hOCOLATE SOLDIER
AGAIN ACCLAIMED HERE
'Tunefulness Of Straus operetta
Wins Over Audience Which
Was Cold at First Act

1.yric-Whcn an audience that had
been strangely cold and silent appeared
TO become suddenly cheering bcdlan
as the last strains of the ensemble repc-
itition of MY Hero" died away. the
Z success of the revival Of Oscar Strnus
Beautiful Chocolate Soldier was ap-
parent.
It has been q long time since q musi
cal attraction has had so positive O
manifestation of appreciation as that
which raincd down upon the assembled
company and kept the smokers in their
seats for many minutes after the logical
ending of the second act.
However. even banishing for the mo
mciit thoughts of this only too evident
triumph of the operctta's biggest song
hit. the credit side of the present re-
vival is lengthy and the debit column
negligible.
First land really foremost. strange rs
that may bc) there was Donald Brian.
no longer the handsome dancer and idol
OF former musical comedy days. but a
very definite and pcrsonable comedian.
voice n little weak to be sure. but carry.
ing off the amusing Lieutenant Bum.
herli role as few light opera stars could
have begun to do. dancing occasionally
to show he hasn't forgotten how and
putting real zcst aud appeal into the
Letter Duet and the Goat Song.
Second in Importance was n large
chorus which was as fine n collective
singing unit as n musical comedy has
shown here in years. Small wonder that
n stirring march was intcrpolatcd at tho
second act for them.
Virginia O'Bricn. singing tho difficult
role of Nadipa. acquitted herself with
the greatest of credit. Though her voice
lacks sympathy and contains n rather
unattractive hardness, her personality
is SO winning and her acting 50 sincere
that she captures the audience anyway.
Another outstanding member Of the
cast is John Humbird Duffcy, singing
the Major Alexius part with rs much
spirit and as good voice as it ever
knew in the original prod ductions. Det-
man Poppen made n distinctly Hop
per- esque' and very amusing person
out of General Massakrof. Mildred
Rogers. as Aurclia. and Rhoda Nickclls
also deserve mention, the last named
being especially praiseworthy in her
Failing in Love" duet with Duffcy in
the last act
The humor is, in spots. bit wcari-
some, but it is to the credit Of the Shu-
berts and to all those connected with
the revival that, except in two or three
cases, no modernisms. have been intro
duced. 1t remains what It always was.
a satiric comedy with music. Whereas
in 'Thc Merry Widow the romance
was all in deadly earnest, here Brian
makes love with wink. and every
thing is done with tongue in the
cheek.
II a rather disappointingly small
house became 80 demonstrative over that
second act finale, there Is reason to hope
that succeeding audiences will find equal
pleasure in the beauties Of many of the
other musical numbers which fill the
Operetta.

THOMPSON GETS
$2,OOOPAY FOR
HIS DISABILITY
Government Acts in Case of
Man Returned Here From
California.

A check for $1,000 has been received
by Theodore Thompson of Great Falls
for back compensation through the
efforts of the American Red Cross Of
this city, according to Mrs. Harriet
Carrier, executive secretary. This is
approximately at the rate of $50 a
month.
Thompson is now confined In the
state insane asylum at Warm Springs
and the money has been sent TO his
guardian, 10y j. Molumby, state COM
mander of the American Legion.
Thompson enlisted in the army
March -, 1918 at Sidney, Mont. and
was discharged January 2, 1919, at
stationed during the entire time of his
service. He was a private in the 1853
depot brigade of company 81, battalion.
IL.
Five days after his discharge, Thomp-
son came to the Great Falls office of
the Red Cross and asked for compen-
sation. At that time he showed signs
of mental trouble and was given a job
on a ranch while his affidavits were be-
ing made out and his case completed.
He was unable to do any kind of
work on the ranch, probably because
of heart trouble, which. it is said, was
contracted during service.
He left Montana Unexpectedly and
was arrested in San Francisco not
long after as a vagrant and confined
in the California state insane asrlum
at Napa. He was released from there
about a year and a half later and sent
to Great Falls under care of an at
tendant, who failed to deliver him 10
the sheriff of Cascade county. They
returned him to this city because of
letters they found in his clothing.
which gave an old address.
Thompson Is IS years old and II Is
believed that his former home was IN
