TIME FOR CHRISTMAS BUYING

More Attention Iny Be Had BeforeRunli Bcsrins-

5Ier8hants of Washington are greatlypleased with the manner in which resi-dents of the city have responded to thesuggestion that Christmas shoppingshould be done early

Many already have made nearly alltheir Christmas purchases and are freefrom the thought and worry usually at-tendant upoh that annual duty Thestorekeepers are also through with theshowing of goods and making sales tothese persons

But the retail dealers are under the im-pression tlwt there are a great many whohave put oft purchase of Christmasgifts and that this number greatly exleeds those who have taken time by theforelock and have their Christmasshopping

Tho merchants think that many morethan the number who have k completedtheir shopping should come out this weekand examine tho large stocks Of goodsoffered for the holidays At loast moreattention can bo given customers beforethe real rush begins

AT LOCAL PLAYHOUSESMew National Annn HeltlM ShowThe entertainment nt the New National

Theater this weolr which drew a crowdedhouse the audience distinguished and typical of Washington at beet is calledon the programme The Parisian Modelbut the name really doesnt matterEverybody calls It the Anna HeldShow and that is a much more distinc-tive and apt title The hook such as it isis by Harry B Smith the music by MAX

Hoffman but the presiding genius of thewholo affair the man behind the gun-s Jt wore Is Eloronz Ziegfeld jr the

husband of Anna Held It Is he who isresponsible for much of the interpolatedmusic for the whichnone more gorgeous or ornate have beenseen lu a musical comedy and for thosetricks of stagecraft which make all ofthe shows which he produces like chain-ed doing from thecurtains rise to its fall

The story of The Parisian Model doesnot matter at all The only thing thatcounts is that the curtain goes up at

a stage brilliantly and artisticallylighted crowded from the back to thefootlights with nimblefooted smiling andpretty girls that tune succeeds tunedance succeeds dance and laugh suc-ceeds laugh With a rapidity and dex-

terity that no one cares to keep count ofcostumes are changed the most gorgeoushues all the colors of the rainbow all thebeauty of the peacock a kaleidoscope oftints silks satins jewels flowers eachpicture more striking than the last Thereare four scones and the show is a longone and yet through it all there ishardly a moment when the stage is notfilled with some now and startling num-ber There is never a pause in the funit is all one breathless dash of audacityand beauty that ends with the unlquoskating rink scene

In the first act which shows a dress-making establishment where Miss Heldis the model opportunity Is givenfbr the of Parisian gowns andthe star herself changes no less than eighttimes in the course of one song In thesecond act the feature is Miss Held inthat song which has been copied so ex-

tensively but never bofore sung properly-In Washington I Just Cant Make MyEyes Behave and another feature Is

Wont You Be My Teddy Excellent too was Ma Cherle and WontYou Be My Honey sung in French byM Leon

But all tho way through tho show thereis surprise after surprise There Is a finenumber In tho first act called TheWhistling Yankee Girl and a bully duetby Miss Hold and Otis Harlan called ALesson in Kissing Then in the secondact there Is the surprise of the artistsmodels a number that seems to promiseall sorts of things but which ends in asurprise that sends the audience into aroar of laughter Then Mr Harlan hasatopical song In Washington songthat hits pretty hard at some of the foi-bles of Washington society but whichwas received with a storm of applauselast night and got at least a dozen encores Another pretty song in this act Is

San Francisco Bay In the last aptthere is a number that is unique called

Bells in which a large chorus of prettygirls comes with sleigh bells attached totheir costumes and the tunes they playand the way they play them makes a de-cided hit

Following this comes the best song inthe show sung by Miss Held and MrLeoni Its Delightful to Be Marriedtuneful dainty and whistleable By aclever device the scene is shifted to theskating rink and the largo chorus ofgirls has been taught to skate gracefullyso that the picture Is both startling andpretty To help the act out there is MissBertha Mack a champion feminineskater and Mr Earle Reynolds anotherchampion skater with some chaps whodo on skates comedy stunts that areunique

The Parisian Model would seem to bethe last word In the way of an Anna Heldshow Certainly here Manager Ziegfeldhas surpassed all his previous efforts itIs a better In adifferent his other success

Tho Follies of 1907Miss Held who is center of at

traction in this show shows decided Iriiprovement in her art She never lookedbetter than she did last night In spiteof her recent illness and she plays with-a verve and vivacity that ls charmingShe is surrounded by a firstclass com-pany Otis Harlan to whose hands thecomedy is intrusted Is very funny hecan both sing and dance and his InWashington was one of the hits of theevening In Mr Henri Leoni Mr Zlegfield has secured an actor who can reallysing He has a voice of remarkably finequality and he uses It to great advantageMiss Edith Decker is another singer whoadds much to the entertainment Cleverwork is done In a small part by MrEugene Redding and F Stanton Heckwas very funny as Hercule

But back of the principals and con-tributing much of the gayety and Joyousness and laughter of the show Is the bigchorus of pretty girlsgirts who danceand sing as if they really liked It so thattheir merriment Is contagious and car-ries over the footlights That MauriceLevi Is the musical director also helps alotThat the show was heartily enjoyedwas evidenced by the frequency of theencores the fervency of the applause-It showed that The Parisian Model Is asure cure for the blues an enemy to dullcare No wonder It ran thirtyfive weeksIn New York HECTOR FULLER

Columbia Brewiters MillionsThe opening performance of Brewsters

Millions with Edward Aleles In the titlerole At the Columbia Theater was occomplishod with the most pAPPY sur-roundings a largo audience being in at-tendance

The play is a dramatization of GeorgeBarr McCutchcons story by WlnchellSmith and Byron Ongley crystallzing thestory into four vigorous acts and particu-larly preserving the comedy elements ofthe tale

It is tho story of Montgomery Brewsterwho Inherits a fortune from his miserlygrandfather who had 111 treated the herosmother and only lOft his money to thegrandson because there was no oneelse to leave It to Shortly after amaternal uncle dies leaving Brewster7000000 upon condition that within a

year he dissipates every cent of theprevious inheritance and presents himself at the expiration of the time limita pauper

Monty accepts the conditions and startsout to fulfill thorn and finds it quite ashard to got rid of a fortune as to acquireone He subsidizes a fake business houseemploying most of his male friends atprincely salaries play angel to anopera company incidentally Including aprima donna risen from the chorus ranksand takes a large party around tho worldon a yachting cruise almost alienatesthe affections of Peggy Grey behas loved since childhood and seemsabout to accomplish his contract byfinancing to the extent of his last halfmillion when he is nearly thwarted byhis friends declaring him Insane and taking charge of the ship during a stormbut ho accomplishes his purpose by hoist-Ing a distress signal and making himselfliable to a salvage charge of 500000 thepayment of which makes him pennilessand In form to receive his uncles fortune The wholo proceedings Is accom-panied with a succession of remarkablyhumorous events with of course thenecessary underlying strata of sentimentThe story In Its dramatic form fully sus-tains the reputation of the novel as ameans of prolonged and delightful enter-tainment

The scenic arrangements of the pelcego considerably beyond ordinary boundsespecially In the third act when the ac-tion Is carried forward on the dock of ayacht cruising the waters of the Med-iterranean The sea vista Is painted withunusual fidelity to nature and the rollingof the ship the storm and other featuresare accomplished with great realism

The principal figure in the cast Is MrGeorge Aleles as Monty Brewster HeIs an unctuous comedian carrying thecomedy periods to a high degree of mer-riment and Is very effective In the melodramatic point which marks the climaxand Miss Mary Ryan as Peggy makes ademure and pretty heroine They are assisted by a strong cast lead by JosephWoodburn as Joseph McCloud SumifrGard as Vanderpool Leslie Bassett as Hopper Harrison and EmilyLytton as Mrs De MUle

The play had a long run in New Yorkand seems destined to carry the successalong the road

The Belnsco The Girl of the GoldenWest

What is the third and said to be thelast engagement of Blanche Bates InDavid Belascos melodrama of

Girl of the Golden West began attho Belasco Theater last night

The longevity exhibited by this play Isnot especially remarkable for a Belascoproduction but The Girl Is less of aproduction as the term goes and moreof a thriller than Is usually developedfnftn the fertile Belasco brain and asturlllers In picturesque garb are rare Intho higher class theaters The Girl hasenjoyed considerable popularity that aplay of finer grain might possibly havefailed to command

Compared with a play of manners likeTruth The Girl of the Golden

West seems even uncouth but its at-mosphere is so thoroughly vitalized bydramatic Interest that oven outside ofthe one or two now familiar melodramatic tricks in Its construction there Isenough of plausible action to make it agenuine play and one which while dis-tinctly localized and narrow In physicalscope holds a theme broad enough toconvey a good moral lesson

Miss Bates Is a charming artiste whoIn everything she does shows sincerityand freshness only second to her nativetalent Herself a daughter of Californiashe has caught thoroughly the spirit of

The Girl and she delivers her lineswith great feeling She Is especially con-vincing in the first act and it was ahardened theatergoer indeed whose eyesdid not moisten at The Girls recitalof the struggles of the hardy pioneerswhoso burdens and joys she could sowell appreciate-

In the character of Jack Rance thegambler and sheriff Cuyler Hastings wasa noteworthy figure He makes no attempt to vary the part from the concep-tion which Frank Keenan so thoroughlystamped upon his audiences and in morethan one instance the difference in theactors of the part was not noticeable soclosely does Mr Hastings resemble hispredecessor It Is much to Hastings
