FOUR CENTURIES TO BUILD.
st. Peters Cathedral One of the
Worlds Wonders.

st. Peters at Rome is the largest
temple of worship in the world. 1t
stands on ground which was formerly
the site Of Nero's circus in the north
west part of the city, and is built in
the form OF Latin cross. The height
Of the dome from the pavement to the
top of the cross is AS feet considera-

the hammer and clapper, weighs over
nine and quarter tons. The foun-
dation was laid in 1850 4. D. During
the time that work was in progress,
forty-three Popes lived and died.
While it was dedicated in the year
1926, it was not entirely finished until

you the greatest troupe of trained
monkeys in the world. They viii h.
entered in pony race once around the
track. The champion rider, Jocko tho
hnest monkey bareback rider in tbe
world, holds the record in pony rae
ing. He is number 4 and wears tha
bright red coat"
Out come the ponies and their lIttIa
riders. They are lined up at thn starr-
ing point and eyeryone's eyes are
strained Tor a look at Jocko. Down
goes the flag, and the ponies are off
IKE the WIND, their riders clingng to
their necks.
Jocko is in the lead. A quarter of
the way he whirls. the others vainly
endeavorins to gain on him. He is
half way round, and the crowd is
cheering the plucky little rider, when
suddenly he seems to lose his hold and
slips back on the pony's launches
His grip is gone but he has not lost
his heart, and tries desperately to re-
gain hold.
Startled by the monkeys unusua,
movement, the pony leaps forward.
Jocko tries TO steady himself by
hanging TO the pony's tail, but is
thrown suddenly backward to the
ground. In his little monkey heart
Jocko trusts his faithful mount to
stop. but the pony, unable to under
stand what it is all about, daShes mad
ly on. dragging his little rider.
Cheers die on the lips of the specta-
tors as the little fel.Dw is bumped and
kicked over the rough course. Attend

the distance before he can be stopped,

in the great hall struck twelve and the
lights were still blazing among the
eversreens. and the fire upon the
hearth sputtered and sparkled as cheer

1.-THE GINGERBREAD MAN"

The music of THE Gingerbread
Man." the airy, merry fairyque that
will be the attraction a tthe Gennett
on May 9Th, was written by A. Bald
win Sloan, and is conceded to be
the best work he has ever produced.
With such succe sses as Jack and the
Beanstalk," The Mocking Bird" and
Lady Teazle," his work in The Gin
gerbread Man" does him great credit.
Mr.. Sloan has givn to the music low
ing public a number of airs that have
been whistled and sung but none that
has caught on with as firm a grasp as
those in his latest success. John
Dough-" the Maize" song, Beautiful
Land of Bon-Bon,' Moon, Moon
Moon" with its wonderful mechani,
cal effects and numerous others, will
attract the popular fancy and become
household favorites.

At THE THEATERS
VAUDEVILLE AT THE NEW PHIL
LIPS.

One of the distinct features of the
bill at the New Phillips this week,
opening with this afternoon, will be
Eddie Koran, known as THE Elegant
Gent the man with many dances.
He has a novely turn that is said to
be one of the best that vaudeville
circuits touching Richmond can pre-
sent. Other features will be the Cliff
Dean Company, presenting a humor-
Gus satire on married life, which is
also highly recommended by those
who have seen these performers at
other places. Special interest will at
tach to the appearance of the Buck
eye Trio, which will be seen in it's
latest creation "A Tramp's Dream"
This permits of the introduction of
acrobatic, grotesque and contortion
work. The motion pictures for this
week are Last Witch" Haunted
House." Iii Rewarded Conjurer" and
How Pa Helps With housekeeping"
The performance on Tuesday night
will be a benefit for the earthquake
sufferers and half the proceeds will
be given for that worthy cause. .-

AT THE GENNETT.

Many new faces will be seen at the
Gennett vaudeville this week and lib
eral patronage is anticipated from the
time the curtain goes up thsi after
noon until it is rung down on the final
performance on Saturday afternoon.
There will be no vaudeville next Sat
urday night owing to the appearance
of THE Gingerbread Man" Among
those to appear this week who are
wholly new to Gennett patrons are
the DeAcos, acrobatic marksmen and
posturing artists, who are said to
have the only act of the kind in the
world; Laura Buckley, impersonator;
Barr and Evans, refined character
comedy; Edward Gille, comedian and
comdy juggler; and the Musical
Simpsons, opponents of high-class
music on legitimate and novelty in
struments. AS usual there will be
new illustrated songs and motion pic
lures. 1t is believed the bill will be
found one of the best of the many
good ones Manager Swisher has Civ
en- his patrons.
