at nn: orphi:i-m. Putting -plenty of jatz mu'tr into the popular sonp, "The Sunshine of My Old Kentucky Home," the Misses Sheldon and Dailey finish their act amid a storm of applause from all parta of the house. In general, the Orpheum offers a mediocre bill for the first part of the week. Miss Sheldon at the piano is a ragtime artist, and assisted by her partner they sing several popular songs which pet over the footlights in f ne style. In "Ja Da" they jrive their own version of th KnK, which - i rendered in a modern jazz manner. Robert Sherman and Co.. presenting a comedy playlet entitled "Pinched," gtt many a hearty lauprh, from the audience. Sherman takes tho part of a justice of the peace of Sruith Dakota, who is arrested in a strange town for resisting an oflicer. He Is fined and dismissed by the Midge. Falling to find his way out of the building in which the court 's located, he comes back to find another case in progress, that of a well dressed hypocrite preferring some nasty charge against a girl who looks as If she might be the daughter of Madame X. Plenty of comedy is Introduced. It ends with the Justice of the peace taking the girl back to the country with him. Cameron and Gaylord, two colored comedians, have a singing and dancing along the usual lines. Their dancing scores a hit. The hill is opened by the Aitkens, one a contortionist and the other a oiler skater. Both are clever entertainers, the man twisting himself into such funny shapes that women in the audience may be heard gasping. Mi.vj Aitken is a clever roller skater, she makes all her difficult stunts look easy, which is a true mark of ability. The Marriott troupe of slam bang jugtfh-rs present a novelty monoplane act which pleases the gallery, this act closing the show. O. M. Cotton is tho new leader of the Orpheum orchestra. His presence in the pit adds much to the pleasure of the orchestra number.-;. Universal Current Events show pictures of Mt. Diane; also some ruined French towns at Tin: oi.i i:r. "The Kis Burglar" was presented it the Oliver Sunday; on Saturday there was an alleged musical version of "Chnrlev's Aunt." Sufficient. at Tin: our. "Friendly Enemies." a comedy by Samuel Shipman and Aaron Hoffman, will be seen at the Oliver theat r on next Saturday and Sunday. On of tho principal characters .n the comedy is a sturdy honest type of Germans whom most Americans know as a good citizen, though his age and training unfortunately militate against unbiased judgment of the war situation. Playing opposite him is an enlightened German of a somewhat younger generation. The older German's son joins the American army, but not until the transport on which he sails is sunk by a submarine ! the old man convinced of the barbarous nature of military Germany.

Three great big gala days and the biggest and best show ever seen at the Auditorium. Yes, a big 50 cent and $1.00 show at our regular prices. It would be a great pleasure to us to present these extra big features from time to time at our reg

ular prices, if we can only get your cooperation to come to the matinee, very early in the evening or at o'clock. You can't all get in at 8 o'clock on these extra big shows, so show us today, tomorrow and Wednesday that you will do your part and attend the matinees and we will do ours and eive

you more of the big "three day shows." This grand show is so big and massive that it's beyond description. It must be seen to be appreciated. It cost over a million dollars to produce and has over five thousand people taking part in it THE PLAY Livid and lively as lightning. THE STAR Fiery but unfeeling a- (lint. The most tensely dramatic story of the ages and a William Fox masterpiece of filmdom and the most bewildering of scenic achievements. Don't forget this grand spectacle is here for three days only, Today, Tomorrow and Wednesday and kindly remember our request and we will give you some more great big ones. PROF. SHAMP has arranged a correct musical interpretation for "Salome."

ington, D. C. Mr. Woods has supplied a ca-i of unusual -excellence, containing as it does the names of Harry Lester Mason and Dave Lewi?, who appeared here In the piece last August. in cast, the entire company i the same, with the exception of the wife.

AT TUM AUDITORIUM. Theda Rani, etcher of erotic figures on the moreen, comes to the Auditorium today for a three days engagement. ,to exercise her wiles on Herod -nd those of his circle useful to her in "Salome." William Fox's magnificent production, in which the Jerusalem .of 40 R. C. I.? said to be faithfully reproduced. Old Biblical prints served as a scenic guide, and as to the story, the facts related by Josephm the great Jewish historian, are adhered to. The Dance of the Seven Veils is one of the spectacular and sensational scenes of the picture. Many think Miss Rara Is seen at her best as "Salome" and as for the production. It is one of the biggest that William Fox has ever given the screen. AT Tili: CASTLK. "The Unveiling Hand" is a mighty interesting and entertaining drama of a woman's devotion and a man's faithlessness and cruelty. Shown at the Castle today, it gives beautiful Kitty Gordon an unusual and powerful role. The plot is different, the settings and costumes striking and the action fast-moving. It shows in a startling manner how a woman travels a long, long road before she finds the real love of her life and if another man who finally convinces her of her husband's faithlessness. Irving Cummings as the brutal and .selfish husband and George MacQuarrie as the oth-r man are prominent in her supporting cast. i Tommorrow "Scandal" features Constance Talmadge. coxsTAxrn talma nc.rr: in soenrrv drama When "Scandal" was first published in a current magazine it attracted considerable attention through the adroit handling; 0f what might have been a sensation story. When picturized and chosen as a starring vehicle for attractive Constance Talmadge it makes a real screen hit. This clever little star displays her usual high detrree of ability as the high strung society girl, used to having her own way and when she picks out a man and claims they are married, when they are not, dramatic events follow thick and fast. The bedroom scene is a bit risque hut after that the situations are more amusing than harmful and tho picture furnished good entertainment. Tt has been well cast and handsomely mounted.
