Homer Llnd and his company were on rather early In the bill, but had no trouble in arousing Interest. Harry Breen worked bard with his "nut" stuff and bad his people laughing in roars. He has added some new stuff at the close of his act which Is really meritorious and allows him to get away from bis utterly nonsensical line. Cecil Lean and Cleo May field were on as an extra added attraction. Lean, who Is a prime favorite here, came in for a warm reception and Mine Mayfleld sang and danced viva- ciously. They offered songs made familiar in "The Military Girl" and went over big. Brown and Rochelie, who twist and turn from a bounding apparatus, and while so doing are really funny, were put up in the bill, they having been set down to close the show. Corradinl's Menagerie of trained sebras, ele- phants, horses and dogs closed the show. The act Is unique and held the people to the final curtain. Baptiste and Franconi, billed as the two lunatics, were announced to open the show with Walter De Leon and "Muggins" Davles set down in second place. S. Morton Cohn, who spent several days here last week, announced that he has disposed of his interests in the Rees Circuit of theatres.
