The act la booked to open March 10. before the snakes and St. Tat begin to celebrate. Pope and Uno In CM. Pope end I'no will open on the Orpheum time at the Majestic, Chicago, this month, with a large slice of European dates to follow. "Tiro Irish Terriers and Bloodhound." Frank Corbet t, Sam Shepherd and Walton Donovan, now kuown as the 'Two Irish Ter- riers and a Bloodhound," played a Sunday concert at the Wadsworth Theatre, up on Washington Heights, Feb. 22, and cleaned things up Uke ancient Qeorgle mutilated the now extinct "cherry" thing. It's no lie. Heck the Washington Heighten just salamed to their melodies like little George did in the woodshed trick, and now the trio has been chosen as the added attraction of the Broadway Girls, at Hurtlg & Seamon'a The- atre next week. More Doctor Bills. Carrie Lille, "the personality lass," has been adding more wealth to a certain Bronx physician's bank roll. She was taken HI and forced to cancel route and return for another spell of Illness at her new One Hundred and Fifty-sixth Street home, two weeks ago. But she's comln' around slowly now under the careful eye of her "mommer." Twenty-five Years Old. Proctor's Twenty-third Street Theatre will celebrate "her" twenty-fifth birthday on Thursday, March 5, and the way Manager Frank McCune Is smiling this week ouo would think he was "her" father. Bless his little heart. Joe Remington Still Bony. Joseph Remington and his company, pre- senting "The Millinery Salesman," comedy sketch, will open on the Pontages time In Winnipeg, Can., March 23.

They returned to South Australia after the Melbourne engagement for a re- turn date at the King's Theatre. !n Adelaide, where they were for Christmas and New Year's week. Hlnes and Fenton Split. After four years of partnership nines an<l Fenton "Stuffy and Sliver," mutually agreed to part. Botb comedians have teamed up with "straight men." Help I Dear B. K.: According to the "all figured out for you" seals of salaries appearing in l'at Casey's IlullcUn. dated Feb. HI, I should be drawing down something equal to twenty cents un bour. (Somebody's cheating.) Them Were Happy Days. 'Seeing Bert Roscnquest handling the as- sistant managerial reins down at the Four- teenth Street Theatre reminds me of when I went to skule with blm. Wo have both outgrown the lumps wo originated on one cuother's beds with Prof. Maxwell's Hlates, at least he has, for Bert is good to look upon, wile I—ah, don't laff, boys, the folks wui all out on the buty thing wen 1 blew In. But to git bak to Fourteenth Street. Bert teams to bo satisfied with his surrondlngs, for has be not got Jack Drlscoll still singing the ballards, and, by the way, Jack is set- ting thin. And then there's Harry Shea •tuning the bouse with pretty good shows •vrte few days without enybodle's help hut Harry Shea. Martin Shcan and Jimmy Flattery are featured as the "Keystone Caps" of the house, and the rest of the crew includes Leo Kenton, shelling out the stubs as treasurer; Daniel Green, chief ushering; Louis Conroy and Daniel Rice, chief and assistant plcktur operators, and LunleL P. Pinto on the door, while Dick Kcrwln Is a ducedly devah stage manager. Goc, these are Ibeppy days, too, fellers, even If we particular crltcrlng ginks aro classed In the "poor bum" bunco. Boo Slated tor Seventeen. No. Doc O'Nell Is not slated "to do" seven- teen months or years la Osstning or Muttca- wan or any such good places. It's too bad, I •now, but i well anyway I'm Just try- leg to tell you that the plump nut will bo feeding out the sniff powders at Oscar or Willie Hammersteln's theatre, up there on the corner of Forty-second and Seventh Ave* sue, during St. Patrick's Birthday week, Avllng and Lloyd Featured. Avllngr and Lloyd, those carefree come- dians, who ore compelled to work with min- ium In a pinch, are going to be featured In. a big girl act, which Is to be put nut by Jack Goldberg, of the Marcus Loew forces. ' Lillian for London. Caught LUUan (Russell) Bradley, the Hondo beauty, gathering in dates at the U. B. O. headquarters one afternoon last week. Lillian's flno soprano voice made her one of the favorites of Jurdin de Danso during her engagement there, besides carrying ber to more recent triumphs In vaudeville. She has seen booked by M. S. Bentbam for extensive European engagements, and will hi herself Londonwards via the Olympiv on May 10 ■cat. . In the meantime she would be a welcome song feature of local variety bills, lust as she was on the benefit bill for the Hebrew Inlant Asylum at Uio Casino last Sunday Bight Burke's Girls In Town. Caught Dan Burke's Wonder Girls up In Harlem last week. Jack Dempeey, a hickory ■ut comedian is featured in the present con- glomeration of song and frolic, and though there Is still a Holler girlie In the "girl" end •f it all, as when first seen here In 1010, alie is Dagmer Moller. The other live girlies surrounding Dempsey are: Ethel Stuart. Loans Sbaw, Cecil Von-Mason. Bvolyn Keam* and Catherine Brooks, all full of life and With shapely, musical-endowed limbs. One from Grayer. Grayco Connell, formerly Of Malson Jacques* "Cloak Models" act. In vaudeville, lut now filling a special dancing port with Ihe Anderson Gaiety Company's "Candy simp" through the West, says that while flaying a one-nlghter recently sho became faint, and as a relief asked one of the stage lands If the town was dry. "N-n-no. Miss, not 'zactly dry we do bov ■ shower now an' then.** Grayce later asked tho same theatrical magnate what "curtain" it was, and he wh ta- re red that ho thought it asbestos, but vouidn't chance testing It.

Wondered why Maude Ryan was unaccom- panied by "hub on Broadway ono afternoon last week, until I was pumped with the spoonful of unsatisfactory knowledge that "hub's'' eyes were in bad shape ana a rest was compulsory. Freddie's Crew' In Dancer. Freddie Becque, the coming impresario of the "movies," who runs feature picture shows In New City and Congers, N. Y., once each week, and his crew of Bob Hopper and Geo. Martllng camo near a catastrophe on tho way from the latter place night of Feb. 20, when their sleigh did a brodlc, and to or- ganization and feature picture, "Jerry's Mother-in-Law," were stuck Into the white etuff up to their Belmonts. They managed to lose no time scrambling to good breathing apace, and after lushing a telegram to Madeline, In Bay Ridge, that ho was still healthy and unharmed, Freddie and his assistants gilded on. He says bis illus- trated songs, sung by Columbia records, are setting 'cm up straight in New City and Congers. Last Week at the Fifth Avenue, Tho Meredith Sisters were on too early (No. 3) on the Fifth Avenue bill last week, but keeping tabs on the show Pearls ana Clara were ono of the pleasures of the en- tire entertainment. They made five classy changes, and besides continuing the "Hia- watha' number and special Indian set they used "Mandalny," "I've Never Been Kissed Before," "Hello, Wintertime," and a special Dutch number, all well rendered. They still have that taste for good clothes. Ted Lorraine and Hattle Burks sang and danced beautifully to a good reception. Joe Howard and charming Mabel McCane's mix- ture of sketch and song, and Miss McCane'S display of wonderful gowns, found them guilty of causing another small rumpus when They left I eat crullers like Vlollnsky Angers out that "Apache" Intermezzo on the piano (ask any one of "the girls" In Child's). Nuf sed. When Ward Johnstone tossed that half dol- lar over tho footlights for that "cafe pianist" finish of Vl's last Wednesday night I nearly dove out of as upstairs box. Vlollnsky got all that as coming and a few more bows that were.due. Gormloy and Caffery aro ono of tho best acrobatic pairs In their line, and were a great opener for the show. Tho black face Brown Brothers wcro good and funny when they danced on tho skates. "The I'lnno Movori" Is as well known as Edmond Hayes Is him- self, and Just as funny now as he and Tom Snyder always mado It In their respective roles, assisted cleverly by Marie Jansen. Herberts dogs nre up In the lead as an en- tertaining canine act, with that little loon- tho-loop terrier putting the fun to the beauty of the act. A good show, but hardly appre- ciated by the peculiar audience of Ola par- ticular evening. HarlenVa Cabarcters. Hurry your entry In for Tim Clipper's Bong writers' Contest and that tin cap, boys, to be held at the theatrical and novelty ball of the Dick Jess Association, at Burlaw! Casino, next Tuesday night, March 10. (I'm :oing to borrow an open faced Moe Levy If 'm fortunate, so have your monocle on or I won't give you a tumble.) Business at the Alamo, on One Hundred) and Twcnty-Qfth Street, continues to boom along scrumptously, with Jo-Jo and Delancy end Hattle Harlowe as regular songsters, and Irving Daah casing out "those melodies.' Henrietta Hanson was featuring "Camp Meotln' Band" and "Let By-gonea Be By- gones," besides doing a bit at the piano, up at Nlemeycra', nrhflo Bstella Sanson was romping through with "Kiss Me, I've Never Been Kissed Before," "You've Got Your Mother's Big*Bine aye*." "Mandalny" and too "'Rover" numbers In Mg fashion. Busi- ness IS BO-BO, 'Business at the College Inn appears to be most satisfactory. At least that's tho Im- pression the surroundings made on my bruised forehead last Thursday evening, Peb. 20, when wo dropped In for a peek and listen. Paul Cunningham had Just finished silvery voicing "I'm Crying Just for You" and "Dan- cing Around," and both numbers went smash- ing well. And who were slanted at a table nearby but the two Sams, Lewis and Body. (Wonder what they did with that chicken they won at the Inn, en route for Bridge- port?) Corbett Shepherd and Donovan used "Rubens Tango HuikbV Bee" end "Dandna Around" to their usual big reception, ana Elmer Fleming, chick and peppery, eased over '^Chattanooga" in good form, while Dave Foi romped through two corking good parodies on "Why Do You Hang Around" and "Got Out tuid Get Under." Mery Bruce, a pretty young singer, with abundance of soprano voice, was then an- nounced as a special surprise, and the way eho warbled "Isle D'Amour" was worth all tbe way It was received. Joe Goodwin, of Leo Feist's shop, was In, but didn't uso "Ragtime Dream 7 ' or "You Broke My Heart to lass the Time Away" for the rest of our stay: although Mae Vincent helped the sleep melody that Joe didn't with "Dreaming, '■ and Abo rrankoi, at the piano, during a fol- lowing moment's rest, tried to pick into fond recollections with a few strains of "My Little Texas Queen," and didn't know we had his number.

Joe Vogcl Is one of the best little assistant managers about the Loew circuit, too, if any fair one should inquire of you, nnd Man- ager Jake will vouch for such boost Jake protests against Ills patrons sacking their little dimes and quarters Into the cash win- dow without first warning them U a capacity house is already within.
