In doing so he drew open the drawer, which contained some silver and new pennies. As his re- membrance of the mendicant resembles that given of the robber by the watch- man, it is thought that he and the thief are one person. | Orpheum. | The three dancing Dewsons open the show at the Orpheum this week and act as a leader to as good a show as has, been seen here in some time. The Dawsons are holdovers and their act is every bit as good this week as it was last. The Sil- vers, {llustrated song vocalists, present a very pretty turn. The pictures shown dur- ing the progress of the various songs are | very pretty and well executed. The turn given by the six Blackbirds this week dif- fers from that of last, in that the Black: birds do a little more dancing than sing- ing. Les Troubadores Toulousians sing new songs in a pleasing manner. Fanny Rice presents an entertainment that is really ‘‘varied.” She first gives a recita- tion, in which the Roman Coliseum, a From that | a long jump, but Fanny makes the leap gracefully. She is assisted by Allce Beach McComas, a brilliant pianist. Kath- | leen Parlow is a wonderfully good child violinist, and Cinquevalli is still to the fore with his marvelous juggling. He performs a number of new tricks. With the aid of his assistant, who is a faclai | contortionist of no mean ability, he keeps the audience alternating between hearty | laughter and gasps of wonder. The sing- ing and dancing of Hendrix and Prescott are very good, they, with the biograph, winding up a good show. | Alcazar, The farce comedy “On and Off,” by Alexander Bisson, was presented at the | Alcazar Theater last night and afforded the evenly balanced stock company an- other opportunity of showing that in that class of production it cannot ' be sur- passed. The piece is full of comical situ- ations, the dialogue is bright and spark- ling and the laughter last night was in- cessant. The main characters are a justly suspicious mother-in-law and a giddy son-in-law. There are many complic tions. M. L. Alsop was particularly ef- fective as the son-in-law and Marion Con- vere was fascinating as his wife. George Osbourne, Henry Shumer, Howard Scott, | Walter Belasco, Harry Rattenbury, Li lian Elliott, Margaret Wycherley and Oza | Waldrop had parts that suited them ad- mirably.

LUMP of “Sapho,” large wads of “Camille,” a chunk of ‘“Monte “Cristo,”” generous help from other plays too numerous to title,and some Dam—H. J. W. Dam —were presented last night at the Colum- bia Theater, under the name of porting company. Mr. Dam has gathered in the sheaves from almost as many sources as there are scenes, with a light, airy, unparticular pilfering in most fami- liar flelds. Neither has he been at any trouble to disguise the founts of his in- epirations, but has ticketed them with commendable and unusual honesty. The effect is slightly bewildering. It is a little difficult to know just where one is “at’”’ The first scene opens on a gort of ‘“Manon Lescaut” arrangement, with some of the aristocracy of the demi- monde disporting themselves with ‘a gilded youth or two in the expensive gardens of a Parisian cafe.” Comes here La Madeleine, garbed in a convihcingly virtuous costume as a little work girl that the eminent demi-mondaine has become through love of a delightfully impossible poor but honest Marquis, from whom she bas concealed her identity. She comes to borrow money from one of her former associates, and there “Sapho’” comes on the scene, An enam- ored but bald Baron, hero of an gpisode in La Madecleine’s unconverted #eriod, surprises the sacrificlally-garbed lady at the absinthe—‘with a little ginger, please, Joseph!”—that she has ordered from the waiter on the strength of former cus- toms. He proclaims himself stlll the penitent’s glave, and though still on vir- tuc bent, she somehow finds herself pos- ing on a chalr as the center of a toast to “La Madeleine!” Here the hero, of course, wanders in, and learns that ilie sweet Marie is the notorious “La Made- leine.” Then there’'s trouble, and now cemes an extract from ‘““Monfe Cristo,” a Johnny-on-the-spot sort of figure in the uhnpe of a mysterious priest. The priest is “reelly” the father of the hero, a Marquis who murdered a man and got jailed for it, but got a friend to say that he had dled in prison of smallpox. He, however, gets out to act as a sort of guardian angel to his son, which he does in a “Dam’ sort of way by per- suading La Madeleine to sell herself for gold—half a million of it—to the Baron, in order to redeem the ancestral domain of the Marquis, his son. The third act is lifted bodily from ““Camille,” gilded salon, reckless throw- ing around of lightweight dollars, half- million dollar checks and the like, though the inverted morality of “Camille’ seems to have turned a double somersault in “La Madeleine.” The gullty papa takes a hand here also, and the brother of the man he killed—Prince Rielof—recognizes him. But the Prince does quite the usual thing on such occasions, gives the gled hand to his brother’s murderer and a half- million dollar check to La Madeleine—to free her from the Baron. ILa Madeleine says, ‘‘Bless you, my long-lost parent.” he last act takes place in a church, cn the hero's wedding morn. As a nice little wedding gn “La Madeleine,'" after imploring the hero to believe in her, commits sulcide to the tune of Crevin's Blanche Walsh does all that could be done for the heroine. BShe wears a gown in the first act that makes it impossible to doubt the sincerity of Marie's repent- “La | | Madeleine,” by Blanche Walsh and a sup- ance. She has = first go at guicide in the “La Boheme''-cum-"‘Camille’” second zct that almost convinces. In the third act she was heartily applauded, and de- served it, for her scene denouncing the Baron and his kind, and altogether did her best to make the thing credible. Miss Walsh is falrly well supported, with the notable exception of the lead- ing man, who is about as convincing as the play. Emmett Shackelford was clever as the Baron, and others good were Forrest Flood, Mason Mitchell, Frederick.Harris, Rose Braham and Mrs. J. R. Haywood. Central. “There’s nothing to it,”” said the scene shifter at the Central Theater last night. “I thought Chimmy Britt had Terry Mc- Govern lashed to der mast as an actor, but on der square I tink he can knock even Henry Ofving out when it comes ter playing to der gallery.” “Oh, my Chimmy is a boid,” said pretty Georgie Cooper, the tough girl in “The Bowery After Dark,” and the echo came back that Jimmy Britt was the whole aviary. As a star he scintillated until the footlights on the stage flickered and went out, and then the audience imagined that Jimmy Britt was an aurora borealis. In the language of the Sixth-street “bunch” Jimmy ‘‘made good.” He went through four acts and scored a knock-out in every scene. As an actor he cannot be equaled by McGovern. His trainer, George Webster, now thinks he can soar to greater helghts and is thinking of coach- ing Britt to try a few Shakespearean roles. The audience that filled the Central Theater was composed of friends of the actor-pugilist. They applauded his every movement, and when he was off the stage they devoted their time to hissing the \‘rfi- lains. There were .a palr of them, but the Bowery boy made them ‘‘seek the tall timber.” Britt was cool and confident. In the first act he slde-stepped on to the stage and then the gallery broke loos Britt nearly dislocated his spine respond- ing to the plaudits that greeted him. He le! with both hands and caught the au- dience in the solar plexus. e was the whole show and the 1 of pink lemon- ade. After frustrating the villains in their attempts to commit more crimes than are coming to any two men, Britt took the fuce of a kidna; boxer and scored a few more hits. e landed some severe jolts on Charley Reno and re- ge(vzd a love tap in the ear that drew lood. The climax of this remarkable play is in the fourth act. “Billy” Jordan was t{e an- nouncer, and in the usual manner yelle “Gentlemen, please stop smoking.” then Introduced the referee, Harry Co bett; George Harding, the well-known timekeeper; “Spider” Kelly and Tim Mc- Grath, who seconded Britt in his profes- sional contests. The scene was very real- istic. “Kid" Lavigne challenged the win- ner and was wildly greeted. The arena was crowded with gallery boys, reporters and well-known men about town. cheering _was den‘genlnq. The small boy advised Britt to “hit ’im in der slats'’; “goak 'im In der bread-basket,” and to give Reno an ‘‘apricot. Britt followed out the instructions and Reno suffered ac- enrdlnqx. Jimmy even forgot that Reno had held his dlamond stud up to a hot incandescent light to make it sparkle. rgle Cooper proved a good com- yl.nion or Jimmy. e wore a fl'fht ‘Joisey” and chewed gum incessantly, = + Annette Marshall suffered from the vil- lain's wiles and was pitled; Mrs. Margaret Marshall was very funny s a German woman, and Agnes Rankin looked sweet as a Celestial maiden. The villains were 80 busy ducking Britt's leads that they nearly forgot their lines. Ernest Howeil as Issy Cohen scored a hit. The rest of the cast supported the lightweight cham- plon in clever style. Jimmy was the re- cllplenl of a number of handsome floral pleces, Tivoli. “The Serenade,” now in its fourth week at the Tivoli, still holds its audiences spellbound.

Manager | Leahy has just returned from Italy, and he was kept busy shaking hands with old friends.

Hartman he sald, “Well, Teddy, they all sent love to you. | " “Thank you, Mr. Leahy; thank sir,” said the inimitable Teddy. “I hav a warm feeling for the East. Do you re- member when I was touring with that play ‘The Purser'—you remember my tour, don’t you? Well, the Eastern peo- ple freated me fine, but I always had to treat. first.” As the Duke of Santa Cruz Hartman is in his element. He enters with zest into the part, as he does any part where his comic art has full play. The local hits he uts into his songs when surrounded by he St. Benedict monks or the Spanish brigands throw the audience into convul- sions of laughter. Anna Lichter's voice continues to ring out masterfully. Dolores, the ward of the Duke; Edward Webb as the broken- down tenor and Harry Cashman as the tailor are deservedly popular. “The Serenade.” which was thought to have been exploited to a finish by the Bostonians, bids fair to run indefinitely, | 1 | | greclmes this fact, but unless vou h;\\'e! ‘When he came to Ferris | you, | for so far each week has surpassed the preceding one in its demand for seats. Grmdmouu. A crowded house greeted the reappear- ance of Melbourne MacDowell ‘and Flor- ence Stone in Sardou’s “Cleopatra” at the Grand Opera-house last night. The stars scored a pronounced hit. At the close of both the fourth and fifth acts they were forced to reappear before the audience time and time again. The play Is elab- orately staged and the costumes are ex- cellent. The storm scene at the temple of Isis almost drew the audience to its feet. Florence Stone as Cleopatra gives a fine performance. MacDowell has a_wonderful conception of the character of Antony. Herschel Mayall as Krephren was _also most favorably received. The rest of the cast furnishes excellent support for the leaders. To judge from its reception last night the play should have ome of the | most successful runs of the season. California. Howard Kyle and Florence Smyth moved an appreciative and sympathetie audience to tears in the parting scene of the fourth act of “Nathan Hale” last night. But they had the sympathy of the audience from the very beginning of Clyde Fitch's touching love story. ile it is a recognized article of war that sples must suffer an ignominious end, one cannot help feeling indignation when Na-~ than Hale is exposed through a garrulous negro servant and is sentenced to dle the death. But it is hard to reconcile Moore's song, ‘‘Belleve Me If All Those Endear~ ing Young Charms,” written in the nine- teenth century, with the scenery of the elghteenth. . - e———— George Mayerle, German Expert Opticiaa.
