''My Best Olrl"
There is probably no show on the
road this season that has so completely
j justified the predictions of the New
\ ork and Boston critics' declarations
of success as has "My Best Girl,"
. which comes to the Majestic theatre
| to-day for matinee anil evening per
formances with V'ictor Morley in the
| stellar role. Glowing praises were
1 showered on this lively, inerrv musical
1 comedy when it opened at the Park
theatre, in New York, and during its
j extended run there it became one of
' the striking successes of Broadway.
Scarcely less marked was its triumphs
in Boston when later it went to thai
citv for a run. Since then it has left
a chain of merry whistling of its bright
melodies, anil chuckles over its bright,
witty fun through all the cities it ha*
plfcyed. adv.
"Every woman"* ,
Much interest has been aroused dur
ing the past three years by the pro
duction of a play in New York bearing
the strange title. " Everywoman." Th*>
newspapers and magazines have de
voted columns of discussion to til 4*
dramatic novelty which is labeled 4, a
dramatic spectacle." Added attention
was attracted to " Every woman'' at
the time of its first production by the
fact that its author, Wisher Browne, n
New York newspaper man, who hail
labored upon it for years, died on the
morning of the .lav' of the first per
formance of his play which have re
alized for him the ambition of a life
time. " Every woman " made an instan
taneous hit. It rau continuously in
New York for nearly two years, has
since been translated into other lan
guages, and only Inst season made 'i
sensational Success at the Drury Lane
theatre, London. l>uring the time that
it was running at the Herald Square
theatre. New York, a version of the
play in Yiddish was being performed
at an Kn«tside theatre in New Y'ork,
where it.achieved a run of over one
hundred and fiffcv performance#
Browne's widow and children' who
were left penniless, have been made
affluent by the success of "Every
woman. Over three million people
have already witnessed the perform
ance. Henrv W. Savage is sending
here his onlv production, containing
several originators of the various rotes
and it will be disclosed at the Majestic
theatre, Monday afternoon and even
ing- ndv.
• The Traffic"
I'he new four-act drama by Rachael
Marshall, "The Traffic," which is
coining to the Majestic next Tuesday
and \\ ednesday, with Wednesday'mat
inee, with Bess San key in the leading
role, is by all dramatic measurements
and all stage precedents an astonish
ing production. To begin with, "box
ofli.'e policies" which require a con
ventionally happy ending, have beeu
I boldly ignored by author and pro
ducer. The piece itself is well kni',
| properly balanced and gripping con
secutive sequence of action. Its dia
logue bristles with wit and humor, it
I surges with passion, storms with ange"
and gloom with .1 pathos as tender as
heartache. adv.
"Help Wanted"
Dorothy Walter, who plays the lea ),
ing character role in "Help Wanted,"
•lack Lait's comedy drama of the bus'-
ness world, which comes to the M
.jostic tiieatre, Thursday evening, has
iiad a varied experience in delineating
"types.' In "The Ureat N'sme,"
"The Lottery Man," "The Parisian
Model" and "That's Wrong," she
i was cast in role* which gave he: ever*
| opportunity to display her remarkable
powers of characterization. adv.
At the Orpheum
j Irene Franklin, the girl who caused
the jubilee in Harrisburg this we.»k,
and all the splendid Keith acts group
ed with her, will leave the Orpheum
after to-day's performance. For next
week the management is announcing
i the second appearance of Frederick
| Bowers, who, with his great variety
! act of song, dance and beauty, will
] head a bill of rare interest and much
! clever talent. Most everybody will re
! member that Mr. Bowers and his com
! pany opened the season at the Or
pheum two years ago, or even a bet
ter reminder is that song hit, "There's
a Girl in the Heart of Maryland,"
i that Mr. Bowers introduced to Har
| risburg. Others came to the Orpheum
I and sang the song after him, but no
! body ever succeeded in scoring the
! hit that Mr. Bowers did. He has a
i voice of remarkable volume and sweet
! ness and can sing a ballad like few
others can.
J With him will be one of the pret
tiest girls on the vaudeville stage and
i he will also have some expert dancers.
Of headline importance also will be
j"The Mystic Board," just a pretty
: yellow canary of the every day type,
and he will imitate the songs and call*
; of other birds to harmonize with his
master who plays the violin. He will
| also sing and warble obligatos to se
i lections that the orchestra plays, such
as "Mendelssohn's Spring Song,"
; "The Glow Worm," etc. "The Mystip
! Bird" is interesting and the only act
| of the kind ever presented in v'aitde
; ville. The act is a positive sensation,
i Also the Bison City Four, at last! This
| time they are coming for sure, for
j thev are positively in America, funnier
I than over 'cause they were so glad to
get back, and they will undoubtedly
I give a splendid account of themgelve's
j next week with great hannony in new
I songs as well as their new comedy
I antics. There will be the usual seven
Keith hits on next week's bill and all
of them are varied and entertaining.

At the Colonial
| An entire change of program in the
latest releases of licensed films are
! being shown at. the Colonial daily in

vaudeville bill, that as usual, ie

' ville novelties appearing there for the
last half of the week are really un
usual in merit and are clever and di
j verting throughout. The roster in
i eludes Leonard and Arnold, young man
i and woman, in a pretty staged song,
dance and patter skit; Dorothy Curtis,
dainty comedienne, and Burke and
Walsh, two comedians, in songs and
patter. adv.
