are no less than seven extra dances,
headed by La Blancs. programmed as
experts In this latest foot motion. I
addition to all this Miss Pauline De
Vere makes her first appearance as
leading woman of the Keating-Flood
company. Miss DeVere is an attractive
young woman with a pleasing vole
and an engaging manner. In the role
of the American Princess she has an
opportunity to display her powers as
comedienne.

larger helping of horse play. It was not

Pantac?3.
THERE Is entertainment for every
body this week at Pantages. All
the acts are well worth seeing. The
Navajo Girls' band gives a series of
dollghtful musical numbers. The band
wss particularly pleasing In the An
vil Chorus from "II Trovatore."
The singing members of the company
also pleased. The opening number, an
Indian rag. was well sung and the
costumes and settings were approprl
ate and picturesque. Bert Ross, called
"that funny man." lived up to the
press agent's boast and bad the house
In an uproar with his rapid-fire mono
logue. His singing was equally good
Louise Hamlin and Billy Mack gave
the usual song and dance act, sue
ceeding, however, by good looks and
pleasing manners and some new twists
In, giving- freshness to the turn. Frank
Craig and Fay Elsmore, who created
something of a furore last week with
their "Texas Tommy and other dance
steps, are again giving; an exhibition
of their dances which remind one or
nothing ao much as skating rink gyra
tions.
There was much novelty and daring
in the acrobatic and wlrewalklng act
of the .Bartx Trio. One of the most
difficult feats was that In which the
wlrewalker turned a back handspring,
llghtlnr on the upraised arms of his
teammate on the floor. Kloof ana
Ramsey give a novel skit In which
they employ the dishes on the table,
the food and the furnishings generally
In producing music Accordions con
cealed In the sofa pillows and under
the rugs are made to give forth har
monies. This Is all backed wun amus-
Inir nantomlme.
A number not down on the Dill dub
one that afforded a large share of the
show was the singing of W. W. Owens.
He save the "Tear Song" from "I
Pagllacci" and "The Rosary." and
proved that high-class songs and
methods are not lost In vaudeville.
THE
Is
Empress.
HE week's offering; at the Empress
one without a flaw. The top
liners are four baseball players, who
demonstrate clearly that they can sing
and Joke just about as good as they
can play ball. Their little specialty Is
supposed to take place In the clubhouse
on the day of a doubleheader. The
weather Is bad, however, and as the
second part of the game Is not played,
they do a few Indoor "stunts." William
Gleason, one of the quartet, knocks I
home run In the act and makes a com
plete circuit of the alsUs in the show
house and Anally slides home. The
players are George Crable. pitcher of
the Brooklyn Nationals; William Glea
son, of Dallas, Texas League; George
Robinson, fielder, San Antonio, Texas
League, and Thomas Dillon, shortstop.
Macon, Texaa League.
Another act that rivals that of the
headllners. Judging by the reception
the audience gave It, Is the monologue
specialty by Harry Van Fossen, a min
strel. His antics and line of talk keep
the audience In convulsions.
Every conceivable figure and scene
from commonplace life seemed to be
capable of reproduction by Albert Don
nelly, a hand shadowiat- Even action
was Introduced In the pictures.
Foiowlng the trend of the times, an
other Texas Tommy dance selection was
featured. Fenner and Cllffe, the
dancers, glide with grace and beauty.
Princess Luba Mlroff, a star of for
mer Lew Fields companies, shared
much of the applause for her Russian
dances and American songs. Kitty
Roos. a girl from Alabama and pos
sessing one of the best voices heard at
the Empress for some time,' gave a
number of "coon" songs and cbarao
terlxatlona. .
The athletlo side of the modern vau
deville programme waa upheld by the
Etta Leon troupe, compoaed of seven
wire-walkers. They dance and prance
around on the wires In a manner that

eek's Orpheum bllL Louise Dresser,
and Louise Is quite some dresser, too,
heads the list In a repertoire of old
and new songs, four of the five being
new to this stage, and are appreciated
accordingly. Her solo, "Babyland." Is
a delightful melody and Miss Dresser
sings It effectively. '
La Somnambule, a sensational
French pantomime. Is an unusual di
version In the nature of a dramatlo
playlet, acted a la moving-picture
fashion, the only difference being that
this talk less story is redolent with
color. Mile. Nina Payne, who dances
with artistic expression and grace, has
the leading feminine role and Slgnor
R. St. Ella dances opposite her. By
terpslchorean activities does this com
pany of eight dancers tell a story of
almost disrupted domesticity, and ver-
lly In this Instance dialogue would be
superfluous. A fetching little damsel,
Julie Blddle, In the role of a house
maid, caricatures each dance of her
mistress, and sets the house rocking
with her amusing antics. All the ac
tors have Individual specialties and
three do an ensemble falling down
stairs tbst Is amazing.
The only sketch on the bill Is put
over most acceptably by Harry Be res
ford and his well-selected company of
four players. "In Old New Tork" they
call It. and It depicts an episode of
East Side New Tork. comical In spots,
but with a strain of good sense run
ning through It, to say nothing of
splashes of human interest. Mr.
Beresford has the role of a sign
painter whose large ambition Is to wed
the widow McGovern. the greatest ob
stacle being the disinclination of the
widow to make the exchange. HatUe
Carmontelle is a riot in this role, and
her Irian brogue Is delightfully real.
Edith Wylle has a small bit as Mrs.
McGovern's niece, Mary, whom Matt
Brady, an ex-jail bird. Is wooing. "Mr.
Copps' " attitude in helping the two
young folk In' their matrimonial ven
turea, by which he loses forever his
chances of becoming Mrs. McGovern's
second husband, constitute the story.
John De Weese gives an excellent
characterization of the young Jailbird.
Mr. Beresford's role is easily the fat
part, all his lines being replete with
humor and his acting highly pleasing.
The "dippy mad magician" Is what
Van Hoven writes after his name. Be
fore you see his act you wonder why,
afterwards you say that's the only
way his work could be diagnosed. You
can't put your finger on any tangible
thing he does, but somehow when he
says goodby everyone is roaring
with Joy.
Nobody left the theater when the
last act came on yesterday, but sat
glued to seats until It was all done.
The five Farrell sisters, every one a
beauty and a walking advertisement
of what gymnastic work will do as a
preservative of figure, held a carnival
of dare-devil feats on the bars. Two of
the "sisters," their resemblance is not
apparent In their features, support the
other three, figuratively and literally,
by their wrists and the achievements
of the quintet are of the genuine
thrllly sort.
The audience liked an act by two
negro comedians, Harry Fiddler and R.
Byron Shelton. me two sing cu i
gether. One keeps the piano busy and
one or two of their Jokes were new.
Opening the bill are the two Potts,
Ernie and Mildred. Ernie Is an ex
cellent exponent of the gentle art of
bag punching and gave a ciean. rapiu
.Thihition that brought recogni
tion. Just what part Mildred has In
the act Is not revealed by anything
she does.

The Best Cough Medicine
for Children
I really caanot let the opportunity pass
without thanking you for ths good done
my little son by using chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Be bad a very severe oold. The
doctor gave me medicine for him but it did
him no good. I waa recommended to try
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and before
a small bottle was half finished he was ss
well as ever. In fact, after the first two
doses he seemed to become bright again.
Whenever I hear of anyone having a oold
now, no matter how severe, I recommend
Chamberlain's Congh Ramedy," writes Mrs.
H. Silks. 29 Dowllng Street. Sydney, Aus
tralia The mothers of Australia bare
learned that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
eaa always be depended upon, and that It
contains no opium or other narcotic and
that It la pleasant and safe to take. It has
become very popular In Australia and has
n Immense sale. It Is used by both young
nd old with ths beat results.

Have Your Ticket Read "Burlington"
Some "On Time"
Train Records
While you are planning a journey to the East, consider not only the con
venience and equipment of trains, but your chances of reaching your
terminal "on time." Is this going to be important to you?
The Burlington operates its trains "on time" with remarkable regular
ity. The people of the Northwest will perhaps be- interested in reading
of a few recent Burlington "on time" records:
TRAIN NO. 7 THE FAST MAIL between Chicago and Missouri
River Transfer, a distance of 494 miles, arrived "on time" during
1911 every day from March 17 to September 11, inclusive, 179 con
secutive days.
TRAIN NO. 15 Another and faster Government Mail Train, be
tween Chicago and Missouri River Transfer, arrived "on time"
during .1911 every day from May 15 to August 31 inclusive, 109
consecutive days.
FAMOUS NO. 1 CHICAGO-DENVER LIMITED, during a re
cent calendar year arrived in Denver "on time" 355 days out of
365. The distance of the daily run is 1018 miles.
Is such evidence of ample power, perfect mechanism, fn
tegrity of road bed, and a highly developed organization, of
value in your travel plans?
