While this big musical piece is owned and presented by Mr. Cort. Mittenthal has purchased the right to put out a southern company, and it is this south ern company that will appear in Har risburg next Wednesday. The play, as presented by the original New York cast, is one of Broadway's real hits, and Mr. M'ttenthal claims he is nuttine' to gether a company that will do credit to the piece.

Santa Claus never forgets the chil- I dren, and proof of this can be found at _ the Majestic Theater Toy* for the where, after greeting Children at each child with a liand- Mnjeiillc shake, he gives them a handsome Christmas toy. The theater and lobby have been beau tifully decorated for the greatest of all holidays, and a large Christmas tree, brilliantly Illuminated with colored electric lights, stands in one corner of the lobby. The bill of vaudeville ap pearing at the theater the last half of this week is headed by a good musical comedy, entitled "Harvest Days." There is not a dull moment during the entire act, and when you are not listening to tuneful and catchy songs sung bv a chorus of pretty girls, you are laugh ing at a clever comedian, who causes lots of fun. Surrounding this attrac tion are: David S. Hall and company, in a well-"'ritten and cleverly acted comedy sketch entitled, '■Speed." Ward ami Van, excellent Italian character comedians; R. C. Faulkner, presenting "Woodrow," and Vivian Cahill, novelty trapeze artist. "Whom the Gods Destroy" will be the main attraction at the Regent to-day. It marks the return of Alice Joyce n the popular favorite, Regent To-day Alice Joyce, to the screen after a good many years of absence.

Ray nt Triangle play booked the Colonial for the Colonial Thea ter to-day and to-mor row. Heretofore Ray has always been noted for his success in portraying weak-willed youth caught in the toils of debauchery and passion, but this vehicle offers him In a happier role. "The Honorable Algy" is a rollicking tale of a susceptible young Englishman and the chain of extraordinary circum stances that embarrassed him on his maiden viist to America, where he comes to contract a rich marriage and save his titled family from ruin. He becomes Involved in a series of compli cations that threaten for a time to ruin his mission. The action of the picture takes place at Christmas time and has been booked as a special feature for Jhcse two days. The usual funny com edy and a Pathe travel picture will complete the program. Motion picture lovers who want to see a member of Denmark royalty, should take advantage "Tile Hidden of the opportunity that Valley," nt is presented at the the Victoria Victoria to-day. Val- Uyrien, the Baroness DeWitz, the noted beauty, is starred in "The Hidden Valley." It is a highly dramatic story depicting the power of brains over brute force. It concerns a white man, who penetrates the depths of darkest Africa in search of plumes for a larpre importer. How he bravely Invades "Hidden Valley," where plumes | tire plentiful, but where death awaits the intruder; who is hailed as a God ' because he brings water to the arid val i ley, and how he frees a beautiful white ' g'il,.bout to be sacrificed, is a splendid I tnle of thrills, mysticism and romance. | For to-morrow we offer the great star.
