ADJUSTMENTS

The bill at the Garrick this week
speaks for itself, introducing as it
does George Fortesque and his six
little dreams in the original scene
from San-Toy; Nellie Beaumont, the
star Of The Ssrio- Comic Goyerness''
IN her new vaudeville venture; Kitty
Gordon and her Broadway Broilers,
direct from Joe Weber's Music Hall,
and others equally we'll known. George
Fortesque and his cast will sing some
Of the songs of the San Toy produc-
tion and will present wealth of Jap
anese scenery. Those who have given
up 81 and 81 TO see Fortesque and
other stars included in this bill when
they were appearing in the legitimate,
will doubtless welcome the opportu-
nifty OF seeing them at vaudeville
prices. Nellie Beaumont, fresh from
the legitimate ranks, has chosen for
her debut upon the vaudeville stage
the latest work of George Totten
Smith, whose creations have, perhaps,
achieved more popularity than those
OF any composer devoted TO productions
of a musical comedy class. The new
sketch is entitled "a Busy Day, :" and
IS said to be replete with humor Of
the most breezy kind, quantities Of
fun being closely jumbled together
and the specialties following each
other in quick-step time. Miss Beau
mont, who will be recalled as having
been the star Of "The Serio- Comic
Governess" earlier in the season, is
said to have a role in the work that is
we'll suited to her requirements and
which displays her attractive person.
ality TO infinite advantage.
On Wednesday evening, April 18th,

hciency which has made it a much
sought addition to various musical,
social and charitable eveLts in the
vicinity of Philadelphia. The Man
dolin Club does not suffer by compari-
son and IS sure to make its part Of the
programme an enjoyable one. Several
specialties are introduced in true col
lege spirit. Parodies of popular songs,
rag-time, and funny stunts will
mingle with classic melodies and stir
ring harmonies. One of the features
OF the programme introduces that
rather unusual type of musician, scien-
titic whistler. Walter Carson, who
appears in duet with Reynold Spaeth.
has been favorably compared with the
best whistlers Of the professional
stage. Another speciality which is sure

tennis. The Haverford Clubs are com
