BY LEONE CASS BAER.
BECAUSE no two objects can oc
cupy the same space at the same
time Alexander Carr, clever Josie
Heather and cute little Elsie Pilcer
have to be told about one at a time.
Josie is the perky, sparitly-voiced
English comedienne who brings her4
little sister Bobbie along to bob up
in a Scotch song. Josie has that in
describable gift called charm, and a
nice little intimately friendly way of
singing her songs. She does one, half
sings, half chats it, about a play she
sees, as an observer in an imaginary
audience. Another is about flirting
in the moonlight which is given new
ideas in the little Heather's inter
pretation. With the dancing Bobbie, she does
a Scotch song and for good measure
tells about Sarah who was handi
capped by a twitching of her- eyelid
which, misinterpreted as a wink, got
her into such messes; and Sarah was
such a nice girl, too. Josie got a
bunch of flowers from somebody, and
we all wished we'd thought to send
her some, too. Josie has a nice chap,
John McLaughlin, playing the piano
for her.
Alexander Carr is a comedian of
quality, of quiet methods and a com
pelling personal appeal. He is the
central figure in a sketch called "An
NUMBER OF SHRINE
Headqunrtem nt Imperial.

20. 11, .Baker; solo. Miss Lorena Riley;
vincing figure of an old Hebrew who
has retired comfortably after 20 years
of selling umbrellas. His niece is the
apple of his eye and shares his home.
With her happiness secure in her ap
proaching marriage, the old man plans
a bit of happiness for himself, a ro
mance long delayed, and the luxury
of an automobile. Then an event
transpires in which the old fellow
must sacrifice his own happiness or
that of Irma. the beloved niece. It
would be unfair to tell the ending of
the story. It is well enacted, inter
esting and entertaining. Mr. Carr's
humor is delightful and his pathos is
admirably genuine. His telephonic
communication with the Amelia ot his
own romance was noteworthy for its
human depths and reality. A company
of three members supports Mr. Carr.
Elsie Pilcer is the little sister of
Harry Pilcer who was dancing part
ner for nearly a dozen years with the
late Gaby Deslys, and the little Pil
cer's sensational gowns and bead
dresses used in her present act were
designed for her by the little French
dancer whose style in raiment was
world renowned. Elsie Pilcer still
has her trick of tr'lllng a high "brd
note in staccato accompaniment to
her partner's singfng and the partner,
Dudley Douglas, happening to have a
capital singing voice, the combina
tion is strikingly successful. Elsie
dances gaily and spends three
fourths of her time coming out 'n,
and coming almost out of, gorgeous
apparel. Her combinings of furs,
laces, jewels and embroidered mate
ials and hats are a chapter and give
one a pause. Dudley is a capital
entertainer and carries on at a great
fun. rate with Elsie, singing new di
verting songs while Elsie changes
her wardrobe.
Merlin defies description. He proves
that black is white, that the ace of
spades is the queen of hearts, that
a glass full of water went smack
dab through a derby hat, leaving
no trace of its trail and that Barnum
was right. Merlin has a snappy style,
vigorous and manly, smilinelv de
bonair and alertly attuned to good
comedy. His tricks are a riot of fun.
The Melody Garden is a picturesque
spot with moonlight flooding a bit
of garden, a path-bordered pool and
marble bench with trees bending
down to encompass the spot. A group
of girl musicians weave magic mel
odies as they stroll through the gar
den. Their instruments include vio
lins, saxophones and horns of a
dozen sorts, and their music is de
lightful. They particularly emphasize
rhythm. The novelty and harmonic
beauty of the act called forth con
tinual applause. The audience re
mained seated, a most unusual hap
pening durjng a closing act.
La ler lives up to his name, for
a lazier athlete never "athleted." His
partner is Worth and he is well worth
while. The two have one of the
keenest of athletic turns and prove a
constant source of interest and
amazement. They are both clean-cut.
smiling chaps, and go through
their sensational maneuvers quietly,
smoothly and happily. One is a
strong-arm chap and the other a
wiz" at balances and turns.
Earl and Sunshine are two girls
who compare the songs and steps of
yesteryear with those of today. This
bill closes with the matinee on
Wednesday.
Hippodrome.
FUN predominates on the new bill
at the Hippodrome, and there Isn't
a single dull act. A sketch called
"Waiters Wanted was so amusing
that it stopped the show and every
other line called forth applause.
A trio of capables- Francis, Clark
arid Brown -put the act across clever
ly One of the trio is a good-looking
girl, who poses as a sophisticated,
gum-cbewing pro'prietress'of a restau
rant and to wbonr two ex'-convicts
make application for work on read
ing a sign, she has put out," -"Waiters
Wanted." The conversation Is of un
flagging interest and revolves around
the questions 'asked the two; pros
pects by the girl.- The audience, get
ting the double plar on jail terms and
restaurant expressions,-Js hilarious".
Both the men, are. good comedians.
Lee Nash s ,V' clever chap. - He
sings with drawn out originalities in
harmony, and chats Intimately of his
co-artists," making diverting disclos
ures regarding others on the bill. His
conversation is in a class by itself,
pointed as to wit and exceedingly re
freshing. He comes out with a clari
net which he does not play but with
which he provides more downright

The El Roy sisters are keen girls,
mil of pep and joy. They are grace
ful, accomplished steppers, dexterous
and nimble in their terpsichorean ac
tivities. After they have won homes
for themselves with their singing and
dancing they delight further with
Hawaiian music on steel guitars.
Their costumes are smart and attrac
tive in coloring.
Harry Brown and Harry Evans can
dance any step. The orchestra picks
out, tunes of every conceivable sort
and the two Harrys fit their ;clever
feet Into the music and action.' Their
whirlwind dancing excites applause.
For punctuation they exchange jokes.
Two women seated in the audience
provide most of the fun in the last
act, ."Frolics of Youth." A group of
children are graduating from school
and the exercises provide opportun
ities for the juveniles to dance and
sing. Two mothers are in the audi
ence and Ikey locates his mother and
carries on a conversation with her.
Manuel, another boy graduate, finds
his mamma, too. and soon the two
mothers, seated in the audience, are
carrying on a fine argument over the
merits of their respective boys, while
the boys themselves try to stop the
riot. Finally the two fond mammas
"go outside" they say to finish it,
and the two boys clinch jn a fight
and the curtain falls.
The photo play is "Respectable by
Proxy" and features the talented
Sylvia Breamcr.
Lijric.
FULL of clever new songs and en
tertaining comedy is "His Royal
Nobs," which will be at the Lyric all,
this week. Mike and Ike, played by
Ben Dillon and Al Franks, are ship
wrecked on tne shores of an Indian
kingdom and are about to be be
headed, when an American, who is
posing' as a magician, saves them.
Mike then impersonates a woman and
takes the eye of the rajah until he
is forced to remove his veil. . Then
Ike is made king, because the" people
are going to revolt and the rajah
wants someone beheaded in his place.
A poker party between Mike, Ike
and the rajah, with tne first person
who talked forfeiting the pot, brought
the house down.
"When the Moon Shines on the
Moonshine," sung by Will Rader,
made a big hit. Other numbers were
"Swish Song," Billie Bingham' with
the chorus; "The Little Church Around
the Corner," Carlton Chase and
chorus; "Suwanee Lullaby," Clarence
Wurdtg and chorus, and "Dreamy
Amazon," Dorothy Raymond and the
chorus. The Rosebud chorus appeared
in a number of attractive costumes.
Billie Bingham as Jess, the wife of
Jack, the American magician, effect
ively played the role of the lonesome
young wife whose husband was flirt
ing with- the girls of the court. She
had the house in an uproar when she
"vamped" "His Royal Nobs." The role
of Ralah, one of the ladies of the
court, .was taken by Dorothy Ray
mond. Her solo, "Dreamy Amazon,"
was one of the big numbers.
"The Roads We Take," a Vitagraph
picture, and the Gaumont Travel
Weekly open the bill.
