KlNO—iu Uu» «iQr, Nevambar 7, 1913, Wil- Welch Convulses Audience "Chocolate Soldier" Still Wins Orpheum Bill, Filled With Headlines, Proves Best in Many Months If the audience that filtered into the Orpheum yesterday afternoon nurtured any glooms as a consequence of the threatening clouds outside, the audi ence that flowed from the theater after the performance didn't care a darn if it snowed, and all because its risibili ties were tickled into a stale of near collapse through the connivance of one Joe Welch, character comedian. That same audience tried hard to make six headline attractions where there should be, by all right of vaudeville ethics, but one. But what are you going to do to an audience to make it behave when it has been thrilled by a clever sketch one min ute, dragged to the heights of emotion by a capable actress the next, cuddled and teased by a team of snappy sing ers and dancers, and finally jarred into hysterics by a Hebrew comedian In considerate enough not to quit hurl ing gags when he sees his auditors begging for mercy and a chanec to ease their aching ribs? The scheduled headliner was "The Six Musical Cuttys," boys and girls equally divided as to sex and ability, who participated in a musical melange Involving pianos, brass instruments, ' violins and a cello. They worked ■ against odds on account of their posi- I tion at closing and the fact that those present were fairly satiated with musical offerings. Despite this handi cap they got their just due of ap pla use. The Three Collegians started things moving with "A Bit of College Life." It was frothy, musical, terpsiehorean, had a clever gag or so and was well liked. Thrills, with the right proportion of comedy, were furnished by S. Miller Kent and his company in "The Real Q." styled the Raffles In vaudeville. Kent has been here before with a similar playlet. His present sketch is decidedly interesting, has a genuine surprise twist and, as a whole, was ably acted. Kent appeared to have ac quired a slight staginess that in a measure marred his conception of the principal character, which is really Raffles under a new name. A bit of effervescence came from Fred Warren and Kffie Conley. Their little mixture was sparkling and filled with appealing subtleties. Its ingredients were songs, dances and piano playing. The program said, "some singing, some dancing, some piano." and it told the truth. Ralph Smalley was another new comer, who proved to be a pleasing ceiloist of more than ordinary talent. What Other Playhouses Are Offering This Week ALCAZAR After having heard of Alexandre Bisson's powerful play, "Madame X," scoring success in almost every civil ized country, San Francisco's theater goers are to have the privilege of see ing it more than adequately presented this evening and throughout the week at popular prices in the Alcazar. Eve lyn Vaughan, Bert Lytell and the best talent of the stock company have had two weeks in which to rehearse this really remarkable dramatic work, so an unusually smooth opening per formance is assured. A feature of the performance to night will be the first appearance of Florence Carson as a member of the Alcazar company. Miss Vaughan will have the title part, with Mr. Lytell as the young advocate, and Kernan Crlpps, Frank Burke, Burt Wesner, Ralph Bell, Ed mond Lowe, Louise Brownell, Adele Belgarde and all the other favorites appropriately cast. ! GRAUMAN'S IMPERIAL "The Count of Monte Cristo," with the world renowned romantic actor. James O'Neill, in the role of Edmond Dantes. which he has portrayed for more than 5.000 times on tne stage, was presented in fllmnttzed form at Orauman's Imperial theater yesterday to crowded houses. Mr. O'Neill, in "The Count of Monte Cristo." is sup ported by an exceptionally capable company and throughout the produc tion is lavish in every detail. Mr. O'Neill will he seen at the Imperial during the entire coming week. Commencing Sunday, November 16, Daniel Frohman will present his most popular and fascinating star. Mary Pickford, in a filmatised version of Mrs. Fiske's notable success, "Ca price" An added feature of the bill this week is a wild animal picture In three parts, entitled "Terrors of the Jungle," or "The Life and Death Lure of Africa's Wilds." PANTAGES An excellently varied bill with breezy comedy is presented at the Pantages this week. "A Winning Miss" is brimful of tinkling melodies and pretty girls. Mrs. Alma Zinkand and Orace Thompson made their pro fessional debut amid a profusion of floral offerings. The duo have a dainty singing specialty. Keit and Demont in an acrobatic talking number scored big. The laughing hit of the show was made by three tiny comedians, the Poceolo midgets. One of the interesting numbers on the program was the exclusive showing of motion pictures of the football game at Stan ford university Saturday. Provol, a bird and whistling ventriloquist; Gor don and Day, comedy bicyclist, and the Collette trio, instrumentalists, rounded out the bill.

Three of the six musical Cuttys at Orpheum and Antoinette Kopetsky at Cort I GAIETY I "The Candy Shop" at the Gaiety continues to disgorge a stock of tasty things that tickle the local playgoing palate as few theatrical confections have ever done in the past. The program this week is still further strengthened by the inclusion in the famous cabaret scene of Rock and Fulton's excruciatingly funny trav esty of Sarah Bernhardt in "Camilla." This is a gem of slmon pure burlesque that can no more grow stale than the Bernhardt herself. Will Philbrick, the undulating com edian, is singing a new song, "Rlziy Boo," the product of a San Francisco man and a new accession to the Bplendid cast is Mary Ambrose, whose services the Gaiety management lost no time in securing after her legal fight recently With the statuesque Kitty Gordon. The fact that smoking is permitted at the Gaiety has added enormously to the popularity of this playhouse. i EMPRESS Much comedy abounds in the new bill at the Empress theater this week. The headline offering is a comedy of the future entitled "In 1999." a do mestic, triangle of a day 86 years hence, with the characters of the neglected wife, the husband busy with his friends and his club and the third party in love with the neglected wife. Derkins' Dog and Monkey Panto mime company is the special feature, presenting "Dogville on a Busy Day." Tho dogs and monkey perform well and enact the usual drama of the dog village. The spirit paintings is a truly mystifying and a very interest ing act. Ray Belmont has an ex cellent tenor voice for different songs, comprising rag and ballad numbers, and was well received. Pollard, the talkative juggler, offers ■ neat jug gling act. William Cahill, the man from Ireland, opens with an Irish song, goes into a monologue and fin ishes with a couple of other songs that lands him strong with the audi ence at the finish. Two other at tractions complete a strong bill. f~ SAVOY t • ■ ♦ "The Undying Story of Captain Scott" continues to please large au diences at the Savoy theater. Th*»t>e really remarkable pictures are vividly explained by Mr. Ch Aries Hanford, the noted Shakespearean actor. The films show the trip marie by Captain Scott and his little party In search of the south pole which ended fatally for the daring explorer. They carry the spectator almost to the very pole itself, and depict many thrilling sights in those froxen regions. Mat inees are given every afternoon at 2:30 and the evening at 8:80.

Four seasons on the road have not marred the intrinsic merit of this me loodius concoction, because, like the biblical reference of the two men who built houses, "The Chocolate Soldier" was builded upon a rock, the rock in this case being George Bernard Shaw's entertaining satire. "Arms and the Man." Oscar Straus has helped in the building by composing music . worthy of the adaptation. "My Hero," the only solo in the entire opera bouffe, proved as ap pealing as ever when snng by a charming Nadina Popoff in the per son of Antoinette Kopetsky. One of the chief delights of "The Chocolate Soldier" is a consistent story that runs through it all, ad hering as closely as possible to the play from which it was taken. The spirit of satire intended by Shaw is sustained In this muslcalisation. and the cast portraying the various roles enter into the spirit of the piece, as well. Charles Purcell, as Lieutenant Bumeril. the Chocolate Soldier, so named because of his craving for the saccharine confection, possesses a tenor voice of pleasing quality and displays' a comedy penchant well suited to the part. Owing to a sudden attack of pto maine poisoning, George Tillman was unable to appear. His part of Major Alexius Spiridoff was ably done by Edward Beck. The other members of the cast proved very satisfying. Francis J. Boyle as Captain Masakroff was as funny as he was ferocious in appear ance. He strutted and growled to the bombastic music that marked his every entrance in a fashion that caused rippies of merriment to burst from the audience. Lottie Collins as Mascha won the house by her spright- Uness and clever dancing. Unlike other comic operas. "The Chocolate Soldier" improves with age, yet doesn't seem to grow old.

SCHUMANN-HEINK SCORES SUCCESS Prima Donna's Versatility De lights Large Audience at Cort Theater Ernestine Schumann-Heink. the in comparable, delighted her audience at the Cort yesterday by the Versatility disaplayed in her characterizations. Her change from one moood to an other is as facile as her astonishing vocal jumps from one register to the other. Yesterday, In her first num ber, the aria from Mozart's "Sextus," she ran up the scale 10 notes at a time and hit the upper tone squarely in the middle and without a break in her breathing. The program yesterday was one of wide range of mood and period. The Beethoven group was early given to U« —*H of them stately songs of a more sacred character; "DieEhreOot tes." full of sublimity; "Vom Tode." filled with a grave mystery and dread —here the singer's voice gave out the mellow quality of a French horn. "Bitten" showed a splendid, filutelike quality of tone in the softer passages. 'Teh Liebe Dich" was a lesson in per fection of breath control. Of the Schubert group, the "Hedge Hose" song pleased most. A slight break In the breathing was apparent In the "Dv Blst die Ruh." The fa miliar "Wanderer" was filled with inexpressible longing. The "Mond nacht" of Schumann and •'Theffc" of Brahms were marked by a graceful fluency and lightness. The Reger "Waldeinsamkelt" was sung with such poetic insight that the audience was only satisfied with a repetition. The ariette from "Waffenschmidt" of Lortzlng was easily the hit of the afternoon. This number, humorously philosophical in character, was de claimed with dramatic fervor—then the singer jumped from the querulous to the wistful; then showed her rare fund of humor in the love making passage. The same sense of comedy was evident in the encore, a little Dutch song of a mother and daughter. The audience bubbled over it and got still one more encore from the gen erous singer, this time an Irish "Mavourneen." Sehumann-Heink's next concert will take place next Friday afternoon at Ye Liberty theater, Oakland, at 3:15 o'clock. COLUMBIA Henry Miller In the A. B. Thomas comedy, "The Rainbow," has a most substantial success to his credit at the Columbia theater, where, this evening, the second and last week of the Miller engagement begins. The best evidence of the success of this play is the big advance sale of Beats for the closing performances. "The Rainbow' will be given for the last time next Saturday night. Matinees on Wednesday and Saturday. The Columbia theater management announces that the Julian Eltinge en gagement, which opens next Sunday, is to be positively limited to one week and Eltinge will bring back for that time his big success of last year, "The Fascinating Widow." The engage ment will be followed by that of "Stop Thief." Next Wednesday, November 12th, we inaugurate two new departments. On the main floor a section devoted to DRESS SUIT CASES and TRAVELING BAGS. On the Third Floor a thoroughly complete TRUNK DE PARTMENT. Great special sales j will make conspicu ous the opening day. We recommend that anyone anticipating the purchase of either a dress suit case, a. traveling bag, or a trunk—wait until Wednesday, when we promise values that will repay them for waiting.
