the best OF this class of attractions.
The program includes two burlettas
and seven vaudeville acts, and, as an ex-
ira feature, the management has en-
gagged Joseph Carroll, the champion
wrestler, who challenges all comers, and
whose manager will give s25 to any man
whom he does not throw within fifteen
minutes.
Among the vaudeville acts with this
company are the following: Lorine
Crime. of illustrated song fame; Barry
and Wolford, sketch team: Enid Dell,
comedienne; Smith and Welch, Irish
comedians; Mile. Solora, the Partisan
model, and Neveda Harrington. The two
burlesques are entitled The Lady Mil
lionaires" and "A Day With King Po
Po."
An added feature Of the programme OF
the Metropolitan Burlesquers will be
the great Tascott, one of the best sing
ers of coon songs on the stage. Tas-
colt played an engagement at the En-
pire last season and was such q success
that he was re-engaged for another
week.

"Florodora s" Continued Popularity.

After two years of unprecedented pop
ularity in this country. there is at pres
ent almost as much interest in "Floro-
dora" as when the play was first launch
ed on Broadway.
Instances where plays of any class.
but more especially musical comedies,
will weather changes In public taste,
and find their welcome as strong the
second year as the first are very rare.
and yet "Florodora' seems to be ono
of the attractions of which this much
can be said. AT one time last season
there were as many as four companies
presenting it, and while 1t was the i'm
preston that these organizations had
covered such wide stretch OF terri
tory it would partially appease the craze
to see this musical comedy, Fisher &
Ryley received so many applications
during the summer that they have found
1t necessary to send out three compa-
nies this season. The New York
company. which will appear at the Co.
lumbia next week, includes Grace Dud-
ley, W. P. Carleton. Helen Redmond.
R. E. Graham. Edna Hunter. Donald
Brine, Lily Collins, Philip II. Ryley,
Mace Bonville, and others.

position OF superintendent OF Chase's

his policy of polite vaudeville at the
old Grand, has resigned and will in the

he was unusually popular, the result OF
his efforts to make their visits to the
local home of vaudeville enjoyable. He
was one Of Manager Chase's most valued
employees and his place will not be
