week to follow, another bill Of vaude-
vile which includes some of the most
expensive attractions.
The headliner for next week is How

more than national reputation. The
daily press from New York to San

of Mr.. Thurston s powers to keep the
audience ''guessing,'' and many crit

that of any magician or illusionist now
appearing on the stage.
Another new feature on the program

Lyceum-The Jewess.
"The Jewess,'' an adaptation Of Au-
'tLeah, the FoIsaken,'' will give Ly-
ceum patrons all next week excepting
Friday evening-an opportunity to see
one Of the strongest and most celebrated
plays of the last forty years.
It's appeal is two-fold. Leah, the
| maiden around whose piteous and unjust
destiny the story Of the play turns, is a
| character which stands out in artistic
relief as one of the most natural and ap-
| pealing characters in stageland. In
| addition, the play touches the hearts of
all who love liberty, and hate oppres
sion. The persecution Of the Jews at its
/ height in the eighteenth century, forms
its central theme. This gives the play
a strong race interest, and adds to it's
i wonderful hold upon the minds and
