NEW BILL AT THE
 AUDITORIUM TODAY.

An act unlike anything ever seen at this house comes for the last half of this week. It is the Washer Bros. the famous Liliputian boxers. These di minutive demonstrators of the fistic art are one riot of laughter all the time they are on the stage. While they are exceptionally clever boxers, their size (their combined height not reaching six feet) makes their work xcreamingiy funny. The Washer Bros are about 35 years of age and about S6 anches in height. Bring the children to see these funny little men.
 A iaughabie farce of merit Is offered by those sterling artists, C. Nelson Haight and Laura Dean. who present A Misfit Meeting. This is a farce abounding in funny situations and bright lines.
 Beatrice NJ. Shannon. the Irish col leen. is a clever vocalist from across the water who makes a speciality of the famous ballads and songs of Erin.
 A most praisewOrthy set Of photo pisys are being shown all being fea lures. The Mission in the Desert. western film that is out of the ordi- nary in the fact that it does not deal in cowboys. galloping horses, etc. but tells a story of romance among the missions of old Arizona. A problem play by the famous feliaae Co. in he style they handle so well. entitled Til Death Do Part. with Marion Leonard in the leading role. The Than,houser CO is represented by unique story entitled Checkmate which is worthy Of their trad smsrk.
 Better than The Fan of Troy. This ss what the manufacturers of the fla nous military picture. Grenadier RO- land claim. This picture cost s20,000 and employs 1.5oO people. It depicts the historical siege of Moscow and Ma poieon's defeat and retreat. This is positively the greatest military picture that has been produced up to the pres ent date. It will be seen at the Audi torium for two days only. on June 2S- 2a. Wedn ssday and Thursday. Re member the date and get in early. be- cause a record breaking crowd is ex- pected.
