Mcintyre and Heath's Comedians
 Pleased an Audience,

Pleased an Audience.
 If modern vaudeville played at one; Heath's comedians ought to get some money out of this season. crowded, as 1t is. with theatrical amusements.
 There is a bit or everything diverting about the entertainment provided by Mo Intyre and Heath's Company at the Montgomery Theatre last night. The au- dience was not big, but it was more than average sized audience. and It was an audiencee that applauded frequently and with enthusiasm. E There are but seven acts to the bill, a sort of continuous vaudeville perform ance, but the seven acts were good.
 The bill opens with the Lutz brothers, one of whom Is an armless wonder. He performed startling feats in shooting. : Jessie Cree, act No. 2, is handsome young woman who sings and whistles in the most fetching manner.
 Leon did some mystifying feats in flu sion, and, as a climax. produced an East Indian vanishing trick that Is marvellous. This act drags trifie due to filling in the audience. It is we'll worth waiting for, however.
 The dancing and acrobatic feats Of the Esmeralda sisters Is a dainty morsel that will be remembered They are 1.-the, graceful and pretty.
 Keit and Rusik actually did something new. They put ideas into acrobatic and equilibristic feats that were accorded extremely clever. The act Is dressed with good taste, too
 Mcintyre and Heath were "on" In black face about thirty minutes. At times their work was slow, but 1t seemed fast enough for the audience which laughed at every jike. The act is called The G. orgia Min strels," and attempts to portray the ill., luck of two stranded fninstrels. It is not reminiscent of Mcintyre and Heath, be- cause they have always met with sue cess in this section,
 As lagniapple a number of moving picture scenes were shown and the enter tainment apparently gave great satisfac- ton.
 ''Hedda Gabler'' Thursday is the next attraction.

The gravel pit question was several times near the surface. but it never appeared In den- It is understood that Alderman Roemer will have some remarks to submit at the next meeting of the Council. Roemer Made c Report. The gravel pit question threatened to appear when Alderman Roemer, as chair- man of the Streets Committee. offered a report on the resolution asking for infor- nation as to why certain of the streets of the city were not kept in good repair. He reported that the bad condition of some of the streets was due to the fact that gravel could not be obtained easily. and that the strest force was inadequate for the city's needs
 Alderman Sullivan wanted to know why the city's gravel pi. w0ul5 not furnish sumcfent gravel for the citys needs, but Aiosrtudu ffOmef, It appe8feu, oi0 not care to go into the gravel pit matter at that time.
