condemned to death by order of Nero.
Miss Kershaw will have the best role
she has yet essayed in Mercia, the
Christian maiden. The love story of

Orpheum
The chief feature of this afternoons
program at the Orpheum will be the
appearance of Gennaros Venetian gon-
dolier band, the only organization of
its kind ever. heard in America. On
its arrival in New York last year 1t
played a brilliant engagement in the
eastern metropolis and earned the rep
utation of being one of the best bands
which has ever been heard in this
country. The eccentricity of its leader,
Signor Gennaro, adds rather than de-
tracts from his unique readings of the
scores, and Creatore. whose arms used
to wave some, is forgotten in the
gyrations of Gennaro. A pleasing in
cident in the concert provided by the
band is the singing of Miss K. Carter,
who possesses an extremely sweet and
splendidly cultivated soprano voice.
Madame Theresa REM, the worlds
most famous equestrienne. will intro
duce some magnificently trained horses.
The stage settings surrounding her act
are entirely black, and she appears on
a snow white animal OF the other SEN

dance on horseback is perhaps the most
remarkable.

cent additions to the vaudeville stage,

Husband" She will be remembered as
the hit of several productions such as
-'Muggs' Landing and "A Barrel of

Vine the Saytons. Belle Hathaway's
monkeys and the Cadets de Gascogne
will complete the bill.
