THE TWO BILLS HERB. The Buffalo Bill-Pawnee Bill engagement, opening la Chicago to-day, serves to relieve n monotony existing In local amusement affairs. This is the mid-season, and there la little of moment doing In Chicago Id the way of regular theatrical offerings, although prepa- rations are being made for the season soon to open, and rehearsals for a-number of pro- ductions, to be lent out from this city are under way. The cool weather. of late has had a tendency to hurt business at the local parks. But It Is an 111 wind that blown no good, and It Is gratifying to record the fact that the moving picture theatres and the Loop houses offering moving picture enter- tainment, are playing to satisfactory receipts.

GlOver, mgr.)—The bill presented here, week of 15, consisted mostly of songs and dances—nearly everyone on the. program put over a song or two. John Tiller was strongly-represented; two of his acta held prominent positions. "Fun In. a Harem," a musical playlet, was staged with Oriental effects and a company of twenty- three people.- While this offering was devoid of anything novel, - it -seemed to please. Winona Winter, who has entertained the pa- trons of this theatre many-times with songs and ventriloquism, was well'received.' Will Rodger*, ex-cowboy, who halls from Okla- homa, gave a clever exhibition of rope spin- ning, his witty sayings adding much to his '•ct. Nip and TUck. comedy tumblers, opened -the. show and went well. They, worked fast, and what they did was good." - Maud Ronalr and Joe' Ward Introduced several new songs that'were catchy and pleasing. Ergottl and Lilliputians, an acrobatic trio, were a hit. The '.'Sunshine Girls," another one of John Tiller's presentations, Introduced a series of dancing numbers by twelve girls, who could have made their act much better by working together. Ruby Norton and ' -Sammy Lee, In a singing and dancing skit, was one of the brightest spots on the pro- gram. - Miss Norton's singing'was hlghl* ap- preciated. Leo's dancing Is his forte. To appear week of 22: Jesse Lanky's "The Antique Girl," Master Gabriel and company, .

Co., visited Chicago lust week and had many things to say concerning the plana and pros-wets of the Eastern wheel liouscs and shows for the coming season. "The Eastern wheel houses havo been uni- formly prosperous during the season -which Just closed,' he said, "and the Columbia Amusement Co. takes that fact as a tribute to Its judgment In giving burlesque patrons what tticy want. "Never in the history of this form of amusement have such clean, well produced nnd well acted performances besn given as were presented last year, and wo are putting nut this season thirty-six shows that have never been equalled In burlesque. "These shows arc better staged, better cos- tumed nnd better acted tbon anything here- tofore attempted In burlesque. We are spend- ing more money than ever before for the kR c reason thnt we are now rertnln the public Is behind "s and appreciates what we are trying to do." * ASSOCIATION YEAR BOOK.
