amen t, and giving the sole power to the Reichstag to declare war will probably begin on December 2. The debate Is expected to last one day, or two at the most. Theadvanced Liberals, whose aim is to convert the German political system .Into a government responsible to Parliament, do not anticipate much from the present Reichstag, because in the days when feeling ran the highest the party leaders would not agree to urge even the simplest resolution of censure 'or inquiry. The radicals and socialists count upon making their first great campaign in the elections of 1912, unless the house is dissolved sooner.

NEW PHILLIPS. Vaudeville all week.

Vaudeville New Phillips. Swan's alligators, are the main at

traction at the New Phillips this week.

The alligator is an exceptionally vicious and obstreperous animal, and one that is hard to train. The danger element is never lacking in the Swan act. Mr. Bert Swan, himself the champion deep sea diver of England, has wrestling contests with his animals in the water, and does other acts of daring that the average mortal would shrink from the thought of. There are six other big acts at the play house this week, including Nancy Lee Rice, the dancing harpist, Nick and Lida Russel, in "The Pjofessor's substitute, and Lou Hanvey and Shines Baylies, in a high class musical and comedy number. "A Message From Mars" Gennett. It seems to be an accepted fact that a girl has a perfect right to go back on the man to whom she is engaged to be married, when she becomes convinced that he is afflicted with the sin of egotism and selfishness. That Is a part of the story In "A Message from Mars," the famous comedy ' drama which will be seen here at the Gennett Theater Matinee and night, Nov. 24. Selfish men do find women who will marry them, but it is generally believed that the girl is deceived until too late. Some lawyers say that selfishness is the cause lor more divorce suits than any other ten reasons that might be assigned. The author of "A Message from Mars" builded his play wisely, in that he made it on high lines and dealt with conditions as they really exist. '

"Servant in the House" Gennett.

George Wilson, who plays the Bishop of Lancashire in "The Servant in the House, developed his wonderful talent for character acting in the famous old Boston Stock. He was intimately acquainted with John Stetson, the millionaire owner of the old Boston Globe theater. "Stetson," says Wilson, "was nearly always besieged by some of his wife's relatives in search of a position. He appointed one of them as ticket receiver in the upper gallery. One night an .East Boston tough tried to force his way in without paying. The new man attempted to stop him and was promptly thrown down the steps. The victim limped into the lobby and reported the affair to Stetson. "What's become of the man , who threw you down the steps?" queried the manager. "He's In the gallery

Xuarn," was the answer. "Do you mean

to say that you have let him go in without paying, and coolly come to tell me about it," yelled Stetson. "What could I do," expostulated the

'Old Sir Peter' too, is surely a queer but humorous type of. fanatic villainy. While 'Boltzman' the German porter in the railroad station of act first provides a type of unusual interest from a theatrical standpoint, inasmuch, as the actor who plays him, must speak the lines in pure German and with a bluster that Is most amusing. A performance of the play in this city is set for November 28, matinee and night at the Gennett theater.

Hoyt's "A Bunch of Keys." Gennett. Mr. Chas. Hoyt has ever yielded a keen but kindly pen in satirizing the fads of everyday life, but in none of them has he been happier than in the satire of hotel life, in this comedy from the entrance of the harum scarum Teddy to the final curtain, he

displays his keen wit and plays on the

many eccentricities seen in the daily hotel life. t The company presenting the most successful comedy, is one of the best that has even been seen in it and the management promises the engagement to be the laughing event of the season at Gennett theater soon.
