io requests from bow.ers all over the
country for a little more time in which

terday that the entries for the eighth
annual tournament for the champion
ships of America at Atlantic City,
April 8 to 29, win not close until mid

their affairs so as to make the trip to
Atlantic City. Undoubtedly, however.
New York will produce its promised
fifty teams. The interest and enthu
siasm from outlying towns is far

company In "The Girl in the Taxi."
ORPHEUM

COLONIAL
Vaudeville and Pictures—Every after
noon and evening.
DANCES TANGO TONIGHT
Society tango dancing will be most
comprehensively Illustrated during the
performance of "The Girl in the Taxi"
at the Majestic Theater, this evening',
by Helen Grayce and Karle Ritchie. It
is the idea of Miss Grayce to show Just
what the much-discussed tango is like,
and how It Is danced at society balls
and halls of the metropolis. No attempt
is made to introduce fancy figures, and
therefore the many tango steps will be
shown in a way that will enable the
audience to draw their own conclusions
as to whether or not the dance is
proper. "The Girl In the Taxi" in
itself is well worth seeing, as it con
tains all the gingery dash and go of
cabaret life of New York. "The Witch
ing Hour," this afternoon, is a wonder
ful play, and demonstrates the possi
bilities of mind-reading. During the
| last act of "The Witching Hour" Miss
Grayce wears a blue wig to match her
blue dress. The bills for to-morrow are
Viola Allen's great success, "The White
Sister," at the matinee, and "A Grain
of Dust" to-morrow night.—Advertise

ORPHEUM HILL
Not seldom, but never, have local
vaudeville devotees had the pleasure of
sitting through so entrancing, so gorge
ous, or so light and whimsical an en
tertainment, as "The Bride Shop," that
came to the Orpheum yesterday and
Bcored a success that branded It easily
the finest playlet ever seen at the Lo
cust street playhouse. And how well it
deserved the compliment! In the mat
ter of costuming "The Bride Shop"
shows attention that Is seldom paid a
Broadway production. Kiauorate
gowns, and any amount of them, far
exceed the best "legitimate" of vaude
ville act seen in Harrlsburg In years.
T,he most extreme Parisian sensations.
In chiffons, velvets, brocades, etc., de
signed In the most startling creations
we have seen, simply take one's breath
away as they appear in rapid succes
sion. And the airy stage picture, with
its profusion of lilacs, sweet peas, lacy
hangings, and beautiful girls, will leave
memories of bewildering Bcenes that
will linger long In the memories of
patrons of the Orpheum long after "The
Bride Shop" is gone. The theme of the
playlet and the tuneful lyrics with
which it is sprinkled, are all interesting
and splendidly handled by a capable
cast. In its entirety "The Bride Slup"
Is the finest and most elaborate pro
duction that vaudeville has seen. And
Van and Schenk, the pennant winners
as'vocalists and piano player#,* are here
for a return engagement. They were in
their old-time form of favoritism with
yesterday's audiences, and If the house
could have had tts way, they would
probably be still singing. The offering
Is one of the best ever seen at the Or
pheum and ought to serve to pack the
house each day all week.—Advertise
ment.
AT THE COLONIAL
There's a rolicking little one-act
musical comedy called "The Mpdietne
Man," at the Busy Corner for the first
half of the week that ought to prove a
special treat to patrons of that play
house. Clever comedians and pretty
girls sing, dance and amuse in a man
ner that is seldom enjoyed anywhere
t>ut In the higher-priced playhouses A
clever sister team in songs and dances,
and a good co<nedy duo round out a
vaudeville bill that Is certainly worth
while.—Advertisement.

Lykens Trade Board Cannot
Assist New Shirt Factory
Special to The Telegraph
Lykens, Pa., March 24.—Officers of
the Board of Trade met in extra ses
sion for the purpose of considering a
proposition of bringing a new shirt
factory to town. The proposition was
presented by Charles Grubb, of Loy
alton, who is operating a plant In that
town and who wishes to locate In Ly
kens. Scarcity of help in Loyalton
makes it necessary for Mr. Grubb to
seek a larger place. The proposition
was debated with favorable comment,
but the board 1 passed a resolution
stating It would be unable to afford
Mr. Grubb any material help at this
time, as the board was obliged to
turn down a larger proposition from
one of the citizend of Lykens some
time ago. At present there seems toj
be a scarcity of female help In thei
various hosiery mills and box factory
In Lykens. The board went on record
as extending their hearty good will to
Mr. Grubb.
