Unless you are clear out of hailing
and reading distance you will have
heard of Llora Hoffman before she
leaves our midst next Wednesday even
ing. In case you haven't heard of
Madame Llora Hoffman, she is a singer
who took us all by storm yesterday at
the Orpheum. .
Folk who can't tell a ballad from a
bale of hay paid the tnoute of rapt at
tention and thunderous applause to this
gracious, charming singer. Her voice
in a flexible soprano and she sings with
the ease of birds, lilting from note to
note, smilingly as if it gave her as
much Joy to sing for us as It pleases us
to hear her.
I don't know what she sung the
names of 'em, I mean. A gay little
ballad about love and roses, and a pre
tentious aria that brought out all the
big glory of the lovely voice, and some
other little happy songs. One she gave
us was. "Mighty Lak a Rose," with a
real croon and mother love in the
sweetly shading tones.
Then she quite thrilled us all with
a patriotic song about the boys com
ing back when this gray old world
sings "Home. Swee.t Home" and means
it. The stage presence of the singer
is womanly and she Is a gorgeous pic
ture. She looks so er kissable. fresh
and immaculate, and quite untheat-rical.
Rath St. Deals Pleaaes.
Elizabeth Phelps, who dresses pecu
liarly to show there are no hard feel
ings between her and Queen Mary,
presides at the piano, and maybe the
reason Madame Hoffman's wonderful
figure and marvel gown showed to
such an advantage is because Eliza
beth Phelps' taste doesn't seem to run
in that direction.
Ruth St. Denis' vogue remains un
diminished, and her dances are a singu
lar combination of undeniable genius.
.She brings a series of new dances on
this occasion. Of the five programmed,
she presents three, her well-known
"Spirit of the Sea," in which she in
carnates the restless tossing of the
waters; Jeptha's Daughter, a spectacu
lar welcome dance, and an unique Si
amese dance, in which she is truly a
delightful and colorful study In Ori
ental fantasy.
Margaret Loom is, a piquant little
maid, contributes a graceful interpre
tation of a temple Uanje and a South
Sea Island dance of welcome. ' The
dances are all presented on a bare
green curtained stage, a departure
from the gorgeous trappings that
usually attend on Iluth St. Denis' pro
grammes.
Jim Toney and Ann Norman are the
laugh riot on the bill. They call their
act "Vow Know What I Mean, because
that question, adroitly put. fills in ex
pressively and with telling results for
an entire verse ofttimes.
Music and Comedy Vie,
Jim travesties Miss St. penis' dances
and the audience goes into convulsions.
Then he does a splendid bit of darky
blues dancing. Just to show he- a wlx
