At THE NOVELTY.

Anita and Willish present the OPEN
ing bill at the Novelty this week, \
posing and juggling comedy act. and
it is good enough to be the headliner
or closing act. Willish appears as a
German comedian and in that form
and condition he does some mighty
funny and clever things. Finally he
tires Of his work and turns to a
penny-in-the-slot moving picture ma
chine, Clues his eye to the crack and
turns the crank. Then bling! up goes
a little curtain in the back drop and
there stands revealed under the spot
light switched on suddenly q modern
Venus dressed like the Venus of old,
which is to say hardly dressed at all.
The juggler was delighted with his
dience. Then this juggler goes forth
and picks vanishing coins out Of the
air and turns again to his picture
machine and Venus appears in an
other pose but the same wardrobe.
He has class, this juggler. and his
picture machine is the goods.
Glendower and Manion have a little
Christmas act, a drama, which is
fairly well acted. Frank Parish Is a
jumper and dancer of ability and per-
forms some difficult feats in that art.
Schrode and Mulvey are in comedy
skit, "A Theatrical Agency" This is
q funny act, especially Schrode's ma
neuvers with a suspicious looking key.
The Novelty camera mans pictures
are good this week, showing clear
pictures of the county track meet and
other events. For Thursday, Friday
and Saturday, 1.-THE Girl From Broad
way" q musical tabloid. will be pre-
scented.

AT THE ORPHEUM.

Polly of the Follies.'' musical
comedy in two scenes. is the offering at
the Orpheum for the first three days
of this week. The Susann Carter COM
pany puts on Billie Burke's success
we'll and it is the best production pre-
sented by them so far at the Orpheum.
The chorus has been enlarged since
last week and the costumes are origi-
nal and somewhat scanty.
The tab has a comedy plot to 1t, one
that produces some good complica-
tions. The part of the sheriff is espe-
cially well taken. AL Philips takes a
minor comedy part as the servant, but
is able to get by with his acting. Su-
Sam Carter. who has a pleasing voice,
leads well in the tab.
AL Berg and Fred Fesenback have a
vaudeville act between the scenes.
Fesenback has high tenor voice which
he controls with ease. Berg is a come
dian. lanky one. well made up last
night. AS a charming young lady,
Berg scores hit.
