THEATRICAL NOTES

The serio-cominc song I'm Dream
ing" which is sung by Nell MCNEIL
and Frank Deshon in Miss Bob
White" which comes to the Grand Op-
era House this afternoon and
night. is one Of the species topical but
IS written by Willard spenser as part
of the opera Of Miss Bob White" and
consequently does not interrupt the
story. The two millionaires are paying
an election bet after Disgusting them
selves as tramps, find it difficult to
get the whercwithal to stay their ap-
petites, and burst out into song indi-
cative of the dearth of pate de fois gras
or victuals Of the cold variety The
first strains would suggest a serious
song, the finale Of the verses are sung
ia patter time and are intensely anus
ing, and the dance that accompanies
each verse provoles laughter of the hi
larious kind at every rendition. Messrs
Mcneil and Deshon can be depended
on for laughs at any stage of the game,
and are two Of the most naturally fun
ny men in the business. They are both
very unctuous comedians. and one de-
lishtful aspect of their performance is
that il is entirely devoid Of buffoonery,
they sticking legitimately to the lines
of the author and for that reason ought
20 be the more commended.

Blanche Weaver was playing in "The
Lady of Lyons" with e. H. Sothern in
a city not far from here some time ago.
One Of her speeches ended with the
words: mo divorce can separate q
mother from her son." One evening
an absurd transposition suggested it,
self and before Miss Weaver could get
rid OF the notion. she had said in her
most loving tones: 'Ah, Claude, no di-
vorce can separate a Sothern from his
mon." The audience smiled, snick-
cred, roared in wild crescendo, and il
was some minutes before the play
could proceed.

While the holiday season is usually a
Gun period for the theatres the attend
ance at Docl1stader's new Garrick this
week has been remarkably good. The
program is varied and attractive in
Producing a number of novelties as
well as the usual number Of comedy
features. Diana, the queen Of mirror
dancers, is Of course the star feature
and il is only due her to say that the
act is by long odds the most beautiful
spectacular production Of the kind ever
offered a local audience. Those who
have seen this feature of the bill this
week viii doubtless hardly realize the
big cost of producing such an act In
the fire scene a five-ton electric motor
is used under the stage to produce the
flame effect, and the mirrors, special
scenery and electrical appliances are
not only extensive, but expensive as
Wen. The other numbers on the bill
which have attracted more than usual
interest are Hubert Duveau, the Bos-
ton lightning artist; Williams, Car
mody and Williams, comedians; Peter
Baker. the German singer and mono
iogue, and THE Great Train Robbery"
as offered by the kinetograph. Per
formances this week are for the bene-
