Wonderful Headliners on Orpheum
 RiIl

Three great headliners, each stand Ing at the top of it's special line of vaudeville entertainment, are offered at the Orpheum this week, the bill be- ing the most expensive that was ever placed in that theatre. The extra book ing Is the result of the two visits this week of Jake Wells to Birmingham. and his personal efforts over long dis tance telephone with New York city. He guarantees the bill this week to be the best that the Orpheum has ever had
 The masterpiece of musical acts is coming this week in the Six Musical Cut tvs, which ranks as the greatest of the Kind in vaudeville. It is to the brass musical world what the Boston Fad cites were to the symphony world, and this one act of six performers costs per week as much as did the Fadettes with 22. The audience will be treated to music on score of different instru- ments, and each selection is played by soloists who are ranked as great musi- clans In vaudeville. The ensemble num- bers will have six musicians In each and the audiences may expect to hear music such as they have never heard in Birmingham before in vaudeville The act is also handsomely staged and beautifully costumed. Too many words of praise cannot be spoken of the act which stands as the musical headliner of every bill on which 1t appears no matter what tho price of admission.
 One headliner is not enough, how ever, and so Mir. Wells secured a sec- ond one, which is but little less ex- pensive than the other, and which promises to be as great sensation. The act Is the Three Emersons. said to be the most sensational acrobatic act in vaudeville. The team carries half a car load of special scenery. with a swimming pool; a gallery and other effects far above those ordinarily car ried by vaudeville acts. The aerobats themselves are wonderful with all novelty stunts of the first water" There Is world of refreshing com edy-the genuine article-in the act and the audiences gasp with astonish- ment one minute and laugh with pleas ure the next.
 Healthier No. 3--for there are three of them--is T. IT. MacConnell. booked as the President of the 13 Club. His is novelty surprise comedy mono logue. It is said to be one of the great est laugh producers in vaudeville, and the audiences have treat number three in store for them during the 20 min utes that this comedian is on the stage.
 A beautiful woman and a clever boy star in "A Wild Filtration" will be presented by Brooke and Harris The scene of the Irritation Is carried on to the tune of much music and several song numbers. It is dainty bit of cleverness, with special stage settings, curtains and other effects to make it attractive. And beautiful woman is in the act. A s2s.
 The other offering of the week is Al Harrington and His Dog, and some- thing different and out of the ordinary can be expected. The performer Is up to the minute in cleverness. and the dog is said Ito be there with the goods"
 These five acts make this. it is claimed. the greatest comedy and musi- cal offering that Birmingham has ever had at the price of admission, and in quality it is as good as is seen In New York or any other vaudeville center
 The motion pictures are of more than ordinary cleverness this week, the film house having promised some extra subjects The music at the Orpheum is always a feature. The house Is ex- celently ventilated, with a score o. large windows on all sides and many electric fans running al all times The house Is also safe from fire, with many exits, and all on the ground floor.
 There is matinee daily at 2:so and two performances af 7:30 and o'clock. Majestic-Wild African Lions
