1.-THE THEATRES |
POLLS VAUDEVILLE

Heapdng one theatrical triumph atop
of another, Manager Poll has outdone
every previous effort IN arranging for
a. Dill OF stupendOuS magnitude for his
theatre de luxe here next week. His
recent successes which broke records
for attendance in Poll history have
only urged him to greater efforts in
his endea,vor to please his Bridgeport
patrons. A realization of these eff
forts is contained in next weeks pro-
gram, which his extensive booking
agencies admit to be the greatest vau-
deville bill ever presented in New
England.
Manager Poll has gone to Europe
for his headliner for next week DR.
Carl Herman, the worlds wizard of
electricity, has just completed an ex-
tended tour of the continent, and his
first time since return, is a, great coup
for MIR. Poll DIR. Herman presents
THE Haunted Window, Eun-ope's lat
est and most sensational mystery. in
of scientific control of that omnipotent
force, electricity. 1.-THE Haunted Win
dow is a marvellous Illusion that has
baffled scientists abroad and literally
of the audience, DR.. Herman brings
from nowhere and sends to nowhere
nayriads of seemingly living forms, as
they pass in review before the haunt
ed window 1t is absolutely the
greatest mystery the theatrical world
has ever known.
DT. herman carries hJInQrGQS OF
thousands of dollars worth of the most
delicate electrical apparatus known.
He handles this potent agent with
abandon and dexterity that is breath
taking Millions and millions of volts
fit about his body with no personal
damage to this wizard of electricity
In DIR. Herman, Manager Poll has OBJ
tanned headliner par excellence to
top wonderful vaudeville bill.
A special added attraction is Eddie
Leonard, appearing in vaudeville for
II G-,h1. 49,
by that dainty, winsome Coincidence,
Mabel Russell. Mr.. Leonard Is too
well known to Bridgeporters to need
further Introduction. His appearance
here in white face, however. is some
thing new and the fact that he will
sing tRoIy Boly Eyes only as Eddie
Leonard can sing it, insures hearty
reception for him and Miss Russell.
Miss Lillian Shaw, direct from six
weeks successful engagement at Ham
mersteinfs, New York, appears as the
can sing character songs as can no
one else, and critics agree that her re-
cent work well earned her the honor
OF being THE, Talk of New York;
directly after her New York successes.
again shows Mr.. Polls alertness to
obtain only the best there is in vau-
deVi1Ie for Bridgeport.
Julia Mash and company present a
dramatic sketch, Tier First Case,
that has proved sensational novelty
every NVdB9E0. Ire P1dy16L lQ0GaLSs
the first professional engagement of g.
young woman lawyer and it's conse-
Quent result.
Kimerley and Mohr have something
really new in a musical offering. These
clever artists can sing and do sing In
a manner that captdvates, and at the
grand piano they are truly at home,
whether their efforts be popular or
classical airs.
The Six American Dancers is the
latest terpsichorean novelty that vau-
deyille has known. Half a dozen ca
pable lads and dainty lassies present
the latest in dancing steps and their
solo and ensemble work is really won
derful.
Ernie and Ernie, in Three Feet of
Comedy, have something new in ac-
robatics. A one-legged boy. assisted
by a. dainty young lady, performs all
sorts of athletic and equiibristic feats
that astonish. The Poliscope closes
the bill with the latest and best in
animated photography.
Such a. bill this deserves, and
doubtless will receive, the patronage
it deserves. Seats are now selling for
any performance next week A Sc
lection of seats now is advised in Or
der that patrons may not be disap-
