A well balanced bill of the best in vaudeville is performing to crowded houses at Polls theater this week. The four Mortons, a family of clever danc- CTS, singers and fun-makers are the top notchers on the bill, and easily carry off first honors.

Grand Opera House.

"In Posterland," the new spectacular musical extravaganza in which the Royal Lilliputians will appear at the Grand opera house Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next week and at the Wednesday matinee is composed of a doze nbits of humanity who, although they appear childish in stature, are miniature men and women of wisdom, experience and withal artists of more than ordinary ability in histrionic art. They are assisted by giants and ordi- nary sized people, thus displaying the two extremes and the happy medium. The play opens in Chinatown at night" in San Francisco, and the "Ah Sids" and other heather Chinee as depicted by the Lilliputians is Imaginable, al- though farcial in the extreme. From there they wander into "Posterland" giving the impersonat tions of various characters made famous by the press and posters, such as "The Gold Dust Twins" "The Omegan oil Boy" Billy Bounce" and many others. and they are transposed into 'Fairyiand' as the last act. There is beautiful scenery, also light and color effects. The won derful mechanical and effervescent transformation in the last act is mar velous.

 Granted an Incrsase-City Court News.
 The first point in the famous Wake man kidnapping case was scored in the hearing this week for Mrs. Dora A. Porter by her attorney, Charles C. Spreyer. Judge Thayer of the superior court sitting in chambers, heard the ap- plication of Clarence B. Wakeman for writ of habeas corpus, upon the granting of which Wakeman would re- gain the custody of his young daughter who was taken from his possession by Mrs. Porter, formerly Mrs. Wakeman. MT. Wakeman tried to prove that the child is held by Mrs. Porter under ille- gal restraint. Attorney Spreyer ob- jected to questions regarding the well fare of the child and its bringing up, the objections being based upon the ground that the court could not go into the question of the permanent custody of the child because there had been a writ, dated September 10, served upon Wakeman, this writ being returnable before the superior court, and in which the same question is asked to be decid- ed as that brought up in the habeas cor pus writ.
 Judge Thayer secured from the clerk the writ dated September 10. The court then consulted with Judge Sheldon, who represents Wakeman, and Attorney Spreyer, who appears for Mrs. Porter The court stated that no attempt would be made to render a finding on the ha- beas corpus writ under the present con- ditions. Judge Sheldon's case was liter ally thrown out of court, Attorney Spreyer making a clean sweep at the very outset of the case

ENTERTAINMENTS.
HyperfOn Phsnter.

The central figure in the comedy
 'Hoch, the Consul which Louis Mann
 is presenting this season and which
 will be seen at the Hyperion tonight
 and tomorrow night and at the bargain
 matinee Saturday, prices 25c and 50c, is
 a transcript from real life. It is on
 record at the state department at
 Washington that a gentleman almost
 identically like the "Hoch'' which MT.
 Mann will impersonate, contrived to
 have himself appointed consul to cer-
 tain Austrian city and then attempted the astonishingly diplomatic career pie
 tured in 'HOch, the Consul" In his
 excessive but humorous zeal he carried
 matters to a point that threatened seri- ous international complications, and his conduct finally led to his recall. The entire episode was so ridivulOus and so ! characteristic of some of the features of our diplomatic service that the de- tails were gently buried ill the arch ives of the state department. American travellers who have had occasion to con- fer with this particular consular repre- sentative who made his headquarters in
 the ''Spead Engle" cafe will especially appreciate the ludicrous situations in this famous Italian cafe. Incidentally the play deals with the ''new diploma cy" of the United States government, and satirizes the doctrine of 'benevo- lent assimilation"
 The production is the most extensive that MT. Mann has ever made, and his company. including forty players, is composed of extremely clever people,
 who aid MT Mann very largely in bringing out all the laughable situations with which the comedy abounds. Seats
 now selling. Night prices, sI5O $1, 75c, Soc.
 The strongly written and constructed
 play Forget Me Not" will be seen at
 the Hyperion Monday night with Miss Rose Coghlan as Stephanie de Mohri- Vart, and there is such a succession of
 brilliant repartee, wit, satire, epigram,
 and humor throughout its progress as to make it a delight among dramas of
 the society kind. Miss Coghians meth ods are most admirable, and her voice
 and stage appearance are superb. Ev-
 cry other member of the cost does faith full service, and the costumes of all the ladies are most beautiful specimens of the dressmaker's art rarely seen out
