Tally's Broadway. Edward Abeles, who starred the Broadway New York production of "Brewster's Millions" and played the part of "Monte" Brewster more than 1800 times, is again portraying this now famous character In the photoplay production of tho famous comedy drama being shown in five acts at Tally's Broadway Theater this week. Many of the best scenes n'nd much of the comedy of tho well-known story were left out in the stage production, but In motion pictures nothing has been ovrlooked and the crowds at Tally's this week are enjoying one of the best laughs of their Uvea.

This chapter, which by the way, is only shown at this house, is Jammed full of exciting and thrilling adventures and is by far the most sensational episode yet recorded in the lives of the enchanting heroine and her equally fascinating lover. The balance of the programme Is unusually strong, including, as it does, an unusually funny comedy drama In two parts, entitled "Kiss Me Goodnight" featuring Arthur Johnson and Lottie Briscoe.

Evidently Frank and Pauline like muslo well enough to render it particularly well. All in all, this is the brightest and best bill the Empress has glvun us for many a day. nippodronio.

More than living up to its advance heralding, the new bill at the Hippodrome, with its two big sketches, and its tabloid musical comedy, proves one of the best bills offered by the Main-street playhouse thus far this year. Broderlck O'Farrell snd Jane O'Roark, in their playlet, "Tho achieve an extraordinary success, their offering proving as dramatic as It is gripping. The seduction scene gives "our Jane," for she Is a Los Angeles girl, unexcelled opportunity to show her worth, and to say that she makes the most 6f it is scant praise Indeed. Then, too, there Is Walter Montague's sketch, "The Convict and the Warden," which, if the verdict of the first-nighters can be taken as a criterion, is the best of all the Montague offerings. It gives Herbert Sears, as the convict, a rare chance to show his worth.

And some like "The Woman In Red" best, with its pretty girls, fascinating costumes and catchy music, to say nothing of Its abundance of laugtis. Marjory Shaw Is disclosed in one of the best singing roles of the Bothwell Browne Company's engagement. Dancing Collins is a terpslchorean surprise, and the De Franks also contribute a dancing novelty that takes immensely, and, for good measure, Hamilton wrings many a laugh with his unique Chinese Impersonations. In fact, from start to finish, this week's Hippodrome bill is one that is decidedly Interesting and out of the ordinary. Mason.

Clunes's Broadway. Alice Joyce, famous morion picture star, plays the lead In "Nina of the Theater," which found a great vogue' with the audience at Clune'a Broadway yesterday. This picture is well produced and has a number of thrills and heart Interest is the very warp and woof of the story. You will love Alice Joyce and in loving her will find yourself really loving "Nina of the Theater," the girl who makes a sacrifice in an effort to save her lover's life: who is in a perilous position Imprisoned with a maniac and you will be glad in a primitive way that the scoundrel who caused the charming heroine's troubles, meets his fate. There are many other thrills and some sorrow which is quickly dispelled by the original comedy of the plot There are other comedies, too, and on the whole the show Is one of the best the Brpadway has had in weeks.

Woodley Theater. "The Lily of the Valley," a graphlo, gripping story of a struggle between capital and labor, in which love and revenge are deftly mingled, and which was staged right here In Los Angeles, is one of the big features of the bill at the Woodliy Theater this week. The name belles the story, for there is little that Is drooping or lilylike about it the tragedies and the romances that It contains making a complex plot that keeps one on edge until the final foot of film has been run. Any doubt that melodrama, whether It be in the legit or in the movies, is not the most popular theme of the day, was dispelled when The $4,000,000 Dowry" was thrown on the screen. It Is one of thoRe fascinating French stories In, which tense situations "tumble over one another and rlimax follows climax with bewildering conviction.

"Holdovers" are growing beautifully less at the Orpheum from week to week, and the time is not far distant mayhap, when they will be no more a consummation most devoutly wished for by every regular attendant under that artistically decorated ceiling.

That thrifty custom has now become more honored in the breach than the observance.

This week only one number has been held ovor, and this, Leon Kimberly's and Halsey Mohr's "Clubland," Is so musically bright that It can be heard at least twice with pleasure. If the Orpheum boasts a headllner this week, it refrains from bragging too loud about it. though perhapk Odiva (pronounced O-dle-va might honestly claim that honor Odlva and her shining bunch of pet seals. Odlva comes from Samoa, and the seals are also trained products of the Pacific Ocean. They disport themselves in a huge tank that shimmefrs like an emerald.

The maid from Samoa Is a graceful and expert swimmer and diver to whom aqua pura seems to be as native an element as it is to the seals. The act is a very attractive one. The seals show Intelligence that is not far from human, with a docility that Is decidedly unhuman. Irvin Cobb's well-known short story, "Sergeant Bagby," has been reshaped into dramatic form by Bozeman Bulger, with the assistance of Cobb himself. The humor of the thing the story, not the work of dramatization makes an acceptable comedy with broadly farcical tendencies.

The meeting of a number of old soldiers, Blue and Gray, on Confederate Reunion Day in New Orleans, certainly suggests another war, If not of swords at least of words, and several hot scrimmages do occur. But there is no actual bloodshed, and, as tho negro servant "if there had been enough drinks to go round in '63, there never would have been any war." George Neville plays Bagby. the Irascible, very delightfully, and Nell Burton's fire-eating Southerner, Tobe Ezell, is equally entertaining, Another good part is that of Ezra Bloomfield, a Northerner, by Lawrence Eddinger. Alleen Stanley, a girl of statuesque beauty In face and figure, and wearing exquisite gowns, sings ragtime acceptably, in spite of her distinction and style. fVVe'd like to see and hear her In something big and serious, though something befitting her estate as a Greek goddess Just come down from Olympus.

Everybody loves a melodrama therefore everybody who goes to the Empress Theater this week ought to be supremely happy, because "Salvation Sue," a corking specimen of its kind, is being given there in fine style. The salvation business in plays has been done to a frazzle, of course, by playwrights, big and playwrights little, and by any number of mere play-smiths, but that makes no difference. "Salvation Sue" is a rattling good melodrama, a sort of "Girl of the Golden West" In miniature, the scene being a bar-room in Dawson, Alaska. There's genuine Klondyke atmosphere in it with a gambler, a bar-keeper, a Salvation Army lass, a wounded man fleeing from a posse, and a howling blizzard outside to cap the climax of motion and emotion. And there are love and hate and Jealousy and true nobility and fun.

In truth, "Salvation Sue" Is about the thrilliest thriller you've seen in many a day, even in motion pictures, and David Walters, George Denton, Mark Parrott and Blanch Morrison do it Justice. Another big thing at the Empress Is the offerings of the Picchianl troupe of seven as sensational athletes as the heart could wish for or possibly stand for If the seven should do higher Jumping and bounding and whirling in the air and landing on one another's shoulders, then the strain on the heart of the beholder would be too much. Enough said. The Picchlanls are wonders. Apparently, the original of WtiU-tier's barefoot boy Is in our midst for he has no other name on the bill.

Blessings on him, however, whatever his namo may be. How he can whistle, Imitating every known bird in the forest and every beast in the pen.

They end with clever Imitations of George M. Cohan, Eva Tanguay and other Btellnr lights. "Do You Love Music?"

LYDE COLLISON'S PIANO RECITAL. LOCAL MXTSICLVXS OF TALENT ASSIST1XG ARTISTS. SIlss Creighton, Gladys Ognurn, Arthur Pabcock, Pnrccll Mayer and Will Garroway Aided in Making tha Final Programme One of tho Season's Best.

BY 1TECTOR AIXIOT. Clyde Collison's recital at the First Methodist Episcopal Church last evening was notable for the quality and character of the music and for the attendance of nearly 2000 people. Early last October the experiment was begun of giving a series of concerts about every five weeks. The recital last evening, closed the successful series of seven concerts, given at a per capita expense of about 10 cents for each concert, to people of modest means, yet cultured. An average of over 1500 persons has been entertained at these concerts, ethically and musically-developed through the high character of the music dispensed, yet not so high as to be above the heads of most of the auditors.

Therein is to be found the genuine value of the experiment and its success. Besides, over fifteen artists, some of them local teachers, have been heard by parents and possible future patrons, and many a younsr musician has found In these recitals the means of -expression and his first contact with the public. The artlstlo result already obtained has been so satisfactory that it was announced that the 1914-1915 series would begin In October, next. What the First M. E.

Church is doing is in the line of what St Paul's Pro-Cathedral has undertaken recently, with its diocesan choir and organ, and piano recitals, under Douglas. Last week the First Presbyterian Church had its first recital, by the recently-founded Choral Society. Musio Is so closely allied to religious ethics and worship that would seem that the benevolent Influence of occasional concerts under church auspices could well be extended to every denomination, and every house of worship, as conducive to wholesome and elevating entertainment, especially here, where so many visitors, strangers, often lonesome, crave such a form of elevating: entertainment The programme, last night was also a type, well worthy of Imitation. Mr. Colllson first played Mendelssohn's "Wedding March," long familiar and beloved on account of Its many delightful associations, enhanced by the Liszt embellishments of the fairies' dance nd Elfin chorus.

Purcell Mayer was heard In Massenet's "Meditation From Thais" and Beethoven's "Minuet In Outside of his recent appearance at the Becker pupils' recital, this was the first public appearance of the 12-year-old musician. This mere boy 4s unquestionably very talented; the careful training he has received gives him an assurance based on a solid technical foundation which in time will produce a fine artist Meanwhile, Purcell Mayer Is one of the most Interesting students, whose future is being watched by musicians. Mr. Colllson, at the piano, and Miss Gladys Ogburn at tho organ, pave a very pleasing Interpretation of Mo-sart's celebrated "Romanza," from his Minor Concerto. A group of four songs by Franz, Pascal, McDowell and Whelpley, were given by Arthur Babcock, the popular baritone, whoso fine Interpretation and clearness of diction, havo been much appreciated since Jio settled here some time ago.

Another young student who Is entering the professional flelds under very auspicious conditions, is Audrey St Clair Creighton, violinist, who played the "rarely presented Ooldmark aria from his concerto, and Kreisler's "Llebes treud." Miss Creigton played with great assurance, beautiful bowing and attractive interpretation Jlke a veteran soloist, instead of young woman Just entering a career. Miss Ogburn and Mr. Colllson completed the programme with Grieg's Concerto A Minor, first movement, repeated, owing to many requests, from the January recital.
