Charles Kellogg, the celebrated California naturalist whose wonderful c
lilbitlons of unusual vocal powers and fascinating demonstration of IiIb
knowledge of woodlore and woodcraft proved so intensely intoroHting to
'Denver laBt week, comes to the Orpheum this week for one of the most
I novel and notable engagements In the local Orphenm's hihtory

ability by a peculiar gift of nature to communicate with the creatures 'ot
the wilds. Most everyone has read of the primitive method of starting a
fire by rubbing two sticks together hut rare is the man or yoman, or hoy or
girl who has ever seen the thing done. Mr Kellogg produces a (lame on the
stage In this way and does so many other startling feats that both scientists
and the general public never tiro of witnessing IiIb iTerformance With a
voice of marvelous range and high tones which he can nmke vibrate 50,000
tunes a second he extinguishes lights and reproduces the sounds uttered
by birds and beasts In their native haunts.
The naturalist has been an extensive explorer and will show by a series
of excellent stereoptlcon views many interesting scenes found during his
travols In tho- North lands and the tropics.
