classes of theatre -goers. Some of the
numbers are very meritorious indeed,
and there is no act that can in any
sense be deemed of inferior quality.
-Four of the very best acts ever seen at
this home of continuous performances
are among the notable things that Will
well repay a visit TO the beautiful play
house.
The Four Cohans are we'll liked in
this city and this was proven by the
very warm greeting with which their
act was ushered in, but they made new
friends by the hundreds yesterday.
Their sketch, Running for Office" IS
decidedly lively and clever, and is an
almost endless chain OF funny compli-
cations that cause incessant laughter.
In fact the sketch seems TO have more
in il than there is in some three-act
farCes and every vein of humor in IL
is adequately worked. The ,speCialties
of George NJ. and Josephine Cohan were
received with marked favor. and Jerry
and Helen contributed to the fun max
ing materially. Keith's audiences have
been we'll pleased with many OF young
George Cohan's bright farces. but none
of them ever gave more pleasure than
this one. Ii is no wonder that the
quartet is termed "headliners" on Mr.
keiths circuit
Leonidas troupe OF trained dogs and
cats does marvellous work. Far and
away it is the best troupe of this kind
ever seen i'm this city. There are many
dogs but fine lockers as they are their
beauty is not the most important phase
OF the exhibition. What the dogs and
cats do it would take too long TO de-
scribe. Children will be delighted with
their clever circus acts and no one who

The Queens Fan" as presented by
the Dresden trio offers one Of the most
attractive and charming stage pictures
that is 20 be seen IN vaudeville. The
operetta and its manner OF presenta-
ton and setting are decided novelty
OF n most pleasing nature. The music
Is tuneful and mclodious and tho scenic
effects exceedingly pretty. while the
Louis XIV costumes are very beauti-
full. The stage shows an immense fan,
from which the three apparently paint

Boston, Macy 2.-Representative Du-

the legislature a bill intended to correct
the error in his original license act that
has been causing all the disturbance in
the last few days I'm connection with the
giving out OF the Boston liquor licenses

bill merely strikes out OF the original
act the words number of licenses" :"
where they refer to the total number
of 1000 allowed I'm Boston, and inserts in
their place the words licensed places"

1000 limit shall apply To places where
liquor is sold and not 10 specific GER
