"THE RISE OK PKTK.It IIAHBAX"
Gtis Skinner in "The Rise of Peter
Karban" conies to the Orpheum The
ater. for one performance only. Moil
day evening. December 15.
"The Rise of Peter Barban" js a
"rand new comedy in a prologue and
three acts which will serve not only
to introduce Mr. Skinner in a new
ride, but also his wife. Mrs. Maud
Skinner, as a playwright, for it was
Mis. Skinner, who. in col la Violation
with Jules Kekert Goodman, wrote
the piece.
The story of the play has been
more or less of a secret, but It is
known that the scene of the prologue
is laid in a courthouse in a small
town in Western Pennsylvania and
|hat the scenes of the succeeding
three acts are all in or about Peter
Barbon's home in California. It is
known, too. that the story told by the
play is intensely dramatic and has to
do with the passionate love of an
Italian father for his daughter and
Ids self-sacrificing devotion to her. it
is this Italian father whom Mr.
Skinner impersonates and. as may be
imagined the character is another of
those romantic, highly colored tiglires
that the popular actor draws so skill
fully and so delightfully.
The play lends itself so picturesque
scenic investiture and of this oppor
tunity Charles Frohmun. inc.. have
taken lull advantage. They have
also organized a specially line com
pany to appear witli Mr. skinner. One
very important role will be played by
O. P>. Clarence, a noted English actor,
who has come to America for the first
time in many years just to play this
piece. Another lending member of
the cast is Mary Shaw, one of the
most talented actresses on the
American stage. Others who have im
portant parts are Ruth Rose. Winona
iiennison. Thurlow Bergen. Robert
Ames. William Bonelli, J. T. Chalice
and Walter F. Scott.

Kittle Girl in a Big City." will be seen

Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
of next week.
It .is a story of New Y'ork life and
recites the experiences of til young
country girl who goes to the great
metropolis in sciy-cli of employment.
The play Is said to teach a great les
son Hnd is one that should be seen by
