spector in the person of Charles
Harris.
The police declare that Aline
Graham and Captain Holbrook were
the last visitors to the apartment OF
Flagg, the blackmailer, a part taken
by Mario Majeroni. Miss Graham
really believes that Flagg was killed
by a paper file, with which she
stabbed him, but Captain Holbrook,
playing for time, diverts the blame to
himself and succeeds in his purpose
until 1t is proven that Flagg's
wound was superficial and that the
real cause of his death was heart
failure brought on by excitement.
Then it comes about that the mock
marriage was no mock marriage at
all and that q ceremony had been
performed. Captain Holbrook comes
TO her rescue again with the infor

THE MAJESTIC

The Majestic Theatre is offering an
exceptionally entertaining vaudeville
program this week. The headline act
deserves particular mention inasmuch
as 1t Is well enacted and staged. 1t
is entitled "A Day in Camp" The
sketch received big ovation from
the audience last night.
"A Day in Camp" is a timely
military act and Is ably carried out
by a cast of five persons. A well de-
fined plot runs through the piece and
Is made up of exciting situations.
The success of the piece is largely
due to the good cast.
Anna Marie, a local GIRL is heard
in a pleasing vocal skit. John
Cooper Is very entertaining as q VEN
triloquist. Love and Haight, an act
which has been seen in this city on
several occasions. received much APP
plause last night. The Harris Twins
make good as contortionists. Macis
and Airline entertain with singing
and dancing speciality. Another good
dancing act is offered by Root and
White, From Twilight to Dawn" is
the title of a novel singing act.

The company stages a two-act
musical comedy. entitled I'm Dreamy
Mexico in ereditable manner.
There Is much mirth In the piece, yet
a good plot Is unravaled during It's en-
action. The comedy is divided into
two acts and four scenes that are
chuck full of good laughing material.
Watson and Simmons cause no end
of laughter with their impersonations
of "Brushsky" and "Rushsky." They
are clever mimics and come to
Miners with many new jokes and
stories. Their funny antics cause as
much mirth as do their witty say
ings.
The chorus is large and includes
many pretty faces. During the two
acts an entertaining olio OF vaude-
vile is introduced. The list includes
Helen Van Buren,, Joseph X. Watson
and company and the Temple Quar-

AT BAY" AT ORPHEUM, BY
FORSBERG PLAYERS, SCORES

There is a strong moral in AT
Bay four-act drama from the
pen of George Scarborough, which is
being produced by the Fors5erg
Players at the Orpheum Theatre this
week. 1t tells q story of a young girl
inveigled in a mock marriage, who
lays herself open to blackmail by
writing compromising letter; her
nocturnal visit TO the blaekmailers
home. and struggle there which
leads to his death. Everything ends,
however, in a happy finale.
The Forsberg Players have been
combining themselves to comedy
lately, and "At Bay" serves to show
that they are capable of handling
heavier roles. 1t is another triumph
for Miss Florence Gear, the new
leading woman, who plays the part
of Aline Graham, the blackmaiier's
victim, and Charles Dlngle, who, in
the person of Captain Holbrook, a
retired army officer, seeks her hand
and finally wins il after freeing her
from the secret service men who
seek to connect her with the death
of the blackmailer.
One of the strongest scenes in the
play is a battle of wits. in which

PROCTOR's

The daily change of photo drama
inaugurated at Proetor's Park Place
Theatre yesterday promises to be-
come widely popular with the numer-
Gus motion picture patrons who like
to go to the movies more than once
or twice a week and who are fond of
variety and oarefully-selected short
subjects in preference to often
tediously -long offerings.
Well-fllled houses found the pro-
gram at the Park Place yesterday
one to gladden. the heart of the most
discriminating playgoer. Drama.
comedy and novelty were carefully
blended into speedy and thoroughly
entertaining program. The Kalem
Company, long famous for its great
Indian life dramas, provided the
feature of the bill in somewhat
sensational, yet thoroughly interest
ing. drama of Indian folklore called
"The Vanishing Tribe" Many or
Vitagraph's famous comedians were
introduced into on extremely clever
and laughable comedy on the sea-
shore, while a unique cartoon photo
play Introducing the much-famed
Buster Brown also came in for a
great amount of laughter. Combined
with splendid music and the at
traetive environments of the beauti-
full playhouse. there was little left to
wish for in the way of good enter
tainment.

vaudeville bills that that popular

an elaborate operate production
called "a Dream of the Orient"
Full of delightful lyrics, charming
sentiment and that air of mystery
which pervades all things Oriental,
this unusual vaudeville production
created an impression that will not
soon be forgotten. There is COM

which features Nine. Makaranka. a

of laughs. Lyrica, an exceedingly
capable and charming songstress,
made many admirers with her dash
ing grace and effective rendition of
many new and catchy songs. The
Three Zechs in thrilling aerial ex-
hibition held everyone spellbound
with feats seldom seen on local

The plot of 1.-THE Patchwork Girl

quent intervals as reception commit
tee to some three dozen pretty girls
who persist in doing the most beauti-
full dance evolutions and singing
songs while he is busy trying to run a
department store. 1t all works out
well In the end, though, when he
and the customers join in the festivi-
ties and forget all about the store
and business.
This, however, is but one of three
funny acts of THE Big City Bur-
lesquers,' the funniest, perhaps being
"The Woman Haters," wherein Nat
and Sol Fields and Dick Thomas
enact the roles of bitter enemies of
the fair sex and experience a lot of
trouble warding off intrusions of the
enemy" One of the "enemies' in
particular enacted by Miss Margie
Demarest, proves to be SO bothersome
that all three, to get rid of her, fall
in love and then reproach one an
other for treason to the principles of
hatred, in which they are leagued
against all women.
Another act, Fields and Fields in
Paris" is burlesque upon the Weber
and Fields burlesque of Hickey
Pokey," which was seen in this city
last year.
Tnterspersed through the show there
are high-class vaudeville. numbers,
such as whirlwind dancing by Boris
and Helena, operate selections by the
Countess Won Twiller, Australian

and some remarkable piano playinc;

The theatre was crowded at both
matinee and evening performances At
the matinee there were many women
with children.
Special attention was paid to the
gowning of the women and a good
result is shown The song, Ginger,
rendered by Miss Pearl Lowell during

servedly encored. The electrical effects
during the entire performance are

BY ADELINE oARRIoK WELLS.

BY ADELINE CARRICK WELLS.
The law of contrast, always more
or less in evidence, fairly shouted its
existence last night at the Shubert
Theatre, where j. Hartley Manners S
Peg o. My Heart" opened for q
weeks run. Last weeks Offering at
this house brought forth such adjec-
tives as morbid" "overdrawn'' and
"unwholesome;" but when we think
of Peg" words like Clean" sweet
and refreshing run riot in our
brains.
Writers of plays of the sensational
order should take leaf from the
book of J. Hartley Manners. Watch
ing Peg o. My Heart" il should not
take them long to discover that the
modern taste for questionable dra-
matte offerings is but phase through
Which the public is passing, and that
Its appreciation of what is good and
clean has not been annihilated, only
dulled. Like the mind of a person
who has been tempted into lowering
his standard of conduct, only to feel
rernorse and disgust and TO come
back to himself with an overwhelm-
ing desire for goodness and bigger,
wiser appreciation OF the things that
really count.
The public is regaining its proper
perspective, thank goodness! That ii
never lost 1t altogether is evidenced
by the vogue of peg o. My Heart
and few--a very, very few-offerings
of it's sort.
The story of Peg is rather we'll
known to those who are interested in
things theatrical. Pegs mother was
an Engishwoman of birth as they
say over there, who ran away with a
care-free, happy go-lucky Irishman,
who took her to America and gave
her happiness, and little else. When
she died he brought up Peg as best
he could, part of the time living in
New York and part of it lecturlng
through ireland on the subject of
freedom.
Pegs mothers brother made for
tune, and when dying he thought of
the sister he had not seen in years,
and made Peg his heiress. She was to
be educated In an English family,
preferably that of another sister, and
at the age of twenty-one was to re-
ceive five thousand pounds annually.
