THE FREELY" WINS
NATIONAL AUDIENCE
Performance for Final Week
Proves Hit Of Season.
EXCELLENT CAST IS HEARD
Capital Theaters Offer Patrons
Varied Choice Of Amusement.

When the curtain dropped last
night on what was the grand finale
for FIRST nighters" OF the Aborn
Opera Company it probably brought
more genuine regret to patrons OF
the National Thester than the clos
ing Of any engagement at this popu-
lar playhouse this season.
While the previous light operas
which the Aborn players have pre-
scented here have won popular favor,
the success scored last night in The
FREELY was the crowning event to
an engagement that AbOrn patrons
regret to see end this week.
Winsome Maude Gray was excellent
in the roles of Naughty Marietta and
the Spring Maid, her two previous
biggest successes here. but she was
more captivating than ever last night
as Nina. the Italian street singer.
Her voice was heard to better ad-
vantage, and her spontaneous good
humor fairly intoxicated the audi
ence Through the different dis
guises OF the role she never failed
to live up to the highest expectation
of the part she played.
Inc T lEEllN dlloIuS MISS vi ~
perhaps a better opportunity for a
display Of histrionic talents than the
roles she has assumed before. She
was delightful as the Inundated and
detected Italian girl in the second
act. after her disguise had been dis
covered, and this situation alone serv-
ed to endear her to those who had
not seen her work before.
fe tra1I raef this WRek
as Jack" who springs to the de-
tense OF helpless Nina on all oc-
casions. His voice Is full and clear.
His acting is light-hearted and free.
His speech carries a natural ring.
Lillion Ludlow made a charming
maid. Her voice added punch to the
numbers in which she was heard,
and her dancing brought frequent
encores. Edna Temple sang Sym
PATTY" in a way that added the per-
sonal element to the song. Harlan
Briggs was a sprightly valet, Sylvia
Thorne was excellent in the role OF
the love-Etruck widow. and Charles
H Bowers was a hit as the SYM
pathetic uncle.
James McElhern provoked many a
laugh as the confidential secretary OF
the whole works. He sang in an inim-
table way "A Little Bug Is Going
To Get You Some Day that brought
numerous recalls.
George Shields was unusually well
cast as the aged composer. With
male concert of voices he scored a
hit singing a song OF bygone days.
Washington really will hate to say
su revoir TO the Aborn players. They
have provided rare entertainment,
and their return next season will be
eagerly welcomed. R N.

Loew's Columbia.

Some of the most effective and
beautifully staged scenes Fannie
Ward ever has been seen in are found
in Her Strange Wedding" which is
the attraction the first part OF the
week at Loew's Columbia. The story
relates to the marriage OF a beautiful
young girl to a depraved young man
whose vices include a yellow streak.

mania. As the story progresses 1t
pictures the unhappiness OF the young
wife. until finally the worthless huE-
band dies, leaving her a chance to
marry one worthy and thus bring the
picture to a pleasing ending.
Miss Ward IL a vision OF loneliness
in the series OF beautiful stage pic
lures. Jack Dean has an opportunity
to disclose more Of his apparently
Inexhaustible wardrobe. and Tom
Forman takes full advantage OF an
excellent role as the dissolute hus-
band.
A refreshing bit Of comedy Is
shown in the suburban oddly. Com

On several occasions we have no
ticed that Jewish junk dealers

metal and junk of small boys
This, under our laws is a misde-
meanor as the forbids of buying
old metal and junk of minors. The
reason for that is that the boys
would be prompted and perhaps
encouraged to steal metal parts of
machines for the purpose of OBJ
tanning a few pennies for it and
thus make thieves of them.

The show given here last Sun

the very large number of people
who came to see it. The play is
new and is very cleverly
written and the plot which is net

the audience in a high pitch of ex-
pectation rs to its probable out
come. The play is interspersed
with puzzling and comical situa-
tions which provoke applause and
merriment. Those who partici
pated in the play had their parts
we'll memorized and the monologs
and conversations went on very
smoothly. The mimicry also was

al impression made ihe hearers
wonder if those on the. stage are
not professional actors. We GER
