Watson's Orientals
"Beef Trust," Billy Watson's new
burlesque show, called the Orientals
and described'as the last word in bur
lesque enteftainment, is the attraction
at. the Majestic this afternoon and
evening. The performance is divided
into two parts with attractive vaude
ville specialties introduced at advan
tageous points during their presenta
tion. The opening skit is called "The
Joy Line" and the closing burlesque
the "New Krausmeyer's Alley," with
the humorous "Philip And the unctu
ous Orogan and the typical Cop" in a
series of new complications that are
said to keep the spectators in convul
sions of laughter. Billy Spencer, the
original Grogan. is in the cast and
Krausmeyer will be played by the well
known German comedian, Jules Jacobs.
Assisting them in the fun-making are
some of the best known people of the
burlesque stage, including Gertrude
Sommers, Bettina Sheldon, George H.
Thurston, Ray Levitt, Bert Bertrahd
and Sylvia Brody, and there is a chor
us of twenty-five agile, pretty girls.
Mr. Watson is said to have provided a
remarkable scenic and costume equip
ment for his new show and the enter
tainment throughout is described a s
perfectly in keeping with the best
standard in this division of theatricals.

At the Orplieum
"Tricked" is the title of a comedy
surprise sketch that appears at the
Orpheum this week as one of fine
Keith hits supporting Captain Louis
Sorcho and his company of, deep sea
divers, in the most interesting and
most educational vaudeville attraction
Harrisburg has seen. "Tricked" is an
interesting drama that calls in three
genuine surprises. A burglar seeking a
valuable ruby in the safe of a mil
lionaire is accosted by a man whom the
burglar suspects to be the millionaire
himself. After the departure of the first
burglar, an attractive young woman
appears on the scene, declaring her
self to be the millionaire's wife.
Just who is who at this point of ac
tion is a big question and thie interest
thickens until the plot is unwoven.
Clever players, interesting lines and
unusual situations make "Tricked" a
splendid feature. Pretty Dolly Connel
ly in new songs; Englis and Haw
thorne in original "nut" comedy and
several other interesting attractions
make the current offering an interest
ing and deserving one. "Pekin My
steries," most sensational troupe i>f
Chinese magicians of to-day, are an
nounced as the leading attraction of
next week's show. Adv. ***
At the Colonial
The Depace Opera Company of de
lightful vocalists are presenting an ar
tistic vocal offering at the Colonial fo"
the last ha'lf of the week that is one
of the finest vaudeville attractions yet
seen at that playhouse. In the half
light of the stage, these six grand opera
trillers, present a scenic and musical
act that in itself is worth the time
and price. However, three other Keith
acts of merit ar e included in the line
up, not the least important of them be
ing the clever comedy song and patter
skit of Dugan and Raymond. Rose
and Gates, presenting a conjedy called
"The Mail Order Business'' and Har
old Kennedy, the eccentric song and
dance comedian, complete the roster.
"Blind Fate,'' an excellent moving
picture feature in two parts, that came
to the Colonial yesterday to remain
during the rest of the week, was yes
terday declared by many patrons to be
the best feature film seen at the "Busy
Corner." Adv. ***

SECTION At VIEW OF A GERMAN "UNTERSEEBOOTE" SHOWING ITS FLATTER DECK AND E>OAT SHAPED
APPEARANCE.
The Germans began to build nnder water fighting ernft very late, watching carefully the result of the experi
ments of the French and the British before undertaking the construction of like vessels. These boats, which are
very powerful, are provided wtth submarine signalling apparatus, carry guH.x on disappearing mountings and have
sleeping accommodations and several carry a seAr hligtit. The German craft are submersible*. the form of the outer
hull being similar tp a surface boat, wlik"h has better float ability and is easier to handle than the circular type when
on the surface. Inside the outer shell 'f"in inner shell, circular in shape, and between the two are the ballast tanks.
Unlike the majority of Great Britain's submarines, the German craft are divided by a series of bulkheads, as seen
in the illustration. All are driven by heavy oil engines on the surface and electric motors when below water, and
the crews, who are well trained, number in the later boau* more than two dozen men. All the boats are of the Ger
rrmnia type, bnilt by Krupps or at the Dantzic dockyard. The two pictures accompanTing the diagram which was

A Famous Saying
Whcui the great Napoleon was about
j to reach Paris on t'he way 'back from
i the disastrous Russian campaign he
j exclaimed, "Du sublime au ridicule il
n'y a qn'un pas" (from the sublime
to t'he ridiculous there is but a step).
Sucih is the generally received opinion
as to the origin of the famous sayin'g,
although some authorities attribute the
remark to the great historian, Long-i
--nns of the third century.—New York
Journal.
A Long Shot
In a certain textbook oil arithmetic
which was designed for use in schools
appears the following ingenious .prob
lem: "A cannon ball travels 540 feeti
in one second. How far will it "be from
the muzzle of the gun after the lapse
of thirty-five minutes?"— New York
Post.
A Good Start by Henry
They were discussing tfhe announce
ments of new books. One said:
"I understand that Henry .lames is
at work on a new thing."
"My information," said another, "is
'that he has adiready completed the
greater part of the sontenea."

The Most Expensive Sport
"The most expensive sport of all," 1

expensive that a yacht migfot well be
called a floating debt."J—Ohica/go
