The pictures on the | billboards © “fetched” me, and a large houseful ‘besides. There is | one thing about the Central Theater: if there is an explosion on the billboards vou get it; if there is a “leap for life” from an express train you get all of the leap and life and train; if there is a mur- der—and when is there not?—you. get every drop of the gore. So I knew that when the pictures showed a lovely, satin- backed lady being abducted in a gloomy | hack, we should get the hack and the lady. And we did. It was a real hack and a real lady. The hack was so realls- tic that it carried off one of the walls of | New York—of course, the kidnaping hap- pens in that Central sink of iniquity. But we anticipate. | Those greedy for the new sensation | should not miss “Kidnaped.” It should be said, however, that most of the Central bills are equally joys of living. To get the full and particular flavor of “Kid- naped”” I recommend the gallery, by preference, where the small boy, like the Blessed Damosel. leans out from his heaven. A dime buys the seat, a nickel | the essential peanut. Below, in the more aristocratic balcony, there is mommer and the wide-eyed baby, popper with the other one on his knee. There is Mamie and her ‘‘steady.” the unattached maiden (in pairs), the giddy bachelor (in bunches). | 014 age and youth are there, all sorts and conditions of folks, but not a .blase face among 'em. ‘They are there to enjoy, and how they do enjoy! And WHAT they do enjoy!—which, after all, is foreign to the question. The hero of “Kidnaped” is an artist (Edwin Emery), who wishes nobly to marry an heiress, but regrets her money. Her popper has, however, done the thing he should not, and thus placed himself in the power of the villain. Naturally, the villain wishes to marry the maid, but “beautifully’”’—as Hedda Gabler has it— has already a wife in the background. The right to the foreground of these fig- ures is, however, hotly contested by Po- liceman McMooney (James Corrigan), his wife, his daughter—who are on terms of blood-brotherhood with the heiress, and a young Dutchman, who says ‘chess” for Syes. The villain threatens to pu’ the thumb- screw on popper, who then gently coerces daughter to promise to marry him. The villain's wife then drops in in an offhand sort of way ‘from the asylum where she has been confined for-ten years. The vil- lain still pursues her, however, but Mrs. McMooney covers the situation with glory by blowing up her house and the villains and thus rescuing the lady. Not for long. “Beautifully” again, the injured wife s placed for safe deposit in the artist's studio. He comes in and addresses a “b—lank canvas” with some ‘“b—lank” remarks on life and then finds he s “out” of *“dark green paint.”” Of course he goes out to get it and the villain pops 4n just as —. As is usual, the artist has been painting by lamplight. The villain goes him one better. He turns out the lamp and then, disguised in the painter's coat, pretends to go on with the picture. The injured wife then walks in and takes him for the painter. Oh, the lovely inno- cence of it all! and begins the *‘story of me life.”” He then stabs her, puts a_lv!- ter in her hand saying she is the artist's wife, and e D “Ha!’-says the artist, as he picks up the bluggy dagger on his return, “that careless scrubwoman of mine has been leaving her traps around again!” “I will save you,” swears the mnoble young Dutchman when the “law” finds the artist in this dreadful fix, “‘even if I have to mortgage me father’s brewery to do {t!" The Dutchman, by the way, who is Miss McMooney's ‘“'steady,” has 8100 a week pocket money and more coming when the 0.4 man dies. Everybody does nobly, James Corrigan leading as Policeman McMooney. Millar Bacon (who has a very decent voice, by the way) was the Dutch youth and aroused the busy whistle to its shrillest. It was like the storm scene from “The Flying Dutchman’’ when he dropped dead as a sub-villain shot him, then rose again and said, ‘“Missed me again, ta-ra-ra.” Myrtle Vane does Daughter McMooney with much aplomb, Georgie Woodthcrpe the motehr, Henry Shumer the villain, Eugenie Thals Lawton the heiress, and Edwin Emery the artist. And all for 10 cents. BLANCHE PARTINGTON. Grand Opera-House. The' musical eccentricity, “In Central Park,” continues te draw crowded houses to the Grand Opera-house and it has ap- parently caught the public favor. The music is catchy, there are lots of shapely forms and the staging is artistic and splendidly managed. Cheridah Simpson was in fine voice last night and had to repeat her champagne song and the song, “Listen to the Music of the Military Band.” Columbia. Amelia Bingham and her company con- tinue to charm audiences at the Colum- bia Theater with “The Climbers.” This splendid play from the pen of Clyde Fitch, the well-known dramatist, is full of dra- matlc situations, clever lines and touch- ing scenes. Miss Bingham shows to ad- vantage in the leading role. Her com- pany ably supports her and the produc- tion is an excellent one.. Next week Miss Bingham will present “A Modern Mag- dalen,” which created a furor in the East. Tickets will be placed on sale Thursday. California. Nance O'Nell's “Magda,” as piayed this season, shows the marks of conscientlous effort and ripened judgment. The ruts in the road, the little crudities, the too abrupt transitions of mood that met with the condemnation of exacting critics dur- ing her earlier appearances in this play have disappeared-and the result is a. per- formance highly gratifying in the artistic sense, Tivoli. ““Wang” came back to the Tivoli Opera- house last evening for one week and his Siamese funniness was better than ever.

Jack Wilson, for years press agent of the Tivoll, writer of burlesques, operas, | songs and topical verses, severed his con- nection with that house last week and will leave Tuesday for the East, via Salt Lake City. His talented wife, Anna Wil- son, accompanies him. She sang in a number of roles in the Italian grand operas at the Tivoli last season with credit and lately filled an engagement at the Orpheum, scoring a success. Her voice is a mezzo soprano of extended range and of a beautiful quality, which she uses in a thoroughly artistic manner. Personally she is charming and possesses her full share of good looks. Mrs. Wilson will either appear in vaudeville or comic opera in the East. Mr. Wilson takes with him a number of operas, two musical comedies and onme play, and, judging from the success his pieces for the stage have had in this city, he should have no difficulty in placing them with Eastern managers. - ness. —_——————————— See the wheels go round ‘and print things: the big Mysell-Rollins plant, 22 Clay.
