A Regular Show at the Lyric.

Here at the hottest time of the year,
in the very midst OF cantaloupe sea-
son, comes the Lyric and cuts loose
with ono of the best bills offered since
all the actors went into pictures
Even its weakest acts have something
in the way Of speed, at least
Inza and Lorella open the show with
knockabout tu,nbling turn. Their
comedy is that OF the circus, slap-
sticky, but their tumbling is out of tho
ordinary. They are followed by "Coun-
tess" Grazia Nardin. an attractive
looking young woman, who plays tho
accordion TO the delight OF the au-
dience, and in a manner that demon
strates again the artistry of Pietro and
Dciro.
In the comedy sketch. 'All Wrong"
Frances Nordstrom-some time leading
woman for Larry" Giffcn-offers n de-
cidcd novelty, from her own PEN
Surprises are unusual enough in vaudc-
Vile nowadays, but "All Wrong" has
for its climax rather startling sur

The Midnight Rollickers. six men

The Coloniars feature photoplay of
fering for to-day and tomorrow is
the Big Four" production Of Charles
klein's drama OF political intrigue
and municipal graft The District At
torney." II is said that this photo
drama retains all the punch that dis
tinguished tho stage version and pro-
vides many thrills aside from the in
terest supplied by the romance that
runs through the play. George Soule
Spencer and Dorothy Bernard will be
seen in the principal roles.
Little Marguerite Clark In the lead
ing part in Seven Sisters" a film adap
tation of the play of the same name,
attracted crowds yesterday to the Lit
tie Theater. where she remains the fea-
ture throughout the week. Seven
Sisters" is clean and diverting COM
edy, and Miss Clark is admirably
adapted to the role in which she ap-
pears. which requires winsomeness as
we'll as acting ability. 1t is n good
story, we'll produced for the screen.
Stuart Holmes and Claire Whitney
will be seen at the Isis to-day only
in the film version of Victoria Crosss
glaring story, "Life's Shop Window"
This novel was much talked about when
1t was first published. II is pretty

lions in which the book abounds are
