applause. After the Spanish group Co
gorzu was again called back, when he
rendered the Drink To Me" song, even
with more than his old time tenderness.
The final number was Horatio Par
ker's charming ballad The Lark Now
Leaves Its Watery Nest but after
this very exquisite rendition, the au-
dience remained seated and insisted on
the singers return. He responded very
graciously with tho lively and masne-
tic baritone song from 1.-The Barber
of Seville which also aroused
tempest Of enthusiasm. The two bal
lads by Homer Sing Me Song and
THE Requiem were distinguished by
tenderness andsimple feeling, as much
as the Itch I.iebe Dich" was by i'm
passionod fervor.
| Mr.. Gogorza's assistant artist. Mr..
| Henry C. Whitmore, came in for his
| full share of the favor Of the audi

| Orpheum-From the spectators
| standpoint there are three headliners
| at the Orpheum this week. Aside from
| there offerings the bill Is not Of extra
| ordinary merit, though it IS dlVertlns
| and pleasing to a measure. Shooting
| at human target, Frank McCrea, n
| ,.;,, fra -t,-Dt1
| and a phenomenon of skill, opens the
evening. His exhibition of short range
| craftsmanship is one that almost sends
| shu0der through the spectators YER
| teblue. IT is no trouble at all for MIN
to knock the left wing from fly at lo
| PAGES; he goes the limit of his skill
| in every attempt, and every attempt Is
successful Closing his act by shooting
! with two rifles at the same tin1e at two
| quite widely separated targets, he
cllnches his right to the title of cham
pion extraordinary in fancy shooting.
The four Baltus, OlyInpian gyinnasts,
offer as the headline act splendid ex-
Mbition Of hand balancing and strong
man" performances. Grace, strength,
refinement and skill combine to make
their act astonishing. They are SUI
urerior in every way to all others VINO
have preceded them on the orpheulh
stage. .,.v
Nothing like it in any particular ever
was seen before in vaudeville. IT IS
moreover, the work of two salt Lake
boys, Joseph Goss stage manager at
the Orpheum, and Frank Howard, Inc
presiding genius in the box office. With
SIX full-blooded Shoshone Indians in the
cast, appearing by special permission
Of the government, it Is an. attraction
of ste Ring merit. 1t is just new, and
Is starting on the circuit with It's initlal
presentation in this city. Ire staging
and presentation was under the per-
sonal supervision of Mr.. Goss and in no
detail was it lacking. The story IS
OF an Indian maiden who saves the
life OF q cavalrynlan who Ventuifed m
to an Indian camp to claim her as ms
bride. Presenting an Indian war dance,
the weird songs sung to the beat OF
dun the iacantations of a medicine
man and the ceremony of the pipe OF
,aare the novelty of the act Is strik-
iug. To the eastern theatergoef the
offering will be one to attract magnet
ically. The Indians appearing In the
nlaylet arc not hindered in their per
f,rmance with an abundance Of cloth
ing, though in their appearance there
IS uct the slightest suggestion of often
siyeness. 1t is by far the most inter-
estil,s vaudeville act that has been seen
