After throe and a half years of T interrupted success, the Beggar's Opera disappeared from the Lyrie stage at Hammerstein's in London re- cently. On its departure many thought they lost an old and even permanent friend for that the Beggar should ever have been taken off seemed al- most inconceivable. “The Pony Express” will be the edies to be released through Educa- tional Film Exchange.

HART in “WILD BILL Extra Attraction—Vaudeville Presentation of JOHN L. SULLIVAN’S REXMERE ORCHESTRA v AFS — Friday — Saturday “COLUMBUS” Hl(‘l(?l(’ The Palace management announces the showing here shortly of two of the greatest photoplays of the past sea- son, namely “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” and “Scaramouche.” The former comes here flrst as a travel- irng attraction with a large orchestra and there will be reserved seats for the showing. The Rexmere orchestra with John L. Sullivan and all New Britain boys will be given a vaudeville presentation on Thiwrsday, Friday and Saturday of next week at the Palace theater. This will b ap added attraction to the regular moving picture program. Lew Brems and Felix Martins, old favorites with New Britain tabloid fans have reunited and will appear shortly in a revue of their own at the Palace. ’ Clara Kimball Young, the firm ac- tress will be seen on the stage in the east. in William Hurlburt's *“I'rimmed in Scarlet” acted several seasons ago In New York by Maxine Elliott. Miss Young will probably be seen in New York in a different play by Hurlburt. A number of new photoplay attrac- tions have been booked for early ap- pearance at the Lyceum theater. Among the coming films is “Cameo MUSIC - O S AL S R Kirby” which played here several years ago as a stock production at the ' Lyceum with Alfred Cross in the lead- - ing role. Others soon to be shown are Charles Ray in ‘The Girl 1 Love,” “Judgment of the Storm” amd D, W. Griffith’'s “The White Rose.” “Little Nellle Kelly" George M. Cohan's latest musical comedy hit which recently closed a successful en- gagement at Boston, will, play in Hartford all of next week upon the completion of a twa-day engagement in Waterbury. Waterbury has never been® known as a good “show town™ but this past season has proven to theater managers that Waterburians will support good road attractions. It seems that if residents of Waterbury will support a good show there is no reason why New Britain theatergoers shouldn't do the same thing. Henry W, Savage’s new musical show “Lolipop” which had a suecess- ful engagement in Waterbury and a run in Boston will open at the Knick- erbocker ‘theater, New York, a ‘Qeek from Monday. Arthur Goodrich's latest play “So This is London"” will be seen at Par- sons’ theater, Hartford the week after next. Mr. Goodrich 18 a native of New Britain. SUNDAY NIGHT MON. ‘TUES.-WED.
