FUN AND FROlIC FEATURED
AT pROCTOR'S THIS WEEK.

One of the hottest things being pulled
off this week at Proctor's Theatre is a
wig. 1t is a red wig and 1t adorns what
looks Ikea ~16-year-old youth from the
Emerald Isle, clad in a very fetching
suit of emerald clothes. Any Irlshman
who wears a red wig above a green suit
deserves to be shown UP. That's what
this young 90 a. gets. 1t happens in
the corking-good, comedy-acrobatic act
of Cunningham and Marion. No, dear
reader, this cunning act is not the
headliner; it is Just one of h good
numbers that 60 to make up a good bill.
And Back to wellington is back in
Newark, this week. Hist, this sketch,
with Howard and North as the bright,
particular stars, is the headliner. And
it is q good headliner. too. IT'S a SIM
pie country tale, with a homely moral,
and it has been seen in Newark before.
But that does not detract one iota from
its charm, or its wholesomeness, or the
lesson 1t teaches, or its clean, Clever
comedy. Howard and North know their
parts. and right yell they act them.
The plot of the piece is a simple,
familiar rural story. They were boys
together in a country hamlet. even as
many of us were. And one of them
went to the city and became rich. even
as some of us did, while the other re-
manned at home and pursued the even
tenor of his ways, even as too few OF
the boys born on the farm are doing
today. The City Chap comes back to
the old town. His old chum meets him.
They talk things over. And it as
though we were with them in the little
town %chuckiing owe h village gossip.
One can almost smell the scent of new
mown hay, which is some stunt in Feb
ruary. Yes, it's a simple little piece,
but it has a charm that never grows
old.
And second on the bill are the Eight
Original Madcaps. And these eight
original madcaps are some madcaps.
They're all pretty maidens and there is
something doing in the line of wild,
rollicking, frollicking fun every minute
of the twenty they are or the stage.
They are busy little, pretty little, cute
little girlies.
Another ought-to-be headliner is emit
tied "The Girl and the Pearl" 1t is
down on the bill as a musical Irritation.
and It is some Irritation. Wilbur Mack
and Miss Nella Walker do the flirting
They do It artistically, too. Songs, or
iginal ones, by Mr.. Mack are intro
duced. High-class ~repartee Is e. feature
Of the oct.
Another real feature OF the biif is
Miss Beatrice Morgan, formerly leading
lady Of the Proctor's Stock Company In
New York who, with a company Of
three. gives a rafting piaylet entitled
"Just Dropped IN" The dfvorcee II
the a 8 drops in or her e~x-husband via
the skyfight route. A policeman recon-
oiies them. IT'S o good act and cleyer

AL REEvES'S BURLESQUERS
MAKE HIT AT WALDMANN'S.

Big AL Reeves, with his big Twelve
carat diamonds, scored a hit at Valid
mann's Opera House last night, and
the boys gave him credit"
During the burlettas Andy evil
with his bright, breezy race-track
slang, kept the audience in a constant
roar. and well deserved the repeated
POUNDS that showed the appreciation of
the audience.
OF the olio, the Busch Devere -Four
deserves particular mention, and Billy
Busch's cornet solos are worth the price
Of admission alone. The act combines
cornet and vocal music, scenes OF
travel, illustrated songs and q splendid
recitation.
Idyfla Vyner n Marie Brandon
danced themselves into the hearts o.
the audience, and will probably remain
there for a long time to come.

scorned as %low-born, is not SO bad after
all. She Is deeply distressed because
of his determination to fight a duel
with her avowed sutton, Sir EdWaro'
we'll knowing that the latter had never
missed his man, while the former nao
never hit anything. But the duel takes
place, and q jewel of a duel 1t Is, with
most bloodthirsty appearing guns n
the knees of one participant wooollng
violently and visibly, and the hero
but that ends the play.
Not for many years has Mr.. Olcott
been better equipped with a charming
play, a congenial part, with op~portunl-
ties for fun of a whimsical order, gooo
music and a strong supporting COM
pany to which latter much OF the
artistic success of the production IS
due. The hilarity lies in the business
as we'll as in the lines, and to this fact
the principals in the cast are keenly
alive, introducing much that Is far-
cical, as In the barber shop, where
Michael McShane practises crystal
reading on the side.
Sharing honors with the star is Miss
Nesta De Becker, who. as the impudent
youth Phadeig, quickly established her
self In the graces of an audience which
chortled sympathetically with her in
fectious glee, always %bubbling near to
the surface, and frequently splitting
over. To the confidence of buoyant
youth and sprightly personality she
adds a quick perception of the comic
and a ready sympathy.
Miss Mary tombstone was a convinc-
ing mother, whose love for her rollick-
ing son is her n great passion, ready
to forgive his pranks and loath to share
his heart with a younger rival.
Tenderness and n Delicious Drogue.
She played the part with greatest
tenderness, and a delicious brogue.
Lady Mary Bannon was a captivating
heroine, as portrayed by Miss Brown
ing, and was as whimsical II capri
cious as Irish maid of high degree
could be, yet in the end following, as
most maids do, where her hea1t led,
throwing high station to Its rightful
destiny-the scattering winds.
Mr.. Reardon injected much farcical
humor into his delineation of Barber
McShane, jumping in a moment from
the doddering semi-decrepit crystal
gazer to the agile wholly ridiculous
barber, dentist and all-round sawbones.
The other parts were filled acceptably,
The setting does credit to the taste ana
demand of Augustus Pitou, under
whose direct supervision the play Is
staged, and the pictures are completed
by the elaborate costumes. An enlarged
orchestra, under careful leadership,
adds the final touch of color.

Pugilism, the practice of boxing or

art and exercise highly esteemed
among the ancients. In those days the
hands of the pugiIist were armed with

lead or iron This form of athletic
sport was at first only permitted to
freemen among the Greeks. but grad

and lost much of its prestige.
