''Maytime,' NTessrs. Lea and J. J. ] Sh4bsrt's sensationally successful mus l teal play, will be the attraction at the !. Shubert Theatre, New Haven for a l weeks engagement starting Monday. | Matinees will be given on wednes- ! day, Friday and Saturday. the Friday rnatIuas having been arranged for l late last week when the terrific de- n1and for seats indicated packed houses at each performance. Orders have poured in at the Shubert theatre daily since the coming of the fanou play was announced several weeks ago, while a steady stream of play goeTs have besiesed the box-office of the popular New Haven playhouse since the sale opened last Monday, which indicates that "Maytime'' is to duplicate it's success in New York where it was seen for a year and three months.
 The cast to be seen in "7Naytime' during the coming engagement Is headed by Peggy Wood, William Nor ris and Melvin Stoked, who were seen during the metropolitan run, while among the original supporting players will be seen Maude OdeII, Rose Win ter, Teddy Webb Arthur Albro, Edna Temple, Douglas J. Wood, Nina Va Teri. Edward Nannery and others of well known ability.
 In many respects "NIa ytime'' is the most remarkable musical piece ever produced. one of the reasons being that 1t is so distinctly different from the usual musical entertainment that comparison is out of the question. In the first place there is a charming story that begins in 1S40 and by sra d. ual stages brings the players to the present age. In this wise the two young lovers first seen in @ darling old New York setting pledge their un- dying love. Fate Bepartes them and fifteen years later they come togeth- CT, but the girl is mari d., although she still loves her first sweetheart. Next they are seen in old age when their romance ends in q most gur- prising and happy manner. A must cal score of rare charm accompanies the spoken words of the play, the whole forming a most delightful the atrical offering.
 Theatregoers of this city who in- tend witnessing ''Laytime" will do we'll to secure seats as soon as pos sib1e,
