Cosmos.

A bright little one-act farce comedy en-
titled Nerve" written by Victor H.
Smalley, scored decided hit at the Co.'S
mos Theater yesterday afternoon and
last evening. In addition to novel and
laughable opening the little play, which
runs about twenty minutes, fairly spar
kles with humor and carries a serVlceable
lesson in it's story. Four large audiences
laughed heartily throughout its presenta-
ton by the Bloomquest Players, and re-
Warded them with insistent curtain calls
at the close.
another Offering of merit is the eNhihi-
ton of the Randalls in feats of marks
manship, with elaborate scenic accom-
pan,ment. Ward and Culhane. who. re-
Gently appeared with the Dingbat COM
pany, gave an exhibition of dancing,
graceful and grotesqne, closing with
''bear dance that was rewarded with a
yeritable storm of laughter and applause
Other attractions include Johnson and
Wentworth, in a graceful and merltorl-
Gus singing sketch: Roy and Hick, in
a .rube and the girl act. a sort of song
and comedy skit, and George Smedley,
IN a novel instrumental offering, lnciud-
ing a selection from III Trovatore' play
ed by himself alone on ten string lnstru-
ments of various kinds. The film fea-
lures include an Uncle Mum comedy
and the Pathe Weekly Review of current
events of the world.

Gayety.

Pete Curley and his company of ''Daz-
zlers'' present an entertainment at the
Gayety this week that is hard to beat
in burlesque. ''Dugan, the Deputy is
the title of their two-act musical COM
edy, which recites the trials and tribu-
lations of Dugan. a happy -go-lucky Irish
man, while serving as deputy station
master at a railroad station and later as
hotel porter. The part of Dugan is
played by Pete Curley in a manner that
keeps the audience in continued laughter.
Mr.. Curley is well known to the patrons
Of local burlesque houses and was loudly
applauded when he made his first APP
pearance. He is ably assisted by Ben
Pierce; who plays the part of a German
with an unpronounceabie name. Johnnie
Walker. ALI p. James and Charles Ray
mond are all well cast and do much
toward making the show a hit with the
audience Kate Prior, Kate Mitchell and
Nan Engelton divide the feminine honors.
Miss Prior is clever and attractive; Miss
Mitchell can both sing and dance, and
Miss Engelton is singer of unusual
ability. The "DazZlers" chorus is we'll
trained, handsomely gowned and at
tractive.

Polls.

The stellar attraction at Polls this
week, a musical act offered by the six
kirksmith sisters, is one OF the best that
has come to the playhouse this season.
Not only is the music well played and
sung, but just to look at the girls is a
treat. For once the program does not
say anything about their being young and
pretty. but they are. Their overflowing
fun permeates the audience and their
catchy smile Is ever present. One girl in
particular, who sings a soprano solo and
plays the violin, has an especially pleas
ing personality. The act includes singing
by a quartet and several instrumental
sextets.
Doc O'Neil not mentioned on the pro-
gram, sings few songs, the music being
incidental to the funny words, but he
makes his real hit with a rapid-tire mono
logue in which he has many new jokes.
The Hickman Brothers and young
woman, in skit entitled "The Detective
Detected" were we'll received.
Paula Reeves has several new songs and
as many changes of pretty costumes Her
singing of the Beautiful Lady, made
famous by Hazel Dawn in 'The Pink
Lady" was warmly applauded.
Earnie and Earnie, a man and woman.
have a real novelty. The woman dances
well, and the man. who has only one leg,
dances some intricate steps. At times he
is iigging on his one leg and the crutch.
and then on the crutch alone. He also
does a number of acrobatic feats. Maxi
mus, Russian giant, opens his act with
statuesque poses and juggles a dumbbell
weighing hundreds of pounds. His figure
is symmetrical and unusually we'll de-
veloped.
Richard and Kyle have a good skit, en-
titled "At the Club amusing for its
satire. The motion pictures are unusu-
ally good.

Columbia.

"The Trail of the Lonesome Pine" is
one of those delightful paths along which
the nature-loving, leisurely traveller may
journey more than once or twice and find
new glimpses into the heart Of the noun
tain woods and gaps and into the hearts
of their people. And big audience at
the Columbia Theater last night went
along the trail between the Gap and
Lonesome Cove, spent a pleasant half
hour with the wild and fairyloving June.
saw her grasp the deeply significant
meaning of the great fairy story as
she "got larnin'' from the little red
school at the Gap, and left her with a
deep feeling of satisfaction that all was
well. because she would remain at the
side of her lover.
For those who saw this play by Eugene
Walter, founded on the novel by the same
name by John Fox, jr, when it was fresh
on the stage. and yet no more refreshing
than now. there was a real pleasure in
seeing the development Of Miss Charlotte
Walker in the role of June, that self
willed child of the moonshine mountains.
1t was in the second act where she most
convincingly demonstrated her advance
ment in painting the stage picture. June
was year older than in the first act, and
much has happened to soften her wild
mountain instincts and ways. Yet she
could not forsake entirely those char
acteristics that had come down to her
through several generations of feuding
ancestors and that had been taught her
during her early, impressionistic years of
childhood.
For Miss Walker there was the dam
ger that she might make the change in
June too great. But she painted the pic
ture with great delicacy, showing a
deeper appreciation of the changes year
might bring to girl like June than was
noticed before. Altogether Miss Walkers
June was marked by refreshing vi
vacity and deep primal emotions.
The portrayal of June's gray haired stur-
dy and stubborn father Judd Tolliver, was
again in the wholly capable hands of W.
S. Hart. The distinction he gave to the

lation handouts and he is hanging sus-
pended by the neck eight or ten feet
above the stage. Another is his Siberian
mail bag mystery in which, after being
manacled and shackled with all sorts of
chains and irons, he makes his escape
from a big canvas bag securely pad
locked.
A laughable singing comedy. which con-
Germs the union of girl with a mole on
her arm and a man who has never been
kissed. that brings fortune to both of
them, is presented by Bonner and Meek.
Henry and Wood have a musical act or
merit which includes some excellent work
on the violin and the banjo and some
grand opera music besides. The bill con-
cludes with spectacular scenic and gor-
geousy costumed number by the Clarence
sisters and brothers, who introduce songs
and dance specialties. each with COM
pIete change of costume and scenery.
The motion pictures are quite laughable.
The management announces the addl-
ton of one or two acts to the bill for
future performances.

Academy.

'I4ifes Shop Window" a dramatiza-
ton of the story by Victoria Cross, which
was presented at the Academy last night,
tells of a young woman who nearly falls
into the tolls of a villainous aristocrat
with iron gray hair and smartly tailored
clothes There is a tinge of sadness in
Lydia WiIton's life. She is shown as
the maid Of all work on an English farm
In the first act, desperately In love with
a young farmer, Bernard Chetwin, who
sets his face westward to make a for
note of discomfort creeps into her life at
her chance meeting with Eustace Pei
ham, the English aristocrat.
A year later she and her husband and
her little son are homesteaders in the
ruddy west. Cbetwin is working every
minute of the day to build up his for
tune; and 1t is because he gives all his
waking hours to his ranch and his cattle
that Eustace Pelham, in America on a
hunting trip, has ample opportunity to
SOW the seeds of discomfort Blind to
what was going on in his own home, the
handsome young farmer is staggered one
night to find his wife has gone. The last
act of the play is by far the strongest
of the four. as 1t portrays the struggle
of the wife in her genuine love for her
husband and child. offset by the promises
the villainous Englshman. 1t is scene
In the desert. Husband and wife and
Englishman are brought face to face. The
wife chooses to remain with her husband
and her child and the Englishman dis
appears forever.
Considerable care has been taken
with stage effects in "Life's Shop Win
dow" A rainstorm in the first act is
realistic. and the sunrise scenes in two
moments of the play were appreciated
thoroughly by the audience. Melo-
dramatic moments are furnished by
Hodge, d field hand. who is shot by
Eustace Pelham as the former attempts
to thwat his plan to run away with
Lydia. Alfred Britton, as Bernard Chet-
win. was easily the hero Of the per-
formance, and his stage presence was
adequate. Claudia Lucas, in the sympa-
thetic role of Lydia, the wife, showed
the varying emotions of a woman in
temptation. AS an Indian, Harry Hughes.

and applause: and Ruthe Hayes as Star

interesting characterizations. Clyde

was quite up to the standard. and Emory
Blunkali as the heroic Hodge shared
dramatic honors with the leaders of the
cast.

Chase $.

At ChaSeS David Belasco's vaudeville
production, THE Drums Of Dude" is the
pre-eminent feature of the program, and
is based on an episode of the Sepoy re-
bellion. Every actor in the cast is an
Englishman, who looks as if he had
stepped out of the British army and the
actress who gives the one touch Of femi-
nine terror to the siege Is dramatically
satisfying in her conception of a timid
woman who knows how to die. Two
Hindustani servants writhe in and out of
the plot with snake-like sinuosity, giving
tangible form to the treachery of the
orient-just as the woman at the spinet
pictures England and home
The influence of Beiasco is plainly Wis
ible in the production. A reign of ter
ror pervades the palace of Dude and the
that assures completeness OF effect. The
presentation concludes with a climax III
the form of thrilling rescue.
The seven people whose realism gives
a mimic siege the aspect of terrible verify
