''The Garden of Allah" Com- ing for Four Performances
 Including a Matinee

The gigantic scenic production, "The Garden of Allah" four-act dramatiza- tion of the novel of Robert Kitchens which will come to the Jefferson theatre on Thursday for four performances, rnati- ness Saturday, will outrank anything of it's type ever seen before in this city
 The nine scenes of the play will be ar tistic reproductions of the desert or scenes near the desert, and will provide won derful series of settings for acting of the fervid. romantic character demanded by the plot of Mir. Kitchens very famous novel.
 The story is of a young Trappist monk s flight for the monastery in which he has spent 19 years. He meets a pretty Eng fish woman with whom he falls passion ately in love. She returns his intense af- lection. and against the warnings of friends. She marres the mysterious youth, and they depart to spend their honeymoon in the desert.
 Constantly haunted by his broken vows, the monk is led one night to confess his true character to friend of his bride, who bids the monk confess to her
 The wife, ebeing devoutly religious woman. is mortified d, the revela ton of her husbands true character. She bids him return to his monastery, but does not tell him she is soon to become a mother
 Miss Edyth Latimer will be seen in the part of the wife, "Domini Enfilden," MT. Lawson Butt as Boris Androvsky," the trappist monk; MT. Howard Gould as Count Anteoni,' and MT. Albert An druss as Father Raubier." -s,t
 Others in the large company include Miss Estelie The'aud as Suzanne, Mir, Leo de Valery as Batouch, and MT, William Jeffrey as Captain de Trevignac There are over 100 people in all used in the presentation of this spectacular produc- tion and it is exactly as presented at the Century theatre. New York, for run of one year.

It often happens that when book has hecn dramatized it's presentation on the stage causes the audience to look with interest at the name of the author and inquire, "WEat else has he written?' And then there follows a wild demand for his books that makes his popularity look like Q contagion.
 This will not be the case with the mag nitcently staged and inspiring romantic Crama. "The Garden of Allah" which will come to the Jefferson theatre Thurs cay for four performances with a mati- nee on Saturday.
 "Wbo" the audience will ask, lis the genius that saw the possibilities for such an amazing spectacular production in such q book? Who read this book and saw between the lines the opportunity for producing the greatest scenic play the stage has ever known?'
 The Garden of Allah,' as a book, is the foundation upon which has been built 2 play that everyone should see, and when they see it, they will go away mar yelling at the wonderful edifice which architects of the spectacular have erect ed. It is a series of marvellous visions, the likc of which has never been produced cn any stage.
 Robert Hichens, the author, undoubted- ly recognizes the superiority of the scenes to the story, for the drama throughout is made subservient to the tales the pie lures tell-the great breeding mystery of the desert, the wonderful spell it casts over all who, once beholding it, can never leave it, the secret of it's silences and the longing hope of the world-weary

in the hearty, spontaneous laughter de- veloped in performance of Harry B. and Robert B. Smiths book of this piece. From the opening chorus there follows about 10 minutes of action devoted to what is technically known as planting the plot of the story. From this for ward, the story moves at rapid pace, from one situation to it's succeeding se- quence with all the ingenious develop ments to be found only in d genuine American musical play. Each upcome is natural and even logical result of what has gone before and the scenes thus worked out make for a strain of laughter that is one of the most impelling features of a thoroughly captivating performance.
 It is a general law of comedy that clever lines get chuckles. but only an adroitly contrived situation will bring out burst of laughter. -....,-..
 After The Red Rose had run for months in New York and the magazines and newspapers had seemingly exhausted the supply of interesting detail concern ing it, one of the cleverest magazine writers of the country visited John c. Fishers general offices in New York with a request from the publisher that he be permitted to select lines from the comedy and show why they were funny.
 In subjecting the work of this literary scrutiny the odd fact was developed that, removed from tine action of the piece and printed just on it's merit. the whole script contained not one funny line.
 The Messrs. Smith had constructed their book so splendidly that one must hear each new line read with it's accompany ing situation to be able to realize it's comic effect upon an audience The net result demonstrated that to reproduce the laughs of ''The Red Rose it would be necessary to print practically a complete reproduction of the story and the accom- panying "business" of the players in the action and, of course. as far as maga- zine utilization was concerned, that was out of the question.
 ''The Red Rose,' which, by the way, is the musical comedy sister to 'Florodora, D comes to the Jefferson theatre next Wednesday matinee and night with the original cast and wonderful singing and dancing chorus that jumped this success ful musical hit into popularity.

 SHREWD CAME Has Not Committed Himself to Monarchial Plan PRACTICALLY ASSUREL| Proof Given by Failure of Government to Uphold Impeachment of Men Who Started the
 Movement

Peking. October 20.-(Special Correspond eIice of the Associated Press.) )-Presider| Yuan Shi-kai has never publicly given hi official sanction to the efforts of the CheI An Huei, OF Society for the PreservatioI of Peace, to re-esta blish the monarchy but failure of the government to upholI the board of -censors in the impeachmeil of the memb bers of the society, is geIi erally regarded as proof that the societI has the full approval of the Presider| and his advisers.
 The board of censors, which is a sol of government smelling committee, su{ tained charges brought against the Cho| An Huei, and the government referre' the impeachment to the minister of tf interior. This cabinet member has mol reported that all the promoters of tl society are men of culture and scholai. oG note and that their object is to el gage in theoretical discussion of the prii ciples of government, and not in any wa to disturb the peace of the country,
 Special interest attaches now to nov ments of General Yuan Chi-jui, the fo mer minister of war, and Vice Presided Lii Yuang- hung, the two most promineI opponents of the restoration of the moI archy.~ It has been frequently rumor@ that Gen. Yuan Chi-juf was assa ssinate} This, however, is not true.
 Last week Gen. Tuan Chi-jui submittt a memorial to the President urging tn with the coming of autumn his. .healtfj had not improved, and for this reasd he wished to be unburdened of the SD cial duties devolving upon him in tl headquarters of the army and navy. III distinguished general craved permission leave Picking that he might make his wa back to his native home in Anhui, al restore the tombs of his ancestors. Hoy| ever, the President graciously refused h request, as he desires to consult his fo mer secretary of war from time to tin on matters of high moment.
 Vice President Lii Yuan-hung is now e toying greater liberty than formerl He has moved from the palace in u Forbidden City. where he was practical a prisoner, and is now living with h family in mansion purchased for him the Chinese city near the legation qua ter, The mansion was formerly used reception place for the military clu and is situated in a beautiful garden
 This extension of, greater freedom the vice president is generally believed have come about as a result of his T fusal to participate in the monarchic movement.

THE CABARET GIRL, B|G MUSICAL. ACT, AT LYRIC THIS WEEK Pretentious Vaudeville Act Offered Lyric Patrons All This Week-Many
 Other Novelties

''The Cabaret Girl" one of the most and the highest priced act to appear this season at the Lyric, will be the all week headliner this week. This musical melange is presented by Bart McHugh and it is described as a tuneful glance into the shop window of Dame Fashion with 16 artists, stars among whom are Lian La Torgere and Arthur Geary. The offering this week will be a regular S1 50 attraction, but will be presented at popu- lar prices.
 ''The Cabaret Girl" has been described as an abbreviated musical comedy, with a laugh every time the clock ticks and musical number for every numeral on the dial. The book is by Thomas Gray, the melodies by Charles Shisler and the company has as it's fea- ture players Lian La Torgere and Arthur Geary, who are surrounded by IA capable delineators of mirth and melody. The plot of musical comedy does not mat ter much. 'The Cabaret Girl' possesses enough comedy to prevent the piece from resembling a series of specialties. It is. however, the musical numbers and the witty dialogue that are the principal at fractions. The Cabaret Girl'' is alto gcther the most fascinating Miss that has come to vaudeville in sometime. She and her friends are sure to become well come guests with MT. and Mrs. Audience
 Some of the attractive song numbers of the piece are, Our Cabaret" q Dropped Them All For You,'' Any Old Port in storm Triumph of Love" and Drink to the God of Love"
 There will be other acts on the bill to entertain also and while '"The Cabaret Girl'' will be the big attraction there will be oodles of other entertainment On the first half weeks bill with the big head liner there will be Harris and Manion in Uncle Jerry at the Opera;'' Dorothy Meuther, character comedienne, and Yan kee and Dixie, dogs of almost human intelligence.
 On the last half weeks hll there will be. 'The Cabaret Girl,'' of course, the Monte Trio, the three big voices in vaude- vile, the Yelling Lowering Trio cycling ccmiques in Fun at the County Fair,' and Pauline Saxon, Sis Perkins, rural comedienne.
 The bill for the present week promises to be among the best of the season and in addition to all these attractions mem tioned there will be the Pathe pictures and the Heezaliar film features. These pictures are considered by many the most entertaining of all moving picture fea.- tures. There will be three perform- arces~daily.

Canada's Growth
om the Rhode Island Times.

From the Rhode Island Times.
 Although Canada is growing in spite of the business depression and the dis ratch of her young men to the war, thinking people of that country are nop satisfied with the rate of increase in population. They are justified in this feeling of disappointment in view os the large number of immigrants that annually go within Canadas borders,
 The population of Canada. according to the census of l9lb was 7.206, 643. There has been an immigration into the country since then of 1880, 900. De- spite this immigration, according to q report from Ottawa, the present popu- lation of the dominion is only S,075, 900, including soldiers at the front.
 These figures show that, although Canada now has 2 population of over S,000,000. the estimated increase is nearly half a million less than the total immigration and that there is still a considerable annual exodus of Cana dians to the United States and other countries. It is also evident that the number of people going from this coun- try into the Canadian west is not so great as has been thought.
