I Gois Edwards is noted for the de- 1 1 volopment of clover youngsters. The lads and lasses who made such a hit I in "School Days" now are in vaudo- 1 1 vllle for themselves and billed as scin- i i tiHating stellar lights. In the Kid Kab- ! i arot this clever producer introduces ; 31 twouty more clever j'ountfsters destined I'Stj 1 to be'beard from as singors, comedians j h , and dancers. The Kid Kabaret ib in f; manv respects ono of the most pre- S tentious offerings in vaudeville. It is j jj probably best described as a "lilting ;J load of luscious laughter." The com- j panj" of twenty Juvonilos with Eddie i SI Cantor and Georgia Jessel at their head i" fit i present amid appropriate settings a II . ' series of sours, dances and imporsona- ! tions- with dash and go that is infec- t S tious. The compan3' numbers a squad SI of comedians calculated to extract I S laughter from a chronic dyspeptic. "Listed second on tho new bill comes Ij ; Wallis Clnrk, who will be remembered ; for hia striking portrayal of that Dick- ! ens classic "Scrooge," here a couple Jjjf ! of seasons ago. Mr. Clark brings with I I ; lii in on his present tour a dramatic and ; spectacular playlet, "The Devil's ij Mate." which was written and invented by Stanley Cooke, and ran for a long jjj ; season at" the Coliseum, London. It it i deals with the story of a gambler who, I i having lost all, is about to commit sui- i . : cide when the Devil appears on tho 5 I scene and challenges him to a game l& of chess for his life. The challenge A I is accepted and the game procoeds, fj 8 every move being registered on an il- W s lumiuated board in a novel and strik- 1 1 nig manner. The act concludes with a remarkable electrical display. "Tho gjjj ' Devil's Mate" is said to bo ono of I I ill mo most intensely dramatic and tnnii-j tnnii-j ing acts that, has over beou offored on J the vaudeville stage. Fred IJainill and Charley Abbate pro- aentinc "Tho Singer and tho Violin-IH Violin-IH ist," have au act on tho new bill that ill is out of the beaten track. Each aca-III aca-III son these men place their talents HI against a now background. This year HI they arc presenting "Midnight Pals," HI an excuse for their ,pa"ing and Hing- ing. Mr. Ilninill enacts tho role of an HI inebriated clubinnn wending bin way home through a park with the assist-III assist-III ance of an Italian etroct urchin (Mr. Abbate). The individual who has been HI keeping company with Bacchus refuses HI to go any further. The two -it upon jl IJ a bench on which tho action of the skit transpires. HI A bird act of more than usual in-J in-J t crest is that presented by M. nnd Mme. "Bartholdi who. amid neat stage sct-III sct-III tings and electrical effects, put their luj flock of fifty trained parrots and tropin trop-in ical birds through a number of tricks. m Probably their most amazine trick is j Hint of riding a bicyclo.

They aro described as vaudeville's novel dancers and the description is said to be decidedly appropriate. Dorothv Harris during tho coming week will welcome old friends. This cute little singing comcdionno ono year ago started out from Salt Lake over the Orpheum circuit. Sho mado good from tho start and now is apparently a permanent fixturo in big time vaudeville. vaude-ville. She has a way of singing her songs and also has a very funny rag-timo rag-timo walk, both of which have established es-tablished her as a singing comcdionno. She sings thrco new songs and incidentally inci-dentally renders thorn in as man' stunning stun-ning costumes.

Announcement that this greatest of domestic dramas of the English-speaking stage find most popular noval of the century will be revived in photo-play at tho Salt Lake theater all this week, beginning with a matinee tomorrow at 2:30 o'clock, is certain to arouse widespread wide-spread interest. To the middle-aged, it will bring pleasant recollections of the halcyon days of youth, when "East Lynno" was tho favorito classic by which all ticpular emotional novels and dramas were measured and afford opportunity oppor-tunity to renew old and valued acquaintance acquain-tance under most favorable circumstances. circum-stances. To tho youth of tho land it presonts an unusual chance to becomo famil'inr with the favorito rdav of the preceding generation and. to gauge tho simple beauty and artistic worth of a work that swept tho world. Few reali.o that, next to the Bible, "East Lynne" has found translation in moro languages than any literary product. prod-uct. Even Parsee and liindustance aro included among the tongues employed to tell its romantic, pathetic story according ac-cording to no less an authority than the British Biographical Encyclopaedia. After many of the greatest actors of the last four decades and.

It is said th'at all tho money, intelligence, intelli-gence, artistry and a conscientious regard re-gard for tho atmosphere of the groat, book could contribute has been dovoted to making the photo revival of "East Lynne" au epoch-making development in amusement history. "Hitherto tho really great motion pfctnro productions have boon of a spectacular character the product of French and Italian masters mas-ters of tho craft. Tho preparation of "East Lynno" has been the first serious seri-ous attompt to ocnlarizo a truly great story depending upon projecting emotion emo-tion to the screen instead of mcro action ac-tion and spectacular incident. The latter lat-ter is meonanical nothing more whilo tho projection of thought and emotion involves art of the highest order. The Denver papers contain flattering reviews of the "East Lynne" picturos. Tickets are now on sale at tho theater box office. THE Utnh theater stock company presents this week, beginning tonight, another play that is sure to please patrons of the house. '"An Enemy to the King" is tho title of the drama selected b3' Willard Mack for tho third week of his winter engagement at the Utah, and thcro is no doubt that it will prove successful, as it is ono of tho most thrilling stories over told and its production pro-duction under tho personal direction of Mr. Mack insures a performance woll worth seeing.
