"Fun In A Delicatessen Shop," Including a company of ten, failed to grab stellar honors hero the latter half of last week, due to only fair work of the females In the sosg and slanoi ensembles. The act is com- mendably staged, showing an Interior Tlew of "che saop" and two excellent German comedians work hard and do nobly with the comedy situations all toe way. However, lack of rehearsals Is clearly evidenced In the chorus* -visits, and the principal girl does not eaual In voice her personal charms. There- fore, Walton and Brandt and Al. Wilson ran cote and nose for the position. AL Wilson was In opening position, and doing a black-face monologue, warmed right up to favoritism, and set a hot pace with a budget of comedy chatter and songs that started him a way out in front. Halgbt and Dean followed In a "drunk" comedy sketch that had the tun department working overtime. The skit is based on how the male party lannched himself in the wrong apartment and bad to steal a pair of trousers from an adjoining room to make a real decent appearance while he explained bis presence to the female who claimed to be the rightful tenant. It found the humorous vein of Its audience. Belle Meyers has aplenty of pretty ward- robe and made a change for each of her four songs. Belle's pajama number could be left out of her repertoire. Her dancing, to finish a Scotch number, is easily her best asset. Walton and Brandt, man and woman, worked up their baseball material to a big league finish. Supposedly at a ball game he attesapts to explain the grand old game to she. Like many women she falls to allow bis explanations to sink further then the edge of hex hat, and her retorts bring out the necessary laughs to a nicety. They never approach "tiresome" for a single mo- ment, ana sing as well together as they do everything else. The act Is well dressed, and all In all Walton and Brandt served out real good refreshments. Harry I* Salle, attired a la Spanish, opened in "2." juggled a guitar, knives and other stage things a while, and then did Tery well rendering a few selections on the string Instrument. His own drop adds a good touch to the act. Germar's Models, a well formed man and a woman, gave eight poses, beginning with "Venus,' 1 They work In bronze make-up, and were heartily applauded in each of their statuesque offerings, especially those of "Memories" -and "Reaching the Winning Post" Among the picture entertainment were: "Mollie's Mistake,** a Pathe drama -. "Broncho Billy and the Bustler's Child," an Bsaanay Western drama,; "Mumps," a Kinetnacolor comedy, and others. Max Witt's "Suffragette Jury" is featured for the first half ot the current week, be- ginning Mooday, May 12. with others, in- cluding: Harry Thriller, Billy Barron, Capi- tols, Byron and Lurch, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, aod'Ward and Barton. For the last half: Fields and Lewis, In "The Misery of a Han- som Cab;" Sidney Deane, Vera Bettmt Mile. Pauls, Muller and Muller, and Five Musical Lassie* Tod. GREELEY SQUARE. The bill for May 10-12 Included: Harry Rose, an energetic singer and mimic, who Eut over a nice line of souks. Including "I ove Her," "Oh. Oh, Oh," "River Shannon," "Robert E. Lee" and a burlesque opera. Adelaide Herrmann presented her enter- taining show of magic and illusions, con- cluding with a clever imitation, assisted 6y an attractive young lady. T*ae Nichols Brothers, ecrobets and come- dims, en skates, provided fun by their an- tics on the rollers, and their skating, dan- cing, rumbling, barrel jumping una high kicking was applauded. Maybello SlacDocald Bopnmocd an oper- atic selection, followed by "Last Night Was the End of the World," "A Little Bit of Shamrock" and "Old Girl or Mine," in good voice, to several final bows. James and Hlna Adelman had a "counsel for the defense" skit, wherein a lawyer is Induced to plea for the husband of a woman who enters his house with Intent to rob It, to secure means of engaging a lawyer for him. Both acted well. Wmiams and Dixon, In their "bunco" act, caused hearty laughter by their witty re- mark*. The German come-on proves to be somewhat of a sharper himself, but after- wards neJs with his victim in a good finish. The act was well liked. "When Women Rule," Roland West's act, shows coming events, when women become boss politicians and political candidates. It Is a clever satire, with usual conditions re- versed, and the various episodes, particu- larly relating to a trusting man who has been deceived by the candldnte. and a son who Is about to marry her. Many "screnms" were recorded, nnd the two ladles, as well as the male members playing the effeminate Characters, did well. George and Lily Garden performed well CD xylophone solos and duets. "'Back to Carolina" was the Illustrated song offering, and the pictures, including Th» Deerslayer," a two reel film, were in- teresting. UUL HAflHERSIEDTS. (WIC ■MO*—f, MSB.) William Hammerateln Is giving the patrons on the corner thin week a bill of slxtsea acts, which, as a whole, make up a bill that would considering Its variety, be hard to excel. A packed house was In attendance at the opening' performance. Bert Laraont opened the show with a clever wire act. Uary Delaon, a new comer, put over a combination of "junk" in a style al' his own. Ills hooking on the comer was some- what of a joke, and the rounders along the Great Whits Way were on hand to give him • rousing reception. It is very doubtful U Harry gits any further than the corner on hie pilgrimage of vaudeville fame, The Farrell-Tsylor Trio, offering their mu- sical novelty, "The Minstrel Man, was never seen to better advantage. Walter R (Rube) Dickinson, In his rural monologue, kept too audience In laughter from the start to finish of his act. and was a real feature on the program. Lord Kenneth Douglass Lome Maclalno made his debut in show business. (See New Acts.) Jack Norworth, assisted by the Honeymoon Four, had everything his own way. Jack has a cleverly constructed offering, consist- ing of songs and dances, which are put oa la an original manner, and Mr. Norworth and his company were a tremendous hit. Elizabeth Slurray entered upon her second week with the same repertoire of songs she used last week. Miss Murray is popular on the corner, and went big. Valerie Bergere and her company present- ed the intensely dramatic playlet, by Victor Smelly, entitled "Judgment" It is seldom that you see tears shed by the audience on the corner, but there were few dry eyes to be found at the conclusion of "Judgment" Miss Bergere's supreme effort as the wife of the accused murderer on trial was a won- derful piece of emotional acting, and she was a real sensation. Herbert Warren, as the Judge, gave a one portrayal of the char- acter; Katherlna Kavanaugh, Myrtle Smtth and Harry Smith were nicely drafted In their respective roles. The act was a tre- mendous nit Those 'Four Entertainers harmonised a number of popular ditties In good voice, and received a goodly share of applause Martin Brown and Boszcika Dolly made their vaudeville debut (See Net* Acts.) Sam and Kitty Morton ■were the same big hit as they have been In the past, and It must be said that they shaded all past efforts. The Farter Gtrla, two dainty maids of melody, have an original conception of delivering their songs, both girls have ex- ceptionally sweet voices and dance grace- fully. Though rery late on the bill, the girls held down their position, and went over strong. Tho diving seal and the Three Travllla Brothers gave an aquatic demonstration which was a real novelty. The Juggling Barretts closed the show. ^"^ om. PROCTOR'S FIFTH AVENUE. (aim ieccu.tr, Mux.) Another good program of tho regular Mc- Cune variety Is shown hers this week, and on Monday matinee nearly every seat waa occupied by an enthusiastic audience. William H. Thompson and his company, {■resenting his recent success, "An Object Lesson." made a hit on Its re-appearance here. The sketch Is a good one and holds attention from start to finish. The portrayal of all the characters were meritoriously per- formed. Another big feature was Joseph Jefferson, assisted by Felice Morris and Blanche Bender, la their skit, "In H'OO." which has been com- mented on often in these columns. It met with the usual success. Silvers la bis tunny, original pantomime, called "The Ball Game," had tho audlcnco roaring with laughter with bis tamorous antics. Ray Fcnton. and her Tankee Lads offered their singing and dancing specialty, and re- ceived much approval. The singing of Miss Fenton was greatly enjoyed. Irving GJotlar presented a planotogue and •ongs that met with much favor. The young man has a fairly good voice and put over his material in a bright manner. Miss Leltzcl and Jennnotte, two handsome and shapely young ladles, gave a remarkable exhibition on the traps and rings, and at the conclusion of their capable performance were given several encores. Sam. Lewis and Sam. Dody weren't on two minutes before they had the whole audience roaring with laughter with their funny talk. The several songs rendered by them were also well liked. Tom Davlea Trio, "Motoring In MU-Air," thrilled sa they always do. The Four Bards, the gymnastic wonders of the age, gave their sensational leaps and dives with excellent results. B. L. Goldberg, the "Foolish Question 1 ' cartoonist, drew several funny creations and finished with a series of pictures about a Dutch grocer boy that was a big applause getter. Harry Devlne and Belle Williams, In their rapid-fire talk, cleaned up. The Edison motion talking pictures pre- sented two more excellent subjects and re- ceived much applause. Jack. "IOLAKTHL »# COLONIAL Fourteenth Street (J. Wesley Rosen- " .) — Vaudeville and motion pic- tores. B. A. Boife's latest musical comedy, "T"c» Purple Lady," received its Initial metropoli- tan preservation at the Monday toaonee. (See New Acts, this issue.) Melville and Hlggins, In their snappy co- medietta, "Just Married," had everything their own way, and they were obliged to wait, at treses, for the laughter to subside. The skit Is surely a merry bit of comedy. Chris. Richards, the eccentric English co- median, got his material over In his own pe- culiar wey, and the audience liked all that he did. Bayard Velller's latest stage offering, The Diamond Dinner." produced recently at a downtown theatre, was given an excellent presentation by a carefully selected company, and held the close attention of the audience from start to finish. The playlet does not always follow the Lines of probability, but It Is Interesting and has the "punch." Lew Brlce and Lillian Gonne put over their singing and dancing specialty in ex- cellent style. They are both young In years, and stage experience, but they work with the assurance of veterans. Brlce is a quaint comedian, and cute Miss Gonne is well re- membered as "Sassy Little," with, the Ed- wards' productions. Bertish, the physical culture expert, with a stage till of showy paraphernalia, proved to be an excellent opening card, and the ap- parently easy grace with which be manipu- lated the heavy weights astonished the audi- ence and brought rounds of applause. Apdale's animals, in next to the closing eosltlnn'of the bill, pulled off quite a little iterest In the snappy and showmanlike man- ner in which the bears, monkeys, dogs and the odd looking ant eater were pat through their pares. The talking motion pictures dosed the MIL The subjects this week are: "Educated," and the olio, Edison Minstrels. Old Timer. HGKnSUXB. STREET. (BOBXST A. MAOO, MOB.) Baker and Baker opened with some high class vioKn. and piano selections, and pleased. Princess Indcta and her snakes rendered an Indian offering. She Is a snake charmer of merit, and was well liked. Tim McMahon's Pullman Porter Maids, with Ned Norton; followed and pot over a rollicking miniature musical comedy, full of singing, dancing and comedy. Ned got a laugh with every line, and the act went over without any trouble. Trslnor and Hunt la a singing, talking and dancing act, have a good lot of comedy In their act The dances are clever, and the songs well selected. They went over. Gregolro and Elmlna closed with a novelty Juggling act, and pleased. One act was canceled, and one wilt be added on Tuesday. Bermtmr. — i ■ Keener'* Third Aveane (Ed. J. Mc- Mahon, mgr.)—Vaudev.'lie and motion pic- tures. (3Alt TAUBIB, MOB.) The rarity of witnessing an American dan- cer being given the headline honors at one of our important local vaudeville bouses Is exemplified at this theatre this week. Not that Bessie Clayton and her company of ten Sretty girls do not deserve the honor, for :iss Clayton fills the position finely with her graceful and artistic dancing. Miss Clayton Is giving, practically, the earns act she gave at Weber <Ts Fields* In days gone by, and the act from purely a terpalchorenn standpoint has not been ex- celled in local vaudeville. Tho return to vaudeville from musical com- edy of SalUe Fisher Is also sn agreeable and welcome feature of this bill here. Miss Fisher received quits a reception upon her first entrance, and she rendered her songs In such a faultless and unaffected manner that each of them were applauded unstintedly. They Included: "Ono In a Million Like You," "Yon Are the Only Man for Me," In which Hiss Fisher assumed three distinct character changes of costumes. She closed with "Dearie" snd "My Hero," and although placed in the thankless position of the pro- gram, (directly after intermission), her re- appearance In vaudeville waa ana sure sue- UNION SQUARE. (a. r. Boons, mob.) The bill at (he "Square" this week eon- tains plenty of variety. Hugoston and Brummer open strong with seme nifty feats of canon ball juggling. (Se» New Acts.) Bob Flnlay and the Creslelgh Sisters were next offering, in up-to-date routine of com- edy, singing end dancing. They made mors than good m. a hard spot (See New Acts.) The Three Leigh tons present their ever- green classic, "A One Night Stand In Mln- otrelay," Including their novelty song suc- cess, entitled "Frankle and Johnnie." They vtere prime favorites. 2L Mlkolf and Ada Vanity danced light and airily. Their offering Is of a high class nature. (Seo New Acts.) 1 Adler and Arllno created gales of laugh- ter with a burlesque hypnotic act, presented In a very novel fashion, and introducing In- cidentally imitations of bees, cuts, dogs, sawmills and a morveloualy correct one of a jewsbarp. Thev were a big hit Wilfred Clarke and company played their farce. "What Will Happen Nextr possibly for the one millionth time, but its laughable situations and screamingly funny lines are just as riotously funny as of yore. Following nil the comedy and dancing that had gone before, Smith. Cook and Brandon cleaned up one of the hits of the bill with a medley of "vaudeTlUlsms." Smith and Cook's original comedy and eccentric dancing went over big, while Marie Brandon proved to be a pretty and graceful toe dancer of exceptional merit The Five Kartells displayed sensational feats of single and ensemble bicycling. They went very well Edison's "talkiee'* closed with a rube sketch and a novelty minstrel olio, and held the entire audience In for the finish. Busi- ness good. Harry. i "TEE BOWERY AFTER DARK. Olympic (David Kraus Amusement Co., mgra.)—This house changed from burlesque to stock melodrama May 12, opening with Theodore Kramer's effusion, "The Bowery After Dark." The Bowery turned out a representative gathering for the first night to welcome their old friends, Terry McGov- em, who don't look a bit like the trim little lighting machine of old, and Joe Bernstein, who is still in good condition, apparently. They filled In appropriately In the action of the melodrama, which now seems crude, forced and impossible. Charles Blake was a conventional Issy Cohen; Lynn Osborn Played Michael tho cop: Alice Gilmore was Mrs. Guggenhelmer; Arllne Bennett, Nellie, the waif: Mabel Cahel, Little Rags; Harry Seaman, the bartender: Harry Hoy, Robert Morris, the villain; Elmer Thompson, Twang Lee; Alfred Britten, Joe Howe, the rough- rider: Claudia Lucas, a capable performer, the villain's wife; Jeanetts Connor, Fulg, In, the ring scene Joe Humphries acted as the announcer for the three round bout, which la the climax of the play. The scen- ery is appropriate, but in the first act the characters walked right from the Bowery saloon out Into the woods, Thursday will bo amateur night and Fri- day Country Store night "Chinatown Charlie" is announced for next week. AMERICAN MUSIC BALL (COAX. S. POTSDAM, MOB.) Jerome and Lewis opened. They are both good singers and pleased. Williams) and Dixon, in a comody talking act might Improve their comedy lines. Three Emcrsons put over their excellent balancing act and got a good share of ap- plause. Leo Beers Is there with an excellent plano- logue. He rendered some good selections and took several bows at the finish of his act Gaylord and Uerron, In a comedy singing anl talking art. have an act that Is right up to the mark, nnd they certainly know how to put it over. Both are very clever nnd they had to come back several times after they finished. The Minstrel Four are a quartette that surely can bold Its own on any bill. Their harmony is keyed up to the standard. Among the songs thev used were: "Good-by Boys end "Sands of the Desert" William Lampo and company, Jn a drama- tic sketch, went over with a crash. It Is the kind of an act that will please any audience. "A Night in Chinatown" followed, and had 'no trouble in getting over. They put over plenty of laughs. Lina Pantser, in her trapexe act closed, and pleased. Seymour. * iesdeny (Sam'l F. Kingston, mgr.)— The Academy Stock Co., with 1'rtscUla Knowjes and Theodore Fricbus In the leading roles, pretest* A Butterfly on the Wheel this week. The fourth week of stock began May Oaaino (W. L. Rowland, mrr .]— loUmthe; or, the Peer and Ike Peri, an operetta. In two acta, by Gilbert and Bulllvsm, revived by the Messrs. Shuhert and William, A, Brady, on Monday, May 12, with this cast: Strephen George MacFarUne The Bad of Mount Ararat, Arthur dnntagham Tho Earl of Tolloller Arthur Aldrldge Private Willis John Hendricks The Train Bearer Henry Smith The Lord Chancellor Do Wolf Hopper lolanthe '. Viola Gillette The Fairy Queen Kate Condon Cclla Arms Wheaton Leila Louise Bartbcl Fleta Nina Napier Phyllis Cecil Cunningham The thousands of theatregoers who havo never seen "lolanthe" should hasten to tho Casino, for s genuine treat awaits fliem there We have it on the word of several old timers that this most charming of tho Gilbert and Sullivan operas has never been better sung or produced on a more lavish scale. To one fact however, the writer can testify. The audlcnco on Monday night (and It was ono of great size) enjoyed Itself hugely. The brilliant wit and shafts of satire of Gilbert was received with roars of laugh- ter. Much of the satire la up-to-date and timely, which is remarkable, whou one re- members that "lolanthe" was drat produced thirty years ago. "lolanthe" was last seen In Now York on January 8, 1000, when Henry W. Savago presented it at the American Theatre. It was, of course, offered in Now York several times before that De Wolf Hopper played the role of the Lord Chancellor, and he was a positive de- light Never did he resort to horseplay, de- spite the fact that the opportunity to do so is great That Mr. Hopper is a great come- dian has long sgo been conceded by all of the dramatic critics. His rendering of the nightmare song (ono of the longest and most difficult of "patter" songs) was la Itself a remarkable feat and the applause which greeted the comedian at Its ctoso wsi hon- estly deserved. Cecil Cunningham, a new member of the company, scored a great personal success in the role of Phyllis. Not only Is she the pos- sessor of a flue soprano voice, but she Is a fecantlful woman with a most engaging per- sonality. She should be prominent la the future in New York productions. George MacFnrlane, who can not only sing, but who is an actor as well, acquitted him- self In masterly fashion lu the role of Strep- hon, and Arthur Cunningham, as the Earl of Mount Ararat, was capital. Never have we beard him sing so well. Kate Condon, as the Fairy Queen, was also well cast, getting every line of humor out of the role. Her singing of "Ob, Foolish Jay" was a vocal treat Viola Gillette, In the title role, was dis- appointing, to say the least but In justice to her. It must be said that the rolo gives Taer no opportunity to shine. A word of praise Is due John Hendricks for his splendid singing of the rolo of Private Willis. Ho was compelled to give several encores. Dainty Anna Wheaton, as Cclla, had no trouble In making herself a warm favorite. Arthur Aldridge, as the Earl of Tolloller, again scored with his singing. His acting Is Improving. The scenic effects are beautiful. Especially fine is act one. which shows an Arcadian landscape. The costumes were designed by Melville Ellis, and the color effects sere charming. Don't miss "lolanthe." It will give you •X evening of rare enjoyment Kelccy. s Proctor's Vlftj-rLjhth Street (John Buck, mgr.)—VaudovlUo and motion pictures.
