day, Madame Anna Won Hoff-
man. soprano. singer of note in
grand and light operate selections.
1t was only through fortunate cir
cumstance that this talented artistic
was obtained for a limited engage
ment and is without a doubt the most
expensive and high class offering of
the kind ever presented in local
picture theater
In Oklahoma City, where Madame
Won Hoffman recently appeared at the
Empress theater, she surprised and
charmed the most severe musical crit
les of the capital city. Many pro-
nounced her work and style similar
to that of Madame Homer, which
to the ordinary music lover would
seem fulsome praise. Her first group
of songs today will include the famous
Swiss Echo song by Carl Eckart.
Selections from famous grand and
light operas will be sung during the
engagement, which closes Tuesday
night. There will be no extra charge
for this added attraction, 1t is lust n
little treat from the Majestic theater
TO Its patrons.

these are and is apt to dress in the
very best business style he can afford
and in conformity with the style linn

he inhabits. What would be quite
the proper thing on Wall Street in
New York might be deemed an al

the formality of cutaway or full dress

NIT it-most of all to his women folk
he is little at sea as to Just what

The proper cutaway for formal aft
ernOOn wear has two buttons, a well
defined waistline, full skirts and a

are braided and unbraided and have
peaked and notched lapels-these are

GERMANS CONTINUE TO
ATTACK VERDUN


Paris July 12.-Although the battle
in Picardy, which has been raging
for ten days, is absorbing most of the
attention of the German commanders,
they were able today to revive the
struggle at Verdun, making some adj
vance there and delivering several
sharp local attacks in the Lorraine
and Vosages sections, probably to con
ceal the transfer of troops to the
Somme region.
Having maintained their grip on the
Thiaumont work, the Germans now
are trying to push forward their left
flank Their artillery was busy all
day yesterday, all night and this
morning. Then the bombardment
ceased, making way for the infantry.
One coluGn sought 10 work it's way

ity Of Fleury village, but it melted
away before the French fire, as did
