Today will be the last chance to see the great vaudeville show at the Broadway, for starting tomorrow a new show headed by the famous Scotch aet, “The Lass o' Loch Lomond,” will start the last half of the week. This act carries scenery which is an exact reproductfon of the famous hills of Scotland and the three people are all excellent singers of the Scotch songs. Hammond and Forrester are billed as real vaudevillians and have a singing end talking act out of the ordinary. The Clemenzo Bros. are a team of FBuropean novelty acrobatic musicians who are said to do an act that will surprise as well as please you. Felton es the silly athlete is a clever bag puncher. The feature film will be “The Night Riders of Kentucky.” THE AUDITORIUM. The introducing of Keith & Proctor vaudeville in the Auditorium this week has proven a good step by the manage- ment, as was shown by the capacity houses attending at both performances on Monday eveéning. The special fea- ture act presented by Mlle. Sabine, Vera and Burke, three finished per- formers and artists in their own line, keep the audience in roars of laughter at the many amusing sltuations which oocur in rapid succession during this entire playlet. Kimble and Lewis, the varsatile comedy couple, are rightly billed. The songs which they introduce with pleasing voice are mnew and catchy.. The acrobatic work done by afr. Kimble is clever and neat. Guy I.ester, the famous expert roller skater, showed some novel and intricate steps in this line and won much applaus: His Mendelssohn Rag, the latest musi- cal sensation, adapted from Mendebl ssohn’s Spring Song, was a most pleas- ing feature of this act. The clever singing, talking and eccentric dancing turn introduced by Marion and Dean =hows them to be in a class by them- ::lv- and performers of no mean abil- Y. Beginning next week, Jan. 10th, the management will put in an entirely new show on Thursdays. BREED THEATER. Daughters of Poverty, Sensational Fea- +ture Picture. Notwithstanding the extreme cold of last evening the Breed theater held a large crowd and the interested audi- ence was most demonstrative and ap- lauded at every opportunity, sizn rg their appreciation of the hustling management of Manager McNulty 1 securing such a splendid programme This programme for variety of sub- jects and interesting plots has scarcely been ecualled this season, the big Japanese feature alone being a photo- graphic gem. The Daughters of Poverty is thrill- ing to the core and the great scene of the automobile accident is so lifelike that it causes many of the spectators to utter a startled cry, but the follow- ing scenes amply repay for any undue excitement caused, and the picture is accepted for just what it represents leaving its strong moral uppermost in the minds of the patrons. Of course the quaintly beautiful pic- ture of fair Japan, entitled The Geisha ‘Who Saved Japan, is a finished hit of motion picture photography. the whole picture seeming to overflow with the superb acting, gorgzeous Japanese land— scapes and exciting situations. Miss Wolcott continues to delight her hearers with her scholarly rendition of the very poetic song by Bischoff en- titled Jamie, Dear, follow g later with | the pretty iNustrated song Could Yeu | Love a Little Girl Li Me?
