ADJUSTMENTS

With all the good shows that have
held the boards at the Orpheum this
season, the one of last night must
stand pretty high in the list. From the
opening number to the last there are
few things that are not up TO the high
est mark IN vaudeville stunts. OF
course, interest centers in the playlet
Car Two, Stateroom One" in which
Miss Nita Allen stars with her COM
pany of three. The idea presented is
fairly original, and the star and her
second, Frank Erwin Rodolpn, carry 1t
out in original ways. Miss Allen is
certainly a. clever little actresc, but Mr.
Rodolph is entitled to fully as much
credit. and the others are good, too.
Just who would be entitled to second
place in the bill it would be hard to say.
The first number is one seldom heard
by any audience. NJ. o. Mitchell, the
phenomenal ventriloquist. is easily the
best ever seen here; and that on top
of the fact that one was seen two weeks
ago who was high up In his class
But from an artistic standpoint and
that of pure enjoyment Herbert Med
ley was about at the top. His magnifi-
cent bass voice, which ranges to a fine
quality of baritone as WELL is admira-
oily adapted for each selection given,
but his rich brogue and clever touches
of Irish gave the palm to his "Tippe-
rary," which could not have been sung
better by Paddy Leary' himself.
Not so much can be said of the mar
velous American soprano" Edith Hell
ena. She is marvellous in possession
Of voice of wonderful range, but
what she has in quantity she lacks in
quality and adaptation. A few lessons
in breathing and phrasing would make
q change in the voice.
The brothers Damn DO the usual
acTobatic stunts well, the wonder being
as to how a man weighing 200 plus can
do them AM retain his weight. The
four trumpeters discard their trumpets
for other instruments and dc several
things with them. And the kinodrome
is good. The house, as usual, was
packed to the doors and the applause
was generous

There is good show on at the Grand
theatre, one that makes a strong ap-
peal to the religious sentiment in addi-
ton to those who love the realistic and
the melodramatic on the stage. The
play is 1.-THE Holy City" It deals with
the tragedy OF Calvary and presents
with force many Of the incidents that
mark this most interesting event in all
history. The play is we'll staged and
the leading parts are I'm strong hands.
Especially strong are Mr.. Sherwin as
Judas, Miss Morley as Salome, L. E
Martelle as Caiaphas, Edgar Jones as
Marius and Lillian Alexander as Eliza
beth. There are supported by a COM
pany of much more than usual
strength. Every scene is we'll presented
and the interest is sustained from be-
ginning TO end with scarce a break.
In the first scene the interest centers
I'm the beheading of John the Baptist:
the second gives the plot to betray Je-
sus and the stoning OF Mary Magda-
lene; the third gives the betrayal by
Judas and closes with a view of the
crucifiXion the fourth gives the clos
ing incidents in the tragic love of Ma
RUS and Salome.
THE Holy City has a good tone: il
teaches the best of all lessons and is
intensely interesting. 1t will run to-
night. tomorrow afternoon and tomor-
row night.

but by taking the total number of farms and their acreage and making a conservative allowance for posts for the fences inclosing each farm. 1t has been estimated that upwards of t,000,- 000, ,000 posts are set each year. Such figures are too vast to mean anything. Even the nine million posts of the Census, mere drop in the bucket as compared with the unreported produc- tton, would, if set 15 feet apart. girdle the earth. or would build q solid pile 55 feet wide, 40 feet high, and a mile long
