SHOW AT THE GAYETY A HIT,
NOT TO MENTION THE GIRLS,

Dainty, frolicling Jersey Lilies' are
billed at the Gayety Theatre for this
week. Charlie Howard, the diminutive
comedian, is with them, as is James e.
Cooper, who without question is the
'grouchiest' actor living. Whoever
picked the young women for the COM
pany knew his business. for every one
is a little model. and the same is true
Of the show girls. for they are won
derful creations Of womanhood. Not
alone are they handsome, but they can
act, and, above all, entertain. This
should be an inducement to lovers of
burlesque.
The opening number of the show is

the drop of the curtain. Fannie St.
Clair, a dainty blonde, gets her share

the playwright is due to the unusual,
even sensational situations, in which
he has placed his opposing types, and
to the gradual breaking down Of the
barrier between them. by the leveling
power of love and the mysterious in
fiuence of a child. The story Is laid
in a Western mining camp, with Mr..
Clifford Stork as Joe Lacey, principal
owner of the Hoorah mine. Miss
Brownell, from Eastern civilization, ap-
pears as the daughter of Mrs. Kent,
and Joe Lacey marries her. The girl
and her mother become disguised with
the Western diamond in the rough, and
his chums, in their attempts to wear
dress suits. Plenty of comedy is in
troduced at this point, which Is fol-
lowed by the separation Of Joe and his
wife some time later. Joe goes to
Europe and upon his return finds that
he is the father Of a boy. His chQms
adore the baby, and Mrs. Lacey rea-
Lies the worthiness of her husbands
love. A reconciliation Is effected and
mutual love finds forgiveness and hap
piness. Mr.. Edward Van Sloan, as
foreman of the 'Hoorah," is strong in
his portrayal of the gentleman from
Wall Street, and Mr.. Robert Wander
bilt, as Hush" the valet, was realistic
of the part. The a s was we'll set and
all parts were strongly played.

ZAILAH AT THE EMPIRE PUTS
ZEPHYRINE WINGS UPON TIME.

Of burlesque it has been said in sar-
casm that criticism is beyond the ken
of human accomplishments, but the
statement is shorn of it's sting when
applied to zallah's Own Company, per-
forming this week at Miners Empire
Theatre. The company is a new one,
with new scenery, new ideas and new
girlish girls, all on the road for the
first time, with comedians who have
something new, to boot. Add to that
a number of catchy tunes. enhancing
dancing and some real singing and the
combination makes a rare treat for the
patron of burlesque.
The opening skit shows the rehearsal
behind the scenes of the Folies Ber-
gere company, and it's a pot-pori Of
real laughs.
The entire company is good, and the
cast is really without q flaw. Harry
Bentley, as the German professor, is as
good as has been seen on the burlesque
stage since Lew Fields deserted his
first love for the higher-priced comedy
houses. Ike Wall, the property man,
and Tom Barrett. the stage manager,
shine in both ends of the bill.
All -four numbers of the olio, Falardo,
a ventriloquist, who also gives imita-
tons of musical Instruments; Barratt
and Belle, the "suffragettes;" Mae
Rose. a dainty singer. and Mile. Vortex,
ere clever. The second act, called 1.-THE
Unkissed Oriental" gives Zallah a
chance to show her conception Of a
medley of Far Eastern dances, accom-
panied by the weird and subtle strains
CT Oriental tunes.

The best. in the eyes of a majority of
