GLEN ECHO PARK.

Glen Echo Park, which was last night
the gathering place for a large crowd OF
amusement seekers, is now at the height
Of it's successful season and occupies
place in the foremast rank OF local sum-
mertime resorts, where the heat OF the
city may be forgotten amid picturesque
surroundings.
Interest at this popular pleasure park
tonight will center in the first prize
Waiting contest of the summer, which Is
scheduled for II O'Clock, in the pavilion.
This competition is open to all and the
choice Of a winner is to be determined
by a committee OF five judges selected
from among the spectators. The young
lady whom the judges decide the most
proficient waltzer will receive hand
some gold medal
Thursday evening will witness at Glen
Echo Park another OF the special feature
events which have been arranged by the
management as additions to the regular
evening programme. and has been
designated ''red-head night. Every
Young lady visiting the park on that
evening whose hair is red. auburn, Titan
copper-tinted, or their corollary shades
will require no other credentials to OBJ
tain admission to any Of the amuse-
ments
That moving pictures are as effective as
drawing card out OF doors as in the
downtown theater is indicated by the con-
sistently large attendance at this section
OF Glen Echo's evening programme.

THE COSMOS.

An entertaining bill of novelties is to
be seen at the Cosmos this week, headed
by the Booth trio, comedy cyclists. and
hedder and Son, head-to-hand balancers
The Booth act is one of the best of its
kind to be seen anywhere, combining
refined comedy antics with daring and
sensational feats awheel. The funny
clown rider OF the trio is among the
best in the business.
Hedder and Son, who present another
acrobatic turn, are completely different
from anything else on the bill. Their
routine consists of head-to-hand bal
ancing. and the act is marked by the
wonderfully dexterous feats OF Son,
the eigIft-year-old members OF the team,
who is really q marvellous acrobat TOT
his years. The act is among the pest
liked numbers of the bill.
The boy with the tables and chalrs'
John Reynolds, aroused much favorable
comment by his clever heavyweight bal
ancing and lightweight Juggling.
The Selsor Trio have character sing
ing. dancing. and costume change act
..Mozarto," novel musical speciality,
always playing at least two instruments
at one time, and Kitty Ross. the South
ern singing comedienne. in darky song
and monologue, complete the showing.
II is a good hot weather show-full OF
action.

AT THE THEATERS
THE COLUMBIA.
"Facfng the Music.o

If there were any remaining shadow
Of doubt that the true meter Of the CO.
lumbia Players was farce, 1t was en-
tirely dispelled by their crisp, incisive.
and cameo-like performance of that ex-
cellent fun maker, Facing the Music"
last night.
Matching the midsummer mood Of their
clientele, the company played this
piquant, insouciant comedy in a manner
which brought out its every theatrical
value. which left no possible point Of
contact with the risibles untouched, and
which conclusively proved, If proof were
necessary. that the shifting sands Of
dramatic fad and foible never destroy the
potentialities of the seasoned and we'll
rounded farce, which may mellow with
age, like wine.
The Columbia Players revealed their
true farcial fiuency in "A Texas Steer"
two weeks ago; it remained for last
nights performance to confirm it. This
they did in a fashion which brought de-
light to a large audience for the per-
formance, lacking all the rough edges of
the typical stock first night. was one
continuous succession and procession of
laughs, as it well deserved to be. No
more spontaneous success has been
SCOItu ny lHt llllS
To treat individually of the we'll bal
anced cast is a task superfiuous. A. H.
Van Buren, headed the list of fun makers
in his refreshing enactment of the other
Mr.. Smith," in which he probed to the
full every possible facet of fun. Miss
Carrie Thatcher played the curates
wife, Mabel" lightly, gracefully, and with
her customary technical proficiency; Ev-
erett Butterfield proved the best possible
foil to Mr.. Van Buren in the role of Dick
Desmond: John NJ. Kline gave a zestful,
vigorous portrayal of Col. Duncan Smith;
George w. Barber enacted the fatuous
Sergt. DuffelI to the last ounce of its
comic value: Miss Emelie Melville chap
acterized the servant, Mrs. Pointing, with
her usual skill and thOroughness; Miss
Jessie Glendinning lent her elusive charm
to the part of the actOrine, Miss FOther-
ingay, and Miss Frances Nelson played
the role of Nora, the other Mr.. Smiths
wife. in manner that left nothing to
be desired.
The infectious comedy has not required
any theatrical benzoate of soda to pre-
serve it through the years which have
passed since II carried Henry E. Dixey
on a trail of fun and fortune over the
land. 1t is as good now as ever despite its
wealth of successors. Accordingly to all
the theatrical forecasters, the Columbia
Players are going to have one of the
most successful weeks of their long
season. A. NJ J.

Has Ambitious Programme.
That the Casino Theater holds a warm
spot in the hearts of Washington vaude-
vile enthusiasts is being evidenced by
the, large number OF inquiries that are
being made daily at the box Office about
the seasons opening next Monday. Since

the interior of the popular playhouse at
Seventh and F streets and the billboards
began to take new life with Casino

the Casino for a term of three years
with option Of extension, and he is spend

Newport, r. l.. Aug. In a very
simple but practical gown of white linen
and a large Panama hat, Miss Madeleine
7. Force, who is to marry Col John
Jacob Astor, was one Of the centers of
attraction at the Newport Casino this
morning. Miss Force demonstrated that
she IS no amateur on the tennis court,
for in her match with her fiance against
Miss Beryl Kane and Lawrence l.. Gill
lespie, she gave a very good account of
herself, though Miss Force and Col. As
tor were beaten.
There was naturally a great deal OF
interest in the match. and after it was
over Miss Force spent some time with
her new friends, for she has now met
about all OF the Newport colony.
Mr.. Force returned to New York to-
day, and Mrs. Force arrived to join her
