AT THE THEATERS
Vaudeville at the' Orphearn.' v
Stella Mayhew was to have been
the musical marvel at the Orpheum
for the current week, but her sparring
partner joinea tne array just as the
Martin Beck season was to open, and
the journey of the fair and melodious
Mayhew was interrupted. However.
v-ari jorn ot the Metropolitan and
other operas consented to oblige, and
does so with much finish. It may be
questioned it Mr. Jorn can sing a coon
song with the verve and snap that
Miss Mayhew would (five it, but it
may also be doubted if site could get
away with "Celeste Aida," or Tonio's
lament from 'T Pagliacci" as neatly
as does the debonnair tenor. Admit
ting all this, a thought still lingers
that perhaps the Sunday customers
would have been quite as well pleased
had the champion coon 'song shouter
been on the bill. For Mr. Jorn, let
us say he has a good. tenor voice, of
full, rich tone, velvet smooth in
quality and ravishing in its pianissimo
tone, the latter being, finely exhibited
in "1 Hear You Calling Me," his clos
ing number. His operatic selections
were also well presented, but the au
dience gave its warmest approval to
Deiro, who operates a one-man jazz
band with a "piano-accordeon."

Boone'fcscapes Death by
Timely Arrival pf Police
Early Sunday morning Mrs. J. B.
'Rawlings, 324 North Seventeenth

gas, and on tracing it to, the room of
Howard Boone, special watchman for

in bed unconscious, with the burner
open and the room filled with gas.
Police Surgeon Callaghan was called
and with a pulmotor brought Boone
back, to earth. As the wjndows of the
