At THE MURRAY.

When one stops to consider the
woes and worries of the man who has
to direct a big vaudeville circuit it
is not to be wondered at that he fire.
quently pads out with some of the
inane acts that periodically crop out.
1t is therefore a pleasing surprise to
have a bill of such excellence as that
which was sprung at the Murray.
A better acrobatic act than that Of
the eight Bedouin Arabs was never
seen on the local vaudeville stage and
it would not be exaggerating very
much to say that there are none as
good. The exhibitions of the strength,
the enders of pyramid building, the
spinning, whirling somersault feats OF
these 1.-THE, agile, muscular fellows de-
serve the eXtravagant vocabulary Of
a circus press agent to do them JUS
tice. They are such even as to make
the palms of the most passe itch with
the desire to applaud. But best of
all is the spirit with which they work.
There is such heartiness of will,
such an air of enjoying the thing for
it's own sake that one is almost led
to imagine himself transported into
the midst of an Arabian desert where
he has stumbled upon the sports of
group of its untamed deizens.

In his book MY LIES Pilgrimage"
Thomas Calling gives an interesting
glimpse Of Gladstone in the Midlo-

happened to meet an organist
from Edinburgh. who told me that In

Gladstone soothed and steadied him
self with music. Having arranged a
time for the organ practice. he was
provided with key. by means of
which he could enter the church quite

the stage with the body of a dog and

minutes Of extemporaneous dialogue
and laughter by the actors, while Mr..
Byron ran into his dressing room and
changed.
