' ' Outcast ' ' is new and has aroused widespread approval, having made a six mouth's sensational season's run in the Lyceum theater, in 2s uw York, and a phenomenally sucessf ut season's tour on tho load with Mu.a Elaine Ferguson at the head of a moat ei f ii-.ieiit company. com-pany. I. here was much critical speculation, when thi! pi ay was first given, as to whether the ' theme of the story of "Outcast1' offered an accurate character charac-ter izal ion of feminine character. This quest ion came up on account of the story of the play picturing a married woman asserting her elaiui of love with a former admirer whom she had jilted. Does a woman always hold a claim ou a discarded lover? Is it true to feminine fem-inine lia t ure to always feel a proprietary propri-etary interest in a man she once loved and discarded? Such questions as these are raised in the problems the play brings to the foreground. Tho story deals with Geoffrey Sherwood, Sher-wood, a young English in an, who has been jilted by a young Judy who later married a wealthy baronet. Sherwood becomes despondent and as a result is addicted to stimulants. He meets another an-other young woman and the two find much iu common to institute a friendship. friend-ship. M iriam is a woman of unusual type and a companionship and courtship court-ship is started. The young woman of his choice is in an entirely different station in life than he. but through association as-sociation the t wo arc apparently matched. At this point in tho story his former love appears and asserts her right to his regam, even though she is married. Suffice to say, some momentous mo-mentous questions ate involved, especially especial-ly from the standpoint of tho feminine nature, ilas his former sweetheart any c laim on his love, after having jilted him ajul in view of the present circumstances? cir-cumstances? This is a sample of some of the questions that stand out ia bold relief in the story for the women and the men to answer. Between these questions and the interesting and effective ef-fective characters that are brought into play the story primarily deals with the redemption of Geoffrey and his laic love, in spite of the counter inciuences that are brought into tho account. The action of the play takes place in London and is given a remarkably effective atmosphere of reality with the rich costumes and brilliant scenic effects ef-fects that, are scheduled. The starve management of the "Wilkes is dec ivied: y pleased -with the materia! Mr. Pa vies 's v. ",,- play offers for the talents ef the company and is of the opinion that the Wilkes- patrons are going go-ing to receive a real treat from the effective ef-fective manner in which the plav meets the artistic qualities of the individuals of the eonipnnv. Miss Nana Bryant will bo back in the cast in the leading role, after a week's vacation during the production of ''The Littlest Kebel" last week. Paul Harvey, Har-vey, who plnyrd the leading man's role, will be seen in an attractive part, with the support of Cliff Thompson and the ether members of the Wilkes romprenv. who have been cast in appropriate char ac ' frs. Monday night the regular souvenir feat ure will be followed, and an auto- graphed photograph of one of the Wilkes company will be distributed to the patrons of the theater. A new picture pic-ture is given out each Monday night, which includes a series of photographs of all the members of tho company. The identity of the photo is withheld until the time for distribution. v I , ITH a perfect medley of lovely IPW femininity, good music, some of V the best comedians of the year, a thrill or two and some excellent excel-lent soDgs and patter, the Pautages iluad Show is scoring one of the biggest big-gest successes of the season at the local Vantages. When Manager Newman announced the Road tihow for this week Pantages patrons expected something out of the ordinary, and they haven't been disappointed. dis-appointed. When five pianists are playing on the stage at the same time they not only are offering a musical turn tliat is considerably con-siderably out of the ordinary, but, as is the case at the Pantages theater this week, they are likely to carry away a large portion of the honors of the programme. pro-gramme. Will J. Ward and his piano girls give every indication of proving the biggest hit of the entire Pantages vaudeville bill at the Pantages, and thev through until "Tuesday evening of this week. Opening next Wednesday afternoon comes Al Fields, Broadway's favorite comedian, and company, presenting the comedy sketch, "The Misery of a ""Hansom ""Han-som Cab." Other acts on the bill will be the "Boarding School Girls," with Tommy Allen at their head; Cooke and Rothern, entertainers par excellence; Rawley and Ton ton, a new act over the Pantages circuit; Bell Barcus and company in "An Tnside Job,'' and Reed and Wood, together with Helen Holmes in the final installment of "The Girl and the Game.

She is a "find" of Ida Fuller's, Ful-ler's, who knuWB as much about the various whims of terpsichore as anyone. Miss Fuller not only discovered Ga.ra Zora, but is sponsoring her appearance in American vaudeville. This newest and. iu many respects, most sensational performer from a country known tor its weirdj uncanny products, is a symbolic sym-bolic dancer, and her symbol is nature, her programme comprising three unm-bers. unm-bers. "The Spirit of the Storm,1' "The Nymph of tho Waves" and "The Goddess, God-dess, of Flame. ' ' Gara Zora-'s pantomime in those efforts ef-forts tells a story much more satisfactorily satisfac-torily than most speech could be capable capa-ble of. Gara Zora's past is a blank. In some way or other, she drifted from her native country to England. There she came under the notice of Miss Fuller, Ful-ler, and with Miss Fuller's help she became an emphatic sensation. Like every artist worth while, she eventually eventu-ally found her way to America, and hefe she has been hailed as decidedly extraordinary. Gara Zora will appear as another of tlie features on this week 's Orpheum bill. The Four Sultanas are a mixed quartette quar-tette of particularly fine vocalists. Their offering is called "An Oriental Betrothal," and it affords a liberal opportunity which has been taken advantage ad-vantage of to the fullest extent of picturesque settings and costuming. The, richness of the orient is in evidence at all times, and th beauty of the Four Sultanas is not confined to their singing sing-ing voices. The two young women possess pos-sess persona charm that is exceedingly attractive. In their ensemble number.-' and solos they show fine vocal attainment, attain-ment, while their ability is also manifested mani-fested by a bit of acting which is required re-quired at times. As dancers, Fred Warren and Effie Conley shine resplendently. It is not only their nimble feet that command attention, but also their splendid voices, the songs they have selected and the bright flow of dialogue put together form a brilliant vaudeville mixture. Mr. Warren is a clean-cut young man, with plenty . of pleasing personality. Miss Conley is a dainty and vivacious bit of lovable femininity. Their act is called "On the Boardwalk," and satirizes an incident at the seashore. The phonograph has been Ed. Morton Mor-ton 's' advance agent, Ed is widely known in vaudeville, but between seasons sea-sons he sings into phonographs, and this music keeps his name and an idea of the quality of his voice and the originality origi-nality of his songs continually before tho public. Mr. Morton is a singing comedian,' His comedy is new, bright and crisp. His voice has quality and range, and his songs, most of them written writ-ten by himself, are distinctive. A miscellaneous assortment of freak and even weird bicycles, together with the willingness to undertake the most daring feats, materially enhances the somewhat different ae.t of its kind which Valentine and Bell will offer, and which they call ' ' The Furniture Removers." "Green Goods" is a comedy sketch to be presented hy Arthur Stone and Marion Hayes, which fells' of the efforts ef-forts of the small town ent-up who at-temps at-temps to 1 ' kid ' ? a carnival show woman.
