8 illlllllllllllllllllllllll \\€eisun-teepecta* to ihe i eicgraph Newport. PP.. Feb. 23. —Above is a flashlight picture of the brilliant affair on Thursday evoning when George anil Martha Washington received the members of the Phllomathean Club and their invited guests at the masked Colonial party given in Rtppman Hall.

CARLISLE ELKS 10 GIVE BRADY'S DREAM Musical Concoction in Three Acts Arranged and Staged by Leo McDonald Harrieburge.rs are promised a real j treat In amateur theatricals when the Carlisle Elks present their musical comedy, "George Brady's Dream," at tho Majestic Theater next week. The production will be given under the auspices of tho local Elks Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of next week, with a bargain matinee on Wednesday afternoon. The piece, a musical concoction in three acts and five scenes, was written, arranged and staged by Deo McDon ald. a member of the Majestic Theater orchestra of this city but a resident of Carlisle and a member of the Elks in that city. Mr. McDonald possesses marked ability in this line and those who witness the play next week will wonder why he hasn't made that work his profession. < While they have for years been known as the Carlisle Minstrels, the play given by the Carlisle amateur actors is not an old-style minstrel show, with its semicircle of black-face jokers and an afterpart of vaudeville specialties. On the other hand, it is of the pattern of modern musical comedy, with elaborate scenery, nearly a dozen gorgeously gowned "girls," numerous interpolated songs and some lively dancing, as well as three acts that are chockful of good fun. It is probably the excellent work of the Carlisle boys in filling the roles and clothing of show Kirls that gives the play its strongest appeal. Ralph Harris, who makes in Carlisle many of the fanciest things fhat drape tho shoulders of Harrisburg society ladies, put his best efforts into this produc tion, with the result that the sextet of "girls" who appear in the last act look like so many models displaying star tling effects in advance styles of cos tyming. The story of the play runs along lines that might have been truth if George Brady had had his way last year and taken the Carlisle perform ers on the road, although the second act. which shows them stranded in the Par West, could scarcely have come to pass if the show that Brady wanted to take out was as good as this one. There is a moving picture showing the Carlisle Minstrels boarding a train to take their departure and the citizens are out by the hundred waving them good-by. Then come their experiences in the West among the tangoing cow boys and cowgirls, and finally a recep tion upon their return to Carlisle, ip which the gorgeous costumes find place. The sale of tickets for these per formances will begin at the Majestic box office on Friday morning, although tickets will be sold by Elks all this week. These Elk tickets will be ex changeable at the box office on Friday also, so that all will have the same chance. OFFICERS OF KING'S ME.V Special to The Telegraph Waynesboro, Pa.. Feb. 23.
