NOVELTY PROMISED AT
NATIONAL THEATER
Every Act to Be Interesting
and New Is the Promise

BY far the most promising show the
Graumans have had so far this year is
slated to open at the National theater
this afternoon. An abundance of COM
edy will be found here and there on
the new bin and an exceedingly likely
vaudeville performance is bound to re-
suit.
Frank Bacon. formerly of the Alcazar
stock company. is to appear in the
feature act Mr. Bacon, supported by
his daughter, Bessie. and a good COM
pany, is to present AN Easy LIAR" a
tabloid farce comedy in which the star
has his best chance. to show his versa :
tility as a character comedian. This
sketch, by the way. has proved de-
cided laughing success over the Ma
tional circuit
Other good comedy acts will be sup
piled by Seymour and Hill, a clever
and lively pair of eccentric acrobats,
and Slater Brockman, a youthful char
acter change artist, who comes highly
recommended as one of Americas fore
most juvenile fun makers. Onaip, who
admits that he is the greatest hypno-
fist in the world, may also be expected
to win many a laugh, as most of his
psychic stunts are of the comedy sort.
The Ramsey sisters. merry musical
misses; the four educated high school
horses. and the five Nelson's in an
acrobatic sensation complete the bill.

success achieved by Florence Roberts

cided the management to retain the
play for another week. The attend
ance throughout last week was large
at every performance. and even stand
ing room was at premium at some
of the performances.
OF the members of the Alcazar COM

mention should be made of Ernest

former as the unfortunate Flamant
and the latter as Cesaire.
The staging of the play is up TO Al

Makerenko Troupe of Singers
and Dancers Head the Bill

There will be an abundance of di-
version to the new bill which will be
seen for the first time this afternoon
at the Wigwam. The popular vaude-
vile theater has brought from the east
an all star list of names. There is sure
to be great enthusiasm when the Max
erenko troupe of eight singers and
dancers offer their act. The double
quartet of foreigners is said to present
an especially attractive vaudeville fea-
ture. The costuming is said to be es-
pecially elaborate.
The sensational Bards, four in num-
Der, will make their first appearance at
the Wigwam today in an act of aero
battles which brings them the highest
salary of any people in their line of
work before the public.
The Torleys are to offer their trick
bicycle act in which they have ap-
peared as headliners at nearly all of the
principal eastern vaudeville houses
since they came from Europe. Fun is
assured when the Faust. brothers ap-

CHUTES TURNSTILE
TO CLICK MfRRILY
New Amusement Park in Fill
more Street Will Be
Opened This Week

Amusement lovers are looking for
ward to the opening of the new FIJI
more street Chutes, which is to UNI
lock its turnstile for the first time next
Wednesday. Many surprises are prom
ised All of the many attractions
from band to dare devil riders are be-
ing brought from the east, and each
is a headliner in its particular class.
Exceptional for the daring which
enters into his work will be the act of
Desperate, a high diver of eastern
fame. The usual diver leaps into
water, but Desperados fall is broken
by the mouth of a wooden chute, which
he strikes with his chest, and along
which he is projected at terrific speed.
AS much of an acrobat as the pro-
grammed tuInblers. and premier must
clan as well, is Signor Giuseppi Sirig-
nano, conductor of the Royal Banda
Roma, which is to be the principal
musical attraction at Wednesdays
opening. The band was imported from
Italy by the management of the New
York Hippodrome and is being brought
Coney island. 1t is said to be one
of the finest bands now before the
public. Sirignano is a conductor of
the gymnastic type. He leads with
more gyrations than the realistic
creatore, and it is said, seems to be
in all portions of the bandstand at
once. With all his antics, which are
as interesting to auditors as the music
itself, Sirignano is placed in the fore
most rank of bandmasters. He brings
with him Nine. Ermin Arnolde, soprano
soloist.
Demon, in his ride through flames,
which takes him down the chute into
the lake, promises sensation He
strides fiery bicycle in his career
down the incline, which is eXtinguished
by the plunge into the water. Demon
will perform twice during the evening
and once each afternoon. Another
number on Wednesdays bill will be
that of Florence Spray, who claims to
be Europes greatest lady high diver.
Dressed in pretty costumes she will
leap from a high tower into a tank of
shallow water.

BROAD FARCE AT
VALENCIA THEATER
"Mrs. Temples Telegram" Will
Be Given a Capital
Performance

The last performances OF Broad
bursts hilarious farce, What Hap
pened to Jones" will take place at the
Valencia theater this afternoon and
evening. Mrs Temples Telegram .
another farce of the most enjoyable
kind, win be presented tomorrow night.
Produced originally at the Madison
Square theater with east inclusive
of Frank worthing- William Morris
and Thomas Wise. Mrs Temples Tele-
gram was the big farce hit of three
years ago. and has continued to be a
popular classic Of fun
The telegram around which the play
revolves is one sent by Mrs. Temple
TO an address in a London suburb
given by her husband. when questioned
by his wife as that of his resting place
Of the night before. Naturally she de-
sires TO know where Mr.. Temple has
been and it happens that Ire can not
answer truthfully without inviting a
row. The fact is that he has been UP
in q Ferris wheel. which has refused
to revolve. and has left him hanging
between earth and sky the whole night
long. The predicafnent in itself might
not be an unexplainable one, We're it
not that there was another occupant
OF the car-another lady-and Mrs.
Temple is of a jealous temperament.
Inyenting, then. an address, he tells
his wife that he has spent the night
there. and gives what he believes is a
plausible excuse. Mrs. Temple tele-
graphs to the address for confirma-
ton. and singularly enough it proves
that at that very place lives man of
the name Temple has coined to fit his
predicament. This man has wife also,
and so has Fuller, close friend of
Temple, who attempts to straighten
things out for him. The plot thickens
when il appears that the lady in the
Ferris wheel with Temple is Fullers
wife, and the stangle in which these
three couples find themselves enmeshed
is more highly wound with each step any
one of them takes. Wigson, a high and
mighty butler, helps the trouble along
at all stages, and the love affairs of
Captain Sharpe and Dorothy, Temple S
sister, are brought into the mixup with
disastrous results.
Paul McAllister, who has proven to
be a capital comedian, will have a
strenuous role as Jack Temple; Robert
Romans will play the friend in need
Frank Fuller; George Osbourne will be
the butler, Charles Dow Clark will
level in the role Of John Brown; Grace
Travers, Edith Lyle, Peggy Monroe
Lillian Andrews and other members OF
the Valencia company will be appro-
priately cast. Too Much Johnson" will

New Hotel Opened.

The new Commercial Hotel
was opened to the public Tues
day by Mr.. and Mrs. Eastman
and bids fair to soon enjoy a nice
patronage. The, Commercial is a
new building, nicely finished
throughout, newly furnished and
fitted up and is in good shape to
provide its patrons with the best
of service. 1t has secured a
French cook and will employ
none but white help, it being the
aim of the proprietor to make it
one of the best hotels in the
country. 1t is located just a
block from the depot and will nc
doubt catch much of the tran
sient trade because of this loca.
ton.
The opening Of the new hote
gives Cottonwood two fine new
hostelries, the Phoenix Hote
having been opened less than {
year ago, and our city is now il
shape to handle the travelling
public to as good advantage a
any town of its size in this par
of the state.
