Douglas Fairbanks took his entire com

THIRTEENTH CM
IS COMING SOU
Theater-goers who have waited prt
tiently for the coming of "Thirteenth
Chair," will bo well rewarded this sea
son when New York's sensational mel
odrama will be presented here by Wil
liam Harris, Jr., In the same elaborate
setting In which it was shown at tho
Forty-Eighth Street theater, New York.
To attempt a description of "The
Thirteenth Chair" in a few brief sen
tences would be well nigh impossible.
Suffice it to say that from the moment
the curtain descended on the last act
of the play on its opening night, it was
the most talked of play seen in New
York in an entire theatrical season. Its
continuous run at the FIrty-Eighth
street theater for more than a year
bears eloquent testimony to the Inter
es taken in the play by those who love
the drama.
"The Thirteenth Chair" is by Bav
ard Veiller, the author of "Within tlie
Law," who Is known to theater-goers
the world over as a master hand at
writing sensational dramatic plays.

of the sensationally attractive fea

part in this number were selected by
Mr. Morosco himself. Not one of the
girls has seen her twentieth birthday
as yet.
Inasmuch as "What Next" has been
voted a bigger and better comedy with
music than Morosco's other successes,
