For an added attraction Neil Mack
and Vera Velmer, vaudeville stars of
the brightest lustre, will present "a
Writing Room Wrangle." This is, of
course, a comedy skit, droll in the
extreme, critics say. with a musical
background. Mr.. Mack offers a song or
two in his unique voice, which Miss
Velmar dances in style that is said
to be entirely her own.
The special feature is the offering of
that amusing individual, AL Wohlman.
Mr.. Wohlman is a monologuist, and he
is ranked with the best there are in
his line. '"The Graduate" is what he
calls his line of entertaining song and
story, both of them being new and
novel.
To round out the bill there are Fred
Whitfield and Marie Ireland in "Umphs-

Nothing beyond seeing that she is

San Juan, his face paling, his half
closed eyes revealing the heart of a
skiller."
'Your friend is about to STAY me,

back and feeling Lottie Carts fingers
clutching his hand as If to hold him
clear of temptation. "Not very gall

one life, you know"

when man exclaimed:

He was slowly making for the exit
when shrill voice halted him. He
turned to face the grinning Scissors.
The fellow had his paper and scissors
in hand, but what made Dinsdale's
eyes widen was the great horned owl
perched on Scissors shoulder.

tickle the OWLS head.

greeted Dinsdale.

He held the silhouette before the
Mexican and raised four fingers. The
Mexican gazed with much pleasure at
the likeness. The big hat intrigued
him, and he handed over four bits and
tucked the paper In his shirt Scissors
turned back to the amused Dinsdale
and confided:

an expression of fear.

Hunting for Action.

For two days Dinsdale walked and
rode up end down Deadwood Gulch
and made several short trips to out

were abandoned because Of the Indian
scare, and the few being worked were

Several times he passed San Juan

Kitty the Schemer. 1t was on the
road to Crook City. He was returning
to Deadwood, and she was riding
north in the company Of several men,
She flashed him a smile and bowed
graciously. He asked himself:
''What is the little cat planning now?
Sharp claws"
Another encounter, and one that left
him in poor spirits, was with Mrs.
Colt.
"How's Lottie getting aleng?" he
asked, genuinely pleased to meet her.

day.
She eyed him with disapproval.
"We'll say you've had your visit
here and now" she told him. Don't
call at the house to see Lottie Carl till

Surely other men wear two guns
in Deadwood," he defended
"'Scoundrels do, and men who have
an honest right to wear them. Are

At Lehigh university, Professors
James Long and Henry Ullman of the
chemistry department have succeeded
in making practically nonbreakablel
cigar. The secret is in the binder
made from tobacco leaf stems, which
are first pulverized and made into Al
paper. When used the cigar does not
break easily in the pocket. The idea
will provide for the use of what was
formerly considered waste in the cigar
industry. The cigar makers are al
lowed to use very few chemicals in
their work and one difficulty was to
keep the tobacco stem binder from
tasting like paper.
