He stands our prominently among the cn- | { tertainers and he is the big applaus getter of the week. Billy's style fol- lows closely along lines suggested in Harry Lauder’s sketches and his act- resembles that of the famous Scotchman in many respects. His songs and humorous sayings are bright and cheery and they find favar with the audienc Encores are demand- ed every time Billy sings and he gen- crously responds frequently. Keeney's show this. week is excep- tionally well diversified and there is considerable merit to every number on the program. Large audiences at every performance testify to its pop- ularity and favorable comment by the patrons shaws that the efforts of the management to plcase them are ap- preciated. Kellen and Clark open the bill with a comedy musical act that cannot fail to please. The Three Romans do an interesting ladder balancing specialty; Hibbett and Myers entertain with songs and live patter and The Seven Mischief Makers appear in a school raom act of exceptional merit. Another chapter in the adventures of “Broncho Billy” will be featured on the motion picture program to- night. G. M. Anderson,, the popular actor, will play the leading} role.

Even the pipe-smoking bull-dag, which heralded the mirthful exploits of the | police officer in the public streets of cities throughout the country where | the attraction was staged, well re- membered yet, the smiles that his appearance brought to hundreds of faces being only a faint reflection of the riot of cachinnations which greeted the officer and his associates | Wwherever they appeared. It was up | to George Kleine to reproduce the merry stage scenes in motion-pictures | for the benefit and diversion of the | many millions of subjects in the king- dom of filmdom.

When Williams reached New York, in the early nineties of the last cen- tury, his worldly possessions included a small valise filled with clothing, & forty dolla in a well worn wallet. As soon as Williams arrived in the metropolis, he called upon his cousin the baritone Gwilyn DMliles, who being sorely pressed for funds, borrowed the $40 from Williams. The | | N WILLIAMS. two then agreed that Williams should board out the money at the Miles flat and after five weeks. Willilams found himself walking the streets of New York without money, influence, or the prospect of a position. Before leaving Akron, a lady in that city presented Williams with a mysterious coin sealed in a wad of white tissue paper; she told Willlams never to break the seal until he found himself without a cent. Not possessing a sin- gle copper Williams tore open the magic parcel, and to his dismay, it contained mercly a shiny fifty cent piece, where he had expected at least a gold eagle. Nearly famished, Wil- liams spent fifteen cents for break- fast in a twenty-third street, Evan Williams will appear in Hart- ford with Ferbert Witherspoon, the basso of the Metropolitan Opera house and Louis Seigel, the new violin star, at Foot Guard hall, in the World Famous Artist Series.
