"Th Cheater," is an adaptation from the Ger man success, "Der Plpplemensch," by Arthur Ltpschltz and Wllhelm Jacoby Mr. Mann having secured the rights for adaptation and production after witnessing the reception accorded the play in Berlin, where It Is still running. In "The Cheater," Mr. Mann assumes the role of GodCrled Pllttersdorf, a Ger man state senator, who has an obsession fr righteousness and Is at work upon the rassage of a bill that will close all ques tlonable resorts and dance halls at an early hour. In the midst of this he finds himself heir to a somewhat shady place; his righteousness takes wings and he makes a ridiculous endeavor to conceal his downfall, at the same time attempting to follow specifically the conditions of the bequest, which makes it imperative for him to give the newly acquired business his personal attention.

This he does for a time, but is finally caught while entering his own house late at night, disguised as a burglar. The original company will be seen here, including Emily Ann YVellman, Madame Mathilde Cottrelly, Jessie Carter, Marie Howe, John E. Kelly, Charles Halton, Edward Horton, Rollln Holden, Edwin May-nard and others. Aborn Company to Sing "Madam Butterfly" at Academy.

During the Bprlng months an army of workmen have been actively engaged constructing the various novelties which are to be introduced this year. Dreamland has taken on a new color scheme. While white has always been the predominating shade, with either a tinge of blue, green or yellow, the park has been transformed this season into red and white. Not only will the tower be found to have taken on a new splendor, but this season's visitors will discover that a new and more expansive entrance has been supplied. Another Important change wl'i be the removal of the ballroom and restaurant from the pier to a new building immediately inside of the main entrance.

What was formerly the ballroom will be utilized as a skating rink. Under the rink there will be built a spacious pony track where fifty Shetland ponies will be kept for the amusement of the children. The wild animal arena will this year be occupied by Ferrari's trained wild animal show. Joseph G. Ferrari, the owner of this erthtbitton, came to America sixteen years ago, when he waB Frank Bostock's partner and manager of the Bostock animal show, -which was then for the first time exhibiting on Coney Island.

During the past eight years Colonel Ferrari has had his own animal Bhow exhibiting in all parts of the world, but principally in England, France and Cuba. "Creation" will continue to be a feature of The various rides, glides and slides have been generally enlarged upon. There has been built a new double track racing coaster. The Canals of Venice and the Tub Ride have been enlarged and improved. Hell Gate has been provided with new features and the L.

A. Thompson' Scenic Railroad has been extended. Tho Incubator show, which has been a feature of the park since its opening, will again be a feature. So also will be the Dl ins Girls. An important addition will be the Sacrifice, a Biblical pantomime taken from the third chapter of Genesis.

Another new show is called, the PH. In this there will be exhibited tho Cavo of the Winds, the Chamber of Horrors, the Mirror Maze and Paris by gaslight. Another interesting show, new this year, will be the Siege of Richmond. This is a spectacular, mechanical effort depicting with miniature figures the battles of Petersburg and Richmond, with Grant and Lee as opposing generals. The Borneo village will be replaced by a Curio Village, In which human curiosities have been gathered from the world over.

The Dreamland Theater, which last season had a spectacle named "Egyjt," has been transformed into "The Orient," with new front and entirely new features. A particularly interesting feature this year will be a miniature subway, with tiny cars, that will encircle the grounds. The bathing pavilion on the ocean has been considerably extended. There will be many free shows going on continuously on the grounds, the principal attraction being a two ring circus 1n constant operation. Dreamland's Shoot-the-Chutes remain as of old, and there be several bands of music.

BRADY" Announces the Eminent Character Actor MR. LOUIS 1 the Lyceum Theater, will begin on Monday. The successful run of Mr. Smith's comedy must close at that time owing to contracts for Mrs. Fiske's visit to California In this play, which will Immediately follow.

The fiftieth performance of "Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh" In this city will occur on Tuesday evening. There seems to be no doubt that the Folies Bergere hns caught the fancy of this town. One of many reasons seems to be that this theater-with-a-dlfference, In Forty-sixth street, off Broadway, which combines with the character of playhouse that of restaurant and Parisian cabaret show, gives playlovers the-opportunity to enjoy what they go to see with an un-constrnint possible only where space is more liberally allowed than In the average theater, and the audience does not feel that It Is making a business of looking and listening. At the end of ten months of unprecedented and unabated popularity, "The Concert" will close for the season on Saturday evening, June 3, to be resumed again In September, with the Bame cast of players.

Were It not for David Be-lasco's invariable custom to give his artists a good summer's rest, "The Concert" might run indefinitely, hot weather notwithstanding. One week more remains for Blanche Bates In "Nobody's Widow," at the Hud-Bon Theater, at the end of which time the curtain will be rung down upon another of David Belasco's successes of the season. CorBe Payton has selected Mrs. Leslie Carter's succcsb, "Zaza," as the attraction for the second week at the Grand Opera House, Twenty-third street and Eighth avenue, where the members of the Corse Payton Stock Company last week made a most auspicious start on their all-summer engagement. The Eden Musee artists are now working industriously, preparing the figures and costumes for the new group showing the scenes at Westminster during the forthcoming coronation of King George V.

The figures are made from the latest photographs of the King, and the costumes are a reproduction of the originals to be used in the coming ceremonies. The Bavarian Volk Players at the Irving Place Theater will continue another week acting, singing and dancing In the various plays of their repertoire. Three plavs will be presented, Monday and Tuesday nights the offering being "Le-neii von on Wednesday and Thursday nights the Bavarians will appear in their most successful farce comedy with songs, "Der Vice Co-operator," which will be presented for the first time in this country, while on Friday and Saturday evenings "Jaegerblut," a comedy in four acts, will be the bill. MANHATTAN BEACH CONCERTS Giovanni E. Conterno Appointed Bandmaster, and Has Elaborate Plans.

Giovanni E- Conterno has been appointed bandmaster for the coming season at Manhattan Beach. He Is now recruiting a band of thirty pieces of whleh a largp share of the wind instrumentalists will come from the Metropolitan Opera House and Philharmonic orchestras. Mr. Conterno expects to mnke the season at Manhntlan, musically, the most eventful in some years, despite the fact that he will succeed both Gilmore and Sousa as the leader In charge of the concerts at the resort. The season will begin on June 22 and will last till Labor Day, with concerts every evening and special matinee programmes on Saturdays and Sundays.

Mr. conterno Is one of the best-known l-hiidmasters In the country. He is the son of the late Luciano Conterno and both as bandmaster and composer has riade an enviable record.
