Comments on Performance of "The Vanderbilt Cup" One of Players the "28" and "Mean Disposition" Man of "Little Johnnie Jones" Last Season SpecUl Features Better Than Narrative Intereetr A Good House. Whoever taw "Little Jonnia Jones" in the Academy last season will re member that It was a cracking good show and that the most conspicuous and popular player in its cast was the fellow who, pretended to be drunk; the fellow who introduced here the expression, "13," and determined what constitutes a -"mean disposition." Well, the same fellow was here last night 1n "The Vanderbilt Cup," as Mr. Wlllets. His name is William Keogh. He pleased the audience last night, but not up to his capabilities, for he was hoarse; hut everybody re membered his good work last year and felt cordially toward him. There was very little story interest In the show. The feature work was capital. The dancing of the three girls In the' third act raised a lot of enthusiasm and deserved more; it was mora than perfect Miss Alice Dovey, as Dorothy Wlllets. was a lit tle darling; petite, graceful, pretty, a good alnger, she pleased the boys. Mr. Thayer, as the leading man, was good, and Mr. Anderson jnade a hit with his song and chorus, "Some where in the World." The moving picture atunt was worked to Its utmost advantage, rep resenting the 'mobile races most realistically, the effect being heighten ed by the snorting behind the curtain of a sure enough automobile. This business closed the show while the audience excitement waa at its cli max. As a short variety show "The Vanderbilt Cup" was first rate. There was a rood house. .PERSONAL, The Movement of a Number ot Peo ple, Visitors and Others. . Mr. J. B. Allen, oft Klttrells, Is the guest of Mr. Rufua Person. , Mr. J. E.
