The management of the Gennett

ual in regard TO its claims for the
quality of its bill for this week. The
headline position has been assigned
to the Three Valenteenes. who, &C
cording to the bills. have the greatest
casting act in vaudeville. The bills
also declare that this act alone is
worth three times the price of admis-
sion" Some special interest attaches
to the appearance of Lizzie Wilson,
sister of Al Wilson of Watch on the
Rhine fame, who is a German coined
ienne of no mean ability. 1t is thought
she will prove one of the greatest
drawing cards of the week. Others
on the bill are the Four Bragdons in

must be added the illustrated song.
