ORoHEUM.

For the week starting tomorrow
afternoon, another one of of the
best vaudeville bills seen in Spo-
kane is promised at the Orpheum.
Thirty-seven people are required to
produce the various acts. Heading
the bill is unique act which has
been making a tremendous hit in
the east. "A Modern Pocahontas."
presented by Miss Emma Rainey,
a half breed Indian, and a large
number of full blooded Indians
from the Shoshone Indian reserva-
ton. The Indians have been re-
leased by permission of the govern
ment. In presenting "SiX Little
Girls and Teddy Bear" the pro-
Queer has hit upon a novel idea of
singing and dancing combined with
humor. Everett Scott, the lillipu-
tian, is especially noted for his por-
trayal of animal parts, and will be
seen as The Teddy Bear" in this
act. The Kitabanzai troupe, con-
sisting of eight Japanese acrobats
and equilibrists, is one of the most
remarkable and attractive aggrega-
tions imported by Martin Beck. A
clever offering is that of CASTOR
and Green in their Nell Brinkley
creation called "Spoonyville." Both
are good singers and dancrs, but
the dialogue is said to be feature
of their act. THE Feud" is dra-
matte episode portraying life in the
mountains of northwestern Ken
lucky. Laura Hudson and COM
pany will present the playlet.
Nonette.., a sweet young musician
and singer, who was formerly the
special feature with "The Vassar
GirlF'' COMPANY, comes with an Of
ferihg. G. Herbert Mitchell, the
well known baritone and raconteur,
offers something new and interest
ing in the monologue line. A new
set of moving pictures will be
shown, while Leader Compton has
prepared an excellent program and
will include next week "A Trip to
Coney Island" described as a serio
comic fantasia.

Mirth and melody will be the
order when the new show opens at
the Washington Sunday matinee
with Don Leno's Happy Youngsters
heading the list. Ten singing and
dancing comedians, five boys and
five girls, make up this troupe of
youthful entertainers. Their offer
ing is a musical melange from the
pen of Don Leno, entitled. Exam
ination Day in the Township High
School" An especially added at
traction will be seen in the sensa-
tional equilibristic performance of
Mareena, Nevara and Mareena,
three men who are among the
greatest of modern athletes. This

"The Placement case?" he in
terrogated.
II think that was what he said,
but didn't pay much attention and
I'm afraid l showed little resent

Maddox's eyes watched the
speaker but he did not appear to be
listening to her.

gested, as though speaking to him
self. RAT said your matter would

Placento case?"
Maddox did not answer and when

"Yes-yes, I'm only too glad to

know that" she added.
You will do the work quicker
and better than any one else" he
asserted, imperturbably.
Ainslee rose from her chair.
I'm not even to think what the
Placento case is?" she suggested,
little wistfully.
Maddox frowned doubtfully at
the question, and his eyes express
ed amused perplexity.

he answered; but l intend to find
out, and If do I'll tell you when
we meet again. You shall be the

tralia. One of Americas foremost
cartoonists, Lightning Hopper, will
present his act, consisting of a
series OF comic and artistic crayon
sketches. He has contributed to
the comic supplements Of maya

than ordinary mention is that of
Flora Browning, known as THE

Miss Browning will be assisted by
Kellar, the whistler, in their orig

act is a musical treat as well as
a clever dancing turn. One of the
best Hebrew comedians in vaude-
vile is Joseph X. Watson. Mr..
Watson has a new line of talk and
a budget of parodies. A film of the
newest pictures will close the
show.

: Ainslee turned on the speaker
like flash, her eyes blazing.

Lorimer.
Nugent glanced at some papers
on his desk with studied inatten-
ton.

the bidding of that pitiful wreck?"
Nugent drummed impatiently on
his desk, but neither looked up nor
answered.

She checked herself suddenly
gazed searchingly into Lorimers
hopelessly vacant face, and then
crossed the room and passed
through the door without another
word.
Nugent did not move for few
seconds. Then he caught the stolid
attendants eyes, silently pointed
at Lorimer with his forefinger, and
indicated departure with jerk of
his thumb.
When the door closed behind the
client and his keeper, Mr. Nugent
resumed the writing which Ainslee
had interrupted.
