SOME UNUSUAL NUMBERS !
MAKE UP ORPUEUM BILL
Una. Clayton in "Milk" Enforces a
Sociological Lesson Yet Holds Gen
eral Interest—The Bilfords Grace
ful Though a Bit Too Venturesome
The Orpheuni this week presents a
clean, varied anil exceptionally bright
bill. There is some really good singing
and some mimbers that are rather un
usual.
The Bilfords presented their daring
'bicycle act, and the audience, remem
bering the tragedy that was so nearly
enacted when the trio appeared a few
■weeks ago at the Orpheum, showed
plainly that it preferred the graceful,
skillful riding features to the venture
pome climbing of stairs by the cyclist,
when he not only endangered his own
life repeatedly, but also the. lives of
eeveral others. Alfred Bilford got a
generous amount of applause, but every
one drew a breath of relief when the
number ended. The Bilfords are clever
enough to produce an act that can hold
an audience without .jeopardizing life.
It is not easy to produce a skit that
enforces some sociological lessou and
ret holds general interest. Una I'lay
ton, in "Milk," succeeds in doing both.
It is clever and possesses enough genu
ine comedy to sugar-coat the moral les-

ly sewn clothes and when, asking
more, told how she had instructed her
husband in the art until he has at- j
tained the ability to make exceptionally j
line work. She had "day s work
four days a week, but had a familv of

No Need to Climb
It was a very wet nijarlit, and the last
! omnibus was full inside when the con-
I due-tor asked: "Will any gentleman
ride upon the top to oblige a lady?" |
There was no response, so the in-i
quiry was repeated. But again there J
t was no reply.
At last one of the male passengers
! remarked: "Are you sure she is a lady
and not a poor woman?"
"Oh, yes, she is a lady," said the
conductor without hesitation.
"A well dressed lady?" agaiu asked*
the passenger.
"Yes, a thorough well dressed, fash-
i ion, Tide lady." j-aid the dooductor.
- " Then I should think she can afford
to take ;v cab home," said the passen
ger.—London Mail.
Amphibious Forces
The use of naval forces on land is,
of course, by no means novel, but not
j every one knows that it is a direct re
j vergal of the policy adopted in the
I early days of title navy. Under Crom
well's rule army officers were placed in
command of war vessels, and the great
Admiral B!a';e was a colonel in the new
model army before he went to sea.
i Another notable soldier to he placed in
command at sea was General Monk,
first Duke of Albemarle, who justified
j the transference by winning two great
| sea tights against the Dutch.—Dundee
I Advertiser.
Her Advantage
"If you keep on, Willie, you'll soon
'know as much as your teacher," said
| the minister patronizingly.
"Huh!" exclaimed Willie. "I'd
: know as much now as she does if J
j looked at the book all the time like she
| does.'' —Chicago News.
