Polite Vaudeville.

tertainment at Chase's this week and
shows the advance made by vaudeville
during the past few years. Sandwiched
in between a feat OF strength and one
of emotion. as played by Miss Bingham.
there is much TO please and still more
at which TO laugh.
McDevitt, Kelly, and Irene Lucey have
an act called The Piano Movers,
which OF its kind is about the most
wholesome laughabIe sketch on the stage
today. Value Is added to II by the fact
that the two male members Of the cast
don't attempt to look like actors. but
like piano-movers, which in stage life
they are. Their playing. acting and sing
ing Is JOY to the jaded who are tired
of seeing the same old thing done in the
same old way.
Another novelty is the act OF Flanagan
and Edwards. who, as performers, are
shown from their bedroom TO the stage
in the evening. One could not imagine
such a change as this pair make in a
few minutes and do II all well. They
sing and dance well and their comedy
is as clean and pure as the air which
blew through the doors yesterday after
noon.
Autumn Hall. a violinist who has ap-

THE ACADEMY.
"Thc White Slnve.o

The Academy attraction this week
Is The White Slave" and the re-
vival OF this great melodrama proved
a distinct success, as evidenced by the
reception given II by the capacity
house of last night.
The story depicts life in the South
before the civil war, and large band
Of genuine Southern "darkies," sing
ing the immortal songs of Stephen C.
Foster. add luster to the characteris-
tic pictures of the sunny South Of
1887. The heroine, Lisa. is a white
girl of high parentage, but It is in
the admirably created mystery sur
rounding her birth and the complicat-
ing circumstances which throw her
into slavery that the romantic and ex-
citing story is developed.
The plantation scene at Osceola, with
the choruses of the Southern darkies, all
hfelike characters, was the most thor
oughly enjoyed, and the encores demand
ed were SO many that they ran out Of
the old songs and were compelled to re-
sort to some of the new ones. which
were most excellently and uniquely rem
dered. The scenic production. as a whole.
together with the electrical effects, is
especially fine.
The unusually large cast Is one OF the
best seen at this playhouse this season.
Lillian Anderson gives to the heroine.
Lisa, a peculiar touch OF pathos that
makes the character stand out real,
while Frederick J. Adams. as Clay.
makes a sufficient hero of the Kentucky
bred boy. Allen Lees portrayal Of the
Dealer in Niggers and Horses" OF slav-
cry time is effective. and Forest thinner
is good as the cruel overseer. The other
members OF the company faithfully pic
ture the everyday life OF the South.

THE GAYETy.
The Trocadero Burlcsauers.

The Trocadero Burlesquers, with Frank
Finney as the star. are the attraction at
the Gayety this week. with one OF the
best shows that has appeared at Man
ager Peck's house this season. The show
is lively and up to the minute. and there
is not a dull moment during the entire
evening.
The name of Frank Finney is sufficient
guarantee of an evening OF hilarity, and
he has not fallen on in his capabilities
as a. fun maker. Mr.. Finney has a brand
OF comedy entirely his own. and to him
is accredited the book and lyrics. Many

len far short OF his attainments as
comedy writer.
Next in line comes Sam J. Adams, well
remembered for his excellent work in
other companies in burlesque, a man
whose comedy is clean and to the point.
John p. Griffith is an excellent actor.
and his work as Stockton Bonds Is all
that could be desired. Mr.. Grifith Is

Miss Burke is beyond question the best

NEW LYCEUM.
1.-THE Girls from Missouri"


The New Lyceum has Eva Null and
the Girls from Missouri as its attrac-
ton this week. and this must be conceded
TO be one of the highest class shows on
the circuit. Jimmie Kearney and Fred
Russell furnish the comedy in Irish and
Hebrew character. The balance Of the
company Is very good. with Bobby Har-
rington, Francis T. Reyonlds, Leathe
Keeney, Marguerite Cushings, and Eva
Null. as Billy Wise, The Littlest Leading
Lady. which is the title Of the two-act
musical entertainment.
The first scene is laid In the Casino at
Monte Carlo and the second In the Royal
Palace of Girl Island" A capable Choir
us added greatly to the entertainment.
Mention must be made OF Christina Hall.
q member Of the chorus. who sang Life
Is Just a Dream, Dear" In a way that
brought several encores.
There is no olio in this weeks entertain
ment, but in the first act Miss Eva Null
presents a travesty Of a scene suggested
by the famous war drama, THE Littlest
Rebel" as a novelty to burlesque.
The entertainment abounds with good
songs. which are well rendered by tho
principals and chorus.

CASINO.

Three men and a girl. known as the
Flying Glendales, startled big audiences
at the Casino Theater yesterday after
noon and last night with one of the most
remarkable acrobatic acts in midair that
has been presented here this season.
Two casting features. the one of a whirl-
ing girl and the other of man who
turns a triple somersault while being
tossed from one man to another on the
high bars. are especially thrilling. Joe
Lanfgan. the monologist. had things all
his own way in the matter Of laugh
making.
His personal appearance. his singing
and his Jokes are the quintessence of
comicality. Whiting and Girard have an
entertaining pianologue. and Rinaldo, the
Gypsy violinist. a delightful violin Of
fering, his Rubenstein's Melody in F. On
one string. being a striking feature.
The Bell Boy Trio are also a musical
feature with their harmonized songs and

POLPS.
.sThe Collere widow

That ever-verdant exponent Of college
atmosphere, as 1t Is at short intervals
during 4 long grind for that wonderful
bue unuseful piece OF imitation sheep
skin. is delighting the friends of the Poll
Players this week. George Ads probably
In his widest dreams never thought that
this clever comedy Of college life would
be perpetuated for such a long and sue
cessful period. Tho College Widow"
still manages to please the most jaded
Of US playgoers. and the production Of
this week deserves considerable credit.
A. II. Van Buren fuiills the popular
Idea Of what BILLY Bolton" the all
American half back should be. His boy
ishness throughout the first act makes
him a regular care-free college chap, and
when the opportunity affords he ad-
mirably brings to the front the other
and serious side of Bolton. Izetta Jewell
is a most winsome college widow, and
IL such a siren could exist in a real
college there would be no doubt regard
ing the kind of football teams repre-
senti,g that college.
Mark Kent as Hiram Bolton has q role
which Is perfectly congenial to him. and
makes the most Of his lines. Lotta Lin

In the simple life, Is a most charming
athletic girl. Mrs. DalzelIe, the chape-
ron. 10 In the capable hands Of Helen
Tracy. and she manages to bestow small
favors on the greater part of the COM
pany during the evening. Graham Vel
sey makes a regular "Stubby" Tall
madge. You can almost recognize the
comedy mdnologist which each univer-
sity is blessed with In his conception OF
this character.
The comedy roles are in capable hands.
Our old friend Flora Virgins, who Is
after the four weeks board at four-fifty
per. Is cleverly handled by Gertrude
Bondhill, while Frank Shannon keeps the
audience In laughter with the shoes that
cannot fit one Murphy, matriculated IN
a course of art. The retuvenation of
"Bub'' Hicke Is very aptly managed by
Dudley Hawley. Under the pseudonym
of Craig Weston" a young dramatic
writer, he makes his first professional
appearance. and his performance of Jack
Larabee was especially good. He made
a distinct hit In the third act As he had
a good reason for being inspired. 1t goes
without saying that his best moments
were with Miss Jewell. Thomas Williams
made good as the snappy trainer Nc
Gowen, and formed a direct contrast TO
the role Of Prof. Witherspoon. which was
excellently performed by Francis Ban.
The remainder of the company was well
cast, and included number OF young
amateurs. Their work was
more than appreciated. especially that or

production the public had formed the
opinion it would be, and at every per-
formance the Garden was crowded to the
doors with men and women eager TO see
the beautiful and much talked about

No less pleasing was the musical pro-

Important Business Change.

An important deal has just been con-
summated in Newport, by which the
jewelry business conducted for the
past thirteen years by True & Blanchard
Company is transferred to P. G.. Davis
and Roy Skinner, who will conduct the
same in the present location under the
firm name of Davis & Skinner.
Mr.. Davis, who for some time has
been employed by True & Blanchard
Company in the capacity of watch
maker, jeweler, and optometrist, has
had ten or twelve years successful bus
mess experience on his own account,
and is most thorough, careful, eff
clent, palnstaking, and competent man
known as one OF Newport's hustling
young business men. who has already
demonstrated his ability in this re-
spect. and both men are entitled to the
esteem and confidence, not only of
Newport citizens, but also of the many
who make Newport their shopping
headquarters.
1t is with much regret that True &
Blanchard Company part with the bus
mess, which from small beginning
they have developed to such splendid
state of efficiency, and it is only be-
cause of the rapid development of the
other branches of their business. parti-
cularly of the Monarch Sugar Tool in
dustry and automobile accessories de-
partment, which demands the entire
time and energy of both Mr.. True and
Mr.. Akin, that they are induced to
part with the jewelry business, of
which they have been justly proud.
The china department heretofore
conducted in the rear of the jewelry
store will be moved to commodious
quarters in the basement store, which
! are now being fitted up, and where the
same can be conducted to much better
advantage to both proprietors and pa
| irons than has been heretofore pos
sible.
Relieved of the responsibility of the
| department disposed of, True &
| Blanchard Company will bend every
effort toward the further development
of their other lines of business. which
already enjoy an enviable reputation
far and wide.
| In addition to the regular jewelry
store as heretofore conducted, Davis
Skinner will equip in the near future
first. class optical parlors in a part OF
the room heretofore occupied as china
store and which will be directly con
nected with the jewelry store. further
particulars concerning which announce
ments will be made in the near future
In the meantime. the optical bushes!
