The audience had no reason to regret the
visit to the orpheum, for the management
put on a bill of VHUdevllle calculated to
suit the most critical and foatldlons theater
goer.
Vesta nnd Wentworth, billed n* “unique

and amusing act, and the bonfire of the
kind of vaudeville that makes vaudeville

Late Comers at Grand.
It is “wait until the Intermission or go
’way back and sit down” for all late comers

the management of the popular playhouse,
n response has been made to the appeal of
those who go to the show for other reasons
than to see and be seen, and a rule has been
made and Is being enfnreed that the late ar
rival with tickets for the orchestra must
take a back seat aud wait nntll the first
Intermission.
The rule leaped Into popularity at a single
bound and the visitor at the Grand may
