worlds greatest horizontal bar perform
ers, and who have been brought direct
from the Empire Theater London, for
the Orpheum circuit Not so very long
ago these men were we'll known in San
Francisco as among the cleverest ath-
letes of the Olympic Club. Since they
have begun their professional career they
have attained fame and are now classed
among the very best acrobats in their
line, in the world. Valmore is said to be
a great European novelty and his line
of work is certainly unique. He has de-
veloped his vocal organs to such degree
that he initiates all sorts of musical in
struments and does 1t cleverly. He Is
credited with giving a very artistic and
interesting performance. Gilbert and
Goldie is another pair of San Francisco
boys who have gathered fame and laurels
during the past year. Recently they
have played the best vaudeville houses
throughout the East and they come to
the Orpheum with an entirely new line
of songs jokes, gags and grotesque COM
edy During this week Joseph Hart will
introduce his famous song of songs,
which was such hit with him in his
Gay Old Boy company. Bert <Coote and
Julie Kingsley will appear in their clever
one-act comedy entitled Supper for
by Fleurette, the charming little Terp-
sichorean artistic and Mrs. Alice j. Shaw
and daughters, the whistling prima dom
mas, begin the last week of their engage
ment and will appear in an entirely new
repertoire. Lorenzo and Allen, grotesque
dancers and comedians. are also new and
are said to be exceptionally clever. They
complete what would appear to be a most
attractive bill.

In the second act all the parties con-
eerned are transferred forthwith to old
Mr.: Iodman's bacA parlor, scene Of the
last three acts. The mysterious Mr.
owen is none other than the new baro-
net himself, who has come over in dis
gulSe to see how matters stand. He falls
in love with the high-spirited Blanche
and resolves, like the Lord of Burleigh,
to win her without the aid of wealth or
station. To this end he also takes up his
quarters under the booksellers roof as
simple employe. BY doing the young
squire handicaps himself heavily In his
endeavors to win the affections of his
naughty cousin, but his manliness and
devotion prevail and the progress of the
contest is followed with interest and
sympathy. Mr.. Owen will be played by
Edward M. Bell, while the naughty
Blanche will be intrusted to Madeleine
Bouton, who, no doubt, will give a very
role. The sister. Amy, and her lover, the
Hon. Gerald Harringay, will be resented
by Fanchon Campbell and r. Daniel

storming of Chapultepec by the American
forces constitute the most stirring scenes
of the play.
The action begins just before the BAT
