Orpheum
Marion Bent
- Miss Orford and Her Wonderful Elephants is the headline act. The finale consists in the sensational rescue of Miss Orford from a burning building.
- The name of Pat Rooney has always stood for the very best in stage dancing; those who know anything of theatrical annals for the past generation remember him well. Therefore, there is special interest in the fact that his son, namesake and professional successor is coming to the Orpheum this week with dainty Marion Bent, and the two will dance in a manner that carries on in the best Roonie traditions. The turn has been framed into a skit called, "At the News Stand."
- Lamberti gives impersonations of famous composers, living and dead. Not only does he assume the guise of each, but he plays compositions from their pens.
- Elsie Janis presentsthree protegés of hers, in a sketch written, staged and rehearsed by herself. The trio consists of Val Harris, Rita Roland and Lou Holtz in a sketch called"Three in One."
- Ida O'Day in her original songalogue
- Thomas P. Jackson assisted by Bernard Cavanaugh, in "The Letter From Home," by John Stokes.
- Foreign music halls have long been glad to welcome Carl and Lotty, a pair of most original eccentric dancers. Their work is not so grotesque as it is graceful, however, in spite of its general designation.
- There will be a new set of Edison Talking pictures, orchestra and photoplane
