"The Beauty Shop" at the Grand Tonight With Entire New York Production.

Raymond Httchcock, America's foremost fun-maker in the musical comedy field and who is now in his 7th season as a star under the direction of Cohan & Harris, will come to the Grand tonight for one performance. He will appear in his latest Broadway triumph, "The Beauty Shop," the greatest success of his career.

The new offering is a musical comedy in three acts from the collaborated" pens of Ohanning Pollock, Rennold Wolf and Charles J. Gebest. The piece will introduce the droll comedian star in the fitting role of Dr. Arbutus Budd, a beauty specialist extraordinary and the patron saint of swell society, precisely the type of character that this Inimitable pastmaster in droll artistry

is best fitted to protray. Here are some of the songs they sing tn "The Beauty Shop:" "I Want to be Like Lillian Russell," "Come Along, Little Girl, Come Along," '^Saturday Afternoon on Broadway," "That's the Way a Woman Wants a Man to Love," "When the Creditor Comes to Call," "Poor Uncle Gasazus," "In Corsica," "My Lady Fair," "All Dressed Up and No Place to Go," 'Twas in September," "Ring Out, GJad Bells," "I Love You Just the Same," "The Pishing Fleet is Homeward Bound," "Tale of a Mermaid," "My Tango Queen" and "We Will Sail Back Home."

Cohan & Harris have surrounded Mr. Hitchcock with a very large and altogether capable company numbering ^pearly a hundred players. *0$ The complete Astor theatre cast and I production will accompany Mr. Hitchcock for the local engagement so that "The Beauty Shop" will be seen here precisely the same as during the long

Broadway run, just as presented in Chicago, Philadelphia and Boston. Hitchcock insists upon his original cast and stage equipment when "on the ro&d," a fact that alone stamps him as unique in the musical comedy field. Whatever he has to offer his New York trons is none too good for his "touring towns." Skimping the cast and cutting down scenic equipment to save money while on the tour never has .been the practice of "Ray" Hitchcock.

When Dreams Come True" Coming to Grand

Joseph Santley, whom we all remember as the young hero of the hairraising melodramas and of whom it has been said "used to hold up th. United States army betwen drinks ami (rtand off the Wells Fargo Express Co. every morning before he could relish

Ijreakfast," has graduated from th. Td ^"shooting opera" and is now bright particular star of the musi,Sal comedy "When Dreams Com? *True," to be seen at the Grand on

Thursday night, October 22. In putting aside the cowboy regalia for the more conventional evening dress of musical comedy Mr. Santley Beems not to have lost any of the popularity that used to attend his sensational appearances as "the greatest boy actor in the world." In fact, "When Dreams Come True" has been the medium for his talents during a longer period than any of the old style of shows and he comes to this city with the endorsement of long and successful "runs" in the majority of principal cities, especially in Chicago, New York, Boston and Philadelphia. "When Dreams Come True" is a combination of music, farce, melodrama and dnncing, with the latter eleff- trient well to the fore and including most of the new modern steps now in vogue. Philip Bortholomae, who is •both author and producer of the play, has surroiinled the young star with a large and capable company, which includes Cathryn Rowe Palmer, Mignoti

McGibney, Ruth Randall, Acia Sterling, Josephine Kernell. Richard Taber, Edward Hume, Clyde Hunnewell, FranU Russell, Otto Schrader and that versatile Russian violinist, Saranoff.

The music is from the pen of Silvio Hein, who has furnished many tuneful Scores for the musical comedy stage. -O (THE TRIBUNE CLASSIFIED PAGE the great real estate market of western Indiana and eastern Illinois.

4k Mique O'Brien.

One of the very few theatrical entertainments that justify the high tariff exacted will be presented at the Grand tonight. Mr. Hitchcock's coming has been exploited. He .has been "billed" in surrounding towns quite as extensively as in Terre Haute.

Manager Smith, of the Grand, has made every effort to arouse interest ii'i the engagement and he has had the sympathetic co-opera-of members of Cohan and Harris'

MIQUI3 O'BRIEN

business staff—the best of its kind in the world. Everybody knows by this time that we are to have a whale of a show at the Grand tonight. We can go with the same confidence we had in Montgomery and Stone's "The Lady of the Slipper." The Grand ought to be packed in every part tonight and very likely it will be. But the house is not sold out. Don't let Jimmy tell you, little one, that he can not get seats for "The Beauty Shop." He can, or at least, he could at the hour this was written.

Raymond Hitchcock, who Is with us today, made his debut as a chorus man in the William P. Carleton Opera company, according to data furnished by 'n-li. manager in advance of "The Beauty Shop." That wa3 so long to think about it. He would rather tell you about the time iiy Colonel Savage as of am Castle Square Opera company. Mr. tound fame and for-

Varietics

tune in "Three Little Lambs," "The Burgomaster," "A Dangerous Maid" and "Miss Bob White." He first appeared as a real sure-enough star in "King Dodo," afterwards in "The Galloper," "The Student King," "The Yankee Tourist," "Easy Dawsqn" and "The Yankee Consul." Cohan and Harris first presented him in a revival of "The Mascot," then in "The Man Who Owns Broadway" for three seasons, in "The Red Widow" two seasons and now in "The Beauty Shop" for his seventh annual tour under the Cohan and Harris banner.

The day after the style show closed a prosperous looking gentlemen tried to get by Roy Tilson at the Grand with a card from a local merchant as guarantee of respectability and good intention.

He was directed to the box office. "My word," said he, "is that awful custom of charging admission to the theater about to be revived by Manager Smith?"

After nine days in Canada James K. Hackett has closed his season. When he found the Canadians were too much concerned over the war to pay attention to his "Othello" Mr. Hackett assembled his actors -and said: "Let's go fishing." And they went fishing.

Dramatists are discovering that exhibition of their work in film form lessens their value to the stock companies of the country a.nd authors of successful plays will not be so eager to deal with the motion picture people as they were. And that isn't the worst of the outlook. There are not as many stock companies paying royalties for recent successes as there were a few years ago. Eugene Walters admits he made $40,000 out of the stock rights of "Paid In Fall Charles Klein received about $50,000 from stock companies for the use of "The Third Degree." He also got a good round sum from the Luibins for the film rights to this and other plays.

Now Chicago is falling In line with London and New York and is recognizing the craze for the revue style of entertainment. Already plans are under way to produce at one of the leading Chicago theatres in December a musical mixture entitled "Chicago's Annual Revue of 1914."

The piece will include travesties of plays that are familiar to local theatregoers, such as "Daddy Long-Legs" and "Help Wanted." The authors are Frederick Herendeen, Hugo Frey and Frieda Hall.

Maggie Teyte is gathering recruits for the allies by her rendition of the song, "Your King and Your Country Want You," in England. Miss Teyte is quite the rage in London juet now. She is to Jour this country in concert later on.

HOBO'S BARE PIECE OF LUCK.

SEATTLE, Oct. 10.—Stephen Maurer, who spends a great deal of the time riding on the neither side of the freight car, always will have a good one to tell his fellow associates on the Great Northern Railway company.

After having beaten his way across the continent Maurer lay down to sleep at the side of the track neaj" Skykomish, James Greber, engineer on the Great Northern road saw Maurer and, believing 'he had been hurt, took him aboard the train to Seattle.

Here an automobile ambbulance awaited Maurer he was taken to the hospital, examined and bathed and placed in a nightshirt under clean, white sheets. Maurer said later he was sleepy and too tired to offer any objections, even to a bath.

TERRE HAUTE TRIBUNE

NEW FACES FIGURE 18 VARIETIES BILL

Acts New to Terre Haute to be Pre seated During the Coming Week.

Music, novelty and comedy combine to make a pleasing bill at the "Varieties for the first half of the week, the standard of shows this season has been up to the average and the grade of acts improves. The six Kirksmith sisters, the feature of the first half bill, are not only accomplished musicians but also vocalists of a high order. They have a choice selection of numbers, both instrumental and vocal, and no doubt will please all lovers of gfood music. Another feature, but of a different order, is Jew Whitehead, "The Artistic Nut." He has appeared in "The Tik Tok Man," "The Girl Question," "The Red Mill," "The Umpire" and other musical comedies. He has a line of patter that is in keeping with the nut character he assumes. Harlan E. Knight and company present a one act rural playlet, "The Chalk Line." This act is put on with special settings and during the run of the act a snow storm effect is introducel with remarkable realism. "The Chalk Line" is said to be taken from an incident in real life among the down east ruralites. Bcrns and Kissen are song writers and entertainers of ability ana have a turn which ought to please. Eldora and company present comedy and heavy weight juggling. It is a comedy act from start to finish but with it they perform feats of astonishing skill. This bill opens Monday matinee and runs through Wednesday.

The week end bill is headed by The Jungman Family, a European feature act. They are sensational wire walkers, doing work on a slender wire which would be considered difficult on the ground. Another entertainer that will be received with pleasure is "the personality girl," Nan Halperin. Miss Halperin needs no introduction as she has played the Varieties before and will be remembered for her clever work and charming personality. Ted McLean and (company present a sketch that details the troubles of a young wife and her hubby. The Three Burns Sisters have a singing act. These young ladies have excellent voices and sing the latest song numbers in a way that will win approval. Laughlin's dogs will exhibit something new in the way of animal acts.

Elsie Janis' Chauffeur Has Turned English

Elsie Janis took her American chauffeur, known chiefly as Frank, over to London with her. Frank has been with Miss Janis three years and before entering her services was a pugilist of more or less renown. "You should have seen him on the night I opened," Miss Janis was telling a. friend after her success in London "It seems he heard something about the way the gods boo here and he stationed himself in the gallery. After a while some one went up to him and asked him if he didn't think that it was going great. 'Well,' says Frank grudgingly, 1 haven't had to dot anything to them yet.' And then next day when he read all the reviews and found that not one of the forty critics had mentioned that I couldn't sing he just became British all at once. That very day I heard him making inquiries about the road to Bawth, and now you should hear him curse his 'bally engine.'

"Cat and Cherub" to be Revived

At his Princess theater in New York, home of dramatic horrors, F. Ray Comstock is to revive Chester Bailey Fernald's celestial classic "The Cat and the Cherub," first produced under Mr. Blinn's direction in New York a number of years ajgo. To those who have seen this piece, with its oriental •glamour and what might be termed its ornate barbarity, its deep romance, and its thrillingly swift tragedy, further recounting is unnecessary. It will call for the largest cast yet seen in the Princess theater. 'Little Face," by Roland Oliver, is programmed merely "a comedy of the beginning," and promised to be highly revelatory. The program includes one singular psychologic fantasy, "The Forest of Happy Dreams," scene laid in central Africa, author Edgar Wallace. The late Stanley Houghton will be represented by his satire upon British society, "Phipps," in which Mr. Blinn will portray a butler imperturbable and resourceful in circumstances positively catastrophic.
