The Greatest

(So says the Dry Goods Econ
omist ourleading Trade Journai)
Is the Special Sale" as a con-
tinuous performance show. But
Where does the especial Sale"
work an injury to the buyer do
y u ask. Be cause it is largely
y taae. pure and simple.
No merchant could keep it
going everlastingly "as advertis
ed' without drawing largely on
his imagination. He woul d
quickly go to the wall.
The above is taken from the
Dry Goods economist, word for
word, and is truthful. If some
merchants would sell goods as
they advertise, each succeed
ing week the prices are lower
and lower, their goods cheaper
and cheaper, the final would be
their prices become annihilated
and their cheapened goods be-
come worse than shoddy,

"WHIRL-I-GIG" IS
GREAT FUN VEHICLE
AT THE MASON

Whirl-i-gig, whirl-i-gig, and away we
go. You can guess the rest.
Whirl-i-gig, dramatic conundrun
in two guesses, with several catchy mu-
sical Interruptions, opened at the Ma
son last evening While Bobby North,
as Cohenski, wealthy Hebrew and
president of the Matzo trust, tried to
hang on to his money, and everybody
else tried to pull the other end of the
string, Edward Gallagher, as Josh
Boniface and as the proprietor of a
hotel, tried to hang on to his guests
and his servants with very little sue
cess either way.
Rosemary Glosz sang unusually well
and acted the part of the Queen of
Bohemia with a love for art, although
Cohenski remarks:
Art is nutings, dere is nuting in it..
We tried to introduce raisins into our
matzos last year, and it was no good.
The people wouldn't buy"
Fred M. Cady Is Herman Dillpickle,
from Redondo, an inventor of the flot-
ascope, a machine for throwing living
Charles Rice as wilhelm Hocherkaiser,
an architect with the plans for Jail
with all the comforts of home, keep
the audience in roar with their local
jokes and hits.
Bobby North makes a tremendous hit
with his speciality, a parody on all the
well known grand operas. James Il.
Kelly, with Phil Godfrey, as his trained
bear, carry on a clever bit of comedy,
while Violet Arthur, as Cohenski's s
daughter, and with George S. Best as
her lover, round out the story The
chorus has lot of new dances.

ORPHEUM PRESENTS
EXCELLENT BILL
OF TOP LINERS

Nora Bayes, at the Orpheum this
week, has little bit the keenest line
of songs and talk that has been tossed
over the footlights at the Orpheum
this season. Her songs were bright,
her talk was most clever and as re-
suit she made the biggest hit of the
bill. This is the first season she has
ever been west, but she can probably
stay as long as she likes.
Willy Zimmerman. with his imper-
sonations of Wagner, Won Buelow,
Creatore, Sousa and Oscar Hammer
stein, also received many encores to
his act. The description of French
composer, He drank much, slept a
little, and now he Is dead" is gem.
Some of the detail of the act has been
changed since Zimmerman was here
a year ago with the road show, and
1t has more scenic effects than 1t had
previously. Also the talk of the act has
been much improved. The impersona-
tions of Sousa and Creatore were es-
pecially good, although that of Ham
merstein was clever.
Probst with his limitations of birds
and musical Instruments, was rather
unfortunate in his position on the bill.
He followed the Heinrichs, who did
not impress the audience to any great
extent. The final number of the Helm
richs was especially unfortunate, al
though Julia Heinrich's singing re-
deemed IL to some extent Probst' S
act has been seen here before. A new
feature of it is the pictures OF the
birds which Probst initiates The act
is a good one.
Ziska and King have comedy magic
act which amuses. The tricks are none
of them new, but they are presented
so as to make laughs. They open the
bill, although they deserve q better
place on 1t. Linden Beckwith is by
far the best Of the holdovers and her
act was given several encores In ad-
dition to the holdovers mentioned there
are on the bill this week the Majestic
trio, the name Of which is malapropos,
although the smaller of the three Is a
comedian rather above the average.
The bill is by far the best that has been
on at the orpheum for the last month.

PETITION ARoUsEs PROTEST
Property Owners in Date Street Do
Not Want Spur Built by
Southern Pacific

The petition from the Southern Pa
cific, asking for a spur track on Date
street, about seven blocks long, brought
storm of protest from the owners of
property on Date street and vicinity.
About sixty signatures were attachd
to the protest, which declared that
should the council grant the request
and give the Southern Pacific spur
be ruined. Date street is but forty feet
wide and Is lined with little homes,
inexpensive, but in most cases all the
slgners have in the world.
A pathetic feature of the protest was
that not more than two or three of all
the signers could put their names down
for more than thirty-five or forty feet
of frontage.

FISCHER COMPANY
PRESENTS CLEVER
MUSICAL COMEDY

Fischer's theater presented Part of
Merry-land" last night and the bur-
lesque on the Belasco production
proved one of the funniest travesties
yet presented at this theater. The
piece is full of good comedy situations
and sparkles with bright dialogue and
witty jokes, while the musical numbers
are tuneful and pleasing.
The company has been greatly
strengthened during the past few
weeks by the addition of such clever
people as Richard Burton, formerly of
the Hotchkiss theater, a clever actor
and an excellent singer who possesses
a fine baritone voice which he knows
how to use. Miss Ida Bauman is an
other strong acquisition as she won
the audience from the very first note
she sang. Billy O'Brien was welcomed
back last night after a long illness
and the warm reception he received
showed the esteem in which he is held
by the patrons of this house where he
has been identified for so long with
his partner Billy West, in all of the
burlesques produced by the Fischer
stock company. There will be a mat
inee every day this week with ladies'
souvenir matinee on Thursday after
noon.
