PRINCESS THEATRE
A progrummo of varied merit and wide appeal is at present being staged at tho Princess Theatre, where it is giving pleasure to large audiences. The entertainment opens on a bright note struck by the Gadabout burls, nnd this is maintained throughout by the offerings of such performers as Violet irevonyon, Billie Brown, Carlton and Sutton, and others. Armand Triller's turn is quite a novel one, and his finished sketches each evening evoke loud and well-merited applauee. The Fullers' theatres in the north have been packed to the doors in the past few weeks to see Staigs in their mighty hazard m "The Globe of Death." These reckless performers, a young man and a young woman, will appear at the Princess Theatre on Monday next, and a rare thrill is promised those who like their entertainment spiced with desperate hazards to the performers. One of the many feats Staigs undertake is that of looping the loop on motor oyolos in a great sphere of latticed steel. The machines travel at a mile a minute gait, and during this dare-devil ride they cannot see to steer, but simply ride by instinct and judgment. The box plane for their short season are now open at the Bristol.
