Madam Gertrude al orpheun.

Mystifying, baffling. Madam Cert
rude, heads the bill at the Orpheum
this week, which is one of the best
ever offered to the theatregoers of this
city. 1t is a bill that deserves a
capacity audience at every perform
ance this week. Madam Gertrude is,
of course, the headliner and she de-
serves the honor This mystifying
woman defies laws and psychology.
She permits her eyes to be blind fold
ed in order that she can concentrate
her mind more securely on the article
to be described, she then answers ques-
tons, not necessarily written on paper,
but frequently out of the very minds
of the persons who are attempting to
attract her attention. Her performance
is interpreted with the serious and
the light, the grave and the gay. She
is marvellous in giving the numbers Of
missing articles and analyses every
question carefully There is no way
to explain the phenomena Of her act.
One must see it. She stands foremost
in her profession. The other acts on
the bill are, Becker & Grant, two
laughable comedians; Gerald & George
in their bubbling playlet overlooking
with song, and Maybelle Godfrey, a
dainty singing and dancing coined
ienne. The pictures are of the usual
high class.

Of inquiry is to be held at Lennon to
investigate the death, on June Z, last,
of Mrs. Morris Lynch, wife Of a Per-
kins county homesteader, whose death
followed an injection, supposedly OF
enema, but which was found to con-
tain a strong solution Of carbolic acid.

in charge, finding her bowels were
not acting properly, instructed the
nurse in charge to administer the enc
ma as an injection. Immediately aft
er the injection, the woman cried, 1T
burns" and lapsed into unconscious
ness, dying the next day. A small
quantity Of the medicine remained In
the bottle and was found to contain
carbolic acid.
The testimony brought out at the
hearing did not place the blame for the
accident. No action was taken at the
time Of the woman's death, but lately
her husband and relatives took the
matter lib In an EFFORT to place the
blame for the accident, but 1t is fear
ed 1t will be impossible at this time e
assure snfactent evidence against any
one
