Lew Dockstader Has
New Mirthful MonolOgue.

An average bill greeted vaudeville
patrons last night. Dancing, mono
logy. singing, chatter and an unusual
novelty act made up n varied pro-
gram.
Griff and his baby doll opened the
act There have been jugglers who
used knives, Indian clubs and even
furniture and pianos, but IL remained
for Grin to use soap bubbles. He and
his mannikin balanced the airy
nothings in most skillful manner.
Nelson and Cronin offer number
OF songs In rather approved fashion.
One OF the boys gave a very apropos
impersonation of Charlottee Green
wood in one of her latest songs.
The Lovenberg sisters and Slime
Neary had an act that combined
singing with clever rope-handling by
Neary. and some above-the-average
clog dancing by the sisters.
Lew Dockstader was not billed as
the featured star Of tho evening.
Dockstader was not perturbed by this,
but was in the position of the Scotch
man, who, though a guest OF honor
at a banquet, was given an inferior
seat, but silenced the hosts apologies
with the remark that wherever he
sat was the head OF the tabie- What-
ever the place Lew occupied the head
OF the bill, and easily captured the
honors, with the audience decisively
judging him the leader. Lew very
modestly offered himself as candidate
for the Presidency. He INDUCED in
some pertinent remarks anent the
other candidates, then offered his
platform. He could have been elect
ed easily IL the audience had the de-
Gliding vote at the polls last night.
Mabel McCane offered revue In
which she sang and danced, and wore
pretty gowns. She Is assisted by a
pair of dancers who are first rivals
of the original, well known "Terp."
Lillian Broderick danced with airy,
easy grace. and was mighty easy to
look at.

THE CAST.

The story is OF Rodney Sturgis and
his Chinese princess wife. Rodney.
an outcast in China, had been picked
up and returned to maphod, by the
princess, whom he had married.
Bringing her back to America. Rod
ney fnds his wife a doll for his
American friends and family to laugh
at. He cannot overcome the prejudice
of1 his relatives and all seems dark
tragedy. The action moves rapidly
toward a climax which presupposes
suicide and one of those earnestly
Stunned sad endings.
But at the last moment. Rodney
realizes the Inevitable outcome OF
matters as they are progressing, and
bitterly berating the vampirish for
mer sweetheart who has labored in-
dustriously TO make him dissatisfied
with his Chinese wife, he decided to
return to China. and live with his
wife in the happiness which the
civilized" world refuses them.
The outline of the story does not
convey an idea of the effective situa-
tions with which the plot is worked
out. But II was evident from the
manifest enjoyment with which last
nights audience. greeted THE I'm
wanted One" that the play struck
popular fancy.
The well-chosen cast has Madeline
Delmar in the role OF the Chinese
bride---a role which she invests with
a delicate charm that endeared heI
at once to the hearts OF the audi
ence. In the role OF Rodney Sturgii
was seen Forrest Winant, last seen
here in "Bucking the Tiger youns

Justly popular with Washington
theatergoers.

FORMER Garrick stock favorite,

sister and the mother of Rodney. re-
spectively. Their work in exacting
parts left little to be desired.
The remainder OF the cast, well
chosen, presented an even. finished
performance that did much to make
"The Unwanted One" as delightful

NOON CONCERTS
BY NASH BAND

AS means Of furnishing its employ
ees with high class entertainment dur
ing the luncheon period, the Nash Mo-
tors Company has engaged the Nash
Band to furnish series Of noon band
concerts in its factory restaurant and
recreation rooms. The first of this SER
les was given today, with rendition
of the following program:
March, Honey Boys on Parade"
Cupero. 2-Overture, "Morning, Noon
and Night in Vienna" Supp6. 3-(a)
"I Know What it Means to be Lone
some," Kendis, (b) "When the Preach
er Makes You Nine Donaldson; F. J.
" Fuzzy Adkins, vocalist. 4-March,
Wagner" Troutman.
F. J. "Fuzzy" Adkins, Chicago cab
aret singer, who has recently become
associated as vocalist with the Nash
musical organization, has now been
over eighteen consecutive years before
the public, always most popular as an
exponent Of the most popular hits.
Countless audiences have given him re-
peated recognition on the merits of his
artistic and natural accomplishments,
and the splendid execution of his rich
baritone voice.
The recent development and high
standard obtained by the Nash Band
is primarily due to the unusually pains
taking and enterprising leadership of
its conductor, Fl. L. Booth, but it is
also due to the unusually high standard
of musicianship among the members.
Many Of the players have a wide ex-
perience after playing with some of
the best and most highly recognized
band organizations in this country and
abroad, while others have recently been
released from military duties after hav-
ing served with distinction with some
Of Uncle Sam s leading military bands.
