Al the Gnrdrn This Week.

The Garden theater has a great
show this week. The Art Models de
Rossi furnish the most talked Of at
fractions The reproduction of ia
nous paintings are produced with
such beauty of pose and lighting ef-
fects as to arouse much applause
The picture, the Birth Of the Ameri-
can Flag, is striking as well as patri-
otic, The Nymphs," The Rock Of
Ages" The North Star and other
reproductions were loudly applaudcd
at the performances Sunday and
Monday nights. There was no matt
nee sunday owing TO the failure Of
some of the acts to arrive on sched-
uled time. De Rossi started out to
do greater things than are possible in
the show business.
"Of course, this isn't what ] started
but to do" he told "A reporter of the
World last night, but | try to get
as much art as possible in the posing
OF these pictures. Really, it's fascinat-
ing work, but the ones who get most
excited and enthusiastic over it are
the females; the male models take
it as a matter of business. If / want
to change a pose in a picture in which
one of the girls has been applauded,
OF think that | would like to try an
other girl in her place, the minute l
suggest such a thing there is anger
and tears and a terrible howdy-do. l
have been studying the thing out a
bit and / am sure that my models are
much more interested in their work
than any of the other acts of Vaude-
Vile. 1t takes French, Spanish or
Italian people to pose. They are no
prettier in face or form than the AM
orleans, but they seem to understand
instinctvely what's wanted. They
take to the posing Interestingly As a
matter Of fact, the people of these
races are constantly falling into poses
when they talk. ] reason it out that
it is due to the art i'm which they are
brought up and their ancestors for
generations; seeing great pictures and
statutes, they are educated without
knowing it,"
The Heyes Trio is another big fea-
ture no wat the Garden. If there is a
lad I'm Tulsa who thinks he has good
voice he should be permitted TO hear
one Of the boys of this act, for It will
give him an opportunity of gauging his
singing ability. If there is fond
mother, who thinks her son IS Some
singer" she is very prejudiced If she
makes a contrast with sonny" Linz
coin that is not in favor of the state
youth 1t may be there is boy in
the city who thinks he is good dance
er If there be such a lad, he can
meet Billy Gillespie in a contest any
time during the stay of the Hayes
Trio in Tulsa. Young Gillespie is maxi
ing big hit at the Garden At a re-
cent contest at McNickers theater in
Chicago, Young GILLESPIE was award
ed the prize and George Primrose was
one of the judges.
R'Ives Is offering novelty which
is causing a great deal Of talk. The
ballad creation, the beautiful gowns
and the toe dancing executed and the
general mystery of the offering has
awakened wide interest. RIves
starts out to entertain. Everything
that Is done is presented with a view
OF pleasing the audience. 1t is a COM
edy act. novelty act, and an artistic
display of female finery which is Of
fered to the amusement-loving public
with a view OF delighting them. His
song, The Girl With Ze Eyes"
brought half a dozen encores last
night. R'1ves has the ambition and
the go of Eva Tanguay, the style and
grace of Julian Eltinge and the artis-
tic affrontery OF Vesta Victoria.
Bailey and Larkin also have splen-
did act and their efforts led to a big
applause last night. Elsie Ivy is "all
to the good"
