What burlesque patrons declare the
best show of the present season was
presented at the Capitol Theater yes
terday afternoon by the Follies of New
York company, with Mysterious Mr..
Raffles and company as an extra
added attraction Written especially
for Fred Binder and Sadie Banks, it
abounds with pretty girls, clean
comedy and bright, snappy musical
and dancing numbers. Fred Binder,
Lew Lederer and Sadie Banks are
the chief funmakers of the company,
and they manage to keep the audience
in laughter throughout. Others in the
cast include Wallace Jackson, Carol
Ca rey, Mae Kelley, Al Turpie and
Murray Welsh. In addition there is
beauty ensemble of twenty pretty
young girls.
Mr.. Raffles completely mystifies the
audience with his craftsman act, in
which he opens a safe by the sense
of touch in full view of the audience
He also escapes from a straight jacket
in less than thirty seconds.

of theatergoers as the immortal story
Of Scotch village life and romance In
which Maude Adams achieved such

thusiasts when THE Little Minister"
with the demure and fetching Betty
Compson in the chief role, was pre-
scented for the first time in Washing
ton yesterday as the holiday-week at
traction at Loew's Palace Theater.
"The Little Minister" is the story
Of q conflict between the weavers of
the Scotch village of Thrums and their
masters over an economic question. A
mysterious gypsy girl is one Of the
moving spirits in the weavers' fight
for better working conditions, and 1t
Is largely through her influence that
the little minister Of the village, God
fearing but highly partisan man of the
people, takes an even more active part
in the affair than he might otherwise
have taken. The origin, destination.
and antecedents of this gypsy girl are
matters OF equal mystery, and though
the little minister fights hard against
the love for her that he feels rising
within him, 1t Is not long until the
people of his parish are thinking
things about the two that is none too
good for his ministerial position.
Eventually, when the girls activities
on behalf of the weavers involve her
in q conflict with the law, 1t is the
little minister who, to save her, gives
out to the officers that she IL his wife.
Unwittingly, the common law inter
venes and he learns to his shocked but
not altogether unhappy surprise that
his statement makes her his wife to
all intents and purposes, and that she
In not half so unhappy as one might
expect to find her.
The gypsy strain In her blood, how
ever is the thing gthat mostly worries
the minister until he discovers that

local aristocrat who found her aristo-
cratic life too dull to be endured and
who, out of love for the minister him.

Director Stanlaws has been highly

Wished by erecting replica Of the

THE CAST.

Helen Hayes, Washington's own
star, Is delightfully."- cast in Golden
Days" and what last nights holiday
audience at the National lacked in
numbers was atoned for in the
heartiness of the reception accorded
her at each curtain. True, Golden
Days" with its modernization of the
Cinderella theme, is by no means
wonder vehicle, yet 1t Is filled with
such a measure of charm that 1t will
more than satisfy those who are not
too exacting, and certainly provides
for the elf-like Miss Hayes ample OPP
portunities in a role virtually made
to her order.
1t is q story Of small town Jeal-
ousies in which Miss Hayes, as Mary
Anne Simmonds, finds herself the
victim Of snobbery. which extends
even to Billy Barclay. her childhood
sweetheart. now the son of the
towns richest man. Just as in Gin
derclla," there is q ball and Mary
Anne is not invited, principally be-
cause her mother keeps tea room.
Then comes on the scene Mrs. Kirk
land. q wealthy aunt of the girls,
who has neither chick nor child"
and is determined that Mary Anne
shall go to the ball under the escort
Of Dick Stanhope, one Of the most
desirable Of New York's young
elig ,bles.
The plan succeeds admirably and
Billy Barclay falls victim to Mary
Anne's charm and is madly jealous
when Stanhope insists on monupoliz-
Ing her attention. AS might be mag
lined, however. the latter is truly
smitten and eventually claims Mary
Anne for his own.
Helen Hayes gives to the role
full measure of those fascinating
qualities that distinguished her work
in. ''Bab," although there are Occa-
sional hints Of her ability to attain
greater heights in more serious We
hicles. To many of her admirers 1t
does not require any great powers
of imagination to picture her some
day as q fitting successor to the
powers Of the great Maude Adams.
Every member Of the supporting
cast contributes an excellent charac-
terization. Donald Gallaher, as Dick
Stanhope, 10 q most engaging hero.
and Robert Fiske is thoroughly ca
pable as the jealous boyhood lover.
Excellent comedy relief is furnished
by 10 Wallace and Florence Earle.
