(ilium hwivt, hub.) with the exception of an act carded as "Washington rJchoolbouas," the bill appear- ing here Oct 22-25 was equal to any that has been put on at tbls "family resort" since variety chased tbo stock fella out, thanks to I* J. Oolde, who. unless we're not far off, Is still doing the booking of tbls theatre. "Washington Schoolhouse" consisted of five male members, made up In the charac- ters of Woodrow Wilson, as the teacher, and four acholari, one as Couunon People, one as John D. Rockefeller one as Wm. J. Bryan, onu the last as 'Teddy" itoosevclt. The "teacher" In this act has done very well In a "single", turn with magic tricks, etc. He should have stuck to It. The act was swung - from No. 6 to "opening*," after' the' night show, Oct. 22. Much "schooling" might muko the act'lit'for tlio small time, even though there's not a singer In the five. It doojs with the "picking" of all on tbo Common People scholar, and their finally, "kneeling" to him when Common People threatens to quit, etc. The panning of each character from a political standpoint creates tlie laughs. isurunni and Scnrth, "nut" comedian and clever young woman pa nut:, did wonders in tbe opening position the above show. Man works la gray checked suit and small tele- scope hat throughout, but tbo girl makes a chnngo from a "smart" looking mannish tailored blue serge milt (carrying cane) to a white and gold Taccd gown. Their material Is fast and wcirked up to big punches, though ' lie "fake laugh" business Is rung In too much. They'll bold their own in an early snot on the big time, but tbe man wants to change his single comic song for a newer one before tbe plunge Is made. Both are good performers. * Mark Sulllvan-Kcougli and company were seen in a comedy political sketch, "A Mid- night Appeal." tliai Is good for the two-a- days soon. (See New Acts.) No. 8 brought Solly Lnvoy on for singing of Ballad McDonald and Harry Puck's ani- mated song, "On ltnncli 101." Much fun Is derived from, a "Nance" character who goes West to become a cowpuncber. During the scraping up of the "Inspiration for a song" Puck has a lover's part (well played), but McDonald's work with a fuddle norso makes me believe bo tins done some ranching his own self, for ho appears "at horns" In the stirrups. Sol sang it well, It is one of those odd melodies. Leila iSelblnl always has a novelty to spring besides riding bicycles and monocyclic In union suit. As "The Hntliln.T Old" she can still be termed as "Tbe Ulrl with tbo lieautltul Byclusbes" and other personal chnrms as well as carrying a chic looking girl assistant In a pink knickers suit and a colored fellow, whoso wide open mouth re- ceives the brush after "Oo-la-la"-Lalla points n picture of a dog on a blackboard. Against this Is placed another board, and when dropped again a "trap'* In the first board liberates a young terrier who follows in "In and out" walking of the spokes in Uio single wheel Miss Sclbinl then performs on. She finishes, playing a mandolin while riding u tnonotyclc. Just oa enjoyable as ever, and a big lilt here. The Mimical Fores (Now (Acts) followed the 1'atho Dally News, uml were a success. Ernie flutters and Matt Keefe (New Acts), Mack face and straight, went big with good putter and songs. 'Annlo Abbott, "the Georgia Mngnate," probably a bit more fleshy, but just as clean- cut both In herself and mystorlous magnetic performance. A dozen men were recruited from tho audlenco and struggled desperately agnbist Minn Abbott's "will power" to budgo her from tho stage proper In lift fashion, and pushed hard to crowd her against a screen where she held off their attack with her Index lingers upon the hands of two of them. They also failed In a hah* dozen other ways to bulge this gifted young woman, nnd cnused much fun for the capacity crowd out front. Miss Abbott Is Just as convincing a talker as ever, and ber personality Is ox the golden type.

Of all the shows in wMch Montgomery and Stone have appeared "Chin-Chin" It assuredly the best In every way, and when It Is remembered that they nave starred in several splendid productions, this may seen) strong praise. But it Is not for this, their latest vehicle. Is superlatively excellent It surpasses all of its predecessors, In which, tbls clever pair nave been seen. In beauty. elegance, tuneful music, bright dialogue and clever lyrics. Tbe subject chosen, "Aladdin's Lamp," lends Itsolf to many happy turns, and those responsible for its construction have let no opportunity slip. The story tells of the search of Violet Bond (who Is traveling with Iter father) for an old lamp which she has heard of and which, of course, Is the "Won- derful Ijimp." The lamp Is In the tea room of the Widow Twankey. Aladdin's mother, and Abanazar, a rich old Chinese "viMtan is also trying to get It for Its wishing power. Viol it and Aladdin meet in Abanatar'a bric-a-brac shop and fall la love. Aladdin gets tho lamp, and by Its aid becomes a wonlthy prince of China. Everything goes well until the lamp Is stolon by Abanaiar, who takes Violet thousands of miles away, sailing through tbe clouds In a Pagoda, a motion picture effect Through the aid of Cbln Hop Lo and Chin Hop III the lamp is recovered, end Violet is restored to Aladdin's arum. Of eonrsc Fred Stone Is the cbtef fun- maker, and what ho doesn't do to entertain is not worth doing. Ho Is ably seconded by David Montgomery. The pair sing "Ths Chinese Honeymoon," "Go Oar Big Gong Jue," a Chinese sous, and "It's a Long, Long Way to Tlpnerary, while Mr. Stone sings "Temple Bells" alone, and with the aid of Violet Zell does a most remarkable dance. This clover pair were never seen to better advautnge, and Mr, Stone fairly outdoes him- self. Chnrlca T, Aldrlch whoso role of Abanazar edmlts of his disguising himself Introduces his specialty of lightning changes. Belle Story's voice Is heard to the best ad- vantage In "Violet," "The Gray Dove'* and "Little Dc«ds of Kindness." In the second named she docs some rcmarkablo coloratura S'niTU-,g. Tho Misses Brcr-n do n very clever Teddy *ear dance and the Brown Brothers, as tho clown band, give an example of saxophono plnylng -wblch has never been excelled. The specialties trbove mentioned arc so In- troduced as to seem a nnrt of the piece aud not merely put In to (III up. A word of special praise Is also due Doug- Ins Stcvonson for Ills singing, and to Helon falconer, whose rise from the choriiB ranks lins been rapid nnd well deserved. Miss Fal- coner and Mr. Stevenson indulged In a Sleaslrg dance, which won much approval, 'he other members.of the cast all did good work. The staging of the work by Mr. Burnslde 1b another laurel in his wreath. The music, by Mr. Caryll, In its entirety, Is tbe best he has ever given ue. The work of the chorus Ites never been excelled in any work of a similar character seen on the local stage, end 'the production as a whole Is summed up In one word—magnificent. The house was ifllled to Its utmost capa- city, and aniens all signs flail. It will con- tinue to be so for very many weeks to come. Walt ' WL01ACY."

IV.—The iFaret Secretary's Office la the British Embassy, Parts, ' Produced under the etage direction of Gustav Von Seyffertlts, A theatrical event of importance last week was the revivalof "Diplomacy." wltb Will- iam GlUette as Henry - Beauclerc, Blanche Bates as tbe Counteasa Zlcka. and Marie Doro as Dora, and all week long crowded houses have been In evidence at this fashion-, able playhouse, for In addition to bia three stars, Mr; Frohman has gathered a company of players of reputation to prevent this ever popular play, which; for construction and character drawing, is admirable. Ths slory of Sardoii's "Diplomacy" Is too we'l known for repetition here, but in Its present revival at the Empire there is a notable modernity. There Is mention of cnauffeura the gowns ■re of the prevailing fashion, the telephone has been Introduced, nnd there are references to present i day celebrities, such as Lord Kltchner and vesta Til ley. The Henry Beauclerc of William Gillette was a fine bit of acting, for bis quiet, laconic method Is well suited to tbe part. Nineteen curtain calls were awarded' this sterling actor. Uarle Doro, looking prettier than ever, scored as Dora, and In the big emotional scene that Is hers, sbe rose to dramatic heights of which we never suspected she was capable. Fascinating and always Interesting was the Zlcka of Blanche Bates. Her IUiBslan accent wan wonderfully true, and It was to be regretted that she forgot it at times. Tbls may hare been due to nervousness. She was especially fine In the scene where she confesses to Beauclerc. Good work wag also contributed by Leslie Faber, as Jullen; Giorgio Majeronl, as Count Orloff; Qiistave Von SeyffertltE, bb Baron Stein: (Miss) Jeffreys Lewis, as the Mar- »ulse De Rlo-Zares; Norman Thorp, as Algio 'alrfax. Henry Dornton was stage manager, and left nothing to be wished for. This excellent revival of "Diplomacy" should do a good business at the Empire. Ktleev- AUDUBON. (HJJMY THOMS, MOB.)
