Special preparations are underway for the construction of an ice skating rink on Fox's stage for Alfred Naes and company. This is the biggest ice skating act in vaudeville and was at the Hippodrome ali last season. The company carries with it special chem- ical equipment for freezing a minia- ture pond right on the stage and all of the exhibition skating is done on real ice, frozen for each performance.

Mary Pickford is now appearing at | the I’alace in her new production “Heart of the Hills.” This new one is by far the best of her recent pro- “ductions and she is well liked in the character of a mountain girl. Miss Pickford takes the role of Mavis who has been responsible for gathering the night-riders for the purpose of ridding the mountains of one, Sanders, who Mavis believes has cheated herself and mother out of valuable coal lands. When Sanders scoffs at the night-riders and refuses to take them seriously, shots are ex- changed and he is killed. Seeking to injure Mavis, Steve Honeycutt, who had been in league with Sanders, informs the sheriff that Mavis is responsible for the shot that killed S8anders. Mavis flees to a retreat in the mountains but yields to the request of a kindly school teacher to return to the lowlands for trial. The Keith vaudeville bill for the first part of the week includes four excellent acts with “The Rose Re- vue,” a classy song and dance offer- ing; Jessie Morris, a very clever singing and talking comedienne; Un garo Romany, classed as the best vio- { linist in vaudeville; and Aldine and Wright in a pleasing novelty. 69TH REGIMENT BAND. “Only when the United States can boast of National House supported by feel that the American people are taking their music seriously,” recent- ly declared Col.
