PLAZA,

Stewart Edward Whites ''The West rners,' the feature photoplay now being shown at the Plaza theatre, is a bully good picture. in the first place it was written by a man who knows his West thoroughly, has studied bor- der history and has utilized the same literary craftsmanship. In the sec ond place, this child of MT. Whites furtile brain has not suffered mal- treatment when it was escorted into flmland. The trouble with most Western dramas is either the lack of a halfway reasona ble plot or the who sacrifices all sense of proportion to the boosting of a hero star of varied and bloody deeds of valor sin g1e-handed, the other characters be- ing relegated to mere puppet roles and the tale regenerating into a mere one-man glorifcation. Director Ed ward Sloman has not erred in this fashion in his production, ''The West erners," and the result is a mighty in teresting drama.
 The Four Avalos. a quartet of mu- sicians who scored the hit of the bill last night. Their selections are well chosen and it is really a treat to hear them play. Jarrow, the orig inator of the lemon trick, came next in applause getting qualities. He kept the audience roaring throughout his performance. Emmett and Moore in a neat little skit, "A Bit of Blar- ney," have a pretty singing and talk ing act. MT. Emmetts voice is as

Theatre Rcv4eWS
PARK.

Looking over the cast of "The pears at the Park theatre, commence Inf Thursday, Nov 27, one is forciply impressed with it being one of the best in burlesque. Heading this ex- ceptional array of talent is the great est of all tramp comedians, Billy Arlington, who is too well known to need any introduction except to say that his ability as a fun-maker is of the most legitimate kind, his appear ance is always received with rounds of laughter and his unctious humor is contagious.
 There is Juliette Belmont, singing violinist, the winsome soubrette whose radiant smile and pleasing smile makes her a valuable member of the company. Louise Barlow, the stately prinna donna has an exceptional voica of rich, rare sweetness and of great volume.
 Ed. Johnston is a good foil for Mr. Arlington's witticisms and artist of no mean ability, being a clever singer and dancer. The Pall Mall Trio, classy singers of classy songs, their repertoire is an extensive one and up-to-dae, they are always pre- senting the latest of the most popu- lar songs. There is a large chorus of thirty, one of the best in bur lesque. The scenic equipment is of wonderful magniffcence, running riot of colors that equals any of the so-called high priced productions. The Ballet of the Allied Nations is the special feature this year and is one of the most pretentious offerings ever attempted on any stage.

Married" a comedy full of laughter. The play enjoyed a good run Tn New York city and is now also being shown on the screen. The authors, James Cullen and Lewis Alien Browne, took for their theme the honeymoon of a young bridal pair, and built around it all the humorous situations with delicacy and an ab- sence of the hazardous.
 Mss Mary Ann Dentier and Arthur Chatterdon are seen in the leading roles, that of the bride and groom, whose marriage is opposed by the groom's father. Because no minister would perform the ceremony, without the request of the groom's father, the bridal couple think it fortunate when they suddenly find a minister in their home, who is afterward found out to be a thief. The couple, with all good intentions, set out on their wedding trip and then telegrams, telephone messages, and other com- rnunications, telling them that the marriage is not legal, is treated as good jokes by the happily married pair A fire in the hotel makes mat ters even worse, and the couple finally minister was genuine one.
 Arthur Griffin and Mabel Griffith did excellent work as the worried parents. W. H. McDougan, as the stammering hotel clerk was amusing. The other characters had parts that helped the action and theme along.

 POLES.
 There may have been better pie lures put together than 'The Grim Game" which was shown with Hou- dini, the handcuff king, at Polls last night, but if there have been better ones we can't recall them. Here is master photoplay, bu41t of real, thrill ing material and constructed with cleverness and worked out by fea- ture cast. ''The Grim Game'' comes from the pen of Arthur Reeves, fa- nous for his Craig Kennedy stories.
 Thrill is piled upon thrill in this shocker," and the greatest thrill of all comes when Houdini leaps from one airp1ane to another, in midair. CMnging to a rope suspended thou sands of feet above the ground, the noted daredevil takes the chance and gets away with it. A moment later the airplanes crash, and go careening to the earth. If this isn't thrill enough, then nothing is.
 The supporting vaudeville program is eminently satisfactory, and there is at least one act which outclasses in all-round merit anything that has been booked here this fall. That is the team of Mcclellan and Carson both of them good skaters, and with Mcclellan putting over a quietly hu- Inorous line of talk that kept the audience in gales ot laughter. Here is a genuine comedian, as well as an artist who can perform wonders with the roller skates.
 Wilbur Mack and Company scored in a singing act which was interlard- ed with really clever comedy situa- tions and dialogue. The L'Estrange sisters proved to be singers of no mean ability, and they took hold of difficult bits of melody and sang them effectively. Viola Lewis and two other kids are 'tjazz babies'' who can keep the crowd in rare good humor, and Joe Schuyler's lariat act Is a pipin.
 And Fatty Arbuckle in ''The Hay seed" is another real hit on the bill.

'sParlor, Bedroom and
 Bath' at the Jefferson

i Of the numerous bedroom farces' that have enjoyed astonishing popularity in recent years. perhaps none has evoked more laughter than 'Parlor, Bedroom and Bath,v which was presented at the Jeff ferson theatre last night
 The piece has been seen here before, but judging from the way it was received last night, particularly the bilarious sec tnd act. it may survive for several sea- sons more The complications caused by a perfectly tame and "house-broke hus- hand trying to live up to his bogus repu- tation as trifler with women with a wicked past for no mere sinful purpose than to please his rather silly wife, are mirth provoking in the extreme The de sired object is gained that of keeping the young wife interested in her fraudu. lent spouse because she flatters herself that he is the soSPof mate she requires. but. mon dieuY what a mixup there is before matters are finally straightened out.

SEVERE WEATHER.

Long Predicted Cold Wave Hits Birmingham at Last.
 20 Degrees Predicted
By c. w. BOOTH.

Brrrr'-but it's going to be cold to- night, and the chilly north winds are going to whistle around the corners with increased force, causing us to creep as far down into our overcoats as we can.
 It is headed straight toward us this time, says the weather man, and there IS no escaping the wave that will hit the city late this evening with it's full iorce' and prepared to spend long so- Journ In the sunny south"
 severe" is the way the forecaster puts ii, not cnly could, but severe. and what will be the extent of the word severe can only be found when we are Tn the midst of the cold wave.

for her. finds Reggie apparently misbe- having himself. but the situation is dey oidedly complicated by Reggie 'eloping with the wrong woman.
 The second act of the farce is the live Hest of the three. but no play could main- tain itself for much more than one act at such speed. "Parlor. Bedroom and Bath" is somewhat risQue. and when not played expertly is apt to become coarse. but it Is undeniably funny. and none of the persons caught in such com promising situations is really bad or has any evil intentions, so the spectator must give them credit For their good inten- tions.
 The company is fair. without teing dis tinguished. with the exception of Harlan Briggs, who plays Reginald Irving. Mir. Briggs portrays the meek and unworldly husband in maze of intrigue in a way that stamps him as first rate comedian. Nathalie Dugan is good as Mrs. Irving. Elsie Southern is Nita I,eSiie, and Mary Kilcoyne works extremely hard as Polly Hathaway, reporter for a periodical of society gossip. She was responsible for great deAl of the more boisterous com edy. Foster William plays Haywood, the friend who arranges matters, and Jack Tucker in small part, gave neat

"A LITTLE MOTHER TO BE-
 OFFERING AT THE MAJESTIC

Mae Park has a part this week that few people would he capable of handling. As Mary Stevens, iii "A Little Mother-to-Se, she headlines a most delicate situation with great nicity, eliminating any sus- ,gestiveness, and adding anoher triumph to those already won by the popular Ma jestic players.
 7 The story of h1he Little Mother-to Be, is one of reed life Many unfortunite girls are handicapped by their parents no1 letting them receive callers in their own parlors rand are forced to see them out side of their homes. Such was the case of little Mary Stevens. She loved Leroy Bryant, but her church going housa cleaning aunt wouldn't permit him to see
 her at home. Mary was under age, ana therefore had to wait for her aunt cen
 sent t.oi her marriage. In the meanwhile
 her lover was called away to serve his
 country When she wrote him her great
 secret he hurried back to marry her, but
 the jealous lover who stayed at home
 changed telegram, making it appear that he was called back immediately to go
 overseas. People began to shun Mary $
 family and it looked as if the ehances
 for her grandfather election for mayo:
 were ruined forever, when it was discov- cred that the ltahy Mary had taken such an interest in was her own. Her granu- father gave up all hope of becoming
 mayor to stand by his grandchild. Then
 the paper which was owned by the stacker who loved Mary, came out and said that Leroy had been killed in acton Mary was ready to marry the stacker 10 save her grandfather, when the lover came back, invalided home, and they were married at last.
 The play is we'll balanced with huomr ana pathos sam Park plays the stut- tering' brother CT Mary, and Doris Bonita as Cherry Bash, adds laughs to his clever comsdy. Walter Wilson plays Leroy, ana looks wonderful in uniform.

AGAINST
 THE NEW HOG LAW
Negroes Ask Delay to Give Them Time to Dispose
 of Hogs

John R. Hornady, city comm. issioner returned yesterday from constitu- tional amendment campaign trip to Southern Alabama just in time to get tangled up in one of pr. J. D. Dowling's pet health ordinances-the new hog law
 A delegation of East Birmingham negroes appeared before the city com mission to protest against the hog law taking effect until some later time next year than January l, allowing them time to make some disposition of their porkers. The commission passed the buck to Commissioner Hornady with power to act.
 According-to Dr. Bowling, it has been demonstrated over and over again that several hundred pig pens as they have existed in the city for many years have been the source of the major pop ulation of flies.
 This ordinance" the health officer explained. permits hog owners, who have sufficient space, to indulge their fancy in the production of porkers. It

 Tn all fairness to those who find themselves. in possession of one or more hogs awaiting appropriate weather for slaughtering, it has been agreed that the operation and enforce ment of the new regulation would be postponed until January 1, 1920, ex- cept in the event that complaints are made relating to a nuisance. Every nuisance about which complaint is made will be dealt with on it's merits and the requirements of the law en- forced to the letter. After January l, 1920, every hog or swine of any age or description will be expected to be kept in strict compliance and arrests will sbe made in every case where viola ton is found.
 'grhe requirements of the law are that not less than 2500 square feet of well-drained ground space shall be available for each hog or pig, and that such ground space shall be kept clean and not permitted to become nuis- ance. When such amount of ground space is not available, then a pen must be provided with watertight floor constructed of concrete. cement or other mineral with a smooth surface. and connected to a sanitary sewer in accordance with the plumbing regula- tions. Such pens shall be thoroughly cleaned by washing with running water daily"
