R. )i■J ■ i ■ TUESDAY EVENING, REVIEW OF MAJESTIC BILL The Juvenile Act Takes Honors and Has Surrounding Bill of Variety Seven clever little youngsters take first honors at the Majestic for the first half of the week with a versatile presentation of juvenile art. The kidlcts make a hit from the start with their act and win applause from the most critical vaudeville follower. Unfortunately, the remainder of the show isn't quite so well balanced. Billy Kinkaid, impersonating a Scotch man, opens the bill with a juggling and weight act. Burke and Harris have something new to offer in the way of singing songs of long ago. Percy Pollock and oompany in "Bobby at the Seashore" bring many laughs from the audience and develop opportunities for plenty of humor. Hickman Brothers in "Two Ways to Look" closes the bill. This act is about the only one which is lacking in the real fun-producing element charac teristic of vaudeville sketches. Three capacity audiences greeted the offerings yesterday and were appar ently pleased at least with part of the bill. MAX ROBERTSON. G. M. Stroup, Ex-Associate Judge of Perry County, Dies Blain, Pa., Nov. 21. George M. Stroup, a former associate Judge of the Perry courts, whoso residence is one mile and a half east of Blain on the State road, died suddenly on Sunday afternoon at the home of Russell Mar tin, in Madison township. Mr. Stroup was in his usual health and attended church services Sunday morning a few hours before his death in the Zion's Lutheran Church at Blain. The cause of his death was heart failure. He was 70 years old. Mr. Stroup had been a farmer and lived here most of his life. He served in a number of township and county offices. He was a member of Zion's Lutheran Church and at the time of his death was serv ing as elder in the church council. Mr. Stroup is survived by his wife, who was Mary Ellen Martin, and three sons and two daughters, Mrs. Annie Woods, of Blain; Robert M. Stroup. of North Dakota; Charles E. Stroup, of Montana; Professor F. Neff Stroup, of Palmyra, N. J„ and Mrs. Roy Allen, of Meriden, Conn. Funeral arrange ments will not be made until his son Robert in North Dakota is heard from.

BURTON HOLMES IN FIRST LECTURE Wcll-Known Lecturer Gives "Canada From Coast to Coast" to Big House Burton Holmes, traveler and lec turer, was heard at the Orpheura last evening In the first of a series of five Monday evening travelogues. A large audience greeted Mr. Holmes on this his first visit to Harrisburg, and tf in dications amount to anything the course of lectures will prove one of tho most popular heard in this city. Last night's lecture was "Canada from Coast to Coast," and with highly in teresting colored slides and motion pictures was the audience taken, from the Atlantic to the Pacific in this next door neighbor of our country's. Mr. Holmes as a lecturer is so widely and favorably known that to add any thing to his already long line of favorable comment Is well-nigh impos sible. But no matter how good a lec turer, no matter how much he knows of the subject he is speaking about, there is one thing which any audience appreciates to to the fullest, and that is the ability through his enunciation to understand his words no matter where one sits. This is the truth in Mr. Holmes' case. In the very last row when even the motion pictures are shown can one fully understand him, except as was the case last night when one sits near to another who .knows so much about the place being lectured about as to be unable to re frain from telling those around him about it. Mr. Holmes draws his word pictures delightfully and with one or two novelties increases the interest of the lecture. MAX ROBERTSON. ORPHEl'M—Wednesday, matinee and night, November 22—Blanche King in "Broadway and Buttermilk." Friday evening "When a Woman Sins." (Yiddish). Saturday only, November 25 James T.

COLONIAL—"The War Bride's Secret." REGENT—"Ashes of Embers." VlCTOßlA—"Neptune's Daughter." Magnetic Blanche Ring, the singer of many popular songs, returns to the Or pheum to-morrow, matinee Blanche and night, where she has Ring not appeared before for sev eral seasons, in "Broadway and Buttermilk," by Willard Mack, au thor of many present day successes and numerous clever vaudeville sketches, which has proved to be as exactly suited to the star as Miss Ring is to the char acter of Jane O'Day, the Broadway milliner summering at Killimuck Falls, Me. To this quiet little village come also two or three other city characters. Then the fun begins and is continued through three acts of merriment and songs. A rush of mail orders are pouring in to the box office of the Orpheum Thea ter for the iriuch heralded Bernhardt return of Sarah Bern- Seats hardt on Wednesday even ing. November 29, when this great actress —in the opinion of many the greatest who ever trod the boards —will positively present scenes from the most popular plays in her famous repertoire. The sale at the box office does not begin before Monday, November 21, and judging by the ad vance demand through the mail, what few seats are left will soon be bought up when the box office sale is opened to the public Monday morning. The program Includes scenes from the fol lowing plays: "Cleopatra," "Camille," i and a one-act play called "The Field of Honor and Rosalie." This coming week Burton Holmes will take his audiences to enjoy with him the Joys of two months i "The spent in the Canadian Cnnadlnn Rockies this last summer. Hookies" In the Canadian Rockies llurton there is scenic material for Holmes the making of a score of grander Swltzerlands, and there are hostelries that rival in beauty of situation and surpass in luxury and comfort many a world-famous Alpine caravansary; there are thousands of miles of roads and easy trails that all may travel in comfort and safety; there are also untrodden fastnesses, uncon quered peaks,'and passes yet uncrossed, to test the powers of the exploring mountaineer. Mr. Holmes will give "In the Cana dian Rockies," a the Orpheum Theater on Monday evening at 8:15 o'clock. Admirers of Pauline Frederick should not miss seeing her in "Ashes of Em bers," in which she "Axhes of plays the dual role of Embers" at twin slsterfe, at the lirKent Today [legent to-day only. In this unusual production the cele brated emotional actress is seen as Agnes, a drudge, and Laura, her heart less, designing sister. It Is one of the most remarkable pieces of acting that even Miss Frederick has ever done on the screen. The particularly pleasing feature of the charming picture, "The Quest of Life," shown at the Regent to-morrow and Thursday, is the marvelous danc ing of the internationally celebrated Maurice and Florence Walton, who art the co-stars of the production. This picture marks their debut on the screen and is. it is said, a great success. The far famed Apache dance, which was in troduced to America by Maurice, will be one of the many dances which ho and his partner will perform on the screen. The many persons who attended the Colonial Theater yesterday to see Wil liam Fox's latest pro "Th® War ductlon, "The War Bride's Secret," Bride's Secret," ex- Colonlal pecting to see a pow erful play, were not disappointed. The picture features Vir ginia Pearson, and is by far the best play In which this clever emotional actress has ever appeared. The powei ful story tells how a young girl secret ly marries her lover just before he is called to the front. Later her father compels her to marry another man. To-morrow, one day only, Douglas Fairbanks will be seen in a return en gagement of his great record-breaking success, "Manhattan Madness." A love play presented in the usual "Fairbanks' style that moves at a mile-a-mlnutw speed, and one of the best pictures that was ever seen In the city. It broke the house record when it was shown a couple weeks ago. The Keystone play ers will be on the same program in a new two-reel Keystone comedy, "Hay stacks and Steeples." The world-famed star of "A Daugh ter of the Gods." Annette Kellerrnan. is the great attraction £t Annette the Victoria in the re- Kellermnn markable picture play, nt Victoria "Neptune's Daughter." Miss Kellerrnan has been termed "the perfect woman." and is known to almost every man. woman and child as the world's champion swimmer. As an artist before the camera she is also a star of the first magnitude. Of the picture play itself the New York Star says: "It Is the most brilliahtly effec tive screen production ever prolectd, either In this country or Europe." To morrow we offer for the first time in this citv J. Warren Kerrigan in "Th° Silent Battle." "Civllliatlon." Thos. H. lnea'a million-doll*r production, will be ■hewn bar* shortly, Watch for it.
