On the bill with Princess Rajah will appear a septet of acts, each of which is well and favorably known to those who follow vaudeville, including Wa terbury Brothers and Penney. late stars of the Conan and Harris Min strels, and always considered vaude- vil,e's best musical trio; Henry Horton and company in the rural sketch, 'Un- cle Lems Dilemma; Fred Nice and John T.

POLI'S

fin connection with the appearance of Princess Rajah at the head of the Poli bill next week presenting her marvel ous Cleopatra Dance, it might just as well be understood in advance that this Egyptian girl is first, last. and all the time an artiste. She abhorS Sa- iome dances and Salomers in general. and very tersely says that dancing movements should be confined to the feet, head and arms. something that Salomers evidently do not believe in. The Cleopatra Dance as given by Rajah embodies a story and while there is no spoken word. the sinuous grace of Rajah, her powers of panto- mimicry she possesses and utilizes. the venomous stakes which she fondles and caresses and eventually allows to sink their fangs in her. weave a most Ori- ental air to the whole performance. Rajah is a stickler for thoroughness in costurning. staging, ct al.. and the au- dience will see her dances presented in a beautiful setting. with elaborate but absolutely authentic costumes and with eight girls of the Orient in pictur- eSQCe poses.

balancing stunts are quite out of the ordinary and elicit no little applause. Krusada and Job are able entertain CTS and their singing dancing sketch is well received. Dennis Mullen & Go. present a very amusing playlet entitled ''The Janitor.' It is a veritable scream from start to finish and is filled to overflowing with sparkling humor. Mullen is an exceptionally clever comedian and has a peculiar and original style. The sketch is fill- ed with comedy of very pleasing sort and abounds in grotesque situations. The picture subjects were very inter esting and were naturally of the lat est make. A brand new series will be shown today. Vaudeville will be re- sumed again next Tuesday and will be presented the remainder of the week. Manager Jackson wishes to an- nounce that he has at last completed arrangements for a return engagement for the great Volta, the electric mar vel and he will be seen here the en- tire engagement in new program of startling electrical surprises. The re- mainder of the vaudeville will be changed on Thursday.

DOUBLE MAN OF SCOTLAND.

The two-headed girl, Mile Chris
tine, was probably one of the most
extraordinary freaks of nature born
since the days of the strange crea-
ture described in the "Historia Re-
rum Scoticarum" of George Bu-
chanan. This being lived in the
reign of James III. of Scotland in
the year 1890. 1t was of the male
sex and from the waist up was
double. There we're two perfectly
formed heads, two sets of lungs, two
hearts and two pairs of arms. This
double body was supported on one
pair of legs This monstrosity was
neither repulsive nor displeasing.
On the contrary, the dual mental
equipment was so perfect that the
king engaged special tutor in lam
guages and mathematics and music.
The double man became proficient
in all of these studies and it was a
favorite royal diversion to have the
heads argue with each other on the
progress made during the days
work.
