Nisbat, who has risen rapidly in tho pa st few years as a novelist, magazine and newspaper writer, lias again shown h is ability In writing tho libretto of the musical comedy, ' ‘Girl Hangers,” now being played a t the Auditorium theatre'in Chicago, the largest play house in the world. The stage has an acre of floor space. The play is regarded . as a great success and Mr, Nisbefc has received theinogt favorable comment from . the- Chicago press. I t Is, predicted th a t the play will a t least have a six • month run in that? city. The Chicago Record-Herald has the following to say: The new venture a t the Audito­ rium was revealed last n igh t and proved to be a big, handsome . ani­ mated show, full of jovial episode, pungent, linos and sweet, lively , tones, 16 possesses half a dozen d istinct features,' among them a chorus mounted on horse back, t a race between an automobile aim '.a railway train, an exhibition by a - ' lasso throwor, who accompanies his astonishing feats with some ex tremely'droll talk—he being a veri­ table comedi/m from the wild and woolly— a dancing iiorse with a better ear for music and more sense of the poetry of motion than some ' humans w ho undertake tl»e practice of the torpsichorhan art, and sever­ al novel and pretty electrical effects. These are special numbers th a t are pleasingly worked into an enter­ tainment that also has such sub­ stan tial elements as a good story, crisp dialogue and exceptionally da in ty music to lift j t above the vacuity and incoherence character istio of most musical shows. “ The Girl Hangers” is full of-the atmosphere of all outdoors, and its tone is wholesome. The costumes are the picturesque garb of the .w estern ' plains, and they perm it ■ th e arrangement of harmonious and brillian t tableaux W ithout* th e obtrusion of flashy effects which in the usual mUBical show,, produce, merely a rio ted color.and spangles.

The scene is the dooryard of a ranchhouse on the care-free plains of Wyoming. A band of cowboys who can ride and sing and hurljfche lasso come Serenading the populous household ot Pete Passmore, owner ot Cherry. Blossom ranch and the father of eight—all girls. “ Pretty Lady/ is the burden of the trouba* bora’ rdfrain and In tlm t song Mr. Weld has written a melody delight­ fu lly in the sp irit of Mr. Nisbet’s caressing word#. Thonce-forward plot and rough hewn characterisa­ tion develop rapidly. Home months ago Mr. Nisbefc came across a news­ paper dispatch which related how a man had foreclosed on the town hall ot a municipality in Maine th a t had defaulted on Its bonds. Ho whipped th a t characteristically Yankee epi­ sode info a short story th a t he eallad “When Blngley Owned the Towu.” The narrative in “ The Girl Kling­ ers" is a still further working up of tho idea, and lb ills well into a pro­ gramme of frolic and travesty. The plot is never lost and i t commands in te rest,bu t ltls sufficiently flexible, to adm it of Brad Bmgtey and his cowboy cohorts having many ex­ perience both musical amt jocu lar With the energetic eight of Pete Kossmore, to aay nothing of a dozen less dashing damsels who are tour­ ing the West and trying to adjust their adventures there to Boston standards, Mr. Bingley assumes drastic control of Plains City, de­ claring to tho inhabitants th a t their town is bankrup t amt Hint lie is to act as receives1.
