Witching and delightful "Prin
cess Chic" royal favorite of all
the truly great musical comedies
of the present decade, will be'
seen in Wahpeton this season,'
bringing a wealth of liadtfting'
melodies, intoxicating dances and
brjght-hijed pictures of romance
days in fair old Burgundy. At the
8ame time will be welcomed the
fjeturn of established favorites
with local playgoers, for the
company to present "The Prin
cess" is none other than the
Juvenile Bostonians, among
whose principals are well-remem
bered Misses "Patsy" Henry,
"Thom" Hellen, "Billy" O'Neil,
Dixie White, Ind Mitchell, Daisy
Henry and Vera Lockhart.. Opera
house Dec. i6th.
This interesting announcement
was made yesterday by the man
agement) of the opera hotise fol
lowing a visit here of Charles
Salisbury, manager in advance of
the Bostonians. An engagement
was made for Tuesday, Dec. 16.
"Wahpelon will like our com
pany better than ever this sea-'
son," Mr. Salisbury said, "for we
believe that .we have at last a-|
chieved the perfection for which
our directors have been striving
for more than nine years. 'Prin
cess Chic' was bought last yearj
because it was believed the juv
eniles had graduated from the'
class of less difficult and preten
tious musical pieces they had I
been playing. Although hamper-1
**d by lack of rehctusals and sev
eral unexpected changes in castj
on the road the venture was a
marked success, and before the'
end of the season the Juvenile
Bostonians in 'Princess Chic1 be-|
came such a widely and favorably
advertised attraction that offers
enough
\tjoi
fill out all summer,
were ceceived. Instead of accept
ing, these, however, the tour was'
ended in July and after a brief
vacation all efforts were centered,
upon piecing together a whole
j,new production, every feature of
which would be up to the com
pany's best standard. New mem
bers were added and several
changes were made, bub the.prin-j
cipals who already had earneu
wide popularity in the more im-|
portant roles were retained. Beau
tiful Miss Hellen still plays the
ijjtme role one that seems to have
been written specially for her
best abilities and wonderful sing
ing voice Miss 'Patsy' Henry.is
the droll steward Chamberlain
the swaggering soldier of fortune
'Brevet, is played by Miss Dixie
White, and Miss O'Neill is Chas.,
the Bold, duke of Burgundy."
"Princess Chic" sreckoned as
•one of the most successful oper
ettas ever written—it really would
be better classed as opera than as
musical comedy because of the
high character of many passages
of its splendid score. The music
is by Julian Edwards and the
book by Kirk LaShelle. It took
jNew York by storm at a time when
"Florodora" and "Dolly Varden
were types of the rivals to be out
done and, besides "making" La
Shelle as a top playwright, gave]
the first big lift up the ladder of
fame—the top of which all finally
reached—tyo 'Christie McDonald,

could be used, and the mat Is like the
finest woven fabric.

girl declines two or three times as a
matter of form, and In order that she
may enjoy the period of courtship.
