In “Mister Antonio” Otis Skinner and the” author, Booth Tarkington, have Jjoined together to produce a veritable gem, a sketch in which the touch Is Hght and deft, and sure and strong. It is the story of the good Samaritan. modernized, with a sequel, a sequel that iluminates and brings home the characteristic lack of understanding and Ingratitude found too often among so-called virtuous human be- ng: ‘Mister Antonio” is no stranger to the National Capital. But the large audience which greeted his return at the Shubert-Garrick Theater _last night, the laughter, the moisture of eye, vigorous applause which he evok- ed ‘during the four acts of the de- lightful comedy were proof of the welcome back. In_the revival of “Mister Antoni Mr. Skinner. and the producer, Charles Frohman, apparently have made no mistake in judgins the real taste of the theater-going public. True, there are thase who might have preferred a revival of the more stupendous “Kismet” by Mr. Skinner, but as Mis ter Antonlo,” the organ grinder, son of Sunny Italy, with a something in- side of him which keeps him awake at night if he falls to extend a help- ing hand, he wins his way nightly into the affections of the public. Mr. Skinner is supported by a fine company, which includes Marion War- ring Manly, Joseph Brennan, John Irene Purcell, Robert Harri- son, Ernest Alton, Mary Mallon and others admirable in the roles allotted them, including a diminutive donkey, “Himself.” who constitutes, with An tonio and Joe, the three modern trou- badours of the road. The story opens in a “safe” on 3d avenue, New York, wnere “hootch” can be had, a “cafe” that in the old anti-prolribition days, would hav. been known merely as “Tug's saloon. A “certain man” visiting in New York “fell among thieves, who stripped him iment” and left him destitute afe. the. man was about to be “thrown out on his ear” Mister An- tonio arrives, and It is Mr. Antonio who succors aim. Months later the sequel is played out in Avalonia, the home town of the stranger who had mong thieves. For to Ava- ntonio and poor. half- another who had been alded by this extremely human Sa- maritan, and also “Capitano,” the donkey. Tt would be a pity to reveal what the troubadours did there. But amid tears, laughter and a touch of the melodramatic the story is brought to a happy end. B. F. KEITH'S—Marion Harris. Marfon Harris, “the girl from Dixie,” heads a fine bill at Keith's this week and registers one of the big hits of her career. Miss Harris has a world-wide reputation as a phonograph record singer, and to many in the audience it was like listening to an old friend. She has an almost new repertoire of songs of the southern type, that require a girl from Dixle to give them the proper Interpretation. After at least a_dozen recalls Miss Harris begged off and the lights lowered. “The Gossipy Sex.” a playlet writ- ten by Lawrence Gratton, shares In the big honors of the bill. It is pre- sented by Robert Emmett Keane and Claire Whitney, assisted by Frank Hersome, and runs for a half hour of bright lines to almost incessant laughter. Mr. Keane has become a big favorite with Keith patrons. His acting is smooth and clever. Miss Whitney pro A movie tiful and act little. but Miss Whit- ney proved a finished actress and contributed in a marked degree to a genuine success. Another production. “The China Blue Plate,” a musical playlet, also ranks high for its beautiful setting and excellent singing and acting by a little company headed by Maude Gray and Charles Compton. Milton Aborn is responsible for the act and vaudeville patrons owe him a vote of thanks for the half-hour enter- tainment it provides. Other good acts embrace the Dorls Humphrey's Dancers. in beautiful classical numbers; Freda and An- thony. clever Italian singers and jcomedians; Kovacs and G former a pianist of ability and the latter a violinist worth while. Th won much applause for their offer- ings. The Lime Trio opens the pe: formance with a unique acrobatic turn, and the Aesop Fables in cal toons, Pathe News pictures and Cur- rent Events complete the program. COSMOS—Vera Burt — Supreme Sextet. Vera Burt, star of jazz and tion, and Saxie Holdsworth, pentine instrumentalist, with the Su- preme Sextet, an aggregation of soft- pedal jazzists and syncopationists, furnish the headline attraction at the Cosmos Thea g special hit is THE WEATHER District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia—Falr tonight and tomorrow; cooler; moderate westerly winds.

The Morak Sisters open the per- formance with novel posing in the ajr, suspended by the teeth from a trapeze, and then transfer their per- formance to the tight wire and the stage, with several novel feats.

GAYETY—"Bubble-Bubble.” This week's bill at the Gayety Theater is truly a variety offering. embracing songs, dances, comedy and travesty galore. William K, Wells, the producer, has evidently figured that something on the bill would find favor even with the most dyspeptic lof his audienoe. and last night's pa- trons seemed 1o accept the show as just what the doctor ordered. Joe Freed is ghe chief comedy pur- veyor. He has plenty of work to do and does it well. His best efforts were centered in three little bur- lesques, one of which was the trou- bles of newly-wads and the bill col- lector. another of love in the stone age and the last a western sketch. evening with their singing. Paul Rocelll, in an accordion specialty, and Van Dyke and Lee, colored dancers, also received a big hand. The scenery of “Bubble-Bubble” contributes in no small measure to the success of the show, and the chorus must needs be seen to be ap- preciated. —_— NEW BUS LINE HEARING.
