"The Girls From Dixie" is the at
traction this week in the Avenue thea
ter, where the company opened Sun
day afternoon before a large and
demonstrative audience. The com
pany is headed by Adams and Guhl,
who are the leading comedians. Both
performers are clever enough, but
their efforts probably would have a
more telling effect II they were not
forced TO work with such ancient ma
terial.
The hit Of the show is a musical act
by Frank Thorndike, assisted by
Jacque Ford and Grace Golden. They
render a variety OF popular melodies
In pleasing fashion.
Karl Lang is a very clever dancer
and Miss Ford makes hit with q neat
singing act. Marion and Thompson
struck popular note with limitations
OF army bugle and trumpet calls.
Two burlesques, both OF which are
rather shopworn, sandwiched the olio.
A numerous chorus was given plenty
OF opportunity to display its talents.
The Dixie Girls will be in the Ave
nue. all week, with daily matinees.
A company of Yiddish actors gave
a performance, Sunday evening. In
the Garrick theater, Of Joseph In
Egypt" before large and highly-ap-
preciative audience. The role Of 10
seph was taken by Nine. F. Rhein-
hart. The story OF the play follow
ed Biblical incidents Of Joseph's life
from the moment he was sold into
bondage by his brothers. The com
pany gave adequate support to Nine
Rheinhart. and the several scenes o.
the drama were deliberately staged.

THE STAGE
LYcEUM.

A pleasing revival of B. c. Whit
ney's former success. "A Broken
Idol" is the attraction In the Lyceum
theater this week. The piece Is we'll
staged by Gus Sohlke, the music Is
tuneful and sprightly and there are
many happy surprises In the way OF
spectacular affects. There Ia added In
terest for Detroit playgoers In the
fact that Hal Stephens, a Detroiter,
wrote the book. The lyrics and airs
are by that wellknown team, VIII
liams and Van Alstyne. The cast, al
so, includes some local talent. Miss
Grace Lampe, who leads the feminine
contingent In the character OF Marion
Pugsley, claims this city as her home,
as does Earle Dewey, who plays an i'm
portant part In the story as Jack Ma
son, a newspaper man.
There is q lot of good fun as well
as good music In "A Broken Idol.
Some extremely ludicrous situations
are developed and the comedy
roles are In good hands. In this
respect honors were about evenly
divided between Jack West, as j. Ely
Muddleford, d. T., Yin search OF bugs
and Nat Phillips. as DOC" Whatt.
West reminds one somewhat or Lew
Kelly, as Prof. Dope In one OF the
Ward & vokes shows Of recent mem
DRY. His makeup In in itself SUFFICIENT
to keep the audience in good humor,
and he has a way Of handling his legs
that Is provocative Of violent hilarity.
Nat Phillips is equally funny In q
quieter way.
Scattered through the two acts are
number of musical gems, though
the chorus does not do full pustice
to all of them. The big hit OF the
piece is the song. Love Makes the
World Go Round" which brought
demands for several encores from
Sundays audiences.
One Of the spectacular features
that 10 quite effective 10 the balloon
flight of Miss Lampe out over the
heads OF the audience In q darkened
house, the balloon and Its fair pas
senger being the only object visible.

LAFAYE TTE.

But for q little Swedish girl and
rah-rah boy who Is cleverer than ne
looks. "the County Sheriff would get
Il literally in the neck with piece
of rope on the stage Of the Lafayette
this week In the play OF which his Is
the title role. Likewise, these two
semi-comedy characters save the play
from being very dull, because the plot
Is transparent and the dialogue drags.
The county sheriff has the task OF
cleaning up the cattle rustlers In
North Dakota, and discovers evidence
indicating that the king OF the rust
lers Is Thomas Dayton, owner OF Dig
cattle ranch. Dayton has married
young Swedish woman, who finds that
she has been badly deceived, and Is
attracted to the manly young sheriff
Dayton weaves a web OF circumstances
around the sheriff, with view to get
ting him out OF the way TO prevent
his revealing q former and more seri-
Gus crime. About this time Tuesday
Paulson, Mrs. Dayton's sister, comes
over from Sweden, having arrived on
the same boat with the sherif's col
lege nephew, and the two lend their
wits to Strengthening out the Difficult
ties and livening up the play. IL takes
three strenuous acts before the tide be-
gins to turn I'm the direction OF virtue.
Next week the Crippen case VIII be
perpetuated in a play called Tracked

PARLIAMENTARY TANGLE
 OVER EXTRA SESSION VOTE But State Legislature Votes to Indefi-
 niteIy Postpone Action.
. s(Special to The Bulletin.)

s(Special to The Bulletin.)
 Hartford Feb 23-There was little doing at the big gray building on Cap itol Hill Thursday, when the legislators got back to business after recess over the holiday. What little business was on the caIendar-none of it important was quickly disposed of and both the senate and house were adjourned until this morning soon after the noon hour. The committees were as busy as usual during the afternoon, however main tafning the commendab1e expedition with which they are listing and dis posing of a1l matters that must come many sessions has this part of the leg islative processes been as far advanced at such an early date as is the case this year.
 Such signs of life as became ap- parent in the house at Thursdays ses- sion developed when Representative Banks called from the table Represent ative Lester O. Peck's (Redding) reso- lutiOn that the house go on record as favoring the calling by President Taft of an extra session of congress, that the Payne Aldrich tariff law may be taken up for the specific purpose of revising it downward By a vote of 103 to S2, action, on motion of Repre- sentative Hutchinson of Essex was in definitely postponed, but because of pdri1arne entdrys tangle in the procedure of so disposing of the measure there is a probability that the resolution will be again brought up for reconsideration.
 Mir. Peck read a speech in favor of the passage of the resolution At it's conclusion MT. Hutchinson moved in definite postponement. Mir. Joflnson of Newton moved suspension of the rules that the tariff might be revised. MT. Murphy of Danbury moved that the matter again be tabled. Acting Speak CT Knight then put MT. Hutchinson's motion and on a viva voce vote his opinion that the motion was lost was doubted.
 At this point Mir. Hall of Wilmington asked the speaker if a motion to table did not take precedence over a motion to indefinitely postpone, his object be- ing to get a ruling befort the rising Vote was taken, but Mir. Knight put the measure through, considering MT. Hall out of order, and the resolution to in definitely postpone prevailed, The par liamentary tangle was the most inter esting of the session and created no little interest among the members
 The house adjourned soon after noon to meet again Friday morning, when the upper body of the legislature will also be in session.
