B. F. KEITH'S.

The general excellence OF the latter
half of the program at Keith's this
week serves to balance the bill. Of
which the opening numbers are not
above the average.
While Blanche Walsh Is featured by
the management with her tabloid ver-
sion OF "The Woman in the Case"
Stuart Barnes is easily the most popular
in the esteem Of the audience. Mr..
Barnes whole monologue and his two
songs are centered on the unhappy ex-
perences of a married nan. 1t Is prac-
tically the same as he has used for
nc re than a season and while this
might indicate the desirability OF re-
juvenation still the nOnologist re-
mains one Of the most thoroughly en-
tertaining on the rolls from which
keith's draws.
Toby Claude uses La Petite Re-
vuette" as a vehicle on which to carry
the songs in which she earned fame
during the past decade. She Is ably as
sisted by William Smythe.
The Arnaut Brothers, In their gymnas-
tic act. during which they fiddle are
among the best tumbling performers in
the business.
Coakley. Hanvey and Dunlevy, in an
accepted minstrel act: Martin and Fa-
brina. songs and dances; Reinie Davis.
in mediocre singing: the Lonesome Las
sizes, in a musical comedy act, and the
weekly pictorial complete the bill.

the stellar role. started les Washington
run at the Columbia Theater last even-

Around wealth of musical numbers
Is woven the story Of waiter who in
herited a fortune just after he had
signed twenty-year contract at. the
instigation Of his willy proprietor who
knew OF the windfall about to come to
him.
In the second act the waiter (played
by John T.. Young) is transported to the
Restaurant Grand Gala, In Paris, whore
he Is found buying caviar at lightning
speed for various objects of his amatory
proclivities. There also he IL con-
frontcd by the trio who laid special
claim to his affections, Yvonne, daugh-
ter Of his former employer at the Little
Cafe; Katziolinka. a Hungarian singer,
and Gaby Gauffrette. queen of the night
restaurants.
In the third act ne is confronted with
a duel as the result Of a jealousy of
Prince Max. Of Galmania, whose duel
ing major domo furnished much of the
comedy Of the latter portion Of the
piece.
John Z. Young's drolleries in the part
OF the walter were amusing. Blanche
Morrison was katziolinka, Marjorie
Gateson sang the role of Yvonnc, and
Edna Z. Munsey. was Gaby Gaufrctte.
Serve the Caviar sung by Mr..
Young and the chorus, was one OF the
most catchy musical numbers Of the
piece.
Assisting Mr.. Young In the fun-pro.
viding business was Maxfield Moree. al
B!gredOn, promoter, and Maurice
Cass. as Philtbert. proprietor OF the
Little Cafe.
The six Bellies Of Hungary made
