ADJUSTMENTS
At the Orpheum

Five acts Of vaudeville marks this
weeks bill at the Orpheum, one of the
best of the present season.
The star act is tho comedy sltt. THE
Late Mr. Allen" written by Mr.. Boze-
man Buleer, once upon a time sporting
editor of The Age-Herald, but now of New
York This sketch is a combination of
| light comedy. pathos and uproarious fun,
the action of the piece is swift and the
lines bristle with snapplness. The act is
well presented. 1t features Miss Ida
Mcmillan. who has the dash and go need
cd for such a clever skit. The rest of the
assistance to the star.
Mcmahon. Diamond and Cemence, fea-
turing Miss Helen Nc Mahon as the scare
crow girl. scored last evening. Miss Nc
Mahon retains all her 1.-the acrobatic abil-
ity in her able characterization of the
scagecrow. The stunt was loudly APP
plauded and altogether the act has the
spicines of broadway combined with
good singing, and exceedingly difficult
dancing by the male member of the team.
Nonsense, just ridiculous, laugh pro-
of Norman and Tooney. James Tooney
who looks anything but n white hope
had the audience with him, and his antics
and salies were met with shrieks of
laughter. Miss Norman had a rather
saucy song entitled Every Other Wom-
ans Husband Looks Better To Me Than
Nine The act is one Of the successes
of the bill and is sure cure for the
blues
Beryl and Elaine Gray, sisters. in fun
and music, appeared in tuneful songs
and sprightly dancing. The act was rather
short but what there was of it was merit
orious.
Sensational balancing at the tip of
flexible pole, causes the audience some
anxiety for the safety of the young wom-
an who risks her self so recklessly Del
more and Oneida are responsible for this
thrilling acs. The pictures were better
than ordinary and this weeks bill is sure
TO please the vaudeville goers of Birmng-
ham. There will be matinees every after
noon at 2:30 o'clock and two performances
every evening. the first at 7;30 and the
second at 2 o'clock.
