ArrHE HIppopRoME.

Three good acts of vaudeville are
on the bill at the Hippodrome for the
first half. "The Ramsy Harmonists"
have the feature spot, and present a
great singing act called "Kancelled"
or in plain English cancelled An act
OF this sort would, not be cancelled on
any bill, but use the word for a title
only. They sing as you like to hear
singing and insert enough comedy to
make 1t worth while. The individual
singing is good and their harmony is
perfect. They carry special scenery
and it helps to make "Kancelled" the
best ever.
Martyne offers an act along the
lines Of an imitator, but entirely differ
ent from many so.called imitators. His
characters are all good especially
those Of the late president Mckinley,
and William Jennings Bryan. His dog
bark and cat fight are most realistic.
Shatfer and Mason offer an act full
Of good comedy and some catchy songs.
The male member of the team is a
comedian Of the better sort and works
with great ease, and his material is.
good and best OF all, is new. The fe-
male member is great help to the
comedian and their combined efforts
are most pleasing.
