At the Princess.

Today a splendid bill is arranged
 to hold the boards at the Princess
 theater for the. last Of the week. One
 of the strongest lis yet had at the
 House of Quality Jacobs and Sar- dell, said to be as good an act of its kind as any that have been seen here; Ithe famous Bowery trio, known far
 and wide as one of the best trios
 ever played vandevile McCarty and
 Major, in their laughable sketch en- titled "On Account of a Count" one of the funniest creations; the great | Wiman. a violinst of renown and touring the country, and Seymour and Robinson, the eccentric comedians in The Minx and the Mixer.' This team
 was to have been seen here earlier in the season. but Mr. Robinson was taken i'll at that time, and all his southern tour had to be cancelled.
 This Is an exceptional show, opening today at matinee at 230, and twice
 again tonight. The Kinodrome pie
 lures are carefully selected. and are always the best.
 Many new vaudeville theaters are opening up on the Princess circuit.
 and the same win have an effect to
 bring the best in European and Amer ican vaudeville here at the very doors
 of the Hot Springs people and same given them for the small price of ad- mission, where in New York and Chi
 cago one will pay twice as much, and
 many times not see as good show. The Princess theater is comfortable, sanitary, elegant and safe. The best
 of the safe feature is that it is the
 safest theater in the south. bar none,
 there being as many as eighteen exits. and all in perfect working order. So if you wish to enjoy yourself and all for the small price the Princess is the theater to go to.
 We make a special feature catering to ladies and children on our matt nees. The price on these matinees are
 10 and 9 cents.
