Br. Monday Mallne SAM HOWE'S JOLLITIES of 1920 IM SINUAV CONCKKT nnn Certainly there has been in music comedies of this season and last enough of the "Oriental motif" to satisfy, if not to satiate, the theatregoer. But a happy exception is, I think, represented by the exquisite and somewhat fantastic Chinese legend presented panto-mimically in "Honeydew," the Zinv balist opus, at the Casino. This is, by the way, a music comedy well worth your idle hour. William Faversham, in "The Prince and the Pauper," will begin an engagement in Montreal tonight.

"The Sign on the Door," "Lassie" and "Not So Long Ago" are three of last season's attractions which are gratifying inhabitants of the outlying districts. They are respectively at the Shubert-Ri-viera, the Shubert-Crescent and the Majestic, in Brooklyn. The Globe Theatre is being refurbished for the presentation next week of "Tip Top," with Fred Stone. Mr. Oliver Morosco has engaged Beatrice Noyes, the brash young person of "Marry the Poor Girl," for a period of three years: He plans to feature her in "A Lady for a Night," Hutcheon Boyd's new comedy.

Nantte Roland Blythe Raoul Challoner Lon Chaney Corporal Stone "Buck" McDougall. MacDonald Duncan McDougall, Melbourne MacDowell Old Roland Spottiswood Aitkin By BOYLE. You smell the pines and feel the silence when you see this week's picture of the untamed Northwest, i "Nomads of the North," and the charm of virgin woods and secret sparkling rivers makes you forget that it is, after all, just another James Oliver Curwood story, with plot and people but little different from his stories by other titles. The photoplay is excellent. Cer tain scenes, like the forest fire, or glimpses of the river with one of the ''nomads' paddling his silent way down-stream, rise to real beauty.

As for the acting, it is almost uniformly good. Lon Chaney keeps the high standard of his work in "The Miracle Man," and Betty Blythe is not too far from what we think a northern heroine should be. The plot is the typical three-cornered one. Nanette Roland awaits the return of her lover, Eaoul Challoner, who is twelve months overdue from a perilous expedition, and meanwhile the treacherous, cruel "Buck" MacDou- LATEST Gladys Milkr of "Irene" in Up-to-the-Minute Dress GLADYS MILLER is the fair-haired half of the pair of mannequins who are transformed, along with Irene, in the musical comedy of that name at the Vander-bilt. Theatre.

The plot of the piece would seem to indicate that while fine feathers may not actually make fine birds, they sho' do help a powerful lot! Miss Gladys is shown here wearing one of the newest autumn frocks and hats- A gall tries to win her love by fair means or fouL Throughout the many ups and downs of love's journey the two principals are followed and defend ed by a dog and bear, whose gam bols and antics are as tunny as tne cooings of-the baby in the latter half of the picture are winning. There are many breathless crises in the story, but the most thrilling is the escape through a burning forest, and the great moment when Challoner turns back to rescue the police officer who had come to arrest him for murder. If you want to escape from a too prosy metropolitan existence try picture as a fairy carpet to take you for an hour to the wild Northwest. CUT MCKS AND CLOSE UPS Burr Mcintosh, who plays the part of Squire Bartlett in "Way Down East," will appear as "The Soul of the Forest Primeval" in an Americanization masque to be presented at Scarsdale, N. on Columbus Day, when the village will formally dedicate its new park and playground.

Lil and th Club: Where will you find walls to hold so many photographs? Write to the stars ana'ask for their pictures. Uetter inclose a quarter. Maybe Mary Pickford ran out of photos. John-S.

New York clergy will be the guests at a special production of "Way Down East" next Monday morning. a I Gloria Swanson's first picture for; Paramount will be a story by a British author who wishes to -remain incog. called, "Everything For Sale." "The Lifted Veil" is the title of the first original play for the screen to come from the pen. of Henry Arthur Jones.

It's a strong melodrama, so they say. "LOHENGRIN" SUNG HERE AFTER MANY YEARS "Lohengrin," which has been under the ban together with other operas by German composers, was revived last night by Fortune Gal-lo's San Carlo Grand Opera Company at the Manhattan Opera House. It was warmly received for its interpretation, in the Italian language, and Anna Fitziu, American soprano, sang the leading role creditably. She was at home in the role of Elsa. and the title role was capably sang by Giuseppe Agostini, veteran tenor ot tne company..
