Coburn PLAYERS Here June sth.

s'The Yellow Jacket is the famous
play of the day, and the most extra
ordinary dramatic production of this or
any other year. Five months it stayed
at the Fulton Theatre, New York, and
the last four weeks it turned away peo-
pie at every performance. 1t IS de-
scribed as a Chinese play done in a
ing to people who have never seen a
Chinese play. The story might as well
| be American as Chinese. It would fit
into the drama of any other country as
well as it does into the theatricals of
! China and the United States. It Is
story of a young man who shortly
after his birth is deprived of his
parents, is fostered by an honest farmer
and b wife, finally falls in love with
until he discovers who his ancestors
were. Ancestor" in a Chinese play
are equivalent to fame and fortune in a
drama of the Western World.
! Upon reaching the age of twenty he
decides to go out and find out who were
his ancestors, just as some young man
born and brought up in same other
country would go cut in search of his
fortune. The search takes him through
adventures, trials and troubles not un-
like those that are Detailing young men
in any other country today. The love
of his mother, Chez Moo, which is oon-
stantIy with him and the love of little
Plum Blossom whose slipper he carries,
adds TO his own integrity, bravery and
! love of honor, truthfulness and family
! bring him through all these vicissitudes,
! cause him TO find his ancestors and take
him back to the girl of his heart. It is
not an unusual story, but it is presented
| In an unusual way.
| The costumes are wonderful old en-
| broideries imported from China and
worn by generations of Chinese actors.
! Some of them are over four hundred
years old.
