Now what do you know about
that If we give our candid opinion,
we lose three friends, and if we
don't, our reputation as a dramatic
critic will be lost forever.
Previous to the receipt of the let
ter we were ignorant of the fact
that any of our local celebrities en-
tertained aspirations of some day
being mentioned as head liners.
And to be candid, we are of the
opinion that the would-be thespians
will be content to remain at homa
and assist with the family washing
on Mondays. 'Tis true that they
have talent, but we are not mention

as manufacturing mulligans and hot

the Princess. as previously announced.
The clever musical comedy will there
fore not be presented until next Thurs
day night. The Politicians" now run
ming, will continue to be the bill up to
and including next Wednesday night.
This entertaining musical comedy

first produced at Waflack's, New York,
and was the vehicle whereby Sam Ber-
nard won his starship. 1t ran for an
entire season.
At the Princess C. William Kolb will
assume the role of the eccentric mil
lionaire who is burdened with an over
plus of coin. The part fits Kolb ideally.
and it ought to prove the greatest
Characterization of his career.
Dill will be a German baron who is
temporarily financially embarrassed.
This part was an English chappie in
the original production, but it has been
rebuilt to it the inimitable Dill. Maude
Lillian Berri, the popular prima donna,
will have the role of Flora Fair, an
actress. played in New York by Georgia
Caine.

popular locally. Miss Harris is pretty.

and dancing abilities. The other clever
members of the company will be well
cast. Percy Bronson will have a part
as Guy, the impetuous son of Hoggen-
heimer and Sydney de Grey, Carlton
Chase, Charles Swickard, Bud Duncan,
Harris Mcclure and the other favorites
will help the fun along. The pretty
maids of the chorus will be in even
greater evidence than usual, and some
clever dancing speeialties have been
arranged for them.
The Rich Mr.. Hoggenheimery has
the reputation of possessing as humor-
Gus plot and as witty lines as any
modern musical comedy.
The Rich Mr. Hoggenheimer' Will
be presented on most elaborate scale.
In fact, it will be the most ambitious
production that Kolb and Dill have
given. The scenery. costumes and me-
chanica1 effects will be unusually
striking. -s

BIG HIT IS MADE
By THREE TWINS"
Bessie, Clifford as Yama Girl
and Morley as Twin" at
the Garrick

San Francisco has Joined the eastern
cities in praise of The Three Twins"
which remains for this week the big
hit at the Garrick theater.
The Three Twins" deserves all that
has been said and. written about it, for
not for a moment does the comedy lag.
nor does the .tuneful music halt, Of
course the big song hits are the
'Cuddle Up a Little Closer, Lovey
Mine" song, as rendered by Minnie
Allen and the chorus, aided by the most
wonderful electrical effects that have
ever been devised and the "Yama Yama
Man." danced and sung by Bessie Cliff
ford. This unique number takes a
dozen or more encores every night, and
the dainty Bessie has proved herself
one of the best dancers yet seen in
San Francisco.
Victor Morley is the most natural of
comedians, his methods are far removed
from buffoonery. He is the essence of
refinement and his quiet. sure reading
of the witty lines keeps his auditors in
gales of laughter.
Beautiful costumes, electrical effects
and a real chorus, zone that sings,
dances and is pretty, are other ele-
ments in the big success of Three
Twins
Mile. Pertina, at the head of a big
company, will present another big New
York success at the Garrick following
"Three Twins The Soul Kiss" was
the rage in the metropolis last year and
will probably duplicate that success
here.

signs when spoken to, and in fact does
everything but talk.
Manager Tiffany guarantees that the
enormous expense represented by the
engagement of Consul Jr. will not pre-
vent the Pantages theater in Sutter
street from presenting an unusually
excellent bill throughout. There will
be the Wilson -Franklyn company in Il
