Opheum-

From the standpoint Of the manage
ment, the announcement that the
Fadettes of Boston will appear at the
Orpheum theater the week of Jan. FL is
the most important yet made this sea-
son. The Fadettes are not only the
greatest musical organization In vaude-
Vile, consisting Of twenty-five pretty
young women Of rare musical accom-
plishment, but they are, according to
the conservative Boston Herald, Gin
comparably the greatest organization
of woman players in the world" Altho
the appearance of an expert orchestra
of twenty-five young women on a vau-
deville stage Is rather recent expert
ment it has been tremendous success.
On the bill with the Fadettes will be
the Marco twins, who describe them
selves as things to laugh att; the
great Okabe Japanese troupe, seen here
last season; Nellie Florede, an accom-
.plished vocalist; Barnold's dogs and
cats; AL Lawrence, vaudeville favor
lite mimic; and Dixon & Fields.

The play will be superbly mounted,

UNIQUE ..-z. >-.,
, Continuous Vaudeville
The Unique will present a brand new
comedy bill this week which is war
ranted by the management to embody
as much fun and entertainment as can
conveniently be crowded into a popular
priced vaudeville show. While it diff
fers from last week IS bill in variety,
it has acts Of equal merit, and Manager
Elliott is confident that patrons will
find much to commend.
One banner European act is down for
this week, that Of the Lucados, novelty
balancers. Things are not easily de-
tached that the Lucados do not manage
to get hold Of and juggle when their
clever act gets under full Roadway.
Both are strong, brilliant performers,
d
execution that makes the act doubly in
teresting.
A comedy sketch conceived along
original lines and said to be somewhat
out of the ordinary will be presented
by Love and ROLLS, two capable players
who left the legitimate boards two sea-
sons ago for trial trip in vaudeville
at the urgent solicitation of managers.
They have been so successful that in
vaudeville they doubtless will remain.
Alfred Anderson, a young man with

ORE EXHIBITS At THE FAIR
Old Camps Make Better Displays
of Their Wealth and New
Districts Send Samples.

Word comes that good mining ex-
hibit will be seen at the Spokane Inter
state Fair this year, which opens Sep.
TENDER "a, Robt. H Cosgrove. manager
of the fair, has preserved all the exhibits
which have been gathered during the
last two or three years, and this in itself
makes good display of the mineral
resources of the Pacific northwest. Be-
sides these. however, many camps are
sending in new specimens which will
freshen up their displays and show the
latest developments of their mines and
the new discoveries.
George William Cornish of Green
wood, b. C., is preparing entire new ex-
hibits of the big mines of the Boundary
country. which will be shipped to the
fair this year. The Boundary in the
past has had some of the best ore ever
seen at Spokane.
Many new exhibits will be made by
the mines of the Couer dAlenes. This
district has been forging ahead with
great rapidity during the past year and
the mining men believe that while in the
past they have had representative show.
ngs of their properties at the Spokane
fairs, it is quite necessary that these be
added to in order to properly represent
the mines of this now famous section.
1t is the desire of the management of the
fair that all the districts in the Pacific
northwest follow the example Of the
Couer 'Alenes and the Boundary and
strengthen their displays at the fair
which lasts two weeks this year instead
OF one. and will be a greater benefit to
all miners who exhibit. Several new
camps and discoveries will make show
ing for the first time.

Boys Who Run Wild.

The murder of James f. Sloa ne WAS
one Of the most horrible affairs ever
committed in Spokane. The fact
that the deed was committed by the
victims son adds to the horror of the
affair.
The act was deliberate, cold blooded,
brutal in every detail; yet it is not inn
probable that another plea of emo
tional insanity will be made in his
behalf, says the Spokesman Review.
Everything may be done to shield the
youth who deliberately planned to
murder his father for $500. Already
his friends have advised him. Pre-.
sumably they have given him hope,
have given him to understand that he
has friends and they will help him.
Do these friends fail to realize that
something is due society? Do they
pass over the important fact that a
social leper is kept from society for
society's good and not for the con.
venience Of the outcast? Sympathy
is a great aud noble trait; but it
ehould not be misdirected-it should
not be confused with maudlin senti-
mentality. The deliberate perpetrator
OF n revolving crime is not to be pet
ted and turned loose to commit new
horrors.
This young man had companions.
Other young men in Spokane sssocia.

some Of his debssing psstimes. There
are smaller editions of Sidney Sloane.
They may lack the nerve, the cruelty,
the utter degeneracy Of the boy who
now occupies n cell in the city Jail,
but they are on the down hill grade.
II rot stopped now there is no way
to fore,elI the depths OF depravity to
which they may descend.
