If one wants pleasantly and profit
ably to while away an evening, one
should by all means
"When Dreams see "When Dreams
Come True" Come True," which
comes to the Orpheum
Christmas, matinee and night. There is
eo much diversified entertainment in
the play that one will readily find
something of interest. If one longs for
rnelodrama, see "When Dreams Come
True." It is melodramatic. Should
one's tastes be Inclined to farce, see
"When Dreams Come True." It Is farci
cal. Does one's fancy tend to musical
comedy of the brightest order, then see
"When Dreams Come True." for it is
musical comedy of the highest order,
an anomaly among musical comedies,
Inasmuch as it Is musical and has real
comedy throughout the action.
What it means In the way of trans
portation bills alone to bring a pro
duction of the order of
Philadelphia the Philadelphia Grand
firniKl Opera Opera Company to this
Company city, which is being done
by Gayle Burlingame, on
the 30th of December, when he presents
this great company in an afternoon
performance of "Barber of Saville," and
an evening performance of "II Trova
tore," is easily figured by the layman
when he stops to multiply "the number
of the company, which is 200. by the
cost of a roundtrip ticket to Philadel
rbia by mileage, which is 54.32, or a
otal approximating J864. Add to this
the salaries of the musicians, the stage
crew, and the supernumeraries, and the
transfer bill and see what an astound
ing total is reached before any consid
eration is made for the payment of sal
aries to the principals or the chorus!

Truly, only capacity houses, and this
promises now to be the case, will even
mean for the bills to bo paid without
any margin or profit being left for
either the company or the local pro
moters.
By virtue of arrangement between
Aubrey Mittenthal and John Cort, Har
risburg is to have a
"Flora Bella" chance to see "Flora
at the Orpheum Bella," the New York
niurical comedy suc
cess. before the New York company has
completed its run in the metropolis.
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. The advance sale of seats
will start on Christmas Day.
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. In a part that
gives her full play wo doubt if Miss
Joyce has ever been seen to better ad
vantage. The story centers on Sir
Denis Ksmond, who contemplates lead
ing a band of Irishmen against Eng
land. In this he is aided by Mary
O'Neil, the girl he loves. Sir George
Leigh, another admirer of Mary's and
a true English patriot, is temporarily
blinded on his ship and is sent to
Mary's home to recuperate. Here he
discovers Dsnis' plans and succeeds
finally in dissuading him from his pur
pose. To do so he Is obliged to rip the
bandage from his eyes—to see for a
moment, but to KO blind ngain—for life.
Mary Miles Minter will be presented
in "A Dream or Two Ago," a special
Saturday bill.
Mary Pieltford's first picture since
she surprised her legions of devoted
admirers by announcing that in future
she intended to be independent in her
productions will be shown on Christ
mas Day, also Tuesday and Wednes
day following. It is "Less Than the
Dust." *
Chag. Ray is given an opportunity to
display his versatility in "The Honor
able Algy," the new
Chan. 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.
