 are many other capital features com

 are giving a splendid performance of | the world famous drama in condensed ] form There is no dearth of sensa- tional and spectacular features. one of the most remarkable Of which is
 the mysterious disappearance of his satanic ma ieSty in a binding flash Of fire. Bur for the knowledge that there must be an Illusion somewhere, | thealer gOers would attest that Mr Kendall haL undergone sudden transformation into q cloud of smoke. The Devil' is the real sensation of ! the vaudeville season, and il must be seen by every theater gOer who
 wishes to berome thoroughly fam liar
 with the remarkable story. The Irish wizard too is daily and nightly | receiving rousing rounds of applause for his spectacular illusions, his be- WiIdering feats Of legerdemain, and
 above all, his successful style of en- gazing his audienceS's attention. Kaufman brothers, surpassing singers in blackface with roystering comedy features; Pearl and IoSco, harper and singer with unique and highly sue

CHRISTOPHER JR,

1t is no eXaggeration to assert that
 the David NJ. Hartford stock company
 has the town talking about this
 week $ attraction. It is q positive fact. Indeed. this capable company
 of performers could hardly be seen to better advantage than in the offering ] made famous by John Drew, Chris
 tOpher Jr." It is primarily vehicle ! of scope. replete with action, eli
 maXes, situations and laughter There ! is not dull line in it. nor a tagging moment. But the one pre-eminent 1 feature of the production is the mag niticent stage effects. John l.. WOOd-
 erson says he has only just begun to
 show WaterbuiianS what he can do
 and he does not state this boaStingly. l The last three scenes of this comedy ] could not have been staged more lay-
 ishly by any metropolitan house. It
 was distinct revelation to local patrons and praise, as a consequence,
 has been unsJinted, The principal role, that of Christopher Jr, is as stunned by Paul Taylor, man well fitted by virtue of his excellent train ing, to properly interpret a character which calls for much versatility comedy. the next moment serious in tent and purpose, again absolute be-
 wildermcnt. Mir Taylor received nine curtain calls on the opening night and justly deserved them His work is clean cut. vigorous. full of diversi- fled thought and study and best of all. clever. Dwight Allen, as veal thy East India trader, the father of young Christopher, presents as inter esting q bit of stdgecraft as the pat rOns of this theater have ever wit messed, and as a creator of parts, he is undoubtedly an artist whose name is in the ascendanCy. His work will bear watching. for il brea;hes of the
 finished product Miss Lillian Sey- moure is pleasingly assigned 10 the
 role Of the niece of retired soldier ] Major Medway, who is. by the way | i have no apologies for her presenta-
 tiOn of this character. It would not he inappropriate to say that Mir WCoderson could hardly be eXcelled as Major Medway, q retired soldier of Irish descent His bearing is per- feet and his pOise. eccentricities. rich accent and demeanOT all through the piece cannot fail to find a hearty re- ception with the average patron Mir
 Hartford has this week chosen a part
 subservient to a marked degree. and
 his humor and comedy Is of the quiet
 sort One feels touch of regret that he is not more in evidence during the enactment Of this broad, virile
 comedy. Clara Reynolds Smith and
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1908-12-16

Miss Davis are both well placed this
 week and their gowns are quite in keeping with their respective roles. Miss Clare Weldon has more OppOr- tunities this week to demonstrate her abilities as an artiste and her couver- sational work of the rapid fire sort, is as funny as it. was intended to be. One must see this comedy in order to fully appreciate it's scoring points. Matinee Thursday Beginning next week there will be illustrated songs and moving pictures between the acts. No waits.
