Orders for seats are pouring Into the box office of the Salt Ike Theater for the production of the latest cvmic opera success. "Red Feather." Miss Grace Van Studdiford and the original production from the L,yrlc theater. New York, will be seen. It promises to be the most gorgeously gor-geously staged musical piece presented here this season. j der Is that she la allowed to leave the crowds of admiring people who nlsntiy witness her almost supernatural exhibitions exhibi-tions of the power of mind over matter and her absolute control of hypnotic forces that seem to give her absolute sway over the minds of those about her. as well as control of inanimate things. She makes no claims for herself. Miss Fay only knows that she Is able to do certain things hear thoughts as If they were spoken spo-ken words, to look Into the future, and predict coming events, and to ascertain at will the location of Invisible object. She calls the act "Somnolency" and that suits It perhaps as well as any other, for the fair magician seems to be In a state of profound slumber, and unconscious of physical objects around her. She also possesses the power to perform feats of sleight-of-hand and legerdermaln. She Is surrounded by a capable supporting company. There will be special matinees for. ladles only on Wednesday and Saturday Satur-day afternoon. orchestra of "Red Feather' The engagement engage-ment begins Mondav night and will run all the week, with the exception of Saturday Sat-urday night, with matinees on Saturday. Dustfn Farnum and Helen Holmes will play the two principal roles in the dramatization drama-tization of "The Virginian." when it comes to the theater Thursday. April 13. Owen Wister, the author, asserts that Mr. Farnum Is the living, breathing image of the cowbov hero of the story. Frank Campeau is to be the villain, Trampas. The balance of the cast, having been selected se-lected by Manager Kirke La Shelle. may be expected to be emfnently competent. . . "It is no exaggeration to say that The Other Girl' is the funniest and most entertaining en-tertaining comedy'of the season,' declared the New -York Sun when Augustus Thomas' lattat comedy was firet produced in New York last year. New York thought so too, and kept Lionel Barrymore and "TheOther Girl" there the entire season. sea-son. Charles Frohman now gives local theater-goers their first opportunity to tee Barrymore in this piece on April 24. "The Marriage of Kitty" was not exactly ex-actly a society event. There were no wedding bells, no bridesmaids, no rice and old shoes, no bedecking of the baggage of the newly wedded pair with white ribbons and significant inscriptions. In fact,- the ceremonial part of the matrimonial contract con-tract Is supposed to occur between acts. But Kitty was married. Just the same, for if she had not been there would have been no story and no play. It only requires re-quires six people to present "The Marriage Mar-riage of Kitty," but those six produce enough merriment for a "dozen. The play is really bright, lively and entertining. Max Figman as Sir Reginairf Beleize is irresistibly ir-resistibly droll, while Delia Ninen as Kitty Kit-ty Is Irresistibly fascinating. Franklin Hall as John Frances tills the bill entirely, entire-ly, while Donah Bennino 1s entirely satisfactory satis-factory as Madam de Semiano. The other characters are minor, but well sustained bv Ella Aubev and Mllo Bldon. "The 1 ' ' GEACE VAN STUDDIFORD, . . In "Sed Peather," Salt Lake Theater All Next Week.

From all that can bo learned about this most mysterious little lit-tle woman, her appearances everywhere have been creating the most profound sensations, and that her fame as a priestess priest-ess of some occult science Is constantly spreading. Mlsa Fay has recently toured through Canada, and her progress has been marked by triumphs rarely accorded to the public characters In that rather conservative district.
