R KRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRItttR "The Spring: Mulil," a Iture Ecu.st or MumIc rtr This City. One of the most pretentious of re cent mimic successes will play an en KiiKcment nt the Auditorium on next Tuesday, giving a matinee and night performance, when Messrs. Werba & Luescher present' their enchanting operetta, "The Spring Maid." This lit traction comes direct from its tri umphant New York run of 300 nights at the Liberty theater In that city, and tills in the face of the fact that the tuneful opera huB been playing to ca pacity houses every night of its en gagement there. Not since "The Mer ry Widow" has there been a musical production us loudly heralded as "The Spring Maid" and its entrancing melo dies are too well known by music lovers to need any added comment. They have caught the public's fancy from the first. Already everyone who has slightest the ear for music, is either whistling or humming such gems of melody from its score as "Day Dreams," the captivating waltz number, "Fountain Fay," and the pleasing romance, "Two Little Love Bees." These musical numbers as sung by Miss Luneska, in her own in imitable manner, are In themselves sufficient to win popularity for "The Spring Maid." , ' On rare occasions an actor or ac tress seems born to a role in a play and- such ifl the case with Miss Gene Luneska us the saucy princess Ho.ena. She Is as refreshing as a spring morn ing and as sprightly as a wood nymph Through two quaintly pleasing acts of the dainty operetta, she flits with all the bubbling Innocence of a hap py child. Leo Stark, who has achieved an en viable reputation both iniAmerlca and abroad, handles the comedy role of lloland, a tragedlun. in a manner that never falls to receive gales or laugh ter and applause from his audiences. The production of "The Spring Maid" will be Indentlcally the same as It was during Its two seasons run In' New York city. Not a single change will be made In It and there will be the sume chorus of 50 and orchestra of 20 to adequately handle the tune ful score. Matinee prices are from no cents to $l.."n. Night prices are from 75 cents to $2.00. Ticket sale opens Saturday at a. in. at Whltlock's. play. "The Herfbrds," whose theme Is up-to-the-minute, deals with the story of an ambitious mother, who In ner anxiety to seek a career, has seemingly neglected her only child, a daughter. The mother's realization of her serious mistake comes In the final scene, when the daughter, who has been kept at a boarding school, bored by the loneliness of the play and lack of her parents' affection, has fallen In love with the school chauf feur and runs away to tell her mother of her intended marriage with her youthlul - lover; , How the mother (Viola Allen) grappled wtth this pre carloua situation and finally succeeds in winning back her daughter is best told 'by witnessing this remarkable play, of mother-love. Miss Allen Ib well suited in the role of mother. In fact It Is one of the best parts she has had in a long time, while the others In the Cast, Including Charles Waldron, George Fawcett, John West ley. Grace ISIIiston, Jessie Izette, Be atrlec Prentice and Emily Varian, all perform excellent work. . ..'. to place his daughter on the stage.
