The secret of the Prin- cess success is the fact that the man. agement has in view at all times va riety, for no one likes to see acts that are alike.
 In John World and Kindell King ston there is team. fresh from The Follies of 191l,' that would be hard to duplicate, and the applause that greeted Miss Kingstons singing was ample testimony that her effort was a decided success. Big John" is a natural comedian, but it was his charming better half who made the Princess ring with her melodious and well trained voice
 The Day After' is usually an event no matter what it concerns, but as this involves the Mimic Four in a bunch of nonsense and singing imita- tions. it is especially noteworthy This is an exceptionally clever act and IS one of the big features of the show
 Tyson and Brown present a master ful and catchy little singing and dane ing speciality and the diamond dress worn by the young lady was the ob- ject of much attention last night. Here is a team that will hold thejr own on any bill.
