twelfth anniversary of the birth of po-

AT CRIPPLE CREEK
BILL At ACADEMY
Offering This Week One
Full of Thrills-Old
Mining Scenes.

AT Cripple Creek" offered this week
at the Academy OF Music, is a melo-
drama of the early mining days, with
it's scenes laid in the mountains of Colo
rado. The plot centers about the evil
Vaccinations of Martin Mason, aided
and abetted by his coadjutor. Manuel
Alvarez. who Seek to lure into their
clutches an innocent Eastern girl. Belle
Gordon, who has come to Cripple Creek
In answer to an advertisement for a
governess.
In spite of their plots and counter
plots they are hopelessly "foiled' al
every turn by Joe Mayfeld, a rugged,
honest miner, who through his heroism
wins the heart and hand of the fair
governess before the fall OF the curtain
on the fourth act
Maggie Mason, the tomboy girl, and
little Tatto, her sister, share honors
equally with Joe Mason and his faithful
friend, Waketah, for first place in the
hearts of the audience. Judging from
the enthusiasm with which the play was
received last night, II will be one Of the
most popular plays Of the season at the
Academy.
The entire cast was we'll balanced, and
the villains succeeded in getting them
selves as cordially detested as the he
roes and heroines were loved.

LAUGHTER AND SONG
IN THE OLD TOWN
Montgomery and Stone Same
Irrepressible Team of
Funmakers.

That irrepressible team OF fun-makers,
Montgomery and Stone. in play which
George Ade wrote and called THE Ola
Town." are manufacturing laughs again
at the New National this week. It's
good thing some people brought along
their handkerchiefs last night. Not
that there was any weeping to do, but
because the tears came anyway
through laughter.
The President of the United States
sat in a box and wiped Iaugh-tears
from his eyes, and a great mafy other
fashionables out front-who went later
to the Charity Ball-followed suit.
1t was the second appearance OF THE
Old Town" in the Capital, but as soon
as the theater-going public walked by
and noticed the pictures of Montgomery
and Stone on the billboards things be-
gan to brighten up at the box office.
The house was crowded, and so was
the stage. for there are about fifty
chorus beauties surrounding the COM
edy pair, to say nothing of other Incl
dental characters necessary to work
out the semblance of plot which runs
through the AIDE play.
Eloise and Genevieve Reed, sisters,
and said to be real twins off stage.
play the familiar parts of nieces to the
newly-rich Mrs. Bilwether. They're in
love with a couple of adventurers-
Montgomery and Stone, of course-who
endure many vicissitudes in order to be
near the adored ones, such vicissitudes
consisting of DISCUSSES all the way from
Swedish emigrants to japanese states
men or cowboys. The Reed sisters are
vivacious, pretty, and graceful. One OF
the hits of the evening was the song
when 1 Think of You," sung with
Montgomery and Stone.
Allene Crater is still playing the part
of Mrs. Bilwether and she was well
coined, as was a number of the other
old favorites, last night. F'lossie Hope
now assumes the roles Of the Swedish
maid and she plays it well and re-
ceived an encore or so upon her dane
ing number.

MAY IRWIN MERRY
IN M|RTHFUL PLAY
Laughs Abound in Getting
a Polish" at the
Belasco.

Warning: To all those In whom the
danger OF increasing obesity arouseth
fears beware of the Belasco this week.
for there is laughter in the air there
and a hearty laugh Is near death to
him who seeketh to reduce.
This is no idle warning to those to
whom laughter Is an abomination. for
to sit through a production of Getting
a Polish" and not have the risibilities
tickled but thoroughly massaged is a
physical impossibility. For May Irwin,
fair and fat as of old. is given every op-
portunity, and when in all her career
did she ever want anything but a
chance?
Imagine her first as a widow in YeI-
low Dog, Montana, very motherly and
domesticaIly inclined. Then comes the
big strike in the mine, and persuaded
by her niece that she is a woman of
complicated nature, she leaves the little
mining town and goes abroad to get a
polish.
Next We see her in Paris with a motley
crowd of hangers-on attracted by her
wealth and generosity, mixing with
nabobs and nobility. While she has
developed from plain Mrs. Jim, Of Mon
tana, to Mrs. J. Sterling Grigg, she
has not succeeded in acquiring as much
polish as realism would demand. How
ever, we will not quarrel about that or
any other minor shortcoming. for they
all help In the laugh getting which is
the beginning and the end of the star S
efforts.
In the midst Of her social triumph,
John Blake. her husbands former
partner, appears on the scene. At first
she Is inclined to snub him, but to
bring her around the elderly Romeo
makes ardent love to her niece.
Eventually all is worked out salts
factorily after she has spent something
like quarter of a million on imaginary
stocks to make a lovable but impe-
cunious youth rich enough to marry
the niece, and after Blake has bought
off an Italian prince and an absinthe
drinking expatriate, who has "a good
solid New York name to lean on"
From beginning TO end the star is on
the stage most of the time, and almost
However. the support given her is eX-
cellent, and the other roles, while
neutral tinted to form a background,
are we'll handled.
Among those who deserve mention are
J. T. Chaillee, as the prince; Mary X.
Taylor, whose Mrs Croyden-Jones was
we'll played; Frances McGrath, who made
a charming niece: and Howard Sloat, as
the nephew. In addition there were sew
eral character parts well taken.
To those who go to the theater for
amusement pure and wholesome, and
appreciate the medicinal properties Of
hearty laughter, the attraction at the
Belasco can be heartily recommended.

MOTHER AND BABIES
PERFORM IN CIRCUS
Seven Children, Youngest
Two, Take Part in Royal
and Adams Show.

Perhap the most remarkable troupe
that ever Travelled with a circus is the
Nelson family, with the Royal & Adams
indoor circus. which Almas Temple
brings to Washington next week.
Children ranging from a little over
two years to eighteen years are a part
of the family. Tina and Rosina, the
two oldest, are tight-rope walkers. and
Oneida, aged ten, Hilda, s, and Theol,
aged four, are acrobats.
Little Estrella, aged three, is also an
acrobat in a small way, but she doesn't
attempt anything very difficult. She is
too young for that yet, but doubtless in
another two or three years she will have
attained some OF the skill that has made
the name of Nelson family known in
circus annals for over hundred years.
Carmencita, aged two. hasn't begun her
career yet. Mrs. Nelson, mother Of
these children, does a tight-wire act
with a bicycle, and their father is an
acrobat, one of the best, by the way,
in the business.
do l think that circus life is in
furious to the health of children" re-
peated Mrs. Nelson, when asked that
question. NO, indeed l do not. Look
at my healthy babies. They don't look
as though circus life was harming them
a great deal, do they?
Every one of my children have been
brought up, so to speak, in the carpet
bag out of which little Estrella is taken
in one of the acts. When she gets too
large for it, little CarmencIta will take
her place. Why very often little Es-
trella falls asleep in the carpet bag
and never SWakens till she is carried
into the ring and the lag is opened.
Then, Of course, she is wide awake,
and is ready to go on and do her little
part"
There is an old. Inwritten circus law
that as soon as a child is strong enough
to stand on his hands ne must be put
to work. 1t is also q tradition of the
circus that the name of family must
be carried on by the children and by
their children's children. That is why
we have the Nelson family today. trac-
Ing an lineage back to the famous
eighteenth century circus family OF
England.
