We do not ask you to purchase $2,500.00 or $1,000.00 in stock as required by other Circuits. Our Show Contract is similar in form to that used by one of the large Circuits, except we give the Show a fair shake and you are not absolutely at the mercy ery be heard. If the amout to be expended exceeds $500.00, the matter is referred to our Board of Directors and the Owner or Manager again has the opportunity of being heard. Under the former conditions you knew nothing until you wereiinformed of the increased expense and ordered to comply. A noncompliance automatically canceled your Franchise. Our Franchise is tentative in form, not being operative until wescan book your show for at least twenty weeks, and then supply the additional booking as the Season advances, making full booking for the balance of the present Season.

Zallah, who laid no restraint upon herself in her pert of the entertainment, and con- tributed a Hue of work that caused numerous spectator* to loae their self-control and he heard is noisy exclamations. Dewey Campbell, as Bunk, la seen In sev- eral funny costumes. Including a burlesque on Zallah's outfit; Joe Rose played the Dutch- man, "A. Souse," with a slide: Walt;rParker had his share 'of the lines to. Irish, and Manny Holer, a sort of eccentric part as Wlfflej. Dick Carroll was a drummer, and Al. Doan the floorwalker. Kola IUgnold played a shoplifter, Vera HcKenna, the cashier; Moata Parker, an Insurance aseot The chorus included : Edith Lefler, Margie Martin, Jack Woods.

Leona Tickers, Franklc Lewis, Sophie Artz, Essie Fearrea.ll and Minnie Baric. The numbers included: "You Cant Live ■Without the -Girls." by Joe Rose: "Old Faamoned Bose," "Night Time Down in Bur- gundy." "Hear tht Pipers Calling," a pretty Scotch -numper £>EThe Cowboy Girls," by Margie Martin Hit RtHth Lefler, two lively chorus girls on Ole ends, who are up In the air ail of the time; "The Blue Jackets." in a scene showing the deck of the vessel, for a finale. The comedy includes an undressed girl in the elevator, and a chase across the stage; 4he want the button gag, Imaginary cigars and the delayed matches; also the airship gag, 'with the smashed cracker, the horseshoe and the brick. The quartette sang "The Old Oaken Bucket" sang and "Salvation Sal," all got good laughs. The second act showed Egypt, whence tine comedian had gone to rescue Zallah from her thousand year old tomb. Bunk succeeds In freeing her, and to show that the long en- lomoment had not stiffened her muscles any the limbered up*ln a few preliminary move- ments In the result and while crossing the stage, pursued by her various admirers, In different ways. "Swim Back to the Shore" was well sung; an Irish bit, entitled "The Irish Are Doing the. Tango Now," showed very pretty cos- tumes and good, work by the chorus. "Try 6Ie" was another engwdjac; number. Then camo the '■Balcony" song about Borneo and Juliet, with its gingery chorus punches to several recalls. ,1 The Walla Walla Man," a boogy-boo song, had some lively movements by all the girls. A float with several models was rowed down the river with good effect. Then, with a crash of cymbals and an announcement by her imitator, the real Zallah came Into the spotlUht and did all that was expected of her. What Zallah does she does right. A fact noticeable about these exhibitions Is that they affect the audience In such a manner that very little applause is gives, although there Is not the slightest doubt that they are folly appreciated. (There Is still another coming next week in Zubolda. with the Bevlew 8how.) The staff of Zallah's Co. Includes: Johnny Edthardt, manager; Charles B.

In reference to tbe glrla it ssys: "To prove that Beeves understands his busi- ness and uses a system, the show opens with each chorus lady and female principal appearing for a short hop, skip aud a Jump across the stage, while Harry Miller dlsplsys the lady's name on a sign that the old gentleman In the rear could read without bis glasses. That helped right at the beginning. At a race track you can't tell tbe horse and driver without a score card."

Annie Hart Is receiving good notices all along the With Stone snd I'lllsrd, la the Social Maids, the OolumMils. Chicago, has Just clrwetl the moat successful week In the history of this famous bnrlescjns house. This does not meau that there are any bad weeka at tbe Columbia. But It does mean that during tbe list week there has not been one vacant sest in this spscloua theatre to be found at any iierronuaiace and there has been enough persons turned away from tbe box otBra to Oil another good alsod pfayhouse. And, there's a reason I Everybody knew the show was In town. They were told about It lu large laming letters In so forceful a manner that it didn't slip tn one esr and out of the other. And atUl there are those who say this it a bad season. It Is—for bad boys snd bad shows. Bat for the live wlrea—tbe fellows who don't gumshoe in and out of town—•business la Itniiuxisc. If you have any question In your mlud aa lo the veracity of this statement as far as Cblcagu sad tbe Ooiuinbta Theatre la concerned, ]uat whisper the question Into the esr of Maurice Cain, Vat Golden, Art Pnllllpa, Charles Bragg, Kid Morrison, Kidney nankin, Waller Leslie, Harry Abbott, Sam Ftibet, Sam Dawson, Monty Ja- cobs, Prank Livingston, or any one of the doner, other sixty horsepower agents In the burlesque world, who bss let Chicago know ho wss In town, during the present season. There Isn't one of these boys that wears "O'Sulilvans." Their training In making a silent, forceful nolv dates back lo the palmy days of melodramas am. circuses when It was necessary to be a lightweight champion physically, and a belter orator than William .Tti.tiliig* llryan to be a genuine, dycd-ln- the-wool agent. ICtery one of them Is s past master In tho artistic use of an eiton»lon ham- mer, and with a nice, big paste brush they can do more tricks than Kellar. And to this little Association of Hustlers cau be laid much of tbe present day success of bur- lesque. Tbey here constantly driven the worth of modem burlesque for rest entertainment pur- poses home to tbe minds of theatregoers until they nave Anally convinced them thal'they are favor- ing themselves as .much ss the management In passing the much-beloved American eagle through the box-office window for burlesque. There la very little Ibese fellows csn't and won't do sliead of a snow with projwr oo-oners- tion on tho part of the theatre manager, and I believe they get It around the Columbia, for I tblnk I am safe In saylug that In strolling about the afreets of Chicago an uninterested person ran discover more live advertising matter for this burlesque theatre than for any two of the so- called legitimate playhouses la the Windy Olty. And back of sll nf these results lies that won- derful old training of tbe days gone by, thst hustling spirit thst was Instilled fiito the above mentioned agents, when Lincoln J. Carter and P. T. Barnura were tho Charles Klein and George M. Oban of America, Advertising to-day Is the very life of burlesque. It bns done inure than anything else to make burlesque, snd Is now doing more thsn snythlng else lo keen burlesque a tremendously Important factor In the amusement world. 1 pnerto'ialy s|K>ke of the matter of oo-opersllon on tbe i nrt of Itcuse rusnnKer*. And there Is s great deal behind that statement* for It only reverts bad: to tbe office In Now York where tho destinies of burlesque are controlled by Sam Scrlbner, J. Herbert Msck, Charles K. Barton and Charles Waldron, four invincible generals wh? form the "air school" that has led burlesque over many battlefields to an uiiiuialllted triumph. Wlthcut the faith, good will and co-operation of this wsr school s house mansger would be ss use- ful as sn umbrella on a nice clear Juno day. Hence It may be easy to aiipreelute my Joy when- on my coming to the Columbia I received from headquarters the simple command: "(Jo to It." MORE BARTON HOUSES. Mansger Rod Wagoner, of the Club Theatre, Milwaukee, Wis., advises that the Folly.
