ALL kEENEY ACTS
 ARE HEADLINERS

While keeney's bill this week is virtually without a headliner, all the acts being of a type that entities them to top position on the program in any first class vaudeville house, the act of The Three Romans should get the place of the nominal leader At least, if applause is to be taken as a criterion, the patrons of the theater. regard them as the most sat isfactory performers and they accord them most cordial welcome every night. The specially is a novel one and is presented in artistic fashion. The performers are dressed as gladiators and they look like splendid physical specimens. They do some remarkably clever work on ladders, exhibiting exceptional skill and strength.
 The Seven Mischief makers have an old act, but they have dressed it in new clothes and as result there Is an excellent improvement. It is the nevery-dying school room special ty with the ever funny German pro. lessor and his assortment of pie turesque pupils. The songs used are of the popular variety and the jokes and pranks of the scholars enlivens the turn great deal.
 Hibbet and Myers have chara cter sketch that is entertaining in every respect.
 Billy Court is another of this weeks Dig hits. Billy is a clever Scotch comedian and his songs and stories given in quaint dialect get plenty of laughs. Billy is the nearest approach to the Harry Lauder type of comedian that has ever appeared in this city.
 Kellen and Clark, musicians and comedians, also give satisfaction. They are skilled entertainers and their work well merits the praise it is re- ceiving.

Acting Herself More Comfortable
 Than Watching Husband Perform
Mrs. Otis Skinner, Who Has Returned to the Stage Tells of Agonizing Suspense Associated With Being
 Wife of An Actor.

"l can imagine nothing more ago. ! nizing than watching first night, when ones husband is the star. It is amillion times worse than ones own first night. For seven years 1 have borne with agonizing suspense the testing first nights, and now-I am one with it again, and with my hus- band.'
 Mrs. Otis Skinner, who is appearing on the stage in The Silent Voice. V for the first time in seven years, was explaining how it feels to come back.'' She returns with fresh enthu- siasms and new viewpoints after her contented life in the little home at Bryn Mawr, Pa. She felt no urgent desire to return to the stage until her husband. who is starring in ''The Si- lent Voice. told her of. his plans for her. Then she found the old enthu- siasm was still surprisingly present. Did l miss acting? Not a bit! Do you know what 1 missed more than anything else? l am ashamed to tell you," and she smiled in humorous ac-
 knowledgment of guilt. "I miss the glorious vagabondage of the road. You know we actors have always been known as the mummers and gypsies

MINISTRIES
 AT PARSONS TODAY

Neil O'Brien and his American min strels were the attraction at the Parsons theater in Hartford this af- ternoon and will be there again this evening. The show has now been before the public for three years and that minstrelsy still retains a place in the regard and affections of theater- goers is shown by the success which has attended it all this while This season that star and his manager, Os- car F. Hodge, promise a brilliant and costly entertainment, clean and whole some, with many elaborate features and a company selected with the greatest care and costuming The new first part scene is said to be a win ner and is called '"rhe Futurist Ata- Her. It will show. in the semi -circle, half hundred of minstrelsys best comedians, vocalists and instrumental lsts, prominent among whom will be Harry Won Fossen, Eddie Mazier, Pete Detze1, Caspar Nowak, Doran and Strong and score of those famous blackface comedians and large chor- us in addition to a number of excel lent soloists under the leadership of Frank Fuhrer.
 Crane Wilbur, the hero of the Ec- 1ectic. serial, The Perils of Pauline," will be at Parsons theater Friday and Saturday with both matinee and even ing performances. Comparing the art of the legitimate actor and the camera star, he said recently: "Per- sonality is even more essential to the artist appearing before the camera In the drama an actor may to a de- gree cover Up his lack of personality with an agreeable voice, something to which the picture artist cannot have recourse. A fine appearance, clever pantomime and poise help a great deal, but these alone will never bring one to the top. An illustration of the power of personality may be found in my own case. | have done all my best work when feeling like a fight ing cock. If man is breeding over some trouble it is impossible for him to portray sorrow in his acting. All emotions must be feigned rather than felt and this is where personality comes in.''

WIDOW BY PROXY'
 NEW LYCEUM PLAY

The Conspiracy" by Robert Baker ent weeks attraction at the Lyceum proves to be a highly popular and pleasing play. Most interesting in deed is the scene between Miss Cal laway as Margaret Holt and MT Cross as John Howell. a newspaper reporter. Margaret Holt's story of the murder is told with such impres- sive naturalness that one forgets for the time being that it is a dramatic performance. The scene betw cen Miss Holt aed Winthrop Clavering (Mr. Birch) in which the old anna teur detective and story writer dis covers it was she who committed the crime, is also cleverly done The Conspiracy is play with few equals in gripping interest.
 The Widow by Proxy will oe the next weeks attra ction. This play. with May Irwin assuming the role ot Gloria Grey, closed it's road engage ment only last Saturday and the fact that it is offered here so soon illus~ trates that Manager Birch is eivin;, the very latest and best of attrac- tion. ''The Widow by Proxy is without doubt, the finest comedy of fered in years Few plays so pro- life in humor and comedy situations have been written for the stage. Every speech is a mirth provoker and those who fail to see it will miss a treat of a life time. Millions have laughed over the bright lines. It played continuously for two years. having had long runs in the principal cities of the country. The Widow by PrOxN' tells a most interesting and fascinating story, which will be enjoyed by all.

keeper. That she knows how to cook, and do every other kind of hCusework. is a well esta blished fact and some time pen pictures concern ing her domesticity, have inspired real e4oquence, as the following treatment from the Chicago Inter Ocean" will show:
 Most opera singers have the 'ar- tlstic temperament to a marked de- gree. It causes them to do many ab- surd things and prevents them from doing many useful things. One of the greatest of singers, however, one ranked by many competent critics as the greatest artist of them all. does not despise the ordinary things of life. but rather glories in them. Attn ough this may be rank heresy from the artistic temperament point of view, it is not improbable her many-sided- ness and her well-rounded life are strong contributory causes toward making her the great artist she is"
 "The artist is Madame Schumann- Heink, the great contralto. She is in Chicago and was here Christmas Eve and Christmas day with four of her children. For them she provided with her own hands, their Christmas dinner cooking and serving it in true Deutsche haus-frau fashion. and glorying in it. Her children will re- member and love Madame Schumann- Heink for her mot herliness and housewifely ability far more than for her glorious voice and superb act il,g." Schumann- -Heink appears in Hartford with MacNamara, the Irish tenor in the World Famous Artists series. Tickets and all information can be had at Pierces music store, this city. Phone 1117-2.

PLENTY OF COMEDY IN
 THE RAGGED EARL"

One of the best comedy dramas ever presented in motion pictures was seen yesterday at Fox's, in the picturi- zation of The Ragged Earl, with Andrew Mack playing the stellar role The comedy drama of Irish life is replete with side-splitting comedy situations, and abounds with pretty heart interest and sentiment. Andrew Mack is excellent in the character of the Earl of Kildare, better known as the Ragged Earl, and injects plenty of comedy into the difficult role which he portrays in truly artistic fashion. Ormi Hawley as Kathleen Fitzmorris is sweet and vivacious and Lord Wildbrook, an old roue is excellently taken care of by Edward Piel who gets all there is out of the character, making the production a real big hit which was immensely enjoyed by the Fox patrons The second episode of "The Exploits of Elaine the new Hearst-Pathe serial showing the rem edv of mercy applied to the work of evil and the startling use of science by The Clutching Hand" startles and enthralls, and has given new fgure to the screen, the super-criminal, who comes and goes as unseen and as free as the air and who leaves desolation and pill lage behind him. Both the Ragged Earl' and Exploits of Elaine will also be shown today with a change of the balance of the reels
 For tomorrow and Saturday Will liam Fox presents William Farnum, the creator Of Ben Hur in Henri Hernsteins masterpiece Samson" produced at the William Fox studios in New York. Reused to titanic wrath by the falseness of his friends and by the fact that the wife he wor- ships spurns his devotion, This Mod ern Samson pulls down the structure of wealth that he himself erected, ruins the rake who is pursuing his wife, and crushes the crowd of syco- phants, and hangers-on that his bene- volence has enriched Samson rises triumphant over the wreck or his fortunes and secure in the love or his wife and with full faith in her. sets his face toward a fresh pegln- ming.
