(a P. STOCKHOUSt, KOB.) This "house beautiful" was "ailed up" Saturday night, Dee. 12. A real good show was on, opened by the Three Twins, a trio of girls who show the "love-It" spirit about their dancing and singing all the way. The routine of the turn needs fixing up and new songs put in. They are three eapable girls; who will be other than an opening turn wien they get the thing In shape. Eddie Barto ana Florence Clark are clever dancers, and the idea of their "Marooned" comedy skit la pleasing, but too chuck full of ancient gags. "If I Lived On This Island with You is their only song. A pretty water drop, with a "moon raising" effect part for "sight," makes a neat background tor them to dance gracefully before, even If they are stranded on an tale. Miss Clark's plumpness interferes not with her being fairylike la dancing. With up-to-date talk, Barto's com- edy way would get valne received. They should have been further away from all the dancing they followed. 8. Walter Davidson, and hla aBststl&g or- chestra of eight musicians, was given the "spotlight'' to feature Ms violin ability. A fine orchestra, although the 'ceJHst would do well to go lighter on hla tight arm when singing acts are en. James MacCurdy, assisted by Mrs. Mac- Curdy and Sylvia Star were a great iaugii- log success with "Put On Your Old Grey Bonnet," due to the complications that arise about an Irish politician believing a "high Myers" view, that a man's success in business Is Judged by the way his wife dresses. He, a democratic candidate, is to come Into one hundred thousand dollars if elected this par- ticular evening (Election Night). He had; an old fashioned "grey bonneted" gal from the "ould sod" for a wife, but after "pan- ning" her for sot being up to the times, hla election to office changes bis "views, and he decides to hold on to the "old time wife'' and; go back to Ireland, even in the steerage. ' Lasky'a Six Hoboes were "In" In place «f Stoddard and Bynes on tho program and scored with their comedy, songs and bur- lprnue finish or modern dancing. Panl McCarthy and Marion Garson prc- eented their neat piano and song offering, but most of their melodies in the interior set went "back stage," while their numbers "in one" were half drowned by too much 'cello accompaniment in the orchestra. Wlndceker's Travesty Baud dosed the show, with the leader giving burlesque Im- personations of a half dozen wen known hand lenders. The band Is a good one and the Impersonations arouse fus, oat the play- ing of "Star Spangled Banner 1 ' as a finale to bring the audience to a etanl is poor Judg- ro<f. ing ment.

Holbrook Manager Charles Dillingham, need not worry about the remainder of the season, or, for that matter, the next, for In Mont- gomery and Stone, in "Chln-Chln," at the Globe, and "Watch Your Step," at the New Amsterdam, he has two great musical suc- cesses. -Wateh Your Step" la a success with a capital 8. Not In a long time have we aucn a more speedy and entertaining show. It Is a flood of merriment, melody and dancing. This is the first attempt of Irving Berlin to write the croaic for an entire show, and he has done brilliantly. To name the tunes that achieved popularity would be to print the entire table of the musical numbers. oao of the best liked was "Settle Down In a One Horse Town," a song of tender sentl- v-ent, and another great favorite was "When 1 Discovered You." Both songs were ren- dered by Elizabeth Brlce and Charles King, who have again formed a theatrical partner- ship, litre are two artists who are always a pleasure to see. There is not a man and woman team on the stage that work better tofcthr-r than Charles King and Elizabeth Brlce. The big moment of the piece is the finale of the second act where occurs a syncopation of the quartette from "Rlgoletto, 1 ' and this bit alone is well worth the price of an or- chestra seat. The scene Is the interior of the Metropolitan Opera ouse. The ghost of Verdi protests from a box because of the syncopation of his immortal woe*. The pa- trons of the Opera House are doing every- thing tat listening to the opera. Indeed, they are bored to deuth with the opera as Verdi composed It, so they slnj it and se- lections from other operas in ragtime. There 1s really no reason why Tan Clip- pee should dwell at length on "Watch Your Step," for its success Is now theatrical his- tory. Harry B. Smith furnished whatever plot the piece disclosed. The company is a large one, and includes names that are known wherever there is a theatre. Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Castle, the dancers, are prominent In the production, and their artlstl" dancing scored heavily. Mrs. Castle never looked lovelier, and she wore three unusual and beautiful frocks that arrested Immediately the attention of the women in the audience. Her dancing was fascinating to behold, for she is the acme of grace. Mr. Castle, of course, also score-I with hb dancing, and bis work as a comedian is ex- cellent. It will be remembered that it was as sn eccentric comedian and dancer that Mr. Castle made bis bow to the New York public. Another gHfhne (favorite was Elizabeth Murray. Here is a real comedienne. She gets her laughs easy and to hear her sing a song Is a genuine treat. Some of the song hits fall to her, ntd she puts them over the iootllghts as few singers can. It was good to see Harry Kelly again for he was responsible for much of the evening's comedy. His successes were Immediate and emphatic. Charming Battle Fisher scored also In songs and speech, and did wonders with a part that gave her no opportunities. Frank Tlnncy came on late and kept the audience in almost constant laughter with bis gags. He played three roles, all In black face, and then- played a cornet He hat much new stuff, and. he has retained much of his old matter. Harry Ellis, as the Ghost of Verdi, sang his role In excellent style. His rich tenor Tolce was sever In better condition. The opening night was a great one for Irving Berlin. Barely has a composer of popular music been given a greater ovation. The cottumes are magnificent, and tho scenery Is op to the Dillingham standard. The chorus girls are all young and are pretty. To sum it all up in a line or two, "Watch Your Step" Is one of the sure-fire hits of tho New York season. The dancing of the Castles and the chorus and the music of Mr. Berlin are sure to delight future au- diences. Kttcey. a Irving Place (Rudolf Christians, mgr.) —"Die Plcenlominl," the second part of Frledrich Ton Schiller's great Wallensteln drama, was presented Dec. 10. Herr Chris- tians artel as stage manager, and played the part Ortavio Plccollmlnd with splendid success, and to the apparent entire satis- faction of his audience.

Use Wehrmonn, as Tbekla. and Herr Feist, who, as Illo, contributed considerably to the success of the performance. The rest of the ispt was as follows : V.

(ninny swin, lion.) Another "wall varied" bill was what L. J. Golde banded "Chub" Swift to lay out for hla patrons last half of last week, and seed- less to say the year or more old husband of Mrs. Swift did so In hit particular thrifty way. Out front "Cbarllo Don't Do That" and ' The Little Lambs" blazed away in the lights. Inside John Cutty (new act) opened tho show, playing selections on n halt dozen or more musical things assisted by a blonde Joung fellow so regularly that wo imagined ohn had bunion trouble, too. O'Connor and Orben (new act), a song and dance duo, followed. Tho It3d Haven Trio, composed of German end Hebrew comedian and a robust female, repeated creating as much "surc-flrfj" suc- cess with tho burlcsqulah split-time calibre of material. The loving of a widow who charges "one hundred beans a lovo" In the German, and two hundred to the Hebrew, busting up of each other's hats, aud the "ghost' business are all tone through for "positive vaudeville laughs." The throe shall evidently continue to bo favored by small time audiences. Mildred and lluth (new not) arc a couple of girls who can sing as well as play the piano. "Charley Don't Do That," with a cast of three, was a positive novelty with tho liar- lemites. Jack Dcvrcauz, Bva Condon and Edith Spearo presented this illusion comedy skit at the t'nlon Square about a year use. Tho hiring of a young woman by a married man, to cure the "green-eyed monster" In hla wife, and the former's disappearances from wardrobe, clock, sofa and two trunks, as tho wife searches each for her "rival," is where the Illusion and fun comes In. A novelty for vaudeville, but hardly a desirable stunt for "the home." "Howard and Chase" was how two fa- miliar vaudcvllllans were billed. Max and Emmctt did well; la fact, wero tbe fun bit of the bill, due to tho former's "Judgo" bit and "nut" material, and tho lattcr's singing and 'cello playing. "The Little Lambs" was much more palat- able, due to the addition of a pretty blonde principal girl, since drat caught on the "pop" whirl. She poascsccs a good voice and wonts best of all. There's only one principal male (outside tho "tutor," who la In love with tho "Khool-marni"), and he does fairly well, ills fondling of tbe principal girlie's white stock- ing*, while hiding from the school mistress, should be cut, as should a line by the "tutor," when lie lots out, "Young lady, cover your- self," after sneaking into tbe pupils' bedroom (second scene). Two of the four girls assist- ing the principal girl's numbers work know- ingly. Frosaer looking costumes arc a no- ticeable improvement, and "pop" houses should see much of "The Lambs." Tod. "A GREASER" PRODUCED. "The Grcnscr," a one act play by Ralph Morgan and George Cronln, was produced for the first time on ni>y stage at tho Cort Theatre, on Wednesday afternoon, Dec. 9, as n curtain raiser to '"Under Cover." It proved to be a powerful play, with an nnpleiih.uit theme:—the kind of drama that I he management of the Princess Theatre, New York, likes to present. The play, which runs about twenty min- utes, bus for its see-no tbe interior of a ranch house In New Mexico. The iraito chat- nctcr is a young man who has been taught from early boyhood to despise "Greasers." Ills father had been murdered by a "Greaser,* and when be learns from the lips of Ms own mother that she loved tho "Greaser" who had killed hla father, and that be, the boy, was really the sou or the "Greaser," and that ho, too, had the blood of a "Greaser" In hla veins, the disgrace Is too much for tbe boy and lie kills himself, as bis mother and her lover leave tbe ranch Louie In a blinding snowstorm. linipli Morgan and Lucille Watson, of the "Under Cover" company did splendid work. Mr. Morgan, who Is a very young actor, gave a vivid performance as the unfortunate young man, and Miss Watson, who long sgo won her spurs aa a comedienne, bandied the emotional rale of the mother In a capable manner. It wag a new Una of work for her, but she proved conclusively that she could play emotional roles. Doflwia Mitchell and Prank Wuppormnn (the latter played tho "Greaser") old their work well. The one scone was typically Mexi- can. s Liberty (Klaw A Erlanger, sura.)—Otis Skinner will open here Tuesday Dec 21), In a new four ret play, by Jules Kokert Good- man, entitled "The Silent Voice."
