be very catholic in their tastes. Any form
of observation-disclosures, farce, musical
comedy or vaudeville-they will patronize

admit what is good and to forgive what is

is done amisS An English audience en-
tiers the theater in London with an open
mind, but with feelings and sympathies

satisfied: not prepared to accept fragmen-

which is bad as whole for the sake of
inspiration on the part of author and ar

of the fitness of things, dramatically,

The sense of humOr is possibly more subtle

deeds that is based on a family fued in the

grows out of an attempt of a young Ken

time marry a cousin who had inherited a
wealthy estate. He is the leader of a
counterfeiting band and mountain outlaws,
and sets some devilish plots afoOt TO gain
his chief point. There are six scenes in the
play. Chief among them is one of the in
terror of Mammoth cave, where the outlaws
have their hiding place. Another shows

shotgun wedding at an old mill, when
the heiress Is carried over a waterwheel

ture, society, cannot be considered, insid-
ious as they are, the greatest enemies of the
young man who would do things in this
world. There is a foe far more subtle, be-
cause apparently innocuouS, far more effec-

rather helpful than offensive. This foes
name is PaTlor Tricks" This dreadful in
cubus is defined the power ability to
perform sundry little acts, which may be
in the nature of sleight-of-hand, comic, or
dramatic recitation, droll stories, limitations,
pantomimes, music, or improvisation. The
knack for illustrating menu cards, arrang-
ing cOtillion figures, or posing in charades
are sometimes included in the definition of
Parlor Tricks. For the warning of the
young man the descent of the parlor trick

Notes and Comment.

The sense of humor Of Marie Cahiil, who
comes to English's this week in Nancy
Brown" was aptly shown in Indianapolis
several seasons ago when she played here
at English's with Raymond Hitchcock in
Three Little Lambs" Although this little
musical comedy was not much of a success
in the majority of the other cities, it APP
pealed TO Indianapolis theater-goers and
many of the regulars are talking yet of
the many delightful features of that per-
Torrance. The burlesque of Mrs. F'iske in
Becky Sharpe" given by Marie Cahil,
was one of the most delicious bits of satire
ever seen on a local stage. Washington
was another city that enjoyed Three Little
Lambs and large audiences turned out In
the Nations capital TO see the show. 1t
happened that several of the young women
of the company were great favOrttes in
Washington and on the first night of the
gagernent there, flowers were passed over
the footlights at an astonishing rate. Miss
Cahill, on that occasion, received much
laughter and applause, but no flowers
Finally, after a pretty chorus girl had re-
ceived an immense bouquet OF roses, the
coincidence of the company remarked.

this thing, anyhow" She gathered UP a
vivid green grass rug, of the common Stage
variety, tied a pink ribbon about it, and
upon receiving an encore, advanced to the
