Thus 10,000 pound of live in, au be aooommodatoa ia, so ear There's a hot time at the Lyric this week when "The Belle of the Ranch," a regular wild West cowboy stock play, with musical interpolations, is pre sented. The. thrills of lynching and cattle stealing are mingled with ro mance pure and primal, and with a smattering of comedy. The 'Alhambra Musical Company does ample Justice to the good old stock play, and - the chorus is "all dolled up" in pretty new costumes. A strong impersonation of Frank Marvel, the foreman of "Z Ranch," is given by Jack Ownbey. the central figure of the drama. Florence Curtis, owner of "Z Ranch and a Denver society girl, ventures into Arizona to investigate cattle stealing on her prop erty. Barbara Jtiaaiand plays this role. Before she realizes it she finds herself In love with Frank. Then comes the villain, Richard Huntley, played by Val HowUnd. Under cover he accuses Several Acceptable Vaudeville Offer- Inge Are on Bill, and Some Excellent Films. Colorful, breezy and varied, a bill of art and fun marks the week as the Strand's best show so far. The kalel doscopic vaudeville runs from riotous comedy to old English romanticism and then plunges Into the mystery and fascination of ancient Egypt. For there's a young and beautiful dancer, of snaky and artful charm, who pre sents an artistic pantomime number. Verria Misereau is the headllner. She glides on the stage serpent-like In scarlet robe, and does a queer Egyp tian dance. Her sweetheart snatches the scarlet garment, and she revels In a wild dance, clad only in a fleecy oriental garb, with bare feet, and her beautiful figure showing in the soft colored light like a mediaeval picture. She's like some fascinating vampire from the history of the Pharaohs, so when the high priest tells her to take vengeance of her sweetheart, who has slain her Pharaoh, the audience gasps, and she plunges a dagger in his bosom. and falls dead on his body. Henry Gunson, the singing fisher man and ex-opera singer, wins ap plause and gives an act of superior quality, with a popular ring that takes with the audience. Hawley & Hawley. two clever come dians who almost fool everybody and do make everybody laugh, have much ado about a tardy co-worker. A typical "Bridget" and a pretty young singer are Beach & Lynn, who give & likable act. Almost everyone knows of Tenny son's "Maud, and the romance sug gested. "Naked Hearts," a Bluebird film play, preserves it all and Is one of remarkable interest and pictur esqueness. Robert Julian plays the hero, who loses his mind after a trag edy and whose checkered romance goes from England to France and back. Spe cial music accompanies the photoplay, Sommerville's cycle of lyrics from "Maud" being played by Melville Os-den.
