Majestic

The bill at the Majestic this week Is
interesting. There are no star acts,
but the bill as a whole is a feature show,
an attraction well worthy of the patron
age of vaudeville goers.
The act that seemed to catch the fancy
of the audience, and which is especially
featured Ey the management is that of
Schrode and Mulvey, presenting their
original comedy skit. "A Visit to the
Theatrical Agency" Mr. Schrode is very
clever in his eccentric dancing and with
the aid OF Miss Muvey offers travesty
on frenchy dances which is inimtable
The next act which met the critical APP
prova of the Monday evening audience
was the stroud trio in a pianologue, fea
turing "Paby Violet
The work of the trio was very ar
tistic The condition OF the overture
from william Tell on the piano by Mrs.
Stroud was especially meritorious. AS
for the baby, Violet" is some child.

ininity that has appeared In these parts

Hayes and Roberts in singing and dane
ing sketch entitled "On the Road. The

artistic in merit. Mr.. Pierce has an eX-
ceptionally good baritone voice. Miss
Roslyn appears to be a very comely young
woman and her piano playing and singing
were greatly admired The act is fea-
tured by lightning like changes of cos
tunes.
