MUSIC AND DRAMA
Coburn Players Tomorrow.
"Electra" the Greek tragedy of Eu-
ripides, translated by Gilbert Murray,
will be given by the Coburn Players
at the Whitney Theater, Monday, Oc-
tober 21..
A novelty of the play is that the
scuem does not once change during the
entire length of the tragedy. The
scene of the whole play is laid in the
Greek mountains of Argos. The scen-
ic equipment showing the huge bould-
ers, the scraggley cypress trees and
the panoramic pastures was extremely
realistic. Particular attention has
been given the lighting, inasmuch as
the radius comes from above as real
sunshine. Shadows are cast, which
gives the groupings the effect of being
wrapped with out-of-door atmosphere.
As the result, from the gradual com-
ing of the morning to the set of the
sun and darkness at the close of the
drama is in poetic harmony with the
whole austere beauty of the play.
Mrs. Coburn will be seen in the title
role of "Electra" and Mr. Coburn in
the part of Orestes, Electra's brother.]
The costumes are simple, accurate aifd
in the barbaric color of the age.
"Passers By."
Charles Cherry, who this season has
become one of Charles Frohman's
stars, is a very dear personal friend
of Haddon Chambers, whose novel
comedy, "Passers-By," was one of last
season's biggest 'hits in New York,
where it drew capacity audiences for
four months at the Criterion theater.
It washat the insistent request of the
author that Mr Frohman sent Mr.
Cherry out in this play for his first
stellar tour. Mr. Cherry plays the
role of Peter Waverton and he is said
to do the best work of his long and
sucessful career as a leading actor.
Charles Frohman presents Charles
Cherry in "Passers-By" at the Whit-
ney Theater, Monday, Oct. 28.
Majestic Bookings.
Manager Lane of the Majestic thea-
ter has just received a list of many of
the important bookings that will be
here in the next few weeks. Aside
from the regulation vaudeville shows
edies in tabloid form presented in the

same manner as thatfof "The Two Ad-
inirals" Will be offered at the local
vaudeville house and the list includes,
"The Time, Place and the Girl," with
a cast of thirty people, "The Cat and
the Fiddle,"Mort Singer's" Honeymoon
Trail," Whitney's "Isle of Spice" and
"The Broken Idol," Gus Sun's "School
Days," "Paris by Night" with a cast
of twenty French pantomimists, "The
Devil and Tom Walker," Aramada
Grand Opera Company, "The Banjo
Phiends," and many others.
After three days of musical comedy
the Majestic theater will revert to the
regulation vaudeville bills tomorrow
night. The star feature will be a
sensational acrobatic act by the
famous Navaro Troupe. Elizabeth
Kennedy will present a one-act com-
edy entitled "Darby and Joan." Prince
and Deerie will offer a happy assort-
ment of song and dance numbers.
Kelter, a Scotch wire artist, will show
something new in this line and a pair
of musicians named Hously and Nich-
olas will play various musical instru-
ments. Next Thursday the chief at-
traction will be the great Saxon
Troupe of European dancers from the
Palace theater, London. Matinees
will be given every Tuesday, Wednes-
day, Friday and Saturday at 3:00
o'clock.
Schumann-Heink.
Schumann-Heink, the favorite for
many years of Ann Arbor audiences,
will give a song-recital on Tuesday,
evening in University Hall as the
opening concert of the Choral Union
series.
During the two years which have
elapsed since her last Ann Arbor ap-
pearance she has criss-crossed the
country many times in her numerous
tours, and has won more laurels than
ever if that be possible. She has be-
come the world's best loved singer,
not alone because of her wonderful
voice and her perfect execution, but
because of her distinct humanity. She
is a great singer, but more than that
she is Schumann-Heink. Were she a
school teacher, a nurse, or a farmer's
wife, she would still be great; she
would still be Schumann-Heink.
The advance sale of reserved seats
has been large, but there are still
some good places that can be had.
The box office in University hall will
be open on Tuesday evening at 7:00

EN(IN'EERI CPROF. U VENTS
AN) ELECTRIC SELF-STARTER
Prof. B. F. Bailey of the engineering
department, has invented and placd
on the market an electric self-starter
for automobiles. The outfit, which
includes the starter, ignition sys-
tem and an electric lighting sys-
tem, is extremely simple and weighs
but 46 pounds in all. Its e'ficiency has
been well proven by amiple rcad tests
and the Bailey Electri(al Co., of Grand
Miss Ben Oliel has decided to call
her Holy Land Exhibit The Land of,
the Cross. It is the greatest exhibit of
its kind on this continent. There is
but one that approaches it in grandeur
and that is the London exhibit which
is mercenary rather than educational'
and uplifting ingharacter.

Scenes from the Holy Land
Never was there a greater or more realistic transformation
than that which has taken place in Massey Hall for Miss Ben-
Oliel's wonderful production of the Holy Land.
The whole performance is such as one would not be likely
to see more than once in a lifetime, and which for truthfulness,
elaboration of detail and information given in a most delightful
way could not be surpassed.
The Evening Telegram
The exhibition is appropriately styled "a wonderful, su-
perb life size Bible dictionery." There are hundreds of ex-
hibits illustrating the Bible stories.
Miss Ben ,,Oliel has given her dramatic
Lecture-Entertainments on ten programs of
87 Chautauquas and for many State conven-
tions and Synods and Preachers Conferences.
She gave a course of lectures at the Northfield
College Women's Conference, and after 7 num-
bers on a State Y. W. C. A. program, was
booked by 13 colleges in that state.
