One OF the most picturesque acts tho
vaudeville stage has had IN a long time
Is THE Sunny South" which will he at
Keith's next week, which is given by five
nimble colored men and five graceful col
ored women. representing, with special
scenic, costume and electrical effects, va
rious phases OF life I'm the Land OF Cot
ton. "The Dance OF the Jack o. Lam
tcrns," THE Social Set Serenade." and
"PasJimes on The Ievec," arc some OF its
pretty features The act is everywhere
being received with hearty enthusiasm.

The property man OF Mrs. Fiske's Man
hattsn company has to be something OF n
farmer I'm these days. For the last act
Of leah Kloschna," which Mrs. Fiske is
10 present here next week. the property
man and his assistants must plant a mat
ter OF zoo lcttuces. To be sure they are
OF papicr machc, but they look very real
and must be planted just as carefully as.
and much more quickly, than real ones.
Every night after the performance the
stage farmer must uproot his lettuces
and pack them away I'm barrels TIL the
last act comes around again. 1t il no
small task 20 do this In the short space
between acts, and six men plant indus
triOusly while the orchestra Is PLAYING
The natural appearance OF the lcttuces
IL not dspelled when one is near them.
Although all stage settings lose their ef-
feet from n near view, in Leah I[lesch-
ma" the fertile fields OF Neustadt. Aus
trla, are just "a beautiful az close range.
The scene Is novel picturesque and
charming. The making OF the lettuces
was a clever bit OF craftsmanship. Their
leaves are tinted a natural green and they
are deftly built about a foundation of
cotton. Attached 90 each Is a root In the
form OF a pin The planting Is accom-
plished by putting the pins into holes in
the structure that countcrfelts the WELL
titled soil

VAUDEVILLE.

There has been much discussion created by Roland Vests headline sketch. "The Criminal" at the Jacques this week, MT West changes his personality to fit six separate roles in the tabloid melodrama which he is presenting and the speed, finish and fidelity with which each charac- terization is given make the complete offering one of the most valuable turns in variety. The patronage this week indicates better than any amount of favorable or adverse criti- cism could the fact that the acts sup porting the headliner are of super for grade. Emil Hoch and company in pretty and pleasing little com edy, Loves Young Dream:" John ston and Harty, singing comedians; Daisy Harcourt. picturesque Eng fish entertainer; Arthur Whitelaw, Celtic wit; the Baker troupe of cy- clists, and Golden and Hughes round out program which apparently has the unequivocal approval of the thea tergoing public. Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents: afternoons 10 and 20 cents, ladies 10 cents. Reserved seats. Next week the biggest act in Ameri- can vaudeville, "The Futurity Win ner."

Now these gentlemen say they will change the character of the theater and they want the public to change the name. so for an induce ment they offer solid gold watch to the lady who suggests the best name for the theater, the only condition be- ing that the name must be short and easy to remember. A committee of newspaper men to be the judges. Bring name to Bijou ticket office. The show runs continuously from to 6, [ to 11:3O; come when you please stay until you have seen the entire show, which will last about one hour The prices wtll be admission and seat 10 cents, and children cents. The first few rows will be reserved for h. dies. The same concern will reopen the Eagle Roller Skating rink on De cember 1st. All up-to-date skates of the latest model will be used.

THE CHARITY BALL.

The committee in charge of the big charity ball which Company G has de cided to hold for the benefit of the new Catholic hospital has received several offers from prominent women of Waterbury, offering to aid in the work. The committee has accepted these offers with thanks. and will ex- tend invitations to others to take part also. The ball will be held in the new Music hall, in the Buckingham building and will be on the same ella borate scale that has characterized the previous affairs of the organiza- tion. The first distribution of tickets will take place on Tuesday evening of next week. when the company will hold its regular weekly drill.

THURSDAY, NOV 22, 1906.

If We may accept the expert opinion of the famous son of famous father pulpit eloQuence has suffered decline. According to Rev Thomas Sturgeon, son of the late Rev c. H. Sturgeon, the sermon of to-day is no longer the power it was. It is possible the mod ern sermon may be couched in equally forcible language, but it's influence cannot be compared with that wield- ed by the exhortations of a generation or more ago. The pastor today, re- marks the Cleveland Plain Dealer, faces very different audience, an au- dience that is at once critical and largely unimpressionable It doesn't ask for rhapsodies. it is. .impervious to warning lessons, it refuses to have it's feelings narrowed up. This was not the congregation the old-time giants of the pulpits faced. They were not handicapped by such considerations as temper the eloquent flight of the preacher of to-day.

THE RIIOII

To-day the Bijou will open its doors under the management of P. r. Ma ban and k. T. Halliwell. who have the reputation of conducting only the best and cleanest in the amusement line Whatever the policy in the past the public can rest assured that noth- ing will be tolerated that can offend the most faslidious. They are going to make it popular resort for ladies who tired from shopping can drop in and while resting can enjoy an hours good clean entertainment. also where parents can send children and feel that they will be well taken care of. The pictures and illustratd songs will be changed Monday and Thursday of
