The Gordon & North Amusement
Company's aggregation of comedians
and pretty girls opened a weeks en-
gagement at the Gayety Theatre yes
terday, presenting the musical
comedy THE Merry Whirl." IN two
continuous spasms of laughter.
Thomas F. Smith and Phil Doyle,
the leading comedians of the aggre
cation, are shown to great advantage
throughout the entire performance.
Their impersonation of Fred Stone
and Dave Montgomery in a scene
from THE Red Mill'' was out Of the
ordinary, and provoked much
laughter. In the second part they
were shown TO equal advantage.
Among the feminine members of the
company Miss Lillian Fitzgerald
proved herself star in a class by
herself She is one of the prettiest
and most bewitching little songbirds
seen at the Gayety this season, and.
in spite of her name. cleverly i'm

throughout was of a high order and
entertaining. Miss Mabel DeNord

THE ROSARY" AT THE
oRPHEUM, A GREAT. HIT

"The Rosary a four-act play, by
Edward Rose, founded on the song
of the same name and telling heart
interest story in gripping way, IS
the attraction at the Orpheum
Theatre this week. The play IS es-
sentially a religious one, the central
and dominant character being the
Rev. Brian Kelly, a Catholic priest;
but the religious element is so
cleverlv interviewer with the plot of
the play that it heightens, rather
than lessons, the interest in the de-
velopment.
The story concerns a girls betrayal
and financial ruin, brought about
through the Vaccinations of a re-
vengeful sutton. A miracle is wrought
by Father Kelly, who awaKens a re-
ligious spirit in the husband ana
reconciles him with the wife.
Even the man who has brought all
the unhappiness by his scheming re-
penis and is converted.
Phe scenes are laid in Westminster,
n. Y. and present the garden OF
Bruce Wilton, the study in his nome
and the exterior of the Chapel OF the
Rosary, of which Father Kelly is the
rector, and which has been presented
to him by Wilton.
One of the pleasing features was
Miss Brownell's rendition of the song
"The Rosary" In the last act.
AS Father Kelly, Lee Sterrett, the
capable stage manager of the Payton
Company, is seen in one of his noted
portrayals. Mr.. Sterrett embodied
the true Irish good-nature and wit In
the part At times, however, he was
inclined to fall into the hackneyed
stage Interpretation of an lrishman
in his talk.
The roles of Bruce Wilton and his
wife Vera, who are separated by the
Vaccinations of Kenward Wright,
are very capably handled by Arthur
Jarrett and Miss Mabel Browneil. The
part of Wright, which is interpreted
by Joseph W. Girard, the clever
heavy man of the company, is all
that might be desired, while all the
other members of the company show
to advantage.

The increased number OF stock which
