PARK. "McFadden s Flats." 2 and 8 p. m. EMPIRE. Burlesque, 2 and 8 p. ro. The Vinegar Bayer. It was said of Robert Louis Stevenson and his stepson. Lloyd Osbourne, when that stirring story, "The Wrecker," was issued with both names on the title page as joint authors, that Osbourne had sharpened the pencils while Stevenson had done the writing. In witnessing "The Vinegar Buyer," which the advertisements attribute to Herbert Hall WInslow with "suggestions by Ezra Kendall," one is Inclined to believe that the playwright "framed up" the plot and situations while the comedian himself .filled in the greater part of the dialogue. "The Vinegar Buyer," as presented at English's yesterday afternoon. Is commonplace, even hackneyed, in respect of tho story it tells and this is probably due to Mr. "WInslow, who has never yet produced anything strikingly original; but the lines of the play are, at times, sparkling with humor that is quite refreshing and this, one Is bound to believe. Is due to Ezra Kendall, whose original ideas and ready wit have for many years kept him in a class all by himself as a public entertainer. Although WInslow has not shown any particular brilliancy in the Invention of his plot, his characters have some semblance cf reality, and with a really clever comedian to pilot them through the three acts, the play Is not wholly uninteresting, wheie, with less competent captains at the heim, it would fall to rouse any attention. Mr. Kendall's associate players are, with two or three exceptions, equal to the play's requirements, but the entertainment is so thoroughly dependent upon Kendall himself that without him it would resemble your New Year's plum pudding with, the plums left out. Kendall dominates the performance from beginning to end, and there are no dull moments when he is on the stage. The play was seen in Indianapolis so recently that to review itMn detail would be to tell a stale story. It Isn't a story that could be made interesting lc print anyway; it must have the benefit ef Kendall's presence In the telling. The comedian is always amusing; no performer ever had a keener sense of the ridiculous than he. and none ever possessed a voice and manner more suited to the bul:iess of arousing the mirth of a theater full of people. The programme would .have you believe that he is giving you a bit of Character work that he Is one Joe Miller, Of an Indiana country town. But he is really the same Ezra Kendall that you saw as a monologist in vaudeville; the difference being that you get more of him under the present conditions. The company remains about the same as when the play was tirst seen here. Charles Bowser Is good In the character of Sandy Talbott, as is Ed Chapman in the part of the liquor seller. Alec Stripe, and the other male characters are well sustained, save that of the plotting young lawyer. William Henry Stripe. Roy Fairchild Is cast for this role and Is Just about as bad as could possibly be. Miss Marion Abbott Is the best of the women of the play in the part of the divorced wife of the town drunkard, and little Rose Norris makes a natural country girl of the kind found in the smallest villages. Miss Darling does what little she has as Mrs. Ar lington acceptably, but Miss Lottie Alter is too affected and artificial in the ingenue Character of Mildred Arlington to win much a.stinction. Mr. Kendall himself scored a b g personal success with his two large audiences. But he needs a better play tan "The Vinegar Buyer." Musical Farce nt the Park. E. W. Townsend, a New York newspaper man, once wrote a series of "Sunday Hörles" for his paper dealing with the ex aggerated types of New York's tenement district, and the comic artist of the same pape. Outcault. made a lot of ridiculous pictures in which an awe-Inspiring "yellow mc whatever a yellow kid is was the central figure. An enterprising theatrical manager recognized in the writer's yarns and the artist s pictures material for an uproarious farce-comedy, so he hired somebody with nothing elj-e to do to make a tage entertainment out of th nnunn,.,. Of Sunday supplements, dubbed the show Otm - s w Airraaufns r law ana nent it on the road. It has been on the road ever since and has been coming regularly to the Park rvery season ror nve years, it 1 now pav lng its annual visit, having opened its en gavement vextenlav with, a vt vAa' matinee before an audience that packed the mraier anu weicomeu me eminent McFad flen, that impressive lady, Mrs. Murphy th outrazemm vellnw klrl 1 1 lr a Tnrwv then are two of him and all the other M III. - k. .a t . . . uiiiiimr cnaracier mai live in me Hats A W A . . . aft..

pie dash In and out of-doorways, up and down trick stairways, around the entire stage from footlights to the "back drop," and goodness knows where else. The performers are always on the go; it's like the Red Queen and Alice in "Alice in the Looking Glass" they don't dare to stop for fear of not being able to get started again. The show makes you laugh In spite of yourself. It has plenty of bright music and good specialties. Bobby Ralston, the dwarf comedian, who is a born fun-maker, is still the principal "yellow kid." and he has an able second In Jerry Sullivan, another diminutive comedian. Arthur Whitelaw as Tim McFadden. Harry Crandall as Jacob Baumgartner. Mae Donohue as Mrs. Murphy and William Patton. May Phelps, W. H. Mack and Woodruff Alexander, in other leading parts, are all good farce-comedy people. There is a chorus of pretty girls that can both sing and dance and all of the musical numbers were given in a splendid style. The show will doubtless fill the Park at every performance. It deserves big patronage. Amusement Notes. All of the local amusement houses enJoyed excellent holiday business yesterday.
At the Grand and Empire there was not room enough to hold the crowds who wanted to be entertained with specialty performances. The Grand has been doing a landofflce business throughout the week, and will probably continue drawing big audiences for some time to come, as the attraction booked for the coming week, the Great Lafayette road show, is an especially strong one. xxx On account of the illness of the comedian, Thomas Q. Seabrooke, his understudy, Fred Mace, was given a chance last week to appear In the leading comic ' part of "A Chinese Honeymoon." the musical comedy that has been such a continuous success at the Casino. New York. Mace made a pronounced hit upon his first appearance and has been making a hit ever since. In fact, he has done so well in the role that the Shubert brothers, who are managing the production, are thinking of placing him at the head of a road company to present "A Chinese Honeymoon" out this way during the spring. xxx "Henry Kölker, once one of the favorites of the old Grand stock company in this city, has been engaged to head a stock company In Syracuse, N. Y., where he is well known and very popular. He Is at the present time playing leading parts at Her Majesty's Theater in Montreal. XXX The English actor, E. S. Willard, has scored a success in New York in his new play, "All for Her," which he gave for the first time last Friday night, and is drawing large audiences. It is said to be a very pleasing, though not an original play. One critic sums it up in the following terse fashion: "It Is another one of those plays that playwrights love to write, that actors love to act and that audiences love to see a play In which the principal character sacrifices everything dear to him in life, except the center of the stage." xxx Mr. Frohman says that the rumor that Maude Adams would appear in the forthcoming production of "The Resurrection" Is absurd. The chances are that "Miss Adams will not play this season at all. Her health is a matter of too great importance for Mr. Frohman to allow her to act again until she has fully recovered from her long Illness. t XXX Fay Templeton as Interlocutor and Nat Goodwin and Willie Collier as end men what do you think of that combination? It has been definitely arranged for these three to assume these positions in the "first part semi-circle" at the big minstrel performance to be given for the benefit of the Eagles at the New York Theater Jan. 18. That show should be worth going miles to see. xxx And now William Gillette is to follow Sothern with a production of "Hamlet" in the near future and is carefully at work on the scenic arrangements. Five magnificent scenes are Already under way, and It Is said that Gillette will Introduce details into his Shakspearlan production that will prove surprises. From playing "Sherlock Holmes to acting the role of Hamlet is a big Jump. xxx Sousa will begin a season of band con certs to-night at the Queen Hall In London. It is reported that his coming has been eagerly awaited in the British metropolis for the last month. Besides being a great popular favorite in London, he has been advertised In a way that has opened the eyes of the good English folks. On every omniDus in London the magic word. "sousa," in startllngly red letters, is to be seen. XXX It is suspected that Weber & Fields have gone over, bag and baggage, to the Inde pendent Booking Agency formed by the managers of Mrs. Fiske and MI?s Crossman, together with James K. Hackett, as tne music nan managers have decided not to put their touring affairs into the hands of the syndicate. xxx That original Englishman. Bernard Shaw, who, like Mary McLane, loves the devil, is writing a play which deals with a de scendant of Don Juan and Introduces Satan as a principal character. PERSONAL AND SOCIETY.

Patriotic Airs and Comic Specialties Prominent on Programme Club's Armenian Director. The glee club of Kentucky University made a notable conquest at the Third Chris tion Church last night. The Interest of the congregation in the club originated because the former pastor of the church. the Rev. Burris A. Jenkins, is president of the university. Consequently there was a desire to hear "his" glee club. The concert last night satisfied all that the club is Intelligently directed by John A. Shishmanian and that its members are possessed of true artistic talents. Mr. Shishmanian Is the son of an Armenian who came to this country many years ago at the age of fifteen. He adapted himself to new conditions and obtained an English education. He joined the Christian Church, married a Kentucky girl and returned to his native land and then to Turkey as a missionary of his adopted faith. Iiis son is now twenty-three and a student of the university which prepared his father for his mission work. The father now lives in Constantinople. Young Shishmanian studied under the Hungarian pianist Hegyai, who was a pupil of Lizst. Besides being the director of the glee club he is the tenor soloist of it. PERSONNEL OF CLUB. The pianist of the club is W. R. Winter, of Logansport, Ind., who is also the organist of the First Presbyterian Church at Lexington. The reader and baritone soloist is Lindsay Smith, a graduate of oratory In the New England Conservatory, a pupil of C. A. White and a member of the Boston Symphonia. Another baritone is A. K. H.

Redl and Brooks, firsts, and Belknap and Hall, seconds. The club is well organized and -balanced. Its programme last night was full of the glee club specialties. Among the medleys that "took" with the audience was the ensemble of patriotic airs "Star-spangled Banner," "Yankee Doodle." "America" and "Dixie," and its negro dialect comedy in song. "Old Noah's Ark," in which Mr. Brooks sang the solo parts. Another popular number of the programme was Mr. Shishmanlan's arrangement of "Old Kentucky Home." which he sang with a humming accompaniment by the club. A special number on the programme which was encored was "The Battle Song," a native Armenian patriotic composition, which was sung in the language by Mr. Shishmanian. Mr. Winter gave two piano numbers. He showed excellence in technique, with effective phrasing and sympathetic tempo. He rendered a Brahms scherzo and for an encore gave the "Scraf Song" of Chaminade.
