There is a wild west flavor to the Oakland Orpheum show this week that will tickle anybody who has a fancy for the tang that goes with a life of the plains. No one would have dreamed it possible that a tucking bronco could be used on a stage but there is such a bronco in evidence in Cheyenne Days, the wild west show that holds the boards at the Orpheum this week and this bucking bronco is the real thing without a doubt. He is not the only bit of wild west scenery in evidence. There are cowboys galore on the stage with him. There is a wild west maiden, Miss Lucille Mulhall, who was formerly known as the "queen of the plains" in Texas. Miss Mulhall is a daring expert rider whose father in other days owned one of the great ranches of the southwest. She can ride and throw a lasso as well as the most expert of cow boys and is the most picturesque figure on the stage. The action is fast and furious, while Cheyenne Days is on and the act closest the vaudeville show in a blaze of glroy.

Lee Lloyd, the San Francisco boy who has been winning fame in the east, gathered the bulk of applause yesterday. Lloyd is a character singer, with an abundance of talent in evidence for every thing he does. He has plenty of enthusiasm and "zip" along with his talent and the combination is quite delightful.
