' V.: Robert Edeson, whose success in his latest Vhicie,?"Srr6hgheart," for the past two seasons has been acclaimed one of the greatest on the American Stage make hi visit here next Mon day and hi appearance will be one of the very Important events of the season. Mr. Henry B. Harris will pre sent Mr. Edeson in this play, which 1 one of American college life,, by Wil liam C, DeMllle, In which this popu lar star has added very materially ro his artistic repute, to say nothing of the lucrative gain which Is said to have amounted to a very large for tune since the premier of the play something over two years ago. Mr. Edeson, who has, since his ad vance to stellar roles, been Identified with plays ot an American character, has this time aelected a type never befor utilized for stage purposes that of an educated Indian, who, un der the influences of close contact with clvllazatlon, has deHlred to marry the woman not of his race and while he has figured largely In the news o the day, up to the present time the stage has not pictured it. Mr. DeMllle has been fortunate in the choice of his themo and equally felicitous In the selection of the back ground against which to relate his story. Columbia University is the locale and his scenes picture events on and during the big football game of the season. His leading character, "Strongheart," Is a full-blooded In dian, the son of a mighty chief. His tribe, appreciating the value of the white man's civilisation, seryds him to Carlisle and later to Columbia Uni versity, where he soon becomes a lead er In their sports and a general fav orite. On the eve of the great foot ball game, an act of treachery fastens upon the Indian. The "prejudice of the centuries," then aroused, becomes bitter animosity, even when Strong-1 heart proves his Innocence, for he then reveals himself as a suitor for tho hand of tha slBter of his chum. Strongheart has become as one of them speaks their tongue, thinks their thoughts, Is governed by their Ideals, their laws, their fate. What more natural than that he should choose his wife from among them? But the white man will not give their sister to an Indian, and though she, because of her great love, would for sake all to follow him, fate Inter feres, for his people will not accept the white woman as wife to Strong heart. The play is clecerly thought out and very ingeniously staged. There Is splendid action, plenty of sparkle In the dialogue, good situations and in tense dramatic purposd that are cer tain to grip the attention from the rising of the first curtain to hold it at high pitch until the final word is sppki en. v . "Strongheart," seemingly serious, is In reality full of breesy comedy for it reflects all the youthful gayety of college life especially when football is In the air. All lovers of the great game will revel In the second act, which shows the training quarters be tween halves of a football game on which rests Columbia' supremacy. Even those playgoers who may not be vitally Interested in football, will re spond readily to the buoyant humor and dramatic force of this episode, which never falls to arouse Intense enthusiasm. Henry B. Harris has selected a com pany well calculated to handle ef fectively the roles entrusted to them. It includes Mary Poland, who has won much success as Mr. Edeson's leading woman; Sydney Alnsworlh. Ira Hards. Frank J. Mclntvre. Mar- Jorlo Wood, A. Byron Beasley, Francis Bonn. Beatrice Prentice, Richard Sterling, David Todd, Harrison Ford, Pauline Bayer, F. A. Turner, Deslree Lasard, Clay Boyd, Paul Dickey, and half a dozen other well known East ern players.

When (he play open the old finan cier has been dead Just a year and a day and the beautiful Betsy Is blos soming out Into colors. It turns out to be a most important day In the young Widow's life, for within half an hour she has launched on a aeries of most extraordinary and complicated mat rimonial adventure that keep all the characters of tho comedy In a whirl of excitement and cross purposes up to the final curtain falling on the happy solution of Betsy's problem. ' Never having bean In love, the young widow decide to annex the title and coronet of a British earl, an ambition that la promptly frustrated by the discovery ot a new will. In which old Peter Killlgrew had Impos. ed the condition of a native born cltl sen a husband for Betsy in the event Of her remarriage, in the end she finds that she doe not want a title, but does want something very much better.
