COLORED STAR WEARS EXPENSIVE CREATIONS Mamie Smith, the famous singer ot "Craxy Bines," and other popular hits, who will appear in Richmond at the Coliseum Saturday night. Is said to be one of the most gorgeously dressed stars of the musical comedy world. With the enormous royalties which Mamie receives from her phonograph recordings, and from the profits of her concert tours, the popular .young colored star is enabled to indulge her fancy in the latest creations both

from Paris and New York, and in each city in which she has appeared a gasp of astonishment has greeted her every appearance, for her gowns are described as riots of color and beauty. Each gown has been especially designed by Mme. Hammer herself for Mamie, with a view to fitting the individuality of the slr and the various songs which she sings on her program. Beside her high-powered car. which the new star skillfully drives herself, there is nothing in which Mamie Smith takes more pride and interest than her stage gowns, her favorite one being a creation of white silver trimmed with American Beauty rose, with head-dress and hugh ostrich feather fan to match. This gown Mamie has promised to wear at her concert here, as well as several other of her latest creations. The best seats are selling fast from the plat at Weisbrod Music company and as white and colored folk alike are eager to see and hear the "Queen of Blues," a capacity house la predicted for Saturday night

WASHINGTON One of the most entertaining features ever placed upon the screen is being presented at the Washington theatre, called "The Old Time Movie Show." It constitutes one of the most screamingly funny entertaramen t s ever shown to the public. The elides are . run as In the old days: No Smoking Allowed; Don't spit on the floor; Remember the Johnstown Flood, etc. Then the drama is presented featuring Mary Plckford and Owen Moore. .- The picture was made during their courtship days and the manner in which it is presented with a break in the most interesting part while a slide is thrown en the screen: "Just a minute Operator fixing machine," and the piano grinding out "Hot Time in the Old Town" brings peals of laughter. The old-fashioned piano-playing adds much to the presentation. An illustrated

song which creates an uproar of laughter and a rip-roaflng comedy

complete the show. Manager Bell is

using very good showmanship in of

fering this novelty. MURRETTE No longer will fans be able to say, even if they say it affectionately, "Chrles Ray, who acts those country boob characters." True, they will be able to see him in the type of character they have come to associate with him still, but his country boy impersonations will be varied with other characterizations which they will find equally as fascinating. In "Forty-five Minutes from Broadway" Charles Ray introduced his admirers to a different sort of character than they had previously seen him in, and the attendance results have adequately proven how much the picture was liked. In "The Old Smmln Hole," the First National attraction coming to the Murrette Sunday, he is a country boy again, and so the program of coming pictures will afford the artist a wide field of characterization and will doubtless raise many pros and cons for many people like to hear the same joke over and over again, though the majority of people prefer to have their

fight. The ensuing battle is one of Hie most thrilling episodes in a eorgeu?ly exciting photoplay, shown here at the Palace, Sunday. . MURRAY VAUDEVILLE "Better than the first hair is the way we would describe the Murray bill now playing the last half of this week. While a couple of the acts stand out as the best of the four, a variety is offered. If it wasn't for the comedian In the headliner the offering might prove somewhat dry. A more curious animal Is seldom seen . (thanks to his make-up) outside of a menagerie. The strong arm man gives many exhibitions of his strength and skill. The act of Allen and Canfield is excellent. The Miss in this offering sings "I Got a Cold in My Nose" and creates an uproar. Her partner Is a mighty fine singer. The two radiate refinement and art. Harry L. Webb, black-face eomedian seems a little lame in mirth at the start, but warms up as he goes. Every one should be grateful that his jokes have a new angle. "One Foot in the Grave" would be a good title for the sharpshooting act. While Mr. Edwards shoots genuine lead from alK angles, his partner calmly holds targets in her hands and mouth and balances the William Tell apple on her head. William Russell in "Bare Knuckles" is the film feature. MARVIN.

favorites spring artistic surprises and to follow their artistic ascendency. PALACE. Gene Pollar, who plays Tarzan in the newest screen sensation of the day, entitled "The Return of Tarzan," is six feet, three inches tall and shaped like a modern version of a Greek God. The handsome Gene was chosen to play what is perhaps the most difficult role in motion picture history, not only because of his appearance but because of his nerve and athletic prowess. He needed them all in "The Return of Tarzan." In one scene, Pollar fights single-handed against a gang of ten ruffians in an apache dive, and throws them about the room like so many

nine-pins. In another. Gene drops from a tree upon the back of an enormous lion, hungry and spoiling for
