In the company of; "[•"air and 'Warmer" at the Kltinge Theater, New York, was the original "English Eddie" in "Within the Law," and last season made a great success in "It Pays to Advertise." Pallas Players on an adventuresome j trip in the San Bernardino mountains, experienced a number of hairraising adventures. one of which, a rather sad one. we here recount: "While Dustin Farnum was tramp ing along through the deep snow on the way to a location, one of the prop bovs who was trudging alongside of him kicked something that gave in to the force of the blow. A hasty brush ing aside of the snow- revealed the body of a man who had been caught in the storm and frozen to death. 'Dirsty' « arried the body and assisted in mak ing the crossing of a brook grown ,) 'dangerous by the Hood water. 'A sad feature of the affair." said Farnum I back at the studios, 'was the poor woodsman's sweetheart, who had Jour- | neyed on foot up the six-mile trail on | hearing of the tragedy.' " The dangers of the pliotoplayer's art I n*-e very real and numerous, as Web- i ster Campbell, of the Western Vita graph Players, will testify. During i the photographing of a three-part fea- | lure at Truckee under William Wol-{ bert's direction. Mr. Campbell fell through the ice of the rapid river and was swept sixty feet under water to 1 an air hole, to whose edges he clung until the frightened company rescued j liim more dead than alive. LOCAL THEATERS "The Rlrth of a Nation" In his great spectacle. "The Birth of a Nation," D. W. Griffith utilized a full ; operatic score for the first time In Its i r lationship to the enlargement of bis - \ dried themes. It is the Wagnerian Idea fitted to the screen drama and the synchronization was so perfectly! adapted to this story that it becomes a very important part of the epic form , SATURDAY EVENING, , HARIUSBURG TELEGRAPH FEBRUARY 12, 1916. of narrative. The score was arranged by Joseph Carl Breil. who spent months with Mr. Griffith while he was making the picture and caught his ideas in snatches of tune that Griffith would hum while he was working out his big dramatic ideas. It is perhaps the most unusual score ever devised but is a wonderful feature in the production. This spectacle will be seen for one week at the Orpheum Theater beginning next Monday with matinee daily. William Vaughan Moody's famous American play, "The Great Divide," the story of a real East- Western ern girl's hatred Homnncr I* and eventual love YH-torln Offering; for an untamed rough character of the West, which is well remembered as the play in which Henry Miller and Margaret Anglin starred successfully /or many seasons, is the latest offering to be made to motion picture fans at the Victoria Theater. The play has been produced in five acts by the Lubln Company with House Peters and Ethel Clayton in the roles formerly played by . Mr. Miller and Miss Anglin. The Colonial Is exhibiting a very clever picture entertainmen* in "The Reckoning Flame." Pretty Mnrle the scenes of which Iloro Comes are laid in the land Monday of the Hindus.

"The Maryland Melody Maids." an aggregation of pretty girls, will offer a bright musical com edy skit as the main attraction of the Majestic's bill for the first half of next I week. Travel With Hone One of the most interesting features of the remarkably instructive and en tertaining program of pictures in the famous Lyman H. Howe Travel Fes tival that was shown to two big houses 1 at the Orpheum yesterdav will be re- ! peated to-night without CTiange of pro gram, is the logging scene in the Italian ! Alps. Giant logs, formed into huge rafts, arc piloted by skilled navigators with long sweeps down the rushing tor rents of the Italian Alps. The revela tion of the movements of animals, where the pictures are run in such a way that the animals are seen to move at only one-eighth of their regu lar speed, caused much amusement and . speculation. Every detail of the work ings of the muscles and the unusual grace of movement is splendidly brought out. Then. too. there are j scetfes in Holland. Scotland, our own Glacier National Park, and a visit to the plant of the Willys-Overland Com- 1 pany at Toledo. Ohio, showing the com plete manufacture and asemhllng of the parts of their automobiles. In addition, of course, there are the really scream- ingly funny cartoon pictures, which kept the audience in a constant gale of j laughter. The attraction at the Regent to-day \ is "Kilmeny," an exquisite gypsy love j story, starring Ignore A Oypsj- V'lrich, of "Bird of Para- i l.ove Story dise" fame, presented by j Is ••Kilmeny" the Oliver Morosco Co. on the Paramount pro gram.

One of the most brilliant affairs of i this season will be the concert of Thursday evening, February 17, in Technical auditorium, for the benefit of Sylvan Heights Orphanage. The principal artist will be Mary S. Warfel, the American harp virtuoso, assisted by her most talented pupil. Margaret M. Vaughn, of this city, who will at this concert make her initial appear ance to the public of Harriaburg. Miss Warfel has already had the experience lof several master minds, under the ; rigid tutelage of Heinrich Schuecker, I Carlos Salzedo and Ada Sassoli, names most esteemed in musical circles. Miss ! Warfel has spread her fame both I abroad and in America. As a soloist she has won laurels in New York. The exceptional technique, the ease, as well as the depth of soul power displayed by Miss Warfel, show that she is a perfect master of her instrument. I With such an able and intelligent in j structor. a real lover of music eagerly | awaits the presentation of another am | bitious harpist. This we have in the I person of Miss Marsarct Vaughn. The latter has made a study of the harp for ! several years. While quite small Miss I Vaughn showed marked talent and real interest. In later years, during ( her college career at St. Joseph's Col lege, Emmitsburg, Md., such zeal and love of this instrument prompted her | teacher to permit the rendition of a j harp recital. Such a rarity was highly I appreciated by the student body of ! this college. So successful were the results that upon the request of Pro fessor Fritz Gaul, a noted composer and musical director of Baltimore, Md., Miss Vaughn rendered a harp solo on the day of receiving her degree of bachelor of arts, in June, 1914. Since then her incessant desire to become a skilled artist has been constantly in i creasing until now her excellent abili ties characterize her as an accom ■ plished artist. Her sound musician ship and wonderful depth of feeling make her playing delightful and ; charming. -m HIT -THE--TRAIL--TO jr HARRISBURG'S GREATEST AUTO SHOW Tenth and Market Streets Feb. 19 to 26 i Every Make of Motor Cars and Trucks Sold in This City Will Be on Exhibition OPEN 11 A. M. TO 11 P. M. Popular Musical Concert Every Afternoon and Night by the SARA LEMER ORCHESTRA Admission - 25c | An interesting trio effect of the even i ing will be the presentation of Edwin I Hart, of Washington. D. C., with his I two sons, Edgar and Leland Hart. Ed- I win Hart, a former resident of Harris : burg, but now professor of Columbia Conservatory of Music, will accompany ! his sons in their various selections, i Edgar Hart is one of those violinists ! who captures his audience imme i diatcl.v. Mr. Hart studied abroad for ' several years and since his return has , proved himself one of the most promi j nent musicians. He was for several | seasons leader of Van Osten's orches ] tra and since then has filled several j engagements with New York opera | companies. Mr. Hart's execution is j faultless and his tonal quality full and | broad, with a decided resemblance to the Kubelik schooling. A pleasing ! characteristic of the young man is his ; absolute composure and self-con fidence. Iceland Hart, a brother, is a cellist of note. The really wonderful ability j with which Mr. Hart manages his bow, together with the charming personality of the young man, have won for hini his place in the musical world. The vocal selections of Mrs. Mervin ! Tremble, formerly Miss Carrie Comp ton. of this city, with Miss Myrtle i Dornbaugh as piano soloist, will bo another Interesting feature of the even ing. Mrs. Tremble's musical abilities 1 have formerly won for her much ap i plause. Her wonderful expression, volume and clearness of tone charm the most delicate ear. Too much , praise cannot be given Harrisburg's brilliant piano soloist. Miss Myrtle i Dornbaugh, whose musical abilities are i winning her exceptional honors. Miss Dornbaugh made her debut in a recitiil l in the Spring of 1915. Since then she ; has appeared in several select con certs, exhibiting to the appreciative, audiences her case of manner and fine execution, together with the marked j expression displayed in her various selections. These attributes always ; distinguish Miss Dornbaugh as the I true artist. —Adv. 13
