be the winning combination to play at

esq on the fact that trios win predomi-
nate on this weeks bill at the popular

There are three people in the head
liner, The Clubman and the Dancing
Girls" the sketch which has been a
factor in packing the Orpheum at Los
Angeles for the past two weeks. The
part of the clubman is in the hands of
the comedian, J. Francis DOoley. The
Dancing Girls will be interpreted by
Dorothy Bremen and Ethel Rose.
Froh the title the plot can be guessed
and there is plenty of go" from start
to finish.
The trio combination will be broken
in the second feature, Mildred Flora.
However she shines in three distinct
departures in a single act-singing,
dancing and wire-walking. She is
billed as an eccentric comedienne.
Three bubbling stems in the form Of
father, son and little daughter, consti-
tUte another turn which appears on
the programme as the Busch family.
They are expert gymnasts and come

"Human Hearts,

Our brothers across the ocean are
now clamoring for American made
goods, both commercial and theatri-
cal. 1t is not so many years ago that
an American. play or actor was at a
low ebb, and for that reason Ameri-
can managers were compelled to i'm
port their melodramatic material from
the other side. But times have changed
of late, and during the last few years
any play that has borne an American
trademark has been accorded a
hearty welcome on the other side.
One of the most successful American
plays that has been sent to England
in recent years has been Human
Hearts" 1t is now meeting with great
success at the Remington theatre in
London. Such demand has been made
for this piece that there has been, in
addition TO the London company,
speciality company organized to tour
the provinces. Both of these COM
panies are playing to capacity nightly.
Mr.. Vaudeville also controls the rights
for that country as well as for this.

minstrelsy is not dead, as this form
Of entertainment is entirely an Amer
lean feature which has gradually
drifted away from the ideas Of it's
originatOrs. One of the sure signs of
its popularity is that every writer of
comic opera and musical comedy in
PRODUCES negro songs, melodies and
dances in all their works, and inva-
riably their biggest hits have been
made with these numbers. There was
a time when the public would stand
for so-called minstrel show to appear
in Louis XIV costumes, powdered wigs
and painted faces, which was rather
charming to look upon; because it was
new and in some degree true to the
trOubadour style of the orient, but this
style having lost its novelty is no
longer charming. and Furthermore,
theatre-gOers now want American
minstrelsy that is true to negro life
of our own country. Knowing that the
public wants this form of entertain
ment. Mr.. Primrose is first to furnish
this old-tinne fOrm~of amusement, but
with modern embellishments OF a kind
that enhances the effect. The gaudily
bedecked costumes and white-face
minstrelsy has seen its day. In its
place has come the merry darby fun
intermingled with up-to-date songs
and humor, led by George Primrose
