their appreciation, Bomethlng almost
unheard of in Oklahoma City when
the people have to be "shown" that
an act has real worth before they
give it the Htamp of their approval.
Kagg and White In their "Bit of Afrl-
canology" and Waldron and Brandt
in their "Trials of a young Bug at a
Baseball Came" are two of the big
I comedy features. Blaisdell and Web-
ster have a sketch portraying scenes
In a vaudeville booking agency that
takes well. Ward and Manning have
a clever singing and dancing act. The
Three Juggling Millers close the bill
in an elaborate club manipulation act.
FOLLY.
A very attractive vaudeville bill is
on here this week. It includes the
San Tuccl Trio, Italian street sing-
ers with harp, violin and accordeon.
"The Yellow Scoop," a newspaper sa-
tire, without question is one of the
most novel playlets offered. It deals
with some of the state secrets in a
big newspaper office, showing to what
extremes the "yellow journals" will
go to get a "scoop." May Archer,
wearing her expensive gown, and Billy
Carr. two people who fully under-
stand the art of pleasing, will be seen
In their songs and chatter to best ad-
vantage. Yamamato brothers, Jap-
anese tight wire and perch actors, at-
tired in rich Oriental robes, are giv-
ing an act that cannot be excelled.
Herbert, the magician, is in a class
by himself when it .on.es to doing
things that seem Impossible right be-
fore his audience's eyes.
YOU ARE INVITED!
Mrs. Carter, of the Carter Corset
Shop, on Robinson street, announced
this week she had secured Mrs. Nylin-
Van Nest, recently with Mme. Whit-
ney, of Chicago, who conducts one of
the most fashionable dressmaking es-
tablishments in that city, to open
here. . . .
A cordial invitation is extended by
Mrs. Carter to all her customers to
come in and meet the newcomer.
Always Oroginal.
There ure two words In the English
language that, no matter how often
they are used, never lose their fresh-
ness, originality and charm. One is
•'sweetheart" and the other is "damn!"
—From "The Bramble Bush," by Caro-
line Fuller.
IRENE DANIEL, In
"COMMON LAW"
At The Overholser Saturday and Sunday Nights
"THE COMMON LAW" AT THE
OVERHOLSER.
Mr. Montgomery 14r Brewster takes
pleasure in offering the fifst time in
your city, the greatest story ever
dramatized, by Lem B. Parker, which
is "The Common Law." In this won-
derful play the author shows the love
of a woman to be so great that she
willingly would sell her virtue to save
from prison a brother, who has robbed
^ his employer, and also save from dis
grace the honored name of her dead
'lather.
Mr. Brewster promises the same
metropolitan production and cast as
seen in New York, and guarantees
this is the first time "The Common
Law" ha bseen west since its record
run in New York. At the Overholser
theatre, Friday and Saturday. Nov.
10th and 11th, with Saturday mat-
inee.
"THE SMART SET" AT THE OVER
HOLSER.
Fun that lingers, comedians and vo-
calists who do things and novelties
and surprises that leave one in abject
wonderment long after the curtain de-
scends is privoded in the latest three-
act musical comedy, "The Mayor of
New Town," which the noted "Smart
Set" company presents for the first
time this season at the Overholser
theatre, Sunday and Monday nights
and Sunday matinee. Salem Tutt
Whitney is the chief grouch destroyer
and to those who are not familiar
with his talents a capital entertain-
ment is assured. The production has
been mounted in sumptuous style and
the scenic equipment compares in
every respect with any offering seen
hereabouts in years. Forty people
comprise a well balanced cast. The
music and song hits, written especi-
ally for the comedy, are novel and
varied enough to suit the most exact-
ing lover of up-to-date amusement J.
Homer Tutt and Ethel Marshall, a
clever prima donna, are among Mr.
Whitney's chief assistants.
METROPOLITAN.
Miss Virginia North, about the dain
tiest bit of femininity that has ever
stepped before the footlights in Okla-
homa City, is (he particular bright |
start of "The American Girl," this j
week's offering of the North Brothers j
Stock company at the Metropolitan.
She is just 6 years old and a re- |
markably handsome little girl of the
Titian type. When she appeared for
the first time in the second act as a
paper girl, she was given an ovation
and a handsome bouquet of dainty
blossoms was passed across the foot-
lights.
"The American (!irl" proved to be
positively the very best comedy drama |
that has been put on at the Metro-1
politan this year, or any other year. |
It serves every member of the com- J
pany well and some of the richest I
clothes seen in a long time are worn
by the men as well as the women. J
i Miss Ruth Robinson's part gives her
new fields for acting and she accept-
ed every opportunity. Miss Rose Win-
chester was gorgeously gowned anil j
her acting as Lady Derwent was of j
the finished sort. Jack Roseleigh was
a tip top Col. Colder and Jack Roscoe
made a dashing artist lover and hits- [
band. Russell Snoad never played j
the villian's part to better advantage I
and the part of James, an English j
servant, as played by Charles Clarke,
was a hit of the show. Miss Belle;
Jackson was fine as Twister and later
as Saratoga, an actress and to F, C.!
North should go some of the laurels
of the evening, his Sir John Balfour
was nothing short of delightful. Spe
cial scenery is used for every act and
the opening scene, representing the
Catskill mountains, was sumptuous.
LYRIC.
Most of us like comedy when we
go to a vaudeville house. That's why
the bill at the Lyric goes so well.
Manager Ben Greenwood of the Lyric
hit the nail squarely on the head so
far as popularity is concerned when
he engaged this week's bill. Even
the matinee audiences are showing
