"OH, BOY!" AT THE PALACE.

Albert Capellani, the noted director, states that "Oh, Bow which he pie turizcd from the musical comedy sue cess of the same name, can legiu- mately' lay claim to being that rare thing in motion pictures, production of purely farcical nature. "Oh, Boy.' is entirely devoid of incidents bearing even a remote resemblance to 1nelo- drama, because Mir. Capollani has cm- ployed d wholly farcical treatment, and by cleverly planning incidents of q romantic nature through a series of highly interesting farcical situations, has succeeded without the aid of any sinister or dramatic element in regis tering a swiftly y-moVing and highly diverting light comedy that embodies all the qualities of public appeal.
 ''Oh, Boy.' will have it's premiere in this city at the Palace theater on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday;

The success of such virile melo- dramas us "The Thirteenth Chair" "For the Man She LoVed' and "Tho Natural Law" at the Lyceum theater has convinced the management of the Lyceum Players that good rcd blooded melodrama is what the pa irons of the popular playhouse want and for that reason Manager Mason has selected for next weeks produc- ton the greatest melodrama. dealing with an American subject ever writ ten-"The NigT CT" The play was written by Edward Sheldon, a student in the famo1:s 1T course in playwrig ght- ing. conducted at Harvard by Profess sor Baker.

EOX,S THEATL.R.

When Bearcat Went Dry" the special World production playing "t Fox's theater for the last three days of this week is in all truth a picture of deep interest and appeal. From the very beginning there is not one dull moment but constant intense action that will grip you and hold you spell bound with it's vital drama tic | punch of live red-blooded situations. If your liking runs to the highly dra- matic with all the colorln2 that a bat tie royal, feuds, duels and illicit gin stills can give, then here is the desire of your heart fulfilled because hero you will see such action in it's primi- tive state. Many in this section of tho country have never seen, much less heard of a battle royal. We all are familiar with tho prize ring but here you have the grip of battle mag nifled ninefold because in a battle royal at. least nine mon are placed in il ring or inclosu"e, the man standing the longest is proclaim victor. In
 "Whcn Bearcat Went Dry" we have just such a thrilling spectacle among the mountaineers of Kentucky, where the agents of the government search sometimes fatally for the stills of !hc moonshincrs. Yet with all the thrills of colored and dramatic action we find as sweet q love story as was ever told bv the silent drama. A hero whose sense of chivalry, though blunt ed by the environment or primitive surroundings, is equal to that of the knight of old. who went forth to bat tie with his sweetheart token dar
 SIing from his shield or lance. You will like this picture as Eour neigh bor liked it yesterday. Ask him. He knows Pearl White is also on the bill in the second chapter of he "Black Secret" Four fine acts of vaudeville complete the program.

HOW AL JOLSON GOT THERE.

In spite of what he sings, life hasn't always been a bee-yu-ti-ful mel-o dee for Al Jolson, who will be seen in the successful Winter Garden show, Sin bad" at the Parsons theater three days beginning December list, matinee on Wednesday. You know him blackface while he's earning his salary and whitefaee at the end of the per formance, just to show he has not been trying to deceive you.
 sitting on a trunk in his dressing room the other night, Jolson said Honestly. I don't know how l ever got there. It's all a dream.' With one hand he caught his head; with the other he grasped a bottle of cough medicine. In due time he coughed for sympathy. Then he went on with the hard-luck story of his earlier life.
 Believe me-" he prayed Tt was not a picnic. I was born in Russia, and the family was so poor that I wore a pair of black stockings on my hands instead of gloves when my mother was buried. My sister gave ene the stockings
 He reached for the cough medi- cine and took a cigar.
 "Now.' he said. "listen to the tale of the road. The first disease I caught was wanderlust. When my father brought me to Washington my one desire was to run away from home, and I kept 1t up until l seem ed to be doomed to jail for my more or less natural life. Well. one day 1 was fascinated by q candy puller-thc hard working performer that gives the hook to taffy at a country fair you know? That was the beginning of my artistic career
 He smiled and gulped down an- other dose of cough medicine.

But after breakfast sergeant placed me in charge of a colonefs horse. He was very nice about it--oh, very nice! In case the horse should stop, he said, all I had to do was to dig him in the ribs, or something like that. Anyway the horse stopped ana I followed instructions. Instantly I went over the top of that horse, and so far as l know the horse is still there"
 MT Jolson rubbed his head rcflec- lively, and then went on:
