New Dillingham Show With Fred Stone Ac-
corded Wonderful Reception on Broadway—
Ivan Caryll's Delightful Music a Feature
Seldom has a new production on Broadway
been accorded such an enthusiastic reception
as was granted to Chas. Dillingham's new mu-
sical comedy, "Jack o' Lantern," with Fred
Stone in the leading role, and which was pre-
sented at the Globe Theatre for the first time
on Tuesday night.
The book and lyrics of the new piece are by
Anne Caldwell and R. H. Burnside, and the
music is by Ivan Caryll, who has already been
responsible for the music of many successes.
The show is an up-to-the-minute comedy, clean
and wholesome, and is staged and costumed
throughout in excellent taste.
Mr. Stone, of course, depends upon his nimble
legs to produce most of his comedy. He dances
all kinds of dances with about everybody in the
company and then for variety dances by him-
self, but through it all he displays a brand of
humor that won his place on Broadway years
ago. He also shows some lively skating steps
in the Ice Carnival that is a feature of the show. :

Mr. Stevenson, who made "Good-bye
Girls, I'm Through" popular, has a good song
in "Along Came A'riother Little Girl." Miss
