Orpheum-vaudeviIle.

Want to laugh?
 Want to spend pleasant afternoon or evening?
 Want to be entertained with clean and wholesome acts?
 If so, go to the Orpheum this week, commencing tomorrow afternoon with 8 matinee, and tomorrow night with the initial evening performance.
 It's there for everybody this week, and it's poor human being indeed who can't find laugh that tickles him, a song that pleases his fancy, or a pretty girl to de- light the eye on this weeks Orpheum bill.
 As a top-liner the management has sent Gus Edwards Night Birds," a fa- nous act, with pretty and clever Nellie Brewster in the lead. She has 12 able as sistants, six girls and six beys, singers and dancers. Their costumes are beau- tifu1, the scenic effects are pretty, the music new and catchy.
 This Is tho largest act Martin Beck has yet sent to Birmingham, for in all there are IA people with it. The act is booked as funny, feathery. fanoiful furore.' and such it has proved to be every whore. It is small musical comedy in itself.

"Mrs- Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch" at
 bliou.

ssWhat's the name of this street." asked Tevsy Mary of small bare-footed girl.
 "'Taint no street, answered the lit- tie girl, gazing with undisguised amuse- rnsnt at the strange-looking girl. This here is the Cabbage Patch"
 Such was Lovsy Mary and Little Tom nay's introduction to the locale of Mrs. Wigys of the Cabbage Patch." that rich American play drAmatissd by Mrs. Anna Crawford FIexner from the stories. Mrs. Wiggs'' and ''Lovsy Mary written by Mrs Alios Hogan Rice, which comes to the BiSou this week. Most every one has read the books and therefore the story of the play into which the two books are telsscopoA is more or less familiar. The dramafization concerns itself solely with life, and tho brisk action is crowded with types and homsly pictures. Mrs Wiggs didn't live technically. and the play which exvaofts her is rsgArdful of heart interest rather than of mech anieal precision.
 Tho entire action takes place in the Cabbage Patch, portrayed exactly as de- scribed by Mrs. Rice. who says: ''It was not real cabbage patch. but a queer neighborhood, where ramshackle cottages played hop-scotch over the railroad track There were no streets, so when new house was built, the owner faced it any way his fancy prompted. MT. Bagby's grocery, 1t is true, conformed to conven- tion and presented a solid front to the railroad track; but Mis- Hays cottage shied off likewise into the Wiggs' yard as if it was afraid of the big freight trains that went laundering past so many times a day, and Mrs. Schultzs front room looked directly into the Eichorns kitchen The Wigss house was the most imposing in the neighborhood, This was probably due to the fact that 1t had two front doors and tin roof. Ono door was nailed up. and the other opened up outdoors. It was the only tin roof in the Cabbage Patch. Jim and Billy had made it out of old cans which they had picked up on the 'commons.'
 The play opens in Mrs. wiggs's cot tage with the wedding of Mis- Hazy to MT stubbins who has been provided by a matrimonial agency Mis- Hazy has been '.siclsed on' to matrinony by Mrs Wiggs. who had aided In the winning of MT Stubbins by artistic cooking. which is passed of as the brides own. The wedding Is as funny as could be imagined and no comedy possibilities have been overlooked. Here one meets everyone but Mrs Wiggs, who returns later in the play.
 In the second act the interior of Mrs Wiggs' shanty is shown: Lovey Mary and Little Tommy are harassed by the asylum authorities and the father of the little fellow who clings to his benefactress Mrs. Wiggs conducts her famous Sunday school, and Mir Stubbins falls from grace. and in his drunken condition is shipped away in freight car Tn the final act there Is the return of Mrs. Wiggs and of Mir. stubbins. who rehabil- itates himself, and there comes also the justification of LovAy Mary.

tainment beginners may find some ad- vantage in meeting managers through ir- huential sources, but I doubt it. It is a more agreeable entree into the sanctorum which may stamp your personality more readily on the managers minds but an audience acknowledges no introductions, neither money, nor beauty, nor influence this holds from the beginner te the star.
 Money can buy an cpnkng possibly, and may buy orportunftjas. but 1t rests with the singer to hold her evn- The only weapon that can cut into the core of the thing is work, work and study.
 Singing is divine ayt and unless a girl gives her whole heart and mind to her work, she is sure to fail.
 There are many rounds in the ladder which leads to success, and the only way possible to reach the top is through merit, knowing that you have to create a place. create demand for yourself
 "A young woman who takes up the art of singing in the hope of becoming & pro- fessional has perhaps a much harder task than any other student. for she has to take the best of care of herself and deny herself of many pleasures in order to preserve hsr voice. However. the greatest pleasure In life to a girl is when she resltzes that she has accomplished her ambition.
 
 task, ana a girl should be very careful in selecting her teacher, and select one that can sing. don't mean to say that every good singer would make a good teacher. A taachsr should, by practical experience and demonstration, show the defects of the voice by comparing 1t with true sorority and real style. A girl should beware of a teacher who at tho first lesson begins to teach her how to sing song. He or she does not know his or her business Such teachers are trading under false pretenses. That is one reason why We have so many fail- ures. Learn first the fundamental prin- oiples of tone location. learn how to take a. tone. learn how to breathe deeply without straining. Don't get overly anx- ious to sing a song until you have full control of each and every tone in your register. When you have mastered and are able to control your voice, 1t is then time to learn to express yourself in song. There Is no material benefit derived from essay literature. Explanatory notes re- sarding the vocal chords amount to noth- ing. I never heard of any one becom- ing a prominent singer through reading essays on the voice
 The opportunities for good singers are greater today than ever. When a girl makes up her mind to study for the stage and imagines that a few weeks training will fit her for 1t. she is laboring under a wrong impression Such girls very sel- dom get beyond the chorus. If a girl puts her mind to study and is not afraid of work, and is ambitious, she is bound to succeed.''

Ills Last Joke.

From a London Paper.
 The following incident occurred at . Liverpool bar the other night:
 There were three men standing at the bar, when a peddler entered and called for drink. The manager was just leaving the premises at the time, but, spotting the peddler, he whispered to the other customers that he play a trick on him by giving him bad two shilling piece.
 Going up to his victim, he purchased a knife.
 "Ohl never mind the change; I'm in hurry" he said, as he rushed out of the bar
 The peddler scrutinized the coin and, with a merry twinkle in his eye. ordered drinks all round. The man ager's wife supplied the refreshments called for and, taking the bad two shilling piece, handed over the change The peddler then departed.
 Two minutes afterward back came the manager to see how his little trick had worked.
 He never played any more tricks after that one.

SUFFRAGE MOVEMENT
Seems To Be Waning in Popularity In
 England.

London, January 2s.-(special.)-If pres ent appearances go for anything. the suf- fragette movement h no further advanced than 1t was a year ago. In fact, many male sympathizers declare that tho 'votes -for-women" sisterhood is more un- popular than ever with the masses. AL though the dukes were interrupted and howled down at most of their recent meetings, the suffragettes came in for even worse treatment. and great many cases of personal injuries have not found their way into the newspapers The pluck of the women in face of hostile crowds has been remarkable. During the recent election at Leicester several girl speak CTS were pelted with rotten eggs and cab bages, but they stood their ground, and one of the women received severe blow in the eye from a carrot thrown by a young Hooligan.
 Strange to say, Miss Christabel Plank hurst has so far escaped injury, in spite of the fact that she hos taken every kind of risk. Her sense of humor has saved her on many occasions, and her musical

From the Boston Transcript.
 A furrier who refuses to be interviewed about his own business is free to affirm, notwithstanding, that there mover were SO many people wearing furs" as there are this season. He attributes this to three causes-prosperity. the enduring quality of a good fur coat or set. and the mild weather in November and De- cember, necessitating many tempting curtailmsnt in prices, which under nor nal conditions might have been forbid dingly heightened. It is to the second factor that he attaches most importance.
