Active buying in the first hour

Curb stocks higher failed to continue
for any extended period and when Of
ferings increased around noon reac-
tion set in which virtually wiped out
all gains. Lack of outside support,
which had tended to restrict trading
last week, was again in evidence as
soon as the early orders had been taken
care Of, and the professional element
took advantage of the situation to con-
duct further campaigns to bring prices
down.
None of the stocks showed especial
weakness, except Texas Pacific Coal
and Oil, which sold off sharply after
the announcement that 200,O 900 shares
of $40 par value would be offered at
that price. The rights to subscribe to
this new offering started at 16, but
broke soon to II, when the old stock
declined on the first few sales from 72
to 60. 1t sold as low as 56 before
rallying to 60 on the last sale. An in
crease in capital stock from $G,000,O00

declined to discuss The proposed NOR

would not be surprising, it is be-
lieved The British American stocks
were weaker.
Movements in the industrals were
generally narrow and without special

THE KISS BURGLAR"
A DAINTY CONCEPTION


In these bone-dry times 1.-THE Kiss Bur
glar. at the jefferson yesterday after
noon and last night. may be described
as a musical comedy cocktail A young
American playing cards with certain high
personages at Trieste, suspects that lie
is being cheated Convinced of the fact
he uses his fists in Americn fashion, but
is forced to flee because of superior NUM-
bers. Taking refuge in the boudoir Of
a duchess, the young American is mis-
taken for a burglar and is offered pre-
cious Jewels by the duchess. He takes a
kiss instead and neither he nor the duch-
ess can forget that kiss
This is the beginning and end Of the
plot, che might say for the duchess, while
entertained by some American friends in
New York, meets her hero again and al
ter some prelninaries, during which she
asserts her belief that he is a 100 per
cent burglar, matters are explained and
the lovers are reunited
! The Kiss Burglar is dainty concep-
ton and actually has some flashes of
original comedy 1t is prettily staged. is
eniiVened by some tuneful music and is
done by a competent company. which
quite fills the bill for an entertaining
musical snow.
Patricia O'Hearn is a most fetching
auchess, who sings and dances in a
charming manner, combining grace and
beauty In a role for which she is well
suited. Most of the comedy falls on the
shoulders OF Willie Dunlay, rotund per-
son, VINO makes Oswald Gayly an anus
ing character
others conspicuous ia the cast were
Donald Archer, veteran Of musical com
edy and light opera, who was r chat
terton-Pym; Bessie Merrill, who played
Mrs Chatterton-Pym; Lee Abbott. an
agreeable stage lover. who has a good
voice, and played the part of Bert Du-
Vivie-, and Mudd Murray, a society press
agent.
The kiss Burglar appealed to the eye
by it's attractive stage settings. to the
ear through its pretty music and created
more than one laugh by the nonsensical
episode of a stolen kiss.

HOLIDAY BILL AT LOEW'S
BIJOU is DELIGHTFUL

Loew's Bitou yesterday with a pro-
gramme of entertainment that was
thoroughly enjoyable from start to
finish and again the big holiday crowd
that packed the popular theatre to it's
capacity gave unstinted approval to the
splendid offering
Blackface comedians come and go
but few have the ability to entertain
or are as versatile as Arthur Finn,
who with a capable company presents
a military travesty, "Bagpipes in the
Trenches" The act takes headline
honors. Finn is a blackface comedian
of the AL Joslin type, who just bounces
on, and puts over some sparkling talk,
all about life in the trenches in the
front line, with the niger as the goat
all the time. and who for a finish does
bit of Scotch with the bagpipes and
all that will make them all sit UP and
keep bowling for more. Finn wrote it
himself and injects some new bits at
every performance, keeping 1t right VI
to the minute
There is class all the way through
to the offering of Edah Delbridge and
Tobe Gremmer, for in addition to writ
ing their own songs they have the
voices to sing them and are good to

Heart" and others; will offer from
grand opera to ragtime, and some of
their latest hits, and with it all Grem-
mer has a knack of slipping over a

A musical specially presented by
Hart and Helene, a talented couple, is

and vocal and instrumental selections
are introduced. They were well re-
ceived.

Colleen Moore.
