Vaudeville at Lyric.

a galaxy of vaudeville stars are putting
on show at the Lyric theatre this week
that ought to do a good weeks business.
There are very few dull lines in the en-
tire bill that began at yesterdays matinee
The comedy sketch presented by Coin s
troupe of performing dogs entitled. 1T
Happened in DOgville,' is easily the hit
of the performance. These clever CANNES
go through the playlet without any as
sistance, and in dog pantomime tell a
real interesting story. There are fully a
dozen dogs in the cast, and at last nights
performance not one of them forgot his
lines
The monologue of Miss Bessie Bolton is
worthy of mention. Her singing is per-
haps the best part of her acI. Folly and
Ethel Hazel are seen and heard Ia
and it is worth seeing. Mr.. and Mrs. Mark
ing that is in keeping with the entertain

favOrite at the, Lyric, sang a new Illus

one feature of the bill that cannot be
spoken of too highly is the work of Dacey,
Chase and Adair This trio of comedians
keep the interest of their audience dur
ing every minute of their act. which is
entitled. Our Irish Uncle's Visit" One
could not say truthfully that the sem
blance of a plot exists in this piece of
comedy. 1t was evidently built for the
sole purpose of making folks laugh, and

treatment of the people of the south, the
conditions surrounding them and the stir

plays dealing with similar incidents. Mr..
Arthur is famous for the manner I'M which

PROMISE OF THE THEATRES.
Lew Dockstader.

Lew Dockstader, by reason of his nat
ural gifts and the years OF careful study
which he has devoted to the art of min
streisy, has placed himself in a class by
himself as an interpreter of minstrel hu-
NOR. This is not only recognized by the
great value placed on his services by
managers. particularly in a financial
sense, but is especially manifested by the
fact that his minstrel company is the
only one in this country, or in any other,
for that matter, which plays the first
class theatres.
II is no unusual thing to find in the list
of attractions announced at the leading
theatres. the DOckstader minstrel COM
pany, sandwiched in between Maude
Adams, Richard Mansfield, the Sothern-
Marlowe company, a grand opera COM
pany and other attractions equally pO-
tential in the field of amusements This
IS due not only to Dockstader's own APP
pearance with the company. but because
he has had the foresight and courage to
also stand high in the profession. making
altogether an aggregation of talent that
embraces the very best in the varied de-
partments of minstrelsy.
In forming his company this season he
has shown his keenneSS as a manager
and an artist He encourages rivalry and
his desire is to shine through the super
stars do. by the inferior quality of their
company.
In the performance which ne viii pre-
sent at the Salt Lake theatre Mr.. Dock
etader believes he has reached the high
est form of minstrelsy in the magnifi-
cence of the stage equipment. in the
ability of his comedians and singers. and
3n his unparalleled minstrel entertain

Among the fighters of the stage
whose powers of controversy are
among the sharpest is William A Bra
dy- he of the ten-year lease OF the Au-
ditcrium. His best series of curtain
lectures We're delivered during the short
run of The Redskin." The play was
mercilessly mauled and Mr.. Brady was
to go before the curtain each night and
defend it and himself.
He never proceeded. though, to the
length TO which Maurice Campbell. the
husband of Henrietta Crosman, has
gone upon several occasions. There
have been times when Crosman has
been so stirred up by what people have
thought and said of his play that he
has attacked them with personal force.
And he has yet to win fight.
Lloyd Bingham, Amelia Bingham's
husband, is another of the feet of fight
ing husbands. He has done much OF his
in cafes. Miss Bingham has Done some
of hers from the stage. That was the
forum she chose for her attacks upon
the two women who wrote THE Lilac
Room in which she failed this spring.
III one of her speeches along this line
she had to apologize for the absence
English. and Miss Bingham said laugh
ingly that she supposed they had lost
their way to the theatre. Whereupon
one of them sat down the next day and
wrote a note to Miss Bingham explain
ing, pom honor that such was not the
case. They were English all right.

It will be good to see Lew Dockstader
bnd his merry minstrel men again. Not
for several years has the best of all
the minstrel men honored us with a
visit. Reports from down the line in
dictate that he has a mighty funny
show. That's easy enough to believe,
for Lew never had any other kind. He
will be right welcome TO our fair city.
This week at the Theatre we are
going to have something else that will
be worth while Otis Skinner comes to
play THE Duel MIR. Skinner visits
the far west too rarely. It is TO be
hoped that his reception will be cordial
enough to make him want TO come out

The Leighton season closes at the
Grand next Saturday night, which is a
week or two earlier than had been an
ticipated. Poor business is frankly as
signed as the reason. Mr.. Leighton and
his players have given some good per-
dormances at the Grand, but for some
reason they have failed TO draw a pro-
ftable patronage. The star and his
company have made a great many
friends in salt Lake, who will wish
than well.
The Actors Fund fair closed in New
York last night. The attendance is re-

Of $40 000 which is quite a lot when

ACTORS QUARREL
WITH AUDIENCES

The recent attack upon Henry Wood
ruff and the other members of the
Brown of Harvard" company upon the
occasion of their first appearance in
Boston was the most elaborate, al
though it was far from the first assault
of its sort with which actors in this
country have had to deal Indeed, as
the drama is practiced in some parts of
the land and under some circumstances
it's practice might be regarded as one
of those extra hazardous occupations
the participants in which pay added life
and accident insurance premiums or
can get no chance to pay any at all,
says the Chicago Tribune.
1t was not so long ago that in a one
night stand in Texas a. cowboy shot at
the heavy villain in a travelling trop
because he forgot that it was a play.
He objected to the villain't conduct
and he signalized his disapprobation
with his forty-five.
And it was only a little while ago
that Will T. Hodge. who plays rube
part in Joe Weber's company in 1.-THE
Dream City, had to stop the perform
ance while he administered verbal
castigation to some college bows who
sat in one of the front rows and
amused themselves by critieiSing
Hodges acting TO his face He knows
that he can play rube parts. for years
ago did not George AIDE, himself an
agriculturist of repute, select him as
the actor best fitted to play the pube
father of Peggy who came from Paris?
woodruff made no answer from the
stage to the shower of lemons and
eggs. In mis- reticence ne differed from
many actors and managers of the day,
who seem to have run mad upon the
subject of addressing their audiences
without their audiences previous invi-
tation-
Recently Ben Greet. against whose
presentations of Shakespeare without
any scenery and with little acting a
wave ofsresentment seems to have set
in, took occasion in a certain speech to
refer i'm discourteous manner to Will
liam Winter. Now, it is safe bet
that William Winter has forgotten
more about the drama and all that is
connected with it or in any way related
to. it than Ben Greet ever knew. The
popularity OF Greet's insclent attack
upon Mr. Winter is best appreciated
when 10 is known that out of the cto-'
rus of those who were spurred into dis
