PoLI's VAUDEVILLE
tBy the PoH Press Agent.)

Today Is the last chance to see ATys- terio in his wonderful feats at Polls New Theatre. He has startled the public Of Bridgeport like no other hi1- man being has. Every day he baf- f1es with a mysterious trick. For to- day, the last day, he will attempt to make his escape from a mail pouch furnished by the Hawley Hardware Go. It will be securely locked with two of the strongest locks procurable, also furnished by the same firm. This attempted release by Mysterio comes in the way of a challenge and it re- mains to be seen if Mysterio will be successful.
 The Seven Bracks in the marvellous risley acrobatic turn are about the swiftest and classiest troupe ever seen here, and the fact that they came di- rect from the New York Hippodrome e is assurance that they are classy.
 Clare and Metcaf in an operatic and popular singing offering; Weston and Keith in a. comedy act; The Gypsy Countess. in a novelty musical act; and Albert Donnelly in a comedy shadpwgraph diversion, are the other acts on this splendid vaudeville bill.
 The talking picture and the regular first run silent dramas and comedy photo plays are well worth seeing This is one of the best shows that has been at Polls New Theatre this season.
 Commencing Thursday and for the balance Of the new week will find an entire new show headed by that well known farce scenic comedy, High

FOX's LYRIC THEATRE
tBy the Fox Lyric Press Agent.)

It seems to be the consensus of opin-- ion that in 'tJust Bobby the playIet which Miss Eleanor Cleveland and her players are presenting at the Lyric these three days, the popular little stock star has found the best vehicle she has yet essayed in vaudeville. It is 8 tremendous hit in every way and it is backed up by a splendid bill of vaudeville including Mitchell & Light ner, the proverbial riot with their songs and chatter; Juggling Jordans combining real comedy with real skill in manipulating balls, Indian clubs, canes ct al, Fisher and Wells in a classy bit of musical comedy and Saw yer & Tanner in a novelty cartoon let along, entirely new and refreshing lines. Not the least important feature of the bill and a splendid applause winner, is the wonderful Kine1na color play of Nathan Hale. Tonight will be the last time 1t will be present and 1t should be seen by every one.

THE PLAZA
tBy the Plaza Press Agent.l


 Never has a stock production arous- ed SO much commendatory enthusiasm and So great number of praises and kind words as that which obtains at the Plaza Theatre this week, where scented by the Po1i Players, and it is tuning and acting is on a par with that Of the original company, or far ahead of it., when the ridiculous prices of admission are taken into consider ation.
 Paul McAIlister is an excellent ac- tor. Of that there, can be no denying. His portrayal of the difficult tfWdIlian Hodge role in the clever play, is without a flaw. His every word, ev- cry action and every utterance denotes the finished artist and the audiences are not slow to give due appreciation in the form of applause.
 The other favorites, Marguerite Starr, Brenda Fowler, William For reste1le. Arthur Buchanan. Parke Pat ton, Emma Campbell a1nd Arthur Gr1f- fin, surpass themselves The charac- ters in ''The Man From Home are all life-Iike, just though transposed from the street, and this makes each one hard role to play.
 The four acts are all properly set. The scenes in Italy around Sorrento are perfect. The view of the Bay of Naples with Mount Vesivius' is a vivid one and lends much to the total grand rendition of the pretty drama.
 Daily matinees and at most popular prices is the policy of the Poli Play CTS at the Plaza Theatre.

SPORTOGRAPHY

CleVe1a1FQ, May 14-1hS strange J1nX which has afflicted Cleveland baseball managers ever since the club entered the American League, has come to the front again. Manager Jos Birming- ham, the crack outf1e1der. will prob ably be out of the game for a, month with a broken bone dn his inStep and the fracture of the lower tibia of his right leg incurred Monday in sliding to second base in the ninth inning of the game lost to the New York Amer jeans.
 Cleveland has shown surprising has been attributed to Birmingham and his methods. He has put more life in the notoriously 1acl1adaisica1 Maps than they have shown in years and In .tlre West they are considered serious pennant contenders, being on almost even terms with Washington will direct his team from the bench Ryan will probably play center for him. @
 :. Jake Daubert.s fellow Dodgers are peeved at tsthe big first basenan, and. although today is 3Jakess birthd ay, it isn't likely that he will get any gifts from his teammates. The Dodgers, so called because of their skill and ability in evading victory are fearful of losing their. reputation, and 1t. is all lakes fault He has an idea, that he is abefit. the best man on the initial bag in the big show, and he has been playing accordingly. Unless he can be induced 9tos. listen to. reason, Jake is likely to put Brooklyn in a per- manent first division berth. Besides performing spectacular stunts at first, Jake started the season by clouting the pill about every time he went to bat, and in the seasons first averages he led the National League with a batting average of .636-which is some average, believe muhi Wicked Bill Dahlen, observing Jake's antics, has become real chesty of late, while Charles Holiday Ebbets, in his dreams, already sees a banner of strange de- sign floating proudly from the flag staff of his brand new baseball yard
 Daubert's name was originally John. which is sufficient reason for the fans christening him Jake, and he was born in L1ewellyn, which, as every body knows, is in Pennsylvania. just twenty eight annuns ago this very day. His youth was spent principally in growing, but when he reached an altitude of six feet and one inch som ething put a stop to the growth and he has remained that sort of a little runt ever since. He started his career with Kent in the Interstate League, back in 19o7,. but the team gave up the ghost after g. couple of months, and Jake went to Marion, in the Ohio and Pennsylvania circuit. Next he was traded to Cleveland, which turned him over to Nashville. in the Southern League. After a sea son in the southern city Daubert was recalled by Cleveland in 1909. but was transferred to the Toledo Mudhens, and Toledo sold him to Memphis, whence Brooklyn got him in 1910. Since the decline of Hal Chase, Dau- bert is undoubtedly about the best first baseman in the big leagues. There are men who can occasionally pull off more brilliant plays than Jake, but for steady, reliable plugging and >swatting ability he has all other first sackers faded.
