When the curtain goes up at the Avenue theatre next Monday evening for the first performance of "Daddy Long Legs" In Vancouver the audience will see a dramatic organization that is Henry Miller's special pride. Mr.

Miller picked every member of this came last winter at a time when some of the most talented and best known players In New York were Idle because of the business depression thut followed the outbreak of the European war, and each selection proved almost ideal. It was this same company that Mr. Miller took to California for the special engagement in Kan Francisco, arranged in connection with the opening of the Panama Pacific exposition. "Paddy Ldng Legs" upset the theatrical traditions of California by running five consecutive weeks to capacity business at the Columbia theatre In San Francisco, achieving a record that is certain to stand for many years. "No other play in the history of the American stage, prior to "Daddy Long Legs" had been offered in the high price theatres for a period of time greater than three consecutive weeks in any city west of Chicago.

This remarkably fine acting organization, which is one of the biggest and best companies Henry Miller has ever assembled, includes Henee Kelly, who created the role of Judy Abbott in Mr. Miller's own company: Byron Beasloy, who will be remembered as Margaret Illington's leading man in "Kindling," as Jervis Pendleton, and all the other members of Mr. Miller's special California company. gome idea of the high standard set for this caste may be (gathered from the fact that two roles of secondary importance are played by Mr. and Mrs.

E. A. Eberle, who have been stage celebrities since the days of the Civil War. The box office sale opens Friday morning, Nov. 26.

HAS1TNGS AmGRANVIUESr. Huns. War driven conditions in Europe have to the American continent i some of the best of European vaucle ville performers and acrobatic troupes. Among those who have been i forced across the Atlantic temporarily to earn their livelihood on this side i are the four members of the Komia troupe Miles, Lydia, Marthe, Ida and Adnenne Nachtwey. These sisters I are acrobats of a very high order.

I They have won the highest en miniums throughout the I'nited states, and the management of Pun tages has been fortunate in securing i them fur a tour on its circuit. I Mile. Lydia Nachtwey, the eldest of I the sisters, related in French to The I World yesterday afternoon some of 1 the experiences of her sisters and herself. I'IihI From Anlweiyp. The troupe were in Antwerp when the Germans opened their bombard ment of the city.

When it was known that the town was to be entered by the enemy troops. Mile. Lydia deter mined to flee into Holland. I'nder the conditions which obtained who was unable to take her luggage, and some weeks later she and her sisters sailed for New York without any paraphernalia of any kind. I'pun arrival in America they were able to secure a contract with Hingling Bros, and then with another company.

After completing their last contract they were booked with I'antagcs circuit and, are now engaged in giving performances throughout the west. Mile. Nachtwey traveled through Belgium and she knows something of Hun atrocities. She has listened to the sobbfng tales of scores of women in dire distress, and it is no wonder that she bears in her heart a passionate hatred of the Uerman soldier. Her own brother, Jean Nachtwey, of the 108th Regiment of Infantry, one of the strongest men in France and an expert bayonet fighter, was killed while the enemy was shelling a cathedral town last autumn, and her brother Henri was severely wounded in fierce hand to hand fighting on the Y'pres Solssons front.

Uccorated by Joffre. "Sly brother Henri was decorated for his valor by our General Joffre, himself," said Mile. Lydia with natural pride. "He was a grenade thrower and he recovered a thousand metres of trenches in a combat with German bombers." During this fight the young soldier, who Is a non commissioned officer, was severely wounded in the back of the head. With his brother Raphael he is now back on the firing line.

"The Germans are good soldiers when all that is necessary is to shell towns, destroy cathedrals, and insult women," declared Mile. Lydia passionately. "But, ah, they are getting a taste of It in the Vosges. There our brave troops are able to show them what a bayonet charge is like. "When our men get into them they throw up their hands and want to surrender.

Bon Seigneur, they are bandits, Indescribable barbarians. But they are not winning. The Russians are making them play Into their hands. In the west Joffre is saving his men, and the Germans are throwing theirs away. The Hussions and the British can get more men, but where are the Germans to get them from?" Decorated by Queen.

Adrlenne, the youngest of the sisters, received a decoration from the Queen of England when she was onlv seven years of age. Since coming to the American continent she has received many prizes. Once the four sisters gave an open air equilibrist entertainment This was at Brighton Beach, near New York, and excited most enthusiastic comment. CONCERT IN IMPERIAL Programme Given in Aid of Prisoners of War Fund. A concert of good quality organized by Mr.

Herbert J. Cave and Miss Cave In the interests of the Prisoners of War Fund, waa given at the Imperial Theatre last night and was one more manifestation of tho generous response of the musical profession of this city to the call for help. Mr. Edgar Meyrlck opened the programme with a spirited rendering of "The Deathless Army," responding to a recall with a song entitled "Knitting." A Chinese imitation by Mr. Dempster was an extremely clever piece of mimicry, a delightful epitome on the psychological nebulosity of the Chinaman in the police court.

Miss Mae George Is a dramatic soprano of wide range and excellent cultivation, with soaring proclivities of tho most confident and finished order. Her singing: of Massanet's beautiful "Elegte," with violin obll gato, most tenderly rendered by Miss Ulanche was one of the no tabilia of the programme. Miss George responded to urgent recall with a charming bit ot musical coquetry, "Sloe Eyes," from the opera "Oingalee," given with the dramatic piquancy and easy gesture of the operatic artist, which is surely Miss George's destiny If fortune be her friend. What a delightful Carmen she would make! Mrs. Baylcy's contralto Is one of the most gracious rewards to the music lovers of this city; soft and aweet and most potently plaintive and poignant when the need arises.

Her songs included "Sympathy," "Von and Love" and "For You Alone." Mr. H. J. Cave chose the familiar and appropriate songs, "The RECIPt TO DARKEN GRAY HAIR This Home Made Mixture Darkens Gray Hair and Kcmovc.t Dandruff To a half pint of water add: Bay Hum 1 vz.

Miss Atkinson recited "A Soldier of France" from Oulda's "Twa Flags," a remarkable feat of memory, but the piece Is not very rich In the high lights of effective drama and was scarcely well chosen. A. B. A SUCCESSFUL DEBUT Mr.

Abernethy's Recital is a Fine Musical Treat. Mr. Emerson Abernethy, who has been studying abroad for the past eight years, made his formal debut In Vancouver on Wednesday evening, when he gave a song recital of wide range and excellence. The audience hall in the Hotel Vancouver was crowded with a gathering representing the great majority of lovers of high class music in the city. The occasion proved a triumph for the artist.

Mr. Abernethy has a baritone voice of exceptional quality and good range and he fully evidenced not only a thorough training but an artistic temperament. His selections consisted of four groups Italian, French, Old Knglish and modern, which exemplified the versatility of his vocal girts. His most difficult number was tho prologue from "11 l'agllacci," to which he gave a highly satisfying rendering. His repertoire Included a number of Italian iwd French chansons new to Vancouver and among tho most popular of these were "Quanno F.re 1'agglo," by Verdi, and D'Hardilot's "Sans Tot." He was assisted by Miss Elsie Alexander, who, in addition to playing the accompaniments most satisfactorily, scored a success in her piano solo.

The programme was as follows: Song II l'rologo, from "l'agllacci" It. Leoncavallo Songs (a) Serenata I'letro Mascagnl (b) Triste Aprlle Enrico de Leva (c) I'overa Mamiuu Tosti (d) Quando ere I'aggio, from "Fal staff" Guiseppo Verdi Songs (a) Arioso (from C.
