Clover, mgr.; sgent, Or- pheum Circuit).—The McUreeveys, held over from last week, were the hit of the bill Monday after noon in tenth place, and after the hrst performance were given the position next to closing. By this change Itosario Guerrero was sblfjed from elev- enth to tenth, and as the McGreeveys appear In one It gives the closing act, George 8utton, a chance to get his billiard tables arranged, avoid- ing u four-minute wait which marred the general excellence of the program Monday afternoon. Sut- ton had a new cushion on his table at the opening performance, which may have accounted for his failure to make one shot after repeatedly attempt- ing It. A card announces many of his shots as dllflcult, which ls an unnecessary word, as show- goers do not expect s champion to make simple shots. Madame M auricle Morlchlnl gslned ap- plause with operatic numbera. Rosarlo Guerrero proved a strong feature. Mra. Gardner Crane Co. weut fairly well with a sketch. "Plxley's Prodigal Parents." which haa as many weak, points as strong ones. Qua Edwards' "Holland Helnies" provide a pleasing one-act comic opera. Raymond and Cavely brightened up a rather slow show up to tbst point Mondsy sfternoon. and at night were moved from fifth to eighth place. Laura Buckley does s great deal of clever work, making up for various characters In view of the sudlence. Count De Buts snd Tossell, third, msnsged to smuse with s bicycle ect. Provol, second, went very well for tbst position. Conturs and Gillette open the ahow. B. B. MEREDITH. AMERICAN (William Morris, mgr. snd agent). —William Brothers opened end started things nicely with their comedy bsr set; Dlsmond and Beatrice, novelty musical, well received: Joe Welch, big laughing bit, with new material slnco Isst here, a big Improvement; Cardua and Naudlg. "strong set," went fslr; Ksrs, fsvorable Impression; Vera Mlchelcmv, well liked; June McCree, with fair support, went big; Jsmes Cor* bett. also a solid hit. Reel hit of show for loughs, Leon Mortis' Ponies and Dogs. Buslnosa good. O'CONNOR. SITTNBR'S (Paul Sittner, mgr.; agent, 8.-0.). —27-2: Sheen and Warren In "Quo Vsdls Upside Down." Mnlllnl Trio, Metbven Sisters, Haverly and Wells, Four Jordans. Good bill week end- ing 26. Young Brothers reptsced Checkers Voa Hampton and bis "Sunbeams," cancelled. On Chrlstmss night Young Bros, opened the show end were a good Isughlng number. W. L. Warden finished his eighth snd Isst week with new HI. songs. Glenroy, Russell snd Co. set hsd strength only In encore where the "compeny" hsd stege slone. It Is slong familiar lines with very old jokes. Hugh I. Emmett, ssslsted by HUdretb Bmmett were "No. 4," presenting e musical and ventrlloqulal offering which proved one of the strongest numbers yet seen at the house. Billy McDermott wss at a disadvantage following so strong an act, snd went badly. Both well, Browne snd Co. closed the show with s travesty slong the line of "sensational" dancers, at which It poked fun, being at all times amusing and never offensive. The audience was unwilling to believe that Mr. Browne was s msn until he rernovee? his wig. A little strengthening In weak parts might make this set scceptsble on the big circuits.— MERRY. CALIFORNIA (L. A. Oalvln. mgr.; agent, Earl Cox).—One of the better class of small houses snd change** bill Mondays snd Fridays. Christ- mas week saw poor business up to the holiday. The bill 20-23 was held up by Camllle Person I and Jack Halllday (New Acts), on last. The Mc- Carvers opened with an offering which' might go better In a theatre with better acoustics. De Valo and Llna, second, have a contortion act. The trick" are clever enough, but lack style. #The man stands Idly by while the woman per for ma. and does not appear to he at ease. The Two Blacks, third, play the banjo and dance, making a "fair" act for houses of the class.—MERRY. HAYMARKET (W. V. Newklrk. mgr.; agent. W. V. A. ).— Ordinary bill, lacks big feature and diversity. Wilbur Mack and Co. headlined, go nicely; Dahdnh Troupe and Five Avolos, good; Shields and Rogers, and Lena Pantser, from those two acts, do other numbers; Thalia Quartet, liked; II. B. Burton and Musical Silvers comnlete. MERRY. JULAIN (J. O. Conderman. mgr.; agent, Will- iam Morris).—27-2: Prentice Troupe, Bert Lem- mon, Vinton and Clayton, Hardle Langdon, and Warren and Brockway. Bnalness was poor last week, np until Chrlstmss Day. Pete Msck snd the Clancy Twins proved the greatest favorites with the audience. The Isds sing fairly well and Mack plsys a cornet poorly. They represent street
