Miss Kinder, al- though only seventeen years of age, ranks with the best shooters in Amer at Polls is a huge success at every show she is showered with spontan- eous applause justly earned Six other high class acts are on the b1ll today, including Will J. Ward, the piano n1onologist. kitty Francis and her million dollar dolls, Fields and Fink, Patrice and Sullivan, The Three Kitaros, and One On The Isle, theater audiences.
 The Feature picture, Experience" Paramount production with Richard Barthelemess, who will be remem bered from his recent showing in .sWay Down East,' in one of the principal parts has created consid- erable favorable discussion in Bridge port. It is far better than the stage play as it has a wider scope to DOT tray life as it is.
 Another seven act bill is announc- ed for Thursday. Friday and Saturday. with an entire change of bill headed by Goulett. the recent winner Of the six day bicycle race at Madison Square Garden. His act consists of a real formance, made possible with an ap- raratus specially adapted for their use, it shows a real race as if in a veledrome.

 LYRIC.
 Plays may come and plays may go but the memory of '.Tiger Rose" the dTa at the Lyric will remain with Bridgeport pIaygOers for a long, long time to come. Even the most eXacting critics in the crowded houses which have cheered this play are agreed that Tiger Rose' equals any Broadway or road show in every detail, and that nothing has been le undone by the Lyric management to put it over on the lavish scale which a great play such as this de mands.
 There is nothing hackneyed ,or or dinary about Tiger Rose" In the first place. it was written by that master of melodranla, Willard Mack, probably the most popular and sue cessful of all our playwrights.
 And in the second place, the swiftly moving and absorbing story of the play. was enhanced by the marvellous scenic and lighting effects designed by the genius of David Belasco.
 Now, Director Bernard Steele of the Lyric is known to folks in the profes- sion as the Belasco of stock" and the stock Belasco has proven his right to that title by the masterly way in which he has presented this greatest success of Belasco himself.
 The acting of the company leaves nothing to be desired. It is as near perfection as anything possibly could Eveta Nudsen, the leading woman, whose interpretation of the role of the impulsive and primitive heroine will stand out as one of the most re1nark- history.
 Tiger Rose" has received the high est praise from the many hundreds who have damned the Lyric thus early III the week. and deservedly so Tor 1t represents the very pinnacle of achievement. The PoI Players have chaBked up many successes this sea- son, but it doubtful if even their best nave come anywheka near the pro duction of the Belasco sensation.
