VAUDEVILLE.

Thomas ]. Ryan and his company in a sketch. Mag Haggcrty's Recep- tion." is the headline feature at the Jacques this week and the act makes very good impression. The skit has some very amusing features with plenty of horseplay thrown .n. all tending to make good with the audi enee. The dialogue is bright and snappy and Ryan's act should prove popular before the week is over. The Whitman Sisters have a turn based on southern life in which they con- tribute vocal numbers which are not any too good. Of course the sketch would not be complete without . darky. He Is Willie Robinson and Is somewhat funnier than the eolored kids seen here in previous skits. The Metropolitan Grand Opera trio may he good. but it appears as though classical music Is not any to well appreciated al the Jacques. No grand opera for the galleries. The rest of the biII. Ia Mare brothers. Dorsch and Russell. Charles and Fannie Van. KrieseI's dogs and the electro graph. make up a show that Is fairly good.
