The act is a satire on the old-time melodrama. Another act of headline caliber is that of Signor Friscoe, the celebrated xylophonist, who is equally well known as a maker of phonograph records as he is in musical comedy and vaudeville. Signor Friscoe is said to be the only artist that plays four-part harmony on the xylophone. Harry Adler and Rose Dunbar, farceurs, will contribute a little skit called “A Study From Life,” with a surprise finish that is said to be original. Bessie and William Ramsdell, with Alice Deyo, will appear in a terpsichorean novelty in which they offer a series of six dances, all of which require a change of costume. Elaborate stage settings and beautiful costumes enhance the value of the act. Wllle Rolls is an acrobatic roller skater. Among the extraordinary stunts he performs is the turning of a somersault over objects eight feet above the stage. On the screen will be shown the Pathe News, the Topics of the Day and Aesop's

Clayburgh and a number of other stars of the Metropolitan and Chicago companies appeared on the program, and the Keith Boys’ Band played a number of patriotic selections. Great Interest was manifested In New York last week at the remarkable celerity with which Pathe News flashed on the screen a picture of the new Pope, Plus XI. This feat was made possible through the use of a hydroplane, which met the Mauretania far out at sea, and brought back films of the funeral services for the late Pope Benedict. Among those prominent in the picture was Cardinal Rattl, the present Pope, whose picture was thus secured by Pathe. -I- -I- -IThe Keith Boys’ Band held their first parents’ night on Friday of last week, as a part of the Americanization program wbcih the Keith Circuit has inaugurated.
