COMING TO THE ORPHEUM
The present bill at the Orpheum will continue today and tomorrow. All next J week vaudeville will hold sway at the East State street playhouse. New shows will be offered on Monday and Thursday afternoons. ' After the number of former legitimate attractions that the Allardts have provided at the Orpheum at the regular admission scale this season, the announcement of almost any road shows would not create the stir that would have followed such a statement three months ago. However, when Manager Hankinson announces the booking of "The Flower of the Ranch" for the first half of the next week the public Is ready to sit up and query "What next?" This attraction was booked at another local playhouse, at dollar and a half prices, some weeks ago, but the

RAH! FOR MULLIGAN
Captain Mulligan's bowling quintet from the offices of the Northern Indiana Gas company invaded Cox's alleys
last night with a host of followers
where they attacked those maples in great style, handling Charley Long's
All-Stars a whitewash in one, two,
three fashion, not even given them look in.
Mulligan's pinraen threw a surprise into Charley Long's aggregation by
taking three straight games, for Charley thought he would be able to pull
out one game to the good at least. Bu
they could not overcome the Mulligan
squads' fierce attack, and went home
satisfied that they will get another op
portunity to turn the trick next week
