The transfer of the work of CharlesDickens to Ihe stage, has been oftenuieu on ooxn sides ot tne Atlantic, and." a ruie, me resu-- t nas been disappointing. There is such a wealth ofdetail to all the stories of the greatestof English novelists, that even the bestpiaywngnts have found it difficult tocompress into reasonable length thebest features of the various storieswhich run through each of his greatnovels, uowever, Mr. Ternss Has beenhappy in his adaptations, and has madeit possible to present two completeproductions in one evening.

The National Theater will have as Itsattraction next week a new comedy,"The Dummy." by Harvey J. O'Higginsand Harriet Ford, who won conspicuoustheatrical distinction recentlv by theirdetective play. "The Argyle Case."Their latest effort also deals with de-tectives and "shady" people, but with adistinctively comedy treatment, end ex-citing situations and thrills are blendedwith humor. The play is in four arts,and fhtf lUvnM rfl lnlH In Vddt Vrtrb--

and In the Catsklll mountains. A note-- 1worthy company has been engaged forithe production. It includes, amongUU.CIC, AUd DttJCr, J3.KMVU AlKCUCUl,Joyce Fair, a talented child actress;Joseph Brennen, as the detective; Ed-ward Ellis, Ernest Truex, as the "boy;"Joseph Tuohy, Frank Connor, John X."Whreler. Nicholas Judels, Arthur E.Hohl, and other well-kno- actors.

"Stop Thief," a farce In threo acts,written by Carlyle Moore, will be re-lived next week by the Poli Players.The storv of the comedy deals withkleptomania. There are two klepto-maniacs and a real crook in "StopThlof." One of the kleptomaniacs Is amillionaire, and th other is his pros-ject."- ke

As a result of a series of baffling rcys-te-i- es

that occur in de first act. a bat-talion of policemen appear in the secondj-t- . in which thrill follows thrill intuick succession. The remarkable dis-appearance of various valuably articlesand the frantic search for the culpritsprovide the numerous irresistibly funnyincidents of the story.
