“Kitty MacKay’’ at the Shubert 
“Kitty MacKay,’’ the brilliant 
comedy of love and laughter, from 
the pen of Catherine Chisholm 
Cushing, will be presented at the 
Shubert Theatre, Boston, for a lim- 
ited engagement, beginning Mon- 
day, March 22. 
That ‘‘Kitty’’ is a success, no one 
can gainsay, for it takes a comedy 
of exceptional merit and interest to 
amuse the ‘‘blase’’ playgoers of the 
metropolis for more than a_ year, 
which ‘‘Kitty’’ has done. 
This merry romance is said to 
possess a subtle charm and a heart 
interest that appeals to all. Win- 
some ‘‘Kitty,’’ a Scotch Cinderella, 
4s taken from a life of poverty and 
ill-treatment among the Highlands 
to fashionable London, where she ds 
quick to learn that ‘fall that ghit- 
ters is not gold.’’ When poor 
‘‘Kitty’’ is denied marriage to the 
man she loves, she carries the 
audience with her in her sorrow. 
“The Lilac Domino”’ 
The seat sale, reservations and 
mail orders for ‘‘The Lilac Dom- 
ino’’ at the Majestic Theatre, Bos- 
ton, indicates that the fourth week 
of the engagement, which begins 
next Monday, March 22, is only the 
beginning of its immensely popular 
stay. This production seems to 
embrace every feature of high-class 
entertainment, from grand opera 
music to the catchy variety of 
lyrical fun and dance. Miss Ethel 
Pettit gives a most excellent por- 
trayal of the mysterious girl in the 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
lilac domino. She is so very young, 
and yet acts with such finished art, 
that it is easy to believe she studied 
technique from the incomparable 
tragedienne, Sara Bernhardt, as 
well as music, during her residence 
abroad. Wilfrid Douthitt, the Eng- 
lish baritone, who has the role of 
Count Andre de St. Armand, who 
falls in love with the sleeping beau- 
ty in the lilac domino, is refresh- 
ingly spontaneous in his love-mak- 
ing, and the mellow richness of his_ 
voice is an ethical joy to the 
audience. There are fully twenty 
song hits in the operetta, and a 
blanket of melody envelops each 
act. Between the second and third 
acts there is a musical intermezzo 
which is not the least important 
part of the program. It accom- 
panies a display of Kinemacolor 
moving pictures, depicting a Battle 
of Flowers and carnival scenes at 
Nice. 
The Wilbur 
On Monday evening, March 22, 
‘A Pair of Sixes’? will not only 
begin the fourth month of its sen- 
sational run at the Wilbur Theatre 
in Boston, but it will also celebrate 
its 100th performance in the Hub 
City. On that occasion valuable 
and beautiful souvenirs will be

This is the season of year when 
the Breeze is besieged by people

the advance reservations for that 
evening already indicate that the 
supply of seats will not be equal to 
the demand. { 
Of the 120,000 people who have 
already seen this farce at the Wuil-

wholesome fun.

modest prices.

Easy Enough 
Just before the capture of Savannah General 
Logan, with two or three of his staff, entered the depot 
at Chicago to take the cars east on his way to rejoin 
his command. The General, being a short distance in 
advance of the others, stepped on the steps of a ear, 
but was stopped by an Irishman with: 
‘“‘Ye can’t go in there.’’ 
‘““Why not?’’ asked the General. 
‘‘Because them’s a leddies caer, and no gentle- 
man’ll be goin’ in there without a leddy. There’s wan 
sate in that caer over there if yees want it.”’ . 
‘‘Yes,’’ replied the General. ‘‘I see there is one 
seat, but what shall I do with my staff?’’ 
‘“Oh , yer staff!’’ was the reply. “‘Go take the 
sate and stick yer staff out of the windy.”’ 
if 
The week brought around Evacuation Day, but 
most folk remember it by the name of an Irish Saint.
