FIVE FINE ACTS BILL TONIGHT Another excellent bill Is to ap pear on the Association Vaudeville tour at the Helllg theater this eve ning. The program this evening has five excellent acts, two of them headllners, short subjects and the weekly concert number of the Helllg concert orchestra. Arnold and Florence, from the English Music Hall, do a lot of balancing, a little dancing and some comedy, Arnold will prove to be one of the best balancers seen at the Helllg theater this year, and Miss Florence steps about rather lively and contributes some real comedy.- A surprise finish leaves an audience convinced that the art of makeup Is a wonderful thing. The making of smoke pictures has reached the stage of perfection where art Is more Interesting than the old style of making pictures with crayon or paint. Stuart Dar row Is deservedly reckoned the fore most artist In this line. His latest and original novelty Is to cover two large plates with smoke, and pictures are produced by rubbing out the background. Some very remarkable pictures are created) from his fingers and hands. A brilliant company of six grace! rui gins comprises me uuaa oai let, one of the most sensational dance offerings In vaudeville. The program they deliver runs the en tire gamut of terplschore. While several names ars featured In the! billing, It would be an Injustice to classify them as principals and the rest suborlnates, for every member of the company contributes gener ously to the success of the produc tion. Special mention, however, must be made of Adele Jeanne, the premier danseuse, who contributes some sensational Oriental' numbers. The act opens with a do doll ban dit, Introducing stolen dolls, and as the curtain rises the Dutch, Sol dier, French and Raggedy Ann dolls are shown, and they go right into a mechanical doll dance. Trout and Heff, two men who call themselves "Two Black Spasms" ars a sure cure for the blues. They have style and man nerisms all their own and Inter mingling their special comedy songs, making the turn one of the best two-man blackface acts on the road. They indulge In the low brow type of colored and humor ous, especially the closing duet In which they work In topical verses on local conditions and events. They seem to have an endless ar ray of these verses for they are ever ready to respond to as many curtain calls as they receive, which Is usually plenty. One member of the team works as the swell, over dressed colored "Puhson." while his partner Is the typical down south back alley "good-foh-nuthin moke." The Empire comedy quartette, America's funniest four, a big sur prise awaits you. This Is one of the best headllners on the road. Through an error, it was announc ed yesterday that the last show would start at 9. The announce ment should have read 8:4ft.
