NEW VAUDEVILLE ACTS Tom Terrlsa and Players, In "A Tale Of Two CitlcN." Keith's Union square, Mabch 14. Tom TerrlsB, Oie EnrUfdi actor (vrho first came Into prominence In American, raudcvillo by ofCorlng a boiled down edition of Dickens' "A Christmas Carol," under the title of "Hcroogo"), closed a very successful engage- merit at Keith's Union Square lust week In & tabloid version of Charles Dickens' famous novel. "A Tale of Two Cltlce." The cast was as follows: Sneaker of Prologue Fred Epltaui Warren Gordon Bcgg Sydney Carton Tom Terrlas Charles Danmy Edward Nalnby Lucie Hnnctte Ethel Patrick Doctor Manebte Fred Epltaux Ernest Do Fargo Stus rt Eaton Vengeance AUUan Terry Madame De Forge Maud St John FouquJer Tlnvlllo William Lewln Judge Herman Walter Clark Due De Charters James Witlard Count De Launay Clifford Boyne lllmi ., Lois Carrutherg Nobles. Soldiers, Citizens, Revolutionaries, Judges, Jury, Sansculottes, etc, etc. Period—1792. As can readily be seen from tho cost the producnion Is one of the largest seen In vaudeville, ft Is In six scenes. Comlderhig the fact Hat Mr. Terrlss has boiled down the story to forty-three minutes we can for- five the certain liberties tnait bavo been aken with this masterpiece of fiction. In the main, however, tho playlet Is faithful to the novel. For the benefit of thjse few who have not rend Dickens' wonderful tale of the French Revolution. Mr. Terrlss bud an actor ap- pear before the curtain and give a brief synopsis of the play. "A Tale of Two Cities" Is too well known to bo told in these columns. The play ends with a tableau showing Carton mounting the steps leading to the guillotine. This was a scene of great lm> presslveaees and wonderfully carried out as to details. The tribunal scene, which occupies, of course, the full stage, with Its well drilled mob. called forth a round of applause. It was an elaborate set, and In many respects It was as One a stage picture as shown by either Henry Miller or Martin Harvey, when these actors presented the play In Its entirety under the title of "Tho Only Way." It wus In the trlbunlnl scene that Mr. Terrlss got a chance to do some real acting. He Is a character actor of ability, and this performance of Sydney Carton will do much to further his reputation as an actor in this country. Do was la splendid voice all week. Eloquently ho delivered Carton's last, Inspir- ing lines—"It Is far, far hotter thing that I do, than I have ever done. It Is far, far better rest that I go to, than 1 have ever known," Mr. Terrlss' support, was, however, vc7 poor. Kelccy. * Frank Sheridan and Company, In "Blackmail." Keith's Union Square, Matineb, March 17. Another sketch of the underworld variety, entitled "Blackmail," was offered for the first time here Monday matinee by Frank Sheri- dan and company. It la from the pen of Elchard Harding Davis, and created a fair amount of interest. The story concerns a married woman who had been tricked in/to a Ercvlous marriage, and has been subjected to lackmall by a supposed minister for several years. A Urge demand made by him brings Lit to her senseB. -She pays a visit to an old 'friend who has struck It rich, and tells him about her troubles. They plan a trap into which, of course, the villain falls, and all ends happily. While the playlet at times Is a little talky It has the "punch" at tho finish, which is bound to put It on a par with any act of Its kind. Mr. Sheridan, as usual, gave a sterling performance in the rhnractcr of the lien mine owner. Harold Hartsell, as the black- mailer, nnd Boso Curry, as the wife, gave exceptionally tmo performances. The full cost: Richard Fallon Frank Sheridan 1 .on Molina Harold Hartsell Kelly Louis Woods Mrs. Howard Uose Curry It runs about twenty-two minutes on full stage. jack. • * Lillian Hale nnd Snger Dean. ftlumtAY. Hill, New York, March 10. "Tie Actress and the Earl," tbe new skit, wns shown for the first time In the East on Sunday afternoon and created a very favor- ublc Impression. Miss Hale, as the actress, is coaching her husband, an carl, to assist her In tho sketch, and his conception of tho role, rendered In his thoroughly English mnn- tor, furnished good amusement, as did the energetic manner In which Miss Hale di- rected him nnd upbraided him. as well as herself, for tying up to an article of his de- scription, In the hope of becoming a duchess. Near the finish a telegram Is received Inform- ing the curl of his brother's deatb, which 'would make him the heir, and, with all her expectations rcalltcd, she forgives him hla shortcomings and they are off for Rector's, after finishing a typical duet on Bnglnnd and America, entiled "Not a Chance." The act furnishes twenty-five enjoyable minutes. Mlas Hale appeared well in a blue spangled gown, end Mr. Dean in full dress, with monocle. Mill s " Billy Roarers. Kami's Union Square, Matinee.

Jaok i Alice Fischer nnd Company, In "Mrs. Jack." Colonial, Monday. Evening March 17. In a one act version of her jticct'ssful play, "Mrs. Jack," Alice Fischer made her vaude- ville appenrauci' here Monday, and, Judging from tho success nttalned, vnudcvllio will claim her for some (line to come. She has cooseu tbe scene where "Mrs. Jack" visits Iter Knsteru relatives, and the many amusing lllmrtlani called for rounds of approval. Miss Fischer's portrayal of the lltlo role wns a meritorious one, as wns also the perform- ances of the pxccltent little company. About twenty minutes Is consumed, on full elngo. Jack.

(There ore four of them, who do the moat marvellous work on two horizontal bars about fifteen feet In height, placed one at either eidc of the stage, with a spring canvas under- neath, to break the fall In case of accident. On these bars two of the performers hang by their legs and, while swinging, throw ono of the others from hand to hand across tho stage Wbllo ho in. turning single and douhlo somersaults and double spins In a remarkable manner. Tho last stunt tbey do Is a thriller, and It holds the audience spellbound. The ?erformer on one bar holds another by the cet and swinging backward and forward until sufficient Impetus Is gained, with, a her- culean effort, he throws him clear over the bar he Is hanging on, and lands him In the hands of the performer on the other bar. This Is rmdoubtedly the best acrobatic act that has been seen here In a long time. Not a single miss was made In the entire set. About twenty minutes, full stage. - ■ —^» Arthur Geary.
