Loew's BijOu

Although handicapped by the failure of the trunks to arrive and the loss of some of the special scenery, the artists billed for Loew's Bijou for the first half of this week entertained large crowds at each performance yesterday, The Three Rozellas have an excellent musical act. 'This Way Out" the pep pery little farce by Walter Percival, makes an instant hit and brings q good hand. Ed and Irene Lowry make the greatest hit of the entire bill with their nonsensical chatter and steps. The sketch has the ginger and is put across in excellent style.
 Goldie and Mack have an aerohatic dancing turn that is very pleasing, while Welch. Mealey and Montrose have a scream. Taken all in all 1t Is a splendid bill and the vaudeville bet ter than the average. even though the costumes and scenery were missing They will arrive today and the si,sw will undoubtedly be much better.
 Action in the truest sense of the word is to be seen in the great Tom Mix thriller which is offered as the feature screen offering for this week. It is a great story with an interest compelling plot laid in the great wild mountains which separate our own great country and Canada. Mix was never seen in greater production, nor has any play ever shown here brought more popular approval than "Ace High" Tom Mix shoots the rapids at the rate of fast express in frail canoe. the rushing torrent the wild snowstorm. the tow ering pine falling and crushing the Indian guide-are all faithfully reproduced in this picture.

MERCURY REACHES
 CENTURY MARK

Going up! The century mark was reached by the thin line of mercury yesterday for the first time in years. It was the hottest June F on record in Birmingham. Fair weather is promised by the weather man for today, and should this be the case. unless the middle part of the day happens to be filled with clouds. then Birming- ham is due for another rise and the smile of the laundryman grows.
 No cases of prostration from the heat were made yesterday, and it is not thought that this will hap pen here. ms the temperature at present is about as high as it ever gets. Only once in the history of Birmingham has the temperarure been greater than yesterday. that was on June 27. 1897. almost 20 years ago. when the mark of 10I degrees was reached.
