Installed by Melville Smith E. Son

The new sound proof booth for dem
onstrating graphophones that has just
been installed on the first floor of the
music store of Melville Smith & Son
is attracting much attention. 1t is the
first of its kind to be built in this city
and will be great advantage as well

ed with other sounds from the street.
This enterprising firm carries the
Columbia grafanolas and have the rec
ords each month as they are issued
and are always glad to have anyone
come in to hear them.
Just at this season when so many
are purchasing graphophones as gifts
for relatives and friends and. on ac-
count of having so many pianos in
stock on two floors of their store, Mel

Early Predicted Her Brilliant Career.

| Among the all-star cast of the Com
edy Players coming to City Hall Tues
day evening, Dec. 8, it is probable that
Miss Ruth Vivian is the best known
in the theatrical world, although Mr..
Geo. C. Somnes, late of the William
Faversham Company, is a universal
favorte.
Miss Vivian, the most prominent
member of the famous Vivian family
of English players, is sister of Perci-
val Vivian, the star of first magnitude
who made such a hit in Augusta two
years ago as TONY Lumpkin" in "she
Stoops to Conquer
Miss Vivian was born in England
and her theatrical career has been a
succession of triumphs She has
played over 800 characters and has had
the unusual honor of appearing before
many of Great Britains Royal Fami-
lies including King Edward VII, the
late Duke and Duchess of Teck, their
Royal Highnesses Princess Louise,
Prince Henry of Battenburg, Prin-
cess Victoria of Battenburg and Prin-
cess Ena, now Queen of Spain.
Her stage career began at an early
age, and it was in a London Police
Court where she applied for a license
to appear on the stage (being under
age) that she first realized the import
ance of being an actress. She was so
small that only the top of her bonnet
could be seen above the witness bcx,
making ii necessary to place her in a
chair beside the judge who said when
Sranting the license, Il hear of your
being a little artist now, and expect
some day to hear of your being a big

words meant to the little girl AS to
how his prophecy came true will he
shown to all who go to City Hall next
! Tuesday evening and see Miss Ruth
Vivian, one of the most talented ar
lists now before the public.
After many successes on the London
stage, Miss Vivian came to this coun-
try at the earnest request OF MIR. Ben
Greet to take leading parts in his New
York productions of comedies. Few
artists have received more praise from
the New York critics. Among those
who have written most enthusiastically
of her work is the famous Allan Dale.
