The Ma- jestic has for Its headllner tola week frank Lalor, In a musical comedietta, "Back to berth." It can gafely be said to be the best sketch that Mr. Lalor has ever presented In Chicago. Gertrude Holmes and Robert Bu- chanan opened, singing old and new songs, doing nicely. Frits Bruch and slater, 'cello and violin experts, did splendid In second position. "Fixing the Furnace," a farce by George Holland and company, one of the best laughing sketches seen here in some time. Muriel and Frances, two clever girls, sang songs in a way that made them take many encores. "Mandaiayj* was the big song hit for the girls. "Celluloid Sara," a moving picture drima, was a big surprise to the Ma- jestic audience. The cast is well balanced. Bellow, the mentaphone artist, opened Inter- mission with a novelty.

Melnotte Twins are two pretty and attractive young women, who slog and dance fairly well. After their last song they close with a dance, which made a big bit. Gordon Brothers and kangaroo are clever. They do bag punching and present a sparring match with their kangaroo that furnishes a lot of fun. GREAT NORTHERN HJTP0DR0HE.

SPARKS' SHOW ROTES. BI fLSTCUBB SMITH, At the twenty-flrst birthday party of the Professional Woman's League. Maltla Crai- gin, president, given at the League rooms, 1999 Broadway, on Feb. 28, 1914, the draw- ing for the winner of the Weser Brothers' Pianola took place. This was a 1000 Instru- ment, and was won by Harry F. Weber, of Mt Vernon, and who is of the well known firm of vaudeville agents, Weber A Evans. The winning number was B-62, sold In De- cember, 1911, by Rosalie Mnckentuss, who is one of the prominent members of the League, besides being the manager of the family de- partment of the United Booking Offices. LHile B. Becbslle, the treasurer of the League, presented the League with four dozen solid sliver teaspoons and one dosca solid silver forks, upon Its "coming of ago" party. Mrs. ASbertlne Pen-in baked and present* ed the birthday cake upon this occasion. Mrs. Sol Smith, the oldeat living actress, elafrty-six jears of age on March 10, is quite 111 with neurltla of the head. A large basket of -choice fruits was sent Mrs, Snath by the League members, expressing their sympathy. There were so many requests at the Frl- iday evening dancing class held at the League, for another class, chat Tuesday afternooa of each week has been decided upon to meet these demands. Already more applications hare been made than was hoped for. It la quite possible that the League rooms will be utilized for a similar purpose If tbe demand continues. A very nn 0 Vlctrola hae been purchased to add to the other music for dan- cing, and Bosetta Hawthorne Hayes, tbe dancing instructress, Is to be congratulated upon her wonderful success. The Literary Day, on March 2, has been postponed to April 6, when Mrs. Llbby Cul- bcrtson Maedonald will be the chairman. Tbe terrlfflc storm of tje former date Is the good and sufficient reason for the postponement.
