SEGSATIONAL ACT SAWING WOMAN IN HALF A1 STRAND 4 SAID TO BE MOST BEWILDERING ILLUSION NOVELTY SEEN ON THE STAGE A weird ami thrilling sensation, awaits the patrons uf the St rami | Theatre on Satimluy next. In full view of the audience, a beautiful Kirl will be sawn in two parts. Unquestionably one of the most spectacular ami mysterious feats of illusion ever performed before a public audience, it equals anything attempted by the Hindu Fakirs, whose skill has baiFlcd the closest scrutiny of science through the ages. The young lady appears on the | >tage, and members of the audience ! are allowed to converge with her and shake her by the hand. The same witnesses are allowed to examine the saw, and stand by while the astounding operation is performed. Various solutions are offered to, explain the phenomenon. Distinguished scientists have argued it is done by the power of hypotism, the Necromencer hynotizing the committee into believing they are seeing the deed performed. This explanation, however, explains nothing; rather it intensifies and deepens the mystery. The entire performance transcends the most weird achievements of Oriental oecultrv and have defied the solutions of! science- • In addition to this wonderful performance, the Strand Theater will have its usual series of pictures. The star feature on the silver sheet will be Tom Mix and hi?Wonder Horse, Tony, starring in ''Catch My Smoke," a film production which has never failed to draw, a large house. Mrs. Jules Ledig Entertains at Cards Mrs. Jules l.edig entertained a number of friends, at her home, 330 j Ocean Avenue, with cards. A meat; enjoyable time was spent by all. The guests included: Mrs. Wm. Kolb, Mrs. Wm. Focht. Mrs. J. J. Junes. Mrs. Harry Mills. Mrs. Earl K tamer, Mrs. Wm. Fitzgerald. Mrs. Howard Justice, Mrs. Walter. II.

LEGION GOSSIP! i I i By One of the Brass Blowers I I | ! | „ . I - Oh, boy! There certainly w:.- a • rumpus last Thursday evening, to 1 1 he extent that the good nature of» the members of the Progre siv? I vague was sorely tried. Asjargo number of the, F««rd! ' family^k-ere pressed into ervice., •and a n^tley. crew were seen di - imountinc from various Elizabeth.ju; Moorlyn Terrace and the Boardwalk. The odd and suspicious • - ; most of the men carried gave a I chance spectator the suspicion that la boat load of heavenly nectar had, jT«een run in on the bench. Doubiloss, the folk going to the 1 movies at the time came to their own conclusion concerning certain' well-known young men in the 'crowd, as they asscd into the ihu. ic i Pier. At interval.*-, seated and f. : . - -stricken faces appeared looking int » the windows of the pavilion, i drawn by terrifying, unearthly c.oiscs coming from within. The report has it that Chief I John sen was exceedingly worried at the time because it appears the jail was full, and consequently he had no more room for boarders. Folks, you have guessed it! It v. as the. Legion Band arriving and in practice at last, and will you believe it, running true to note most of the time. What the boys need now is a little support. They have been able ! to carry on themselves so far financially. If the city will lend them I ai little moral support, the band will h^cpine an asset to the city. Con Ford slid off the trombone and has settled down to the baritone. Rumor has it he has not been breathing regularly since. Hnriy^Dilib and Wallace are the . ♦rombonrf artists now. Gee! How i red they get in the face, and how they blow about it. Paris is some music reader, has evepy not© numbered. Merrick ♦hem, Budd Shidening has frozen •»n to his clarinet recently. It is siot ice, Budd; don't use ice tongs , instead of fingers. Merrick has ears like a detectegraph. He caught Trout and Oldfield changing the scales between breaths. Shining pretty dose we , call it. Bert. should learn to dis* • tinguish between music scales, and . fibh scales. » However, it was the major offense of the evening, but received
