If anyone Is looking tor something high class In burlesque take a trip up to the Co- lumbia Theatre tbla week and see the Star and Garter Show. Everything from burlesque to grand opera la shown by a company that Is second to none that has appeared here this season. The leading people have been chosen with much care, also the chorus, which con- tains sixteen handsome and shapely young girls who perform with much snap ana * ^Ke Flirting Widow," wrlttea by Frank Weinberg, is in two acts sad eight scenes, and gives the whole company ample oppor- tunity (or demonstrating their talents. The costuming throughout were nil creations In dressmaker's art, nbout ten changes being made. Harry Lester Mason was happily cast In a German role, and certainly got the laughs. Mason Is a comedian that is orig- inal In every thing be does, and In assisting in numbers he was a grand success. Jack Conway, as Tim Kellly, a retired alderman, has seldom been seen to better ad- vantage. He portrayed bis character in a clever manner. James J. Collins, in n straight role, looked and dressed the part. Harry Francis, In a duel role, was capital. EloUe Mathews, leading the females, looked charming. During the course of the enter- tainment she sported some handsome gowns. Corlnne Ltbr and Mildred Barrlngton were both well cast, and acquitted themselves with much credit. Handsome and nimble Fannie Vedder sang:, danced and talked herself Into much favor. The bulk of the work in the female end Is put on Fannle's shoulders, and the clever young lady met with much success. The musical numbers, about fifteen la all, were put on In good style. The principal ones Included: ,T My Heart," rendered by Harry Francis, In good voice to several en- cores; "The Washington Waddle," given by Fannie Vedder, with the chorus assisting, took several bows; a number entitled "Holi- days," showing the chorus in different cos- tumes, was well liked. "Call Mo a Taxi," a recitation number, ■was capitally done by Barry Francis. "The Whitewash Man" waa another rendered by Fannie Vedder, and brought her in good re- turns. "The Hippodrome was sung by Jack Conway, and It made such a hit that the au- dience made him repeat it several times. "The King la In the Bathtub," a one act operetta, was a scream, employing the whole company to good advantage. "Bathing," presenting tbe girls In handsome bathing costumes, was well liked. "Good-Night, Mr. Moon." given by Harry Francis and Eloise Mathews, with tiie chorus assisting, waa s riot, taking about a doien encores. "Julia," a classy novelty number, was given by Fannie Vedder, and In which she also danced. "Senorlte," by Corlnna Lehr, went big. Ella Smith, one of the ponies, rendered "III Lo," with tbe girls on swinge, that waa good for several encores. The aviation novelty, called "The Eaglo and the Girl," which flics over the audience, again i proved Its worth.

Hilda I'abtbidui, billed as "The Goldea Venus," was an Instantaneous bit last week with Academy audiences, where ebe was the added attraction with Miner's American*. Miss Partridge paints her entlro body with gold, -which makes a beautiful appearance, coupled with a splendid form, and gives s pcr- fortusnee of eighteen classic poses. Her ex- hibition wouM strengthen any bill. Acadbmi natrons will remember Etta Wells, of Miner's Americans, as the little lady from Brooklyn, who was received with much favor when hero four years ago, with the Cosy Comer Girls. At thst time she entered In h chorus girls' contest, and sang "She Was a Grand Old Lady." taking the house by storm. Good luck to you, Etta. Hans Rnao, the Lilliputian with the Amer- icans, made a big hit. MsaoARBT Flavin, leading woman with Miner's Americans, gave a splendid Imper- sonation of Lillian Russell, and la proclaimed to be the prettiest woman on the burlesque stage by both press and public. The close of the show, with Miss Flavin in black tights In a military number. Is a beautiful spectacle, and Is one of few that calls for several en- cores on the finish. Bads La Toub. with the Bon Tons, Is in- deed a clever little woman, and was well re- ceived by Gaycty audiences, who admire vi- vacity while singing. Bert Baker had many warm friends In the audience, and his por- trayal of Irish choractcra la well worth the price of admission. Sal Tso Burks gave the Newarkltes a dose of tangs, medicine, st the Umpire, last week. Basse this week, at Miner's Eighth Avenue.
