FINE BILLS LISTED
AT WASHINGTON THEATRE

Two vaudeville programs of equal
merit will be seen at William Fox's
Washington Theatre next week. Both
bills will be made up of six high
grade vaudeville acts, in addition to
the usual bountiful program of the
latest photo plays.
Heading the bill for the first three
days of the week will be a clever
comedy offering, entitled THE Late
Mr.. Allen" The sketch will be en-
acted by a class of artists of high
merit. OF prominent mention also
will be the dancing act to be offered
by the -Four Xela Sisters, who are all
high artists in that particular line.
The Jimmy O'Brien Trio, three
well known mirth- provoking young
men, will offer a unique cabaret en-
tertainment entitled Fun in a Rats
keller" The trio are as good singers
as they are comedians. Ell Gordo, a
magician of high order, will give an
entertainment that is well worth see
ing. Two other good acts will round
out the first program.
For the second half of the week the
headliner distinction will go to a
cast of four women and one man,
who will present a novel minstrel en-
tertainment. The offering will be
labeled 1.-THE Broadway Minstrels,"
and will prove an innovation in the
art of minstrelsy. Equally merited
acts will complete the latter bill.
The popular playhouse is now con-
tinuing It's usual country store"

MISS RUSSELL IN
CLASSICS AT NEWARK

Those erstwhile playgoers who find
no enjoyment in the theatres current
morbid offerings of life's ugly phases
might be tempted next week by Miss
Annie Russelrs program of the mas
ter works of English comedy-reYived
and still vital and enjoyable II two

Russelrs venture with the standard
comedies. She comes to the Newark
Theatre Monday for a week. The en-
gagernent will open Monday night
with a new production of THE School
for Scandal" which has just been
added to her repertoire. Encouraged
by the support and approval OF cul-
tured theatre-goers, who have MADE
her enterprise possible (and popular)'
she has been fired with an ambition
to make one big and elaborate pro-
duction, A great deal of capital, made
from her other offerings, her exqui-
site taste and sure, artistic feeling,
have gone into this, her chief d'oeuyre.
The production of THE School for
Scandal represents a big and loving
labor, and is the elimination of An
ME RusselTs long service and artis-
tic achievement in the theatre.
The Newark engagement will open
Monday night with 1.-THE School for
Scandal" which will be repeated
Tuesday, Friday and Saturday nights
and Saturday matinee. Oliver Gold

"SAlOMY JANE" WILL BE
ORPHEUM ATTRACTION

Paul Armstrong, whose alias jim
my Valentine" and THE Deep Pur-
pie" have proved to the Orpheum
Theatre clientele his skill as a play
wright, adapted "Salomy Jane" from
Harte's charming story of a delicate
girl nature assuming strength under
the influence of semi-barbarous sur
roundings and in an atmosphere of
constant peril Salomy is quietly brave,
ingeniously resourceful, saucily indie
pendent and strikingly original.
Her gentleness in the opening scene,
where she plays with children, is no
less appealing than the furious pas
sion she displays when her innate
sense of womanly honor is offended.
Miss Brownell makes Of these contra
dictory characteristics a poetic crea-
ton of very high order. Her love
scenes with the unnamed hero, who is
admirably impersonated by Mr.. Stork,
are fine exhibitions Of team work" by
the eo-stars.
When Mr.. Liebler, the New York
manager. sent Mr. Stork the manu-
script, he enclosed a note, In which
he said: 1T am glad to send you the
manuscript Of 'Salomy Jane Having
seen Miss Brownell play both The
Thief and THE Gambler in New York
I can truthfully say that aside from
Miss Robson, IOr WnOm THIS play was
written, I can think of no one on the
stage today who would make a more
charming 'Salomy Jane than your
talented leading lady"
With remarkable fidelity Armstrong
presents the rough types of men and
women whom Harte depicted and fol-
lows the tale as 1t was written.
Among the characters introduced are
Yuba Bill, played by Mr.. Soraghan,
stage driver; Jack Marbury, the gen
teel gambler, in which Mr.. Van Sloan
will have one of the best roles he has
ever had: Colonel Starbettle, the fire.
eating lawyer from the South, a char
acter comedy role in which Mr.. Err
vim, our new comedian, will have an
other opportunity equal to the part he
had in ALMA" Madison Clay, Lar
rabee, Rufe Waters Red Pete Mrs.
Heath, the little Heath girls, and the
Smith boy. Miss Estelle will be cast
as the little Heath girl, aged ten.
That she can play with equal grace
and charm young woman or a tiny
child is one of the many things that
has endeared her to the Orpheum
patrons.
Not the least attractive feature of
"Salomy Jane" is its atmosphere. All
