Some intimate details of the animal

shown in the films. killer whales, pen

There are many antics of the whales
and penguins to laugh at and there is
much pathos in the farewell of Cap

BIJOU OFFERING
FOR THE week IS
We'll RECEIVED

Eddie Murray was not missed last
ntght. in the cast of Confusion. the
new bill produced by the Spaulding
Musical Comedy Company a. the BIZ
;ou theater. IL was great relief TO
sit through performance where the
laughs we're won by funny situations
and witty lines instead OF suggestive
ness and vulgarity.
George Spaulding, in the Juvenile
lead. as Mortimer NurnbIeford, made a
handsome husband for Miss Newlin.
who took the part Of Mrs. Mumble-
ford. a bride of three months. Spauld.
ing Is a versatile actor and was just as
uopular with his audience In the new
role as he was in the character OF a
comedian.
Each member of the cast portrayed
their role so well that it would be.
hard TO single them out and say who
did the best. Miss Newlin made
nretty bride and enacted her part well.
James Guilfoyle, as the uncle of Mrs.
Mumbleford, made much better inn
preston on the audience as the foxy
grandpa uncle of Mrs. Mumbleford
than he has in any character he has
vet assumed. Guilfoyle is good actor
when he has the right vehicle.
Miss Geraldine Wood, who has not
had much opportunity heretofore to
show what she could do. convinced
her audience that she was an actress
of no mean ability. when she appeared
as the old maid aunt OF Mr.. humble
ford. Miss Wood is particularly clever
in her new role.
The ingenue of the company, Miss
Emma Audelle. played pretty char
acter in the role of maid and the
secret wife, of the butler. Paisley Noon.
Miss Audelle Is charming young
woman and she was unusually pretty
in maids costume.
IT isn't everv day In the theatrical
world that a fellow gets the opportu-
nifty to jump into one OF the leading
mems place as did Paisley Noon when
Eddie Murray left the company Noon,
whose speciality is singing and dane
ing. went on last night as though he
had played the part all his life and
received as many laughs for his in
depreciation of the part as profess
sional comedian could have asked for.
In the musical numbers there are
some pretty songs and dances. Hat

Sensational Suicide.

KANSAS CITY, MO, Feb. 10.-A
woman, about 2S years old, evidently
a former resident of Atlanta, Ga,
committed suicide here Tuesday
morning by jumping off the roof of
the r. A. Long Building, fifteen sto-
ries high Her features were badly
mangled.
Hundreds of pedestrians saw the
woman hurting through the air. and
two men narrowly escaped serious
injury by being struck by the falling
body.
The only clew to her identity is her
shoes. which were purchased from the
Carlton Shoe Company, Of Atlanta.
They were black latent leather high
shoes with bull xii uppers. and bore
the number ''25-S- 1882" There were
no marks on any of her clothing that
could serve as aids in the work of
identifying her.
The girl was later identified as
Elmer Timmernan, Kansas Citv
stenogra pher, believed at one time TO
have lived in Atlanta.
30 lar Ss can ne learned, no one
about the building had ever seen the
woman before. She entered the lobby
only few minutes before her man
gled body was found living on the side
walk, and entered the elevator that
runs to the roof, fifteen stories abo ve
the sidewalk. A she entered the ele
Vator the operator noticed that she
appeared downcast, but she said moth

to climb The stairs to the roof. Then
she turned 10 the elevator boy and
said:
Good bye"
The boy thought nothing of the oc-
currence and sent his car TO the lower
floors, leaving the woman alone. She
climbed to the roof. and stood for a
moment sharply outlined against the
sky. Then she raised her hands above
her head ana leaped.
