each gives a fine chance for the actor.
.Miss l&ng will have 11 role thut will call
for serious attention, and Mr. Nolan will
bo seen In a part that will give him much
better opportunity tluin no has yet had.
Mr. Woodward has glveit his personal at
tention to the preparation of the play,
and It will he presented with great atten
tion to detnll. The first performance will
be at the matinee on Sunday afternoon,
and It will run all week, with aditlonal
umtlnres on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
"Hk-ky In Politics," a sequel to "ThP

ful and hannv-ao-luekv characters In the
latter piece Is the title of the new nuisi- '
cal farce comedy which Henry I. Dixon's
"Hlg Review company" will present ut
tho Krug theater, commencing Sunday
matinee. Frankle Heath, one, of the
cleverest young women on the Ftage to
day, will appear as Glorlanna, the
stranded prima donna, while Harry l.e
Van, tho midget comedian, will play the !
role of Hlcky McGee. There are new j
songs, new music, new reviews, new 1
travesties, new faces and novelties. Even
the fun and Jokes are new If such a, thing :
were possible In this era of progressive;
theatrical. And It, certainly Is as far
us this show Is concerned. But all the
glowing prospectuses In the world would
not help to crowd the Krug theater If tho
ftindation were lucking. A visit will suf
fice and If we miss our guess this popu
lar company will play tho banner engage
ment of tho season. There will be tho
usual dally matinees with the added at
traction of beautiful souvenirs to the
women at the dally dime matinees.
Those fond of extravaganza will
thoroughly enjoy Huitig and Scamon's
