A rattling good bill Is on tap st "The Square" the current week; in fact, It goes above any program that Manager Rogers has slipped across to us In many weeks past. There la a variety of enter t a inm en t In It that is seldom so equally sprinkled. Emm* Carus, Jlmmle Brltt and tbe Avon Comedy Four top off the bill. What more could you pray for? As magnetic and mirthful as ever Miss Cams added another to her many former successes, In her "own way" of easing over the vocal stuff, while she is still tbe goods In pulling the Irlsher business. She offered hall a dozen numbers, and used "That's How I Need Yon" for an encore. This was a good bit, and with a couple of "plants" out front, one who eonld and one who ootildVt warble, It went over big. Jlmmle Brltt came near losing his balance when the audience greeted his entrance with a riot welcome, but the ex-llghtwelght cham- pion soon fonnd himself, and, looking as fit as a fiddle In an evening suit, he related some funny experiences that occurred during his travels, and finished with a recitation entitled "A Finish Fight," that was com- mendably well done. Jlmmle pleased bis audience by appearing In a neat suit of black tights and white trunks for this bit. The Avon Comedy Four are as harmonious and funny as they ever were or expect to be, and the act was a scream from the school room business to their close, in one. Jones Smith is about as funny a "Ylddisher" as anyone would ever want to laugh at, and he had 'em doing the giggle continuously throughout the act The boys are all pos- sessors of good singing voices and work charmingly together. Sansone and Dellla In a unique gymnastic act, are among the leaders In their line of work and In the opening position on the bill the act was a winner at both the mati- nee and evening performances on Monday. The male of the team does some excellent feats of strength, especially when he balances his woman partner, seated on a bicycle, at the top of a pole, on his chin. She assists him finely In holding half a dozen chairs locked together on her chin. The swift man- ner in which they work adds to tbe merits of tbe act, and tbey were roundly applauded. Mile. Anna Buckley's pantomime novelty closed the evening's entertainment. The canines do all the stunts that other acts of this type do, and do tbem well. But the skating bear that Mile. Buckley Introduced, is something entirely new. Old bruin skates around the stage Just as much "at home" as though he were without the wheeled foot- gear, and when three little monks also skated into view, the audience couldn't hold back their applause any longer. Ibis one of the most enjoyable animal acts we have had the pleasure to witness in some time. Karle and Curtis and "They Lived Happy Ever After;" A. Seymour Brown and "The Concealed Bed," were new offerings, and are reviewed under New Acts In this issue. Tod. . i a EIGHTY-SIXTH STREET. (I. BERNSTEIN, MOB.) The Consolidated Booking Offices have ar- ranged an excellent blU for the first three days of the current week at this houBe. The large audience present applauded every act on the bili save one, and that was so poor that the management was compelled to can- cel it after its first performance. As a matter of kindness we refrain from mention- ing the name of the unfortunate team. Two very pretty girls, billed as Bochner and Gross, opened the bill. They are neat and graceful in their dancing, but their se- lection of songs could easily be Improved upon. One song was sung so slowly that it seemed that they would never reach the end. The girls do a splendid act, however. A newspaper sketch, called "Copy," found- ed upon the steampshlp General Slocum dis- aster, was well received. The cast, which was headed by Byron Douglas, was a com- petent one. Mr. Douglas was excellent as tbe city editor, but forgot his lines once or twice. There are about seven (men and boys) in tbe scene, which shows the Interior of au editorial room of a great dally news- paper. The sketch was at one time played by Edmund Breese at the Colonial, when Percy Williams managed the house, and it tells the story of a city editor who, In print- ing the names of the killed In a steamship fire, finds tbe name of his wife and child on the list. The playlet gives the spectator an Idea of how the dailies handle big news stories. Rice and Cady carried oft* the comedy hon- ors of the show. They are too well known to need tiny lengthy mention in Tub Clip- per. Every minute that they were on the btnge. the "house" was laughing, Wilson, Thurston and Stewart, a Tathske:- lcr trio (men) got over big despite the fart that their act Is rather noisy. They are all good singers, and the one at the piano knows how to tickle the "ivories." The Yamantoo Japs closed the bill with some clever stunts on the high wire. The men are rather tall for Japs. The Eighty-sixth Street Theatre is one of the prettiest houses In town. It has a seat- lag capacity of 1,700, and there are times when the management wishes the house was larger. Thiri Roic. ■ a Academy of Mu»lc (Samuel F. King- ston, nigr.).— The Red Mill was given a revival at this house, Monday, Oct. 21, that proved to be very meritorious. Walter S. Wills ap- peared In the role created by David Mont- gomery, and Nell McNeil played the one which Fred Stone made popular. Both Mr. Wills and Mr. McNeil made a great deal out of their opportunities, nnd scored decided suc- cess. Others who made Individual bits were Messrs. Dox. Don, Naughton and Lavlgne, and Miss quins. The piece was handsomely staged, and the chorus work was excellent. The cast in full: Kid Conner, Walter 8. Wills; Con Kidder, Nell McNeil; Jan Van Borkem, John B. Simpson; Franz. CharlcB Dox; Wll- lem, Dave L. Don; Captain Doris Van Damm, William Naughton; the Governor of Zealand, Maurice Lavlgne: Joshua Pennefeather, Louis Dean ; Gretchen.

The re-appearance of Ada Reeve before tbe New York public last week, after a lapse of nineteen years, brings to mind the many changes in vaudeville (or variety) since the year 1803. At that time tbe theatre which gave op- portunity for a display of her marked ability In songs, which are not only sung, but aefeo as well, was one of few of Its kind In this city, where there are now a dozen theatres devoted to Oils class of vaudeville. This fact, however, does not excuse the pen-pushers In tbe realms of vaudeville tor announcing that Miss Reeve's appearance at this theatre on Oct. 14, was her debut before a New York audience. For her second week of this engagement at the Colonial Miss Beeve gave six songs on Monday, 21. These Included: "In the Garden of Your Heart,*' "William," a song of the "slavey" order, and "Young Ladles, Beware." Her third was a dramatic recitative number, describing a woman's temptation to desert her husband, but mother love pre- vailed and saved her. This was the gem of her repertoire, and scored equally as strong a hit as during her performances last week. Her last song, entitled "Those Were Stirring Times," evidenced the wonderful versatility of this remarkable woman. Her costume, (which she did not change), was of white silk, with rich black lace over- drapery. Second position In big type prominence of the bill here this week Is accorded Ida Brooks Hunt and Chertdah Simpson, who were prominent in musical comedy, and have established themselves ln the vaudeville field almost at a bound. Both ladles are good to look upon, and vaudeville has made a dis- tinct gain in the addition of two excellent singing voices. Gertrude Vanderbilt and George Moore gave their delightful singing and dancing number amid applause which greeted all the best bits of their offering, and this means that the applause was nearly continuous. As a dancer Miss Vanderbilt continues to hold a position ln the very front rank, and as a duo this talented couple have no superiors. The right hand of welcome was extended to Joe Welch, and. If possible, his original type of Hebrew characterization scored stronger than ever before. It doesn't matter whether the material used by Mr. Welch be new or old, the manner In which It is sent across will always be remembered as a type of character embodiment nnequaled in Its simplicity and perfection of stage art. The pleasure In listening to Tim McMahon and Edith Chappclle, In "How Uubbv Missed the Train," first starts ln quiet chuckles, but it Is not long before the entire audience Is convulsed with laughter by the very natural- ness of their acting, and the pointed charac- ter of the dialogue employed in their sup- posed "spat," or matrimonial Jar. The act of the Australian Woodchoppers was a distinct novelty, and likewise a pleas- ant surprise to the Monday patrons. As tbe chips began to fly the Interest as to which of the expert axeman would complete his Job the quickest became general, and the win- ner was awarded salvos of applause. The audience liked this act immensely. Hsydn. Dunbar snd Haydn, one of the best ratheskeller acts In vaudeville, were away out In front as applause getters. As now arranged the boys are giving the best act they have offered since the re-organlra- tlon of the trio. Tbe audience wanted more of their vocal harmony. Techow's cats performed with their usual deliberation in some of their stunts, but this was part of the act. and they "stalled" natur- ally, not purposely. They, however, did all that was asked of them, but It was amusing to witness the blase actions of some of the felines. The Frey Twins, in their physical culture demonstrations, held the close attention of the audience, and their wrestling finish was a fine expose of that science. Old Timer. s LINCOLN SQUARE. (CHAS. FERGUSON, MOB.) There were no vacant seats here at elgui p. it., Monday, Oct 21, and there were half a dozen rows of standees trying to hide their Impatience by shifting from one foot to the other, while wondering, perhaps, If the people who were comfortably enseonsed ln seats had any homes. Regarding the new show, it was by far the best offered here under tbe present manage- ment. Designated in vaudeville vernacular as a small time theatre, the term, for this week's bill, at least, Is surely a misnomer. Heading the bill Is an act with thirteen people, eleven ?d.rls and two comedians, and produced finely n three set scenes. Ten of the young women appear ln several changes, some of which are rich In texture and color, and they also ap- pear as bathing girls In order to give good form Its Inning. The piece is replete with catchy songs, in which syncopated specialties were eliminated. The two comedians were Jack Freeman and BlUy Dunham, and there was a yeans* woman, whose singing and acting ln the leading female role places her la line for musical comedy. The comedians are clever, the piece Is finely staged, and there is an abundance of good dialogue and most pleasant; end tuneful music. And ail this at cheap prices—and on the "small time." It was a pleasure to witness the sterling comedy work of the old time performer, Harry Lc Clair, and when, ln one of his songs, he aBked "How many remember the actors of the good old days J" It was doubly pleasant to hear the quick response which came from the big audience. Mr. Le Clalr'B character Impersonations have not deterio- rated in the slightest particular since the time when, in the good old days, he was at the very front In this line of stage endeavor. He was greeted with rounds of applause, and took six bows at the close of his act. The King Bros, demonstrated the possi- bilities 'of physical development and athletic training in several feats of lifting, also acro- batic work of a high order. Their closing stunt, a leap over four chairs and a table, ln a hand to hand catch, was surely a corker. An Illustrated song number came ln here, vocalized very pleasantly by a young woman. It's title was "You're My Baby," and every- body knew it, and joined ln ln the chorus. Hall and Francis, opening with their own back drop, "Melrose Farm,' put over some good dialogue, but Mr. Hall's two songs were not well chosen, Miss Francis, however, Is a cute and dainty little girl, and she can sing like a bird. Their neat finish got them by nicely. Jere Stanford started quietly with a whistling solo told a few stories in "rube" chc meter fnlrly well, but he evidently felt sure ln reserving his one "best bet" for his finish. Endowed with one of the best tenor voices i'.card In vaudeville in many a season he fairly electrified the audience with sent'- mentai ballads In, which sweet yodellng pre- dominated His net closed a surefire hit- Dorothy Richmond and company held tho sketch position of the program In a dramatic sketch. "Tho Only Way." While the acting wbb fully uo to the requirements of its lines, there was tho ever present fault of an over- crowding of action and situations, which eliminate probability, and the attempted effect is lost Old Timer. a Daly's.—Motion pictures of Sarah Bern- hardt, in "Queen Elizabeth," began the second week at this house Monday, Oct. 21, Good attendance ruled last week.
