Diversified hill to a pleasing extent at the American the last half of last week. Business of about the same proportions as during the summer. Marcou opened, with shadowgraphlng. His silhouette routine Is not extraordinary but is deftly executed. Msrcou appeared to out his act A stronger closing Is needed. The two Bohemians scored substantially. One man does the vocal work and does It well for those who like the classical stuff In foreign tongues. Ths other chap manipulates an accordion. The medley and whistling accompaniment put the turn In big favor. One advantage these foreign combinations have Is that they oan change their names to suit any house. The Harrison Armstrong Players offered "Squaring Accounts," two chsractsrs. Ons Is an old skinflint who revels In squeeslng his tenants. The other a ragged tatterdemalion, barefooted dispenser of the news with a pen- chant for shooting crsps. Some slang shooter slso. Teaches old guy the dice game. Act ends with the old boy giving news Isd a re- ceipt for rent In full, the latter and his mother being one of the renters. Story o'erdrawn but has heart appeal. The person doing the newsboy looked as though "he" were a woman. Marshall P. Wilder, playing a full week, got a good gangway with the Vltagraph pic- ture In which he "posed" the central char- acter. WIlder'H routlno of lokes about the same as other years. The Ellis Nowlan Troupo filled the stage. Handicapped by lack of room upstairs. Acrobatic pleased while the prop stage horse was a comedy scream. Lee and Noble opened the second part. Former Dorothy and Verdi art. About only change Is name. Percy Waram and Co., seen hereabouts several times. Skit moves along In an excellent comedy groove. Farcical, of the boisterous, robust type that hits 'em hard In the pop circuits. Rene Santos wan next to closing. She did nicely. No denying the voice. Sings naturally, easily snd her range Is not forced. She has a pleasant manner. Aerial La Vails (Nsw Acts) closed. UNION SQUARE. They sre turning them sway. But s short time ago the Union Squsre with Ite big time policy was playing to empty benches. Pop vaudeville and the pictures are turning the trick, aided bv strenuous management and an electrical ballyhoo outside. The Hants In the house have been decorated with globes repre- senting flowers, and all the curtained hangings around the boxes have been removed. This Is one of the best things the Square ever did, as those former affair* were an abomination. Girl ushers have replaced those sleepy looking bo vs. The bill opened with a two reeler. "T^ove and Base Ball" (Film Reviews), which was fol- lowed by a Neuter comedv. After the Dorothy Hunter-Jack McEnnes (New Acts) dancing came a lecture on "Life In .Toilet Prison," with still picture accompaniment. Twelve minutes. Talk dry but pood ptufT for a quiet Sunday. Pictures could have been plainer. Sawyer-Tnnnor (\'ew Acts) preceded an- other comedv picture. "No Show for the Chauffeur," hsdlv concplved snd overdrawn. The Oliver White no. offered n dramatic sketch that piled up several "surprise" situations. Act held blR Intercut until the clo'-e. when It lost Its sped. Three men speak their lines 'very well snd not a word was lost. Bennett ami Hawlcy are using the old Mat- fhews-Ashlev Ch Inn town set In "one." Very little deviation from the old turn. "The Law and the Man" (New Acts) and a picture "repeater" were next. Fred B. Hall (New Acts) was lust ahead of the closing turn. "In StagHnnd," a noisy art with little talent.
