The Bi llboard NOVEMBER 21, 1908. Boston, Mass. (Continued from page 5.) Monday night, and is ene of the best productions ever put on by the company. Miss Eleanor Gordon, the leading lady, as Dorothy, was at b-r best, and made one of her greatest hits. All tne players have excellent parts and deserve great praise for the smooth manner in which the piece was carried through. The Liars will follow for the 16th. The Man On the Box, by the John Craig Stock Co., is the current attraction at the Castle Square. Mr. Craig and his players have rehearsed the various roles carefully and presented a most entertaining production to a capacity audience, Monday night. In the cast Ryan, Theodore Friebus, Donald Meek, George are Mary Young, Minette Cleveland, Kate Ryan, Theodore Friebus, Donald Meek, George Hassell, and William Evarts. Next week they will offer Brown of Harvard. Lillian Russell, who is at the Hollis Street Theatre in Wildfire, bas been booked so completely that she will not have an opportunity | to rest until the middle of June. It is an’ even longer season than that which she played last year, showing the interest in her work | as a comedienne. Harry Lauder has received notification from thirty members of a Scottish organization in Montreal, that they are coming to Boston, Wednesday night, to see him at the Or pheum. At a dinner party given to Miss Connie Ediss, of the Lew Fields Company, now at the Majestic, the charming comedienne was presented with twin flags, one the Union Jack, and the other the Stars and Stripes. The silken streamers were given Miss Ediss that she might hoist them side by side at the gates of her farmstead in the Berkshires. Joe Welsh, in The Peddler, comes to the a Opera House for one week, November Lina Abarbanell has never played an engagement in Boston on any other stage than that of the Tremont Theatre. Her engagements here have been long ones, first in The Student King, and now in The Merry Widow. ““Willie’ Lawrence, the old-time comedian, is back in Boston and staying with his folks at Alleton. Mr. George E. Clark has been appointed business representative of the Castle Square Theatre. Mr. Clark has been connected with this theatre for two years, and during that time has made many friends. The promotion is well won and a well deserved advancement. The veteran Joseph Wheelock, who suddenly expired from heart failre while on his way to a rehearsal of Otis Skinner’s company, recently, has been succeeded in Mr. Skinner’s organization by Robert V. Ferguson, an admirable character actor, whose delineation of Sir Pitt Crawley in Mrs. Fiske’s production of Becky Sharp will be readily recalled. All Boston is looking forward to the opening of the new amusement resort, Boston’s Winter Garden, which has been announced to occur November 16. The Park Square Coliseum, where the show will be held is one of the largest buildings in this city, and was _ formerly the Union Station of the N. Y., N Hartford R. R. The long train shed which is 125 feet by 800, has had an entire new floor of the best uality of white maple, which has a_ perectly smooth and even surface, and with the beautiful decorations and electrical dislay has far eclipsed anything yet seen in oston. Twenty thousand dollars would not cover the cost of the beautiful canopy and electrical fixtures which cover the tremendous ceiling, over 100,000 square feet in surface of blended gold and blue, with many combinations of colored signs, by M. Singer, the New York decorator, who spent a great deal of time on the building and has transformed the spacious place into a palace. The electrical figures are composed of 75 large balls, 35 on each side and two on each end. the globes have 100 16 candle power lights, and around the sides of the building are thousands of colored lights, which, when illuminated, make the garden as bright as day. Mr. Pattee, the General Manager, is one of the best known managers in this city and is givSuing his personal attention to the booking and rranging of the various concessions. He has booked only the very best and clean#st attractions and has now on his list at least six big shows and many amusement devices, and at least 150 small attractions, which will make one of the greatest amusement enterprises ever held In this city under one roof. A great deal of money has been spent in free attractions which will be changed twice a week and every week will have something new to draw the crowds, with the admission price at ten cents. Some of the attractions that have been booked are: Oscar V. Babcock and his Death Trap Loop and Flume act, a $10,000 Merry-GoRound and Gondolo organ, Blake’s Trained Anitmal Show and Hippodrome, The Three Mermaids, Milard’s Temple of Music, The Mystic Temple, and many small attractions. EDWARD A. COADY. Boston, Mass. ST. CLAIR THEATRE, GREENSBURG, PA. The St. Clair Theatre, of Greensburg, Pa., has been taken over by T. F. Kirk, manager of the Nixon and Dnyuesne Theatres, of Pittsburg, and Mr. G. K. Allison, treasurer of the Nixon Theatre. Messrs, Kirk and Allison will at once assume control and it is possible the same booking or attractions that play the Nixon and Duquesne will be put on at the St. Clair. The Vampire Cat, a legend of old Japan. full of the mysticism of the Far East, showing the temporary triumph of a beautiful evil spirit, of Nature’s revolt at overpowering malevolence, giving a wider scope in terpsichorean expression than has yet been attempted. all told in a pantomimic dance, gave its initial performance on Thursday evening, November 12, at the German Theatre by FneiKo, a Japanese actress and dancer of — figure. In this marvelous story of the Prince and the Woman-Cat, Fugi-Ko demonstrates her pantomimic ability. Her costume is a startling novelty. The music which has been written especially for this novel act is symphonic in character, full of sensuonusness and color, a revelation of inspiration and harmony. Billy Lacelle writes that he is doing well in the South, where he is booked solid until January. CORRESPONDENCE. (Continued from page 25) IOWA. CEDAR RAPIDS—GREENE’S OPERA HOUSE (W. S.
