Grand-Vaudevillc.

That the bill offered yesterday at the
Grand Opera House is not fully up to the
standard Managers Burke and Chase have
set for themselves is undoubtedly not so
much the fault of those directors as of the
people employed. Nearly every name that
appeared on the programme belonged to a
theatrical celebrity-some man or woman
who has been reputed to do good work.
Still the fact remains that more than half
of the entertainment offered is really bad,
while only quarter of it deserves uniim-
tied praise.
The best part of this quarter is Mason
Mitchell, the actor soldier, whose detail
ing of the history made by Roosevelt 8
Rough Riders is worthy of being remem-
bered-or would be were it not that few
other raconteurs could tell it with the
spirit he does. The Illustrations that ac-
company the talk are passabIy good.
Patrice also offers a turn that is enjoyable
in a way, though the stars leading man is
SO poor and the star herself SO limited in
her talents that it does not approach the
sketch contributed last week by Lillian
Burkhart. Without having lost his coarse
ness, George Monroe is still absurd1y
funny and elicits almost constant laugh
ter, while Dorothy Drew strives hard to
be dafntily demure without much effect,
and Harding and All Sid form the other
quarter mentioned. Mile. Olive wears a
charming gown and a panied expression
through her Juggling act without achieve
ing great results, Frank Whitman tortures

Charles R. Sweet, as the Musical Burg
lar has lot of new jokes, which he re-
lates in the abbreviated but captivating
fashion of old. Mr.. Sweet thoroughly un-
derstands that brevity is the soul of wit,
but he never cuts his jests so short as to
miss the point. Helene Mora sings several
new songs, but more enthusiasm was mani
tested over her rendering of the Star
Spangled Banner than anything else in
the whole course of the entertainment. The
crowd cheered. Mcintyre and Heath have
a new sketch. entitled Way Down South, -
in which they are joined by Frank How
ard, who proves himself a most capable
funmaker There is some good music in
this piece, but as awhole it is rather crude,
and not by any means as good as the rem
dering deserves. A. d. Robbins. trick
bicycle rider, does almost everything on
a wheel, except to cook and eat an omlet
or play the mandolin. His work is decided
ly the best of its kind that has been seen
here this season. The other sketches of
fered are of a port sort, and might be cut
considerably without spelling the pleas
ure of the audience
One of the features of the evening was
not on the programme. Col. Ed. Hay. in
behalf of the Washington Lodge of Elks,
presented Manager Hyde with set Of
handsomely framed resolutions, Mr.. Sweet
with certificate of life membership in
the order, and Miss Mora with an i'm
mense basket of roses.

CURRENT EVENTS
IN GEORGETOWN
MEETING TO BE HELD TONIGHT
Formation of n Citizens As>ocia-
tion-Increase in Scarlet Fever
and Diphtheria Cases.

The preliminary meeting called last Fri
day by some of Georgetown's leading citi-
zens and business men for the purpose of
taking steps looking TO the permanent or
ganization OF an association 10 actively and
aggressively promote the interests of that
section will be held tonight at the office of
tine First Cooperative Building Asocia-
ton, at 1925 Thirty-second Street. The
meeting has been called for 7:30 O'Clock.
No personal notices have been issued in
the shape of postal cards or circulars ad-
dressed TO each Individual as it vas
thought that the publicity given to the
call in the newspapers would be sufficient.
From every indication the meeting will
be largely attended despite the inclement
weather. Secretary Mexican, Of the
Washington Business Mems Association,
together with number of directors of
that organization will be present unless
some unforeseen contingency arises.
Physicians report slight increase in the
number of cases of scarlet fever and diph-
liberia. However the increase is not large
enough to cause alarm. 1t seems to be
the general opinion that the open weather
of the past few weeks is responsible for
the increase but no further increase is
anticipated. The typhoid fever has entire
ly died out, md there remains only the
grip to be feared. The number of cases OF
this malady continues somewhat large and
it is probably that as long as sudden and
decided changes take place in the atmos-
pheric conditions there will still continue
to be more or less of the disease The ply
sicians say that the greater part of the
grip is due to the malarial conditions ow-
ing to the great humidity of the atmos-
phere and the condition of the streets The
Street Cleaning Department for the past
month or two has been unable, on account
OF the frequent rains and snow, to keep
the streets in frst-class condition The
dirt and filth which thus aceumulates can
not do otherwise than poison the atmos-
phere and this poison in the vicinity of a
river invariably produces malaria, which.
together with cold, results in the grip.
Miss Rule, superintendent of the Colored
Girls Reform School. entertained party
of young friends last night at the school
on the Conduit Road. The inmates of the
school furnished an entertainment for the
visitors consisting Of singing and dancing.
After the entertainment the visitors were
given the use of the floor and dancing was

Acndemy-"Looking for Trouble.v

Shortly after Joe OFT and his company
commenced their production of Looking
for Trouble" last night at the Academy
OF Music the audience began laughing and
did not stop until the final curtain had
fallen. 1t laughed from the middle of the
first act until the end of the performance
and then went home and laughed again
There was really great deal to enjoy in
some parts of the piece-particulariy in
the first portion-and the opportunities af-
forded were religiously observed.
Joe OFT is the main searcher for trouble
and he finds it by the bushel. His dane
ing is very good and his quaint actions
provoke more mirth than most people give
vent to in a lifetime. The speciaIties in
troduced in the piece are all good and
were well received. The Fansons do
clever turn in the first act that brought
them more applause than was accorded
anyone else in the cast except the star
himself, while the musical Interpolation
OF Montague and West is also of the high
est order. Burt Jordan made hit with
his dancing and John McVeigh, Abbott Da-
wilson, Louise Montrose, and Frances Ger
ard also try hard to please with more or
less success.

AT THE THEATRES.
Iafayette-"A Dog in the Mango

Iafayette-.A Dog i'm the haRger."
There is an old-time nursery jungle
which relates in two lines the true story
of the original selfish canine and his ex-
perience in the fodder box of a mild-man-
nered and timid bovine. Not only did
Charles Hoyt devise the name to be used
in his latest production from this couplet,
but to a certain extent he emulated the
example of the arrogant brute in question.
Having at his command a quartette of diff
ferent methods in which to evolve his new
play. "A Dog in the Manger,' he seem
ingly determined that if he could not make
his effort at once a melodrama, comedy,
q satfrical farce. and vaudeville show he
would at least use so much of each mate
rial that no one else might ever profit by
what he had passed by. AS result the
piece presented last night at the Lafay
ette Square Opera House was as complete
a flrst-night failure as Washington has
ever seen. There was not a single round
OF applause won during the entire evening,
the most tireless work of the company
failed to elicit curtain call, and finally
a large portion of the audience got up and
went out before the play was finished
These brutal facts would seem to utter
~ condemn The offering were it not for the
fact that Mr.. Hoyt has an agreeable habit
of completely changing his presentations
after their premieres are over and so not
only surprising those who have criticised
them but providing for return dates at the
earliest possible time. 1t kay be said,
however that If the versatile author ex-
poets TO make success from his present
venture he will have to eliminate at least
ihrae-fourths Of his matter before re-be-
ginning work. Theatergoers can never be
expected TO decide whether it is intended
that they shall laugh or cry SO long as
the writer does not know himself. and "A
Dog in the Manger' is the most lamenta-
BILE case on record of piece being neith-
er soup, meat, or nuts.
Besides being rather mixed as to his
intentions in constructing the effort Mr.
Hoyt has done almost nothing worthy oi
mention in his production. Even the name:
OF the characters do not seem laughablt
until they have been distorted in pro-
nounciation. The incidents brought out o
the plot are of the clapsticiS and seltzer.
bottle variety, while a total lack of COM
piications and of bright lines further
damns the work. Altogether it can hard.
ly be considered probable that the play
will be kept on the road.
The cast is hardly notable one Few
Of its members can act, and those who
might, have no opportunity. Among thost
who try are Joseph II. Coyne, c. ]. Bur
bridge, William Devere, George Fl. Leslie
Charles Garfield, George A. Beane, jr.

A special meeting of the Debating So
ciety Of the Georgetown University was
held last night TO consider a proposition
from the Columbian University looking to
the renewal OF debates between those col
leges. There has been considerable oppo-
sition on the part of Georgetown to de-
bate with the Columbian since the last
joint debate over four years ago. when the
latter college claimed an unfair decision
had been rendered against them.

NatiOnaI-"By the Sad Sea Waves
There are lunatics, songs, instrumental
music, marches by Delighted women, elab-
crate scenery, up-to-date costuming and
a little of everything theatrical in the
ragtime opera, by the Sad Sea Waves, ;"
which served to reintroduce Matthews and
Bulger TO the Washington public last even
ing at The National. Just why the mix
is called an opera, or why it bears the
prefix 'ragtine" does not appear, but the
piece certainly pleases if one may Judge
by the reception rendered it at the hands
of good-natured and good sized audience
The new comedy duo in many respects
resembles that composed of those old-time
fayorites, Evans and Hoey, though not
their equals in several repects. Matthews
and Bulger are funny, however, some of
their sketch bits being very bright indeed
As an appropriate background, large al
lotment of feminine support is used con-
tinuously, said allotment being shape3y,
well endowed vocally, but physically I'M
lovely above the collar line. Yet the
girls can sing. several possessing re-
markably good voices which they use with
good effect.
First and foremost in the cast is our
own Josie De Witt, who surprised her ar
Gent local admirers Dy appearing III neSu-
ings. To her excellent violin playing, Miss
De Witt had added other ability. her spe-
cialty in the last act being easily the best
offered. Nellie Hawthorn sings WELL her
own song, The Willow Pattern Plate" be-
ing her best. Rose Melville. who has
done everything from Camille to the
lowest of low comedy. contributes pleas
ant study in green, her portrayal being a
little overdone, if anything. Others of the
organization who prove good are Will
West and Ned Wayburn, the ragtime pi-
anist.
All the persons mentioned and several
who escaped. are supposed to be inmates
/ of sanitarium for the mentally weak and
a great intellect is not required to imagine
| the plot resulting. The play merely af-
! fords a string for the display of lot of
! pleasing specialties. To lovers of heavy
melodrama. the romantic or the Legitimate
| there is little in store in by the Sad Sea
Waves" For the humorousIy inclined
there is an evening of enjoyment. The
scenery is well painted and the light ef-
! fects excellent.
