KEITH'S THEATRE.


No better vaudeville program could pos
sibiy be arranged than that which Is
offered at Keith's this week. a fact which
seemed to be thoroughly appreciated by
the exceptionally large audience which
laughed and applauded throughout the
entire evening. Novelty. laughable comedy
and some decidedly fine instrumental and
vocal music are blended with capital re-
suits. and he must be hard 10 please who
will not find plenty to amuse him at that
playhouse this week. Heading the bill
was the Rose Worthworth Equestrenne
Trio. one Of the prettlest and most novel
acts the vaudeville stage has offered for
some time. They employ two magnificent
white horses. pretty dog and a smart
little cart and they give some uncom-
monty fine bareback acrobatic riding. The
woman is as graceful and agile as can be
imagined, and one OF the men also giyes
some very fine riding while the third man
does some clever tumblng and adds a
dash OF comedy. The snap and vim which
all three put into the act makes IL de-
cidediy pleasing and an act which Is
likely to attract large crowds TO see II
