Oh! Oh! Delphine
Give Him a Pain
Jim Elliott, stage manager at the!
Majestic Theater, has a headache. Not
because there have been three dark
days at the theater, but because ti
takes so many men to handle the "Oh! I
Oh! Dalphine" show that come in to
morrow, that it looks as though the '
stage hands union may hrve to issue a
call for volunteers.
The "hanging stuff" of the "Oh! Oh! I
Delphine" show—which means the |
scenery that sleeps aloft while not
working—is so massive that it will re
quire ten men to work up in "flyman's
heaven" to raise and lower the tinsel.
In addition to these more than fortv
stage hands will be employed on the
stage level.
Speaking of "Oh! Oh! Delphine,"'
Manager Hopkins, of the Majestic, says
there have been more questions asked
and written about this play than any
other this season.

TWO METHODIST
CHURCHES OF CITY
MAY LOSE PASTORS
Hart and Daugherty to Go Is Gos
sip Heard About the
Sessions Today
Two local Methodist ministers will
end their pastorates In this city vvitli
the present session of the Central
Pennsylvania Conference according to
conference gossip heard to-day.
The Rev. B. H. Hart, for fourteen
years pastor of Fifth Street Methodist
and the Rev. John H Daugherty, for i
six years pastor at Ridge Avenue
Church, are the ones mentioned as
about to be changed despite the re
luests of all congregations in the city
or tie retention of their pastors.
That there will be Home changes In
Harrtaburg is the general opinion
imong those who are keeping in close
ouch with the cabinet meetings which
-tarted yesterday. Nothing definite
•vill likely be known until the final
abinet meeting Saturday afternoon
lowever.
The only hope among Methodist
ongregations In Harrisburg, that no
hanges are likely to be made when
he annual appointments are announc
ed, is a long established precedent
vith presiding bishops to make no
•hanges of pastors in cities where the
o -fe ence sessions are held.

"Overland Hedi" a romance of the
Moonstone Canon Trail. Published by
'Houghton Mifflin Company, Boston. Il
lustrated by Fischer. ?1.3u net.
"Overland Red" Is an anonymous
novel which the hackneyed phrase "red
blooded" fits like a.glove. It tells of
thrilling adventures, hairbreadth es
capes, of true love of the finest typos of
manhood. The scene is laid in Califor
nia, the country immortalized by Bret
Harte, and alternates between the
ranching country and the hidden can
ons where gold mines are to be discov
ered.
"Overland Red" is a tramp, a poet,
a cowboy, a philosopher. In him the
author has drawn a wonderful picture
of one In whom courage and daring are
strangely blended with a deep senti
ment and affection crudely but forcibly
expressed. One might properly call him
the David Harum of the plains, so pic
turesque and varied are his stories,
similes, and shrewd observations. The
book embodies the creed of the West as
expressed by "Red"—
Here's to California,
The darling of the West,
A blessing on those living there
And God help all the rest!
For various reasons the author of
' Overland Red" does not wish his name
to be disclosed until some months after
the publication of his book. He is,
however, a novelist whose books have
found favor. He also has been a tramp
himself, and knows hobo life from the
inside. In a recent letter received by
his publishers, he says:
"The pony Yuma mentioned in the
story is my own cayuse, a broncho with
a reputation even here, where there are
enough bad ones, the Lord knows. She
ran away with me Sunday and used me
up quite a bit. She is charmingly un
certain, and therein lies her bright par
ticular charm. In other words. I am in
a position to stand back of and close to
any matter in the book, for it has all
been gained by individual and sweaty
experience."

"One of the saddest days of my lifo
was that when we returned to Cape
Evans in the Terra Nova," said the
young officer.
"We had prepared a gala fra3t'
aboard the Terra Nova that day. We
had brought out the best food and
wines we could •buy at Melbourne as
we expected to feast Captain Scott
and his men, who we were positive
had discovered the pole.
"The Te.'ra Nova was dressed with
flags as W3 sailed up to the little set
tlement at Cape Evans and the saloon
was decorated with bunting and flags.
"We anchored in the stream, and as
I looked at the group of men stand-|

hands.
No,' shouted buck one of the- men.
'Captain Scott discovered the pole on !

party perished on the return Journey.
