taken the leap. Now Tets see
how he gets along.
NM URPHY sure is game little
iVg harp when he gives away so
much weight to his clever
opponent Tommy used to be
able to make 100 pounds without
much trouble, so it is easy to
figure what handicap he will
be under.
TIVE saw them out here in a
w 20 round setto nearly two
years ago and we realized
then that Murphy did not figure
even at that distance. But give
him 80 rounds in which to turn

the high class performers like the
idea of the tough grind in this

AT THE AUDITORIUM.
onaip Has Crowds Guessing.

The talk of the town today is Onaip and his wonderful floating piano myS- tery. It was amusing yesterday to hear the various theories advanced as to how this feat Is accomplished. but so far it remains unsolved. What makes this act so wonderful is the fact that everything is done openly and with all the lights on the stage full on, and even the scenery raised and the bare walls of the stage are shown to conceal nothing. The piano, which Is actually seen to float and revolve in midair, is regulation upright instru- ment weighing about $50 pounds, and the player who performs on the inStru- ment is a man weighing about 150 pounds, this making the combined weight of 1000 pounds, and to see Onaip make this float in the air like ten. Today is the last chance to see this $10.0o0 mystery. as Onaip goes direct from here to New York
 This act has puzzled millions; it will surely puzzle you. as it is the only one of its kind in the world, and Onaip is the sole owner and originator of the floating piano. Can you figure it out
 The photoplay part of the programme IS very strong today and both com edy and drama are equally divided. The two-reel Eclair feature. The Faith Healer, is one of the strongest dramas ever presented on a screen; the plot is unique and the different characters are wonderfully acted by the famous Eclair players. There are two good comedy films and both on entirely diff ferent lines, a Powers comedy, Bozo Arrives, is a western of a new type, and the funny imp film A Spicy Time is one long succession of laughs. Come and be entertained, mystihed and amused in the coolest theatre in this vicinity

BoRaow A BABY.


 (viee President and Mrs Msrshall have borrowed baby to cuTe them or the bIues.) Brother, if you're feeling blue. If your liver's working badly. If you've big bills overdue, And your cares weigh on you sadly: If the whole world seems to be As unlovely as it may be. Don't sit moaning peevishly- Go and borrow someone's baby. Sister, don't sit down and sigh, Thinking Fortune treats you mean
 ly; Get baby to supply
 All the needs you feel so keenly; If your heart is sad today. You may be serene tomorrow, All your troubles charmed away By the baby that you borrow. Brother, rid your foolish heart Of the sorrows that you cling to-; If you have child to sing to; You may find a new delight To succeed your bitter signing, If you'll walk the floor at night And are busy lullabying. With an infant in your arms You may find that l1fe's a frolic; You'll discover hidden charms When the youngster howls with
 collie; All your cares will quickly fit And attempt to comfort 1t
 With your hopeful cooing-maybe -S. E. Riser, in the Chicago Record
