Congo, a little more than a year' old and growing, has swelled his weight to 500 pounds.
Theaters at Tin; oKiiii:rM. There is a dandy musical show at the Orpheum. It isn't a tabloid with a foolish plot, wornout jokes and familiar songs. No, indeed. (Jus Edwards' song revue is as bright as a diamond and as fast as a speedway motor race. The tongs are new, catchy and most of them exclusive with this production. And pretty girls! A garden of roses hasn't any more beauties and they know how to sintr, too. The boys are well India ved and well trained and the whole, showmoves with such speed that the final curtain comes unexpected and one hates to rcalizo that the performance is over. The catch line of the management, "none under 16, none over IS," serms appropriate and the fresh, bright, clean-cut entertainers offer a novel nnl very pleasing program of song. From the opening chorus of "The Song Farm." with its rural lads and lassies and country setting to the final big ensemblo at the Pan-American exposition it is one rapid succession of song numbers. Too many, in fact, to keep up the excitement all the way, and the introduction of a little talk, a bright monologue or a few minutes of patter, say, about midway of the show, would please most folks and make the final big numbers better appreciated. To enumerate all the specialties worthy of it would mean to reproduce) the program. Pittle Georgie and Cuddles are featured and they deserve to be. .o does dainty Marguerite Dana, a comely and clever dancer. Pabe McP'voy introduces a comical pickaninny in a suitable song. Jack Weiner. Harry Pollard. Petty Pierce, Alice Furness and Alfred Freed all have good numbers. some elaborately mounted and dressed. The show is a pood one. It is a metropolitan production. It deserves patronage. TIIC AUDITORIUM. There is a particularly attractive picture booked for the Auditorium todav, Vivian Martin in William A. Bradvrs production of the clever comedy. "Little iMiss Brown." Mic-s Martin Is a daintv little actress and one of tho most poplar motion picture stars now before the public. Other pictures for today are "A Slory of a Glove." a Vitasraph comedy with Mr. and Mrc Sidnev Drew, and Pert Levy the world renowned cartoonist in a novel series of cartoons. Mr. Levy has appeared before the king and queen of England and other royalty and he Is ono of the most popular vaudeville entertainers In the country. Tomorrow brings the last episode of the serial picture "The New Exploits of Elaine." which many picture fans have been following for a number of j months and we will bid goodbye for a while to Pearl White. Arnold Daly and Edwin Arden who have become 11 known through this serial. "The. Dumb Wooing." an Edison comedy, and "The Estcrbrook Case." a three part Yitagraph with a very strong cast including Julia Swayne Gordon. L. I loners I.ytton. 1'harles Kent a. id Cissy Fitz-Gerald are also on tomorrow's bill. Friday one .if George Klein's pictures. "Who's Who In Society," will be the attraction. As an added attraction for today tho Chamber of Commerce will show motion pictures of the recent convention of Dixie, highway boosters, where 4."0 leading business and professional men. drawn from Ohio, Kentucky. Indiana. Tennessee. Georgia .Florida, including three governors, gathered to boost for better roads. AT TIIK COLONIAL. "Old Doc Yak" will make his initial bow to the moving picture patrons of South Bend today at the Colonial. Probably there is no other character of cartoon humor as peculiar as this goat-faced individual, made famous bv the prolific pen of Sidney Smith. He has appeared for years in the comic see tions of the metropolitan dailies but this is his first stage experience. On the same program will be seen the Chicago Tribune's animated weekly and dramatic subject. "House on E. Street." This is a thrilling melodrama and among the exciting incidents Is an auto race with one high powered machine taking a fatal plunge over a mile-hUh cliff. em Wednesday "The din of Life" will be the attraction at the Colonial. This powerful story Is in five reels, features PesMe Parriscale in the leading role and teache s a strong moral. Pvo poor girls in New York choose different paths through life. One marries an honest mechanic; the other chooses the bright lights. The contra: are lvldly pictured and the change from alight-hearted. Innocent girl to A uas-
gard, faded beauty of the under-world Is one of the greatest stage characters Miss Parriscale has ever portrayed. She will be recalled for her startling impersonation of tho wife in "Tho Devil," shown at tho Colonial recently. AT tiii: LASAIXC "The Moth ana the Flamo,", tho greatest of all the celebrated plays by the gifted dramatist, Clyde Fitch, has been produced with remarkable effect by the Famous Players Film company, and is the feature attracUon at the Lasalle today. With a surprising number of tensely dramatic situations, and a great big powerful theme that is both human and logical, the superb pictorial presentation of this famous drama is even greater In its appeal than tho original production. There is a particularly impressive dramatic note in the Feries of scenes beginning with tho tense situation of the unworthy man who owes his name to one woman and is the accepted husband of another, and ending with the climax in which the deceived girl casts off her Lothario fiance and makes him right the woman he has wronged, giving her own love to a formerlyrejected suitor who has proven himself the better man. Stewart Paird, Arthur Donaldson and Adele Hey have the leading roles. Or. Wednesday William Farnum, one of the best dramatic actors of the present day will be soen in a fivepart screen production of Hoy Norton's great story of the Alaskan gold fields, "Tho Plunderer."
