THEATERGOERS AGAIN TO FACE | Y NORMALWEEK Barney Bernard at Murat— Englich’s Offers Two Musical Shows. VAUDEVILLE FEATURES The local stage will get back to normal next week as "Aphrodite” leaves the Murat tonight with her string of pearls and the classic utterances of Robert B. Mantell at English’s will fade away into enjoyable memories. Opening Monday for a week’s engagement at the Mnrst will be Barney Bern ard in “His Honor, Abe Potash," and English’s will divide the week between a new musical comedy. "It's Up to Yon” and “The Girl In the Spotlight,” a Victor Herbert affair. At B. F. Keith's. Marie Eee will be one of the featured players; the I.yrie will; feature Dot Marsel! and her jazz players: the Park will shelter Harry Long in “The Lid Lifters” and new hills will be ,j>n view at the Broadway and Rialto. WOODS’ FAVORITE STAR COMES TO SU RAT MONDAY. A. H. Woods will present his favorite star Barney Barnard in "Ilis Honor Abe Potash.” at the Shubert Murat theater next Monday night for all week. It does not happen twice in a generation that an actor succeeds in identifying himself In the min 1 o* the public so inseparably with a character as Barney Barnard has Identified himself with ; “Abe” Potash. Mr. Bernard's vehicle constitutes the fourth of a quartette, if such it may be j called. It dispenses with the Jovial Perl- | mntter, and its predecessors, having led ' the shrewd Jewish merchant through the mates of the cloak and suit trade and tha movies, it is only, fitting that his present play should launch him Into politics. For “His Honor, Abe Potash" If yon please, is made mayor of the city of Damascus, X. TANARUS., by a tricky gang of politicians; but he is so honest tlist he foils their design to rob the city through hU connivance, even though his only •on seems a thief and Is only freed of suspicion through his father's knowledge
