitherto having confined its per-
formnnces to New York, Boston, Chi
cngo. Philadelphia and a few of the
Eastern cities.
Mr.. Miller has not been seen in
Newark for several years, and as he is
ons of our most distinguished local
favorites his appearances have ad-
di.ionai interest
