TALKING DOG A HIT .
AT THE PROCTOR

Don" the talking dog. is the head
liner of an unusually good bill of
vaudeville at Proctor's Theatre this
week. To be sure, Don only speaks
eight words and those in German. but
at that, his performance is remark
able. Don comes from six weeks
run at Hammerstein's.
Don" uses up about four minutes
to do his act. but Loaey Haskell, a
favorite with Newark audiences, in
termingles ''Don's" talk with some of
his own and introduces 8 little COM
edy. He also introduces Don To
quote Haskell. he hasn't quite gone to
the dogs altogether.
"Don's" pronunciation Of the eight
words is distinct. He says kuchen.
meaning cake; ruhe, rest; "Don,' his
name; hunger. hunger; ruble, Russian
for dollar, and Habilon. his masters
name.
Besides the talking dog the pro-
gram has two first-class sketches. In
one Herbert Corthell, late principal
comedian at the Winter Garden,
makes a hit His sketch is "The
Cowboy Preacher From start to
finish it is replete with laughter.
The other playlet is an imitation of
Montague Glass's Potash and Perl
mutter, under the name of 1.-THE
Partners" Rosenbaum and Lowen-
thai are partners in cloal and suit
establishment and expect a buyer.
In mistake they pounce upon a model
and make her present of gown,
only to discover that she is not the
buyer. The action is full of comedy.
George M. Fisher and Harry Green
are the principals.
Probably the biggest laugh pro-
Queer of the evening was the sketch
presented by Jesse L. Lasky, "Elop-
ing" in which a comedy horse fig
ures. The funny antics of the
horse" kept the audience in a roar
throughout the act.
Others who are up to snuff are

Robins, imitator of musical instru-
ments; Elida Morris, very pleasing

"MME. XCUSE NE"
A WASHINGTON HIT

When one act at the Washington
Theatre is billed to remain at the
theatre for the entire week, that act
is good one. That much can be
said of an act called Madame xcuse
Me-" The playlet is different from
the usual run of acts on vaudeville
stage and for that reason was appre-
ciated to the last line. Madame
Reuse Me" Is travesty on Madame
*" and is real novelty. 1t is sell
dom that Manager Otto r. Neu
stages an act of its size. 1t requires
the services of thirty-five persons to
produce it.
Jack Roth's Symphony Orchestra
made good from the rise of the cur
tain. Some very difficult and pleas
ing classic selections are given by the
orchestra. Undean Andrews is seen
to advantage in some very clever
child approximations.
An acrobatic act somewhat out OF
the ordinary Is given by La Belle
and Grant Dick Ferguson, the man
with the loose legs, Is dancer of
class. He was encored several times
for his excellent work. The Three
Creighton Sisters were well received.
The sisters are singing condolences
and live up to the title. A new line
of chatter is given by Armstrong and
Marley.
AS this week marks the third an
niyersary of the washington Theatre
a bill of equal merit is promised for
the latter part of the week. On
Thursday the entire program will
be changed with the exception of the
Madame Reuse Me-" The photo
plays are changed daily.

BRILLIANT AUDIENCE SEES
CORNERSTONE AT ORPHEJJM

1.-THE Confession play built upon
the sanctity of the Roman Catholic
confessional, was presented last night
by the Brownell- Stork Company at
the Orpheum Theatre. Miss Brownell
had no part in the cast and acted
as hostess to members Of the Young
Woman's Auxiliary to the board of
managers of the Home for Crippled
Children, the proceeds of last nights
performance going to that institu-
ton.
The benefit brought to the Orpheum
an unusually brilliant audience. All
of the boxes were occupied and every
seat in the house had been sold.
Miss Brownell conducted the sale of
souvenir programs. and the box in
which she placed the proceeds of this
sale was overfiowing long before the
overture began. She also thanked the
audience for Its support of the charity
in charming speech during one Of
the intermissions.
OF the play itself One mans work
stood out above that of every other
member of the cast. This was Joseph
Sweeneys portrayal of the part of

That this is true is due to the ina

what the company could continue in

find a permanent home. AS a stock

KEENEY SCORES IN
VAUDEVILLE HERE

Bidding farewell to stock produc-
tons the Keeney Theatre, formerly
the Payton, inaugurated its new
policy of high-class vaudeville and
motion pictures at popular prices
yesterday with a bill of headIiners
that Is probably one of the best ever
offered to Newark theatregoers.
The new policy of the house is the
continuous performance from 1 O'Clock
in the afternoon until II at night.
Maid of Nicobar,' a tabloid musi-
cal comedy, was the feature of the
bill. 1t employs a company of ten.
1t Is both a scenic and musical treat
and was heartily encored. Nelson. a
comedy juggler, who manipulates
hats, balls and cigar boxes. inter-
spersing his work with humorous
side tricks, gave the audience a full
ten minutes of laughter, and his re-
peated recall left no doubt as to the
hit" the act made.

have been more appreciated if the or

Sousa, the American march king.
would have played it, We're beyond
criticism. As an encore he blamed the
audience for his extra efforts by play
ing you Made Me Love You"
Mason Lee and Lee, balancers and
acrobats, were very clever, and some
of their catching and lifting work
was wonderful. The audience quick
ly showed their approval of the act
and the members of. the troupe We're
repeatedly recalled.
Gertie Carlysle and her eight sweet
hearts We're well received, but here
again the orchestra partly spoiled the
act by their failure to keep up with
the singers and occasional discords
followed. Miss Carlysle is very clever,
but the act drags at times. A few
dancing steps by the men with snap
pier songs would no doubt bring the
act into the headline class.
William Flemen and company in a
dramatic sketch had very good
vehicle but failed to get all out of the
act that was possible. The feminine
member of the company seemed out
of place and her voice is unsuited for
the part she plays.
Walters and Lane in a singing and
talking slxit were well received and
added much to the brightness of the
bill Sam j. Curtis and company in
singing novelty kept the audience
in good humor In their singing the
bass is apparently too heavy for the
other three members of the quartet
with the result that at times only the
bass singer was heard.
Kinemacolor pictures and regular
photoplays added to the attractive.

MINERS 4FOLL|ES"
APEX OF WISDOM

Barney Gerard's 1914 Follies of
the Day" are disporting themselves
at Miners Theatre, in Washington
street, this week. Lead by Gertrude
Hayes, who is known to all patrons
OF burlesque as one of the most YER
satile and pleasing condolences on
the burlesque stage, the show is in
deed a good one. A little girl just
about three feet in height runs Miss
Hayes a close second. Anna Propp
is her name, and the manner in
which she sings and dances her way
into the admiration of the audience
is truly remarkable. Her talent Is
above the ordinary and she was en-
cored time and again for her efforts.
Gertrude Hayes is the same Ger
trude who has appeared in this city
time and again and always received
welcome. Her songs and comedy
are catchy, and combined with her
attractive personality she was easily
the hit of the show.
Others among the merry merry"
are also allowed to step into the lime
light at times, and among those who
made good are Ruth Sullivan, Made
line Sullivan and Edith Malvore.
This season the Follies are using q
cleverly written two-act concoction of
mirth and melody entitled 1.-THE Car
den of Girls" to present their diversi-
fed form Of entertainment. There are
whistleable songs without number.
some of them written expressly for
this production, plenty of laughs,
handsome scenery and a quantity Of
girls CARRIED in fanciful costumes.
The three comedians, Mcintyre,
Rose and Manning, are trio
hard to excel. During the comedy
speciaIties were introduced by Miss
Hayes and her Dancing Bricktops,
and Gerard's Harmonists, a trio Of
tuneful singers. Miss Hayes and
Billy Mcintyre were excellent in q
travesty on an act of within the
Law" which they termed Without
the Law" Following the matinee
performances this week Miss Hayes
and the members of the company will
act as hosts to the ladies of the au-
dience at tea served on the stage.

Mary Nash who plays the princl-
pal feminine role in THE Lure.
which will be given at the Shubert
next week with the original New
York cast. is a devotee of modern
society dances. She asserts that the
tango and other dances classed with
the tango, when modestly done, are
the prettiest social dances, the most
graceful and dainty ever known In
any country Their fascination Is
proof enough of their grace, she says.
Never has the world been SO
'dance-mad' as now and the most
beautiful and cultured of all women
are the chief supporters of this dance
which, because few made repellapt
and suggestive, the world Is con-
demnlng as vulgar, indecent, I'M
fit for for good people to adopt.
= Another thing I want to say for
the modern social dance from the
actors and actresses point of view
1t Is doing more TO mako him and her
young and healthy than any previ-
Gus fad or hobby, Heretofore the
man or woman who earns his or her
daily bread behind the footiights has

else too little. But the social dances

In the playlet by Sidney Toler, The

murderer, who confesses to Father
Bartlett Clifford Stork) that he has
slain the man for whose murder the
priests brother Thomas edward Van
Sloan) Is convicted. He itestifes
against Thomas and depends upon the
sanctity of the confessional for safety.
OF course the playgoers missed Miss
Brownel. Miss Mabelle Estelle, wh5
had the leading role, is much more
clever in lighter parts than that OF
the emotional sweetheart of Thomas
Bartlett. Charlotte Wade Daniel
Mother Bartlett in the play-rde-
claimed rather than played the part.
Master Frank Frayne, jr., added a
bright touch of comedy in his lines
as Patsy Moran, a hunch- backed ward
of Father Bartlett, but surely some
thing could be done to improve his
makeup. Edmund Soraghan. as
Michael Grogan, a sexton. also had
humorous lines to relieve the dead
seriousness of the drama.
The play was well staged, the storm.
in the first act, being particularly
effective.
Members OF the cast other than
those mentioned We're Harry Hammel,
J. Russell Webster, James r. Carey,
Morey Drisco and Royal Tracy.
