MIRTH, DANCE AND SONG ON TAP NEXT WEEK Nora Bayes, May Irwin and Mrs. Fisk, Some of Local Headliners. VARIETY BILLS HEAVY AFTER a week of mystery at English's and sis days of mirth and music at the Murat, light comedy, sprinkled with music, will grace the local stages next week. Thnrston played before capacity houses at nearly all of his performances, and considering tbo seating capacity of the Murat, good houses witnessed "Monte Cristo.” Vaudeville houses also attracted large crowds all week. Os course, this Is not Unusual for the variety theaters of tills city. Two favorites will be seen at English’s next week. May Irwin in "On the Hiring Line” and Mrs. Fiske in “Mis’ Nelly o' N’Orleans.” "On the Hiring Line,” it is understood, i a comedy typical of Miss Irwin's ability. Although we have no definite information regarding the play, we are of the opinion that it will he well worth while, or this star would not bo featured. The attraction opens Monday night anc will be seen at four performances, including a Saturday matinee. -I- -|- -IMrs. Fiske’s play Is one of the sea son’s most notable offerings at English’s. Steeped with moonshine, madness and make-believe, the play promises to be one of the most novel and 'enchanting that Mrs. Fiske has ever handled with her artistic hands. The character of "Mis’ Nelly'' takes shape and form under irresistible touch and in brilliancy and humor ranks foremost among her stage creations. The story is woven around the Martil Gras pranks of the headstrong southern belle, Nelly Daventry, who precipitates a scries of tantalizing complications, confusions and misunderstandings. The original New York cast will support Mrs. Fiske, including Hamilton Revelle, Eugene Borden, Gertrude Chase, Dorothy Day, Joseph Greene. Eva Benton, Ezra Walck and Clarissa Stem. Thurston's engagement closes at that theater today with a matinee and evening performance. "Ladies First,” a musical comedy with Nora Bayes, the popular comedienne as its star and owner, begins a week's stay at the Shubert-Murat theater Monday night. Miss Bayes’ play comes heralded as a New York and Chicago Success, with a six months’ run to prove it in New York and three months in Chicago. This musical offering was remade from a successful farce of other days and Harry B. Smith, librettist is responsible for the book and lyrics. A number of; persons have had a band in fashioning the music to it, including Miss Bayes, who has interpolated her own songs, all . of which are new. An interesting story is told through the production. -Florence Morrison and A! Roberts are to be : seen in the cast with Miss Bayes, and Arthur Gordon plays opposite the star. "Monte Cristo, ,Tr.,” the new Winter 1 Garden spectacle, closes its engagement at the Murat with two performances today, at 2 and S o'clock promptly. This ; is the second Winter Garden attraction J the Murat has had this season. ! I I -J- -J- -,- Alice Lloyd, eminent English comedienne and vocalist, who is now filling a limited number of weeks in American vaudeville, tops the bill next week at B. F. Keith’s, with a prograito of ex- ; elusive songs and oostume changes This ' will be Miss Llo d’s first local appearance in more than eight years. Jane Courthope and her players will offer a ; one-act play, "Our Family,” built around an incident of every day life. Martin Webb will present an original comedy, "Cousin Giuseppe.” .Tack Lavlcr, the “flying monologist,” returns with anew line of patter. Josephine Harmon and Hazel Washburn will be seen in a comedy skit entitled “We and T's.” Adelaide Bell is an European dancer, with Barney j Zeeman at the piano, and Cook and Perry ; have a novelty comedy, "The Man Ahead.” Lazier, Worth and company wll prespnt “An Evening at Home.” The j Kinogram News Weekly and Literary 1 Digest Topics are still- featured. j -i- -iTopping the Lyric's bill will be the Byron Brothers' Faxo Band, seven singing instrumentalists, who have brought to vaudeville one of its most entertaining musical divertisements. The Byron Brothers don't go in for classical nun) j hers, but we are told that they are right at home In dispensing the popular jazz and syncopated selections. They play upon various instruments, in addition to the saxophone. The Terpsichore Four is a quartet of dancers who give a lively demonstration of the art of graceful stepping. Other attractions will be Vernon and Rogers, harmony singers; Juggling DeLisle, in an amusing exhibition of dexterity; Tarle and Edwards, popular musical comedy entertainers; Bill and Irene Telaak, a duo of versatile entertainers, and Delton, Mareena and a trio~"of famous eccentric acrobatic stars, in a routine of difficult ground work and tumbling feats. .I. .]_ _|. Fred B. Leonard is offering next week at the Broadway what he claims as an , exceptional vaudeville bill, opening with j a Monday matinee. One of the featured ! headliners will be the "Juvenile Follies,” ; a company of fifteen singing sr.d dancing ; “doll babies.” Zemater and -'Smith are comedy bar acrobats, and Pauline Starr has an act full of singing and dancing. Marchs and Hunter have an act that Is full of new material, according to advance notices. The Eskes have a noveity turn to offer. “The Knight of the Road” will have an individual star in the ! person <xf George Sheldon. Other acts will be seen in addition to the film specialties. -I- -I- -IAnother high class bill Is scheduled for the Rialto next week, when song end dance are to be the predominating features. The three Moran sisters are billed as the “Queens of Music,” and. according to reports, they make up ;i triangle of beauty, grace and ability iiH music and song. Dressier and Wl!sor.-j will give a satire on the song and dance- i man and Roberts and Straw will present a mixture of fun and burlesque \ Itoder and O’Brien are listed as having one of the best singing acts in vaudeville. The photoplay feature will be George Walsh tn “Shark,” which tells the story of the sea, luck and love. Many thrilling scenes take- place, such as the exploitation of a ship at sea, a leap from it chip’s mast seventy-five feet in the alt and other feats in which such person* as Walsh can be involved. -I- -I- -ICharles Robinson’s big “Parisian Flirts” will begin Monday with a week’s engagement at the Park theater. The management of fthe theater has announced this as a first-class attraction with a big beauty chorus. Mr. Robinson is the chief fun-maker and others on the list of principals include Fay Shirley A1 Raymon, Andy Martina, Jercr Flem’ ing, Freda Lehr, Tim Benson and May Bernhardt.

LITTLE THEATER | TO GIVE THREE ONE-ACT PLAYS Comedy and Drama to Figure in Big Program to Be Given Friday, Feb. 27. The Little Theater society will present its sixth bill of the season Fri Jay night, Fob. 27. when three one-act. plays will be given, “The Festival of Bacchus,” "Fear,” and “Everybody's Husband.” “The Festival of Bacchus,” a comedy by Arthur Schnitzier, was done with much success at the Greenwich Village theater by Frank Conroy. Its story concerns the clever way in which a bus band outwits an impending elopement of his wife and Its dialogue has a trenchant and sparkling touch. BOTH COMEDY AND DRAMA. “Fear,” by Robert Sneddon, is concerned with the home-coming of the American heir of a Scotch castle no his grapple with its creepy mystery. It gravitates from n comedy beginning to a melodramatic situation, making strong appeal to the imagination. The very warm commendation given the Little theater production, of Gilbert Cannan’s fantasy, “Everybody’s Husband,” for the Woman's Franchise league some weeks ago, has persuaded its incorporation !n this bill, vrhere It will be given by the j same cast wist seen in It. Director George Somnes has undertaken an interesting experiment in the way of giving ,a bill of three one-a>'t . plays for the colored people of the city In which the players will all be of that | race and the plays Uav‘> relation to their social views and needs. Tt will be given some time in March, and will include “Granny Maumee” and “Simon, the Cryenian,” by Rldgely Torrence, and “The Dreamy’ Kid," by Eugene O’Neil. The Little Theater's March bill will be made up exclusively of plays by Tn--diana authors, the first time this has : been done except in the cnee of Max Barry's “Dad.” native work having been hitherto used In con.iunellon with (baby ether authors.

CONFESSIONS 1 OFA BRIDE . We wonder if Bob and Chrus are alive—and j i j hope for the best. The Lorlmer yacht was to wait threedays and no more. So Bob and Spence had insisted. It was the morning of the third day. From the Mexican Journal, which Dr. Travers translated, we learned that the earthquake bad partially destroyed the hacienda where all ottr In terests were centered. It was one of the most famous show places in Mexico. On account of its antiquity, as welt as its architectural value, its destruction was deplored as a national loss, and sin c It was always Included in every tourist's itinerary, the papers discussed the possi billty of restoring it immediately. Columns were printed about what had happened to the buiidlugs, but nothing at all about what had happened to the inhabitants. The yacht's motorboat was sent to the harbor with instructions to remain there all day. And all day Daddy Ixirinier and I lramped the deck and strained our eyes for the first, glimpse of our dear ones. 'What, was your plan for getting hold of • hrystobtd '! Bob said you bad a good one,” said Daddy. “1 think you know that Don Manuel fell desperately 1n love with Chrys?" I asked. “It looked that way!” “Well, of course, he couldn't Interfere openly with a woman whom Certels had married. .So I feel sure he plotted to get her in a round-about way.” ■'He’d call It diplomacy, probably.” “I think he bribed Donna Camilla to hide Chrystobel. And the old woman was easy to bribe, because she simply adores l.ertels. And she can't bear to think that any American girl should'have a sentimental or legal bold upon him. It was easier for her to help Don Man uel than it was to—to—murder Chrys'" I concluded. “Jane! You have a terrible 'imagination,” said Daddy severely. “I know you will not believe me, nevertheless, please remember that Donna Camilla reveres Certels as the leader of a great cause, and the most Important member of her own aristocratic family. But all that helps us, you see. For we know that Certeis was hit by a bullet In the recent fight, and that he found refuge in the secret chamber, when the Mexicans fled. He thought they had deserted him, but too late he prophesied the earthquake himself. He told me to flee. He couldn’t. His ankle was injured. Bob knows about. h!m. And the plan Is for Bob to find Douna Camilla and exchange prisoners with her.” “Trade Certels for Chrys?” I nodded. “Good plan—sine—sine—ls the earthquake didn’t spoil it,” said Daddy, "How spoil 1t.7” “If the roof of Certeis’ hiding place fell in -and killed him—” Daddy didn’t finish his sentence, nor did I put my own thought Into words. If anything happened to Certeis, Donna Camilla would murder every American to be found in the hacienda! "Let us hope that the earthquake helped our side, somehow,” I said, but I didn’t feel half as cheerful as I pretended to be. “There's Jordan Spence to help Bob. They’ll manage, somehow.” 4 We walked the deck In silence for another hour. I meditated upon phases of the situation which I had outlined to Daddy. Jordan Spence! By all the rules of romance, be ought to prove a real Prince Charming. He was in love with Chrys. He ought to take the cucse of dumbness from her pretty lips, and marry her, and live happily ever after! “Chrys needs a stabilizer,” thought I. “She has fallen in and out of love a lot of times. ‘ Os course, that always counts against a girl, but to me it doesn’t seem disreputable. At least, the more a glr] experiments before marriage, the less disappointment she Is liable to experi' enee after her wedding. In the old days, it was considered a disgrace for a girl to ‘turn a nmn down,’ once she was engaged to him. That’s all wrong. Second marriages are oftener happier than first. There's no reason why second engagements shouldn’t also turn out better. As for Chrys’ unfortunate hasty marriage with Certels, that can be set aside. She never was really his wife. If only they are alive—they- -.’.e—all of us—can achieve happiness —\f only—they have survived the ea: ’uiuake. 1620. * (To Be Continued.)
