Bunny Jimmie Lee

Another of those affairs that Jimmy Lee has made popular in Phoenix was put over the footlights at the Coli scum last night. This time i was named "Whirl-a Gig" and it would have been hard to find a better title. It was good all the way through, but the most popular feature of the evening was the dancing specialy in Whic hthe modern ballroom dances were shown. The one step, hesitation, fox trot and the Argentine tango were all most attractively demonstrated by members of the chorus and some of the principals and they made the big gest hit of anything displayed by the company to date.
 Of course MT. Lee was popular in his funny Irish roel and the audience roared at his jokes; but he was not the only one who made a hit The whole company was good, the songs were excellent and the dancing car ried the house off it's feet.

Under the nus sian regime Poland has been hotpeu of discord and it remains to be seen whether the control of this occupleu territory is to be as difficult prob lem for Germany as it has been Tor Russia.

Good Prooram at Empress

The three part Kalem feature. The Destroyer proved to be q good one, according to the opinion of the many who saw it at the Elm press last evening. but how conld it be anything else when two such ac- tressses as Alice Hollister and Anna Nilsson, take the leading parts. This drama is of more than usual merit. "The Fable of the Intermittent Fus- ser," by George Ade. was very pleasing as these fables always are. The Selig drama in one part, The Iagnar Tramp" is one of the po- pular Selig animal pictures that are always interesting. The Vitagraph cartoon comedy, Bunny in Bunny land" drawn by Carl Lederer. proved to be very instructive as it shows how the cartoon films are produced To be sure it is funny, for how could it be anything else and be about dear old John Bunny, who has made the world laugh. This is the sup posed doings of Bunny in and around his home which is known as Runnyland. Tonight is the last time this program will be shown.
