Vaudeville This Week the Best Seen
in Topeka.

The best vaudeville show in the his
tory of the Midwinter exposition is be-
ing given this week.
Although each of the four acts of the
show are excellent, the Okabe family
of japanese acrobats are without doubt
the cleverest that have ever appeared
here in years.
The Okabe family consists of seven
persons. each one an artist. Their per-
Torrance Monday was put on in rather
an abbreviated form owing to the fact
that their baggage was lost while en-
route to Topeka from Chicago They
reached Topeka with only one trunk.
The baggage has been located and has
reached Topeka. and the performance will
be given in its entirety tonight.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
baggage containing most of the ward
robe and the paraphernalia used in pre-
senting their act was not availa Bile,
severl stunts were put on at the two
performances Monday that were start
ling in the extreme. The work of the
Okabe family is clever enough to rouse
even the most jaded amusement
seeker
The juggling act of Campbell and
Brady is likewise one of the best that
has ever been seen in Topeka. This
team gives several new turns that have
not been presented on the local stage
heretofore.
Satterfield and LaF1eur do a clever
trapeze and ring act. Both members of
this team are women.
Thomas and Henry Gerome, formerly
with the Barnum and Bailey circus
succeeded In winning their share of ap-
plause at the two performances Mon

Grecian and Roman statuary.

familiar with the designs that can be
worked out in ice cream and the skill

made demonstrates the ability of this

that each carton contains full sixteen
ounces.
