' - - "The Clue Mouse" w(U be presented at the Uramlels theater by the Edward Lynch. Flayers for three days only, be ginning with the matinee this afternoon. Thsre will also be a matinee on Tuesday. "The Blue Mouse" was originally pro duced at the Uyrlo theater, New Tork, ud was the means of at once establish ing Mabel Harrison as a star, and placing Harry Conor In the position ho so long occupied, as a comedian of quaint meth ods. The story of the play Is: Augustus Tlollett, private secretary to President JUewetlyn of the Interstate railroad, de sires the position of division superinten dent. Mr. Llewellyn, being of en amor ous disposition, ltollett employs Pauline Devlne. known aa The Blue Mouso. the orUrinal Katotne dancer, to Impersonate Mis. Bollett and flirt with Mr. Uewollyn, to Involve that gentleman to the extent of making him promise to promote ltol lett to the position he coveted, lie also enlists the aid of Mrs. Iyewellyn, who wishes td catch her hual.snd'a friends' wives, especially the Blue Mouse. A suspicious father-in-law, and ltullett's real wife (taken for the dancer), the ftilue Mouse's fiance, her stage mother, Liisie," , and various other characters mingle In complications that reault from the situation here set forth. The action takes place at the offices of the railroad company, the isiue Mouse's apartments nd the home of Rollett. The second act Is especially funny and lively, with an advertising auction of the Blue Mouse's effects The third act has for a feature the Rue Mouse's predleament when she can get no one "to hook her up" at a time when "hooking up" Is imperative. It baa not a reatful moment, nor Is there any relief from laughter. Miss UcQrane will have the title role of "The Blue Xlotee." and Mr. Lynch will have another excellent llht comtdy part The other Important psrte will be played by Mlse Dale, Miss Ltewar.'Mlas Lowe.
