If you want to enjoy a good laugh
visit the Lyric Theatre the last half
of this week. There a vaudeville and
motion picture bill. composed almost
entirely of comedy. is being pre-
sented
OF the six acts making up the
vaudeville bill five of them are meant
for laughing purposes and live up
to that policy to no small degree.
Contained In the bill are comedy ac-
robats, comedy singers and talkfest
artists, comedy sketch and come
dian
The headline act on the vaudeville
program is a clever farce comedy,
which is enacted with credit by Billy
De Croteau and company. Nat Brown
Is a big laugh evoker in his role Of
THE Congressman
The Four xela Sisters appear in a.
singing and dancing act of good
quality. Ring and Baker are pleas
ing as comedy singers and all around
entertainers. Harry Bachelor gives
an instrumental musical program of
merit. Loro and Payne provoke
humor with a comedy acrobatic act.
The principal attraction on the
motion picture bill is a thrilling
photo-play entitled THE Swamp

for the first half of next week

KEENEYS

Keeney's Theatre presents another
one of It's regular" bills for the last
half of the week, and so excellent is
the list of attractions. from top to
bottom that it is hard to pick head
liner Three acts are really tie for
the top position, "A Day in Erin"
May Feeney and THE Banjo
Phiends.'
May Feeney hands the audience a
huge surprise both on her entrance
and exit. Naturally, her name sug-
gests a person of Irish extraction,
but when she appears she is a very
handsome negress. She sings a num-
Der of negro songs with fine effect,
and with such a splendid dialect
that the audience decides she really
is a negress. But they are disillu-
stoned when she makes her exit just
after pulling off a pair of long gloves
revealing white arms and hands.
1.-THE Banjo Phiends," three male
banioists and female pianist and
violinist, do clever act in which the
classical and ragtime music is well
rendered "a Day in Erin" portrayed
by Miss Enid Morel, soprano; Walter
Greene, baritone and Miss Helen j.
White, harpist, is dainty little con-
ception, a real novelty in the enter
tainment line during which the three
performers appear to good advantage
in songs and musical numbers. the
act Is very short and that is pity.
as the audience could stand more of
It.
Brown and Moulton do an excep-
tionally good pianologue, the best
feature of the act being that all the
songs are brand new. Cross and
Mooney were also pleasing in the
same sort of an act. Folly and
Walters do a funny trick bicycle act.
Watson brothers do a dancing turn
that is above the average of that
sort of acts, while Dolf and Dolf,
two strong men, astonished the audi
ence Yesterday with their wonderful

gram to the minister of war says that
the French victory appears more and

In a further statement he says that
THE German army is retfeating before
the French left, having evacuated
Amiens and falling back eastward be-
tween Scissors and Rheims In the
centre the Germans still hold the south
end of the forest of Argonne, but west
of this they have retired northward
from Nesle and are making no attempt
to defend the Marine to the southeast
Of Rheims. On the right wing the Ger

are in retreat beyond st. Die and
