ORPHEUM (Martin Beck, gen. mgr. Monday rehearsal 1).—B. A. Rolfe and Company's hand- somely staged musical act "Ye Colonial Sep- tette," which appeared In this city In 1905, as the fqature of the Orpheum road, show, is the. headline attraction for the week. Lew Auhln Lionel are two Parisian entertainers, who have recently been imported by the Orpheum'Company. Mason and Keeler appeared In a playlet en- titled "A Hero." Emlle Hoch and Company return with their familiar "Love's Young Dream." Perry Cowey makes use of all sorts of musical instruments. Others on the bill are Tlie Dahlman Cowboy Quartet in an act which they style "The Life of the Cowboy," and Cumpbell and Brady.—GREENWALL (H. Green- wall, injrr.).—Pollowlng in the wake of the Rice and Burton Gaiety Company, the recently or- ganized "Girl From Happy Land," will not prove a magnet of any great drawing power, unless something is done with the show im- mediately. In Its present shape it is a con- glomeration of "nothingness," and Hurtig A Seainon would do well to revise the show while the season la young, or better still insert two entirely new burlcttas and a few decent vaude- ville numbern. Every one of the songs now em- ployed should be thrown out at once, with the exception of "Mariutch." In this latter num- ber, all of the chorus girls are forced to do a "cooch" dance, evidently insisted upon by Nat Fields, who Is programmed in large type as the producer, and who has never been classed as a stickler for all that is "clean" in burlesque. The olio, the worst ever shown in New Orleans, Is opened by Sam Hyams in 111. songs. Hyams "When anauering advertiacmenta kindly mention Variety.
