can factions across the border from

KEENEY'S

The feature act of a splendid eight
act bill at Keeney's during the first
part of this week is a sketch of a
marital tangle. which is well enacted
by a company OF four, billed as Harry
Wilson x Company. The plot deals
with two divorced couples who re-
marry. changing partners as 1t were.
BY chance they meet in the same
house during a thunderstorm, with
no way of communicating with the
outside world, and the complications
that arise are very funny. The play
lets ends with the estranged pairs
reunited as originally and playing
cards in harmony.
Another act that made q hit
last night was that of the Three
Musketeers The trio disperses music
and comedy with lavish hand,
especially the two comedians, one a
slim young man and the other ESQ
pounds of harmony"
Other good acts on the bill are
Mack and Pingree, entertainers of a
cabaret order; Howard and Fields
NTinstrels. a complete minstrel show
in a dining car; Jack Levy and his
symphony Girls. instrumental enter
tainers; Vera de Basinl, cleVer
songstress: Barnes and Robinson, IN
a combination singing and taking
act and Romal and Delano, pleas
ing couple. The motion pictures are
also good
