II. 0.).—In Edwards, Van and Tlerney, this week's bill had a big, sure flre-hlt. The boys did It after Mclntyre and Heath had held the stage three-quarters of an hour with their "Georgia Minstrels." The blackface veterans were just as big a hit this trip as ever. There was plenty of holiday atmosphere to the bill. Ed F. Reynard and bis "Morning in Hlcks- ville" pulled down a large-sized bit. The act seemed funnier than ever. Another big act for the little ones was Howard's Ponies and Dogs. E. Frederick Hawley. Frances Haight and Co., in "The Bandit," slowed the bill up considerably after It was well started. It was on early, and for some reason caused the long- est stage wait that has been noticed here in a long time. This started the sketch poorly, and it never fully recovered until near the finish. The sketch left a hard spot for John Neff and Carrie Starr, but the couple were equal to the emergency, and quickly got the life back Into the bouse again. Once started, they sailed through nicely. Al White's "Jolly Jiggers" scored with an eccentric dancing act. All six of the dancers are clever steppers, and White has arranged a routine out of the ordi- nary. The Three Nevaros, with some capital hand-balancing tricks, started the show off In tine style. BIJOU (Joseph Dougherty, mgr. ; agent. U. B. O.).—Five Halleys; Murray and Mason; Sprague and Dixon; J.
