A remarkable thing about Mr.. Dix

sational some of the scenes may seem,
they are all founded upon historical
incidents. The hero of the play, John

AT the Majestic.

Among the big troupe" acts now
playing high class vaudeville none has
won higher praise in the larger cities
than the company producing Buster
Brown and his Famous Dog Tige," un-
der the direction of Lamar & Gabriel,
which will be the headliner at the
Majestic next week. There are seven
people in this act including Master
George Phelps, who plays the role of
Buster, and Phil Dwyer, who imper-
sonates the dog Tige. This big act is
teeming with mirth and merriment
and it is declared to be a tabloid edi-
tion of the musical play now touring
the country. A treat is in store for
both old and young in this big attrac-
ton at the Majestic. Every afternoon
following the performance Buster will
hold a reception on the stage when all
ladies and children in the audience
are invited to meet the much cartoon
ed youngster. In addition to this big
act other exceptional features will be

Another of the Dixon whirlwind
successes, 1.-The Traitor" a dramatic
sequel to ''The Clansman," will be seen
at the Grand next Thursday matinee
and night. It is seldom that a play
is an instantaneous success, but a
triumphal tour of 1.-The Traitor" was
assured after the opening perform
ance at Norfolk, Virginia. Dramatic
ally speaking it is considered superior
to Mr.. Dixon's first play of the re-
construction era, for in this play he
had the collaboration of Charming
Pollock, one of the most successful
of the younger generation of play
wrights. Those who have enjoyed the
novel on which the play is based, will
find many startling surprises in the
dramatic development of the play. The
third act. which is unusually full of
dramatic episodes, is nearly all a new
creation. The play is not only a pow
erful picture of those dark days when
