famous Coincidence, had forsaken

agement of Klaw & Erlanger and
had been captured for the Orpheum
circuit by Martin Beck, head OF
that mighty chain of houses. The
local Orpheum then announced that
Miss Lloyd would open her vaude-
vile tour in the south and would
soon be seen in Spokane. The To-
cal house tomorrow makes good"
its promise by featuring Miss
Lloyd as the headliner for the
week beginning Sunday afternoon.
Although this is Miss Lloyd's
third season in America since her
sensational debut in New York,
this is her first appearance outside
the large eastern cities, and Mr..
Beck is quoted as considering her
engagement one of the most i'm
portant his circuit has ever ac-
complished. 1t is stated that the
aggregate amount of Miss Lloyd's
contract for her tour Is the largest
ever paid a vaudeville artist in
America for a single season.
The McNaughtons, who come
here for the first time next week,
are considered the funniest and
most original comedians that the
Orpheum has ever imported.
The Brothers Permane, the
nervy clowns, have entertained au.
diences throughout the world in
their specially, "Nightingales Max

is not the least charm of the act,
and they artistically portroy two
