Some one shouted "Casey!" and De
Wolf Hopper bowed his long way from
the wings and "spoke" It. This hap
pened last night at the Novelty theater
between the first and second acts of
"Happyland," anH I venture the guess
that it will be done yt the same stage
of proceedings every night during the
week that Hopper and his company of
leugh getters are at the O'Farrell
street theater.
-"It. was just as though there had been
no fire And we were all back in the
Baldwin, a dozen or co years ago, when
the. comedian with a voice was here
in "Wang." The seats are not lined
in blue plush, for we've .. developed
germs since then, but otherwise it was
as.it was 12 years ago, when De, Wolf
Hopper firet recited "Casey at the Bat."
First he had to make a speech last
night in response to tbe applause he
rot; then be came out with some of
bis company and bowed, and then came
"Casey at the Bat." It was a great
night.
. What about the show? Well, it is
music to a phadowy, fantastic book by
Frederick Kanken. Much of the music
is -pretty, and much in very boresome.
De Wolf Hopper and William Wolff and
a«m« of" the others make the story
funny, so' there's no use Inquiring to
whom the witT>elongs the credit —
author or actors. It is a mythical tale
about Ely si a. Altruria and Fortunia,
the xnonarchs and princes of which
lands furnish the slim thread that holds
the book together.
There are some very pretty , scenes,
notably that in the second act, where
Arcadia's green hills and trees are dis
closed. But all of the book and ..the
music is second in importance to Hop
por and his' tiny support, called in the
programs. Marguerite Clark. She is so
Jlttle that she might eea.t herself on
"our- pe»l ring, and she is full of spar
kle' ano" the assumed awkward grace

The -principal, success of the piece, how

ish" was played by. Charles R. Gilbert.
f They did some very grim and very
genuine acting; the one resigned to the
lynching.-the other gibbering with ter
ror, while. the Virginian, stirred to his
soul by his love, for his. friend Steve,
stood by and ; did his \u25a0 western duty.
More of. the same kind. of acting would
help the stage, even if it is . melo
drama.
"W. S. Hart was the Virginian. He
Is -a fine character actor, .one of the
best that has visited us. He makes the
role more like my conception of the
character than did Dustin Farnum.
The latter accentuated tne roughness;
Hart emphasizes the tenderness. His
voice Is one of the warmest I have
heard off' the operatic stage,, yet he
"gets away" successfully with, the lines
which encroach.. perilously ...near ,\ the
point of bathos. He is as sincere with
his audience as with Molhe Wood. The
essence of . his portraiture is open eyed
honestyi. His courage arid honor and
tenderness make a triple appeal which,
as I said, women are. anxious to be
lieve in, and men of. course - believe
In. that kind of a chap and say. "Why
I knew a fellow once In, and co forth.
Because It is a masculine play is no
sign there. are no women ,ln,.t. There
are; that's what makes it masculine.
There's Molly Wood, played sweetly
and simply by Anne Meredith,. who was
as discreet as a good, young wife when
her husband is entertaining some of his
old bachelor friends, fihedidn't get in
the ; way. but helped picturesquely in
developing tne character play that was
built about "The Virginian." Frank
Vail was Honey Wlggln, and the most
successful of the smaller parts. He
looked as well as ; he '. acted his • role.
Frank Carapeau was . Trampas— a ; fine
part in -splendid .hands. Campeau cre
ated the role when the play was first
staged. He will. I hope, remain in it
until the next time "The Virginian"
comes tO town.
ORPHEU.iI
William Hawtrey and . his company
have the headline place among the new
comers at . the Orpheum 7 this week,
though the week's features are * good
without exception/ The. English actor
is the villain in a one act sketch which
ranks among the best of the serious
playlets that have been brought to the
local vaudeville- stage since the, Or
pheum entered its present home. The
supporting company; Is an excellent one.
In fact, "Compromised," as the 'sketch
is called, might better be a .vehicle ; for

.were preparing |to seat]; himself, 'gath

through ;the. window. IThe trick was
so speedily performed; that Uhe sheriff,

backed to; the spot where;,the; prisoner
was i supposed to have j umped. ; Broken
