GRAND OPERA HOUSE

At the Grand Opera House this week the
list Of features IS impressive. abounding
with metropolitan success and high-class
novelties Of just the sort which should
make an ideal vaudeville entertainment,
with uproarous comedy and catchy music
predominating. There is an unusual array
of headliners and the prediction Is made
that the performance from end to end will
prove a continuous succession Of hits.
The feature OF primary importance OF
course Is the Watson, Hutchines and Ed
wards Company in their triumphantly sue
cessful farcical skit, 'srhe Vaudeville Tx
change" which has for several seasons
been an exceptional comedy feature OF the
leading vaudeville theatres, and last week
topped the bin at the American Music
Hail. New York city. This company OF
farcical comedians is quito generally con-
cedcd TO be one Of the best and most ef-
hcient comedy organizations in the ranks
OF present day vaudeville. The offering ia
expected to create comedy furore here.
Under the personal direction Of Bailey
and Austin comes those mirth provoking,
American Beauties" the Austin Brothers,
who are this season presenting an eccen-
trio comedy speciality which has the record
for crowding as many hearty laughs into
fifteen minutes as a dozen other comedians
usually are able to do in twice that time
Outlandishly funny eccentric dancing
travesty songs and snappy dialogue arc
happily blended by them in such a nonsen.
sical way as to keep their audience IN an
almost continuous convulsion Of laughter
There arc in yaudevlIlc all kinds anf
conditions OF comedians and dancers. and
innumerabie varieties Of acrobats and
tumblers, but the opportunity is not otter
afforded to see a team possessing th'
versatility along these lines equal TO smir
and Kessner. in the presentation Of the
thoroughly enjoyable variety skit entitled
"The Bell Boy and the Maid" and the'
are sure to pull down one OF the hits o
/ the show.
Marshall Montgomery has hit upon
new and novel idea for presenting hi
comedy ventriloquil and musical talent b!
/ devising a speciality which has quickl.
placed him in the very first rank OF sing
entertainers. Trick plano playing and ven
triloQuism is an odd combination, but thi
clever comedian Is an adept at both.
Fay Grismer. the dramatic soprano. VIII
has been creating so much favorable CON
ment IN New York and other large citle
with her high-elsss song Illustration

bill. The Bijougraph Motion Picture

HANDICAPPED BY MILLIONS.
II the little lad at your knee should
inherit S4.0Oo.ooo In money. would you
be glad or sorry?
Think the proposition over carefully
before you answer.
That large sum has been left by
his great-uncle TO Hunt T. Dickeuson
OF Augusta, Ga.
And young Dickinson is but nine
years old.
Judged by what he says, the father
OF this boy is really sorry his son
should have inherited S4,000OOO. He
fears the effect Of 1t on the boys fu-
ture.
Mr.. Dickenson says he viii keep the
news OF his Inheritance from Hunt as
long as possible.
Says this anxious father:
''That is enough money to ruin any
boy. do not want my boy to grow
up feeling that he need never work-a
false idea. want him TO be a plain.
honest man. i want him to do some
OF the worlds work and learn that the
greatest comfort IN life is TO know
that one has done something to make
the world better"
Wise Mr.. Dickensonl
He knows that much money is more
apt TO be a curse than n blessing.
II Hunt Dickinson grows up TO feel
that whatever happens TO other peo-
pie he Is sure Of plenty without ef-
fort. he may put himself up ON a
pedestal and come to feel that he is
different from those that toll.
Even should he resist the temptation
to squander his money in riotous liv-
ing he may come TO think that he is
nodded of different putty from the or
dlnary men.
And that would make him cold and
hard and selfish.
He would come to believe that he Is
in the world to be ministered 70 rather
than TO minister-that he is here TO get
what be thinks is coming TO him rath.
er than to give the world what is com.
ing to it.
lie would lose all touch with his
fellows.
Is there any wonder why Mr.. Dick
enson should dread the influence OF
those millions on bis sons career?
A boy thus handicapped has no fall
chance with the poor boy who mus
fight his way up to success, keeping
elbow touch with the world, making
himself strong by earning what hl
gets, developing his character and
making himself a useful citizen.
Mr.. Dickenson may well fear the in
cubus OF 100000 on the shoulder
OF his son.
