Kelth'S New Theatre.

The entertainment at Keiths new
theater or the coming week appears to
have been arranged especially for
laughing purposes, at least as far as
the chief "headliners" are concerned:
and its varied character and evident
appeal TO the many sided taste of the
public should make ii one of the most
enjoyable of its kind.
Those two prime favorites. Joseph
Hart and Carrie DeMar, whose popu-
larity mere seems never To show even
a suspicion of waning. but who, at each
successive engagement. appear TO be
stronger magnets than ever. head the
program for the week. Having in mind
their great success, when they played
at this house earlier in the season and
the engagement was necessarily ex-
tended over a second week, an effort
was made to secure them for two
weeks at this time; but SO great was
the demand for their time and such
were their engagements made long ago
! that only one week could be had for
| Providence. and the announcement Is
| therefore made that the present en-
gagement is positively for one week
only. II Is altogether unnecessary here

al abilities OF these clever comedy stars

laughter than any similar act that has

Irish comedians. whose sketches are al
ways full OF Irish wit and humor of the
richest kind, Mr.. Days impersonation

ctuous and free from the eXaggeration

Lew III. Carroll. the monologue come

times has delighted local theater-goers

and the hilarity which ii is said he has
aroused in Boston during the week
past gives promise Of his being a de-
cidedly good thing here.
Elizabeth Murray is a soprano vocal

kind and much that is as startling as
x is remarkable. Herr Carl Krill, the
celebrated German Violincello soloist

enjoyment TO lovers of good music as
rendered on that wonderful express

were seen at this house last fall and
secured this re-engagement as the re-

The great popularity Of the two bio
graph pictures showing the arrival Of
the steamer Rhode Island with the
First Rhode Island regiment on board
and the regiment marching up Broad
way has been such during the past
week that they viii be exhibited again
during the coming week and they viii
be viewed with special interest when il
is known that these are the only mo-
tion pictures taken at that time that
will be exhibited. as although the most
favorable conditions prevailed the films
furnished from New York were defec'
tive and thus rendered the other pic
lures worthless. Among the new pic
lures TO be shown are two panoramic
views of Niagara Falls. one taken in
summer and the other in winter, and
one showing the Boston baseball play
ers with their famous trick cat and
dog.
