Tastefully aad artstically presented and done in elaborate style, the Herbert presenta- tions include many of the composers most popular and tuneful composi- tions. The Herbert memorial pro- gram adds luster to a well diver- sified bill, made memorable by the appearance of Elias Breeskin, violin virtuoso, and former solo artist with the Minneapolis symphony. Participating in the Herbert en- somble are Betty Anderson, lyric Soprano; Thomas McGranahan, tenor, and Charles Gal. panied by the Tivoli Orchestra, con- ducted by Bailey F.

There is not a moment that the interest of the audience seemed to 1ag, or that origi- nality and ingenuity do not combine to give novel touches to a tale of amusing and thrilling incidents. The Dhotography is excellent and the sup. porting cast presents Doris May as the wingsome heroine. _ Moreover, thers is a camel in the picture that is_worth ‘Tod eing. ‘Weems, '".'l another of those delightful orchestras made up of college boys, came to the Rialto yes- terday for a week’'s engagement and scored a real hit. The Rialto has been noted for its having various Jjazz orchestra attractions from time to time, but none has proved more popular than Mr. Weems' organiza- tion. Last night's capacity audience persisted in oplauding for many minutes after the orchestra perform- ance was concluded. The orchestra is composed of eleven instrumentalists who play such popu melodlvn as “Limehouse Blues. rcheta,” a “Waltz Medley,” lnclud(ng favorites in_three-four time from “Kiss Me Anln" down to “What'll I Do?" and s, a novelty being “Pete’s Red Nose.” ‘The news reel completes the bill.

Then it is that Jennie sets forth, guided by a penni- less Russian count, upon an amusing, varied and lucrative matrimoniai career.

The novel combina- | tion of such opposite traits has Its | exp tion at a charity ball in Paris when among those present are an Austrian crook and his daughter, who are there to steal the funds. The girl is a moral sinner for the reason that her life long share in crime is due to filia} love and to ignor- ance of life above the underworld, to which she belongs.

The ball is at its merriest when a lighted cigarette tossed into a tangle. of confetti blazes into a confligration, and the girl, working the safe combi- nation, is trapped in by flame. Rescue comes through a stranger who risks his life to save hers, and disappears without giving his name.

Scenically considered, the story is limited to a Paris of handsome man- sions, with nothing more sinister in the way of environment than_ the pleasant rooms where Kleschna lives with his daughter and a supposed valet. who {s really an accomplice, and whose tender care of a caged bird and of the o 'rl gives pathetic illustration of a good life spoiled in the making.
