 Vaudeville Company Coming.

Vano, the Jail Breaker, md His Own
 Vaudeville Company Coming.
 The vaudeville company this week is headed by Bending Bonda a very cley- CT grotesque acrobat. Following him are Marlowe and Plunkett, a fine team of comedians and one of the best-known black-face acts in vaudeville. Their reputation extends from ocean to ocean and as laugh producers they are hard to beat. They introduce a unioue black face speciality entitled "A Deaf stu- dent" and they promise to keep the au- dience in the best of humor during ina twenty minutes they are oh the stage.
 Other Well-known celebrities on this Dill are the Kaufman sisters. from the Alhambra theater, London. These Iit- tie ladies introduce some very clever dancing. They are also very attractive to the eye Following them are tha Great Vanos, European jail breakers and handcuff manipulators.
 William Vano and his beautiful wife Minerva, have acquired their skin by sheer hard work. In speaking of their act, it is one that has mystified tbo,,- sands, both in foreign countries and in America, Mir, Vano says that he has worked at it for years and it took eighteen months of hard work before his wife was able to take her nresa,t position in the act. The thing tbot usually makes the biggest hit is their power to release themselves from any handcuffs, armbands. legbands, or any. thing of that sort, in very short space of time. Mrs. Vano is the only Iadv handcuff manipulator in the world They have mystified the secret service men and police officials in every large city of Europe.
 They have also broken out of iail in Russia, Paris. London, New York. etc They positively guarantee to release in a few minutes from any pair of nlanaeles, handcuffs and lee- bands that the police officials or puhIio may bring. Mrs. Vano has also agreed to release herself from a straightiael,at during their performance here, and everybody who knows what a straigbt- jacket is knows that it is almost 2 physical impossibility for anyone to re- lease himself from one of these instrn- ments of torture.
 The performance concludes win Q comedy entitled "A Night in Medical College" This farce is said to be a scream and is guaranteed to Issn

Still another feat ure of this show is the wrestling ponies who best George Washington, the champion southern wrestler, in three rounds catch-as-cat teh-can.
 The bareback riding of Sambo. the grizzly bear, and Jo-Jo, the gorilla, are side-splitting as well as fine iIlustra- tions of the perfect training of all the animals,

BIG TIME FOR JUVENILES
THOUSANDS OF YOUNG FOLKS
 WILL HAVE JOY.

Paying Trolley Fare Will Get Prize
 In Addition q Gold Watch Will be
 Given the Posessor of the Lucky
 Ticket.
 With the chance of winning hand some gold watch and the surety of a Beautiful souvenir, Savin Rock grove Will be filled tomorrow afternoon, when the management of the resort holds that most popular festival of all the season" Juvenile Day."
 Long before 8 o'clock tonight every youngster in the city will be in bed, leaving instructions to be called bright and early, and before 10 o'clock the lunch boxes will be packed and it will be all aboard" for Savin Rock and a grand good time.
 As each boy and girl between the ages of five and fourteen years pays the fare the conductor will hand out ticket which will entitle the youngster to souvenir at the grove. The little girls will be made happy by gay col ored Japanese parasol, pretty neck chain, a stickpin, dainty folding fans, work baskets and other presents chosen by the wife of one of the park man agerS and picked out with the exact knowledge of the fine things little girls delight in. Then their brothers, on show ing the coupon to an attendant, will re- ceive balls, bats, whips or a crackajack knife, just the right sort of things for boy for MT. Blake was one himself not so many years ago.
 But the souvenir is not the only thing the ticket is good for. The one who holds the ticket with lucky number will receive the watch, the number to be drawn from hat by the "littlest" girl present and the number to be read from the stage during the afternoon vaudeville show.
 That show is to be especially adapted to the tastes of children and the vau- deville performers will be their funniest to amuse the little ones.
 During the day there will be free Punch and Judy show conducted by Professor Frank Prior, and Judy will be murdered by her high-volced spouse, with all the particulars so narrowing and yet so dear to the hearts of every child.
 Juvenile day needs no advertising; the children who have been attending and enjoying this event for the past three years need no urging to attend.
