he THEATREH

Carlyle Moore and Catherine Countiss,
two clever stock company players. will
be at Keith's next week in a dashng
romantic playlet that is being received
with enthusiasm everywhere. This little
play is called "The Mans the Thing" a
title that suggests the dainty romance of
the beautiful girl OF rank whose adven-
turous spirit demands some deeds to prove
her lovers love for her. The play is pret-
tily staged and costumed and there is a
lively display of swordmanship az the fin-
ish OF the act that brings the curtain
down amid thundrous applause.
There will be rushing greeting for
Bessie Wynn, the dainty little musical
comedy star, when she comes to Keith s
next week. Miss Wynn has not bees "a
Providence since her big hit In Babes In
Toyland." as the principal boy, but. as
then, she is still the prettiest hit OF
femininity on the American stage. She's
a CHEEKY little girl. too, and her infec-
tious manner singing catchy melodies
makes them go like wildhre' with the
audience. For the first time next week
Miss Wynn will sing a song Of her own
composition, mot For Me-"
At the Nickel Theatre the last three
days of the week the list of motion pic
lures is admirably diversified. Wood In
dustry," a very instructive picture. will
appeal to many people and will have real
educational value for many, young
and old. "Cast Up By the Sea" is a very
pathetic picture that was heartily ap-
plauded. II tells in effective pictures of
what a bright little baby. lashed TO its
dead mothers breast and washed ashore
in fearful storm, does for another moth
er, who adopts 1t when her own little baby
has died. "Policeman's Boots" was an
uproariously funny picture of the trou-
bles OF copper and Amateur Hunt
ers' was another merry comedy film. Bob
Alden and the Nickel quartet sang the
tuneful philosophy song, Keep On Smil-
ing" which, with it's capital illustrations,
was heartily applauded and Miss Beau
lieu's illustrated song Offering met with
equal favor.
One of the most artistic things the vau-
deville stage has had for many day Is
the -pantonfinfette- -rfea-Walton, the
celebrated English pantomimist. Mr.. Wal
ton is truly 'The Monarch OF Silent Com
edy" For 80 minutes-a long time In vau-
deville-Mr Walton stays upon the stage
without speaking word, yet every
thought and emotion is clearly understood
by the audience because OF his wonderful
pantomimic expression. II Is an act that
is making a great deal OF talk and many
people are going to Keith's to see Mr..
Walton's act alone.
A fellow-countryman OF Mr.. Walton is
also makina an emphatic hit at that same
theatre this week This is Griff. the new.
conner to America. who is making his firs'
appearance in this country. Griff Is call
e. a Juggling joker" AS matter oi
fact. he is quite the drollest fellow tha
England has sent us for many a day. NJ
one listening TO his funny patter can &c
cuse Engishmen of being lacking In hu
NOR. Griff is not n great juggler, but NJ
one gives a thought 10 his jugglery. II i
the amusing comments and explanation
he gives as he does his tricks that anus

extended to the committee appointed by
Local BOZ of Pawtucket, the joint commit
tee met at the Crown hotel last evening
to formulate plans which would result in
the closing of the stores on Saturday
evening the year around. The greatest
obstacle in the way seems to be the lack
of unanimity on the part of the propri-
etors, the majority of whom would like
TO close. but unless all will agree, the
larger stores for protection sake cannot
afford to do so while smaller stores keep
open.
The Pawtucket clerks were represented
by a committee comprising Bernard
Smith, John T. McGinn and r. ii. Cody,
