VAUDEVILLE BILL AT CAPITOL. For real good entertainment .one must see the bill at the Capltol now playing tonight and Wednesday as this popular theater has one of the best seen in this city. To begin with | the feature attraction, and the cause of very favorable comment on e part of the 1 e audience yesterday, is Bernicia in he Court of Old King Cole,” with Jim Tembrook, Ethel Bix- | by, Danny Dove and Fred Frey's Bernician Orchestra. Bernicia, is a very clever girl and shows some very fine dancing, in fact a atyle that is not seen very often on the vaude- | ville stage. Kred Frey’'s Bernician or- chestra is the last word in jazz bands and the audiences couldn't get enough. As an added attraction, spe- cial- mention must be given the Vol unteers, one of the finest ginging hov- elties in vaudeville. Hodge and T.owell were also big favorites yesterday with their excellent comedy act which is a continual laugh from start to finish. Jim and Gladys Gilfoyle and Iorest and West offer excellent acts, going over to big aplause at both shows vesterday. The photoplay feature presents Arthur Carewe's presenta- | tion of “Mighty Lak' A Rose." Several of the members of the all- star cast of the.Edwin Carewe pro- duction for First National, "“Mighty Lak’ a Rose,” which is now playing at the Capitol theater, are noted for their work in recent stage plays.
