The Aurora Boreclis

The exclusive rights to the stage use
have been secured by Al. G. Field, and
the spectacle can only be seen in con-
nection with his minstrel show at the
Majestic this evening. The scenery
and effects employed in displaying this
novelty are of the most elaborate and
expensive kind, and the combined re-
suits are among the sensational sur
prises of the year. In starting work.
Herr Kliegel had no detailed scientific
analysis of the real Aurora Borealis
upon which to base his experiments.
Even to-day the scientists have not
fathomed the actual processes by which
the real Aurora Borealis is produced.
They are all agreed that it is caused
by some kind of an electrical discharge
in the atmosphere. This in turn is
brought about by magnetic influence
emanating from the sun. When the
PARTICLES of the earth s atmosphere are
thus charged magnetically the electro
lyzation causes such an arrangement of
the light rays that many of the spec
trum colors are visible. Thus it is that
the crimson and gold, apple green, sea
blue, violet, purple haze, mellow yellow
and azure blue form the magnificent
color arch, or band, or corona, or cur
tain, that is known as the Aurora
Borealis. Adv.%

At the Orpheum

No comedy stars on the stage to-day
are so distinctly American and so gen.
orally popular as Flo Irwin and her
sister, May. And, while neither of
these artists has appeared on local
vaudeville stage up to the present
time, we are promised laughing SEN
sation in the presence of Flo Irwin and
her clever company at the Orpheum
this week. Miss irwin will, of course.
capture the headline honors of the bill
but there are three other acts to be
presented by long. ago favorites, who are
sure to have just as much drawing pow
er as the initial appearance of the ir-
resistible Miss Irwin. So, taken as a
whole, the combination for the popular
theatre this week looks pretty promis-
ing. Flo Irwin will have the assistance
of capable cast in presenting her sue
cessful comedy vehicle called "The
Lady of the Press from the pen of
Edgar Allen Woolf. Old favorites of
the bill will be our winsome Nonette.
the "Gypsy Violiniste.
We liked her so much when she was
here before that she was returned the
next season and then we attended a
tea for her at stage reception. Then
Nonette went abroad, but the war or
something else was kind enough to send
her home. Then there are the Courtney
Sisters, 'nuf sed. They have an en-.
tirely new repertoire of songs and
comedy and they will undoubtedly be
as popular as ever. Also the Keatons,
with "Buster," are coming back.
" Buster is said to have grown to be
quite boy now, but is as mischievous
as ever. Father still says "he's got
to behave and their famous slap-stick
comedy is the result. Adv
