Cosmos.

Six Water Nymphs," who are not only
expert swimmers and divers. but fine ath-
letes as well, furnish a rare aquatic eX-
hibition at the Cosmos Theater this week
The great tank of real water in which
their capers are presented is artistically
set in d scene of mountain rocks. with a
village background, and from the heights
the divers plunge into the water in a
series of novel and interesting feats. The
exhibition is throughout a good one and
probably maintains the claim that it is
the biggest aquatic feature on the vaude
vile stage. Gruet and Gruet. well known
burlesque performers. present a very
laughable sketch entitled Sam at the
Circus besides playing the cornet. from
bone, French horn and clarinet like art
lists. in some pretty selections. Virtuosity
on the characterization is pleasingly fur
nished by Fossita, the clown king Of
the instrument" Madelyn Nash is a
good singer of sentimental and cabaret
songs, and Lloyd and Hayden quite enter
tanning with their novel dances of the
day. The wonderful Analysis of Motion
film with which the Pathes have startled
the moving picture world, is one of the
moving picture features with the Pathe

week, furnish a new show from start to
finish. From the rise of the curtain un-

ment of the entertainment. Robinson
and Sullivan appear as a wealthy Ger
man merchant and his son. Many good
laughs are extracted from the peculiar
situations which follow the TRANSFORMED
ton of the two, the father, by some
weird and wonderful trick becoming the
son and vice versa
Libby Blondelle, heading the feminine
cast, was hit at both performances yes

plea sing stage presence. The other prin-
cipal members of the cast, whose work
is really well above the average, are

An exceptionally good olio starts with
Frank Martin and Mabel Lee, in a pleas
ing song and dance number. followed by

five members of the chorus, who kept
the audience laughing for fifteen min

a novelty in musical acts, and the Olio
concludes with Charles Robinson in

short but up to the standard set by the
earlier performance. large number of
popular songs are sung all through the
show, with large and clever chorus in
a variety of gorgeous costumes support

unusual scenic effects are introduced, one

board.

several times before. Wallingford,
whose profession is separating the un-
wary from their money blows into
Battlesburg, a bucolic community, where
the men of means have locks on their
coin purses and where the height of
dissipation for the young people is to
go down to the depot and see the train
come in.
Wallingfords purpose in coming is to
operate in his own peculiar way upon the
inhabitants, He meets the real girl,
however, falls in love with her-she re-
ocating-and his plans are changed
so that Battlesburg profits from his visit
by the esta blishment of several sound
commercial enterprises.
Daniel Hall has the part of Walling-
ford. and handles it well. while 'Blackie
Daw, his partner in iniquity. is portray
ed by La Verne Titus. George w. Bat
ties, the richest man in Battlesburg-and
the tightest-is played by Charles j. Dein
while the role of Fannie Jasper, the
stenographer, who turns Wallingford
from the evil of his ways. is in the capa-
BILE hands of Maude Bancroft. The sup
porting cast is good and the production
differs but little from that heretofore seen
in Washington in point of merit.

In one of the most pI etentious offerings

his initial bow last night at Polls inca

Columbia.

The Columbia Players may well feel
proud of the opening night of their fifth
annual season at the Columbia Theater.
The house was crowded with an audience
whose enthusiasm knew no discretion.
The play, Clothes" by Avery Hopwood
and Claiming Pollock was beautifully
staged and excellently presented, barring
the nervousness of some of the per-
formers, and the company. individually
and in the aggregate. is of such strength
and quality throughout as to insure a
fine season ahead of enjoyable stock pro-
auctions
While the warmest welcome was given
the favorites of previous seasons, begin
ming with a fine ovation to Carrie
Thatcher and Gaping the climax with
those to Stanley James, George Barber
and A. III. Van Buren,, the real interest
was conferred in the new leading woman
Helen Holmes, of whom so little has
been vouchsafed in the way of past PEI
formances by the management. Miss
Holmes took her place in the favor of the
audience from the start and held IL
throughout with an excellent perform
ance, especially in the emotional scenes
She has an attractive personality. mu-
steal voice we'll modulated and under con-
troll, and splendid talents as an actress.
She should prove an admirable successor
to those who have preceded her ana won
high favor with Washington audiences
The real honors of the evening. how
ever, We're Justly earned by Stanley
James, in role which gave him greater
opportunity than he has ever had since
he came with the Columbia Players. 1t
was splenddly enacted and showed the
intelligence and discretion Of a real art
list throughout. George Barber also gave
a fine character representation, while
Everett Butterfield. who, with his wife,
Miss Jessie Glendinnng, is back again
with the company, gave humorous char
acterization of society man in motley
garb.
Mr.. Van Buren, played the role of the
hero with polish and finish that made
it attractive. and John NJ. Kline was
equally satisfactory in the part assigned
to him Miss Dorothy Bernard made
much of a minor role and Miss Glendln-
ming treated the audience to a makeup
surprise on the stage graduating from
plain looking spinster into very attrac-
tive one under the deft touches of Miss
Holmes artistic hands.
Two of the three scenes Of the play
were richly and beautifully staged. There
was an abundance of all sorts of gowns
whose excellence in taste, material and
style can best be adjudged by the women
who applauded those who wore them
This. however, does not mean a compli-
ment to the grotesque and startling cos
tunes of the group of masqueraders who
trooped in and out on almost every prov
oca ton. The play is entertaining. much
more so than it's name would imply. and
Grace George made hit with it in the
role which Miss Holmes SO pleasingly
portrayed last evening.
