NEW OFFERINGS AT PLAYHOUSES i "Pair of Sixes" Pleases Poli 4 Vaudeville Very Good Stock Makes Big Hit. "A Pair of, Sixes," produced before two large holiday audiences at the Lyceum theater yesterday, Is a modern production built solely for laughing purposes. There is just the faintest trace of heart interest in the farce. Of fun the kind that produces aching sides, due to incessant laughter there is a plenty. In fact, it constitutes the produotion.

the play is built for it and around it, and it accomplishes its purpose nieely, There are. very few serious moments in the "A Pair of Sixes" not more than enough to explain the plot. Two men are in partnership in a Pill manufacturing concern. Through a combination of effort, they achieve euc cess. But the partners are very vain, each is obsessed by the thought that he is responsible for the firm's proa.

perity. fying, it ft hni'P ft laughs. The very natural result of this is 4hat clashes are constant and become The joke of the office. One of the pro prietors has a wife, the other a sweet heart. One desires to appear important before his wife, the other before hia future helpmate.

As the plot develops (it is seen that they (Peep the. office force in a state of disorganization because each wants to be waited on first. The wife and the sweetheart appear on the scene. This leads to the trouble that ends in the summoning of the lawyer of the firm to dissolve the part. nershlp.

Unfortunately the lawyer is in love with the sweetheart of one ot his clients. After all efforts to end the partnership on reasonable lines fail, he proposes that to find a way out the partners play a game of poker. The loser is to become butler of the win net and subject to his orders for a year. If he violates the agreement the loser is to pay a JlOO fine for every offense of the kind. Should either or the parties to the contract tell an outsider of the agreement he becomes subject to a fine The junior partner, the one who has.

a sweetheart, fails to "'beat" two sixes in the poker game that decides the result. Jle has been over confident and mean in Imposing the bargain on his partner. Therefore the winner, aggravated beyond control takes every nasty 1 advantage of his victory. It is the sweetheart wlo finds the way out. She suggests that the loser make love to the winner' wife and in this way forces him to break the contract.

The plan succeeds to a nicety and after three weeks of complications, the agreement is broken and the partners resume business along the old lines. In the meantime found that the contract, being based on, a poker game, is illegal, therefore it is declared void. The ending, of course, is happy. The company is very good in spots. Miss Mildred.

Booth, as the sweetheart, is the greatest hit in the cast. T. Boggs Johns is the best of the partnership although Mr. N'ettleton, as thie senior partner also scores strongly in some of the scenes. The "Coddles" of Miss Angie Norton is a striking bit of character work.

The piece is well stage and was, as a whole, deserving of the enthusiastic applause and curtain calls it received.
