ep ec ecce eta neron Home and Samuel Shipraan and Clara Lipp- man, authors of “Hlevating a Hus- band” and others plays, are soon to be represented on Broadway again with a theatrical production. To- morrow H. H. Frazee will put into re- hearsal th test product from the pens of these writers. The play, which may be called “At Play,” though this tan’t certain, deals with the Jewish race all the way through. It differs from “Potash and Perlmut- ter” in that It shows the Jew away from business and at play exclusively. All the characters, of which there are seventeen, will be Jewish, The play deals with the elite of the race and is devoid of caricature, which is usually distasteful to those of Hebraic origin. Sam Sidman will be prominently cast. —, F. ALBEE INJURED. B. F. Albee of the U. B. O. is hob- bling around with a cane.

Pooh! herself, sang Mr. Harney’s ditty, “Mr. Johnson, Turn Me Loose,” which was lished in 1896, says Mr. Hainoy. jot only that, but there was “You've Been a Good Old Wagon, But You'vo Done Broke Down,” which Mr. Har- YvANT HER “TO looks as the belt, and we'll have to give it to him if Mr. Wayburn doesn't boisier up his evidence.
