A large audience greeted "The Yellow Jacket" with enthusiasm In the Dnkc of York's Theatre, on Thursday nlgbt, and it is certain that the play will run in triumph till the particular section of the public to which It appeals hi exhausted. Whether It will draw the larger, "popular" crowd of pleasure i seekers remains to be seen. We owe Its Introduction to this country to Ilobert Lor- raine, who enlisted Gaiton Mayer, to whom Charles Frohman has leased the Duke of York's Theatre. As the Important officials of the permanent staff'have gone,. It would appear that Mr. Frohman has ceased to identify himself with the Duke of York's Theatre. In the meantime. London artists are employed In the Interpretation of "The Yellow Jacket;" for instance. Frederick Boss, as the chorus, and Holman Clark, as the prompter. They seem to catch the spirit of the thing perfectly. Vast audiences are assisting at Forbes Robertson's farewell performances at Drury Lane. He began with "Hamlet" on Satur- day, and proceeded to "The Passing of the Third Floor Back." Next he will revive "The Light That Failed." Shakespeare la getting a good deal of attention Just now. "Romeo and Juliet," la which the Melvllles arc exploiting Harcourt Williams and Lillian Hallowes, is very popular at the New Prin- cess. Sir Herbert Tree has struck a failure with "The Happy Island," produced at His Maj- esty's on Monday. The intention of the author Is good enough. His difficulty Is to make the fantastic second and third acts in- teresting, and illusory, on the stage. They tend to the ridiculous. Andrew Remington, a financier of the grim, undevlatlng type, acquired mineral conces- sions In a South Sea. Isle, certain to yield him a vast fortune if the pitch-blend, yield- ing radium, could be worked. But the eni- rment was deadly and the natives knew Remington deplored the fact in his Lon- don drawing room. Derek Arden, a whlm- Elral adventurer, propounded a scheme. He ■would delude the natives into the belief that he had supernatural power and. In the quality of a god, would procure them to work. Remington eagerly offered Arden a vast sum to work this scheme. He was, Indeed, eager to get the fascinating scamp*out of London, for Arden was the lover of the beautiful Mrs. Remington. 'So far: Tense, interesting drama. On the island Arden succeeded to admira- tion. Then the natives began to interest him. He bated himself for his fraud, and sought to proceed in the way of healthily cultivating them—mind, body and estate. In the complications that arose he was claln. Sir Herbert Tree Is not even well suited in a character. James B. Fagan has adapted ibe play from the Hungarian. Arnold Bennett's play, "The Great Adven- ture," produced at the Kingsway Theatre on Tuesday night, hi already familiar in the form of a novel, and there was a tentative performance by the Glasgow Repertoire Com- pany. The first fact stated robs the play of Ibe supreme charm of novelty. The second might have Impressed Granville Barker and Mr. Bennett with the need for condensation. Still, "The Great Adventure" seems to have got there all right. It demands from the spectator a daring flight of fancy. I lam Carve, a brilliant artist of great wealth, was possessed by shyness. When his valet fell ill, and the doctor confounded the sick man with his master, assiduously performing the duties of a nurse. Carre was too shy to cor- rect the error. The valet died and was ac- corded a public funeral in Westminster Abbey. Worse, Curve's vast fortune was distributed according to the terms of Ills wilt among various Institutions for the en- couragement of art—all except the valet's portion, an annuity of eighty pounds a year. At this Juncture there appeared on the scene a comely. common-sensical little widow, with whom Shawm, the valet, had Just begun -a correspondence through a matrimonial agency. The pseudo-Shawm promptly completed the transaction, and 11am Carve, bereft of name and fortune, but endowed with a simple, charming wife, found himself happier than he had ever been. He began to paint again, and his pictures, having unmistakably the style of the dead Carve, nearly brought about an exposure. But the author ingeniously overcomes this difficulty. - For the part of the widow Granville Barker has boldly re- sorted to the variety stage—to Wish Wynne. At Wsndham's'Theatre Gerald Du Maurler has revived "Diplomacy," the forty year old adaptation of Sardou'a "Dora." It has been modernized, notably In its political refer- ences, and still it seems old fashioned. Some of the critics use It as a text for a disserta- tion on the enormous Improvement in play- writlng. But the famous scene of the three men probab'y went as well as ever. Sir Squire and Lady Bancroft, inseparably—and still—associated with "Diplomacy," watched the performance from a box. Three distinguished invalids report cheer- ily. Charles uawtrey is able to act again. Leonard Boyne Is progressing favorably, and Dun Rolynt is making a tour of the theatres. "Oh! Oh! Delphlne" registers Its fiftieth performance at the Shaftesbury Theatre on Thursday next. Clifton Bingham, the writer of two thou- sand ballads. Is dead, "Love's Old Sweet Song" was probably the best known. Toby Claude, after a trial of her "Little Cabaret" In the country, brought it to the l'nlacc Theatre on Monday, where it made a great hit. The stage Is set as a cabaret and tlirongci by a characteristic crowd. New- comers arrive from the bark of the theatre, lciiklug their way to the stage by the aisle and the stalls, and during the course of the show all the performers make a procession through the audience, Toby Claude at tbclr head, Hinging roses here and there. The show Is a vivacious -melange of song and dunce—characterized by n good deal of "free- dom," and couslstlng largely of ragtime. Miss Claude herself is a liberal contributor, I'hnnging her costume many times. "The Little Cabinet" tundc quite a hit. Melville Gideon opens at the Tivoll on Monday "with ragtime and other—chiefly •other'—melodies." Frank Tlnncy moves on from the Palace to the Victoria Palace. 8eymour Hicks is hard at work on tho now Empire revue—details of his part wore conimunlcated to hhn In New York, at a cost of several thousand dollars for cables, but It Is still doubtful If the show will be ready - advertised date, April 7.

I am to play nt least six porta. While In New York 1 picked up some Aral rate musical numbers." • £ t el r -f. Tey 0Bd Barley Kellogg have both been III and absent from "Hello!

Austin Hurgon has provided the Moss Empires with another revue, which Is to be produced at a provincial bouse—Liverpool or Leeds—as "What Ho! Ragtime!" It has a roof garden, with a bird's-eye view of New York for the background of an Important scene, and exploits Paul Barnes as Rastus Q. Washington. Nellie Burt had an offer of an engagement from the Moss Empires on the condition that she should open at Birmingham on Easter Monday. This meant her immediate de- parture from New York and a rush from Southampton to the midland city, but the artist was there on time and made a great hit.

World's Greatest 8bows opened the season of 1913 at tbe Coliseum, Chicago to-night, in a Maze of glory. It was a brilliant affair. There was not an empty seat in the big amphitheatre when Al Rlngltng gave the signal to start the Initial eerformance. To review the RlngUng Bros. Show In de- tail would require columns of space, but to sum it all up in a few words, the offering this season is thoroughly in keeping with the high standard which has been established by the Circus Kings. The RlngUng Show Is a vast affair, bigger, perhaps, this year than ever before. To-night's audience was a most enthusiastic one. Apparently not a single detail had been overlooked In ranking ready for the season which opened tonight, and which promises to be an eminently suc- cessful one. The big show moved along with canck-lfke regularity and the thousands of Chlcsgoans who gathered to-night to welcome the circus folks were enthusiastic in their applause as the various features were pre- sented. Preceding the circus performance proper a concert, rendered by Rlngling Bros.' Military Band, under tbe direction of J. J. Richards, was heartily enjoyed. The menagerie and freak exhibition in the Coliseum Annex is deserving of special men- tion. A congresB of unusual features has been assembled for this department. The following Is the official program of the RlngUng Bros.' World's Greatest Shows, season 1013. Display No. 1.—Grand opening spectacle, "Joan of Arc," under the personal direction Of Al. RlngUng. This Parlslenne spectacle Is presented in an elaborate manner. "Joan of Arc" tells the story of a simple peasant girl who. through her faith and Christian courage, became the deliverer of France, and who then, deserted by all, even the indolent monarch wboae crown she restored, was put to death on the false charge of heresy. This strange heroine of only eighteen years holds a anlqttc place in history. She was born In Domremy, a little village In Lorraine. Her SarentB were simple laboring people. The eath of Charles IV had spilt France into two great factions. An English king had been crowned at Paris, and the country was In e state of suspense and uncertainty. In- spired by the united impulses of religion and patriotism, Joan began to see visions, which appeared to ber in her father's garden, and told her that she must go to Chlnon to rescue of the Danphln—that she was to become the deliverer of France After many difficulties the peasant girl succeeded to Interesting a nobleman in her story. He bought her a horse and sent her to Chlnon, where, after eleven days of hard travel, Bhe was received, at court. . _ la presenting this picture play the Rlng- lings nave been lavish in their expenditure for costumes and scenic Investiture. Otto- kar Bartlk is the ballet master. Display No. 2. — Performing elephants, presented in three rings, under the direction of Albert Nelson, Geo. Denman and Norman Johnson.
