TEMPLE.

Comedy and music feature this
weeks bill in the Temple theater.
Much OF the comedy and singing is
furnished by the headliner. Emma
Carus, comic and light opera star for
u number of years. but she had strong
rivals in the three Kuhns, in musical
comedy numbers. The latter, two
playing guitars and the third burles-
Quing with big bass viol most OF the
time, got an ovation when they ap-
peared and were showered with APP
plause on the conclusion of each selec-
ton. They were called on for series
OF encores. Besides their instrument
al music, they did some singing of
a meritorious character.
Miss Carus, plump and vivacious,
displayed a brand of conversational
comedy which made her popular with
the big audience. Her singing also
found much favor. IL was OF a
catchy, tuneful variety and she soon
had the boys in the gallery whistling
the refrain.
Ii is four years since Miss Carus
has been seen here in vaudeville. Up
to a short time ago she was with Ed
Broadway" which proved a big sue
cess. That she has lost none of her
ability as singing coincidence was
demonstrated by her efforts in the
initial performance in the Temple,
Monday afternoon.
Fun for the children and grown
ups, too, is provided by Wormwoods
animal circus, in which trained dogs
and monkeys perform. The dogs
waltz, cakewalk and do acrobatic
stunts, while the monks" ride bicy-
cles with all the agility and intelli-
gence of human beings.
Some excellent clogging and other
varieties Of dancing are offered by
the six Stylish Steppers," four young
men and two girls
