“THE THREE MUSKETEERS”
AT NIXON IN PITTSBURGH.
Florenz Ziegfeld’s Sensational Musi-
cal Interpretation of the Du-
mas Classic in Pittsburgh
Next Week.
The mere announcement that Flor-
enz Ziegfeld will present one of his
famous attractions at the Nixon
Theatre is sufficient to pack the fa-
mous Pittsburgh playhouseto the
doors. So great things are expected
next week, beginning Monday, Janu-
ary 28th, for Mr. Ziegfeld’s own fav-
orite, “The Three Musketeers,” with
Dennis King in the star role, will be
the unusual attraction. After 46
record-breaking weeks on Broadway
this glorious musical comedy romance
‘now goes there with the famous New
Emends Saad, Souvenir, J. 1 | York cast and production intact.
’ . 3 4
As “Rosalie” differed from “Show
boat,” “Rio Rita” or “Whoopee,” “The
Three Musketeers” differs from the
other big Ziegfeld hits. It is a gor-
geous, swashbuckling operetta of the
i time of Louis XIII, a modernized ver-
i sion by Wm.
Searfoss and John W. Krumrine. The |
Anthony McGuire of
Dumas’ celebrated classic and fairly
; brimming over with lilting melodies
land stirring choruses as only Rudolf
Friml can compose them.
The cast is one of the most brilliant
- i ever assembled for a Ziegfeld produc-
i tion.
{as D’Artagnan of Gascony—‘‘the fin-
i est swordsman and the greatest lover
In the star role is Dennis King
in all France.” Local theatre and
music lovers will welcome the chance
to see this great and talented young
star who has so captured the hearts
of New York and Chicago. It will be
recalled that he created the title role
in the original New York company of
“The Vagabond King,”—a role he
played only on Broadway and in
Chicago. He was kept on Broadway so
long that road companies were sent
on tour with others in the role he
created.
But. as theatre-goers are aware, it
is different with Ziegfeld productions.
There are no No. 2 road companies,
and those at the Nixon next week will
have their first opportunity to see
Dennis King and the entire company
just as this glorious musical was pre-
sented for 46 weeks at the Lyric
theatre in New York city.
No romantic story is better known
than that of D’Artagnan, Athos, Por-
thos and Aramis and their spirited
adventures. It remained for Florenz
Ziegfeld to transform it to the stage
and make visible all the color, the
bravery of costume and incident, the
rush of events, the high politics of
courts, the sword play, the flaming
loves and jealousies, the humor and
comedy, the flash and sparkle of life
in a high-spirited age and to saturate
all this in delightful music and dress
it with unfailing loveliness.
Then, there is not to be forgotten
the Albertina Rasch 16 solo dancers,
trained choruses, both male and fe-
male, glorified Ziegfeld beauties in
the ensembles, magnificent urban
scenery and gorgeous period costumes
and an orchestra of the first water.
Altogether, it promises to be one of
the outstanding weeks in the theatri-
cal history of that city. Special at:
tention will be paid to mail orders
from out-of-town patrons when ae-
companied by check or money order
and self-addressed stamped envelope.
Full details will be found in the dra-
matic columns of the Sunday Pitts-
burgh papers.

One Good Trait That
Village Bad Man Had
The late Chauncey M. Depew wus
reproving a young critic one day for
u harsh criticism.
“rd like to see more of the Kin
Kincaid spirt in your work, my boy,”
the great man said.
“Kin Kincaid, you know, was noted
for hig charity and loving kindness.
Never a slanderous word passed his
tips.
“Well, the bad man of the village
died in due course, and they all roast-
ed him at the general store the after
noon of the funeral. They roasted him
hard. They pointed out that he was
a drunkard and a wiser, a wife beater
and a liar, a thief and a scandal-mon-
ger, a coward, a usurer and a rake.
“Kin Kincaid listened to all that
talk with a little smile of disapprov-
al, and finally the general storekecper
said to him:
“ ‘Now, Kin, don’t you look so hurt,
Ain’t everything wot’s been said about
that old cuss true? Can you name
one meritorious trait, jest one, that
he ever showed?
“Well; said Kin, ‘you boys’ll have '
to admit that he certainly had a good
appetite.’ ”

{ New Calendar’s Holidays for 1929.

1929 will black Friday—Friday the
13th, be encountered. These two un-
lucky dates occur in September and
December.
The main holidays of the year all
come in the middle of the week so
that there will be no double holidays

of the week and are made to include
Sunday.
The longest day of the year, June
21, falls on Friday and the shortest
day, December 21, falls on Saturday.
Jackson day, January 8, falls on
Tuesday.
Groundhog day, February 2, falls
on Saturday.
Lincoln’s birthday, February 12,
falls on Tuesday.
Washington’s birthday,
22, falls on Friday.
Good Friday comes on March 29.
Easter Sunday comes on March 31.

—At an International Congress of
Entomology held at Ithaca, N. Y., one
Dr. W. J. Baerg of Arkansas assured
the delegates that the bites of many
insects are not half so painful or
deadly as is commonly supposed. Ev-
en some scorpions were “really quite
harmless,” he explained—the effect of
their bite is largely “a mental illu-
sion.” This prompts one in The Man-
chester Guardian to write:
Observed a young man in confusion,
“Hi! Look at this lump (or contu-
sion);
I’ve been stung by a hornet!”
They said, “You should scorn it—
It’s only a mental illusion.”
