Scene from "A Night With the Poets," which will appear at t'-a Grand Opera Houce week of October I8t'n.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD tk'-'atn" The "neighborhood theatre" 1ms become an institution. Perhaps this Ijjict j never before occurred to you, for we ' J seldom give much thought to existing j 1 conditions, and, as the old slogan runs, I ) "we never miss the water till the well j " runs dry." But let us take, for exam- 1 1 pie, Nixon's Grand itself: it is worthy i v of a terse analysis. In the first place!1 we try — and we hope to succeed — in eon- j 1 ducting it precisely aH a public institu- ! tion should be conducted, which means ' ' that the public's comfort is the pre- 1 ' dominating factor in our curriculum. ! 1 We believe that we do not fall short ' in striking for this goal. Sufficient cour- ! 1 teous attendants to care for our pat- ' ' rons' needs, comfortable seats, splendiu ! ' ventilation, the better kind of music ' and a pervading air of friendliness and I welcome are a few of the essentials which stand out in bold relief. As for its being a distinctive playhouse, we ; may turn to the multiplication table : for proof. The capacity is about 3200 , ' seats; three daily performances are ' given, and there arc six playing days in the week. Is there not something of: awe in the realization of the ifact that ; you have nearby a theatre capable of housing 57,000 amusement seekers in a brief week? If you are one of our "regulars" you will accept our assertion that the house is always crowded during the evening performances and more than comfortably filled during the matinees —and nine-tenths of this vast patronage comes from this particular section. As , for the vaudeville, it is unquestionably i of the highest culture, not estimated on the scale of admissions charged, but: rather on the basis of acknowledged ! merit. It is clean, wholesome, enter- j taining and instructive, bearing out our j belief, in a word, that the stage is a powerful factor of social uplift; it is the sort of entertainment that is quite "proper" for the little folks and that means a great deal. Nowadays every neighborhood has its , vaudeville theatre and every neighbor- 1 liood should be justly proud of the ac- 1 quisition. That is the point we desire to make clear: swear allegiance to the' "neighborhood theatre," for it should be I as much a part of your routine life as. your butcher, your baker or your candlestick maker. Remember this: Nixon's Grand is paramountly YOUR theatre; j be friendly with it. visit it, use it, laugh i with it, let it amuse you when things are a bit blue— and learn to think as much of it as you would of an old tried | and true acquaintance, for that sort of 1 an acquaintance is well worth having. I The above interesting write-up appears in the Grand Opera House pro-1 glFor the week beginning October 18th, an exceptionally attractive bill has been . assembled, comprising some of the best | vaudeville acts of the 15. b. Keith popular vaudeville circuit. A B!G SHOW AT THE CASINO Jecn Seciini's "Puss Puss" Company. The attraction at the Casino Theatre, week of October ISth, will be Jean Reilini's "Puss Puss." This is a new | organization, produced under the personal direction anil supervision of .lean i Bedini. He has made rapid strides the oast three seasons toward a high place in burlesque circles. He has set such i lii 'li standard that other burlesque shows are finding it hard to follow. All I the supporting company are of his eali1 her. and they can l.r depended upon 1 to give an unusually meritorious per- 1 formance. j The chorus is young, shapely and ' | hand, ime: selected from among a great many because of their ability to siuc 1 and "dance. Tbe musical numbers they execute are riots, which often stop the I show until the second of third encore ! has been given. A none the supporting artists win h servo special mention engaged to sup- ' ort .Tenn Bedini are Helen Lorraine. , a gentle: May Holden and Pom Lawrence, soubrettes: Ella Gardner, char-e-tor comedienne: Ben Grinnel. eceeDric comedian; Davis and Stafford. . aokfaee and character comedians, and I hers equally as well known for then 1 "Cents as entertainers. Novelties in st "ling' are many. Tights. _ soenery -nd electrical effects in amazing prof- sion are also important features that I I have hcen provided to make "Puss Puss" one of the bos; seen this season ' en the hnrelsqne circuit. dumontT" I A change of burlesque and new songs are announced by the Minstrels for this week. "Laib- Barbers and Lady Manicurists" will be offered, with Boyden and Gibson in amusing characters. Gibson and Ma lone have a new sketch. I while Friscli and Sheldon will offer a new vocal scene. Morello, with his , mandolin selections: Bonnie Franklin, in | now songs and chatter, and Eddie CasI sady. who always has a lot of breezy , .nonsense, will all add In the joyi usness I 1 of the entertainment.

B. F. KEITH'S THEATRE One of the best sketches that has ever | been produced on the vaudeville stage will headline the bill at B. F. Keith s Theatre during the week of October IS. j when William Courtleigh will revive ( George V. Hobart's one-act comedy ^ playlet, called "Benches." originally* s written for the Lambs' Club, and later ' produced with tremendous success in "v vaudeville. An original novelty that has already won its place as a standard act (| is "A Vaudeville Cocktail," mixed b;. f| Aaron Hoffman and served by Henry | Lewis. The latest -.lancing hit in vaude- s ville is that of George East and Com- ', in original ami cycling dance | creations, featuring "The Dance of the ( Carnival" and "The Futurist Whirl." t George McKay and 'Ott'e Ardine will | present a new singing and talking skit ^ which they call "On Broadway." Re- ( turning to this city after a long ab- ; sence, Violet Dale, an American mimic and impersonator, will add a bright spot ' to the bill with her impressions of stage favorites. Miss Dale's ability as an ( artist may be judged from the fact tlia: , her impersonations include almost every | class of artist on the stage, from the . emotional Nazimova to the grimacing , Eddie Fov. No prettier or more artistic j musical offering has been produced than The Seven Colonial Belles, a. company , of vtomen musicians in a decidedly nov- - el and beautifully staged production > called "1776 De Luxe." There is a ' sextette of instrumentalists and a solo- ( ist, and their program in the greater part is confined to high-class selections. : The Morin Sisters, who have been a 1 dancing feature of several good musical comedies, and are entitled to vaudeville , ■ recognition, will be seen for the first time here in a variety of dances. A mixture of songs, dances and comedy, presented in nn attractive way, with, numerous costume changes, is the contribution of Billy Lloyd and George F. Rritt, who make no other claim than to hold up their part of the bill in entertaining fashion. The Schmettnns are a duo of European artists with a pictur- ' esque and attractive eqnilibristic novelty. The Hearst-Selig Pictorial News . will, as usual, contribute several minutes of interest and entertainment with the latest collection of incidents cap- , "ired by the camera man. GAYETY THEATRE The bes'; chew in Philadelphia thii week is j "THE CRACKERJACKS" ■ Musical comedy of a superlative merit 1 will be personified by "The Cracker- | jacks," a talented aggregation of forty I stars of burlesque, at the Gayety Theatre. Philadelphia, week beginning Monday matinee, October ISth. It is seldom that such a magnificent production has been brought to the attention of local seekers of wholesome amusement, in the farce in two acts "Around Town." which deals with two married men who strive to get rid o: their wives for a time so as to enable them to have a good time. Phil Ott. who plays the leading role, lias ample opportunity to display many laughs to the audience as situations arise which | are seldom seen in any burlesque show, i Supporting Mr. Oit is a company of the pick of the vaudeville's best talent, in eluding May Leavitt. Nettie Nelson. Billy Armstrong. May La Compte. Fr-d Taylor.

Full of vim. dash - 1 snap, from the vise of the curtain !• ii the finale in the last act. At every perform a inc. Anita, the ravI isliim* Turkish beauty, will appear in an "x iositir.ii of the graceful dances of the Incut wit-, which she captivated the ! heart of the Sultan of one of the prilljeijal T'rkisli principalities, and on | Wodnes-hiy and Friday nights, in adrtii tion to the regular amateur tournaments which have made the Gayetv si pop- ! ular among the fight fane, there will I be a number of "Special Bouts" bo- | tween well matched boys.

walnut street THEATRE The Psr.n Players in the "Man From Home." The newly-organized 'Company, the i'enu Players, will be seen in William [i edge's most brilliant success, "The Man From Home," at the Walnut ■itreet Theatre. Philadelphia's historic ind best known theatre, this coming week, 'the week of October 18th. This is a play which was one of the liiggest hits in recent years and which had so successful a run with Mr. Hodge. tells the story of a big man in a small town: how his ward goes to Europe and becomes entangled with a nobleman, and how her guardian folher and takes her future into his own keeping. The role of Daniel Vorbees Pike is one of the most lovable written; its humor is quaint; its conception original and the deep hidden goodness and sincerity make this character one of the greatest ever presented upon the stage. In this production by the I'enn Playat the Walnut next week Mr. Carl Stowe will bo seen in the role created Mr. Hodge, and Miss Irene Oshier, who just closed a season with the Davis Stock Company, of Pittsburg:;, will be the leading woman. Mr. Edward Everett Horton, Jr., who is a great favorite with theatre-goers here, will have the principal male role in support. The company will also include Leon Kelly, Maude Blair, Hugh Harper. Hal Oliver, Marion Baird and Cecil Lurgrin. Seenicnlly the production will equnl that of the original offering. This is the aim of the management of the Penn Player*. The prices will be the same, making it possible for everyone to be a patron of the Walnut Street Theatre. There will be a matinee every aft< rnoon but Monday. tr0cader0 THEATRE The Theatre Where You See All the Gest Bi:rlcsc;ue Showe. ■'The best yet," is what you'll say after you have seen the classy dancer who has been engaged to appear with the Monte Carlo Girls at the Trocadero Theatre. Tenth and Arch streets, week of October 18. This classic dancer is Kyra, who has been pronounced the greatest terpsicliorean artist before the public today. She has visited, studied and danceo to nearly every country in the world since she started her dance career, which was when she was about the age when children begin to walk. She will give this city one of the greatest dance novelties ever seen, which will be a raiv

treat to nil dance lovers. The Monte Carlo Girls are the snappiest, breeziest show of the season, and a rare treat is in store for all lovers of real burlesque. This organization is new this season, and has a brand-new equipment, has the reputation of being tue liveliest organization on the road. The young women of the chorus of twenty are not only pretty and youthful, but they are clever singers and dancers who have been drilled to perfection in their branch of work so that they work' with enthusiasm and abandon. The comedy end of the show will be a big feature, for the management has secured that clever little comedian, Harry Welsh, the funny little Hebrew, with the funny slide. Mr. Welsh is the equal of any of the laughmakers and he lias been given a free scope. He will le assisted by Dolly Morrissey, one of the cutest and daintiest of singing and dancing soubrettes; Mabel White, a handsome and statuesque leading woman; Fred Binder, a funny German lauglimaker; James X. Francis. a clever "straight"' man; James Gillespie, Margaret Marlow and others. The two musical travesties staged are tbe nonsensical trifles. "Izzie, the Sleuth" and "Izzie at Monte Carlo," both built for laughter.

METROPOLITAN The second week of the season at this palatial playhouse, under the management of the Messrs. Shubert, will begin tomorrow afternoon with a complete change of program, but the entertainment will be of the same unusual and interesting variety. The feature photoplay will be what is said to be a remarkable film version' of "The Blindness of Virtue," a morality drama which created widespread attention on two continents. The light opera feature will be a condensed version of "The Chimes of Normandy," presented by a company of fifty capable singers in costume. Grand opera will lie adequately represented in novel selections from "CavaDieria Rusticanu," the Anvil Chorus from "II Trovatore," and the sextet number from "Lucia." Arthur Aldridge. a famous light opera tenor, will be heard in new vocal solos, and inasmuch as he is widely popular in Philadelphia, it is certain a hearty welcome awaits him. The patriotic spectacle with which the program concludes will be n stirring novelty, entitled "Liberty," described as an allegorical living picture. Patriotic airs played by a symphony orchestra of forty will add to the attractiveness of this tabloid. As nn added attraction, Mile. Amato and Auerlio Coceio, in the "Apple of Paris," will surely cause a sensation. It is a wordless drama of French life, introducing "The Dance of the Rose." genial treasurer of Dumont's Minstrels, received word a few weeks ago which almost took his breath. An attorney informed him that an old uncle living on the outskirts of Camden had left him the munificent sum of $25,000. Here's a chance for some fortunate girl. Mr. Evans can always be seen at the box office of .Dumont's, matinee and evening.

OPERA HOUSE The new program which the Triangle Film Corporation- will present this week, will consist of four stars in as many different photoplays. These stars will be Eddie Foy, Raymond Hitchcock, I-" rank Kcenan and Dorothy Gish. Foy will be seen in a Mack Sennett Keystone comedy, entitled "A Favorite Fool." dealing with circus life. He will be assisted by his seven children. The Griffith contribution to the week's bill wil be a film adaptation of the wellknown pla- "Old Heidelberg," in which Richard Mansfield starred. Wallace Reid will be seen in the Mansfield part, Prince Karl, while Dorothy Gish will essay the innkeeper's daughter. It is staged in Mr. Gri—th'B usual spectacular style. Hitchcock will be seen in another Mack Sennett farce entitled "Stolen Magic," in which he will beassisted again by Mr. Sennett himself and Mabel Normand, who contributed in no small way in making the first week a success at the Opera House. The piece de resistance of the evening and the closing number of tile bill wil be Thomas H. Ince's intense emotional drama in five parts, entitled "The Coward," starring Mr. Keenan. The story is that of a Mexican war veteran, who at the outset of the Civil War is so disgusted by the cowardly actions of his son that the old man himself enlists as a private. The boy, who deserted the colors, at last achieves a valiant deed, but, riding in the enemy's uniform, is shot down from his horse by his own father. This leads to a thrilling denouement, giving extraordinary opportunities to Frank Keenan in the role of the parent. Charles Ray as the youth, Gertrude Claire as his mother, and Margaret Gibson as his sweetheart, are the other principals. All the four offerings will be accompanied by special music, a large orchestra of experts being employed.
