At the Auditorium.

Today will be the last chance to see the excellent vaudeville show at this popular playhouse, as the turn of the vaudeville wheel will bring an entirely new show here tomorrow for the re- mainder of the week. The Gibson Girl, a very funny sketch presented by Lor- ing Parquette and company of three people, is full of bright lines and amus- ing situations and keeps the audience laughing from the start of the act to the very finish. Midnight in Venice is one of the prettiest scenes ever put on the stage at this theatre and the Bernivicci Brothers. who present 1t, are two clever musicians. Sally Brown finishes out the bill in first class shape with her popular song numbers.
 The Gaumont Weekly will be here today

Europe,s DiIAnma.

One may well contemplate the di- plomatic sequel of the war with anx- iety. and even alarm. If only four weeks ago. the Balkan states could laugh at and defy Europe. who is to guarantee, that they will obey her now? They have the ball at their feet in more senses than one. They are, sof course, perfectly well aware that the powers. if united, can coerce them; but. in the first place, they sus- pect that the union of the powers is fictitious: and, in the second place they are not over-much impressed by their military ardor. The result will prohahly be that they will prove re- calcitrSnx and then the whole of Flu rope VIII be set ablaze.-Lucien Wolf in The Graphic.
