MIR. PM PASSES TO TUNE OF HILARTTY
Keith's Program
Is Good One From
Start to Finish

WY HEN the opening act Of
" vaudeville bill at a
Washington theater Is
forced to respond to half a dozen
curtain calls the bill is pretty
sure to be a good one. The open
ing act at Keith's was forced to
take several curtain calls at both
performances yesterday.
The star of the program is
Marion Harris, whose syncopated
songs have been heard by nearly
everyone who owns a monograph.
She offered several new songs and
was forced to sing some of her old
ones
Herbert Williams and Hilda
Wolfus presented "a ruffined
comedy in four courses" differing
from their former efforts-and
much better. Williams burlesque
OF a Bulgarian pianist was a
scream. Florence Tempest and
Bobby Watson offered good
song and dance act, and though
Miss Tempest In her opening num-
Der said she was tired of wearing
1.-The pants" she did appear in
male costume and sang one Of
the old favorites.
I'D. ID. H.Y' is the way one of
the feature acts on the bill is
announced. The audience thought
it was in for a female impersona-
ton. Instead ID. ID. H., clad in
afternoon dress and wearing the
square cap of a collegian. talked
of his new encyclopedia. His
monologue gave him an oppor-
tunity to make puns on local
and national events as well as to
burlesque the usual book agents
talk.
Grant Mitchell & Co. presented
delightful one-act skit, The
Future" admirably acted, the
supporting company including
Eleanor Martin and Edwin Barry.

Burlesque This
Week at Gayety
Unusually Good

n ARNEY GERARD'S color
full burlesque show, fea-
turing John Hawley and
William Saxton, is the current at
traction at the Gayety. These
comedians have replaced Watson
and Cohen in the characters OF
Slitkin and Slotkin, and proved
to be capable substitutes. The
show, which Is entitled Bankers
and Brokers'" is in two acts and
nine scenes and abounds in tune
full music and brisk comedy &C
ton. The supporting company is
good and the piece moves rap
idly when the two comedians get
into action.
Gussie White is a personable
young woman. and her dancing
numbers were an outstanding fea-
ture. Gussie revived "Darden-
ella" last night and was reward
ed with three recalls. Monica
Redmond has good voice and
appeared to advantage in several
song numbers, april Showers"
receiving the most attention. Ed
die Green, in black face, proved
to be a nimble dancer, while Rag
Lynch in the straight role was
good.
Bobbie Irwin and Jack Murray
have a whistling and dancing act
that went over big. Water Gill
bert, a double jointed person, tied
his figure into all sorts OF knots,
while Helen Miller played the xvi
ophone so capably that she was
recalled several times. The Choir
us is one - the liveliest aggrega-
tons of girls that has been seen
at the Ninth street playhouse in
many weeks. They would be
credit to a more pretentious pro-
duction.
The feature picture is idle

raid on the Chinese hop" joint
is a thrilling episode. The COM
bination of pictures, vaudeville
and burlesque running contin-
uously from 1 until II o'clock,
which the Gayety is now produc-
ing, is attracting much attention,
and Manager Harry Jarboe is re-
ceiving many congratulations on
the success of the new Gayety
policy.

VIE CAST.
BY HAROLD PHILLIPS.

A DEAR delightful comedy,
~ superbly acted, is this dra-
matte journal of Mr.. PINS
visitation upon an orderly house
hold and the laughable turmoil
which ensues.
Mr.. PIN comes to Buckingham
shire on an errand of trivial inn
port. He departs, a thieving
Atlas in an alpaca coat, carrying
on his shoulders not only the key
stone, but the whole arch upon
which has been reared and nurtur-
ed the unruffled felicity of a tran
quill home. Down the hill to the
left" goes Mr.. PIN. blessing his
soul, and wholly unmindful of the
wreckage he has wrought.
And it all comes about so inno-
Gently. PIN comes to the home
Of George Marden, seeking creden-
tials. He is waylaid by the gar
rulous niece of his benefactor-to-
be and by virtue of asserting here
and there and interfering few
words of his own there is evolved
finally tale which has to do with
the first husband, thought dead, of
Olivia Mardcn. Mr.. Pin journey
ed from Australia with this gentle
man.
The situation develops on this
resurrection of the dead which
credits Olivia and the PiOus George
with a bigamous marriage.
Broad farce, sometimes strained,
Is the product of this turn in the
tale. Genteel comedy is retrieved
when the doddering PIN comes
back later to finish his tale
which has to do with the death
of the Phantom Enoch Arden
from the effects of reCalcitrant
herring bone.
Compromising the humor of the
theme, Mr.. PIN again returns to
advise he had the wrong name
and the unfortunate vanquished
by the deceased bloater was, after
all, not Olivia's husband.
The play, MIR. PIN Is light,
talkative comedy, transported to
the shrine of measurable success,
mayhap, by virtue Of its bring
ing up at the hands of the
theater guild, rather than by
merit of it's lines or those who
speak them. Yet the cast is fine
with no exception. Erskine San
ford's Mr.. PIN is such that you're
glad every time he appears.
Laura Hope Crews as Olivia, and
Dudley Digges as John, carry the
leads effectively. Also word for
Augusta Haviland as Lady Mar
den, who made us fear for Pins
senile frame in the few glances
she deigned him.
Altogether a play you'll enjoy.

Lightning Bolt

twenty-reel European spec
tacle, which is now being released
in the United States as a series
of four Paramount pictures, have
gone DIR. Charles L. Steinmetz, the
electrical wizard, one better. In
stead of inventing a lightning bolt
of one million horsepower that
can be let loose in a modern cleo
trical laboratory as DIR. Steinmetl
did recently at Schenectady, n. Y,
they conceived a modern electrical
machine to do away with war.
In the film a huge electrical APP
paratus with the power to give
off electrical shocks that would
wipe out whole armies Is shown.
Where DR.. SteinmetZ's experiment
produced a lightning bolt carry
ing the energy of 100000 horse
power, or one five hundredth the
strength of a natural lightning
bolt. the machine in THE Mis-.
tress of the World" Is supposed
to carry the power Of 100 900 am
peres, ten times the strength of
the artificial lightning generated
in the General Electrical Com
pany's laboratories in Schenectady.
The machine shown in the pic
ture, which is the invention OF a
European scientist who is seek
ing a way to prevent wars, has
two large antennae which tower
to the sky and through which the
electric current, generated by huge
motors, is liberated. 1t Is the

first time in eight years. Commerve

victory over the Red and Black war

made its greatest gains by the aerial
route. And just as Clinton made it's

across yesterday after half dozen
plays Immediately after receiving the
kickoff, poor boot against the wind by
Ted Bolden. the negro halfback, whose
performances in the second half stood
out so brilliantly in Commences triumph.
On the first play Paxson threw a long
forward pass to Ferrari who. unnoticed.
had been waiting close to the sdelines.
The forward gained twenty-four yards.
A penalty of five yards for Com
merce was followed by two unsuccessful
