Lily Cahlll, as Kthcl Cartwrlght. gave only a fair performance, which may have been due to tbo fact that sho was nervous, for It was her first Important role. Lucille Watson, as Iho chatty Mrs. Har- rington, delighted the audience oy tbe clev- erness of her work and the role of her doting old husband was capitally played by Wilfred Draycott. DeVVltt C.

For her opening number she worn a beautiful gold gown, and for her second, as a "boy," showed her shapely limbs. Miss Arcaro's third number, In bathing regalia, Is too burlcsqulsh for vaudeville. Her In- dian nuuabcr rounded her act out nicely to generous applause. Leigh De Lacey and company (two men and a woman), in a dramatic sketch. Interior. Action occurs in a tenement, Is melodramatac, and will do on any "nop" bill. Hiss Du Lacey works hard all tnrc results.

Tho lady In a swell gown Is a suf- fragette and thoy exchange repartee on the subject. "Love Mo" Is their duet. Miss Jackson sang "When You l'lay the (lame of Iaiyc." Mr. Brown appeared a comical fig- ure In the closeflttlnx bellboy uniform. The team was fired by the manager and Miss Jncksoa disconsolately warbled "I Left My Old Kentucky Home for You" to exit. The -Chinaman's "Dream" showed a likely Ciiluk, a Jealous cowboy with a gun, a tricky boy. some laundry stunts and the final awakening. Tito act held Interest. Mario Olivette, soprano character singer and I'OTncdli'Miij opened with "Come Hack To Mo," and then illustrate the "Perils of Toor Pauline," "I Can't Stop Loving You" and "You Aro Always Wolcotne at Our Houso" with success.
