0RPHEUM PROGRAM
IS WORTH WHILE

The oftener the Jack Golden program
at the Orpheum changes the better the
shows are and last night s change fol-
lowed the rule. There was a good
house and an appreciative one, the vari-
GUS numbers being well received.
Golden himself is proving a prime
favorite and his fun making efforts re-
ceive ready response.
The moral of last night S skit is that
it does not pay to pretend to be a
man that looks like yourself. Billy
Wheelan, as Jack Vanderlip, tried that
as ruse to guard against a jealous
wife and it is around and about the
deception that the plot thickens. Golden
has quiet part that gives his humor
full play.
There are some very pretty dancing
numbers and a quartet that is the best
yet, taken part in by Picnic Edwards,
Alene johnson, Jack Golden and Billy
Wheelan.
The show for the rest of this week
is worth while.

which he was noted. Frere married
Lady Enrol. and "whiTe they were en-

drank up the glass Of wine he had
poured out for her and then took her
back supperless to the ballroom. After
the wedding he went straight from
the church TO Mr.. Murray, the pub
