VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.
 Everyone that has seen this weeks show at the Jacques has pronounceu II one of the greatest laughing shows or the season. 1t is not alone the head- line act, presented by Watson, Hutch ings and Edwards under the title or ssThe Vaudeville Exchange, that gets the laugh, but these come ill plentiful extravagance while Ward and Curran offer ssThe Terrible Judge" and again while Charles Kenna sings his famous parodies and tells his side-splitting Jokes There is. fun, too, in the amusing musical act presented by the three Lelliotts, and Al and Mamie An dersOn have some very funny things to keep the cachinnatiOn going. Even the Peana brothers i'll their gymnasf- um scene make fun, while the vita graph has some comedy views in addi- ton to the wonderful journey to Luna. Fred Zobedie supplies the novelty, which furnishes a respite from the in- cessant laughter, but keeps the audi ences wondering at his marvellous skill in hand balancing. Altogether it is a show to make an audience wonder how Manager Po1i can offer it for the prices charged at the Jacques, which are 10 20 and 30 cents; afternoons 10 and 20 cents, ladies 10.
 FLAMES BOYS IN MISSOURI"
 An entirely new play written around several of Americas most noted char acters will be presented at Polls Fri day and Saturday. with Saturday mat inee. under the title of sThe James Bows in Missouri" Dramatically and scenically it is said to be a thorough surprise, and throughout the captivat- ing romance of the love story incident al to the play the author has provided numerous startling happenings that outdo the most modern of our current melodramas There are no unclean characters, nothing suggestive of inn morality The play was built with no ignoble end in view and contains not the least taint of sensuality, which so often proves successful in the ad- vertising of modern plays One of the most thrilling effects is the Blue Cut train robbery, which is presented with a heavy scenic setting new 1n construction. A very large company is necessary for the proper interpre- tation of the many parts, and splendid support has been secured for George Klinat and Alma Hearn, who are en- trusted with leading roles. Prices are popular.
