Show I THE CITIZEN With the First Nigh ters SUPER BILL PRESENTED AT PANTAGES THIS WEEK A good bill of vaudeville and pic- tures is drawing the usual large crowds at the Pantages theatre this week. Opera singing, graceful dancing and unusual comedy mark the features, interpolated with excellent music. The Venetian Masqueraders provide the efature in vaudeville, which is presented with artistic exactness. The stage scenery, a birdseye view of a portion of Venice is very attractive. Splendid voices in solo and chorus, together with a rtistic dancing by a pretty and graceful girl, in which Olga Bohm and Iiuth Fifer lead, is very pleasing. Some excellent music gives tone to the act. The costuming is of the very best. James Mullen and Anna Francis in My Hero provide the best comedy act seen here for a long time, and they make a big hit. They tell more jokes and stories in less time than the average, and all is original with them. Mullen "rolls with laughter and his comic capers about the stage keep the audience in continual laughter. There is also a comedy war scene. Chisholm and Breen present a playlet of their honeymoon in the frozen north, which borders on tragedy and hysteria enacted in a snowbound cabin in the frozen wilds, a place the young wife thought they could best spend their honeymoon. The cabin turns out to be a haunted house, with chairs rocking, secret rappings and opening doors, all of which nearly turn che mind of the young bride.
