VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES

Perhaps never before, at any rate since 1t became a home of vaudeville, has the Jacques been the center of such an intense and eager interest as that which yesterday filled the house to Overfiowing at both performances. There was so much curiosity as to the Girl with the Auburn Hair who had been heralded as the principal attrac- tion. and there was really so little in formation as to just what she was go- ing to present in the way of entertain ment. that expectation was almost at fever heat to see her. There were, of course. other attractions in plenty on the bill, but interest was centered mainly in her. The Girl with the Au- burn Hair is wonderfully artistic. But it's charm is hardly possible of descrip- tiOn. It is full of that elusive quality we call sentiment and quickens the memory and stirs the emotions by it's approval that every son and daughter of Adam possesses. As for the girl she is beautiful. When the lights are gradually turned on her. and she ap- pears in the choir loft amid a gorge Ously furnished cathedral scene with clustered lights on the church pillars and about the organ, and her rich voice floats out in sweetly melodious song. the effect is fascinating in the extreme and the audience feel amply repaid for their visit. There are some otber highly attractive acts, too, par ticularly so being the singing turn by pretty Louise Dresser and the quaint ly amusing comedy speciality intro duced by Fred and Dot West. Others on the bill are Jack Norworth, Burke's musical dogs, Gordon Eldrid, r Conroy and Pearl, and the electro graph. Prices are 10. 20 and 30 cents

JAMES O'NEILL.

Many persons will undoubtedly visit Polls this evening to see the sterling actor, James O'Neill, in the role of Etienne Gerard in Conan Doyle's play, ''The Adventures of Gerard" The Gerard sketches had no sooner become popular than the question of placing Captain Gerard on the boards was talked of, and Messrs Liebler &c Co at once obtained from Sir Conan the stage rights. AS to who should inter pret this fascinating, daredevil, lov- ing and lovable soldier there was nev- CT any question. Mir O'Neill was the ideal of the novelist and the dramatist from the very first, and it is said that Sir Conan and Eugene Presbrey have constructed a drama of thrilling inten- sity and unquestioned power. It is called "The Adventures of Gerard" and it shows this dashing soldier at his very best. It also gives us pa thetic picture of Napoleon as he was at the head of his impoverished army at the time when the allies were about to enter Paris, and it depicts that arch traitor and conspirator. Talleyrand, at the moment of his greatest power. Prices are 25, 30, 75 cents, $1 and $1.5O.

The play was admirably produced by the original English company. The program tells the story of the play very well. It follows: ''In our English morality, after brief prologue spoken by a messenger, the action opens with a voice from heaven, where God, look ing down upon the sinful earth, per ceives how Everyman 1yveth after his own pleasure as if ignoring the utter uncertainty of human life. He there fore calls upon Death, his mighty mes senger.' to proceed to EveTyman and summon him to undertake a pilgrim age which he in no wise may escape. and bid him bring with him without delay a sure reckoning. Death deliv CTS his message to Everyman, who at once appears upon the scene and. tries in~vain by pleas and bribes to turn the summoner away. Then, having re- ceived a hint that he should prove his friends if he can,' to see whether any of them is so hardy as to accompany him on the Journey he must take, Ev- eryman, left alone in his terror, be- thinks him of appealing to his old friend, Fellowship his comrade in many day of sport and play, to go with him. Fellowship, accosted as he passes across the stage, is full of as- surances for which he will not be thanked. But a mention of the service required soon brings change over his professions, though he is quite at Ev- eryman's service for a dinner, or murder, or anything of that sort. When he has departed. and Everyman has made a similarly futile appeal to two associates called Kynrede and Cosfn, he calls to mind one other friend whom he has loved all his life and who will surely prove true to him in his dis tf-ess. 'Goodes,' as this abstraction is called. Property would be the modern equivalent But. although, with self-confidence of capital, Goodes ayers that there is no difficulty in the world which he cannot set straight, Every mans difficulty is, unfortunately, not one this world can settle. He has, therefore, in despair, to fall back on the very last of the friends of whom he can think-his 'Good-dedes.' Good Deeds answers that she is so weak that she can barely rise from the ground, where she lies cold and bound in By eryman's sins. Yet not only will she respond to his entreaty, but she will bring with her Knowledge, her sister. lO u6IIb Mlul III IlIdL ulcuSIu rekenynge' Knowledge by whom we may suppose to be meant the discreet and learned advice which religion has at her service, declares her willingness to stand by Everyman at the judgment seat, and meanwhile, by her advice. >he" addresses himself to Conscience, who bestows on him a < precious jewel
 called penance, voyder of adversyte.
 As he begins his last journey mortal weakness comes over him; one after one of his companions-Beau Strength, Discretion. the Five Wits take their leave, Good Deeds and Knowledge announce that he has suf
 fered what we shall all suffer; that Good Deeds shall make all sure, and that the voices of angels are even now welcoming the ransomed soul. And as an angel descends to carry it heaven ward, a parsonage called Doctor epi- tomizes the lesson which the action of the play has so beautifully Illustrated.

"FVERYMAN"

The play-goers who visited POli' S
 theater last night witnessed the per-
 formance of a play which appears
 rather odd and strange to the people
 of this age. It belongs to another age
 long past. It is one of the relics of the
 fifteenth century. and Is termed a nor
 ality play and "Everyman" Is its
 name. Plays of this nature are seldom
 produced in these ages. Their popu-
 larity is not at all unlimited. They do
 not overburden the coffers Of the man.
 agers with golden shekels. Yet they
 have certain temporary popularity.
 Certain people like to see these plays
 to gain an idea of what they have been reading and studying about. They ap-
 peal to the curiosity of other people
 "Everyman' interested and impressed
 the fair sized audience which was pres-
 ent last night. It interests and im-
 presses, but it would not be safe to say
 that it delights the people or thrills
 the hearts of those witnessing 1t. It interests the spectator owing to it's
 oddity. it's strangeness; it is so differ ent from all other plays. It partakes
 so much of a strange age and strange cline. The characters, the dress, the
 attire, the investure, the accent all are so vastly different than what we are accustomed to that they demand our close attention. The strange but noble theme of the subject. the unfurling of the enacted allegory. the different char acters. all impressed us most deeply. They arouse the tender feelings Of the mind and heart, they appeal to the emo- tions, they stir up the latent feelings of sympathy and perhaps remorse. But the play does not delight the average thea ter-goer. It interests and perhaps pleases, but it does not afford much de- light. It is a moral play indeed It is strong nay. powerful sermon-per- haps too powerful. It is apt to set peo- pie thinking too much about the hid
 den things Of the great beyond The play consists of one act. There is but
 one scene and the action is continuous. It lasts for about an hour and half.
