BROADWAY THEATER. “The Traveling Salesman.” In connection with the coming ap- pearance in this city, on Monday, March Sth, at the Broadway theater of James "Forbes’ successful comedy, “The Traveling Salesman,” it may be of interest to the theater-goerg of this city to know the real story of how this comedy success of the century came 10 be wr(( It will be remembered that it was Mr. Forbes who wrote ‘“The Lady,” in which Rose Stahl is now starring, and which contributed great- ly to her elevation among the leading artists of the country. One day, while on the train coming from ic‘_«gn where “The Chorus Lady” was playing, Mr. Forbes was introduced to several gentlemen representing comm houses, and one of them said: ° ¥orbes, it seems to me that it mxxm be a good ldea for some playwright to H. F. Williams is in Colchester, write a play dealing with the drum- mers. Possibly yon are not aware that there _are over three hundred thousand of these in the TUnited States, and there is hardly a day pass- es that one of these ‘knights of the road’ does not meet with an experience | of a most interesting character with an extremely humorous side to it. Now if you would take some of these experi- ences and weave them {nto a story, I am sure that the public would be as quick to appreciate such a play as would the drummers.” A little while after the subject was dismissed, and several months passed before this cor versation was recalled. The idea g upon Mr. Forbes, until finally he was tmpelled with a desire to create such a lay. His next move was to acqua -himself with & number of cemmer men whose acquaintanceship he culti- vated. One day he asked one of them ¥ he would object to his accompany- ing the gentlemen on a trip, and per- mission was readily granted. The jou ney covered nearly ten weeks over a number of states, in which many towns were vistted. Plenty of atmosphere was gathered up, and Mr. Forbes hav- $ng become thoroughly familiar with road Mfe immediately set to work, with the re. “The Traveling Salesman,” which is now in its seventh month of | unintarrupted prosperity in New York. | One of the towns visited was so plctur- esque that it was taken as the locale . Seats on sale at the hox ual places on Friday,March JOHN INCEH. “The Great Divide,” the play of the decade, if not of the century, will be presented by Henry Miller at the Broadway theater this evening. A su- perb production, equalling in every de- um the one that won the praise of erit- ics amd artists at the Princess and Daly’s theaters, and the Academy of Musie, New York, the past two years, and & cast of unusual strength and ability will be seen here. The story of the play is of great finterest. In the first aot Ruth Jordan goes about sing- ing for very joy. iLife in the wide west has taken on new meanings for her and she is drunk withy love of it. A young dcctor ffom the edst asks her to marry him, but she turns from nim. He is tediously patient and faultless. Alone 4n the little home on the Gila desert she sings happily over her work. She goes to the open door to gaze at the stars as she brushes her hair. A stealthy step etartles her. She shuts 4 the door and bars it. There is a bab- ble of drunken voices, the door yields to force and three rowdies in miner’s dress burst into the cabin. They rush at the girl with jocular endearments, trying to kiss her. <Crouching in ter- ror in @& corner she appeals to one of the trio to save her from the others. Bhe oners to marry him, to go away with him, end néver tell the manner of their meeting. The man, SStephen Ghe agrees, but the others protest. The girl: and the man who has bought prepare to start on their her, left alcne, journey. ‘The girl pleads with the man to give her up, but he holds her to her promise.’ He has saved her from the Chorus | mahtmlnfloddxwm is his. settings of the play are appro- priate to its matter. 1\0 first Scene is a ranch house in 4 the second a e Roof of the World— upin the Cefaling mountains; and the third, the or of an old colonial home in Milford Corners, Mass. The | Scenes help to emphasize the keynote of the plas-4ho wpirit of the untram- melled west in conflict with the spirit established east. BREED T\Z;TE .
