AT DAVIS BROADWAY. Vaudeville and Motion Pictures. At the Davis Broadway theater on Monday there was a matinee for the vaudeville and moving pictures, but no performance for this part of tl theater's bill in the evening, as tha time’ was taken up by Henrietta Cros- man in The Real Thing. In the vaudeville bill the Black Byrds make a singing act that is one of the good things that the Davis has offered this season, and they are or- iginal fun makers. For a comedy singing and talking team, Miller and Tempest put in a reat and well ar- ranged act that never fails to win the approval of the house, while in the solo dancing line, Alvora shows nov- elty numbers that are full of grace and charm. The photoplays and mo- tion pictures are of the kind that keep up the standard of the house. oy The Real Thing. ctically sold out for the presenta- tion of The Real Thing, the Davis Broadway theater on Monday evening had a house that gave Henrietta Cros- man a cordial greeting, demanding one curtain call after another at the end of cvery act tlil the star had sat- isfied them by her obliging reappear- ance to bow acknowledgment of the tribute to her irresistible fitness for the role she portrayed. To single out one or another from a troupe so ad- mirably balanced would be an injus- tice to Miss Crossman’s support. Suf- fice to say that nome, probably in the big house, would have chosen to make a change in any role, so that the per- formance was one that found a house unanimous in its pleasure that they had heard and seen Miss Crossman| and the cast presented by M: Campbell sy WEDDING. 1de M M. wi tivitles of the club.

In fear that the announcement of the attempted assassination might be made from the stage and be an unnecessari- ly great shock to the colonel's wife, George W. Perkius, chairman of the executive committee of the national progressive party, who was among the first to receive the news, had des- patched a messenger to Mrs. Roose- velt. Relieved by Early Bulletins. Although assurances were given ia the first despatches that the colonei had mot_been seriously wounded, Mrs. Roosevelt was alarmed and immediate- Iy left the theater, driving to the head- quarters of the national progressivé committee in the Hotel Manhattan Here she waited anxiously further de- tafls from Milwaukee. She was con- siderably reliéved by the early bulle- tins reporting that the colonel had been so slightly wounded that he was able to proceed with his scheduled speech for the evening. She was alarmed again, however, when the wires told of the removal of the colonel to a hospital and doubt atmong his physicians as to the serious- ness of the wound.
