Hits Fishing Time.
Jake ii. Harrison.)

The redbuds is a-bloomin' out,
The creek is dancin in the sun,
The "silversAdes" is courtin' now,
An in the ripples havin' fun;
While all along the slopin' banks
The jonny-jump-ups smiles at me,
An listen to that mockin bird,
Ats singin' in that willer tree!
I'm bound to go an dig some bait,
An git my fishin' pole an line,
This garden work i'll have TO wait,
Because the weather is too fine
For me to spade, when | can fish
Besides hits kind o. early yit.
An my oil back is nighly broke
From spadin', so | guess III quit
An sa'nter off down on the creek,
An take my fishin' kit along.
That mockin' bird jist thrills my soul
With springtime melody O. song!
An all the grass is nice an green,
The breeze is bloowin' soft an free,
An fishin' erass an mockin' bird
Shore brings my boyhood back
TO me.
know my wife i'll be out done
When she finds out I've run away,
But then you know hits good for
To have a little time to play;
Besides I'm way ahead on work.
! hain't done nothin' Use for years;
Hit seems they hain't no rest at all
In this here busy vale o. tears.
Jist think! A half a day To rest.
An listen to the birds an fish.
They's nothin' better | would want.
II ! was left to have my wish!
An then when go home tonight
An take a string O. fish along.

An sing her little supper song.
But II she don't? Oh. man alive.
I've had her trim me down before.
An jist to feel my freedom once
III gladly stand a little more;
But say-I feel jist like a boy
Ats been off fishin' all day long.
Who's tryin' to excuse hisself
Because he has been doin' wrons.

MOTHER LOVE IN
ORPHEUM PLAY

"Kindling," a beautiful story of
mother love, is the offering at the
Orpheum Theatre this week, and
gives Miss Mabel Brownell excellent
opportunity to show her ability as an
emotional actress, which she does
most delightfully."-.
Tenement life is told throughout the
action of the piece, and the play is
built around the young wife, Maggie
Schultz, who is to become a mother,
but who has kept the secret from her
husband, because he tells her it IS a
crime to bring q life into the world
under such conditions, where it will
grow up a weakiing and curse the
mother who bore it,
Warned by everyone that q child
cannot live and be healthy in the sur
roundings, she becomes desperate.
Told by the woman who lives on the
floor above that in Wyoming a child
can be born and grown up healthy and
strong and that the government will
give land and a shack to anyone that
applies for it, the mother is aroused
by the desire to getsone hundred dol
lars, the sum needed to pay the fare
of two to the West.
Offered a position in the home of a
wealthy WODlh VIII SlG itdAAlo 10
owner of the howell in which she lives,
Maggie plots with Steve, son of Mrs.
Bates, the woman upstairs, to get a
plan of the house, that he might
rob it.
The theft is accomplished. and
Maggie is given a diamond brooch
for her share. This she pawns for
S113. Her husband is told by the
that a woman resembling
his wife had pawned a brooch, and
when she gives him the exact sum
which the pawnbroker told him the
woman got to get tickets for the West
he makes her confess He then learns
his wife is soon to become a mother,
and when she tells him he drove her
to steal by threats to kill her
"kindling," as she calls baby. when
it came into the world. he forgives
her. and, through the kindness and
Of Alice, a rich girl work.

FUN AND MUSIC ON
PROCTOR PROGRAM

Proctors performers provide plenty
of fun this week. A meritorious
musical melange, vivid vaudeville
villain in a mixture of melodrama
and mirth, a pair of German joy
generators and a few other tickling
numbers are the pleasure producers
on the program of the popular play
house.
The musical number Dunbar's Nine
White Hussars. is called the singing
band on the program. and according
to the same source of information
are the most accomplished musicians
in the world. We cannot dispute the
claim-they are wonderful.
Helen Page and company are the
melodramatists. Miss Page is the
leading lady in her sketch. "The I'm
derstudy" Richard Claye. as
George Cameron, a romantic actor,
and Fred Backus. as Bill Crabtree. a
"willyun." make lots of laughs to be
outdone only by Miss Page herself.
RAYMOND and Caverley. the joyful
Germans. are the real side-splitting
number before they even leave their
dressing rooms. AS soon as their
act is announced by the letter X
on the sides of the stage you start
to laugh and although they don't APP
pear or even make noise you con-
tinue to laugh for five full minutes
and then they keep you going.
There's a reason.
Sada Wander and George 0. Stone
steal into the spotlight with sneak
ing bit of humor and step out in
sterling style.
The O'Mearas' graceful, gentle
gliding gradually get the glad hand.
They are topnotchers in the terpsi-
chorean art. AL W. Brown and
Gertie Moulton. in Songs of their
own" are some singers. Grace
Mumm. unlike her name, is laxative
or singative If you might. Bertee

Ned Cork" Norton. as 1.-THE Pull

the best.

add that as the program states they
are reel funny

COOPER
IN MINER SHOW

James E. "Blutch" Cooper presents
his Beauty, Youth and Folly Com
pany at Miners Empire Theatre this
week with his usual success. Cooper
is supported by Tom McRae, known
better to patrons of burlesque as
Smoke" The plot dealing with a
valuable flower known as the Blue
Rose" and blue Rose Whiskey,"
sold by one OF the characters, acted
as a reason for many misunderstand-
ings.
McRae. as q porter, brought fun
without effort and there was not
dull moment while he was in sight,
which was most OF the time. Cooper
appeared as DR.. Crouch. a botanist,
a part which he played for five years
with success, He still has that enor-
nous smile. In a clever medley OF
POPULAR songs, Cooper and his wife,
Mrs. Lucia Cooper, scored a decided
hit, 1t giving them a chance to fire
a few rapid jokes which were we'll
appreciated.
A few of the many hits introduced
through the show were a baseball
recitation and song by Joe Madden,
assisted by the entire company; a
dance by McRae and Ross, the sing
ing Of Dolly and Mabel Webb, violin
solo by "Petronella," toe-dancing by
Katherine Horton and posings by
ia Silva"
Miss Jennie Ross also scored by her
dancing and her earnest efforts to

BLAZING ICE IN
kEENEYPROGRAM

Professor Frederick Andrews with
his Magic Kettle" turns nature topsy
turvy at the Keeney Theatre this
week. What he can't do with his ket-
tie is a caution. It's not the kettle
itself so much as the liquid oxygen
with which the kettle is charged.
This brilliant scientist startles his
audience by lighting cigarettes from
frosty v1por. Then he puts frying
pan on - cake Of ice and fries eggs.
They're good eggs, too. Then for
those who are skeptical, he places a
kettle of water on said cake of ice.
Behold that also is affected and COM
mences to boil. When he's all through
with the ice he burns it up. Less
work to get rid of il that way, he
says
Perhaps the best regular rural
comedy produced here this season is
an original skit called Daddy on the
job" by Glen Bevens and company.
This is a side-splitter for fun, and
there is a little pathos running
through the playlet, also. It re-
wolves around q country girl who
marries a no-account drummer. She
leaves him and comes back to Dad
dy." The drummer follows and gets
lively reception in the rural town.
He leaves hurriedly.
The Harmony Girls are q clever
quartet OF musical entertainers. They
are attractive in appearance and their
musical talents are unquesiionable.
Hattie Fox, a dashing singing come
der ne, right from the Spring Maid, :"
has charm and a magnetism that
wins instant approval. Her efforts
were well received
Roberts, Hays and Roberts are a.
clever triunnvirate. They have a good
line rapid-fire talk and some regu-
lar jokes. They work in a restaurant
scene and that makes things inter-
esting, also.
Besides these five big time" spe-
cialties there are three other acts
which are very good as 'fill-ins." "A
Night with Sculptors" shows some in
teresting works of art, quickly exc
cuted. Meyers and Holden have a
very acceptable song and dance act,
as also have Higgins and Lane. The
bill is one of the best seen at the popu-
lar theatre this season.
