FOUR SPLENDID ACTS ARE
FEATURED IN VAUDEVILLE

-Four splendid acts were lined up
for the Iris vaudeville which was pre-.
scented last night at that theatre and
which is being presented again to-
night.
Musical limitations. eccentric dancing
character representations. and aero
battle feats of amazing daring make
up the bill.
Julius Fisher comes out with n
cigar box and one string.
Using this as a violin he gets some
very good one from It, being &C,
companied by the orchestra. This feat
is nothing however to be compared
with that which follows, the execu.
ton of various limitations on a speci.
ally constructed instrument. With
the aid OF his bow and novel instru.
ment Fisher is able to initiate such
sounds as a dog and cat Quarreling.
a chicken cackling. and even the var.
ious pieces in an orchestra.
The stunts done by McIlyar and
Hamilton are all very good. The best
one is the barrel.Jumping where the
male member of this duo jumps from
h lower barrel to the next higher
until he has assembled four of them
and then turns as he springs 20 feet
