to engage her for his show regardless
OF what salary she might ask. He

WONDERFUL SHEEP DOG
In WALTERS NEW PLAY

In Eugene Walters new play, The
Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come"
the dog, Jack, is almost as important
a role as the Little Shepherd himself
Indeed few dogs, or even humans, have
been so much the center of interest as
Jack will be at the opening perform
ance at the Belasco Theater tomorrow
evening.
In casting about for a dog worthy of
John FOX's novel, Eugene Walter
heard that Young America" was clos
ing and seized the opportunity to get
Jaspar, so recently noted as one OF
Americas greatest dog stars. though
essentially a city bred pup.
1t then happened that at about the
same time William Hodge decided to
close his run in The Road to Happi-
ness" This released another equally
famous dog, Jack, a remarkable collie
trained since puppyhOod to appear in
public, first as a vaudeville artist, and
now as a real actor at $3.50 a week
union members please take noticeD
OF course Jack was chosen as an
Ideal type Of sheep dog, being a Scotch
collie with exceptional beauty and in
telligence.
That intelligence is needed for his
role in THE Little Shepherd of King
dom Come" is due to the fact that Eu-
gene Walter has built the entire plot
about the fierce love of boy for his
dog, and the equally faithful devotion
of the dog for his master.

Clothes" is a comedy in which Maude
Gilbert, the leading woman, will appear
in the role of Olivia Sherwood, the char
acter in which Grace George made a
pronounced success, resulting in a two
years run at the Manhattan Theater,
New York.
Olivia is living in an atmosphere of
social display. Her many shares of
stock are really valueless, but the
lawyer who attends to her affairs con-
ceals the facts from her and supplies
her with money. He is not yet divorced
from wife whom he does not love,
but he plans to win the girl, though
she is about to marry. rich lover He
Immediately leaves her when the lawyer
tells him she is going to marry him be-

THE CURRENT WEEK.
Be1asco-"The Little Shepherd OF
Kingdom Gomez


Tomorrow evening THE Little shep-
herd of Kingdom Come" will be seen
for the first time on any stage at the
Belasco Theater. 1t is a new play by
Eugene Walter. founded on the famous
novel by John Fox. jr. 1t has every OPP
portunity for beautiful and effective
scenery, filled as 1t is with the atmos-
phere of the mountains. All but two
of the characters are mountaineer types.
There are many thrilling themes and
many moments of suspense when the
rival clans are face to face in their al
tercations as to the fate of the boy,
Chad. and the dog. Jack.
Chad is The Little Shepherd who
has Gods own gift to win love from all
but his enemies, and nothing but re-
spect and fear from them. In the
language of the primitive frontiersman,
he is a "woodscolt'' without a 'pappy
or nanny" but he is a sturdy self
reliant little chap who has wandered
since early childhood, seeking shelter
with kindly mountaineers who have
gladly fathered and mothered this waif
about whom there is such mystery. His
gallant defense of his dog. Jack, his
meeting with Melissa, another waif. and
their adventures under the roof of Old
Joel, a hardy mountaineer, make a story
that strikes deep with emotion, and
sentiment that is appealing.
The drama has been staged by Edward
MacGregor under the personal super
vision of the author. and will be pre-
sented here under the direction OF the
Messrs. Shubert.
The large cast, carefully chosen for the
portrayal of pioneer types found In the
Cumberland Mountains prior to the civil
war, includes Jas Davis. Robert Forrest,
Mona Hungerford, Wallace Owen, s.
James, r. H. Barrett, Frank Gerback,
George Dunn, Davis Ross, Louise Mack
intosh. Crosby Little. James Mace, Olaf
Skoolan, Robert Rogers, c. D. Woods,
Mark Price, Joseph Mann, and Jack, the
dog.
