Ro- ganny's Billposters have improved on their old acrobatic "Lunatic Bakers." Homer Mason and Mar- guerite Keeler were seen to advan- tage in "Marriage." Eddie Dowllng has a new line of material that pleased, as did Vardon and Perry. Lillian Fitzgerald is in need of new material; her present vehicle just carries her over. The rest of the bill included Rudinoff. in his smoke etchings; Arco Bros.. Nana and Alexis, and Pederson Bros. The City Council exonerated City Councilor Wilson Carroll tonight from the charge of accepting money to put through an ordinance for ths Boulevard Theatre Co. Edward J. Wiley, the promoter, who made ths charges, refused to appear, as did Albert Buck, who was associated with Wiley in selling stock in the theatre. The finding is not satis- factory, and it is the general im- pression that the Bar Association and the gra^d jury may take up the case. DULUTH BALTIMORE AUDITORIUM.—Mclntyre and Heath in "Red Pepper." FORDS—Ethel Barrymore In "Declasse." LYCEUM.—"The Bat." • PALACE.—"London Belles," bur- lesque.

Maryland.(Keith's) By comparison this week's bill is ^^v.-S-rrr-<rt«rfuard'2fet in this house since opposition began. Of course Eddie Leoaard is the same old pop- ular favorite, but he alone is not sufficient to carry the show, and divided applause honors with Miss Patrlcola. LaVler In his monolog atop of a trapeze, Niblo in her aquatic feats, and Frederick Bur- ton's impersonation of Abraham Lincoln were the other acts. The bill Included the Sylvester Family. Laura and Billy Dreyer. Kenny and Hollis. and Hobson and Beattv. Academy (Shubert) The first "all-star hill" advertised by this house proved to be one of the best all around variety shows here since the opening. "Sallv.
