Alarums tne real opening of the dramatic season. Walker Whltrtda and 1 Ms fine company, will" come to' the Boyd Thursday for a stay of three nights and a Saturday matinee, offering what' has Wn declared the dramatic sensation of 'Europe, "The Typhoon," a play that has been received with equal favor m this -.id of the Atlantic. It Is the .work, of :an hitherto unknown Hungarian drama- t! t, Menyhert Lengyel, and. was pre tred for the American stage by, EmU vttray and Byron Ongley. The latter f.uve done- their work so well that they -are eatd to have retained every .atom -f the freshness and to have preserved ith remarkable fidelity the intense In. lerest ' of the Hungarian original. , . ; The history of "The Typhoon" in thia Vn'iniry has been, that of several aston 'Hhingly successful plays, since it was '.-fused by several prominent producing-sr.-wag ers, 5 who were ..frightened t at " its Vt range theme and the daring treatment t iit had been given it The manuscript ,un into the. hands of Mr. Whltside, ho at once saw in it a character en tirely new to the stage,' that of a young Jspaneae nobleman assigned by the Hkado to a diplomatic mission of great tmwHlanoe. Mr- Whiteside also recog ii"',ed the singular fascination of the -'.iry,,' its gripping . power and dlaeiml- r'ty to anything the American stage . -J Itttoan. He at once decided to pro C io it, . and .pon the concluBion' of his , t sou under the management of Iiebler 4. Co., presented "The Typhoon," after 3avl apient months' in its' preparation. The-story of the play In brief tells of ;the fesclnation - txerclsed by Illona'Ker Wr, a Berlin advanturees,' over Tokaramo, 't!; yy-z Japanese diplomatist He has "fs'en desperately ia love with', bar; rand bit p'irifrerea, fi;ring that the woman's ii.rsRi ' "Will ' distract ToUarama from I.

Their advice Is that another of their number take the blame for the mur der that their leader may finish his work f r Japan. 5 ''This is ' done and another V uth ; pays the. penalty . for - the crtma The artist Lindner suspects, that Toka ramo is really the guilty party, and some months afterward, when the diplomat has Just completed his work, wrings from him a .oonfeaslon. As Lindner is about to burn the papers upon which Tokarama ; has been at work, the latter's friends ; burst into the room in time to prevent their destruction. '' Tokaramo expires ot j heart failure, and the final soene of the remarkable drama shows the Japanese calmly collecting the papers of their dead leader, -' the while declaring their al legiance to Nippon. J v - - This Is but a hint of the powerful work that has created the widest discussion In Europe and America. Mr. Whiteside has evidently selected his company with great care.. Miss Florence Fisher, a young and beautiful actress is his Illona; among others who ' are well known here are Stephen Wright, , Hubert Wilka, ; M. J. Jordan. Grant Sherman, Harold Becker, Arda LaCrolx, Christopher Loach, Arthur Sprague, George Spelvin, William Wes ton and ' Made Shaw.
