WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE
 THIS WEEK.

THE COLISEUM is enjoying an era of prosperity such as it has not known in many a long day and the Ellis Musical Comedy company, which Bob. McGreer brought to town is the cause With such artists as Reina Vivienne, Earl Hall Frank Vack and Della Celia as the princi- : pal members of the company, their , offerings have proved immensely popular and have drawn immense audiences to the old house.
 There can be no question as to the supremacy of Vivienne over any prima donna who has yet been heard here in tabloid musical offerings. and in Earl Hall, the company has a comedian who is head and shoulders lead Strange as it may seem he is really funny and gets his comedy over without the aid of smut or nastiness and yet the people like him. As a character comedian Frank Vack has proved himself of real val ue and Della Celia is an excellent character woman. Marjory Shaw has a host of friends and Eddy l Young is valuable utility man. ] while Irene Barker is rapidly gain ! ing favor in engenue roles. Her dance with Eddie Young was one of | the big hits in the latest offering ! The Whirl of the World"
 The stage at the Coliseum is not | large enough to get any great stage | effects but within the next few days new lot of scenery will have been completed which artist McGreer believes will allow him to accom- plish a great deal in that line. number of new chorus girls have ar rived from the coast and will be seen in tomorrow nights new show, and everything possible is being done to strengthen the company and make it worthy of the four very cap able members who head it.
