~ THEATER TONIGHT

There are tramps and tramps and
then again some more tramps. We've
heard of tramps who were downright
buns, and we've been on speaking
terms with tramps who were tramping
for their health, or. pleasure or for
what they could get out of 1t, but in
all instances they were species homo.
This morning we had occasion to
II. axe an addition to our former list
Itf tramps when we were introduced
to the Misses Ordell and Nignon Moore
two chic and demure young ladies, who
are bumming their way from San
Francisco to Chicago on a wager of
$500.
Several weeks ago these two captiv-
ating and amiable tramps expressed
a desire to 60 to Chicago. Their un-
Gle, H. E. Hall, of San Francisco, re-
fused to put up 'sl dinero' for COM
Portable trip across the continent.
"Oh, very well," murmsrea Ordsll,
"then we'll bum cur way"
eyes," chimed in Mignon, "we'll
tum our way"
Give hundred that you can't bum
your way to Chicago by March first, "
retorted Uncle.
you're on,' the both cried, and the
bet was made. And that is why they
are here in Ell Centre, bumming their
way east to Chicago, via Ell Paso and
New Orleans.
Both of them are artists in one way
OF another, Ordell in poses of famous
paintings, and Nignon in repertoire Of
Oriental dances. They have been en-
gagged by the management of the l.. &
6 theater to perform there this even
ing. Upon their arrival in Chicago,
Mignon will go into musical comedy
and Ordell will accept a position as
an artists model.
