The Orpheum Show.
The Flirting Widow" at the Orphe
um this week presents a number of attractive features. It has a lively cho-
rous and some especially good vcal
numoers. in costumes ef the choVus are many and varied. The plot is well there Is no plot except a far-fetched mixup over a pup and a baby which
borders on the vulgar at times. The leading lady Is an especially bright and vivacious girl, who dances gracfully and sings prettily, but how some of the
other principals ever got on the stage
is far beyond the comprehension of the audience. Go and see it for yourself, however. There is much in the show to enjoy.
