ADJUSTMENTS
Novelty.

Novelty.
One of the highest class acts of the
gymnastic variety which has ever been
seen on the local vaudeville stage is on
the bill at the Novelty theater for this
week. It is presented by the five
Bellatzer sisters and is startlingly
unique in many ways. These girls
have a reputation that is information
al. In fact they are better known in
the variety houses of Europe than they
are in those of this country, as this
is their first season here, but the tame
that they have achieved abroad will be
ocean for they do a turn that is ex-
ceedingly original and one that Is
bound to make a tremendous hit at the
Novelty during the week. If the vocl-
ferrous receptions which were accorded
them by the large audiences at the per-
formances yesterday can be taken as
criterion. Perhaps the feature OF the
act is the marvellous strength display
ed by Miss Ella, the oldest and stock1est
of the sisters, all of whom are most
shapely women. She hangs with her
knees from stationary trapeze which
is way up in the wings and holds with
her wrists and hands swinging rings
and trapezes on which the other girls
do all sorts of clever work, singly and
in pairs. Then the act is concluded
by the four girls grouped on apparatus
which is held by Miss Ella and which
is twisted around with lightning rapid
ity. It is certainly remarkable fin
ish to a remarkable act.
There are a number of other acts on
the Novelty's bill for this week which
makes thes how a distinctive one of
real merit. 1t is altogether different
from the fine show that was at this
house last week but is none the less
enjoyable. One of these acts is present
ed by Wilbur Amos. a clever juggler
and plate manipulation who does some
excellent balancing stunts and plate
