"Merry Widow" Repeats Its Triumph of Last Year 1 CAPACITY house greeted "The j\ Merry Widow" last night When ■*--*■ she and her beaux appeared at the Mason opera house attar an absence of a year or bo. That's about the best guarantee of the popularity of tho Savage offering. From indications "The Merry Widow" will do record business tills week, for Manager Wyatt .says his advance sale 13 something enormous. All tbOM who ma/lo "Tho Merry Whlow" so delightful when last It was wen in Los Angeles are still in tli.> cast. A now Natalia, Sophia Barnard, has taken her ploce with the company. Mlhs liarnard has a beautiful voice iimi makea a much better Natalie than any of her predecessors'. There's bo much real music in "The Merry Widow" it w«ms unnecessary to speak of it. "Maxim's," •'Villa" and tho Merry Widow waltz are unforget table. The strains of those beautiful numbers will linger in the memory >>f tho world for a generation or two. The world will continue to waltz because of "Tho Merry Widow." Mabel Wilbtr's Sonia, Oscar Ftg man's Popoft, George Damorel's Prinoe mnilo, Wm. V. Strunz' Nova Kovich cannot bo improved upon. Miss Wilber is beautiful and has a voice of peculiar attraction. Mr. Damerpl, who by the way Is a former Los Angelan, is tho personification of grace. Together thoso two exceptional artists give a treat Which is enjoyed as often as wltnessod. I-Yom the standpoint of costumes and scenery, "The Merry Widow" today 13 as flue as It was before. Mr. Savage has not allowed his second-year com paay, which Is second year only in point of time, to show the ravages of time. The chorus is beautiful and the gowns are works of tho modlsta's art. Tho scenery is as fresh and striking as ever. In fact everything about "Tho Merry Widow" is on as grand a scale as in years past. If them are any in Los Angeles who have not attended a performance of "The Merry Widow" now is tho ap pointed hour to take advantage of a situation. Thoso who enjoyed a former performance might attend again, for thoy will find (is much pleasure in a second attendance aa a Mist one. Florence Roberts, Whit* Whlttlesey and a competent company presented "Gloria," on artistically staged and beautifully dressed comedy, at tin-. Auditorium last evening. The plot of "Gloria" relates the taming of a lovely Florentine shrew by •■•• traveling Eng lishman, This Englishman, Sir Philip lillley Infatuated by Madonna Qlorlf Capponl, la fooled by her into believing she is Lucresla Borgia, and is Induced as a test of his affection to bury the alleged corpse of a supposed victim. The corpse is that of a. pig, and it is when Sir Philip discovers the trick on him and finds himself the laughing stock of Gloria's set that his affection Is really tested. However, Instead of deserting Gloria, he whips her, and James Bernard Fagan, the young Irishman who wrote the play, would have us believe tho Englishman's thrashing compels tho Florentine vixen's love. Miss Roberts as Gloria and Whlt« Whlttlesey an Sir Philip Lilley made an uncommonly handsome and well dressed couple, and were as convincing as could be ex pected. To persuade an audience that whipping a woman is a sure way of winning her affection, and that tying up a, man and threatening him with reprisals will make him adore the fair object of his chastisement is a some what difficult task. Robert Stow,, Gill as Count Silvio Spin! showed marked ability and delineated a genuine com edy character without overdrawing it. The other members of the company were competent and satisfactory. Florence Roberts' plays are always well rehearsed and run smoothly 1. "Gloria" deserves a bigger audience than it attracted last evening. It is conscientious, well rehearsed, and in its painstaking completeness, altogether Roberts-like work, and merits public support and appreciation. ! . . • • ■ .. Two of the new acts on the Or pheum vaudeville program which opened yesterday afternoon are ex ceptionally worthy. One, a sketch en titled "On Stqny Ground," is a classic. It pivrs a faithful picture of life as ft Is lived. The other, a bicycle act, teems with comedy which delights every body. The scenes of "On Stony Ground" are laid In an eating place in the. New York slums. Lottie Williams portrays a waitress in "The Pried Kgg," an the restaurant is called. She Rives *an adequate Idea of the pathetic exis tence, marked here and. there with a bit of humor, of the average girl who in forced to live in an atmosphere of dishwater and hungry men. . The main benefit of "On Stony Ground" is the Both tho Friday Morning club and the Cosmos club had subjects along lines la ' *eek, and at the Cos moa club Ideas of Interest and value were suggi sted on the subject of tic Infelicities last wedn morning by Mrs. Emma Greenieaf of Long i '■ ach. view it gives of classes and ma=sos, cf the difference mad* In individuals ,| in widely separated envlron- I ments. Hiss Williams resists all temptatlou to over-act, and gives a most faitiiful portrayal of a difficult character. She is natural and ml, and her characterisation of th^ cxquislto as a oameo. Others In tho company are up to stan dard. Save fnr one passing bit of vulgarity, «h<> Charles Ahearn Cycling Comedians i nre most enjoyable. The vulgar hit is Introduced when an exceptionally beautiful woman ia perched on the shoulders of one of the bicyclists ia unnecessary and suggestive. Tim Ahearn troupe ride all sorts, kinds and shapes of things on wheels, gome circular, some otherwise. The various "wheel* are enough to cause laush ter, but when ridden In a comical man ner by men in grotesque costumes, the result is a riot of fun. Ida Fuller offers a spectacular fan tasy of dancing-. Most of the "art" re sults from hard work on the part of the electrician. Tho act Is pretty, but not unusual in Its worth. Nothing new or distinctive is to be found In tho entertainment of Charles and I-illy Charlene. It consists of jug gling by Cluules and xylophone play ing by Lily. The act entertains some what—that's all. Holdover acts are Reynolds and Pon egan, fancy roller skaters; Felix and Barry presenting "The Boy Next Door," Clara Belle Jerome In "Joyland" and Wlnona "Winter, "the little cheer up girl." • • • Ferris Hartman's picturesque pro duction of "The Love Tales of Hoff man" is already familiar to tho musical public of Lob Angeles. Ho Is present ing the opera again this week for the third time in Los Angeles. In effectiveness of costume and scenic beauty the production Is quite up to previous attainments, and for this production Mr. Hartman offers two exec llent singers In tho persons of Edith Mason and Bernice Holmes, who appear in the soprano and contralto roles. As Niclausee, the companion to Hoff man, Miss Holmes bad small ohano* In the first and second acts. In the beautiful Venetian scene, however, her rich tones wero advantageously placed In the duet with Miss Mason. The music to this scene, so familiar and SO delightful, was doubly lovely when sung by these artists, and the sensuous lilt to tho dreamy serenade formed an effective vehicle fnr both voices. Mi?s Mason has already been heard h( re in several successful appearances, but In nothing has she appeared to such advantage ns her work hist night. In the divers soprano roles, the doll with lyric colorature, the courte zan, with cajoling canttinte, and the young singer, dramatic and lmpaa* I in her love Of her art, she of !' n 1 ;i clear, artistic vocalization, :m,l an a |uate dramatic ability, she uses her voice with discretion that quite covers up the thin middle regis* ter, and her upper notes are true und musical. Tom PerSSS as Hoffman played the part with too much stolidity, but his second act with considerable feel Ing, and throughout the opera ;hls lyric work was admirable, although in the songs demanding any dramatic In tensity his voice showed the effect of overwork. The orchestra is augment ed and was effective under the baton of J. A. Raynes. Other roles were cap ably sung by regular members of the company and the chorus is largo and well iiistutnefl. "The Harden of Lies," George Broadhurst's new romantic drama, opened tor the second week of its run lit the BeIMCO theater last night. A capacity audience greeted the play, which was applauded roundly. Sullivan & Conaldtne opened their new bill at the Los Angeles theater yesterday afternoon with Bernard and Orth, the German funmakeis, as the bright particular stars. The bipr minstrel nhow to be when at the Belasco theater April 12' and 18, for the benefit of the Players' Country club, will be one of the most unique stage Offerings, ever made in 1 ,os Angeles.

The show will give Los Angelana an opportunity of seeing- all the local StsjgS favorites, among the men, do something out of the ordinary, which is to appear in a black-face makeup.
