THE IhleSf6l@G:

the Garrick Theatre for the present
week.
The Selador act presents some
clever dancing and foolery, some
pleasing songs in a novel and pic
turesque arrangement.
Delano Bell. entertainer par-ex-
cellent. kept the house in an uproar
by his nimble and original dancing,
and his snappy collection of jokes
Ted and frankie Jones in a scene
called "Astrology," were very enter
tanning, as Mr. Burglar and Mrs.
Crook. who sought the advice Of the
stars before deciding upon the scene
Of their evening operations. Ted
Burns has a good voice and is a first
rate comedian, and Miss Burns sup
piled very gracefully her fifty per
cent toward the acts success.
Irvine Ordway and Dorf offer a
lively singing and dancing act, and
some very droll impersonations at
the piano. The dancing Is pretty
much in imitation of the famous
Frisco" and while not equally the
dash and individual of that Jazz
King" is a snappy one and scored a
decided hit.
Dance steps of the moment, as
presented by Jane and Miller were
very smart and graceful. Raymond

their brisk dialogue breaking Into
