FROM "OVER THE WATER."
The new Witmark building on Shaftesbury
avenue, London, will be open about the first
of August. The English quarters of the
Witmarks will become in a very short time
the place where all American professionals
Will meet. It will be a place to have their
mail addressed—in fact, it will become very
similar to what the oak room is in New
York, and that is where one is sure of find-
ing a friend.
Madge Lessing, according to cable reports,
opened successfully at the Alhambra Music
Hall, in London, last Monday night. Her
big "hit" was with "Rosie, Posie," which is
one of the song hits of London.
Another clever American lady is Trixie Fri-
ganza, who has been playing a successful
engagement at the Tivoli. She is singing
"Honey Bee."
Clara Wieland, an old-time London fa-
vorite, is using the Witmark publications.
Her success has been made by "Mamie B."
James Norrie, the celebrated music hall
tenor, is using Johnson and Kelly's 'Tn Our
Home Sweet Home."
Arthur Collins, the manager of the Drury
Lane Theatre, is putting several of the Wit-
mark popular songs into his pantomime and
other productions. M. Witmark & Sons have
certainly arrived in London.
COOL AND ENJOYABLE AT PROCTOR'S.
Despite the extremely warm weather, and
the four roof gardens more or less in its
vicinity, Proctor's Fifth Avenue Theater has
been doing a remarkable good business. The
F. F. Proctor Big Stock Co. is divided into
three sections during the summer, one play-
ing in New York, one in Albany and one in
Montreal.
With these companies, and a
remarkable vaudeville company Mr. Proc-
tor has managed to make his Fifth Avenue
Theater a success during these hot weeks.
"Pink Dominoes" was successfully played
last week, and also "Our Bitterest Foe."
In the olio were Charlotte Dandridge, who
sang "My Blushin' Rosie," "My Charcoal
Charmer," and "Mamie;" Walter Hyde,
the violinist, William Calhoun, etc.
This week the Stock Co. is giving "Lend
Me Your Wife," and Jerome K. Jerome's
"Sunset."
Taken all around, no one will
regret a visit to this theater, which is always
cool and comfortable.
So much attention
and civility is received in Mr. Proctor's
houses that it is quite a joy to live.
mour" met with a big reception. Harry Nor-
man as "The Marquis Imari" was decidedly
good. A word may be said as to the chorus,
which was strong in beauty and voice, and
showed clever training, for which Herbert
Gresham deserves credit.
MISS EDITH KINGSLEY.
Quite one of the best turns at the Mad-
ison Square Roof Garden is that given by
WHERE CCEAN"BREEZES BLOW.
The Manhattan Beach Theater has opened
for the summer season. It has its usually
strong company, and promises to lie as popu-
lar as ever. "The Circus Girl," which set
the ball rolling, played for two successful
weeks. Last Friday "The Geisha" was put
on, and has since been delighting large au-
diences. July 15th "A Runaway Girl" goes
on. July 22nd George W. Lederer's London
Company in "The Casino Girl." This will
be followed by "The Mikado" and "Pina-
fore," and then Jefferson De Angelis and
Company in "A Royal Rogue."
Playing
in "The Geisha" we have our old friends
