Apparently the members of the City Planning Commission are being con vinced that to deny to the residents on the Hill the relief they want, and which the recent, election said they should have, the Walnut street bridge, and of fer them relief (?) in way of subways, would possibly not be a wise thing for them to do. 1 conclude this because we are told that a State street viaduct is to be taken under advisement at the next meeting of the acting commis sioners. It is then in order that this new plan be well considered in advance; and, as professedly all parties desire only that which is fair, that neither element in terested means to act selfishly, it.ought not to be hard to find a solution that is fair to all and that all can accept. It is proper, therefore, to compare the two bridges with each other and see which one is to be preferred, or is best adapted to afford the relief for the Hill, and also be acceptable to the city and State. It would, it seems to me, be a great mistake to allow trolley and heavy team traffic to be carried on through Capitol Park, as it will have to be If the bridge is built at State street. The park will be disfigured by the bridge approach, and will be constantly hurt in different ways by that kind of use of it. And a bridge on State street will have to be considerably longer than one on Walnut street, if it is to elimi nate the hill-climbing, without which the relief afforded would not satisfy the Hill. The following points, it seems to me. /T\ SANTA CLAUS \\ g presides at a well-laden £ table if Drum furnishes the l 1 fx? turkey.

Sixth Street Anywhere may be accepted by all as favorable to the plan to have the bridge at Walnut street. I It would be shorter and less costly. I It. would serve the Hill people better than one in State street ever could If I built for the purpose it could take care lof both trolley and heavy team traffic. It would be handy to the park, yet out side of it, so it would not be hurt. The l traffic coming from the east in State street could be diverted at. say, the in teresection of Balm and State streets, | and by a boulevard curving along the : brow of the hill connect with the bridge ] near its eastern end. Or. possibly, a I better plan would be to run in State I street, as now, till to the railroad, then I turn south and reach the height of the 1 bridge by an approach running parallel (with the railroad, and so across the I bridge, so landing passengers right at j the park entrance. It can thus be plain ly seen that the Walltut street bridge ! will answer the purpose for which a ] bridge is needed much better than one | in State street. ! But while, as I said, neither trolley I nor heavy team traffic, should be al i lowed m the park, it would seem to be. I a necessity to provide a way of com- I inunication between the Seventh street district and Market street an<i so a roadway for trolley and team service | should be built along the east side of the park next to the railroad. This, it would seem to me. would pro vide a fair find unselfish solution of the whole matter, and would in no way hinder the beautifyiiiß of the park dis- I trict. The Hill would have its relief. | the traffic problem would he solved, the | congestion in Mulberry street and its j western approach would be relieved, land there would be no need of enlarging j the Market street subway. I Thanking you for thus courteously I granting space in your valuable paper, Yours respectfully, 1 A HILL. RESIDENT. lA(Y)U3Gft)QTPSI You will be interested. Mr. and Mrs. Theatergoer, to learn that Geraldine Farrar, whom you enjoyed so much In "Carmen" recently, is going to act something even more exciting. She will shortly appear in a picture drama founded on her own experiences as a young singer abroad. "Katinka." Arthur Hammersteln's latest production, will have its Now York premiere to-morrow at the Forty fourth Street Theater. Tills operetta follows in the footsteps of "High Jinks" and ".Firefly," by the same au thors. • A number of New York's dramatic land theatrical organizations are ar i ranging for a memorial to the la te Charles Klein, famous among theatrical producers, who lost his life in the sink ing oi the Lmsltania. AT THE OItPHEI M "At the Old Cross Koads," which is the Christmas attraction at the Or pheum, Saturday, afternoon and even ing, is a play that teems with the romance of the South and is interspers ed with bright and wholesome comedy. It tells the story of a cruel, heartless husband, who, through Ills greed for money, endeavors to bring disgrace up on the head of his rightful wife by im pressing her with the fact that she is an octoroon and not a white woman. Miss Kstha Williams will be seen in the role of "Parepa." Harrisburg is soon to have the op portunity to hear the famous violinist, Fritz Kreisler. His appearance in this city is scheduled for Wednesday night. January 26. It is promised that his program will consist of his own com positions for at least half its length. A VERSATILE CHINESE WOMAN Lady Sen Mel, a petite Chinese belle, who appears on the Majestic bill for the first half of the week, does not confine herself to her native language in her novel offering. She does employ just one Chinese number, but the remainder of her repertoire is devoted to popular American songs and it is by this stan dard that the little lady from the Flowery Kingdom prefers to be judged. Her register enables her to sing bari tone, contralto and soprano and thus In troduce a series of surprises in the way of bird and animal imitations. I 1*01*1" I,A II YORK PAIR COMING TO MAJESTIC When Nella Walker and Wilbur Mack were at the Orplieum for their last previous engagement, the management exploited what proved to be a very suc cessful "York Night." It happens that these two well-known vaudevilllans are residents of our neighboring city and many of their friends took advantage of the opportunity to come to Harris burg to see their act. Throughout their vaudeville experience, these two artists have presented a flirtation skit. The new sketch which they will offer on the Christmas bill at the Majestic is on a more enlarged idea, but it is said to call in some of Sir. Mack's crisply bright lilies and some of his newest ditties. Four people appear in the act and It is called "A Pair of Tickets." AT THE REKENT Blanche King will be presented in "The Yankee Girl," an adaptation of her great musical comedy success of several seasons ago, at the Regent to day and to-morrow. Miss Ring is supported by Forrest Stanley, one of Oliver Morosco's leading men, unci Herbert Standing. The cxuei . manner in which Miss Uipg Is said to handle the fine comedy in "The Yankee Girl," especially in the love scenes with Forrest Stanley, and in the champagne scene with Herbert Standing, makes her early success in films easy to understand. Friday, one day only—Bosworth pre sents George Fawcett in "The Majesty of the Law," on the Paramount Pro gram. Francis N. Bushman's profile was rhn"tred from Grecian to Roman re cently when liis horse throw him to the ground and broke the nose of the star of the Metro films. AT THE CO I,ONI A f. The new Trinngle program that will go on view at the Colonial to-morrow, will call in a dramatic feature entitled "Matrimony," in which Julia Dean's his trionic talents are shown in a role that ranges from a homekeeper to a gay butterfly. Howard Hickman interprets the role of the husband, and Thelma Walter, the little daughter. Thomas H. Ince has shown his great knowledge of society functions and manner of life In the settings employed In "Matri mony." The comedy feature of the new Tri angle program is called "His Father's Footstens" and stars Ford Sterling.

The unusual rush this Christinas, however, has slightly delayed plans, but with the new year less than two weeks in the future the businessmen, residents and property owners are getting readv for the organization, which will lie ii big help, it is believed, in bringing more improvements in the uptown dis trict. WINNING \s WORLD'S BANK 1H { Special to The Telegraph Argentine, Former London Borrower, Sow Gets Millions Here New York, Dec. 22.—The National City Bank lias made another loan of about sii,ooo,ooo to the Argentine gov ernment at 6 per cent, for six months. The expiration of this loan probably will be followed by another undertak ing of a larger amount and for a longer term. Altogether the amounts loaned to Argentine, which formerly financed its needs through London, now aggregate $46,000,000, including previous credits of ?25,000,000 and $10,000,000.

AT TUB VICTOR I V One of the most unusual film features that have ever been produced at this theater is promised for to-day and iA entitled "The Warning." It is said to be a series of weird, startling scenes and situations uniting in fascinating | continuity to a most astounding finale, in "The Warning" one sees depleted the horrors of hell, the hopes of happi , nrss. the heat of hate, the throbs of an J aching heart, the enduring love of a 1 faithful woman 'and midst such dra matic action and such formidable cli maxes as to stamp the picture as a rare | handiwork. For to-morrow is announc jed Gail Kane in "The Labyrinth." i __ Julia Dean, who scored a distinctive lilt as star in the new Triangle play. I "Matrimony," which comes to the Colo i nial Theater to-morrow for a three-day stay, is by no means new to the the atrical world. She was favorably known to the public before her entry into films for her work in "Bought and Paid For" and "The Law of the Land." Miss Dean is said to be even more fascinating In her new film venture, with its wonder ful story, which answers this ijues tion: When a man tires of his wife and seeks diversion in every pretty face he meets and she still loves him, what's she going to do about It? Miss Dean scores twice in the play and it is by the reversal in character, make-up and manner. First she is the ; fond wife, who waits on every nod and beck of her lord. As her solicitation for his comfort and happiness Increases his indifference likewise increases. Then I ho starts to pay open and marked atten tions to the women around him. The climax comes at a dinner, when he utterly ignores his wife for n scatter brained young thing in flashy and scant attire.—Advertisement.
