The five Cycling Auroras, " who j have been a teaturo of the Tower Circus In Dngland, come to tills country coun-try to appear fn tho Orpheum houses, and those who have seen them abroad, sny thev are to be classed among tho most s'.clllfi'l anil daring cyclists on the stage or in thO ring When they appeared in Blaci pool, England last month the "Spectator" of that city ssi'd. 'The easiest things Uuy do make you wonder, but their mora difficult ones mako you gasp " - They are skillful and daring trick cyclists, and one if their most startling startl-ing feats Is when four of the company, while on their Avhoel", support a platform plat-form upon which other members of the troupe perforin surprising evolutions. evolu-tions. An act that can easllv bo called the act bcautltul is that of T. W. Fckert and Emma Berg They present pre-sent a musical offeilng called "BIos-toms," "BIos-toms," Miss Berg has an excellent soprano voice and Mr Eckert Is a cleer pti former upon the piano with his Imitations of stringed instruments.

This stand is conducted by the young Iaiiy in the trio, tho other two impersonating im-personating football players return'ng from a gamo. Tho three meet and the fun begins Most of the acrobatic tricks lntroducod aro said to be new and effective, and tho conclusion of the merriment is a surprise and a distinctly novelty. "A Whirlwind of Joy" is the description de-scription ghen to an act which will be seen for tho ffrst time here next Monday matinee. Kennedy, Do Milt and Kennedv will have this as their offering Miss De Milt is a clever singer and comedian and the Kennedys Ken-nedys are funmakers of a high degree They will have a lot of bright musical numbers and will also show their skill as dancers. Ernest Yerxa and Adelo, Man and Woman who are Wiled as .Phenomenal .Phenom-enal Posturers, have a better act than the usual run of such offerings, The curtain rises on, a beautiful and artistic artis-tic sotting. The woman is discovered standing In tho conler of a platform. She Is draped in a dark plush gown which she gradually opens, displaying display-ing the man in an athletic pose, which makes a boautltul picture in front of a golden green backing. The man then clasps his hands and passes them ocr, his head and down his back, and then passes his body through them twice. The most novol trick is the finish, when tho man who Is nearly twice the size of the woman, performs on a horizontal bar which, instead of being supported by the usual post, is supported on the woman's head. New motion pictures and a fine new Orchestral program will complete one of tho best bills of the season. - |
