For several weeks Miss Sawtelle was laid up with a very sore ankle, while the brothers worked steadily, and the report, possibly, for this reason, gained circulation. We nave just concluded about seventy-five weeks In the vaudeville bouses of the Western Vaudeville Associa- tion, and are this week at the Temple, De- troit, with Keith's, Cleveland, to follow. These are return dates within five months, which prove the popularity of our twentieth century dancing act Madge Dattbll closed a very successful engagement over the Hodsles circuit, and has the J. E. Jackson circuit to follow. She re- ports meeting with success through the mid- dle West, and expects to return East Boon. Fred Bowman, banjolst, is playing clubs In Philadelphia, and Is not the one that was billed at the Grand Opera House, Peoria, III., week of March 19-24.

We played the Bon Ton, Phila- delphia, week of Msrch 19, and our act was one of the substantial hits of the bill at every performance, and we received some very nice notices from the Philadelphia papers. We will play the middle West this coming Summer, and return East in August, as we have been offered some good time for the Fall and Winter season In Eastern territory."

AMD Masie Lamo write from Ha- vana, Cuba, as follows: "We have Just fin- ished one of the most pleasant engagements we ever made, at the Cafe Verledades, Ha- vana. We came for four weeks, and were given eight weeks before rehearsal. We are now playing a fonr weeks' engagement at the new Palatino Parana Vrvoll Teatro, the beautiful new Spanish theatre at the Havana Coney Island, a Summer and Winter pleasure park. Unfortunately the park is playing no free attractions, but our Influence with sev- eral prominent Cuban and Spanish politicians put us In the theatre. We are the only white American act over there, playing the vaude- ville bouses, and it has been one continual round of plensure for us. So far, salaries are not high, but the long engagements more than counteract that part we Boon bid fare- well to Cuba, as we open with the good old Wallace Shows at Peru, Ind., making ths second season for us." Al. G. Field Notes. —A Winter noted for Its mildness has passed. Spring, with all of her pleasing accessories was due, when, without warlnng. we were greeted with bliz- zards and anow drifts. For two aolld weeks It has snowed daily. Yesterday, Sunday, 18, Kansas City welcomed us at our opening with a bllcsard, while the storm tended to effect the opening business. Receipts under the circumstances, however, were satisfactory. Our season will be curtained Just one month, owing to the fact that our advertising matter baa run short. In other words, our agents have been too prodigal in the use of the bill- boards. The season will close the last of April Instead of the last of May. This Is an early date for the Field Minstrels to cIobc, but the early opening makes It a long season. Naqei. and Adams closed their sbow at Valley, Neb., March 17. Mr. Nagel will rest at Hot Springs, Ark., and Miss Adams will return to Baltimore, Md., where Mr. Adams will again join her and go Into vaudeville again.

Ms. and Mrs. Dailet, In Mr. Dalley't orig- inal act, entitled "A Night In Shanty town"' report big success through New York State, nnd are booked solid until September. sweet \ The Turkish word meaning strong " is applied only to the blend used in the Murad, and best describes its dis- tinctive quality- It* aroma is "sweet;" its flavor is "jull." Other Turkish cigar- ettes may offer one quality or the other, but no other cigarette so ideally combines smoothness with fragrance. The blend used in CIGARETTES is preferred by the blending experts of Turkey—for its original and distinctive flavor and fragrance— for its soothing effect on a taste overtrained by continuous smoking of other blends. The Murad never tires; the Murad never irritates. 10 for 15 cents Harby Bcbton, magician, writes: "I close my vaudeville season at the Bijou, Canton, 0., March 31, and will return home to pre- pare for the opening of the Great Wallace Shows for the coming season. In 1907 I will produce something new In the way of magic and illusions." Geo. l. Gbboohy writes: "My Twentieth Century Vaudeville Stars and Moving Picture Show Is playing to big business down Bast. Managers pronounce It the most pleasing show they ever played, and are asking for return dates all along the line. The show 1b compoBed of the following well known per- formers : The Gregory Pantomime Troupe, In their laughing hit, 'A Clown's Confusion;' the Three Emeralds (Hess, Rich and Jor- dan), in their funny skit, 'Casey's Court- ship ■' Alice Arllne, coon shouter and illus- trated songs; Billy Hess, Irish and Dutch comedian; Jules Mart Jnetti, acrobat, and the btograpn moving pictures.
