Show DO IGflCENT i NEW BILL AT THE ORPHEUM gWORROW NIGHT. X'-tr' i.- Tho raoBt expensive vaudeville show ever brought to Ogden Is the new offering of-fering for the coming week! at the Orphcum, commencing tomorrow night. The management declares the program is tho best ever put together togeth-er for an evening's entertainment and will prove to he the delight of every Orpheum patron next week. James Callahan and Jenny St George, two Irish Americans, who have just returned from Europo where they have been for two years after making mak-ing one of the greatest hits ever scored scor-ed abroad by Americans, present a little classic called "The Old Neighborhood Neigh-borhood " Mr. Callahan represents an old Irishman in a New York home, but with his heart In Ireland, while Miss St. George, a clever harpist and accomplished singer, plays on his emotions emo-tions by interpreting melodies of the old land on her harp, and vocally accompanying ac-companying them. Her breezy manner man-ner and airy comments on men and things of tho past, grate on the old man's feelings and rouse his ire, but immediately some old air and song reminiscent of Ireland is struck up, his feelings are assuaged, and he catches a glimpse of the days that are over. Cleer repartee, bright and funny fun-ny sayings, natural and relevant, make this turn attractive, but what adds to its charm most sensibly is the beautiful beauti-ful staging, which is that of a church with a grovo in the background, the natural humor of the impersonator of the old Irishman and his foil, and tho strong and pretty climax of the playlet. play-let. The Great Asahi. The Great Ashai. assisted by a quintette quin-tette of Japanese, will present an act next week that is said to excel any exhibition ex-hibition of its kind that has ever migrated mi-grated from the "Flowery Kingdom." They perform some wonderfully clever stunts In magic, but their greatest feature fea-ture is the "Human Fountains," a spectacular spec-tacular performance in which Asahl demonstrates his ability to cause a stream of water to spout up almost anywhere from his fan, from any part of tho floor or from the head, hands and feet of his associates. D. J. Andree's Living Statuary. Living statuary is not new to vaudeville, vaude-ville, but bi D J. Audree's studies in china and Ivory tho Orpheum offers something distinctly new to the lovers lov-ers of art. Three comely maidens take part in this act, and their poses are such as to excite the admiration of all lovers of the beautiful. An idea of the scope of this act may be gained through scanning the list of poses they will present. They include "The Roccocco Idyll," "A Vase," "The Ride of the Witches," a beautiful study. "A Mantel Decoration " "Lyra" and "The Chariot." one of tho most difficult poses over seen on the stage. "Bowman Bros." The Bowman Brothers are a couple of Black Fnco Comedians, whose new and original monologue and songs score a hit wherever they appear. Their act is hound to be a pleasing number on tho bill. Temple Quartette. The Temple Quartette is by far tho best musical turn yet seon on tho Orpheum Or-pheum circuit here. Tho members do not try for comedy effects, the act being what Is termed a "stialght" muslcnl act. The singers wear evening even-ing clothes and carry a piano of their own. Their selections are varied, well chosen, and exceptionally well sung. "Lavlna Dewltf. How good a guesBer La Vina De- witt is only time will tell. She comes to the Orpheum next week with her concert company, and incidental to her act she plays upon the cornet and is rated as the champion lady cor-netlsL cor-netlsL She says, that her home Is on the Mexican border and that the talk of the uprising along the frontier is much overrated and that the Mexican is not nearly as savage as he Is rated. Even the now motion pictures will be found to be an entertaining climax to the best bill of the season. oo |
