THE com AND BoBEcHoN GAME.


The bobechon is a little toy, easily
constructed, with which very in
teresting game may be played. It
comes to us from France, where it is
much in vogue; and while child
can play it, it is often intlulged in by
grown-ups, for, though simple, it re-
quires some skill. That, however, is
soon acquired with practice.
To prepare the bobechon, make a
tight roll Of a piece of flannel or Of
heavy cloth. The roll should be
about three inches long and half an
inch in diameter. To keep it in
shape, wind string around it tightly
from one end to the other.
Now take piece Of fur and cut a
circular piece out Of it an inch and a
half in diameter If you have not

best she has ever done The act is
funny from start to finish with
style of humor as refreshing as it is
unusual. The Rozaires in their double
slack wire act, fully live up to their
reputation and in addition to the well
known features of their act, introduce
one or two novelties which never
fail to score. Paul Barnes as mono
logue artist Is in a distinct class by
himself. His entry alone generally
furnishes as much amusement as any
one has right to expect, and if any
thing more were needed the balance
of his act furnishes it. Carter and
Burford in "The Act Beautiful" in
troduce several distinctly new fea-
lures, and give an enjoyable and fin
ished performance in every way, their
singing alone being enough to COM
mend them to any audience. The Me-
dallion Trio has long been regarded
as among the best in their particular
line. Their work on the saxophones
will be a treat to lovers of good music,

Szz<B ADJUSTMENTS 10

The robust performance of "The
Old Bedstead," as given by the Press
club Thursday night, was lusty tri-
umph. These semi-occasional dra-
matte affairs by the ebullient gentle
men of the local press are always re.
garded-by the gentlemen themselves
as establishing new and difficult
standards in the higher realms of his
toric art.
Uncle Toms Cabin" and "The Ham
Show" scintillating as they were,
have been completely outshone in the
greater effulgence of the "Old Bed
stead" In the latter play, more than
in either of the previous perform
ances, the melodramatic streaks of the
drama met with a greater response in
the color scheme of the cast. This
is no fleeing rainbow comment. Be-
meath it's blushing modesty one may
see the flag of truth, red and waving.
Before l saw THE Old Bedstead"
thought Lincoln J. Carter the king OF
melodramatic fire-eaters-the only
playwriter whose Beau Brummel vii.
lains had the blood of Bill Sykes. But
there are others. A new school of
playwriting has been founded here in
Zion. Waldemar Young and Race
Whitney are it's apostles.
In The Old Bedstead"- tech.
Mque of the play-there is a combina.
zion of Carter, Belasco and Ibsen
methods such as to place the drama in
class by itself. The dark under.
current of conflicting villainy a la
Carter is there-bold and contrasting
lights and shades a la Belasco are
seen-through it all runs the speculat.
i've charm and subtilty of Ibsen. Such
a gathering of dramatic ways and
means were never before so united in
an effort to insure startling effects and
awaken positive surprise. A play OF
such wonderful proportions absolutely
required cast of intelligence and dis.
erection. "The Old Bedstead," as a
play, must stand or fall according to
the actor strength of its Stats. The
Stats selected for the Thursday night
performance were, in some cases, a
little warped and knotty. In the
main, however, they were as strong as
hickory.
l do not propose, however, to indi.
vidualize the various roles. l have
my reasons. AS member of the club
l must observe the rule not to excite
envy or create jealousy among the
members. Hence I shall escape
trouble by saying that the acting was
bully-far better than we had a right
to expect.
"The Old Bedstead" passes into the
dramatic archives of the club among
the other huge successes. Not an
unpleasant feature of the affair is the
temporary imitation the performance
has given to the clubs money box.
