Remarkable Growth.

The growth and expansion Of the Or
pheum circuit of theatres has been in
every way remarkable. This latest move
makes II the most important and far
reaching chain in the world although pre-
viously 1t had already become the largest
in point Of numbers. Just year ago the
new OTDheum theatre was dedicated in
San Francisco, and this house stands a
a monument to the extraordinary activ
ity and ability of the theatrical generals
who control this circuit. The new house
stands on the same site as the original
Orpheum, where less than a decade ago
il was the only possession Of this cOrpOT-
alton which now operates, owns and con-
trolls thirty-nine first-Class vaudeville
houses in this country and has done more
TO bring this popular form Of entertain
ment up to It's present high standard here
than any other factor.
OF all American managers, Martin Beck
is unquestiOnably the one best qualified
TO achieve this glObe-encircling chain of
vaudeville houses, for he has made
careful study of conditions and needs
abroad as well as at home, Each year,
during the past five, he has devoted at
least four months to travel and observa-
ton I'm Europe and in the Orient, and
his popularity extends around the world
In addition to this, the OrpheUm already
has its branches established with repre-
sentatives In London. Paris. Berlin and
St. Petersburg, all thoroughly familiar
with the conditions locally, and working
IN close cooperation with their general
manager here.
Butt in Prominence.
on the other hand, this transaction
brings into prominence here for the first
time, Alfred Butt one of the youngest
/ and most able English theatrical man
ayers who has heretofore confined his
activities TO England, where he Is well
known. For several seasons the fashion
able Palace theatre in London has been
under his personal direction, and the
prosperity and vogue it has enjoyed dur
/ ing that time has been so unprecedented
as to become a part Of stage history in
| the British metropolis
| BY the arrangement just entered into
| between Beck and Meyerfeld and Mr.
Butt, the latter takes rank as the fore
most vaudeville director Of Europe, by
directing the foreign end of this around
/ the-world enterprise.

Information coming from local stock

which will startle the amusement world,

Beck's ambition. a vaudeville circuit
around the world.
Through a transfer of stock that will
take place upon Mr.. Butts return TO
London, the details of which were viz
