e
The offering at the Pantages
theater this week is largely must
cal, but it is SO well rendered as
to be thoroughly pleasing. THE
Labelle Italia" troupe beads the
bill. The company is made. up of
three men and one woman, reputed
to be direct from Naples. Their
musical education is more extern
sive than the ordinary musician APP.
pearing in Spokane possesses, and
the entertainment given by this
troupe involves various instru-
ments. Edith Stanley makes a de-
cided hith with her piano mono
logue and Sheyne & King, intro
duced as Singers of The Ghetta, =
bring down the house with their
comedy. .Bunchu and Alger have
a catching singing and dancing act
that pleases nearly all, and The
Levelles have great sensation in
wire acts, that defies many chances
for broken bones, and fairly laughs
at dangers from death. Am /
Your Wife, presented by George
Winfield & Co., is clever comedy
that brings down the house.

he will soon introduce an ordinance
providing for the compensation, of
the purchasing agent and the Gre

WASHINGTON

The bill which opened at the
Washington yesterday afternoon is
one of the most pleasing seen here
this season, each and every one of
the acts is first class. There is
nothing in the acrobatic line that
the Kitabanzai troupe have to learn
as they are about the best trained
and most finished troupe of aero
bats seen here. Their juggling and
hand balancing is also excellent,
and each one of the eight is a
thorough artist.
Then there is the musical num-

scribing text on his card. the
Rev. DiIlwynn M. Hazlett of st.
Louis passed it with a $40 bill to
Miss Eileen Adair. an auburn hair
ed chorus girl who was stranded
in New Orleans. He had received
a letter from the young woman's
father returning him the $40 and
thanking him for his kindness to a
stranger far from home.
Mr.. Hazlett is an unattached
Presbyterian minister, with a pen
chant for foreign travel and a
great admiration for Central and
South America. He has no preju-
dice against stage folk. At the
hotel where he stopped in New Or
leans was a stranded opera COM
pany. The company had gone
bankrupt. and most of the mem
bers were without funds. On re-
turing home from New Orleans Mr..
Hazlett mentioned that he had lent
a chorus girl money, and some of
his friends predicted that he would
never see it again.

act that is laugh Creating from
start to finish.
The act presented by Bradlee

cal situations and is one continual
laugh. Mr.. Martin, as the father
who is determined to marry his son

and enacts his part to perfection.
Miss Courtney, as Jessie, who is
determined to marry Jack, is very
charming in the character.
Billy Clarke. the old time min

number on this excellent bill. He

at $4,000. 1t is believed the treas
