UNTHi lately it tvas generally understood un-derstood that the English peasant peas-ant had no folk songs, that he alone of all the races of Europe j had never learned to express himself in that sincere, intimate, moving fashion, j Recent researches have upset this opinion, opin-ion, researches to a great extent ear ried on. by tho Fuller sisters, who em fcloy the results of their study in theii folk-song recital. Bo great has been the number of pongs brought to light by these charming charm-ing and talented artists that they can no longer be presented as bingle numbers, num-bers, but must be classified and catalogued cat-alogued according to the nature of the song. Thus the Misses Fuller, "who will appear at the alt Lake theater Monday Mon-day and Tuesday nights, begin their programme with a ; ' Singers ' Apologia, Apol-ogia, ' 1 an in t ro due t o ry nu nib e r which they found was used by the sword dancers of Yorkshire.

For the rest they have a large number num-ber of child reus' singing games, and closely related to these, mothers' and nursery songs ; the occupational snugs of country work and play; songs of fortunate for-tunate love and its reverse; histories true and fabulous, under which head come the famous ballads; quiet, reflective reflec-tive song's of home aud country; songs of ffoodlellowshin. of fun aud fancy, of 'old. unhappy tar-off things, and battles bat-tles long ago;" fearsome supernatural legends, tragical stories of murders, executions and judgments of God; fairy tales, romances, religious and scriptural Pongs the list it? almost too long to relate. re-late. This is a rich field of endeavor, and the Fuller sisters have been industrious in its working. None are better fitted to set forth the real life of pact and gone generations, the true, inner life of their thought and fancy, than these three girls who give such a winning performance perform-ance of folk-song3. The Fuller sisters appear under the auspices of the following patrons and patronesses: Mr. and Mrs. Kobert C. Gemmell, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Siegel, ?J. and Mrs. Louis Cohn, Dr. and Mrs. T. B. Beattv, Mr. and Mrs. Sol biegel. Mr. and Mrs. T. VT. Bover, Mr. and Mrs. W. "VT. Riter, Mr. "and Mrs. W. Mont Ferrv, Mrs. Arthur H. S. Bird. !tfrs. Charles V Nibley. A GREAT musk-al act, The Bell Family, is one rtf the headliners of the show which starts this afternoon and appears throughout through-out the week at the Orphenm theater. From every viewpoint The Bell Family Fam-ily is a novelty. To begin with, the nine members are a bona fide family. "While families of this size are not uncommon, it is decidedly unusual that each one should develop an artistic tendency and become a talented musician. musi-cian. Th? Belt Family aro from Mexico, Mexi-co, and are probably the inly natives of that country predating a musical offering in vaudeville. The triple trio play skillfully on a number of musical instrument.?. Tt is, however, as bell-ringers bell-ringers that they triumph. Thev o not confine their musb; to instrumental pieces, but introduce several native song and occasional iy a nat i vo dance, which is not only d i fTeient, but more tban usually jiietn redone, aid int-T-sting.

Their j newest sketch is called "The Rube.'' and Mr. Barry will again be seen in the type with which he is so strongly identified. iden-tified. His countryman, however is not a bumpkin, but a" young, bright, clever and witty son of the soil. Mrs. Barry 'will play the role of an actress making mak-ing the tour of a rural circuit. Comedy is derived from the supposed superior knowledge of the actress, who is finally forced to acknowledge that she has been outwitted by the countryman. Mr. and Mrs. Barry are at their best in 'Thc Rube,' which fairly sparkles with bright lines and possesses an idea that is not only new, bu cleverly worked out.

The American orchestra has selections selec-tions this week of all kinds, especially selected to accompany each picture, as well as the overture programme from the great masters rendered daily. SHORTY HAMILTON, ihe popular cowboy comedian, goes to the city on a 'bust' in the latest of the two-reel Broncho comedy series, entitled ''Shorty's Adventures in the City.'' He has many thrilling and laughable experiences, is fleeced by an adventuress, shoots up the restaurant, fights a gang of toughs in defense of a pretty girl and finally gets mixed up in a well staged boxing contest with a professional. This entertaining en-tertaining comedy drama is shown at the Mehesv today only. "Sileuce,'' produced by Ihe Flying A conipanv, with F. I Cbxeu aud iunifred Greenwood Green-wood playing Fads, is a powerful drama exploiting the tragedy of heredity, endeavoring en-deavoring to prove the stem Biblical prophecy that "The idns of the fathers fath-ers shall be visited upon the children even unto the third and fourth generation." genera-tion."
