Realization Of the exigencies of

Arman Kaliz' Temptation" which
heads the current Keith bill. When
you behold the gorgeous danes and
damosels Mr.. Kaliz has chosen to
typify Luck, Extravaganza. Passion
and the like, you understand per-
fectly why so many good men have
gone wrong. In fact, you fnd II
hard to understand the individual
whose foot has not slipped.
On a somewhat rickety and we'll
worn moral peg, Kaliz has hung
a fantasy p-ettily decked with gems.
more or less genuine, of melody.
girlish good looks and scenic eff
fects. Occasional bits of t. b. m.
comedy relieve the somewhat cloy-
ing brilliance of morality and cos
tunes. We are not sure whether
the best hits of comedy in Temp
tation" are subtle or just uncon-
scious BY this we refer to the
obese serpent that coils all over
the prologue drop and opens its
yard-wide mouth menacingly to
shoot forth q tongue reminiscent of
well-done lobster claw. Also to
the odd pap!er-mache bowie knife
welded by the angel OF Eden. Con-
sidering the prevalence of bootleg
whisky, we feel justified in prophe-
sying that a certain portion of the
audience is certain to become hys-
terical and try to hide under the
seats If Mr.. KaliZ persists in using
the weird snake drop.
The relative merits of red roses
and rcd noses are sung by Basil
Lynn. with the cooperation of Will
lam Howland. The mere posies get
much the worst of it. The act con-
cludes with "Rainbows." which in
considerable ballad seems to grow
finer and mellower like old sherry
every time the suave Lynn sings it.

little Laurel Lee is pretty and does

CHESAPEAKE BEACH.

Refreshing breezes offered respite
from the intense heat yesterday to
hundreds of pleasure-seekers at
Chesapeake Beach, the nearby bay
resort. The cool groves overlooking
tie bay, studded with beautiful shade
trees. were the scene of many outing
parties. Lunches were spread on
grassy slopes and lovers lolled in the
sylvan dells. The boardwalk was
crowded with pretty girls. Perhaps
the most popular spot, however, was
the over r-the-water free dance pavil-
ion, where jungle jazz was served
by Prof. Ralph Garren's clown or
chestra. The fairyland of amuse-
ments, all over the bay, became q
magic city when twilight fell and
the myriad electric bulbs began to
glow. Hundreds enjoyed dips in the
salty surf. while others tried their
luck at fishing.

STEAMER ST. JOHNS.

AS the st. Johns. washington's

away from her wharf at the foot

and dances of today were held on
the dance deck, which has been put
into excellent condition. Sokolove's
Jazz Orchestra furnished the music.
At about IL o'clock, the St. Johns

A bill of real gems of vaudeville
is regaling the patrons of the Cosmos
Theater this week, headliners being
difficult to guess.

musicians and two dancers, Illus
trate how much beauty can be at
tainel in music with a violin. a piano
and A banjo. and how much brain
storming jazz with four players and
collection OF instruments of all
kinds. The dancers are of the
genuinely artistic type and their
numbers such as are seldom seen in
polite vaudeville.
Then there is Milo" to all ap-
pearances an ordinary tramp. but
with a voice like an angel and
limitations that run the gamut, while
Matylee Lippard's song cycle. in
which she is assisted at the piano
and with the voice by Dave Dillon Is
like a breath of high-class musical
comedy. Miss Lippard's costumes
are of the notable kind ranging from
the glory of baby blue, lace and
spangles to her Chinese dream in
"Heigh Ho," a song one will re-
member.

genuine dog comedian and acrobat

Jones and Cavanaugh offer songs
and an amusing lingo with comedy.
while Juggling Willisch. replacing
Sinclair and Grey. entertains with
some rare bits of jugglery.

Bristler in the past, he impressed
his listeners and watchers with an
easily cognizable fact, that he him
self must be from Hoosierland.
Playing opposite, welding touch
that perforce made her hkeable
character, was Florence Evelyn
Martin. Not a true role to her, she
did not in any way become dis
tinguished. One could not be made
to think of her as a susceptible
child. She could well have been
the home girl of the Hoosiers
dreams.
AS the play wended its way on
toward the comedic. Hardie Meak-
lin upheld the role of the silly
Englishman, so often typified in less
worthy performances. J. Arthur
Young, as Ivanhoff. Russian fugi-

dramatic heights through melo-
drama. He travelled far and was
altogether in sympathy with the
strain of the work.

the chief factor. Talk was current

NEW YORK.
STOCKS.


!. New York, Feb. 1O.-Trading was
perfunctory today. the only note
worthy feature being the advance of
coppers. Minor oils, including Cali
fornia Petroleum. and Texas & Pacific
Coal and Oil improved but the usual
leaders in the steel and general indus
trial divisions were neglected. Ship
pinRs showed little support. Atlantic
Gulf. common and preferred, los 2
points each. Royal Dutch, Sears
Roebuck. United States Realty and
New Orleans, Texa & Mexican regis
tered declines Of l to almost 2 points.
On the exchange oil money held at
Z per cent. but private offerings We're
made as low as six per cent.
An uncertain n attended the dull
opening of today's stool market, al
though gains exceeded losses. Cop
pers were firm on the completion of
the banking syndicate for financing
large exports Of the metal. Domestic
and Mexican oils strengthened, but
European issues of that class sagged.
Pressure against shippings was re-
sumed, Atlantic Gulf falling ia
points at the outset. Very light deal
ings in rails were mostly at fractional
recessions. Changes among special
ties were confusing, American Wooden
showing marked strength. while
Strombers Carburetor, Continental
Candy and other obscure issues were
weak.
Rails eased from fractions to a point
during the noon hour, presumably on
announcement that tho railroad board
