It is Avith great regret that Ave are compelled to call the
attention of tho people of Philadelphia to a misrepresentation which apparently
is being promoted by unscrupulous persone who, for selfish reasons of their
own, oppose an enterprise which seems to conflict with their own interests.
These persons have apparently circulated a malicious and
untruthful statement which seems to have obtained widespread credence in
Philadelphia nnd vicinity. That it is a business trick of our enemies can
scarcely be doubted.
This report, Avhich we take this means of publicly denying
as a piece of unwarranted misrepresentation, is that the big spectacle of "Tho
Wanderer." to be presented at the Metropolitan Opera House, beginning next
Thursday night, is a MOVING PICTURE.
We desire to emphasize in this announcement that "The Wan
derer" most certainly is NOT a moving picture.
It is the biggest and most spectacular drama seen on the
American stage in this day and generation. It is acted by a company of more
than 200 living people, among them soma of tho greatest artists known to the
dramatic stage. It has been staged on a scale of wonderful magnificence by tho
greatest atage producer of this period, DAVID BELASCO, who contributed his
services as a labor of love for a great play.
We appeal to the great public of Philadelphia to tell all of their
friends who may not see this announcement that "The AVanderer" is NOT a
moving picture, thereby foiling the schemes of these unscrupulous enemies.
Wo rpnni "The Wanderer" is NOT a Moving Picture. We
thank you sincerely. - CASINO T'i.
