I 8 GOODWIN'S WEEKLY
DRAMA
ORPHEUM.
H, At the Orpheum this week, the bill consists
H in the main of singing and dancing, but this is
H f of such variety and so well done that there is no
m cause for alarm among those who haven't yet wit-
H nessed the bill, for it is well worth the time it
Hi takes to see it. Laddie Cliff, the English comed-
H Ian, danced himself right into the spotlight of ap-
Hj, proval and stayed there a long time at each per-
H fomiance, though not long enough for the people
Hi down in front. Laddie is somewhat of an actor
H" as well as a dancer, and captured every audience
H he had during the week.
H , Albert Press made a lot of new friends with
It his 'cello solos, and was followed by Miss Grace
H Armond, who was not following Albert, but came
Hj In that order on the bill. Miss Armond is desig-
Hf nated as "The Foolish Liz of Vaudeville," what-
H over that may be, and while making good, would
H t do better if she were to eliminate about a peck
H , of chestnuts. George "W. Cooper and William
H , Robinson, light and dark smokes got a good
H deal out of their skit, and so did the audience,
H . something unusual in tinted acts.
H The return of Frank Mostyn Kelly in "Tom
H ' and Jerry," assisted by Albert Green, was not the
H occasion of any wild tumult of applause. The
H sketch needs a good deal of trimming; in fact, it
m would not do much harm to take it all off, and
H Frankf Mostyn along with it.
H Max Witt's "Singing Colleens," who are heard
H in some Irish melodies and a few other things,
M opened the second and best part of the bill, and
H "The Eight Original Madcaps" closed it. Their
M act is a real hummer, and one mad whirl from
M start to finish. It is splendid, and one in a nun-
M dred ensemble acts.
For tomorrow night, George HUlman and his
"Redpath Napanees" are the headliners. They
are followed by the Athleta Sisters, gymnasts;
Lew Bloom, in a tramp stunt; Armstoong and
Clark, in "Finding a Partner;" Londe and Tilly,
European gymnasts; Lancton and Lucier, sketch
artists, and Moffett and Clare, singers and
dancers.

"GIRLS" AT THE GRAND.
"Girls," the Shubert offering that held the
attention of theatregoers In New York for nearly
an entire season, while at Daly's theatre, will be
the attraction at the Grand next Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday night and Wednesday mati
nee. Clyde Fitch, the author of many successes,
is responsible for "Girls." The plot concerns three
young girls, sworn enemies to all men, who have
taken an oath never to associate with the stronger
sex. With this purpose in view they rent a single
room and set about to find work. The first act
discloses the girls about to retire for the night,
at this stage a man hurriedly enters the sacrea
precincts of their studio and horrors refuses to
go until he gets ready. The intruder endeavors
to explain that while dining with a married woman
in the building her husband unexpectedly returned.
To save the woman's honor he takes refuge in the
girls' studio. After a time he makes himself agree
able. Then the defection spreads with terrible
rapidity and within three weeks covered by the
last two acts, each of the three man-haters has
become an affianced bride.

"CAMEO KIRBY."
After seeing Dustin Farnum in "Cameo Kirby,"
it is easy to realize why Nat Goodwin was a fail

be seen why the play itself can never be classed
as a bip, success.
The part of Kirby is entirely unsuited to an
actor like Goodwin but even if Dustin Farnum
does make everything possible out of the part, he 1
has not found in it anything that will add to his '
laurels already won.
The play by Mr. Tarkington and Mr. Wilson
is a very shaky vehicle, unworthy of the best ef
forts of any actor, and is long drawn out and
borosome. it is safe to say that after one trial on
the road, it will go the same way that it did in
the eastern cities.
Salt Lckers like Dustin Fanium, and that is
really what accounted for the crowded houses and
the enthusiasm. Certainly the play itself could ,
not draw heavily again. McKee Rankin, a3 Lar- I
kin Bunce, was a great hit, and his return here ji
after an absence of many years was the signal
for a splendid welcome. May Buckley, who is
as sweet and charming as ever, and whose acting
has developed wonderfully since she was here be
fore, also received a deserving reception. In fact,
the entire company is very good, and the pity is
that they are not here in a stronger play.

SOMETHING NEW IN SHYLOCKS. ,
From a Carson, Nevada, paper we take tilt
following:
"Mr. De Grasse and his excellent company in
Shakespeare's great comedy, "The Merchant of
Venice," will be greeted with a large audience at
the Carson Opera House this evening.
"In essaying the role of "Shylock," Mr. De
Grasse is adhering to a line? of historic effort in
which he has been taught by experience that the
playgoing public appreciates him most and as
legitimate actors of his ability are becoming
less and less numerous, the growing scarcity of
