THAvIu AND ATTRACTIONS
A Great Performance is Given at the
Corn Palace With Band and the
Vaudeville.
The corn palace management GER
tain1y cannot be accused OF not Civ
Ing the people their moneys worth
nor of furnishing varied attractions
for the entertainment this year. And
everything about the entertainment
is lively and bright, with no dull
moments thrown in. From the time
that Bandmaster Thaviu starts off
on his excellent program until the
Bard brothers do their last startling
stunt the moments are full of thrill
lers.
The audience Tuesday night was
a very satisfactory one to the man
agement and it would undoubtedly
have been larger but for the storm
which came up about Z o'clock, and
with the accompanying lighting,
thunder, wind and a very small

many people at home or under cover
at some other place. The people
showed d fine appreciation Of Thayiu
and his band and the good Impress
ion that he made at the very first
is growing with each successive con-
cert. The appreciation enthuses the
bandmaster and the musicians and
they show an eagerness to satisfy
the people thoroughly. One of the
features of the band concert is the
appearance of Mr.. Arthur Ham, a
baritone singer of Chicago. He has
a great big voice that reaches to the
farthermost corners of the EXPOSE

the signal for the applause to break
forth. His songs are rendered in
good voice, plainly enunciated and
his singing is greatly enjoyed. The
audience usually gets three songs
from the obliging gentleman before
they let him go. His singing is one
of the distinctive successes of the
palace concerts.
With the conclusion of the con-
cert program Tuesday afternoon and
evening the full vaudeville acts
were given, the three absent mem
bers arriving during the morning
hours. The new acts seen on these
occasions were Melville and Higgins,
Snyder and Buckley and Mazuz and
Mazette. The latter do a tramp ac-
robatic act that contain some very
amusing features and they got a
good hand from the audience. The
tramp makeup is something startl-
ing II he does some clever work.
Melville and Higgins have one of
these quiet comedy acts that brings
out a long line Of comedy talk, and
the young lady certainly has a flow
of language with witty sayings that
keeps the audience convulsed from
beginning to end. Higgins, who is
alleged to have the appearance OF
an a of corn or a string bean to
Miss Melville, rips of something that
is entertaining. The pair made good
and their work got a strong hand.
Snyder and Buckley do a musical
stunt that has many good features
in the way of cornet playing, clarinet
saxaphone, bassoon, drums, etc. They
have a great act and although it is a
trifie long they are two Of the busiest
OF the vaudeville crowd. The Del
more sisters have made themselves
solid with the corr palace crowd and
Tuesday night they were called back
several times.
The Bard brothers close the en-
tertainment with their acrobatic
work, and everybody is free to say
that there is nothing like 1t. The
acts that they have worked down to
a fine point are thrilling, both for
their ingenuity and for the strength
required to do them.
