B. F. Keith's.

So many excellent acts appeared at
keith's Theater last night that if left
to a vote of the audience the top
liner would be CLOSE picking be-
tween at least four. Ability and repu-
tation give the leading place to Nat
Goodwin, who made one of the big
gest hits of his career. Dressed in
evening attire, the comedian told new
and original stories in his own inim-
table way to constantly laughing
audience, and he was recalled until he
was almost exhausted. His recitation
of Kipling's "Gunga Din" in dialect
was pronounced feature of his
repertoire.
Emma Carus, assisted by Noel
Stuart, returned with new songs and
| original sayings easily winning her
way into the admiration of the audi
ence. 1mpromptu remarks to people
down front appeared to add materially

last night. gave to Lena Rivers" those
touches of Characterization from the
quaint New England town to the blue
grass country of Kentucky that have
made the play a perennial success.
Fine technique and emotional acting
such as the author intended to bring
out the intrigue. jealousy and superior
ity SO necessary to the tale were fea-
lures of the performance.
AS Lena Rivers. Miss Jane Ware,
crowded house. gave an excellent in
depreciation of the little New England
girl, whose birthright was questioned,
and who was unused to life with per-
sons of high station: Miss Maude

lent in a Characterization which re-
CURED the display of New England
breeding in the control of temper
against the blue bloods of Kentucky.
Gale Satterlee. as Joel Slocum, kept
the audience in constant laughter BY
his quaint lovemaking and queer
philosophy. Credit is due also for the
success of the performance to good

The play winds around the history of
Lena Rivers, who came into the world
under somewhat questionable circum-
stances in New England town. Raised
under the guardianship of Granny
Nichols, the family goes to Kentucky
to live with Granny's son. Lena's beau
ty and character draw to her the young
men OF the place. and she arouses the
jealousy of cousin, who has always
disowned her in a manner. The play is a
blend Of touching pathos and laughab BILE
