Under r^ew Management and With
Everything New But the Name, “the
Orpheum Theatre Opened the Win
ter Season on Monday.
It will be the policy of this theatre
during^ this season to present vaude
ville and picture plays of “The Bet
ter Kind”. The admission price this
season will be all seats 10 cents, child
ren at the matinees 5 cents. Ladies
and children are cordially invited to
attend all performances and will be
shown polite attention.
This week’s bill includes Hendrix
and McMahon, a very clever pair of
singing -and dancing comedians, and
Ed La Moss, “contortionist,” and new
pictures changed daily. On Thursday
(tomorrow) there will be a change of
vaudeville when Harry and Mabel Mar-
tine take the place or . the present
team, and new pictures will be shown.
Mr. Kessnich, the local manager, de
sires to impress upon the theatre-going
public'of this city who are desirous of
seeing good, clean vaudeville and plc-
tures at tht small admission pnce
charged, that tne acts that will be pre
sented at this theatre will be of the
highest order, and above all things
there will not be permitted to play at
this theatre acts who depend o*i vul
garity to carry them through or get a
laugh.
This city like all others is in need
of a theatre just like the Orpheum
where the amusement seeker will find
an hour’s amusement for a dime, and
with just a little support from the
public there will be better and more
acts seen at this theatre.
For the coming week’s bill for the
first half another good bill will be
shown here Leo St. Elmo, *the German
musical genius, and Billy Hill, with a
good team will comprise the bill.
There are four complete shows
given dally at the Orpheum, matinee
daily at 4:30 and the evening shows
at 7:30, 8.: 30 and 9-30.

AliE INFIDELS
By Associated Press.
Washington, Sept. 27.—“The Ameri
can republic Is doomed to destruction
because the majority of its college pro- ^
fessors are infidels.”
Such was the prediction made by
Rev. Dr. S. T. Willis, ^>resident of the
Virginia Christian College of Lynch
burg, Va., speaking before the thirty
fourth annual convention of the
Christian Missionary society of Mary
land, Delaware, and the District of
Columbia last night.
“Unless the college professors of
the present day” declared Dr. Williis,
“Lay more stress upon the teachings
of Christianity Instead of sending out
into the world students and graduates
with a great store of book learning
and little-or no conception of what an
upright life should be, this republic
will go the way of the PYench republic,
the Roman republic and all others
where lack of morals, un-Christian
living, an improper understanding of
a man’s 'obligations to his neighbors
and similar deteriorating elements
have held sway.”

Israel Altschul of this place.
When neighbors heard of the find
a small gold rush was started. They
began working in the vicinity and in
washing out the sand found several
.small nuggets.
The gold was probably washed
down from the mountains years ago.
