Another bill o f extraordinary merit
has boon assembled for the Orpheuin.
It is headlined b.v William II. St. James
and his players in “ A Chip o f the Old
B lo ck ," a comedy written by Byron
Onglet, author o f “ Brewster 'a Mill­
ion s." St. James has an illustrious rec«
ord as a comedian on the legitimate
stage and in his vaudeville vehicle his
capability as a fun creator is seen at I
its best. The playlet is based on an in­
cident in the life o f an inmate o f an
a cto r’s home and portrays the ambition
o f an out-and-out comedian to shine in
tragic roles.
Others on the bill to reign at the
Orpheuin for the week o f July 20th are
Martin Johnson in his travelogue re­
vealing amazing oddities o f the South
Sea Islands and their strange people.
Charley Case, celebrated blackface
comedian, who tells stories about his
father; the Robertt De Mont trio in a
in a rumbling act called “ Hotel Turn

don society entertainers in “ A Lady,
Great Libby, boomerang comedy cyclist,

erty in a novel dancing sketch and the
“ Playing the Races” will be the pro­
duction at the Lyric next week com­
mencing with Monday matinee. In this
laughable musical mixture all the pop­
ular members o f the Armstrong Follies
Company will be seen at their best and
the Lyric patrons will have an oppor­
tunity of seeing one o f the most enter­
taining entertainments seen in many
moons. Miss Beatrice Flint, who was g.
such a decided hit during the past l
week, will again be seen with this | &
clever aggregation o f players. Dainty t
Clara Howard and the Baby Dolls will | 4»
have some very pleasing numbers and ***
wear some pretty costumes. Will Arm- I ,
strong will show you how easy it is to 1
beat the races and Gus Leonard will •
show you his own original way o f win- *»*
ning a race. In the comedy roles these f
two favorites will keep you laughing ‘T
throughout the entire performance, w
There will be the usual two perform- j J
a aces every night, a matinee daily and i
the “ Baby Doll
contest on Friday j X
night. On Friday nights, owing to the 4
length o f the performances, the curtain ;
rises on The Tirst performance at 7:15 f

Mrs. Morris are extremely happy enter-

approbation.
In the Clipper Quartetee, vaudeville
patrons will have opportunity to enjoy
an act that has made good in all parts
o f the universe. The members are all
endowed with splendid voices and their
comedy is happily mingled with their
melody, making the act a most delight­
ful one. One of their best numbers is
the effect in harmony which scores a,
big success.
Another act o f unusual merit is that

The proud distinction o f being the
largest bouse in Euglnnd is generally
accorded to Lord Fltzwilliam’s York­
shire seat. Wentworth Woodhouse. Of
tills bouse it is said that (he three prin-
clpal
ipnl entrances are so far distant from
each other that visitors are advised to
brlug three hats with them, one to be
kept at each point of egress. A bouse
which is (¡00 feet long, has a hall I d
