to the forthcoming engagement OF Al

been working out what has become
known as THE Newer Burlesque." The
determination is to absolutely eliminate
all Of the Objectionable features OF
this form Of amusement. making II ap-
peal to the better element of theatre
goers.
In the organization of his companies
during the past three or four seasons
Mr.. Reeves has been gradually leading
up to this desirable condition, and he
now comes forward with the specific
announcement that his Beauty Show
has reached h point where clean
wholesome amusement has been at
tanned. He has assembled an unusual
ly good company of clever come ians
and singers and speciality performers

and costume equipment which, 1t is
said, will compare f~avorably with that
