Another Big 8how at the Auditorium. “One good show follows another” is the motto of the manugement of the Auditorium, and in keeping with this, a programmse has been booked for next week thet looks like the best yet. The head-liner for the first half of the week is a comedy act that is a veritable scream. The Four Masons is the act mmth;l:ce‘d“, and they present an original musk comedy entitled A Day in & Country School The title of this sketch alone seuggests unlim- ited possibilities for comedy, and the Four Masons you may be sure have taken advantage of them all. Acts de- pending upom perfect physical deve-l opment and musuclar dexterity are al- ways sure to make good, and Mlle Paula, & Furopean novelty gymnast, has reached the acme of perfection and the height of gracefulness. Har- rington and Millar, another comedy noct, will keep the audience in the best of spirits, as Mr. Harrington is one of the funnlest and most natural Irish comedians on the vaudeville stage to- day. They present their roaring com- edy sketch entitled Wanted, a Man Cook. The tourth act is a clever in- strumental number offered by De Al- ma and May, the classy banjolsts, a straight musical turn that ranks with the best in their line. A very fine lot of Photoplays are on hand todey, headed by the feature pic- ture, John Halifax, Gentleman, dramatization of the world famous | novel of that mame.

Next week the stock company will appear in a drams: tion of Augusta J. Evans’ popu movel, Bt. Elmo, popular not only day, but for the past decade. It tells a tense and powerful story of the south in a dramatic and compelling manner, and no one who has read the book will want to miss the play Mr. ad- Le Sueur will appear in the title role of St. Elmo, a character he is well fitted to assume, and Miss Perry will be the Edna Earle of the p the girl who regenerates and reforms the scapegrace heir to a large estate. With the popularity the company has al- ready achieved to back them up, their appearance in this best work of a favorite writer should be more than an ordinary succes: In fact, the sal for the week gives every indication of & record-breaking run. Monday, New Year's afternoon, the seats will be reserved, the same as at regular night performances, while at the other daily matinees the usual low prices will prevail.
