SAZUS MATAZUS NAME OF PLAY
Not Name of Mexican General But of
An Entirely Novel Offering at
Apollo Next Monday.

Everybody's doing it. Doing what?
Asking the meaning of "Sazus Ma
tazus"-the title that is staring from
the walls and that promises to be ia
before many days. "Sazus Ma
tazus" is not the name of a Mexican
general, as some might suppose, nor
a test of sobriety like "Peter Piper
picks a peck of picked peppers"
"Sazus Matazus" is the name of a
play, the most novel dramatic produc-
ton ever offered on any stage, and it
will be presented at the Apollo The
atre all next week with Wednesday
and Saturday matinees. by William
Harris, Jr., just prior to an early en-
gagement at a Broadway playhouse.
For the first time in the history of
the stage a play in which all the char
acters are of the colored ace will be
given with a cast of prominent Broad
way favorites, many of whom will be
seen in black-face for the first time
in their careers 1t took much tact
on the part of Manager Harris to ac-
complish this, but after listening to
the first shocked objections of some of
the artists whom he had selected he
simply read Laurence Eyre's play to
them and they realized that, although
"Sazus Matazus" fairly teemed with
laughs, all the burnt cork and black
grease-paint in the world would not
obscure the heart interest, pathos and
dignity of the main story.
Never before has an attempt been
made to depict the colored man or
colored woman on the stage without
ridicule here Mr.. Eyre, the author,
has dwelt instead upon the extraor-
binary genial sympathy and comedy
that the true student of the race may
find. Treated with the utmost tact,
"Sazus Matazus" is nevertheless
crowded with laughter.

KEITH'S GARDEN PIER
THEATRE OPENS MONDAY
An Exceptional Bill Is the Attraction
For the Week.

B. F. Keith's Garden Pier Theatre
will open for the season next Monday,
with matinees daily at 2.30 and eve
ming performances at $50. The open
ing week bill is one Of great attrac-
tiveness and an excellent show is as
sured all who attend.
The queen of comedy character
singers, Irene Franklin, is preparing
several new songs for the occasion
and besides will sing any of her old
ones upon request.
A special sensational feature will
be "The Great Leon, the celebrated
Yogi of Far East India, presenting
fifteen separate feats of illusionary
achievement.
Poets, authors and sages have ex-
pounded on friendship, but it has re-
manned for Scarf Allen and Ed. How
ard to bring about the real and ac-
ceptable solution of the theory or
problem or whatever else friendship
may be. They have done this with a
little skit that is told in dialogue and
song, which is called GA Real Pal"
Mr.. Allen and Mr.. Howard are a vau-
deville team sufficiently we'll known
to stand on their past performances.
They have been responsible for many
a laugh epidemic and in their new
skit the contagion is even more in
fectious.
Prospects for a capacity house for
the opening of Keith's are very bright.
Already several society leaders have
made reservations for blocks of seats
and the Mayor and other Commits
%sioners with their wives will occupy
boxes.
