VAUDEVILLE

VAULT N1LAG
 Another big bill of high class vaudeville is announced for the Jacques next week. Harry w. Fields and the Redpath Napanees, who head the bill, were the hit of the bill in New Haven last week where, as the leading attraction of the programme. the act scored a not able success. This week the act has repeated it's successes in Bridgeport, and there Is every reason to believe that Waterbury theater goers will find 1t to their liking. Harry w. Fields is well known as a German dialect comedian. He is supported by four versatile young men and a quartet of pretty girls in the school room representation. Johnson & Hardy, singing comedians, another notable feature of the bill, are among the best known of their cal lings in vaudeville. Their songs are invariably catchy, and their pat ter is irresistible. The Four Pre- i vests, acrobatic comedians of unus- ual ability, have evolved new act, Fun in Turkish Bath, engaged as special feature of next weeks bill. George Armstrong;, a monologist and singing comedian, is well known as the happy chappie." Lizzie Evans and Jefferson Lloyd will pre- sent novel comedy sketch, Turn ing the Tables Carney & Wagner, singers and wooden shoe dancers;
 Boutin & Tillson with an impossible instrumental musical act replete with new features; and new films in the /electograph complete the bill. The final performance of the big bill of this week tonight is sure to at- tract a capacity audience. Patrons who have not secured tickets should not delay Howard & North, The Angelus, Arnoldo's Jungle beauties and other notable acts are included.

 Once upon time William Jen- nings Bryan was an actor--a barn stormer at that. Just whether the man from Nebraska was good or bad as thespian is matter that no one seems to recall, but the informant is positive that 2S years ago the sane Bryan was cast as Archibald Carlisle in East Lynne. Ada Gray was in the title role and up to her death three years ago she often boasted to her intimate friends that the democratic leader once acted with her. She in sisted that he, the William J. Bryan who was in her company, was the same person that sought the presi- dents chair East Lynne with Ada Gray in the lead was put out by the late Charles Watkins and Ed Boone. Bryan only remained with the con- pany about three months. The in- formant, who dces rot want his name published, says he is sure that 1t is the same William Jennings Bryan. According to the story Bryan was a very young man at the time. De- spite the fact that newspapermen and politicians have closely scrutinized the public and private life of Bryan, vet never before has there been any mention of the fact that he was on the stage as an actor at any time dur ing his career. Of course the re- publican orators and spellbinders were always ready to admit that Bryan was acting all the time.
