MERRIMENT
IS KEYNOTE
AT KEITH’S
George MacFarlane, Baritone,
Tops BilJ Strengthened
By Variety.
There's plenty of merriment on
this week’s bill at Keith’s. The
show starts off With a bang In
the shape of a corking Aesop
Fable cartoon —A burlesque on
"The Covered .Wagon,”, entitled
"The Covered Felix
the cat, does his stuff with his
usual eclat; Fred Clark’s merry
men contribute the musical em*
bellishment.
Then come Ford and Prlc<H-a
team of -elack-wlre
who drew down the house last
night w|th their clever dancing
in midair. This act is a novelty
in slack-wire offerings and save
for the age-old custom which
places such acts in oiife
position it would, through sheer
merit, have a later place on the
bill. Ford himself is particularly
good. ' •* v
Next came Fifences Arms, a
blues chanter who had the entire
house accompanying her yester
eve. Among other things, she
had no bananas—but one is bound
to affirm that she possesses prac
tically everything else that goes
toward making good vaudeville
entertainment. To b«*r her sing
Come geYen! ’ makes the palm
itch for a pair pf bones and a
two-bit piece to "fade.”
"A Ding Tangle” followed. Jack
Henry and EJdith Maye are the
stars of this clever skit, assisted
quite capably by Estelle MONeal
and Harry Meyers. Quite a clever
little piece of stage business as
speh- things go; the two offer
one specialty that in itself makes
the act worth- while.
The big .laugh of the bill is
sprung by Crafts' and Haley.
These boys got “ mbrS curtain
calls last night than any two
other acts put together. Sub
mitted as the prige nut Joke la
Jack’s "My girl is crazy on * the
subject of hosiery—whenever I
go to hug her fthe says Aw. nix.”
George MacFarlane and com
pany present a mighty tuneful
cycle of songs. MacFarlane was
In particularly fjrie voice Igst
eight and his resonant baritone
was heard to advantage in more
than a few popular selections.
His "Make the Punishment gult
the Crime” song Was particularly
well done. Margaret Walker, who
wears costumes and dances
through this act, Is herewith
nominated for the honbrs" of
premiere blonde beauty in Wash
ington tbis week.
Gertrude Barnes was well re
ceived in several song specialties.
Harry Fox, the musical comedy ’
star, did mighty W f ell the few
things that he considered it neces
sary to do; bpt one wonders why
he curtails his act to such an
extent just because it happens ta
be a part of a vaudveille pro
gram. More of him would be
appreciated.
The bill closes with a two-a-day
version of the Broadway farce
success, “Parlpr, Bedroom and
Bath.” Helen Qoodhue and a
company of seven romp through
this to the accompaniment nf
gales of laughter that’s mostly
due to the clever work of Miss
Gopdhue herself. R. L. B. ‘
Shuberts Renew
Lease on Garrick
It is understood the Shuberts
have renewed their contract on
the Garrick Theater, effective
September 1, for another season
of road shows. This dispenses,
for the present, with rumors that
the theater is to be razed to make
way for a mercantile establish
ment.
Girls! Here's the
Latest! It's the
'Confederate Bob'
The “Confederate bob,"
which ia really not a bob at
all, but look* like one, has
suddenly become popular in
Hollywood and vicinity.
Beatrice Joy began it.
While the new hair ar
rangement seems new to the
younger people, it really
' dates back to civil war days.
It Is produced by drawing ,
the tresses close in tightly
curled tendrils behind the
ears and at the back of the
head. Loose ringlets at the
top, entirely exposed ears
and a forehead partially
covered with a curled frisette
are features of this 1861
'renaissance.
Miss Joy wears this neyr
, hair arrangement in “The
Silent Partner,’’' a Para
mount picture, in which she
is featured with Owen Moore
and Robert Rdeson. It is
being directed by Charles
Maigne.
GLEN ECHO—
Picnic Parties.
Glen Echo Park is celebrating
the i spirit of summer, and thous
ands of Washingtonians from
early in the morning .until late
at night have thronged the re
sort and taxed the capacity of
the numerous amusement devices.
Qpaint luncheon tablee, rustic
benches, shade trees, grassy
slopes, flower gardens, gravel
walks, and lovers’ dells combine
to make the park a place of
beauty. The amusements are
• heavily patronised. The derby
racer, the coaster dip and the
skooter seem tp continue to be
the big attractions. The car
rousel, the old ipill, and the mid-,
way furnish barrels of fun. For
the Fourth of July the manage
ment announces a special after- 4
noon * dama tram- 4 to 7 o’clock
with a full orchestra' under the
leadership of A. E. Oehlmann. The
regular dancing will start at 8
o’clock and continue until clos
ing.
COLONIAL BEACH—
Batkin?.
Cojonial Beach, “Washington's
Atlantic Ciiy,” has proved popu
lar with every sailing of the
steamer St. Johns since the 2:80
p. m. trip, Saturday, when the
weK-end-Independence- Day sched
ule started. The boardwalk and
piers were crowded and scores
were, out on the Potomac in boats.
■ of the most popular diver
sions was the excellent salt water
hgthing. Sokolov’s Orchestra fur
nished the music for the dancers
■at the beach and on the steamer.
The St. Johns will make anoth
er trip ,tbls afternoon at 2:30
o'clock and' itgain tomorrow morn
ing at 9 o’clock to carry their re
mainder of the Independence Day
excursionists to . the popular re
sort. The 'forty-mile moonlight
trip last evening was well attend
ed again, the free dancing on
the spacious decks attracting
many. On account of the Fourth
'of July schedule to Colonel Beach
only one more moonlight trip will
be giyen this week which Will be
Friday night at the usual hour.
Lubitsch and Mary
Go Separate Ways
Much mystery ts the order of
the day in Los Angeles. And It’s
all on accbunt*of Herr Ernst Lu
bitsch. the temperamental Teuton
director, ’ who was considered by
all Europe as the finest movie
product ever turned out by Ger
many. He came to America for
Famous Players, did one picture,
wanted to go home again, signed
with the Warner Brothers, and
the rest is all mystery.
You see, to begin with, Ernst
was imported direct or director
from Germany by Jesse Lanky for
the express purpose of directing
Mary Pickford in a new picture.
If this picture was successful, it
was understood, Herr Lubitsch
was to continue working hand in
hand with the famous Mary. Ac
cordingly, Lubitsch packed his
baggage and was soon sailing mer
rily over the bounding main.
Arrived in this fair land, Herr
Ernst immediately signed a con
tract with Famous Players rfid
then moved on to the coast in or
der to start on his first picture
for Mary Pickford Fairbanks.
But it is whispered that Herr
Ernst’s various troubles started
right then and there. Mary had
chosen “Dorothy Vernon of Had
don Hall” for her next vehicle on
the screen. Herr Ernst threw up
his hands in horror. Direct such
a thing like that? He, Ernst Lu
bitsch, known the world over as
one of the greatest directors that
ever lived? He should say not.
“Faust” was his choice, and noth
ing else but.
Well, after long arguments pro
and con, both "Faust” and “Doro
thy Vernon” were relegated to the
scrap heap, and "The Street
Singer” was chosen in their stead.
Lubitsch directed Mary in thi?
new picture, but things evidently
did not go so well, for immediate
ly upon its conclusion, Herr Ernst
and Jesse Lasky terminated their
contract by "mutual agreement.”
Lubitsch then packed up his lit
tle trunks and was all set to sail
back home again, when suddenly
it became known that the Warner
Brothers were pushing pretty con
tracts in Herr Ernst’s grim coun
tenance. This must have acted
like a tonic on Ernst. Fact is, it
must have been Teutonic, for. ac
cording to all reports, Lubitsch
has signed with these self-same
Warner Brothers and will hence
forth direct for them exclusively.
Maybe they promised to let him
do “Faust” some time in the fu
ture? Who can tell?

"Rabbit* Sanders...—Georgia- Finney
By HAROLD PHILLIPS.
One of the nioest things about
“4-fter the Rain” is its failure
to live up to its name. The tlile -
insinuated that the piece might
deal with death, pestilence and
misunderstood motives with time
ly adjurations at each blast of
misfortune’s bugle, that every
cloud has a lining and after the
rain comes the sunshine, and WIU
every one please look at the bright
side of things; •
But, no! Pollyanpa penetrating
Russian gloom with ; her satchel
full of rose-colored spectacles. * is
nowhere to be seen, instead there
is a simple tale of love, in a. race
track setting, .plenty of comedy
and some realism as to setting
that boosts George Marshall’s bat
ting average as a showman. True
enough, pieasant things happen
after the rain to all concerned ex
cept the Villain, but this is' i*ot
intruded as evidence that every
rainbow has its of gold. > The
benefactions accruing alter the
downpour are a result, mostly, of
the machinations of “Slim” Shan
non, a map of wondrous effi- ‘
ciency who wins the girl he loves, .
confounds villainy. - helps the j
young and the feeble and lifts a
mortgage in three acts and an
epilogue.
"With “After the Rain” Messrs.
Overman and Ciempnds must
plead guilty to bootlegging "In
O i d Kentucky,”
"Checkers” and other racetrack
classics of the stage whiefh don’t
come to mind at the moment.
This is pardonable from the angle
of propriety. What Is surprising
is that out of such obvious ajld
trite hokum, the twain have ac
tually managed to extract some
good entertainment. Several of
the characterizations are rich and
ripe and there is an hilarious
burlesque in the second act of a
Daisy Ashford melodrama, that Is
very funny. Though these few
1 virtues may not save the’ piece
from spluttering like a wet fire
cracker against Broadway’s ram
parts) nevertheless they enter
tain while on view and amply.
There is the honorable and el
derly stable owner, facing bank-,
ruptcy; the Intrusion- of two
strangers, one reeking of honesty
and uprighteousness—that's "Sl|m”
Shannon —and the other, mqs
tached and sinister, that’s Albert
Caswell. They fall in love with
grandad’s niece.
Derby day comes. Big stakes
are won when Slim rings in his
own fleet steed for tb? old gent’s
decrepit entry. Only one cloud
remains on the horizon. That is
the niece’s ■' contemplated elope
ment with the villain. ,It hardly
gets started before Slim’s story of
ah innocent girl betrayed years
earlier by a certain person pres
ent, is enough to send the villain
slinking and the girl to Slim’s
own honest arms. That's the
story.
A young lady named Doris
Moore canters home with honors
of the evening. As the enfant
terrible she is the hit of the piece
and the audience so acclaimed
her. True enough, she has a fat
part, but also the talent to get
everything out of It. Fred Ray
mond is his usual good self.
Benny Sweeney gives another
fine characterization as the col
ored stable boy. Judith Anderaon
acceptably plays the niece. John
Daly Murphy, Wallis Clark, and
Joseph Creehag, all do nicely.
The piece is well and com
pletely staged. The rainstorm off
stage is perfect in its illusion,
one customer, identified as Andy
Kelley, leaving precipitately in
the second act. to close his wind
shield.
“Eli, Eli,” Hebrew
Lament, Is Litigated
For more than a score of years
-that marvelous Hebrew song, "Eli
Eli,” has moved an entire race to
tears whenever sung. The name
of the author was shrouded in
complete mystery, but •ast week,
when more than 250,000 copies of
it have been sold, one Jacob K.
Sandler rises like Banquo’s ghoSt
and claims that he is the author
of this tear-jerking ballad. He
has brought suit against Joseph
P. Katz in the United States Dis
trict Court, peeking to enjoin Katz
from further publishing this song.
But Katz has in turn retained
attorneys, because he declares
that. Sandler is as much the
author of "EH Eli” as he is of
“The Moonlight Sonata” or "I'm
Just Wild About Harry.” In their
answer to Sandler’s complaint, the
lawyers declare on behalf of their
client that the song is almost as
old as the Hebrew persecution.
AVolff says it is an ancient chant,
probably sung by the co-religion
ists of the two litigants long
before the first ever heard of it
and the second commenced to pub
lish it. It was, of course, revised
and rearranged during the many
years of its alleged existence and
brought to such a point of plain
. tiveness that now when Belle
Baker, the vaudeville luminary,
sings it “Ell Eli” can bring tears
to a glass eye.
