It is a playlet, presented pre-sented by Martha Golden and company. The ready assurance and still readier excuses of the colored brother are amus-isgly amus-isgly portrayed in "The Thief and the Cop," one of the cleverest dialogues in vaudeville. They say it takes a really wise man to successfully act the fool without looking look-ing foolish. Judged on this basis, Blon-die Blon-die Robinson, who is one of the most entertaining en-tertaining single workers in vaudeville, is full of wisdom. His jigging, juggling, dancing and singing specialties are wound into an act which he calls "Just a Fool." Cecil and Bernlce, novelty specialists, billed as "The Girl Who Is and the Boy Who Isn't," are also on the bill. Miss Maude Fulton, Author of "The Brat," in Stellar Role at Salt Lake Tonight. QLD7ER MOROSCO'S latest New York yt comedy success, "The Brat," by Maude Fulton, will beg-in its engagement of three nights and a matinee Saturday with tonight's performance at the Salt Lake theater. An unusual feature of this attraction is the fact that Miss Fulton the author, also appears in the stellar role, that of a street waif, which she has written her story around. Miss Fulton Ful-ton is said to he a sheer delight In her performance of this bowery waif, whose showing experience has been gained as a pony" chorus girl at the New York Hippodrome, and gives her audiences many opportunities for laughter and a tear or two. She will be recalled as the one-time partner of William Rock of the famous dancing team of Rock and Fulton, Ful-ton, who were costarred In several big nV.KlcaA c?mei7 successes, principally The Candy Shop," and headlined every principal vaudeville theater in the country coun-try with their famous dancing act with great success. Before the fall of the curtain in the third and final act Miss I'ulton gives her audience an opportunity of seeing her dance once more, proving to them before they leave the theater the almost unbelievable fact, that of a little dancer becoming a playwright and writing a successful W York hit and creating the name role in her own pla" with such success that she has been hailed as one of the newest stars of the legitimate stage in America and one of our foremost native authors.

Marcha2l".3,Xth SUth a"d 5 58355 Eleven Uyenas in Thrilling Turn' at Pantages AMAZING dexterity is shown in the tumbling act presented by the Eleven Uyenas on Pantages new bill, which opened yesterday afternoon. Here you may see acrobatics elevated to a fine art. Perfect control of the mind over the body is manifest in every feat performed. The body is placed in positions po-sitions where a miscalculation would result re-sult disastrously and perhaps fatally. But the slip, the miscalculation, Is never made. Something is doing every minute, the whole moves like clockwork and the audience is left gasping with wonderment when the curtain falls upon fifteen minutes of genuine thrills. The act is dressed elaborately in curtains cur-tains and hangings and costumes of oriental ori-ental design and manufacture. The show is opened with an exhibition of basketball . played on wheels, which grows to be irksome after so many failures fail-ures to get the ball into the basket. The Harvey Trio are the perpetrators. Hope Vernon has a voice full of charm and melody and sings "I Hear You Calling Me" with telling effect. Her imitation of violin music is good. Risque badinage centering about burlesque bur-lesque shows in "Old New York" is pleasing entertainment offered by Silber and Duvall in their skit, "The City Visitor Vis-itor and the Rube." Lee Hop and company present the noisiest musical act ever heard in vaudeville. vaude-ville. But their noise is harmonious noise and gets over with a fair degree of success.( Lee Hop is an able camou-flager camou-flager of Chinese lingo, but his features and those of his assistants lack the appearance ap-pearance of the yellow man and betray their English origin, despite the fact that lights on the stage are turned low. James Thomas and company pick a quarrel with each other and excite mirth by daubing their persons with paint. Pantages Screen Weekly closes the performance. per-formance. Vivian Martin Appears at Paramount-Empress Paramount-Empress in Western Drama, 1 'Undamaged Goods." THE nomenclature of the great west always has been one of its most fascinating features.

Dainty Vivian Martin is simply Betsy Burke, but around her experiences when sent by express and . held as unclaimed goods is woven a romance and a thrilling story that cannot fail to entertain, amuse and delight all film patrons. Gardner Hunting wrote the scenario from a magazine mag-azine story by Johnstone McCulley. It will be shown at the Paramount-Empress for three days, commencing today. Madge Kennedy, William S.
