RACHMIANIN0FF TO PLAY HERE
 NEXT SUNDAY
Ticket Sale Proceeding Briskly For Recital At Palace Theatre Sunday Afternoon.

Sale of tickets is proceeding brislIly at Steinert's for the recital by Sergei Rachmaninoff, the brilliant Russian pianist, at Poli's New Palace theatre, Sunday afternoon next, Nov- 19.
 Music lovers have long been ia 1niliar with the quality of the great composers contributions to the world of music. Next Sunday they will have master face to face. It does not realize his true greatness. Lovers of music gather to see and hear a comp oser of great fame and they de part with the conviction that they have heard one of the greatest, if not the greatest, pianists of our time. The soul of a great poet, delivering itself of beautiful thoughts, it is a rare musical personality that catches and holds them in it's grasp.
 As a pianist Rachmaninoff does not need to rest on his laurels as a com poser, for he belongs to that exalted company known as master -pianists. He has a command of tone color and nuance few possess, and careses from but above all and through all it is Rachmaninof. the poet, that speaks.
 Every selection impresseS the list ener with the thorough assfmila tion of every note the composer wrote. Ii is all completely absorbed, recreated and appears to be something delight fully spontaneous and new. Lesser art ists attempt this and the result is known as temperament. Rachman- inoff does it and the result is pure poetry.

Park Review


 There are many female imperson- ators, but only one Julian Eltinge and he is the peer of them all He may be a trif1e stouter, yet it makes little difference when arrayed in the gor- geOus ralment that the feminine sex have access to. Eltinge did have gorgeous raiment and plenty of it and the audience at the Park theatre last proval by the audible chs! and ahs! His art has matured, there is a sure ness of touch and a finish to his act ing that would please the most ex- acting. Whatever has been said of his voice there is one thing certain and that is the possession of a melo- dious- cadence that admirably fitted the Hitting tunes provided by an ex- ceIlent score.
 Raymond Fubbell has supplied a number of songs that will be renern- bercd and whistled for a long time to come, principally "Star Land Bunga- low "Iu Break the Hearts of the Men Who Break the Banks of Monte Carlo A Tune Like You The Vivandier." "Fascination.'' "Cute Lit tie Beaut from Butte, Montana" and ''Vionn and Cello"

 Oliver Smith. as sheik, has a splendid voice and rendered Come to Araby' with telling effect Iii. -idently he was an amorous sheik to the life, that is as we sup ose a sheik should be, we never met one.
 The remainder of the cast added materially to this amusing story fur nished by Glen NTcDonough.
