business and her lines, then I am no friend of you. Let us put the test. Take her on first appearance. Under . title of “Everybody Welcome,” one of those "knocking at the door” things, an Ellis Island assault. Boy wanted to see Indians. Sobbing (?) mama, sobbing child equals entrance ticket punched. You say type tells you nothing. That is my failure. See a woman who knows the trick of the trade. This revue was not newly born. Chicago, New York, and other cities know its success. Daphne Pollard forgets that. She is working just as hard to make good at the Murat as she did when she started. She reaped a fortune in laughs last night with “the Greenwich Village Follies.” Fun Hits V You You say that ‘there are laughs by others who spell their name differently than Pollard. Yes. Laughs are furnished by Tom Howard, Joe Lyons, Miss Pollard, the Two Briants in “The Moving Man’s Dream,” which is a classic; and repeat these names. I have never been wild over Wells and West In their sailor stuff. One lad, Buster West, holds the act up.

West has his own way. Result— Stops the show. When you buy this brand of "Follies” you expect certain type of coloring from the pen of John Murray Anderson. You have that dash of something different. Not so much in scenery as in the general and suddenly blending of the flesh, scenery, music and movement. A dash of symphonic poetry—“ The Garden of Kama.” I know this is all right because an elderly woman sitting near me remarked that this is "perfect.” She had remained “frigid” until art came on the stage. Any one who writes poetry or who paints nature wouH go wild over this. I do more terrible things that that. I tell you about the shows. And Then This A revue is like a circus. You can see certain things. Others you do not. Am not wild over the singing voices. The chorus dancing is not a concert. Many costumes and less. Nothing shocking, but a nice regard to the 105th amendment—" Thou shall have at least a hat, a cane and an overcoat.” , Show moves with that satisfaction that you know you have not been created at the box office.

named but a few of the many in the cast. There are real reasons for the success of this revue. At the Murat tonight, Saturday matinee and night, PUT PALACE ON CALLING LIST A mild suggestion: Put the Palace on your calling list today. There are two reasons at least for this. They are Joe Fejer and his Hungarian orchestra, and “Revue Comique,” which is the nearest article to Balleff’s Chauve-Souris idea of continental variety. The title of “Revue Comique” is not expressive to the degree of letting us in on the splendid fun and artistry dished out in large doses. The opening number will grab your attention because it is foreign, musical in nature, although none of us knows or cares it is all about. Then comes an Apache dance number. Then the act gets started when Madame. I presume the large woman must “> bear that title, does a burlesque which is splendid. Then some classical toe and Russian dancing. Then Madame does a scream of a low comedy burlesque on classical dancing. The finale is Russian, and mighty good Russian. Here is a novelty done in splendid style. VJorth your attention. The second big reason for going to the Palace today is to hear Joe Jejer and his assisting musicians. Here are real players of good music. Some slight compromise is made

for popular taste, but the compromise is dignified. When I was present the audience responded to this real music in no such uncertain terms that an encore was demanded and given, even after the final curtain started to come down. Fred Lewis is present with his funny book. He lands laugh after laugh. Lewis is a mighty good comedian. Maude Ellet and company opens the bill with a rope and trapeze act. Pleasing.

ROBBERY MOM GIVEN IN MURDER Police Lack Clews to Slayer of Cunningham. With the motive of robbery unquestioned, Detectives Sheridan and Gollnlsch were instructed by Inspector Jerry Kinney today to check up on all details in an effort to find some clew to the slayer or slayers who fatally crushed the skull of Ralph N. Cunningham, grain dealer, living in Advance, Ind., as he was leaving his office in the rear of 328 W. Maryland St., Wednesday night. He died four hours later at the city hospital without regaining consciousness. When George W. Humes, 1049 W.

Eighteenth St., inspector of the canal for the Indianapolis Water Company, turned over to police a brief, case, the property of Cunningham, found floating in the canal near Military Park and West St., robbery theory was definitely established. Cunningham was found at the front door of the Davis Bros, garage and storage office, by Harvey Davis, one of the owners, early Thursday. Cunningham always locked his office at 327 W. Pearl St, and left through the Davis company office. A three-foot iron pinch bar and a two-pound water key were found near his body, but detectives were not certain these were lsed to strike him. Cunningham was said to have deposited a large sum of money in a bank. A deposit slip for $394.01 was found in his office. Many persons knew Cunningham often carried a large roll of bills, detectives said.
