ster schoolmarm. the Scotland Yard de-
tective, a love-sick German professor,
and other members of the academy
household. The plot has all changed by
this time, and the story deals with the
adventures of the pseudo Miss Brown
during her stay of half a dozen hours in
the school. The escape is effected at
midnight, after there has been a terrible
struggle between all hands and Miss
Brown, and after all the pretty inmates
of the school have been frightened al
most out of their wits.
1t ends well, as a matter of course.
The captain suddenly falls heir to titles
and estates that befit him for the hus-
band of even ward of chancery, and
which give him a position so high that
his offense is condoned.

The new bill at the Orpheum for this
week will have many novel and pleas
ing features. 1t will be made up of the
very best of the talent available from
the vaudeville realm. 1t will be a reg
ular carnival of comedy, songs, acrobat
ic feats, dances and witty dialogue. The
management has endeavored to secure
bill that VIII not have one tame act but
on the contrary each act of itself is
worthy of being made star attraction,
and would be in an eastern house. A
great novelty has been secured in the
Guatemala marimba players This
troupe Of musicians played for one week
only at the Columbia theater in San
Francisco and were at once secured for
the Orpheum circuit. Their work in San
francisco attracted the attention of the
daily papers, and the marimba players
were the talk of the city, for no such
music had ever been heard in this coun-
try until the troupe of musicians from
the ancient city of Antigua opened at
the Columbia. They will appear at the
Orpheum dressed in the native costume
of Guatemala.
The Mimic Four will make their first
appearance in this city this week. AS
burlesque musicians and impersonators
they are very funny, and their render
ing of their version of Trilby is said to
be exceedingly clever. Miss Essie Gin
ton will appear in character sketches
and pleasing vocalisms. Miss Clinton
ranks as star.
Golden, Chalfant and Golden will ap-
pear in their great comedy sketch, in
which they will introduce new songs
and dances. The clever dancing of Miss
Golden has made her one of the star at
fractions of the bill She is the daughter
of Mr.. Golden of the team and whose
whistling outranks anything ever heard
in the Orpheum. Miss Golden was born
in Washington, D. c.. and she is but II
years old. Her first hit was made in the
song. The Man In the Moon She has

derful work she now does has only been
accomplished by long continued prac-
tice. Her high kicking and unique
dances are characterized by the easy.
