They are an original, clever pair. Walton and Miss Brant have a cap ital comedy turn. Walton gets exas perated at the apparent dull witted ness of his pretty partner, firing an avalanche of questions at her and get tin? wrong answers, which set the house In uproars. Then he takes the nobody-home girl to a bail game and her literal acceptance of all he says proves a riot before the act ends. One of the trio in the Joe Kane, Jos Morey and Frank Moore act is a won der in holding a pole balanced on his forehead while another of the trio goes through a series of poses high In the air, suspended to the other end of the pole by his feet. They add other adventures In hand-stands and originalities in balancing, which thrill and Interest. Coleman and pretty Miss Ray re turn with their wonderful walking dolls and entertain delightfully.

Little Caruso has a well trained voice of warmth and color, and he sings easily selections from grand opera and other songs. But Little Caruso is not the entire act, although the others are simply billed as "and company." One of the "and company" is an excellent tenor and he sings "Mother Machree" beau tifully, playing his own accompani ment on a stringed instrument. He has a likeable personality and his voice has an appealing sympathetic quality that stirs the audience. , Two interesting girls with- good rolces sing also in the company, and a ballet dancer adds two vivacious and spirited dances. The scene, a ver andah, glimpsing the moonlit harbor and twinkling village lights is ex cept tonally pretty, and the singers in costume add further to the pictur esqueness.
