The blaso and seasoned Vaudeville lovers who remember names will read with-pleasure the roster of the acts listed to appear at"
the Keith Theatre on Thursday next. They are acts that have played oil the high class theatres in Americu and it is unusual to Jind
them segregated on one bill. Gould and Russell, with their comedy patter, which closes with ir.usic will prove pleasuialle.
' Campbell and Burgess start at the beach with scant attire in patter and close in more demure habiliment to a happy finish. Tom
Branthford, internationally known as the "One-Mon-Bond" is a laughing delight. Mad Miller and Company will prove a most aston
ishing surprise in many wayn This is a metropolitan show brought to your door.
