20 MAJESTIC BILL IS ENTERTAINING Each Act Brings Much Ap plause; Many Encores Called; Fine Singing Vaudeville patrons of Harrisburg "were amply repaid for their attend ance last evening at the Majestic the ater. It was one of the beat programs at the theater this year and each act ■was heartily applauded. Beginning with Vanatta and Ger shon, whose attractiveness was one of the features of the show, every act was encored. Vanatta and Ger •shon sang and played their way into the hearts of the audience; Morris and Campbell, comedy entertainers, were a scream nnd proved to be a good second to the first act. Charles W. Boyer's presentation of "The Southern Misses in Mammy's Dream" was a good pivot act and balanced the program well. Bight pretty girls, two colored, and each specializing ii; either singing or dancing, follow ed the example set by the first two acts. Manning. Feeney and Knoll, a singing trio rendered several songs, and at the conclusion were forced to respond several times to the ap plause of the audience. They were the best comedy singers heard in Harrisburg for some time. Mile. Klmina and Co. in "Alt Ala Carte," gave an excellent exhibition in bal ancing. While there were many small fea tures that could have been eliminat ed, the program was the best bal anced, and one of the most enter taining of the year. MAX ROBERTSON.

Since the days of the famous Weber and Fields' Theater, no undertaking has appealed so much to metropolitan theatergoers. It is clas sified as a chummy musical reveue and deals with important events of the day In a satirical and extremely amusing manner. The two acts of tile piece is made up of sixteen novel and brilliant scenes. Originality in theme, music, construction and costuming seems to be the chief aim of the management. The casts comprises many Broadway favorites that includes: Harry Wat son, Jr.. Lillian Lorraine, Jack Nor worth, Laura Hamilton, Joe Herbert, Jr., Joseph Maddern, Marjorie Poir, Jack Edwards, Übert Carlton, Mar garet Adair. Maclne Brown, John Birch, Norma Phillips. Winifred Dunn, Klinor Dayne and a chorus of beauty and distinction. The "Katzen jammer Kids" have been lifted bodily from the pages of the colored supple "Kntrenjnnimer mcnls and planted Kids" behind the foot lights in one of the funniest and altogether pleasing en tertainments seen in many seasons. In a new musical comedy bearing the title "Katzenjammer Kids." which will be presented at the Orpheum, on Tues day, matinee and evening, the many funny characters in this amusing series of cartoons, disport themselves in a manner which is said to cause theatergoers to laugh until they are well-nigh exhausted. The action is fast and furious and novelty follows novelty in lightning rapidity. The play is produced under the direction of Gazzolo, Gatts and Clifford, who have provided a handsome scenic environ ment and a chorus that is claimed will be the talk of the town. The book and lyrics are by David M. Wolff, and Donald 11. Bestor wrote the musi cal score. "Oh. Boy." heralded as one o,f the most brilliant and charming musical comedies seen in New "Oh, Iloy," York in many a moon, riinrmliiK and the fourth of the Mimical series of the New York Comedy Princess Theater musical comedies, will come to the Orpheum next Wednesdely, matinee and night. "Oh, Boy" is by Guy Bolton and P. G. Wodehouse, with the music by Je- romo Ktrn. The score contains eigh teen catchy musical compositions, the most popular of which are: "An Old fashioned Wife," "A Pal Ijike You," "'Till the Clouds Roll By," "Rolled Into One," "Oh, Daddy, Please!" "Flubby Dub, the Cave Man," and "Nesting Time In Flatbush." F. Ray Comstock and William Elliott, under whose management "Oh, Boy" is tour ing. will send here a special company of favorites.

He makes his first appearance as a chauffeur, who ac companies his millionaire employer on a dream visit to the island home of Robinson Crusoe. Friday, as might be expected, is a droll, worthless sort of a character with a strong pench ant for getting into trouble, even in S V£ i an ■ ollt ol - the w ay place.

The 'Golden Medical Discov ery' was especial ly beneficial in one case in par ticular where the mother caught a heavy cold when her first baby was six months old. She doctored quite awhile but did not seem to get any better. She came to me one evening and wanted me to go with her to see another doctor. So we went to his office and the doctor tested her lungs thoroughly; then he asked her all manner of questions. He did not tell her what he thought, but told her to use plenty of milk and fresh eggs and take Cod Liver Oil. When we got outside the office she Durst out crying and said, he might as well have told me the truth, 1 know 1 have consumption. I said, 'Well the doctors don't always know every thing.'

This LOCAL PASTOR HA TRUTHS ABOUT THE WAR; TALKS TO "High Lights of the War" was the subject of a timely, forceful, inter esting and educational talk last night by the Hev. Robert Bagnell, pastor of Grace M. E. Church. He was the principal speaker at the monthly meeting of the Friendship and Co operation Club for Railroad lien. It was held in Eagle's Hall, Sixth and Cumberland streets, and was attend, ed by 100 members, including prom, inent railroad officials frpm Altoona and this city. The Rev. Dr. Bagnell did not mince words, but hit straight from the shoulder when he pointed out the work allotted to every citizen of America. His outline of present c onditions was an interesting feature. He told what the various armies were doing and pointed out the prob able results. He was of the opinion that the war would be over next year, soon after the American Army got busy. The speaker made a strong plea for the American soldiers and urged all present to help in every way pos sible. He called attention to the Day of Prayer on Sunday for the Amer ican soldier boys and expressed a hope that every man do his bit on that day. The Rev. Dr. Bagnell called attention to the many dan gers encountered by the soldiers at the various camps, in the way of temptations, and pointed out ways to overcome this. "Clean soldiers make good fighters," he said, and "with the help of the grace of God we must see that they are given every opportunity to keep clean. Pray fo them, and encourage the soldiers in Zens who will be present are Gov ernor Brumbaugh and party. Mme.

General Superintendent McCaleb said he regretted very much his de parture, but that he would not be far away and would see his friends quite often. He thanked the men for theii hearty co-operation during his of ficial rapacity here and extended his best wishes for their continued suc cess.

A meeting of stockholders of the Philadelphia, Baltimore and Wash ington railroad has been called for November 7. to vote upon leasing the road to the Pennsylvania for 999 years from January 1, 1918. The Pennsylvania railroad owns all but twenty'or thirty shares of the small er road and operates it as the south ern link of its 25,000-mile system. The advantage of the merger, it is. asserted, will be the operation of the road directly by Pennsylvania rail road officials without maintaining a special corps of officers and direc tors. It also will eliminate what Mr. Rea has referred to as a "needless accounting department." Mr. Rea. who is a member of the Railroad War Board at Washington, working with the Council of National Defense in keeping open the rail transportation lines during the war, in citing the necessity for a closer combination or the railroads before the State Railroad Commissions said: "The day has come for the con solidation and unification of railroad systems. No fewer than 2,385 sep arate railroad corporations report to the Interstate Commerce Commis sion, and l hazard the guess that at least 2,300 of them could be merged into the bigger systems with the vast benefit to the public and every one else concerned. "There are still in the Pennsylva nia railroad system about 115 active transportation companies, ail neces sary, as matters now stand, for the conduct of the service. I think we will all agree that this is Just 114 too many. But when we reflect that they represent what were originally more than 600 separately Incorpor ated companies, we can feel that some progress is being made in the right direction." The Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington is only one of the large Pennsylvania subsidiaries to be brought within the direct operation of the parent company within a comparatively recent time. Only a few months ago the Panhandle and the Vandalia systems, subsidiary units of the Pennsylvania Company on the lines west of Pittsburgh, were merged and their individual organiz ations abolished. The Northern Cen i tral likewise was taken over under the consolidation plan and many smaller roads lost their identity in a similar manner. The Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington Railroad pays dividends of fi per cent on its $25,138,000 cf capital stock. This same rate will be i continued under the lease proposal and a fixed annual rental will be I established. The main line of the ; Philadelphia, Baltimore and Wash i ington Railroad reaches from Phila ! delphia to AVashington, a distance of 131 miles. Including branches and lines operated under contracts, leases and trackage rights, the total mile age operated is fi9 8 miles. The main ; line forms the chief stem of commu ; nication for the Pennsylvania pail road system with Washington and the South. whose references to the timely talk by Dr. Bagnell brought prolonged applause; Andrew DilHnger, L. C. Clemson. road foreman of engines. Middle division: Passenger Engineers John Ewing and Edward Ewing; President William K. Drake, William H. Hampton, assistant road forenian of engines; Ira W. Bixler, passenger conductor; Albert R. Michenep. cir culation manager Harrisburg Tele graph, and others. There were also discussions and criticisms regarding efforts to belit tle the principles followed by the Friendship and Co-operation Club by many who were socialistically in clined. Socialism as practiced by some was given a hard jolt. General Superintendent McCaleb. in his re marks, said the organization had justified Its name by carrying out its, principles and that many wrongs were righted because of the oppor tunity for the employer and employe to meet and discuss questions of im portance. During the evening cigars were passed by the committee on enter tainment and the session wound up with an old-time experience meeting. "Katzenjammer Kids" '* Contest. Edl or, Harrisburg Telegraph.

Al Jolson as Friday in "Robinson Crusoe, Jr." > / y . s Al. .Tolson Is booked to appear a the Orpheum Theater, Friday, Novem ber 2. AH usual, Jolson is at the head of a higr musical comedy, said to he a most ambitious and elaborate produc tion. sent forth from the New York Winter Garden —"Kobinson Crusoe, Jr." The entire original cast that pleased Broadway an entire spring and summer, and the Winter Garden's far-famed beauty brigade accom panies the favorite comedian. Among the Great White Way favorites are: D'Grsay, Kitty Doner, Mabel Withee, Kowers, Crooker and Wal ters, Grace and Berkes, Harry Kear ley, William Kinley, Adolph Blome, George Thornton, Trixie Raymond and many others. Jolson is in the enjoyment of the happiest role of his life in "Good Fri day," dear to the heart of childhood. His adventures with cannibals, pi rates. sprites and things that might be Iboked for only on a desert isle, afford unlimited opportunity for fun and frolic. Of course, Jolson has a flock of songs. Among them might be cited. "Down Where the Suwanee River Flows." "Mammy's Little Coal Black Hose," "Yacki Hicki Doola," Tillie Titwillow," "Where the Black eyed Susans Grow," "On the Koad to Wai Kai Ki," and many others, in cluding one that has reached long ahead of the show —"Where Did Itob inson Crusoe Go With Friday on Sat urday Night?" The production, as advertised, is un usually heavy and elaborate, requir ing. with the big cast of nearly 200, a special train for transportation.
