PLAYS AND PLAYERS.
The "Shatchen" at the Grand
this Week.
The Theme of the Play
Outlined.
The Palme! Company Booked For
Next Week,
Stage Gossip—M. B. Curtis Tomorrow
Night—The Palmer Company.
News Notes.
Mr. M. B. Curtis won considerable
fame as "Sam'l of Fosen," a dramatic
study of the commercial tourist and his
surroundings. He now appears in the
Shatchen, which, anglicized, means the
marriage broker. He will open his
season here on tomorrow evening at the
opera bouse, and will play a matinee on
Wednesday. Mr. Curtis comes sup
ported by Mr. Frank Mordaunt, and is
said to have a good company.
The theme of the Shatchen is the inter
marriage of the son of a wealthy Hebrew
clothier and the daughter of a Yankee
banker. When the caste error of the
young man is disclosed, his otherwise
indulgent and amiable father disowns
him. The parent's fidelity to his re
ligious faith, coupled with grief over his
offspring's aberration, almost costs him
his life ; but after a dangerous illness he
is softened to a forgiving state of mind
by the presence of a grandchild. These
events are accompanied by the disgrace
ful bankruptcy of the banker, the phil
anthropy of the Hebrew merchant, the
sorrows of the bride, and the efforts of
the "Shatchen," or "marriage broker,"
to bring about a reconciliation. The
drama is full of humor, without offend
ing or making use of distasteful busi
ness.
The Palmer Company.
A dramatic event will be the engage
ment of the Palmer company at the
Grand opera house next week. The
reputation of this combination of artists
is such they need but little introduction
to the Los Angeles theater-going public.
MAUD HARRISON.
The fair Maud Harrison is with this
company. This noted comedienne is
anion"; the first of her special line.
This will he her lirst appearance in this
•city. Included in the company is also
J. H, BTODDABT.
Mr. J. H. Stoddart, who has been iiere
in the part of the dissenter minister in
Sainls and Sinners, a character delinea
tion which lias rarely been equaled.
Theater-goers have not forgotten the
pleasure of attending the admirable per
formances given by this company of
artists two years ago, and those who
failed to see them then should not over
look the opportunity afforded them now,
as such a company one rarely sees out
side of the great metropolis.
Of the plays to be presented Jim, the
Penman and Saints and Sinners have been
seen here, but they will bear repetition
many times. Captain Swift, A Man of
the World and Aunt Jack, the new ones,
have all been highly spoken of by all the
critics throughout the land, and Los
Angeles will undoubtedly join by adding
its endorsement to these finished per
formances. The new members, Maur
ice Barrymore, E. M. Bell, Ada Dyas,
Maud Harrison, Nannie Craddock, etc.,
who were not here with the company
during their last visit, have given mate
rial strength to it.

Three tons of ice are used in the. Chi
cago opera-house fan-room every night,

ment of the Palmers.
There is fl revival of the report that
Henry Irving intends to appear at no
distant date as "Mahomet" in a play
written for him by a well-known
dramatist and novelist. He bought the
English rights of Henri de Bornier's
play (which was suppressed in Paris in
deference to the sultan's wish), but there
is said to be no connection between the
two pieces.
