RETURN TO SHUBERT

written by Philip Bartholomae for
only one purpose, and that was to
promote laughter. As a trouble chaser
and an antldote for the blues no bet
ter remedy has been found There
are no problems in it for the audience
to bother about There are no ques-
lions asked that send the playgoers
away to think about 1t is all fun
two hours and half of riotous laugh
ter. The only mental exercise needed
In that required to keep up with the
constantly shifting complications that
enmesh little Miss Brown and the
perturbed Mr.. Dennison in situations
for which they are not to blame and
from which they seem unable to es-
cape.

vided the best company of farceurs
to be obtained. Madge Kennedy, in
the title role has already won a very
secure place in the hearts of theatre
patrons. Albert Brown is known as
one Of the most talented comedians on

BROWNELL-STORK co.
TO PLAY "STOP THIEF

AT the Orpheum Theatre next week
the Brownell-Stork Stock Company
will present for the first time in stock
the New York Gaiety Theatre success
Stop Thief" by Carlyle Moore.
AS producer of hearty laughs and
more of them than few farces have
furnished in many years, stop Thief
can claim the palm. The story around
which the play has been constructed
has to do with family in which
there are two kleptomaniacs, though
neither of the persons so afflicted sus-
poets the trait in the other.
When the play opens it is the wed.

he is told of the situation he keeps uI

declares, the softest opportunity fol-

Stop Thief" is essentially farce Of
swift action, snappy dialogue and
climax surprises. Its funny situations
follow each other so rapidly that the
laughs brought forth by one tread or
the heels of the next, with the result
that the audience is kept in a con.

throughout the entire performance.

ton that Newark audiences contem-
plate a performance by the distin-
guished American actor, Robert T.

Gently been won over into vaudeville,
and so greatly did he enjoy his work
In The Coward" a one-act playlet

theatregoers, that he decided to de-
vote his entire career to vaudeville.
Mr.. Haines will be seen here at the
head Of a splendid company in a fine
little comedy drama entitled 1.-THE
Man In the Dark" by William J.
Hurlbutt. In the title role Mr.. Haines
is cast as happily as he has ever
been. The character is a suave, bland
and mysterious person with touch
that is most interesting. He philoso-
phizes without being preachy. and is
Z funny without fippancy. The sus-
pense aroused by the appearance Of
"a face in the dark" is artfully sus-
tanned, and the entire piece is full OF
clever situations and crisp, telling
lines.

act offered by Burley and Burley.
THE Dude and the Scot" There is
a decided note of quaintness and in
dividuality in their entertainment. and

known to require even an effort to re-

Wilson and Wilson, another big act

new line of comedy. They possess a
violin that can almost sing, dance and
