Judging from the reception acoordad
"Dr. Tinkle Tinker" at the Brandels last
night, many grownup children were in
the audience, who easily recalled those
poignant moments of childhood, when the
services of the eminent practitioner
would have been the only avail. The
song Is charmingly rendered by Miss
Mclntyre, and is worthy the splendid re
ception it received. "The Olrl of My
Dreams" comes back unchanged In spirit
but somewhat improved In action as a
result of the experience of a year, part
of which time was spest "on Broadway."
It la a tribute to those who control the
destiny of the piece that Its flavor was
not marred by any effort to Inject
"piquancy" in order that the Broadway
taste might be gratified. It is dainty, and
it is clean, and It affords excellent enter
tainment.
Miss Mclntyre is ths leader of the com
paay, even If John Hyams does have
most of the time In the spotlight Ehs
does what she has to do so very well
that one is pardoned the wish that her
share of the program were longer. She
gives us a Quaker lass who is demure and
decorous, and, without resorting to ordl
nary expedients, get much enjoyable
comedy out of the role.
Mr. Hyams Is a quiet comedian, clever
and resourceful, possessing a lyiie tenor
voice of uncommonly sweet tone, which
he uses with good taste. Perclval Aylmer
la doing the love-sick poet well, Harold
Forbes sings and dances with spirit and
Messrs. Blcclardl and Brooke contribute
two very good dialect comedy roles. Ray
L. Rayce has been so long noted for his
"old men" that It Is enough to say he
Is up to his own standard. Miss Bowman
Is an energetic little soubrette, who works
her role for all it contains .while Miss
Lee and Miss Hills are there and over
In the female comedy parts. And the
chorus is a delight In every way.
The familiar numbers of the piece were
all given glad welcome by an audience
that outnumbered any that saw the piece
during Its engagement here last season.
and encores were lavlshlngly given. The
, company stays at ths Brandels until after
Wednesday, with a matinee on Wednes
day afternoon.
Chinese servant for Beresford. Robert
Preston does some excellent Juvenile act
ing, taking Clem from a weak and fool
ish boy, dissatisfied with his condition,
to the manly fellow who Is the rock of
refuge for his sister In the darkest
hours. Miss Blanche Moulton as Mag
gie, the old Irish servant, wins the house
wtth what is probably her best piece of
character acting this season.
Vaudeville at the Orphean.

the characters that has held the keen
Interest of everyone who has read Charles
Dickens' works, Is portrayed in a master
ful manner this week at the Orpheum
theater. The playlett, titled after this
famous character. Is an adaptation by
Tom Terries of "A Christmas Carol," and
it is one of the most beautiful and in
tensely interesting offerings ever pre
sented at the Orpheum. The character
of old Scrooge, the crusty, crabbed Indi
vidual, who la brought to see the more
beautiful aide of life In his declining
years. Is portrayed by Wallls Clark in
manner that commands the finer feel-
Inge of every member of the audience.
Tiny Tim. Little Fanny. Bob Crachltt
and Mr. FezawleT' are all represented In
the cast, each contributing full measure
of delightful realism.
Horace Wright and Rene Dietrich are
on the bill with a repertoire of songs.
Including their own compositions, one of
which is "Everybody Acts Like Us When
They're In Love." Their love making
while singing this song makes an Instan
taneous hit Jean Bedlni and Roy Arthur.

line of nonsense In monologue. Abbott

bers that are excellently presented and
take well with the audience. Mersellles.
a novelty gymnast, appears In an enter
taining act entitled "A Pussle In Black
and White." He Is good. The entire
show from the opening act to the last
foot of moving picture film is refined.
"The Three of te" at the America;
At the American Sunday afternoon th
Woodward Ptock company opened
week's run with "The Three of Us," by
Rachel Crothers. The play concerns the
fortunes of Rhy McChesney, her father1
daughter and her two brothers, Clem
and Sonnle. Their parents died and left
thera in a Nevada mining town, thel
heritage being a few dollars, a shack
of a home, a claim that was worthless
and a hope that some time It would
yield "pay ore." Stephen Townley and
Louis Beresford are the rivals for Rhy1
hand and heart. Beresford being the
loser, 1. a., the villain, in attempting to
carry out his schemes Beresford with
money tempts Rhy's brother, Clem, to
sell him valuable information. He i

course. It cannot end like this. Townlty
learns all and the curtain descends with
him and Rhy in each other's arms.
Miss Eva Lang plays Rhy with
easy and simple naturalness that indl
cates she is at home In the role. Harry
Burkhardt as Townley and Corwln Luak

Miss Lang flashes real fire when she

Borlesqae at the Gayety.
Charlie Howard came back to Omaha
yesterday with his Jersey Lilies, a clean,
bright show that ran Into Immediate
favor at the Oayety. Charles Howard.
let it be said, is a small comedian In
stature, but a big fellow when It cornea
to burlesque acting. He made a hit In
A Complicated Affair," and in "Win
ning a Miss," the two acts that make up
the performance. He prances about, doing
funny things and speaking funny lines
to such an extent that he draws a laugh
from the most reserved of his audience.
Then there was James E. Cooper, that
big fellow who always wears a grouch,
and who Is funny simply because he Is
grouchy. He was on deck with a new
line of talk and with some very grouchy
airs. As a mall carrier la the olio he
elicited a generous share oi applause.
Lucia Cooper and Fannie St. Clair per
formed gracefully and skillfully in the
leading feminine roles. William Alexis,
playing with Miss Schall in a contortion
ist act, actually curled himself up into
such a position that he sat upon his own
head. He Is about as nimble and plastic
as a human can be. A male quartet
singing In ths second act, was one of the
many treats of the credltsble perform
ance. Their only fault seemed to be that
they would not give the audience enough
of their singing.
Barleeaae at the Kraft.
Pat White, famous as one of the lead
lng comedians in burlesque, came to the
Krug yesterday with a prancing crowd
of chorus girls and an able crew of lead
ing lights. He made a fast get-away at
two performances, spreading humor every
minute he was on ths stage. His bevy
of choiTlsters aided wonderfully In mak
ing the show good Cna. They are easy
to look upon and do some very creditable
dancing, alnglng. at the same time, bet
ter thaa many burlesquera.
Marie Fisher and Annie Grant were
chief holders of the feminine roles. Each is
shapely and earn poasossea a goodly share
of beauty of face. They sang wall. Soma
young fellow, whose name did not appear
on the program, drew down a tremendous
spplause through his efforts, aa an In
toxlcated gentleman of pleasure, to mount
ths stairs of a fashionable club room. He
waa excellent In this part. Two acts.
with some good vaudeville sprinkled In
between the regular numbers make up
the hill. One of the sessions dealt with
"Casey's Celebration" over his acquisition
cf a saloon. The second showed ths same
Casey In a swell club house.
During the championship bass ball
series, special reports of the contests will
be announced from the stage of the Krug
