"STEVE" The advance sale of seats for Eurene O'Brien's personal appearance in Robert L. Dempster's new play, "Steve", will open Thursday, Keb. 1, at the Murray, and as the engagement for the famous? stage and screen celebrity is limited, it would not be wise to delay purchasing tickets. While personal appearances of photoplay favorites have been in vogue for some time, this is the first time that Eugene O'Brien has been seen here as the Mar of a stage success?. George M. Oatts is responsible for the return to the speaking stage of O'Brien. Robert L. Dempster is responsible for the charming romantic comedy ami Laura Hope Crews is responsible for the excellent staging of the play. Mrs. Thomas Whiffen is the chief support in the perfect cast which comprises Vivia Ogden. Helen Weir. Ann Winsion. Isabel Winlocke, Frank Herbert Homer Barton, Duncan Penwarden. F. G. Patten and others. The play will be seen at the Murray.

MURRAY VAUDEVILLE Two Highland Laddies and Five Bonny Lassies will be the feature attraction of the new bill opening tomorrow matinee at the Murray for the first-half. A blend of Scotch and Irish music, song and dance will regale audiences during, the time the "Echoes of Scotland" occupy the stage. This act. is "presented by seven former members of a famous Kiltie band, whose talents have led them to vaudeville. Screams of laughter will be generatod by "The Star Boarder," to be offered by James Silver, Helen Duval and George Kirby. A song or two will be introduced, but the fun will be 1 ased mostly on the situations and lines of the hilariously comic skit. The ventriloquiat act called "The Clubman" to be presented on the new hill is a finished piece of work of its kind. All tools of the ventriloquial art are visible in Valentine Vex's act, but they appear as only accessories to a magtiificiently staged turn. Novelty and versatility is expected to reign supreme when William Selbini and Jeanetta Grovini offer the "Follies of Vaudeville." A little of everything in the entertainment line is promised for this paid. It is said they have a distinct way of doing things and they include many different . iieins in their routine. Opening Thursday "Eccentricities" will be found a high class comedy singing and dancing act. headed by Bobby Jackson, youthful eccentric singing and dancing comedian, who often is called the boy with the educated feet." He will be assisted by three young and good looking persons, a boy and two girls, who in an at-

tractive special set will offer pongs and dances in a superior way. One girl is an accomplished pianist. The other is of the ingenue type and sings well, dances gracefully and is alluringly pretty. LoYers of song, whether of grand opera, or the popular type, will find much to their liking, it is said, in the forthcoming performance of Villani Brothers. These two young men are well trained vocalists who possess real voices and a knowledge of how to use them. They will appear singly and as a duet. : A seemingly impossible routine of feats will be accomplished by Kane, Morey and Moore in what is termed "Striking a Balance." This act consists of three men, one of whom, the smallest of the organization, balances a wooden pole on his forehead, while the other members of the trio execute a marvelous performance on the precariously poised perch.

MURRAY The Division Commander of the R. N. W. M. P. was white with rage. One of his men had dared to come back without his man. He pointed to the Division's motto "Get Your Man." The man who had failed the first time he had been sent out whined, "But I was ambushed! There were four of them. I didn't have a chance! They would have killed me!" "That was your time to die!" thundered the commander. Thus was John Ramsey dishonored,- and in the presence of the girl he loved the girl he was to marry when he had proved his worth. And now the while feather was his sign of courage! But failure, to a real man, is only a challenge to conquor. John Ramsey's tight to redeem himself and prove himself worthy of his sweetheart's faith in him is dramatically and romantically

Eva Mascagno, daughter of Stephano Mascagno of New York, selected as one of the fifteen cleverest stage children in the United States to go to the White House to appear in a revue called "Cheer Up.

worthwhile entertainment.

The story describes the adventures in love and war of a soldier, the like of which you never heard or saw. Unromantic in war and prosaic in love and an enemy to both, he nevertheless succeeds in securing the matrimonial prize where the romantic soldier of gallant exterior and enipty head, fails. Seeking assistance from the "girl" in the story, he is enabled to escape in an old coat for her father's. The subsequent adventures of this coat bring about enough trouble and good fortune to provide excitement and laughter for several plays. Mr. Devereux plays the unorthodox hero in his well known intelligent manner and Miss Graf charmingly enacts the "girl."

The famous portrayer of mother roles. Vera Gordon, will be seen in her latest photoplay, "Your Best Friend," a Warner Brothers production, at the Washington theatre, Sunday only. Miss Gordon will best be remembered for her fine characterization in "Humoresque." The name of Miss Gordon has been linked on both stage and screen with "mother" parts, and in her latest pic

ture she will not disappoint her countless admirers. For she is seen in the role of Mrs. Meyers, a widow, whose every expression denotes a very precious pearl of palship.

WASHINGTON The seat sale for the opening of the Olmi-Goodwin Players who will inaugurate an indefinite engagement of dramtic stock at the Washington theatre Monday, Jan. 29 opened Friday and Manager Gruenewald reports a big demand for seats for the opening to welcome this company to Richmond.
