and produced one of his discoveries. It
Is 'The Lilac Domino" of Charles CuvU
Her. and the audience at the Lyric last
night had reason to bless both composer
and Impresario. "The Lilac Domino" has
charming music to balance against n
passable libretto, and It has a cast and
a production that mako up for any dis
crepancies among tho D. Smith Brothers.

lose seconds. All three havo left tho
cast, and Mr. Dlppel has replaced them
Miss Painter twice with singers hardly
less acceptable.
In'Amparlto Farrar he found a suc
cessor to Miss Detllng who not only sings
prettily Rnd wears the only good-looking
forehead fillet on record, but who la an
utterly charming personality, fresh, ca
pricious and beautiful. As the principal
male singer ho has found a sort of second
Arthur Aldridgc, of Gilbert and Sullivan
memory. Mr. Duftey sings as well as Mr.
Aldrldge, he acts quite a little better, but
he has that same choir singer air. The
rest of the cast fill In nicely and ex
pertly, -wlille the chorus sings as well as
It dances and the whole thing runs oft
smoothly and expertly, even down to the
fluent Mr. Boder, who conducts the fluent
music of Mr. Cuvllller quite as much with
his fluent hair as with his baton.
The music is, after all, the main thing.
The "book" Is no more than inoffensive,
the old tale of the Impecunious nobleman
falling In lovo with a disguised lady, who
turns out to be the heiress whom he
has to marry to recoup his fortunes. But
In most places It Is more amusing than
"The Princess uPat," and It all goes oft
with the air ft "knowing its place" and
keeping It. But the music!
What an endless variety there Is to
these Continental composers! Spirit,
'bravado, tenderness, passion, humor, ro
mance. When they don't excel in some
one of these they excel in nll.Like Mr.
Cuvllller, they all know the" art they
practice. Like Mr. Cuvllller, they can
build long sustained lyrlo scenes that rise
to tho finale's climax only after they
have characterized .personages and ad
vanced the plot. Like Mr. Cuvllller, they
have an Infinite variety of rhythm at their
command, arid they can put moro than
a couple of kinds of it into the chorus
of any song they may write. Like Mr.
Cuvllller, they can take lilting songs,
such as "Let the Music. Play" and "The
Lllao Domino," and weave them In and
out through the succeeding scenes. And,
like Mr. Cuvllller, they are always as
dramatic as they are fresh, charming and
muslclanly. K. M.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. 28.-The
sale of "Barnay's," one of the biggest

local syndicate has revised downward tho
absurdjormer $2 rate and on the program
advertises a Wednesday matinee with bcBt
seats quoted at JL The public has yearned
for high-grade productions at a reason
able admission fee; hero Is tho chance to
patronize a good, though not an abso
lutely novel, one at figures ranging from
BO cents to $1.50, surely not prohibitive.
Tho test, of course. Is yet to come; the
good faith of the management will bo
Judged by tho quality of later attractions,
new here.
Tho 1915 trado samples, which women
will revel In, do not exhaust the novelties
of the current showing of "Potash and
Perlmuttcr." The cast Is not only almost
entirely different fronthat seen here last
year, but consists or players, with an
occasional exception, totally new to our
theatre-goers. And they get away with
It in fine shapo; we will want to Beo
anore of them. They do good work In
sketching or suggestlngharactcr, while
they confirm tho reviewer's oplnlpn of
last season that the valuo of tho late
Charles Klein's stage transcript of Mon
tague Glass' celebrated Saturday Evening
Post stories lay deeper than drolleries of
dlaloguo or eccentricities of action: that
It came directly from the humanity of
Mr. Glass creations.
The piece is actor-proof as far as
"laugh-getting" goes, but when the char
acterization Is good tho cardiac, as well
as rlsorial, muscles are touched. Julius
Tannen and Julian "Rose, vaudeville top
liners as Yiddish Impersonators, could
convey the fundamental simplicity of the
cloak merchants through tho Oriental
guile which overlaid their creations.
Last night their successors aB Abe and
Mawruss, Phil "White and Harry First,
more than once reached the heart. They
drew laughter to misty eyes. That Is
their tribute.
Of their associates. Jane Fernloy, Har
riet Gustln and Maurice Barrett were
capital.
"Sunnybrook Farm"
on "Walnut -Stage
Passing seasons do not Btale the bu
collo freshness of "Rebecca of Sunny
brook Farm." as dramatized from Kate
Douglas AVIggins' story by tho author
and Charlotte Thompson, and frequent
repetition of the role has not withered
the fine, fragrant flowering of Edith Tal
iaferro's impersonation of the ingenuous
ond precise New England maiden of the
title.
The perennial quality of the piece was
redlsclosed last night at the Walnut,
where the capable resident players sup
ported the creator of Rebecca In a very
good presentation of the acted narrative
of Rebecca's girlhood. Miss Taliaferro
characterized the little girl who comes to
tho august Brick House with many a,
deft girlish touch, and sounded a deeper,
more wistful noto of budding romance
when her heroine
"Stood with reluctant feet
Where the brook and river meet,"
In the transition to maidenhood.
Earle Brown was a likeable Mr. Alad
din for tho other party of the romance
that came Into Rebecca's life. Bernard
Steele genially ponrayea xno jieariy
stage driver, Jeremiah Cobb, and Maud
Blair and Mary Stewart Smith gave ade
quate characterizations of the typical
New England aunts.

"Little Lost Sister"
The woes of a poor little country maid,
lured from tho peaceful quiet of her vil
lage life to the white light district of tho
great and wicked city, through the machi
nations of a polished villain of the "white
slave" type, worn followed with sympa
thetic Interest by a large audience at the
Knickerbocker. Virtue's triumph over
vice, after a hard and at times doubtful
struggle, was witnessed with undisguised
satisfaction, and when the "Little Lost
Sister" returns nome at mat, umntn
spirit but beloved as of yore by her suf
fering mother, devoted and virtuous sis
ter and everybody else In the cast except
trie cruel men who have brought her dan
gerously close to the brink of ruin, a
wave of satisfaction swept over the house.
Virginia Brooks' white slave play has
been seen here before, but the tense situ
ations In which the first three acts abound
have not been more deftly handled than
h. r hv tha Knickerbocker Players.

ThU week It is Ireland Instead of Ger

entertainment at the People's. Pat White
appears at the Kensington house In
"Casey in Society," a musical comedy In
two acts and four scenes, with plenty

Keith's
It's flfty-flfty between David Blspham
and Julinn Rose for honors at Keith's
this week. Mr. Blspham received an
ovation from those who liked music with
a dash of drama and Mr. Rose undoubt
edly broke the laugh record.
It was very evident that many muslo
lovers who admired his work on the con
cert stage followed Mr. Blsphnm Into
vaudeville. Tho mere announcement of
his selection brought applause, die did
not resort to the old "stand-bys," whlchH
concert singers usually dole out, but
gave a program of choice variety. There
was an Italian lovo song for tho romanti
cally Inclined, n vigorous and snappy
number, "The Dancing Master," for
thoso who llko quick rhythm; a banjo
song and "Danny Deevcr," by request.
The last mentioned brought tho versatile
baritone's act to n closo with prolonged
applause which "stopped tho show."
It was then up to Mr. Rose to turn the
thoughts of the audlenco toward comedy
and he did. He let those present In on
some confidential matters regarding
Levlnsky's wedding. Ho told In detail
not onlyfthe dresses which wero pres
ent and not present, but also described
tho vegetables used at the wedding feast.
Ho made It vory plain that a cowardly
tomato Is one that hits you In the-, back
and runs, and gave some good advice
concerning the kind of clothes to wear
when eating certain kinds of food. He
especially recommended that a careless
man should wear a dark brown vest when
spooning with the gravy.
Wilson Mizner, author of "Tho Deep
Purple" and other successful plays, pre
sented "Ships That Pass In the Night." a
tabloid pollco drama. The story Is told
by six characters well portrayed. Lillian
Dllworth, as a derelict, and John W. Lott.
as a society man of humane instincts, are
worthy of special mention.
The offering scintillates with wit and
many of tho lines are little sermons on
real life worth remembering. The play
let was well received. .
Other acts Included McWatters and
Tyson In "A Revue of Revues," Llghtner
Sisters and Alexander, the Six American
Dancers, Jack and Torls, Goldsmith and
Hoffe and Robert Everett's Novelty
Circus.
The latest news events were shown on
the pictures.
Here and There
American
Evidence that vaudeville Is retaining
its popularity Is shown by the opening
of the American TheatreFranklln street
and Glrard avenue, lastv night by Mc
Gurk & Sablosky. This amusement firm
has a chain of vaudeville houses through
out the State, which includes the Globo
and Cross Keys In this city.
The opening show at the American was
up to tho minute in the way of present
day Ideas. Joe Hortlz, in "Go the Other
Way," was the headllner. He was sup
ported by a capable cast and the sketch
was greatly appreciated. Others on the
bill were the Moscrop Sisters, the Black
and White Minstrels, Hill and Hackett
and Elvln and Kenny. By way of con
trast there were exceptionally good pic
tures. Allegheny
Eugenie Blair, the well-known emo
tional actress, appears to advantage In
"The Reckoning Day," a gripping drama
which heads the bill at Keith's Allegheny
Theatre. The little playlet unfolds an
Interesting story well told by the star
and supporting cast.
The rest of the. show was In keeping
with the feature. Al Herman upheld his
reputation as a laugh getter and others
who pleased were Warren and Conly.
Artots Brothers, Dale and Boyle
Gallon.
By the Photoplay Editor
It Isn't easy to make Uncle Sam do
your advertising for you even It he will
lend his navy to nny company that wants
to do a martial photoplay, but the Balboa
Company Is making the best of a post
otllce accident. Half of thftt accident
Is the color of the one-cent stamps. Like
all tho Balboa typewriting and press
work, It Is a bright green. Hence the
Balboa offices always send out their let
ters with two one-cent stamps Instead of
a two on them. Tho other half of the
accident Is that the one-cent stamp of
the Panama-Pacific special Issue Is not
only green but carries the likeness of
Balboa, the famous explorer, after whom
the film company was named. Balboa has
applied to Postmaster General Burleson
to reserve for It h million of them, for
they are to be discontinued the end of
the year. To mnke sure of a supply, the
million lot will be contracted for.
Douglas Fairbanks' second photoplay
for tho Triangle will be "Double Trouble."
It will employ the city Are department,
police and municipal band of Santa Ana,
California.
The Essanay people probably moved

formance In Griffith's film made from
Toe's tales, "The Avenging Conscience"
will next present that premier photo
play actor In a six-part plcturlzatlon of

The recuperative powers and efficient
organization of the Famous rinyers Film
Company could not have been better
demonstrated than by the phenomenal
rnpldlty with which nctual production of
Alms was esumed after the disastrous
tire.
Immediately upon receipt of the news
of the fire tho ofllclals of tho company
rdshed to the scene of the blazo and as
soon as It was definitely assured that
tho building was doomed, the reassem
bling of the principal stars of tho or
ganization was effected, together with
their respective supporting casts, for
tho purpose of beginning the production
of new features to tcplace the negatives
Injured or destroyed. As a result of the
raldlty with which tho directors worked,
scenes wero actually taken on Monday
morning and on Tuesday live produc
tions wero under way.
"Tho White Pearl." In which Marie
Doro was featured, having been one of
tho negatives partially destroyed, Ed
win S. Porter and Hugh Ford at once
began the redlining of the lost scenes.
Mnry Plckford at the same tlmo began
work on an elaborate fllmlzatlon of John
Luther Long's "Madamo Butterfly." Tho
film Is being made under the direction of
Sidney Olcott, and will be staged In
America's greatest Japanese gardens.
Hazel Dawn, who Is to bo starred In
tho adaptation of Henry Arthur Jones'
"Tho Masqueraders," Is already at work
on this subject. Marguerite Clark Is
busily engaged as tho Btar of "Still
Waters," and John Barrymoro Is star

famous musical comedy by Channlng
Pollock and Rennold Wolf. "The Red
Widow."
Appeal to Revoke Decision on Ticket
Privilege Denied
The Public Service Commission In Har
rtsburg has handed down a decision to
tho effect that one-way passenger tickets
on railroads within the State shall be
good In either direction. Tho decision
denies an appeal made by a number of
railroad companies against the decision
of July 22, when the same order was
made.
After the riling of July a a number
of the railroads appealed for a revoca
tion of the order, which was to go Into
effect on September 1. The commission
reconsidered the case, and with Its new
order October 1 was set as the date on
which the original decision will become
effective.
