PLAYS AND PLAYERS Biille Burke's enormous personal following and the desire of film lovers to welcome a new star have produced a succession of reports of crowded houses and requests for repeats from all over the country for "Peggy," in which she is now appearing in this city at the Colonial Theater. The reports from abroad seem to be borne out here in that this is her second Harrisburg appear ance in the same fllm within two weeks. The opinion of the clergy is always respected, even when it is applied to moving pictures. A Boston minister, the Rev. Mr. Heath, made the new Chaplin contract for SIO,OOO a week the subject of a recent Sunday sermon. "Chaplin is doing good because he is provoking laughter. Any one who can bring Joy, mirth and sunshine into human souls Is doing something good," said the Reverend Sir. Heath, who is evidently a member of the Optimists' Club. The New York Telegraph of yester day, states that Maude Adams, the i'rohman star, who has been scheduled i" appear in this city next month In her lamous success, "The Little Minister," has cancelled her western engagements l»y reason of the death of her mother, Mrs. Annie Asenath Kiskadden, which urred last Friday night at her home, in Salt Lake City. Her engagement in this city on April 12 has not been can celled, however, so in all probability Harrtsburg will have an opportunity to f-ee Miss Adams again. When Theda Bara was infolimed that Arthur Brisbane, the prominent New Vork editor, who created a sensation last week In his speech at the banquet of the Motion Picture Board of Trade, had never witnessed her screen acting, her reply was: "We're quits. I have never read one of his editorials." The Pennsylvania Board of Motion Picture Censors lost a court battle, the other day. when the Fox Film Corpora tion and the Pathe Company, of New Vork. appealed from the decisions ren dered in four cases during the last month. The films under discussion were: "The Serpent," "The Fool's Re venge." "The Iron Claw," and "New Vork." The censors were reversed in the case of the first two, while the others were taken under considera tion. LOCAL THEATERS "The Night Before" Harry Lauder's new play. "The Night Before." will give two performances at the Orpheum to-morrow, matinee and evenings. Two months' of marked suc cess on the road, with long engage ments in Boston and Montreal and a return engagement at Toronto, seem to indicate that will make as great «i name as a playwright, as he has as a « omedian. Of course, the play is Scotch and, of course, it is a comedy. For five years Mr. Lauder has been at work on •'The Night Before," and it was origi nally intended to give it a first presen tation in Glasgow next summer. But he yielded to the persuasion of thousands of Scotchmen in Boston, and in that rlty assembled his cast, designed his ecenery and drilled the company for AMUSEMENTS EHH3 P ICTURE3 KRC BOOKED THROUGH MPANY or PMILA./PA.
