the local playhouse during the present season.
 Tommy Hayden and Carmen Excelle, English character comedian and prima donna violinist respectively, present an act of exceeding merit. Hayden, late of "The Royal Flying Corps" is said to be unexcel1ed in his character presentation of an English Johnny on this side of the water and audiences are convulsed at his interpretation of the silly asss Englishman at his first ball game
 Presenting vocal and instrumental novelty surprise, the Florida Four is a quartet said to be as inviting and pleasant as the winter climate of the state from which they take their name Two men and two women render mu- sical numbers with the warmth of the Sunny South.
 Will H. Armstrong and company, as- sisted by Miss Maud Smith present an exceedingly funny comedy skit entitled. 'The s10,000 Ankle" How an ankle came to be worth this sum is dis closed in an amusing and enterprising manner.

will assure the patrons of many hearty laughs. The scenic equipment will be well worthy of a two-dollar production, for Sam intends to make each bill stand out from now until the close of the season, and not lag in one in stance, because there are only four more weeks.
 Each member of the cast will be seen to advantage and this play promises to be one of the most pleasing of all the melodramas offered to date.
 The four bills to complete the stock season according to programmes are, The Hand of Fate;' Somewhere in France" Indiana Folks" and the farewell bill, My Dixie Girl"
 The house will still be held by Messrs. Maddocks and Park for the coming two years and while the stock will take a vacation Manager Mad docks will continue with the Majestic with Dan Fitch and his stock minstrel company of twenty-five people, chang ing the entire show each week, and one of the best novelties ever offered in the south. Some of the highest salaried minstrel men in the country will be seen in this organization and with three shows daily at popular prices, this novelty should prove to be equally as successful in Birming- ham as it has been in Atlantic City, Philadelphia and other cities of the east

women of distinctly different types, me. a rustic maid. Tn all simplicity and sweetness; the other, a Baby lonian siren, in all duplicity and worldliness.
 But standing in the most striking opposition are the two elderly women in the play, Hulda, the mother of Jether. the Prodigal and Medina. the nother of Tisha, the vampire Hulda loves her son Jether with love that will go to many lengths. It reaches to the gates of heaven and will go down to the gates of hell. Nadina may love her daughter, but she cer- tainly has strange way of showing it, for she is willing to sell the girl to the highest bidder.
 When Jether, arrives in Jerusalem and visits the home of pleasure which is conducted by Nadina, he is intro duced as a rich Judean prince, and Nadina immediately advises her daughter to favor him-in fact, to be his handmaiden.
 Weaving in and out of "The Wan derer," there are many other clever characterizations iI direct antithesis, but no doubt the two Nlothers will be longest remembered because one rep resents all that is good in mother- hood and the other all that is bad.

VARIETY GALORE
 ON WEEKS BILL
 AT LOEW'S BDOU
Trovato, Eccentric VioIinist, Headline Attraction, With Other Big Loew Acts.
 Mrs. Primrose on Bill

Variety? Music? Novelties? Comedy Thrills?
 Take your pick--then visit Loews Bijou for the two splendid bills offered during the coming week. You'll find them all right there From headliners down to the final acts, you'll find variety galore.
 The talent of an artist is best distin- guished by the amount of imitation he draws. If his act is attractive, if his ability is of the first water, scores of lesser lights of the stage will strive to copy him. No plagerist will strive to im- itate something that is not worth wh1e.
 And so the ability of Trovato, the ec- centric violinist, is best explained in the fact that he has been copied by more peo- pie than any artist in the world. Tro- vato is the headline attraction for the opening bill of the week, and his excep- tional musical ability undoubtedly will prove a musical treat for music-loving Birmingham.
 The quaint, haunting melodies, the graceful dancing of yesterday, are min- gled with the snappy. poppy songs of today, and the latest jazz dances of to- morrow in Past and Present." a danc- ing and song revue by Margaret Doherty and company.
 Douglas Flint and company are seen
 
 let that has charm all it's own.
 "Copped'' is the title Al Johnson and Dixie Crane have attached to their com edy skit which is made up of songs, dances and a pleasing line of rapid-fire comedy.
 Arco brothers perform wonderful feats of equilibrium, in hand and head balanc- ing, and particularly thrilling stunts" Who but warns to the music, the non sense, the harmony the all 'roIna at- tractiveness of minstrelsy?
 Mrs. George Primrose and vaudeville's cleverest collection of burnt cork enter tainers, present ''Minstrelsy A LaCarte' with all the care-free abandon that has made minstrel shows the publics fav- orite entertainment for years. There are new jokes. new songs, new dances. Mrs. Primrose is the lady interlocutor," and puts her assistants through their paces in true old-time minstrel style. This is the headline act for the weekend.
 Harry Tsuda, vaudevilles most ver- satile Japanese entertainer, opens the bill with a series of novelty balancing feats that place him in class by him. self.
 The Happy Couple" Cotton Allen and Mae Moore. are exactly that, and their offerings of comedy, dancing and popu- lar song numbers invariably leave "every- body smiling when they say good-by." "The Jail Bird" gripping comedy drama, provides ample opportunity for genuine acting for Thomas P. Jackson

The Hand Of Fate, Pleasing
 Comedy Drama, Is Offering This Week Al the Majestic

| According to Manager Maddocks of the Majestic theatre. for the coming week the best of all the sensational melodramas to date will hold forth with tears, love, sensation, laughter and nonsense all combined to make it one of the most pleasing comedy dramas ever offered.
 This is another of those bills which has no Broadway success behind it but has been used by almost every stock ada when all other plays failed to please,
 It has human heart story and a good plot, plenty of sensation and just filled with comedy which the patrons Of this house seem to enjoy when Sam Park is in charge of the part.
 Little Miss Park will step, so to speak, from the sublime to the ridicu- lous, as Isabell in East Lynne" is a very difficult emotional part, while the part of the little newsgirl in "The Hand of Fate" is as different as day from night and will show the versatility of this favorite little star and how she adapts herself from one to the other.
 sam Park will be seen in the comedy role of the newsboy detective, part he has played many times and one that these opportunities.
 Frank Farron is billed as "a likable lad, loaded with lyrics and laughs
 The two bills are exceptionally well balanced and provide hours of clean, wholesome entertainment.

Crusaders Plan Deathlike Stiffness in
u. S. on Sabbath.

New York, Nov. 24.-Having made
the United States bone dfy-theoret.
ically at least-reformers are now
busy planning to make the country
dead still on Sundays, according to
an article in the New York Sun, con-
spicuously displayed on its first page
Wednesday afternoon.
The paper claims to have Informal
ton that organizations similar TO the
Anti-Saloon league have set afost n
nationwide campaign to put over an
other constitutional amendment that
would make Sunday day exclusively
devoted to rest, thought, worship and
prayer. Strict laws sought by these
reformers would rob the Sabbath,
among other things, of outdoor
sports, moving pictures, business of
any description, newspapers, train
service, sale of gasoline.
The movers of this plan, according
to the Sun, already have organized the
country into districts and are cner-
getically pushing legislation, starting
with the ban on movies and sports on
Sundays.
The South is said to have been al
ready organized under the direction
of L. Cochrane Hunt, leader of the
Lords Day alliance, whose headquar-
tcrs are in New York. In South Car
DINA the alliance is working in close
with the Anti-Saloon
league, headed by Supt R. L. Davis,
DR.. Harry L. Bowlby, national sec
-etary of the alliance, is quoted by
he Sun as confirming the organiza-
ions reported plans.
