Pretty Girls and Snappy Com
edy Feature Billy 0sman's
Tab Company.

Bubbling over with merriment and
clean wholesome fun, the Billy Os-
man Musical Comedy Company OPEN
ed weeks engagement at the Odeo
yesterday to large and appreciatiye
audience. Frequent outbursts Of
applause plainly indicated that this
clever organization in Introductory,
King of Zu Zu Land" was making
good in no uncertain terms.
Carrying Its own special scenery,
with chorus of pretty and stunning
ly costunied girls. good singers and
clever comedians the Osman COM
pany leaves little to be desired. The
show is full of catchy and tuneful
song hits, clever acting and bright,
snappy comedy. H. j. Pate, the
basso, has to respond to encores well
deserved as his voice has real quality.
The 0sman quartet makes decided
hit. Thomas McCracken, the come
dian of the company, certainly works
his number to perfection. His work
throughout is gilt-edged, getting
laughs in his own quiet way. Nellie
0sman knows how to sing and win
her audience and working in con-
junction with Barbara Gerst and a
well trained chorus. she puts her part
over In clever fashion.
There, will be an entire change OF
program tomorrow afternoon when
this clever company will present for
the first time in Clarksburg the mri-
steal comedy. 1.-TWO Royal Tramps."
David Belasco, in conjunction with
the Frohman Stock Company, has just
produced in Stamford, Conn.,, "Okla-
homa," by George Scarborough. The
play tells the story OF beautiful In
dian girl in love with rascally army
lieutenant, from whom she is rescued
by an Indian agent, also in love with
her. The story is said to be thrill
ing one. Lenore Ulrich plays the role
of the Indian girl, Lowell Sherman
that the lieutenant and John Miltern
that of the hero. Others in the play
are William .Courtleigh and Isabel
o'Madigan.
Standing room at premium for all
