The Andres, who style themselves Adopts Mystique," supported by a strong vaudeville company. will be the offering all this week at the Bijou Theatre, with the usual matinees These interesting people, whose powers over psychic phe- nomena, are said to be remarkable, have but recently arrived In this country, but for years they have been entertaining audiences throughout the British King dom, and have on two different occasions appeared before King Edward by royal command. They number among some of their strongest friends, 1t is said, the no- bility of England. Their entertainment consists of second sight and mind read Ing of a scientific order, mingled with plenty of fun. It is said that the per formance differs from anything hereto fore seen in the south. During this act people who wish to make a test are re- quested to think intently of something past, present or in the future. The ques- ton is not mentioned to any one, but Mime. Andre usually gives correct an swer, completely mystifying the audience. No mechanical apparatus of any kind is uSed fact which makes the demonstra- tion all the more effective.
 In support of the Andres, there will be an excellent company of vaudeville en- tertainers. combining a number of high class feature acts. The sort of enter tainment offered will be diversified and re- fined, appealing to all classes of theatre goers. The company was booked direct from New York, so that Birmingham will be the first town played by this organi- zation in the south.
 In addition to other pleasing features, the cameragraph will present new series of moving pictures. Although this ma chine has been brought into competition with some of the cleverest vaudeville per formers in the country at the Bijou this summer. 1t has held it's popularity, and the pictures are always enjoyed. This is, no doubt, a result of the uniformly en- tertaining subjects which have been pre- scented.
 The summer season at the Bijou has so far been even more successful than was anticipated. despite the fact that warm weather and outdoor attractions have proven strong competitors. The vaude- vile bills offered have been, as q whole, above the usual class of summer enter tainment, and for that reason theatre goers have extended liberal patronage.
 The Bijous cooling plant has kept the house comfortable
