Musical Comedy Swings Audience Along in Happy Laughter. The Kalelgh News and Observer, of Sept. 30th, commenting on the appear ing Of "The Ked Hose,, in that city, and which cornea to Camden, Monday evening, Oct. 11th, says: "It whs a hig and delighted audience it tbe Acadeipy of: Music laqt night which applauded the exceptional of ferings (iikI laughed In harmony with jbc mirth found in "The Red Rose," a gay and musical comedy of the Parisian art quarter which tunefully and humorously- sang and danced its way into a pronounced success. The score of Robert Hood Bowers and the book of Harry B. and Robert B. Smith were In the keeping of a clever com pany which gave a performance of dash and brilliancy. t "Full of brightness and with a snap 'Ot - ? - from start to finish, "Tim Red Hose" brought pleasant surprise on pleasant surprise to Ralqlgb theatre goers. In the principal ' role of Loin, Miss Mar guerite I)e Von carried the burden of the performance, of course, her singing and dancing winning at nil tildes. Yet there are others, and she was given a close race for first place In popularity by several in the cast, notably by Miss Edith Carlisle in the role of Ciyp. In the comedy division' Maurice Darcy and George Williams were laugh makers in the roles of Alonzo Lorimer and Silas Plant, parts in which they have been constantly winning audiences for the past throe years. Karl Stahl, who rendered the character of Baron Leblance, ami is well remembered here from his engage ment with Grace von Stufford In "The Paradise of Mahomet" won fresh lau rels last night. Jethro Warner, a tenor with an exceptionally fine voice, Is another who Is well known here, hnv- j Inj?

I)oUald Archer, who gave n particularly fine Interpretation of the funny English chappie* was last seen here with James Ti Powers in "Ilaviina," ami Wlllmr Oux, who added to the humor in the role of Spiegel was here In "Alina; Where Do You Live?'' "From a musical standpoint "The Red Hose," Is a notable exception to works of Its kind, having a long list of line numbers, twenty in all, ranging from light, frivolous catch-the^ear jingles to compositions which ? such as the finale ensemble of the second net, for instance ? get into the class of grand opera. Among the numbers par ticularly well sung last night were "IJohemla," and "Roses and Sunshine," these being given numerous encores, while Miss De Von and. the men who assist ed ma do u distinct hit lit "Men, Men. Men." "The delight of the music was added t?i I v .the dancing, tills featuring strongly In the run of the sljow, the wildly popular fox trot l>eing given Its whirlwind Inning In "The Students' Glide" numl>er, this having to he re lientcil time and again In response to vigorous applause. In scenic features "The Hcd Ilose" in particularly effec tive, three most complete settings he ihg shown. Following on the drahs and sombre shadings of the lirst^ act; interior of a typical artist's studio, the brilliant and colorful second act setting made an especially tine impres sion. The costumes also are of v rich ness and quality to reflect credit, ev erything spick and span and new. And the chorus of pretty young girls, with fresh and tuneful voices, added a zest to every part of the enjoyable per formance." stands ran WHITB 1(1 us, (imrrtMir l>tip!or???
