Last night brought a new Winter Rnr
den show to tho Lyric. A critical estimate
of this particular mammoth of musical
comedy land, which distinguishes Itself
by employing tho services of Al Jolson,
will nppear In the Eve.nino LEDoen of

A Change at the Gnrrlck
Tho bookings of the Gnrrlck for the

produced at tho Llttlo Theatre "A Olrl

deals with a girl whoso guardian dies,
leaving her on the charity of her relatives
and friends.
Keith's
Honors are about even uctween Caro
lina White and Trlxle Frlganza this week
nt Keith's. Each brought prolonged ap
plause, which stopped the show, by
widely different methods. Miss Whltc,
prima donna of the Philadelphia-Chicago
Opera Company, delighted her hearers
with familiar selections. Her excellent
voice, plus a pleasing personality and a
cordial manner, gained friends on the
very first selection. She offered among
other things "Romeo ct Juliette," "O Sole
Mlo" nnd "Annie Laurie" with that chdr
actcrlstlc expression which made her a
favorite In the world of opera. Miss
Whlto was accompanied by Hoctor Mc
Carthy. The show was almost finished when
Miss Frlganza arrived, but she practically
ripped It open and started It all over
ngain. She flopped on the stage with no
ndo whatever nnd was talking nwny for
dear llfo before the peopln could realize
how sho got In. Sho Jumped from songs
to monologues and stories In a fashion
that kept Leader Schraedcr on his toes.
Miss Frlganza was at vnrlous times a
cabaret singer, a Juliet, an Indian squaw,
a mandarin, a tangoer and finally a
bullet dancer. Her songs came In fits
nnd stnrts, the one about "Love ln a
Livery Stable" taking first honors. Sho
was ably assisted by F. B. Carman and
Jimmy Fox.
Jn nn entirely new atmosphere Lucy
Gillette presented a novel Juggling act,
with quaint comedy. She Juggled chairs,
tables, (lower pots and plates at one time,
and between these remarkable stunts In
dulged In quick acrobatics. She made a
solid hit.
Harry Bcresford and company pre
sented "Twenty Odd Venrs," a very good
sketch, winch would bo better If con
densed somewhat. Adler and Arllne, near
hypnotist i, repeated their former suc
cess. Tho Berrcns, in n musical act; Mar
tin Van Buren. the cowboy singer, and
Nat Nazarro nnd company also won ap
proval with entertaining offerings.
Here nnd There
"The Dream Pirates," a nautical tab
loid with elaborate scenic effects and a
warlike atmosphere, Is at the Globe. This
act, which Is presented by II. Bart Mc
Huch. has a cast of 10 persons. The
comedy la Interspersed with novel musl
cnl numbers. There la plenty of "pep
and ginger" and laughs,
Frnnk Milton nnd the DeLong Sisters
truth may be told) felt rather foolish.
But he had decided to explore this game
till he found what was bo nice about It,
so he set to work.
He blew up the water Into a fine spray.
He dashed It over the piers till they
dripped with the moisture. He even called
his friend Jack Frost to help him and
together they froze wnlte caps and lacy
frills all over those gaunt gray piers.
The fairies clapped their hands and pre
tended to talk to the elegantly dressed
"ladles" Mr. North Wind had placed
along the docks, and even Mr. North
Wind himself had to admit that making
ladles and lace frills out of piers and
spray was more fun than sitting around
doing nothing,
Tht fairies clapped their handi and
onUndtii talk lo tht elegantly dreistd
"ladles" Ur. Worth, Wind had placed
olonn tht docks.
And hU Joy was oulte complete when,
a little later In the day, some people
walked along the wharf and exclaimed,
"Just see those piers; they took exactly
like ladles dressed up for party!" Mr.
North Wind howled. "I did It." In their

nn nbundnnce of comedy nnd situations
which are unique.
Tho urco Brothers perform a number
of difficult hand-balancing feats and
their net Is different from th usual run.
The temnlnder of the bill Is evenly bal
anced with comedy, music nnd novelties.
The very latest Ideas In Juggling nre
shown by tho Werner Amoros Troupe nt
tho Nixon Grand. Tho fents performed
by some of Its members seem to defy nil
laws of gravity. Tho act is presented In
spectacular form nnd abounds in thrills.
An nbundnnco of good music is found In
tho offering of Tho Six Llttlo Honoy
Bees, Juvenile artists who deal with tho
latest melodies. Fun for tho children is
piovlded by the Cabaret Dogs, which nre
musical ns well as acrobatic.
Robins, tho one-man bnnd shows how
grand opera, ragtime and love ballads
can be offered entertainingly on a har
monica; timely topics figuro prominently
In the acts which tako up tho remainder
of the bill. Tho pictures nre ln keeping
with the show.
A dash of the spirit of Broadway Is
given by Mny Ward, the Dresden doll
comedienne. In "Tho Cash Girl," a lively
comedy offering, which heads tho bill at
the Cross Keys. Miss Ward puts action
In every moment on tho stage, and has
a few surprises which give zest to her
performance. A trio of beautiful girls
aro the central figures ln Losky's Threo
Types, n pretty posing turn, which is
given with highly artistic environment.
Classical and up-to-dato selections, alter
nated with quick comedy, make the act
of tho Parisian Trio unique ln Its clnss.
An element of penco nnd happiness Is
given In "At tho Shoro of Klllarney,"
presented by Walsh nnd Walsh. The re
maining acts nre nil of tho up-to-the-mlnuto
type.
The troubles "f the present-day com
mTclnl house figure In "The Buyer from
Pittsburg," which Is presented by Harry
Happ nt the William Penn. There Is nn
.abundance of good business epigrams nnd
an overflow or v. It, which hold attention
until the shop is closed. Sitting lazily on
a suitcase, Tim McMahon shos how ap
parently easy It is to keep nn audience
In hysterics ns he quarrels with his wife,
Edythe Chappelle, because they missed
the trnln. McMahon gives many good
points to husbands who aie not particu
lar nbout the truth. Good harmony ntid

net of Vlvlnn Ford and Harry Howltt.
The show Is rounded out by several other
good offerings.

The fourth of tho five Boston Symphony

Boston of his leading last Friday, con

services of Messrs. Wltek and Noack, of

so Just and so perfected a concert as tho

un nl walk on alternate stops on tho
fit st thrco counts of tho muslo and on
tlio fourth count a pause.
On tho first beat of tho musical measure
tho Indy taken n forward step of nbout
flvo Inches, lining tho knee a trlfio and
pointing the too so that tho movement
shall hnve nil tho statellncss possible.
Thn second step, tnl.en with the left
font. Is slmllnr In rlintncter lo the first
and of tho name longth, and comes on
rount "two." As tho lady takes this
step sh" should withdraw her right hand
from that of her cavalier and carry It
under his right arm, which ho extends to
her right.
With tho third count the Indy takes her
final step forward on tho right foot,
places tho fingers of her right hand ln
personal emphasis. Bo lt -was their work
manship, rather than their virtuosity,
which enmo out, and which devoted it
self not to exploitation of their talents,
hut to Interpretation of tho material they
plajed. Of it only the Largo, best-beloved
of all Bach's slow movements, evoked
memory nnd passion. Its beauty which
is not strange. Its dignity which Is not
moribund, Its pleasures which cannot bo
tawdry, are not of our time. With tho
soloists playing tbe concerto was heard
tho string choir, of tho orchestra, which
Is, perhaps, tho subllmest instrument of
our time. Of tho felicity of Its playing,
nnd tho smooth sonority of Its tone noth
ing need be said. For nothing thnt can
be said can do Justice to its perfection.
And that perfection camo out again In
the three other pieces of the evening. To
gether with Bach they were tho completed
figuro of music, which can be, at Its best,
thn fulfilled figure of llfo. It you aro un
willing to bo stirred, both to thought nnd
to fooling, you should not hear muslo:
certainly not tho music which Doctor
Muck can evoke. For It Is to tho con
ductor that tho task falls ot creating the
metaphysical Illusion whoso Bccrets, says
Francis Grlerson, are ofton felt but never
uttered. What the pleasures ot primitive
llfo were I do not know; but surely the
greatest pleasuro of our modern life Is
partaking ot tho Illusions which art can
conjuro. Last night the conductor, ad
justing tone nnd noceut, bent and rhythm,
nuanco nnd climax, mado that partaking;
nn Olymplnn festival.
Olympian, nnd not heavenly. Because
tho feet of Olympus nro on earth, even
as we nro on earth. So that which began
ln tho melancholy shadows of Slbollus,
and had Its moment of divine benuty In
tho Incffnble sadness and graco and long,
ing of his nniinnte, returned to earth In
tho "Carnival" of Dvorak, and returned
suffuspd with fineness and richness nnd
an unknown glory. This Is the aristocracy
of art nnd llfo, that In It all things, the
vulgar nnd tho beautiful, tho tragic and
the serene, havo their Just place, that life
and art treat us not so much ns we de
serve as In ncconlnnce with tho dignity
nnd nobility which la their own.
It is, of course, possible that none of
these things were Implicit In the muBlo
played Inst night. But In the carefully
wrought elaboration of his work Doctor
Murk draws taut tho suspension from
which tho Imagination of his hearers
eventually breaks. If tho tension Is ovcr-
draun, and tho Imagination runs wild,
unit is n misionuno. uut to each. In his ,
own fashion, the music spoke. From each, j
according to his ability. It called forth nn

those of her cavalier's left, which he It
holding behind his back and without mov
ing the left foot forward, raises the hoel
from the floor. Her body Is inclined to
ward the left, her head nnd shouldeu
slightly tilted, and tho left hand rests
on her left hip.
Meanwhile, the cavalier has proceeded
much In tho same way ns his lady. On
count "one" he has taken a short forward
step wtth his right foot, lifting tho knee,
and on tho second count has taken an
other of that typo on the left foot. And
on this count, after releasing tho hand
of his lady, he has extended his right
arm so that on the third count the hand
may como to a point Just abovo his part
ner't left hip. As he takes his next step,
on count "threo" and with the right foot,
tho cavalier Inclines his body a bit to
tlio right and passing his loft arm be
hind his back ho takes with the left
hand the right hand of his lady, which Is
close ngalnst his right side nnd under his
right arm.
Tho fourth count is a pause for the
dancers, who prepare In It for the contin
uation of tho figuro which brings the
Pavlowana to a close. I would caution
all who undertako this new dance of
mine to endeavor, during this pause, to
maintain a perfect bnlanoe and, espec
ially, to avoid "teterlng."
