Hector Fuller, the newspaper man and war correspondent, has taken the position of press representative for the "Way Down East" picture now showing here. He relieves Pat Campbell, who goes to the same picture now playing Chicago. Seldom does a theatre offer as varied a schedule of education and amusement as the Shubcrl for this week. In the morning the house has religious services; in the after- noon Rudolph Ganz, in concert, and In the evening "Way Down East." The members of the Fort Scott.

Marie Gale, leading woman at the Shubert, retired from the stage last week. Her final appearance was in "Jane Clegg." Florence Ritten- house is her successor, opening this week in "The Ruined Lady." An- other new member of the Shubert company is J. Hammond Dailey. "Buzz" Bainbridge is managing di- rector of the house. . Theatregoers at the Mary Ander- son received an unprogrammed thrill .Monday night when a support of the apparatus used by the Four Lamy Brothers, aerialists, snapped, causing the entire outfit to crash to the floor and throwing Carl Lamy twenty-flve feet to the stage. As the stay broke a stage hand shouted a warning and two of the brothers, who were on trapezes, jumped to the floor. Lamy was hanging head downward with his feet locked and was unable to jump. The appar- atus fell against the drop, which probably saved Lamy serious in- Jury. The act was called off. ♦»* sTAGt *** LLERtfSQK s XMTC The world'* largest manufacturer* of the- atrical footwear We Fit Entire Companies Also Individual Orders «*I4 a «a> at 48u »t.

Scott, man- ager of tho house, is planning a new theatre more centrally located to p'ay legit attractions. Since the elimination of St. Joseph, Dubuque, Waterloo and Marshall town from American bur- lesque artists arrive in Minneapolis Monday from Kansas City and rest until the following Sunday opening here. It has been persistently rumored that Finkelstein & Ruben are in negotiations with the Shuberts and that tho former will next season offer Shubert vaudeville at the new State, which house is located near the new Orpheum Junior, under construction. Another rumor is that Loew vaudeville will be trans- ferred to another Finkelstein- Ruben house nearer the new Or- pheum 4han the Palace, where Loew vaudeville is now being pre- sented, and that the New Palace will be given over to burlesque to compete with the Gayety.

CHARLES—Sherman Slock in "Way Down East." TEMPLE.—"The Smarter Set." LYRIC—Clarence Bennett's Col- ored Carnival. - Owing to the summary closing by George Kelly of his sketch, "The Flattering Word," due to the death of his sister, Doris Dagmar, Kelly's leading woman has returned to her home to spend the remainder of the theatrical term with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Sam Pulliam. Pulliam is the advertising man of the Orpheum. The Kelly sketch had 12 weeks of bookings when it closed at the Ma jest ic, Chicago. The Orpheum is to remain closed during the summer. Ben Piazza, manager of the theatre, will spend the heated term at Albany, N. Y., visiting the parents of his wife. Piazza married but recently. There had been some gossip about the Orphoum running throughout the year but Martin Beck stated when here last week he did not deem it advisable to try to operate during the hot spell. Hyams and Mclntyre celebrated the 17th anniversary of their mar- riage while playing in this city last week with dinner at Antoine's. Their daughter, Leila Hyams, is now appearing in their sketch, "Maybloom." She is a very beauti- ful girl in the full flush of youth. Jack Edwards is doing publicity work ahead of "Way Down East," which comes into the Tulane for a fortnight, beginning April 3. Bob Sherman is presenting the drama with his stock company this week, beating them to the break, as it were. Loew's was doing business the first part of the week with every other house in town off. The differ- ence in price must have been the reason, for the Loew show did not rise above the average. Lock hart and Laddie, acrobats who talk, began it. The talk was so much stalling. These boys are clever gymnasts, with that part of their work rewarded. The patter could go out. Rose Garden was animated and stressful enough to sell her mer- chandise to the best result. El- dridge,'Barlow and Eldrldge Were In favor at the beginning, but lost something toward the end, where the act lets down. It is tho eccen- tric comedienne who gives this turn its value. Texas Comedy Four were going along neatly until they burlesqued an infirmity. After that all their effort was negligible. Ling and Long were too slow in getting start- ed to do much in the closing posi- tion. ehe Most Important Feature of Your Act Is a Good Curtain in y a good act is spoiled by a poor curtain.
