AMUSEMENTS
"Uncle Tom's Cabin"
There has never been so lavish and
adequate a production of "Uncle
Tom's Oalbin'' as that which Kibble
and Martin will offer amusement lovers
at tile Majestic on Friday afternoon
and evening. The scenes Which are
large enough to fill the most spacious
stage could not be easily improved.
Those representing the Ohio river in
winter, the rocky pass in which George
Harris protects his family, the St.
Olaire plantation, the levee at New
Orleans, the cotton fields in full bloom,
and the "Celestial City," are all most
notable effects. Each pictures the real
ity as closely as paint and canvas will
permit and the stage prospecting is so
biig that the effecit is exceptionally
pleasing. The company is also worthy of
the environment. Gus CYrilins, the emi
nent minstrel star, offers an excellent
etudy of Uncle Tom.—Adv.*

of the story is 1664, when the present
metropolis of America, New York Oitv,

''Whin Old New York Was Dutch;"
i there is plenty of color in scenic effects
! and in the brilliant uniforms of the
English and the quaint costumes of the
Dutch; there are emotional situations

1 course, there are songs composed and
rendered by the stnr, the kind of songs

"Moon, Moon, Moon," "When the

"Mr. Bear."—Adv.*

craft makes their offering a pleasing
"»ig!h act" and the delightful harmony
of the company of vocalists has never
been equalled at the Orpheiwn. Laughter
however, is the keynote of the bill. It
reai-hes its height in the excellent
George Ade comedy called "Speaking
to Pa-ther," that Milton Pollovk and
company are presenting. This comedy
playlet is good for one continuous
laugh. Another of the bill's very pop
uhr acts is the breezy and catchy
flirtation skit presented by Harry and
Eva Puck.
This clever coup'.e rank with the best
known in vaudeville and even though
few Orpheum patrons recall them since
they were here before, it is only fair to
say that they are one of the most pop
ular teams on the bill. The Pucks are
profbaibly not so well remembered here
because the last time thev appeared
at the Orpheum, they did a very clever
juvenile act. But "brother and sister

than before. The Wille Brothers offer

At the Colonial
Df you would tJiijoy your shopping
tours, then do your shopping at the
Country Store. This popular feature
will again be in vogue at the Busy
Corner to-night and many valuable ana

Quite a few good comedy stunts have
been concocted so that a night of
laughs is undoubtedly in store for all.
In addition to Country Store to-night

"Pun iu Poppyiand," the cleverest lit

tuneful songs and delightful scenery
make this an irresistible concoction.
Three other clever Keith hits make the
