Gardner Crane and company In "The Little Sunbeam," which Is one of those big pieces that always strike vaudeville audiences Just right. There is no woman entertainer on the stage who gives greater satisfaction as a comedienne than Mrs. Crane, who has been prominent in theatrical affairs for yes.ts. Along with being an actress of much ability she is also the author of several plays. According to the reports from he latest vehicle in which she is expected to attain a record success here, is a real suitable one for her.

Also her company is one of the best that has yet been assembled for vaudeville productions. The stage setting represents the interior of a Pullman sleeping car on the main line between Chicago and New York. A husband and wife who have been separated get berths in the same car. Each remains unconscious of the other's presence until detectives spot them as being the pair of notorious confidence people on their way to New York to make a big haul there after having enriched their purses in Chicago by a slick game. There come lots of mix ups as the result of the detectives selecting the wrong couple, and' of the wife and husband learning of their presence in the ear.

The big added attraction promises to be the best feature of this character that the Poli has ever offered. It will be furnished by Edward (Davis and company, who offer "Found Out," a playlet that has been accepted by the critics as the strongest and most un usual that has come into vaudeville. In support of him are Miss Jule Power, a well advanced actress, and Mel Rosenow, a clever leading man. The company of three artists appear in evening dress and fight out their battle of wits and words rather than with swords. One of the best "of the comedy cycling turns going tne rounds this season is that of Mosher, Hayes and FACTORYVILLE FACTORTVTLLE.

Wltfc Matiswe. i Reunions are always interesting to the public, which has a perfectly natural desire to see the things its fathers and mothers saw and still talk about. Many of these successful partnerships have been severed by the relenuess hand of the Grim Angel; som have ben parted for purely business reasons. Last year saw the tremendously successful reunion of Joe Weber and Lew Fields, and this year will mark the equally important reunion of 'Primrose and Dockstader.

Twenty years ago the name of Primrose and Dockstader's Minstrels was a household word In every locality where minstrelsy flourished in the hearts of the people, and as'ezemplifled by them this form of entertainment reached its high water mark. When George Primrose retired some years ago, It was with a fortune well earned. But relaxation did not agree with him and there were rumors of his reentry into active life every little while. This Summer this reentry was definitely decided upon, and since it Is to be made in company with his former colleague it will be all the more important. It will give those who have never an' opportunity to see him under peculiarly advantageous conditions, and thaae who have seen Dockstader of late years, of seing this king of blackface comedy In the most elaborate and complete setting which he has ever ornamented.

The production be Known as Primrose and Doskstader'e Greater Minstrels, and will be the best equipped minstrel company which ever set out irom ew ion vnj. it the attraction at the Lyceum this afternoon and evening.

A large cast and ba.let of EngliKh dancing girls assist Miss Kellermann in these two P'oduetUjns.

Hear Mill Cassias. Henry Miller's beautiful play, "The Rainbow," gives him the essentially modern role of a father whose daughter seventeen when first she puts her head upon his shoulder.

His acting in this role, is admirably and tenderly modern. As one of the best known critics in New York said last season, his acting "adds dignity and distinction to the American stage." And the work of the star Is made doubly effective by the simple, unaffected playing of Ruth as the daughter. Miss Chatterton is just the age of the character she depicts seventeen and she is a. living embodiment of a sweet, blithe, Ingenuous girl without a trace of artificiality. These two characters carry" the important episodes of "The Rainbow," and Mr.

Miller's own superb acting as the fathnr together with the unaffected simplicity of Miss Chatterton as the daughter make the shifting scenes of the story seem like happenings from actual life. Mr. Miller's engagement at the Lyceum is for Friday. October 25. He will be seen here with the entire original New York cast.

"Freckles." It must not be understood that "Freckles" is a play of all love and atmosphere, for It is not; there is Plenty of action of the kind that "makes the pulse beat faster." "Freckles' adventures with the "timber thieves" are scenes which will not be soon forgotten. The play is great In Its simplicity, and the story is an estimable example In the value of doing right, against all temptation: that right is might and endures. Delama ter's great scenic production with an exceptionally strong cast will be the attraction at. the Lyceum next Saturday afternoon and evening. October 26.
