Heading the veudeville is Waterall and Win- field, two ciever perforniers, whe pre- sent a novelty comedy singing sketch called “Semething New.” Beth the lady and gendeman in this aet have exceptionally fine singing voices and their sleteh is sure to prove a big hit Next cemes Mason and Lee, tweo strong men. who have & novelty ath- letie and poSing aet that is away ahead of anything in thac fine ever seen here, Willlams and Wagyne are two Yyoung men whe do a neat classy singing and damcing turn, iniroducing many new steps that will sarprise you. Saronski lends variety to the bill as a woaderful violin artist. The wa this feliow plays is a treat by jiself. His selec- tions are mostly ragtime, but he intro- duees emough of the classic numbers to prove that he is an artist of merit. The #fth act on this bill is Paul Ryan, a clever singing and talking comedian. His specially is away from the usual TER monologue acts. Te has a of his own that is a plk ure to lis to. In tire whole five acts there are no two alike, The feature photoplay to- day is a two-reel K. B. drama of mili- taty life called Tho Trap, a maxmifi- cent war picture produced by Thomas H. Ince, the samwe man that prodnced The Battle of Gettysburg, the greatest war picture ever filmed.

Manuel Romaine, Famous Singer, Other Acts and Photoplays. For the last three days of this week the Auditoriam management has se- lected three acts that are of the high- est quality, and the photoplays are correspondingly good. The first nwmber on the programme today will be A Filash in the Dark, a Nestor drama, anrd this will be follow- ed by By Radium’s Rays, a twe-reel drama of the Gold Seal brand, featur- ing Herbert Rawlinson and Edna Mason. Maxine Bates, the first ac a Con- necticut gird who is rapidly forging her way to the front ranks in vaude- ville, and her musical specialty of voice, violln and piauo is both refined and entertaining. The Hasiell Twins their dainty singing and cialty which is right up ute. ‘he headiine attraci as is seldom seen in theatre, and this in their scenic sinzing novelty Cockney and the Cop. Manuel maine is known to millions of peopk the world over, and by reputation onl as his voice has been heard wherever phonographs are known. This will be a good chance for the 1 of good singing to hear ome o© he greatest tenors of the day, and at a price with- in reach of all.

The photo- plays will be changed again tomor- row. COLON{AL THEATRE. The Grip of Circumstances, Superb Two-Reel Raffles Story. Here is the all-absorbinz story of | Jay Malden, a polished society man, who proves to be of the type known as Raffles. It foliows him through a se- operations and at last to scovery and arrest. It is one of those intense stories that makes a master- ful photoplay and every inch of full of interest and e: ment. The Master of the Mines is an extremely nove! dram: so in reels, telling of a girl who for position and money makes a Joveless | marriage. During a fearful mine ex- plosion her husband faces death (o Tescue others, and wins her love and respect. She follows him into the blazing mine and saves him. Truly a daring act of devotion. Stili another two-reel feature is the Edison produc tion entitled An American King, this with popular Ben Wilson in the lead, ielling of the uneasiness of head that wears a crown. This is a pow erfol story and the leads are sur- rounded by a strong support, all of ‘whom" are popular film favorites. A big Biograph comedy film ¢ pletes the programme.

Just beeause veur hair is full of dandruff, thin, streaky, dull, and never wilf do up to loek pretty, do net think it must be so. Beautiful hair, thiek, fiudy, lustrous and abselutely free from dandruff is only a matter of a little care. Hair is like a plant—it needs attention. A little Parisian Sage, one of the most helpfal and invigorating tonic frequently applied and well rubb: inte the scalp, will weork wenders. Just one application stons itching head, removes dandruff, cleanxes the hair and sealp of all dust and excessive oil. 1t swes right to the hair rvois stimwlating them and furnishing the nourishment that ie needed—the hair becomes soft, fluffy, abundant and radiant with life. Parisian Sage not only saves the hair and stimulates it to grow long and heavy but gives it that incompar- abde gloss and heauty so much desired by both giris and women of zIl ages. Get a bettle from Lee & Osgood Co. at once. Use it as directed and if you are not both surprised and delighted with reswits they will return your money.

Mr. Miller urged the adoption by the conference of a resolution pledging cooperation of miners and emplovers in an effort to put an end to the al- laged lawlessness and to punish the perpetrators.” ADVICE ABOUT HOW TO REMOVE UNSIGHTLY HAIR WANTED FUEL ASSOCIATED PRESS DESPATCHES FOR SALE ADVERTISEMENTS under the keading of “WANTED, FOR.SALE or TO RENT” ARE INSERTED AT THE RATE OF S5c per Line, Six Words to the Line TO RENT 4 BD—Jadies; fascinating home tinting postcards, ploture ete., spare time; make $12 weekly; no S ing; samples 10 articu Artint 731, 130 Manhattan York apr WANT young man about years old, of good habits, good penman, and good at ngures, can obtain a good Do permanent no lost time, but with & chance for advancement, in own handwriting to George M.
