VAUDEVILLE.

Of all the strange and wonderful things which have been presented to m amusement loving public ly enter. prising vaudeville managers by ia: inc most unique is that of the Magic Kettle which Josef Iarrick is offer ing as inc headline fcatur at the .Iacu,IcS this week. Nothing as vet has been created in the line of scicr- life entertainment io compare with Mir Iarri,'k'S act which has caused dnc of the biggest sensations thcatri- cal circles have known for years. Sim ply by the application of a scientific principle and without using chemicals of any description the owIcr of this plain iron kettle has performed acts which have made the savants of the country sit up and wonder Educated people have been amazed and persons of ordinary intellectuality dumb founded at the marvclS tho vessel works. The performance is so strange as to In almost uncanny and when Mir Iarrick ends his act ly setting lire to hWyc block of ice Supersiitious folk are apt to declare there is T per ''llIIblr p'irr VT HTe 5nl iflInst0lie III ihc .lr'atcr. Why such wonders cain come forth from an ordinary tea krt tlc Mr Yarrick alone can tell and he is moi saying much about if. Tho melting of a watch by pouring the contents of thc kettle over fl. and the transformation of metals into -iassy substances which may ic broken into fragments are merely practice efforts for the entertainer. The supporting features of the program are sure to I,e found most amusing.

COSSAcKS 0F RUSSIA
A MILITARY ORDER THAT IS
 WIDELY SCATTERED.
They Long Maintained Independence of the Iron Rule, But Now Are Changed People Not Such
 Soldiers as Formerly.


 Cossacks? The word is synonym for cold-blooded cruelty, brute strength. un- savory police duty. Are they so black as painted?
 Cossacks may be shortly defined as a military people inhabiting the steppes of Russia along the lower Don and about the Dneiper and in lesser numbers in eastern Russia, Caucasia, Siberia and elsewhere. Which locating would lead one to infer that Russia was pretty gen. erally inhabited by Cossacks. Their ori- gin is an uncertain matter. but their nucleus is supposed to have consisted of refugees from the ancient limits of Rus sia. forced by hostile invasion to the adoption of military organization or order. which grew into more or less free tribal existence" Their position in Russia has been q peculiar one, at least until recently they have been looked upon rather as 'allies than as subjects of the czar.'
 i To the refugees that may have form ed | the nucleus of the Cossack order were 1 added, in the course Of time. all sorts and , conditions of men: those fleeing from | religious persecution, fugitives from cruel masters, criminals. outlaws. de- serters. and also men fond of adventure i for adventures own sake. Though call ing themselves Russians. they held their independence of Russian rule Living in southern Russia, close to qlarrelsomc border people they developed more and more of martial spirit.
 This people did not submit tamely to the rule of absoluteism. their numerous reyolts obtained for them certain priv 1 ilegcs, which of late years. however, have been much curtaiIed. Russia has found them of great servic" in protect ing her frontier line, and in time of ac- tive warfare they have proved very val uablc in skirmishing operations.
 In guarding the frontier. the Cossacks in their fighting with Turcomans, Cir cassians and other hostile frontier folk had opportunity to call into play feats of horsemanship. half the fighting con sisting in the work of capturing the en- emy's steeds. Cowboy bar excellence has been the Cossack; he could ride and throw lasso with any of that ilk. F. D MiIlet who campaigned with the Cos sack. declared he was very like our own western frontiersman: independent in spirit. self reliant, and full of resource with little of the servility of the ordinary Slav: and declared further he was not quite the flre-eater reputed
 But the Cussack is no lamb; he is 8 fighter by birth and by trade. If Ifordered 10 make war on peasants. he makes wal 10 finish. with thoroughness that has

HUMAN HEARTS"

Sonm dramas die in infancy for lack of the elements of success. No matter how claborately presented they may br, they fail to appeal to the public and soon go on the shelf. But q melo' drama like Human Hearts holds it's original charm. It has been seen throughout the country for the past nine years, yet there is no decrease in public interest in this delightful play. It contains all the elements of success -pathos. villainy and comedy-and will he presented at Polis Wednesday afternoon and evening. Prices are 25, 3j and JO cents. Bargain matinec 25 cents.

LITTLE JOHNNY JONES.


 There is in Little Johnny Jones'" which George Cohan wrote and ill which he appears at Polls tonight, Il character both unique and original, entirely new in the history of stage creations, and yet one so familiar to the average American that the wonder is no other writer of farce has hit upon the idea long before. "The un- known,' as he is designated on the program and played by Tom Lewis. is Il study of human character that must have caused Mir Conan a great many hours of careful thought. It is not easy to write into d play a man always the worse for liquor, and make him acceptable to a refined audience. yet Mir Conan has accomplished this with such delicacy and such q super for sense of humor that he has succeed cd in giving to the stage a character that .shas probably caused more talk, more discussion and more genuine laughter than anything seen for years. Mir Cohan has displayed rare good judgment in selecting MT Lewis for this role. although it is said he did so against the advice of many. The fact remains, however, that Mir Lewis has scored one of the greatest personal successes of years. Nothing could be funnier than his Interpretation of the character, the semi-di2nitied, quizzi- cal. half jagged individual is here be. fore Us as natural as life, with lines that bubble over with wit. "The tn. known strikes the popular chord and | wins with a bound so decided that il ! leaves all recent characters seen ill farce, drama or comedy at the post Prices for to-night's production ar, 25, 50, a cents, Sl and $1J0.
