Prove Very Strong Cards.
THE VENDETTA AT THE GRAND.

other Hit at the Bijou.
LOCAL THEATRICAL WORLD NOTES

Farce comedy had the town by the throat
last night In all the theaters virtually but
one the skirt dance, the short-frocked SOU
brette, the topical song, the antique wheeze
and now and then modern jest showed the
drama into the background. Hardly one Of
these pieces owned up to being a farce
comedy, but the title fits them all and the
public will recognize their fiber and purpose
by that name.
At the Alvin Theater Hallen and Hart
put on their new piece, called 1.-THE Idea !"
IT is conglomerate substance calculated to
tickle the risibilities, and despite the as-
surance of the management that these
bright and popular comedians are aiming
higher than they did in Later On"
their work is about the same IN
character; fortunately also the results
are the same, namely laughter 1t is not
worth while relating the feather-weight
story, which is knocked into cooked hat
every five minutes or so by q song
or dance, or comedey 'turn."
Joseph Hart and Frederick Hallen
are really clever comedians, of originality
and surprising snap. They are happily
fitted with characters, and their songs,
dances and general comedy work made lots
of laughter. They are we'll supported. Al
Wilson made hit equal to that of the stars
in what he termed "cheap Dutch" role
of the accustomed sort. Mr. Wilson caught
the audience with his clever fooling. Miss
Bloodgood and half dozen pretty girls put
in the feminine frills Of motion and song
which every farce comedy needs Miss
DeMar's dancing was particularly vigorous
and graceful.
The whole piece with the exception of the
opening act pleased the large audience.
The amusing transformation of the Keno
gambling room, with its practical parapher-
MALTA for playing the game, into Salvation
Army hall with a service in full blast, was
the big novelty in the piece, which. we
fancy the public will want to see. 'The
Idea, while crude.

Grand Opera House.

''The Vendetta at the Opera House was
decided improvement over last years
performance. Henry Bergman scored a big
hit in the leading role, and brought much
more out OF his part than was supposed to be
in it. He was ably supported by Helen Ter
ry. Lillian Western, the musical wonder,
had some new and very clever pieces which
brought her much applause during the
Monte Carlo scene. The scenery is very
skillfully handled and displayed, there
being some startling mechanical effects.

A good-sized audience showed its approval
by very liberal applause.
Tho Academy of Music.

The building known as the Academy of
Music was crowded last night. The "Night
Owls" were there, and they are certainly a
good lot of performers this trip. There is
re ally not bad turn in the programme,
although there may not be brilliant one.
Miss Pauline Markham was just
as popular as ever. A military
parade of pretty girls was a
great feature and the performance of the
special artists was better than the ordinary.
The evenings entertainment closed with a
burlesque named "Enchantment" and 1t
was something that pleased everybody
present.

Chancellor Holland, of the Western
University, returned home yesterday from
an extended trip through Europe. He was
distressed by the charge published recently
that he did not give proper attention to
Prof. Parker, who died in Paris on August
16. The Chancellor says he was in London
when he heard of Prof. Parker's death. He
hurried at once to Paris, and after doing
every thing possible Tor the dead he
assisted in defraying the expenses of the
funeral

Bjjou Theater.

Natural Gas" burned brightly last night
at the Bijou Theater. That the play still
has an attraction for the public was clearly
evidenced by the liberal applause that
greeted Messrs. Donnelly and Girard at
their appearance on the stage. Five years
is long run for farce comedy anywhere,
but as the country for the last seasons has
almost been swimming in the lighter pro-
ductions of the stage, it is to be wondered
at that this pioneer in the farce business
still succeeds in drawing good house.
Donnelly and Girard have added some
new songs and specialties to their repertoire,
among which ''The Kelley Cure, :" cleverly
sung, made quito hit. Miss Amy Ames
has taken the part of Kitty Malone, last year
played by Miss Anna Mackberlin, and
although her Irish brogue is more character
istic. still she does not possess the
vivacity and forlorn ladylikeness which
marked the formers playing. Mr..
George P. Murphy, as the Dutch
actor Nols E. HosneH, and Mr. Sagar
Midgley, as Spa,roo Grass, both succeed in
getting good deal out of their parts, and
although pretty Miss Ida Rock is not quite
SO dashing in Daisys part as Miss May
Howard was last year, she creditably rounds
up the well-known list of characters
Brigadier General John A. Wiley and
staff from Homestead occupied box and
manifested their pleasure by joining in the
lively applause that was generously
bestowed during the whole performance.

Larry the Lord.

The new piece produced at the Duquesne
Theater last night is called "Larry the
Lord" so-called operatic comedy. 1t be-
Celestin" and "Miss Helyett." Of French
origin, presumably. it has lost in
translation anything like Gallo snap
or piquancy that it may have had. We
should hate, however, to hold any Ameri-
can guilty of originating the balderdash of
which the dialogue is largely composed.
The plot is simple enough. An English
nobleman wishes to test an Ameri-
can widows love for him; to find
his title. So he changes places with his
valet, Larry. As Lord Larry cuts great
dash; gets stuck on the aristocratic
racket, so to speak, and refuses
to retire into lowly life again when his
whilom master wishes to become himself
again. The story is an old one on the
stage, of course, and it does not take on any
very new features in this telling.
Robert E Graham, the weIl-known
comedian, plays Larry, and he makes the
creation amusing at times. It must be re-
membered of course that the play was
practically given its first performance
last night, and Mr.. Graham suffered
as much as any one from the
customary loose ends. The first thing that
will have to be done to make 'Larry"
tolerable will be to chop it gently with a
meat-ax. The boat race scene, even if it
went off smoothly is super1uity. There
is an ocean of talk that would never be
missed, and several songs which it would
be kinder to leave unsung.
The company is good one, especially as
regards the voices. Miss Mamie Cerbi, as
a stage-struck chambermaid, made the most
effectual atonement for the dreariness of
much of the piece. She played the charac-
ter with remarkable cleverness, voicing
odd scraps of dramatic lingo in
funny, wooden tone, and gesticulating with
all the mechanical awardness of an automa-
ton. Miss Homie Weldon looked as lovely
as ever aud sang nicely Miss Grace Galeeo
danced well and kicked over her head with
out apparent effort. Some of the choruses
were tuneful; but more practice is needed
before the music will have a fair
show. 1t is . case of rawness with this
play, and it would not be candid to say that
Larry the Lord" stands much chance of
success, unless it be cooked as we'll as
trimmed. This was the audiences verdict
last night.

TO the Leaf-Chronicle.
The s. w. p. Unive 'sity has or.
g4nized a new move, in that the
young gentlemen who will graduate
in 1913 have.organized themselves in
to a class. Their badge is a blue
cloth button, which is worn in tie
upper button.ho of the coat, and
with the figures 1913 in the center. 1t
would be nothing short of mere con-
lecture to say now what effect ii will
have on the University. We can
only hope its effects will be good.
Its motto is "renax Prosposite,"
which one Of our students has trans
lated as Bulldog Tenacity."
Quite number of the students
attended regularly the Y. M.
G. A. convention last week.
1t is almost a unanimous
verdict that the convention bettered
the young men. The most interest
log feature of the convention was DR..
Erdman's lectures on the bible. The
iheoiogs are especially gratified with
his explanation of that passage in the
seventh chapter of Corinthians
where Paul treats of marriage.
Our chapel worship has greatly
increased in interest since DIR. Sum
ney has been with us because of his
deep and touching prayers. Every
student feels that the Doctor has an
interest in him. A beautiful boquet
OF flowers add greatly to the interest
as they are placed each morning on
the pulpit. X

A GOOD CONCERT.
The Musical Entertainment at the Y
M. Q. A Rooms Last Night.

The concert at the Y. M. G. A
rooms last evening was an excep.
tionally good one. 1t is to be re-
GREETED that the short time in which
it was prepared did not allow it to
become more widely advertised, for
those lovers of good music who could
not attend missed rare treat.
Where al>was so good II is difficult
to bestow limited praise, but special
mention must be made of those
numbers by Professor Deaderiek
OF the s. w. p. u, Miss
Haynes of the Academy, and Messrs.
Guile OF Chattanooga and Egerton
of Boston. Miss Haynes is an elo-
cutionists of unusual power, and
quite electrified her hearers. "The
Palms" was sung by Prof. Deaderick
with splendid effect, receiving an en-
core, and Mr.. EgertOn's cultivated
and sympathetic voice was delight
to musical ears. The most notable
feature Of the evening was the whist
ling of Mr.. b. f. Guille--a revelation
to those IMMERSED in the art OF whist
ling. His tones were singularly pure
and strong and very sweet. 1t is in.
teresting 10 know that Mr.. Guile,
once when whistling with the re-
nowned lady whistler, Mrs. Shaw,
