Drugget This mammoth production will be at the Steward, appearing at this pop ular playhouse on January 1. ' This mere announcement cannot carry with It the full strength of tht event. There was a time when such attractions as "Rubes In Toyland" J were denied local theatergoers because of fear of manugvr that there would be speculation on the merit of a New York success en-tour, but lately It has been demonstrated that the biggest of ferings can be brought to the doors l the people, and hence the -wedding oJ a great many ordinary bookings am' the advent of shows that are worth of price and patronage. t "Babes In Toyland" comes with practically a special train, tor two modern coaches are required to han dle the company, and two of tho larg est baggage cars used to tranHfei the great quantity of Scenery and effects used In this wonderful success. So cleverly conceived by Glen Mas Don ough and, Victor Herbert. The company Is complete and the chorus is one of the most rtrractlve on the road. The mu. it o: Ihe sort thst lingers and there is a vein of comedy that blends excellently with the spec tator. There are so many songs In "Babes In Toyland" th.tt every taste U gratified among the ' many brilliant musical numbers which Victor Herbert wrote for his most pretentious work may be mentioned, Floretta, Barney O'Flynn, Castle in Spain, Beatrice Bart-facts, I Can't Do That Bum, Jane: Slumber Deep, Before and After, Hv Won't Be Happy Till He Gets It. Tht Moon Will Help You Out, Bo-Poep: and the Song of Toyland. "Great Dlvldo" Plcasen. Coming as it did on the heels of sev eral comic operas, "The Great Divide" tvas a sharp contrast to the usual run of theatrical attractions, but thost who had been fortunate enough to at tend the production at the Stev.nr:" Saturday night, were well repaid.
