| Bijou theaters in Nev York all suni

Startling in their realism, the pictures
hold the attention of the audience con
tinuously, for the scenes ate unique.
Wild beasts in their native haunts were
caught by the camera man, drinking at
the water-hole—here a long-necked gi
raffe. there a ponderous rhinoceros,
with zebras galloping in among the
•strange group, ami later a little fam
ily of elephants sticking their trunks
into the cooling pool.
A snarling hyena caught in a trap,
will make you fee! glad that you are

picting to the end, when each dog takes
I a final snap al his prey.
I The shooting of the big t'.tino ami ’

traction, and in many respects it com
prises ail tile original players that par
ticipated in last season's presentation

BILL OF FEATURES 18
OFFERING AT THE GRAND
■Just when vaudeville ever offered
(such a promising entertainment as is
suggested by the bill that will be the
attraction at the Gland for next week
would be hard to recall. Some of the
most distinguished features and head
liners the profewsioif affords have been
r mted to appear at the Grand, and for
many weeks to come the headliner- arc
of exceptional magnetism and real qual
ity.
Next week's bill is a forerunner of
the great things that are to happen.
The program consists of features and
stars and headliners that are known by
reputation and some by personal visits
to Atlanta.
One of the stars of the bill will be
Bert Leslie, supported by his personally
selected company. Mr. Leslie, a former
newspaper man, now one of the best
known .and highest salaried vaudeville
artist - in the land. Is known as "The
King of Slung.' lb- hay coined more
slang expressions than any one alive.
About two-thirds of the every-day ex
pressions used by all the people as a
short cut around a long command or a
' 'urtailment of good English came from
the brilliant mind of this entertaln«i.
Air. Leslie lia« been offering a series of
Hogan" sketc lies, but becau-e of the!
gteat demand for Ids services in the I
vaudeville theater*, it ha not been i
I possible until tliis time to engage him !
| f<>. appearance in Atlant*, but he Is to i
be here and will make up 10l at. lost
time.
Another atar will be beuutifu. L. uva
Guerite. a Broadway favorite, who has
been identified with a great man;, mu- |
steal comedy successes. Miss Guerite
has an exclusive vaudeville specialty,
in which she will be assisted by Arthur
Conrad, who is a most versatile young
man.
Os course Atlanta knows Bert Fitz
gibbon! More than 18.000 people were I
attracted to the theater when ho ap- 1
peared in this city last. The songs lie
song, the jokes he told, the cutups lie
registered and the fun he had with the
musical director, and all that sort of
thing won for the ‘‘daftydil" a position ,
111 Atlanta thttt will hardly be pulled I
down.
Six pretty, prancing show girls, who.
| have been hic-r. Ilflc <i with th. Monlgoin- '
ery X- Stone show.-, with L«-w Fields’ ■
i companies, and with other musical sm’- j
j cesses, ami who are the original Pony j
| Ballet, wil' be another featuie end will
j have something to do with the attend- j
alive.
Redford and Winchester, who do the,
funniest burlesque juggling act that I
was ever conceived, have just returnee! I
from a 27,000-inile torn of th. world.!
and they are going to manufacture
laughter while the audiemes v .-ill. This !
is the best act of its sort end the bit i
it scored at the Orpheum some years I
ago has not been forgotten.
Armstrong and Manley, clever come- i
diuns, and Ben Beyer and Brother, in a
comedy bicycle offering, make up the
program.
‘•THE GIRL IN THE TAXI" IS
BOOKED FOR THE LYRIC.
"The Girl in the Taxi," the greatest
’aughlng sir cess of the century, comes
to the Lyric next week.
The story of “The Girl in the Taxi"
la as laughable as it Is Interesting. Its
plot full to overflowing with situations
and complications which move with the
rapidity of a racing car on high speed,
fatughter is the keynote and the peals
of merriment evoked from curtain to
curtain follow each other like dis
charges from a Gatling gun. The cli
maxes are hilarious and ide-splitting
in their unexpectedness and originality.
There is the father, a rich and respect,
ed bank.-r who is all that he should be
while In the home circle, surrounded by
his wife and by his son, B -rtie.
There is the nephew from Philadel
phia who < omei< to New York twice a
to have his throat treated by an
i eminent New York specialist.
A friend of the family who Is always!
limning up at the wrong moment con
| tributes hi* share to complicate mat-
I ter A Frem h maid, who gives Bertie
I tile li si lessons in ove making • also
an important factor in the mix-ups
which crowd the piece from start to
finish.
Add to these a perfume manufactur
er from New Jersey witli a wife who
chooses rather to remain in New' York
and keep an appointment with Bertie
instead of going back to Red Bank, her
home, and the embarrassments which
follow can better be imagined than de
scribed.
The musical specialties introduced
throughout "The Girl in The Taxi"
with songs and dances, contrast pleas
antly with the rapid-fire situations and
afford breathing spells in the merry
making.
"THE WINNING WIDOW” IS
COMING TO LYRIC SOON.
"The Winning Widow,” which will
appear at the Lyric commencing Mon
day, November 11, is a splendid musical
comedy entitled “At Home and Abroad,”
and is in two acts. There are seven
principals who furnish the fun. songs
and specialties, and they are backed up
by a beautiful chorus handsomely
gowned.
EMMA BUNTING TO APPEAR
IN “LEAH KLESHNA” NEXT
The Question now is whether or not
the Forsyth is going to be large enough
to accommodate the crowds that are
following Little Emma Bunting and her
splendid supporting Of
course. Miss Bunting's strong personal
popularity has been half the battle.
The plays already presented have
met with hearty approval. The man
agement has selected bills that are sure
to please because each of them will
permit the daintj leading lady to playa
pa t that is away from the routine she
has followed here before. In the plays
already offered she has astonished her
best friends with her wonderful versa
tility and that she will have a success
ful season is a conclusion reached by
all who keep in touch with such things.
For the w’eek that starts on Monday
—and that includes matinee perform
ances on Tuesday, Thursday wnd Sat
urday afternoons—“ Leah Kleshna,” one
of the standard plays of modern times,
will be the bill. The play has been
personally selected by Miss Bunting. It
is going to give her an opportunity to
appear in an altogether different char-
