The New York Clipper (July 1913)

July 5 THE N1EW YOBK CLIPPER. id England! Has Sent Ds many good things bat belt of all Pear., tbe Map of qaelity Mid purity -there'* 1SS» years Off reputation behind — Dears' M SOAP —lio. a Cake tor the Vmccntcd Jileanure In hie episode, called "Vindication," or be solicited and received our deep Inter- est from beginning to end. And bow natural Mr. Keenan did act, and now realtsltc be made it all seem with bis wonderful char- acterization of a Southern colonel. It was •Imply great every minute. The skit Itself la an excellent -vehicle for the star, and Mac Barnes, In the part of the Governor, gives able assistance. Mr. Kecnan was forced to take a half dozen bows. ■Hcey and Lee proved to be Hebrew come- dians of merit. They sang snappy parodies and talked a lot of foolishness until they bad them all laughing. In spite of the fine bill which preceded them, the boys came back very strong and closed with a big band. Harry Weber and the Wilson sensational dancers, wbo were late of Marie Dressler's Co., offered some of the latest fade In dancing in a pleasing way. They were well applauded for tnelr graceful work, and more of It would bavc been readily accepted had the two artists saw fit to present It COLONIAL. Considering that this is practically the, hottest period of the year It is amazing to see the huge patronage which Jones, Llnlck A Bhaefer's Colonial plays to, both afternoon and evening. Another feature of the policy •f this house Is that they do not advertise • big headliner, hut endeavor, very success- folly, to have six or seven standard acts, one equally as good as the other, and con- sequently making it live entertainment throughout. Instead of sitting through • "dead" show waiting for the one big noise. Manager Harrison runs the show with a nap, -which is Indeed another attractive fea- ture. >For the first half of this week the Jean King Quartette was the first number to arouse tbe seat-slumping audience from its state of coma and stir up a little enthusiasm. Soring such hot weather it Is very easy for the audience to simply slide down In their ■eats and remain there, while It Is equally as hard for the artists to pull them back up and make them applaud. But the Jean King Quartette proved to be such a pretty and pleasing musical stunt that It Imbued the spectators with enough life to make them sit so and take notice and applaud quite heartily. Miss King, who formerly appeared alone, has surrounded herself with, an able trio of singers, who render bits of opera, popular ballads and a little ragtime all In good style. It Is true that the members might unbelt themselves a little more and not be quite so stiff, even though they are all dolled up la dress clothes and evening gowns. But they tan sing, and that Is enough to make It at worth while affair. Knapn and Murray succeeded in making the audience laugh at a lot of their Jokes. These two gentlemen pulled a lot of bur- lesque melodrome and "got by." , Murray's Canines were put through a num. ber of clever, stunts, such as tight wire walk- ing and turning a complete forward somer- sault The Alvo Acrobatic Troupe did some ex- cellent work. The straight gentleman of tbe trio was considerable of a wizard on the hori- zontal bars. Their ability on the bars was the feature attraction of the number. Their attempt at comedy was weak. The act closed with a usual amount of warm weather applause. Combls Bros, offered a very pleasing phy- sical culture act, also a series of Grecian poses, In which the boys used appropriate costumes to go with them. Half of the act, It might be well to say, was the winner, ac- cording to the banner displayed on the stage, of the first prize In the physical culture contest of the United States. That Is fair enough, Isn't ltf In fact, that alone gives anyone a license to appear In present day vaudeville. The boys closed their act with a number of strong arm feats, which were both Interesting ana excellently executed, so that, all In all. tola duo ranks as one of the, best en the bill. Nat Carr and company found no difficulty in winning the good graces of tbe audience right from the start. Mr. Carr is a well known (Hebrew comedian in vaudeville and knows how to portray the character In the correct manner, adding to It all with a good dialect A Utile story was Involved in the skit, enough to sort of hold It together and keep up the Interest until the end. The young lady and gentleman assisting Mr. Carr were capable, but were a minor factor along- side of the star. WITH C HICAGO PARKS, BIO PREPARATIONS FOR THE FOCUTH-NCMERODS HOLIDAY FEATURES IN VOGUE. (Bpeotal to The New York Clipi-de.) Chicago, Saturday. June 28. As Sans Souci Gabdbns preparations are being made for a crowd on July 4. There will be numerous holiday features.

A *12,000 fireworks dis- play, depicting some of the memorable events In the history of tbe nation, will be a bio feature of the amusement. The principal part »f the affair will begin at 0.80 In the Will be given on every Wednesday and Sat- urday nights at this piece. Whits Citt announces on additional at- traction In the Great Raymond, the magician, who has taken possession of one of tbe targe bondings In the park. The White City Billet has changed Its program, and will present a new terpslcborean endeavor, en- titled "The Masque Ball." It Is reported that the various shows ore playing to ca- pacity during this spell of warm weather. Bmnrww'a various rides arc in prime favor, especially the new one, called "Shoot- ing the Baplds." Both new and old are en- Joying the best of patronage. The Chicago organisations whoso object It Is to perpetuate the folk songs of Norway will gather to- morrow at Illvervlew Park's picnic grounds for their annual outing. Tbe sporting events for tbe week aro baseball games and motor cycle races between Chicago and Cincinnati. IUvinia Park. Bismarck Gardens and Co-mlskey Park will exert for the Fourth of July demonstration s. SUCH IS LIFE W CHICAGO. BT PAD. Now that the tourist season is at hand, a fS7, 9ll, . 1 f ,,t ***** "SMdlng Chicago, our great little city, may not prove amiss. Chicago Is bounded on tbe North by Morse's Garden. Morse has been dead for a number of years, but if you are curious to know who runs the resort, start something. On the South Chicago Is bounded by the Btock Yards. Any hot night in Summer, with a South wind, will verify this statement. On the West the city is bounded by Forest Pork, where many .wise citizens go, as it Is some distance from said wind of the South. On the East the city Is washed by the waters of Lake Michigan, which is the only part of the city that ever gets a bath. Chicago has a sky over It, but It is al- most impossible for the visitor to believe this, on account of our well known smoke. The city has the largest number of smoke inspectors of any city In the world. Over two million and a batf Inspect smoke here every day. Englewooo Is a part of Chicago, and was so called to give tbe vaudeville performers a chance to localize their jokes and get a laugh. Chicago is known for Its hog industry. If you doubt this try to get on a street car during the rusb hours. That' black smudge just East of Michigan Avenue Is the I. C. Railroad. It is next to our beautiful lake, and the people are "next" to the I. C, but It doesn't do them any good. They are going to electrify the I. C. some day. They should electrocute some of Its employees first. .Bobdehino on Michigan Avenue are some of the highest priced hotels In all the world. They overlook the lake, and a lot of other things besides, but not your money. •DiBECTLY to your right is the Art Insti- tute. It Is now tbe only place In the city where "September Morn" is on exhibit, and they don't back up tbe wagon. The Loop is a well known Institution in Chicago. Gold was discovered there in large quantities some years ago by Geo. M. Cohan, and he has continued to discover It every sea- son since—In large quantities. Any part of the city may be reached from the Loop by elevated trains, providing cars stay on track, which they sometimes do. the Blalto is in the heart of the Loop, end is only a five minute walk from any or the principal hotels, which Is why it was so located, as walking Is quite popular with tbe average actor,'likewise less expensive. The College Inn 1b a famous eating em- porium. Yon can get something to eat there If you are strong enough to carry a bribe heavy enough to catch a waiter's eye. A boy at the door takes your hat when you go In the College Inn. When you come out he hands it back, providing you band blm some- thing in return. If you have any money left after tipping tbe waiter and bat boy, you may then go to a lunch room end get some- thing to eat. There are a few cheap lnnch rooms In the Loop, but they don't make any money, merely enough to buy their owners half-million dollar homes. Wr. are now entering the famous Lake Shore Drive. To the left is the beautiful home of Mrs. Potter Palmer. She loves her beautiful home so much that she lives eleven months of every year In Europe, and the other month in New York. Hbinib Zimmerman is to get a hundred dollars if he Is good for two weeks. We have to be good on a great deal less than tbat. "How -Mbch Is a Million ?" is listed for production at the Fine Arts Theatre. Don't ask us. Ask one of the College Inn waiters. Theefi are 3,424 languages and dialects in the entire world. Friend wife can speak 'em ell on some occasions, believe us. The irony of fate. Harry Splngold, as related In this column last week, became possessed of an automobile. No sooner had he got It so that It would stand without hitching than some miscreant etoll It. Mr. Splngold says he doesn't know the true mean- ing of "Irony of fate," but If It's a new Une of swear words, It goes double and takes in the chauffeur. Nonette, the violinist who sings, is scor- ing her usual success at the Palace Music Hall, this week. "Floating Down the River" Is her encore number. Later: Mr. Splngold went to the police regarding his auto. Every policeman on the force, however, swears he will stand for a search, consequently Mr. S. will have to look elsewhere. __^__^_____ BARTOLA SALES CO. NOTES. Harry Lawrence, Billy. Edelmann.
