Malta. November 2.-It is reported that the whole Italian fleet has left Tripoli 1 for Turkish waters.

ADJUSTMENTS
Miss Innocence"

Last night at the Jefferson theatre was decidedly gala night for the tired bus
 mess man. for Anna Held and large company frolicked for nearly three hours
 in Miss Innocence" one of F'lorenz Zeigfeld, Jr.'s. typical musical shows. The chorus girl lure' was exceedingly
 strong. There were short girls, long
 girls plump girls-but no very thin girls blonde girls, brunette girls, frisky 'po- nies" and statuesque show girls in be-
 wildering number, and all remarkably good looking in the aggregate. In fact.
 the enthusiastic press agent which her
 aided real beauty show was not far
 wide of the mark.
 Nor was the excellence confined to
 feminine pulchritude, displayed with con-
 siderable frankness at times, nor to
 stunning array of costumes, nor to a
 very elaborate scenic investiture. There
 was real talent in plenty. sufficient to
 keep the interest at a. high pitch all the
 time and quite enough to compensate for
 the absence of the seductive Anna when
 she was not visible.
 Still endowed with all the arts for
 which she became famous years-how
 many years?--ago, Miss Held is able
 to snap her fingers in the face of Father
 Time, as 1t were, and shines apparently
 with undimnished luster. Her stunning figure is still intact. we feel quite sure;
 she is as daring in matters sartorial as any one could reasonably expect, and she still sings a song in a way that scores of "vaudevillans' have mimmicked, but no one has ever quite equaled Miss Held is a remarkable woman in a num- Der of ways. Her name has been almost a tradition in her chosen field for more years than great many women in pri- vate life would care to count, and she is vet faultless comedenne. If the quo- tation were not so trite, one could fitly apply to her those words which W. Shakespeare applied to peerless Cleo patra who certainly would have made, according to all accounts, a stunning
 queen of musical comedy.
 There was such an abundance of meri-
 torious features in evidence during the
 performance of Miss Innocence that a full enumeration would be inadvisable. However, the enthusiastic audience which greeted Miss Held must have been pleas ingly impressed with the fact that she did not, as is so often the case, shine as lone star against a background of dis dressing mediocrity. There were other talented people in the company besides Miss Held and they were given ample opportunity to display their ability as entertainers. Harry Watson, Jr., as the l detective. proved himself very clever comedian and his fun making never miss ed fire. Ernest Watson, IT,, as cap

tain of the First Life guards. was an able second, with a capital English ac- cent and some ability as a dancer.
 Grace Leigh, who led some of the most roundly applauded song numbers, has a sparkling personality and a smife that works wonders. Her vivacity and beauty were conspicuous. Ethel Kelley, graceful and extremely active dancer, was another important member Of inc company and Sarah Edwards as Mrs. Sniffkins, was very grotesque.
 The stage pictures presented were at times captivating both in their concep- ton and their execution, although once or twice the stage hands got behind with the drop pieces. The typically Parlsian cafe scene, in which the display of gowns was dazzling and the musical numbers have a champagne effect seemed to make a great hit. The Yankee Rag as sung by Miss Leigh and the chorus was rat tling good number and Miss Held of course was warmly received in all her vocal efforts, not to speak of her gowns. q Want Something New to Play With" T Wonder Whats the Matter With My Eyes," "A Lesson in Kissing, Up in My Aeroplane,' and Don't You Hear Those Bells" were some of the best num- bers, admira bly staged throughout
 Oh; yes; there was some sort of plot which had to do with the experiences of q simple little convent girl, who was Miss Held, but it was small matter and didn't really interfere with the 'Joy of life" that prevailed at all times.
 Miss Tnnocence' is highly effervescent and inebriatng, but the aftermath is not painful. On the contrary, it is most pleasant memory.
