The newspapers and medical jour

ORPHEUM

A list of vaudeville acts that take
fairly well comprise the attraction
at the Orpheum. Mr.. Walter Lewis
and his company, presenting "A
Baby Grand" and Mr.. Edwin Ste
vens, assisted by Miss Tina Mar
shall, in "An Evening With Dick
ens," are favorites. "A Baby
Grand" is overlooking with good,
wholesome comedy that is perhaps
fully appreciated by many a young
married couple in the audience who
were married on the sly, because
her" papa did not look with favor
on the proposition Of having that
certain young man for a son-in-law.
Edwin Stevens character portrayal,
according to the works of Dickens,
is quite clever, and he is ably aid
ed by Miss Marshall. Towards
musical ponies and trained dogs
make hit. Their tricks are gener-
ally the same as seen in the circus
ring, with the exception of one mu-

GREAT FOR
THE WOMEN

Probably the most gorgeous ar
ray Of costumes seen on a stage
here this season is displayed in the
Partisan Model" which opened for
a weeks engagement at the Spo-
kane last night before an audience
that filled the theater. In fact, with
the exception of one or two Incl
dents, The Partisan Model" is
cleaner than most shows of this
character and appeals more to ar
tistic sense than to the less ele-
waiting emotions. The costuming
of the women in the play is a mar
vel and caused feminine exclama-
tons of pleasure from among the
audience. The stage pictures are
brilliant, the singing is melodious,
and the comedy is up to the stand
ard. One of the pleasing features
OF the show is the work of the lead
ing lady, Miss Hazard, who plays
the model, but does it SO neatly
and cleverly as to gain friends in
the audience from the start. The
comedy of Robert Lett, the funny
man." is good, and he can sing as
we'll as make people laugh.

PANTAGES

Lasky's "Hoboes," the sextet of
gentlemen of the road, who feature
the bill at the Pantages theatre
this week, made decided hit with
the patrons of the vaudeville house,
"Dago Dan" and "Strathaven
Bunk" the latter taking to the
road" because his mother wouldn't
let me croquet in the conservatory,
proving the mirth-provokers of the
troupe.
Jacques Greno, the balancing
wizard, who cooks a repast and
partakes of it on the slack wire,
is exceedingly clever. His handling
of the canes is the best seen here
for some time.
Kennedy and Kennedy, song and
dance artists, have an amusing ar
ray of songs and steps
"A Thief in the Night" by Miss
Nina Nestor and companl, is very
amusing sketch of trained nurse
being taken for a burglar.
Loughlin's performing dogs rank
with the best animal acts, the roll
ing of balls up an incline by the in
telligent CANNES featuring the act.
IDEAS, Reed and Deas, a trio of
colored song and dance artists,
form very pleasing addition to a
first-class bill.
