Clark's Comedians. Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday of this week Clark's comedians will appear at the Gannett, matinee and night. A Couucrsville press notice says: The opening of dark's Comedians at the Andre opera bouse last night before a large audience, was the means of introducing a marvelous exhibition of mind reading and memory training. Mr. Richard Hly is wonderful. Tom Mack in a monologue kept his audience in an uproar, Lillian Reynolds rendered with good voice up-to-date songs. Willard & Italia, female impersonates, went well, Harry Iike, magician and ventriloquist, Frank Haines, comedian, talking pictures completed one of the best performances ever seen in Connersville.

conn s 10 ihe C'.'fin-,1' t ;;t'( T!iur-.!a gives us the sweetest and mo-i livable heroine that we have had for many seasons. There is somvtliir.g wholesome and life-like about her that we realize we have met her counter, part in some of our old Sou! hern families. The kind of girl to waom one in.-.tinotivc-ly implies the title of lady from infancy.

"The Sweetest Girl in Dixie." There are no people in the world who have been so universally made the theme of story and song, as the people of "Dixie Land" the steady march of commercialism is fast driving romance from us, but the Soufh will be slow to yield to the invader, for it is the home of chivalry, the home of fair women and brave men, the place where the sun shines brightest, the moonlight is clearest, where the women speak softest and the men love strongest, and fight quickest, that's "Dixie Land." "The Sweetest Girl in Dixie" ..iiich

Vaudeville at the Phillips. This week's bill at tile New PhiPips will be an unusually full one. an extra act having been provided by the management. For a headline act Kdwin 11. and Knthrvn Deagou are ottered in an up-to-dale laugh compelling comedy entitled "The Dutch Girl and the Cheap Skate." This act, it is believed will be fully in keeping with the head line act. "Beggars," offered recently and "The Circus Rider," presented last week, both of which have proven very pleasing. In addition to this there will be the following: Overture by Miss Eva Hazeltine. assisted by the Phillips Theatre orchestra; Pert Gcyer. chair balancer; Williams and Lynn comedians; illustrated song, "Where the River Shannon Flows," Imperial Musical Trio, instrumentalists, said to be the very best making tho vaudeville circuits; Miss CJrace Deagon, a charming and clever soubrette, whose act is reported to be up-to-date in ev-

very particular and the cameragraph showing "Cupid's Pranks." Saturday there will be the usual double performance and on Wednesday a souvenir matinee for the ladies For the time being the amateur feature has been withdrawn. Anyhow the bill is too full for the coming week to permit of the addition of any extra numbers.
