THE TBWM10S (Eastern). SAM RICE'S MFFYD1LS. COLUMBIA, NEW YORK, DEC. 2. "The Three Dukes" is the title of the opening skit, written by Frank Finney for tills si-nsou, and In It "Mr. Finney. Samuel J. Adams and Murray J. Simons bring out a lot of comedy with lively results. As a boatswain, Mr. Finney employs his comedy methods to good advantage, and as one of the "disgusting" dukes, In his admiral's uniform, cut a droll figure, and was right there when It came to making love. Sam Adams, as the big booby cabin boy, who ap- Solntcd himself a duke, was another benrt- rcakcr, in Cossack uniform, as the Czar's nncle, and Murray Simons completed the trio as a Hussar, who was solid with the newspaper correspondent. George Brennau was the scheming student; John P. Griffith, was an excellent Stockton Bonds, a broker, and Harry Mantcll filled in minor roles. Minnie Burke was there with the clever work in short skirts, as Peggy. Jnlla Sln- clait played Mrs. Van Bunk, ambitious to marry a duke and to secure one for her daughter. Elsie Leslie was the wide-awake reporter. Corinnc Ford was an energetic and sensible Aunt Qulmby, and Edith Shaw and Pierce Judau were Bond's daughters. There Tvus continuous action. Opening with a lively medley by the twenty girls In snowy black and orange dresses, Mr. fireman followed hi "The Birthday of the V. S. A." Minnie Burke contributed "Every- body loves a Chicken," with the girls doing chicken work to five encores, with appro- priate dances by Miss Burke and Mr. Simons. "Stockton Bonds" was a melodious number, nut over In excellent style by John Griffith; Edith Shaw and Pierce Judau Bang a debu- tante bit; Frank Finney's song about the politician was catchy: Jnlla Sinclair hod "I'll Do as Much for Tou," with the chorus humming nicely; Griffith's fine yodel song, assisted by the other men, with comedy addenda by Mr. Adams, was encored repeat- edly ; Mies Judith soloed "That's How I Need Tou" to undivided attention; "Every- body Two Step," by Miss Burke and Mr. Brcnnan, was reeled off in record style. The chorus bad beautiful blue and yellow gowns, with hats and plumes to match, for this number. "I'm Going Back to Yonkeelnnd" was the finale, with the naval and army cadets and sailors led by Mr. Griffin In a West Point uniform. Slides of a patriotic nature were shown, and a tablcan showed an Illuminated battleship sailing past the Statue of Liberty. The second act showed Bonds' office, with. Finney as the Janitor; Adams as the mes- senger, and Elsie Leslie as the stenographer. The attempt of Bond to conceal from Mrs. Bunk, that his daughters have gone on the stage, here lead to many situations, and riotous comedy work, with a stock exchange flurry finish, whereby Mr. Bond saves uIb fortune. A typewriter's duet with the office boys was tho opener, and the musical machines with electric light attachments, made a hit. Elsie Leslie warbled "I'll Sit Right On the Mooa" In her usunl taking mauncr, and had some encores. "Hltchle Coo," a topical number, was contributed by Frank Finney, with the rlrls helping. "Row, Row, Row" was a big hit with Edith Shaw. For this number tho girls were attired In garnet full tights, With showy yellow cloaks. "Tho Nightmare Bag" had Minnie Burke frightened for fair, and she shivered and shook and sang In the green spotlight. A novel costume was provided for the girls. The comedy In the second act was well fiut forward. A funny dictation scene be- ween Miss Lesllo end Mr. Adams got many laughs, also Mr, Adams, for his fog horn voiced ejaculations. Mr. Flnnev was a busy Janitor slamming doors and firing tho vis- itors. The Misses Show and Judnh flashed up Well In tlghls as full blown hnrlcsquers.

For a good, all around, up-to-date bur- lesque show, Sam Rice and his Daffydils, at Miner's People's Theatre this week, has just the right stir, and from the rise to the fall of the curtain the Daffydils present enough real entertainment to keep you up to the right pitch of enjoyment. Sam has surround- ed himself with a fine cast of principals and an exceptionally good chorus, who can* put over the numbers m Hoyle order. His show Is finely equipped with handsome scenery, beautiful costumes and novelty electrical effects. The first part, entitled "The Daffydils on Broadway." by Sam Bice, Is full of fast comedy bits, with the musical numbers so interwoven that there is nothing but con- tinuous action from start to finish. Madge Hughes started the ball arolllng with "Mid- night Choo-Choo," which went over In good style. "Parlsienne," sung by Bllllc HI1L was n tremendous hit. and tho rag dance at the f.nish was a fine offering, and showed Mabel Lynest and Miss Hill to be dancers of ex- ceptional ability. The minstrel first part was nicely put on by Lew Seeker and his minstrels. A closing medley of four songs, by the entire company, was a good curtain. "Masuma Land" was a real novelty and something new to burlesque patrons. This Is another of Sam Rice's stellar offerings. The opening scene, in one, shows sa opium fiend enjoying the enticing: fumes of the poppy, and his dream of money Is shown in scene two, "The Land of Gelt." This is n very handsome setting, showing bouses built of gold and silver dollars, trees of money, the Anhcuser bushes, etc. An elec- trical fountain spraying Btreams of water on the forms of five fair ones In the tanks is a novelty that deserves attention. The specialties offered during the action of the burlesque were of the Al order. The Clark Sisters, singing "You're My Baby," tore along In fine style and scored a hit. Boeson and Hughes slipped over "Ragtime Soldier Man" In good stvle, and their dan- cing finish was well liked. Lew Seeker handed the boys a little big league baseball dopology that tied the score. Sam Rice and Lew Seeker got on the job with a lot of fast patter that was Just right and staked tho boys to many a laugh. Mile. Vortex, that dainty little aerial per- former, thrilled with her wonderful mld-alr act on the bit and wire. Mile. Vortex sns- pcuds herself in the air holding a bit with her teeth, performing wonderful evolutions la a graceful manner. This act was a real sensation. "On the Mississippi" closed the burlesque. Sam Rice, the chief merrymaker, kept tho audience In good humor from the beginning to the end of the show. The fans didn't seem to get enough of Barn's comedy. His work was a real hit Lew Seeker jogged along In great form. Lew was always on the job and got every- thing that came his way. Horry S. Le Van was nicely placed in a .Tew character, and got over nicely. George Johnson was very much in evidence through- out. His voice made him a real factor, and his work made him a feature. Dan Conroy, as the tad, was there with the brogue, and his dancing was well liked. Tom Beeson Jr. and Eddie nart got over cicely. Bllllo Hill, a newcomer to burlesque, gave n performance that was a treat. Miss Hill is a handsome blonde, who knows how to wear her gowns, has a good voice, and con fiut across her songs with magnetism that umiedlntely wins her audience. Madge Hughes Just romped along In the soubrettc role, and scored at all times. As a leader of numbers put Madge Ilugbcs down as one who has tho right Idea. Tho Clark Sisters, two little Mondlcs, were much In evidence, and their work was good. Their songs and looks were the kind burlesque fans like. Chorus : Bnbo Clark.

"Bluch" Cooter was presented with a cigar box section of a peanut farm by his neighbors in Eldscn Court, Rockaway Beach, at a theatre, party given by them at the Co- lumbia, New York, last week. Com.

He has been busy for the past week superintending the addi- tion of another story to the Ccntrcport Yacht Club House. i v ' ' I Ax, Reevbs played to the biggest business In the history of the house at Hobokcn, Dec. 2, nearly equaling the amount generally played to In three days. COLUMBIA CONCERT. At the Columbia. New York, a good sized house attended the afternoon show and a packed house the night performance. Tho Bclmonts opened with a showy acro- batic and ring act. (See New Acts.) Ryan and Belt, a likely couple, sang and danced, the lady proving herself an excep- tionally nimble high kicker In the opening stanza. A skipping rope dance- further in- troduced her The conplo then went Into a sailor hornpipe with many eccentric steps and movements, the lady's work being equal to any man In that line Iza Hampton and company had a sketch of the future, when the husband stays home in a kimono to mind the baby and the wife goes gallvantlng about In an aeroplane until all hours of the night The wife returns homo late to her complaining spouse, and Is visited by another club member, who makes love to the defenseless husband. A quarrel ensues, and finally the husband throws off the yoke and asserts his authority. The action was laughed at, but the dialogue did not hit very well. Bogert and Nelson Introduced tbelr min- strel troupe, consisting of themselves and a lot of singers and musicians painted on the drop. The exterior of the opera house was the opening scene, and some talk between the lady Interlocutor and the colored Janitor resulted In his being engaged for the end- man. In the show he sang "Row, Row, Row" to repeated encores. Miss Nelson, sang "Oh- You May," and the entire company sang "Goblin Man," with "Salvation Army Bag- time" encore, and the Record Wasblng-L'p Gag" to good returns. "The Lawn Party" introduced nine juve rile performers. The talent promised for the party was stalled, and the children them- selves made up as Mantell, Tanguay, War- field. Fay, Tcmpleton, Cohan, Irene Frank- lin, Caruso, Bessie McCoy and Lillian Rus- sell. The Imitations Incidental to each char- acter all caused applause. The young man who played the sheriff proved himself a first class knockabout comedian, with a novel as- sortment of falls, and stunts, and delivery. He kept the house laughing. Laurence Johnston and his winking and milling dummy provided ventrlloqutal diver- sion of entertaining nature, and their Imita- tions and small talk was well liked, also the singing. Jim O'Brien and 'boys, a singer, a pianist, and a violinist, put over a number of songs in good form, including "AB Aboard for Ala- bam;" "Ragtime Cowboy Joe," "Ghost of the Violin," and "Take Me to that Suanee Shore." The violinist contributed a ragtime medley with good results. The "Top o' the World Dancers" showed their fine act, including the four men, the nine girls, and tbe six collies. The big bear was especially well played, and the princess doll and the entire act made the usual big "It JffH. Cabaret news. Wolff's Inn, Boston Post Road and Lnrch- mont Avenue, Lnrchniont, N".

NEW YORK CITY. (Continued from page 7.J "THE FIREFLY*" Lyric (Sam S. & Lee Shubert, Inc., nigra.) — The Firefly, a comedy opera in three acts, book and lyrics by Otto ilauerbach, music by Rudolf Frlml, first presented in New York by Arthur Hammersteln, with this cast: Sybil Vandare Vera De Rosa Suzctte Ruby Norton Pletro .....Sammy Lee Geraldlne Vandare Audrey Maple Jack Travcrs Craig Campbell John Thurston Melville Stewart Mrs. Oglcsby Vandaro Katherlne Stewart Jenkins Roy Atwell Herr Franz Henry Vogel Nina Emma TrenUal Antonio Colunbo Irene Casslnl Correlli George Williams In "The Firefly" Arthur Hammersteln has succeeded In getting another capital vehicle for bis fascinating star, Emma Trentlnl, and one which should prove a big winner for him. The music, by fir. Frlml, Is more "clnssv" than Is usually heard in works of this class-, but still the composer has succeeded In glvlDg the proper lilt and catchlness to the various numbers (there arc twenty-one In all) so necessary to ninkc them poppular with the mass of theatregoers. The book and lyrics are capital, probably the best Mr. Hauerbach has given us, and there Is a pretty little story running through the work that gives It an added charm The opening Knows Recreation Pier,'at the foot of Twenty-third Street, New York, with a steamer docked. Mrs. Oglesby Vandare Is about to chaperon a party of young people on a pleasure trip to the Vandare eBtatc In Bermuda. In this party are Geraldlne Van- dare (niece of Mrs. Vandare), Jack Travers, her fiance; Sybil Vandare, John Thurston (Jack's uncle), Herr Franz, a musician; Jen- kins, Mrs. Oglesby's secretary; Snzctte and Pletro, servants, and a crowd of young men and women. As the boat is about to sail Jack hears Nina, an Italian girl, singing. and takes a fancy to her. She Is a friend of Suzette and Pletro, and they Induce her to put on boy's clothes to enable her to come as a cabin boy with the party. She sings and Herr Franz hi entranced by the supposed boy's singing, and "he" Is taken with them. "Tony," as the "boy" Is called, wins bis way to the hearts of all save Geraldlne, and ahe finally Induces her aunt to send "him" away. To prevent this, Herr Franz deter- mines to adopt "him," but the discovery of " 1 ony s" sex upsctB this plan, and the party returns to New York. In the mean time Ger- aldlne discovers that she docs not love Jack, but does love his uncle. Three years later, at the Vandare New lork home Mrs. Vandare Is giving a recep- tion in honor of the approaching marriage of Jack and Geraldlne. A great artiste, a Mine. Glanlna, has been engaged to sing for the occasion. Of course, this singer is none other than little Nina, who, uadcr the tutelage of Herr Franz, has become one of the world's greatest singers. Geraldlne re- leases Jack to accept Thurston, and the cur- tain falls with a tacit understanding between Jack and Nina. It is a pretty story, prettily and consist- ently told. The situations are good, the characters m well drawn, the lines are bright, and the lyrics arc capital. With such a libretto It 1b little wonder that the composer found inspiration for such pleasing In drawing the character of Nina Mr. Himcrbach has been most felicitous, and has given Mme. Trentlnl one of the most pleasing creations In which we have scon her. And tp the author's work In this direction this ar- tiste haB added her fascinating personality with the result that she Is delightfully charm- ing. Vocally, she was perfection. Aside from several very catchy songs, the com- poser provided her with two, "Glanlna" and Kiss Me and TIs Bay." which, being of grand opera calibre, enabled her to show tier beautiful voice at Its very best. At the end of act two. after repeated recalls, she was forced to como before the curtain and repeat one of her arias. Mmc. Trentml's acting also captivated her audience, her imp- ish tricks adding much charm to her char- acterization. To Roy Atwell was given the burden of the comedy, and thnt he easily carried It was evident from the pronounced hit he toiadc. Mr. Atwell Is n comedian of whom one never tires. His Btyle Is unique, quite away from the beaten path, and Eh dry humor la of the kind thnt compels laughtci. /• 0 ™ U1 J re iT U , nnle ' " elvlllc Stewart and Craig Campbell all acquitted themselves well, both as to singing and acting Ruby Norton and 8nmmy Lee, eld vaude- ville favorites, danced their way Into the good glares of the audiences, and also proved themselves clever players.

After several postponements, Cecilia Luf- tus made her American re-appearanee at tbe matinee here of Dec 2. Miss Loftus has been quite HI since fair return to America some weeks ago. and tbii fact, and her desire to perfect herself in several new Imitations of American aitnam, has caused the delay la starting her l/i: over the Keith circuit. That Miss Loftus' reception at her K. »i entrance on Monday was a most cordial «< goes without saying. There was a spontaneity about it which must convince the talent"! woman that she Is as popular here as in t-'t own country. Nor is It necessary here to dwell upon her performance on Monday. She again demonstrated her perfection in an art which has made her famous and pre-enikmit here and in Europe, and In not one of if Imitations on Monday did she fall to '■> closely follow In voice, gesture and peculiar mannerisms of the well known stage pen* she Imitates. Her imitations on Monday in- cluded Mrs. FIske. Jane Cowl. Nora Bans Bllllo Burke, Florence Nash and Kay Sani- nela. .
