This week at the Empire will con-
tain the biggest surprise of the many
surprises Mr.. Luger furnishes the
patrons of the maroon playhouse.
There are Ave headline Orpheum acts
scheduled and as the performance
will last two hours, Mr.. Luger has de-
cided to give only one performance
nightly and for this reason will re-
serve the seats.
The Mylie-Walton musical comedy
company, the stellar attraction book
ed, is composed Of actors and musi-
clans Of ability. who present "Ching
Pang Foo" the first half Of the week
and The New Ruler" the latter
half. These playlets run about for
ty minutes, with as many minutes of
laughter. Hill, Cherry and Hill come
billed as Americas greatest unicycle
and bicycle wonders. They made a
hit in the twin cities with their trick
bicycle work. They are the only BIZ
cyclists in the world riding three high
on one wheel. Eva Thatcher, THE
Irish Lady," Is character comed-
ienne. She is reputed to be first
class entertainer. Lavelle & Grant
and DeHaven & Sidney. are two acts
which Mr.. Luger secured on his, re-
cent trip to Winnipeg. Mr.. Luger
has this to say of these acts:
Charles DeHaven and Jack Sid
ney are two OF the youngest and most
noted dancers in the United States.
After. their trip through the west, the
boys will tour Europe for six months
as they are booked to open at the
Empire theater. London, England, in
June. Besides being good dancers,
the boys are good dance producers,
as they are originators Of all the
steps they do. They have dancing
novelty act entitled, 1.-THE Dancing
Waiter and Guest" which must be
seen to be appreciated. The boys are
just coming from the Dominion the
alter, Winnipeg and are on their way
to the coast. Mr.. DeHaven Is also ar
athlete and good runner, is men,
Der of the 1rish-American club, Acorn
club and other we'll known athletic
clubs. This gentleman is holder of
the 100 yards championship, having
won that title over In Athens two
years ago. His partner, Jack Sidney,
Is good song writer and at the
present time he is preparing a new
song, Honey Lou" The boys do all
kinds of difficult dancing and enliven
their act by superfluity Of comedy.
"Layelle & Grant are opponents OF
physical culture, they give a varied
performance of head and hand bal
,ancing and posing. Lavelle gives an
extraordinary exhibition of muscle
play. OF the two he is perhaps the
better developed. His statue pose
show a development and control CT
muscles seldom seen. Grant is the
weight man and handles his 165
pound companion as If he were bag
of feathers. advise every young
man who Is a student of physical Gull
ture not to miss this act and anyone
Wishing to meet Mr.. Lavelle may call
at my Office at the Empire. Mr.. La
.velle will gladly converse with those
interested, upon physical culture and
athletic development. When he was
a boy he was so thin and slight that
his companions used to joke him
about his weakness. Now he is a
physical marvel and his advice along
these lines Is of great value"
