this HEADLINER'S
lines BEAUTIFUL
Miss Annette Kellermann, Boast
of Orpheum, Will Display
Grace in Diving


Swimming ought to get an impetus
with the coming TO San Francisco to-
day of Miss Annette Kenermann, ''the
perfect woman Miss keIIermann will
fill a double role at the Orpheum.
where she makes her initial appear
ance at the matinee this afternoon.
Not only will she do a difficult diving
act. which is guaranteed to make the
audiences combined hairs curl with
apprehension. but she will also appear
on the program as the most perfect
physical specimen of womanhood. She
is not only the headliner on the bill.
but has every other line of perfection
as well.
Miss Kellermann won her first swim
ming honors in Australia. where she
swan as fast and as far as the dimen-
sions of Australasia would permit.
Then she went to Europe and became
the only woman ever to try to swim
the English channel. Miss Kellermann
battled with the currents for-101. hours
and only gave up the struggle at the
urging of her friends, who were fol-
lowing her in a tug. Her act at the
Orpheum will consist of a rapid game
of diabolo and several graceful and
hazardous dives into the small tank in
full glare of the spotlights.
The tank into which she dives is 10
feet long, 10 feet wide and feet deep.
Her most famous dive is the Austria
liam sploSh.
Clifford and Burke, who also open
at the Orpheum on Sunday. are negro
minstrels with funny songs and dia-
logue that are very entertaining. The
four Cliftons. also known as the -four
Hercules" are famous European stron g
men who do some unusual acts in
equilibrium.
Harry Atkinson is expected TO be
one of the features of the bill. He
initiates every musical instrument ever
invented.
OF the popular features of last week
there are retained at the Orpheum
James Thornton, the Imperial Musi-
clans, Professor Apdale's zoo circus and
Edwards Davis and company in his
version of Wilde's novel, ''The Picture
of Dorian Gray" The motion pictures
will prove interesting, it is promised.

'ANTI-MATRIMONY
ONE WEEK MORE
Miss Henrietta Crosman Will
Continue Witty Satire at
Columbia Theater

Miss Henrietta Crosman and her
company viii conclude this week their
engagement in Percy MacKaye's COM
edy, ''Anti-Matrimony," an amusing
satire on the morbid drama. The first
week of the play aroused much inter-
est among play goers. for not only is
the comedy bright and its situations
farcically funny, but as it hits humor-
ously at a development in the modern
drama, particularly in the plays of
Ibsen, and hiss cult. play goers find an
added interest in the piece.
Miss Crosman in the play is the
wife of a minister in Massachusetts,
town. Into her husbands family come
his brother and her sister, home from
Europe with the startling intelligence
that they have not been married. To
add emphasis to their declaration they
bring with them their baby. 1t takes
the wit of Mildred Miss Crosman) to
solve the domestic difficulties which
threaten to engulf the ministerial fam
lily.
Assisting Miss Crosman is a compe-
tent company of players. Gordon John
stone appears as Morris. the modern
ized' brother, and plays his affected
part in an amusing manner. Miss Grace
Carlyle, as Isabelle, the woman with
the advanced ideas, presents the part
skillfully. Herbert Fortier as the pro-
gressive clergyman with faith in his
brother and implicit trust in his wife's
scheme. and Miss Elizabeth Baker, as
the dfstrait mother of the two men.
give acceptable delineations of those
characters.
The solution of the complications is
based on American common sense, and
ends the play in much laughter The
play will be given every evening dur
ing the week and at Saturday matinee.
The cement closes next SUNDAY
night. "Antf-Matrimony' will be fol-
lowed by Frederic Thompson's produc-
ton of The Spendthrift," by Porter
Emerson Browne, a decided New York
success.

'ZENDA' Will BE
AT THE ALCAzAR
James K. Hackett Will Appear
in His Famous Role in
Great Love Story

Lovers of true romance can woo their
muse at the AIcazar theater during the
coming week to their hearts content.
For James K. Hackett is to play his
famous part in 1.-THE Prisoner of
Zenda," which drama Hackett has him
self described as the greatest love
story written since Romeo and Juliet
The play is a dramatization of Anthony
Hopes splendid romance.
Hackett has been identified with the
part of the brave young Englishman,,
who. for the-fove of the Princess Flavia,
assumed the part of King of Ruritana
to Illustrate the scheme of the kings
cousin, who kidnaps the real crown
prince on the eve of his coronation. 1t
was as Rudolph Rassendyl that Hack
EFT first appeared as star in San Fran
cisco about IL years ago.
The play consists of a prologue and
four acts. In the prologue, which is
set for the period of 1873, and in Lon
don, there Is disclosed a liaison between
the young wife of an English noble
man and the crown prince of the myth
ical German kingdom of Rurftana. The
husband surprises the lover and kills
him in duel. ~
The play opens $50 years later in
the kingdom of Ruritana, when the
king is about to be crowned. Ru-
dolph Rassendyl, the young English
traveller, who proves to be a descend
ant of the Iibertine prince and the reck-
less wife of century and a half be-
fore, has all the features of the reign
ing house of Ruritana and is able to
pass before the people as the king
while the king himself is being In
carcerated. The hopeless love between
the Princess Flavia, betrothed of the
king. and Rudolph adds to the beauty
of the story.
Beatrice Beck1ey will appear in the
charming role of the Princess Flavia.
Arthur Hoops, Hackett's leading man,
will play the part of Rupert of Hent-
Eau. the daring enemy of the king.
Fred j. Butler will be Colonel Sapt,
Will r. Walling will be Black Michael.
Louise Browne1l will be Antoinette, and
Catherine Calhoun will be Amelia
There will be a large number of extra
people on the stage. The production
Will be elaborate.

guished actress. appears as Vashti In

been the first time in her extensive
stage career that she will have ap-
vious parts have been those of the

Both sides made number Of errors

how to handle the sphere clearly. OF

bad showing. Little can be said in ex-
tenuation of the showing the Tars
made, despite the fact that they would
have probably lost had they played an
errorless game, as Fox was clouted
hard and in punches.
The feature Of the game was the
hard hitting of Bowen, Guiheen, Chunk

Some Baseball Talk
By HALF NELSON.

i
stockholders and everybody else con-
nected with the Richmond Baseball
Club will try and stand off for little
while and let Tom Messitt handle the
Colts as he sees fit, which. OF course.
they will not do. the prediction Is
hand ed out right now that the Colts
will have better average on June Is
,than they have now. Messitt can
handle the team and knows the game
well enough TO keep the Colts in line.
And they will be kept In line IL hands
are held off and he is allowed to
have his way.
When Lawlor was first hurt Messitt
was put at the helm OF things. but not
having been employed as manager the
owners and directors OF the club are
fearful that he may do something that
will lose game The first trip that
Messitt took as manager pro tenn. he
carried Instructions as to who should
pitch and everything else. IT proved
that the pitcher Messitt was instructed
to use was not in good form and was
batted hard Messitt didn't want TO
use him, but instructions were instruc-
tions. and the pitcher was used.
Now If the owners are going TO make
Messitt manager while Lawlor Is away
let him be manager. Don't hamper
him with Instructions. He knows Just
as much about baseball as the owners
knowledge Then after giving him
free rein. II he doesn't make good, put
somebody else on the Job. But give
him fair chance to demonstrate his
ability.
