EXCELLENT BILL
AT MAJESTIC
"In the Dark" Is Headiincr
Supported by Other '
Good Acts
"In the Dark," a melodramatic
Bketch with a comedy climax, was
the headline act of an excellent bill
presented at the Majestic theater
last night. Music of a high order
and entertainment highly appreci
ated by a sympathetic audience,
made up a mighty good bill.
A Kitchen Hero—A motion pic
ture comedy that would be better
appreciated if the operator would
know how to run his machine. The
subtitles are flashed on and off be
fore the spectator has any oppor
tunity to read them.
Coleman's Musical Manikins—An
out-of-the-ordinary act with 'ven
triloquism predominant. Two mani
kins play musical instruments and
sing in a way that mystifies the au
dience greatly.
Dunham and O'Mallcy—Two clev
er variety entertainers who fitted
well in their place in the bill. Good
jokes and snappy songs pleased the
audience.
In the Dark—Breathing of the
old-time melodrama, "In the Dark,"
is a bright little sketch with a num.

I One of the many charms to be found
in "The Bird of Paradise." Richard
Walton Tully's play of
"The Iliril life in the Hawaiian
of Paradise" Islands, which comes to
the Orpheum for two
days, beginning to-night, is the man
ner in which he handles the religious
beliefs and superstitions of the na
tive Kanaka. To deal sympathetic
ally with strange things of this sort:
a writer has to comprehend the view
point and reasoning of the people
whom he seeks to portray.
From boyhood Mr. Tully dreamed of
the islands, their strange, lovable,
gentle inhabitants. The customs,
quaint, even in the days of Captain
Cook, to white eyes and understand
ing. And they have not changed an
iota, save on the surface. Kanhoon
ish is still rampant; Tabu is sacred,
Peie still claims her victims, despite
the efforts of the missionaries and the
Insular government.
Any person who knows native Ha
waiian life below the surface knows
that these things always have and
always will exist. It takes ages to
change the temperament of a race. I
Compassionate understanding is
what has made "The Bird of Para
dise" one of the great successes of
the past decade.
Oliver Morosco this season has se
lected Miss Rita Uomilly to play the
role of Luana, the lovable Hawaiian
princess, every portrayer of which has
reached stardom via this part.

HAWUSBURG TELEGRAPH
REGISTRATION OF
18 TO CLASS
IS VERY HEAVY
Draft Boards Working Hard
on Huge Task of Mak
ing Reports
The estimated 9,500 men expected
to register in Harrisburg at the
great enrollment of military man
power yesterday was slightly ex
ceeded, final reports show,
is in the Second district. •* •
The three boards, reported a total
of 9,751 names.
The Paxtang board announced a
registration of 3,730. The Eliza
bethyille board registered 2,378. The
Steelton board at noon announced a
total of 4,132 men. The total for
city and county is 19,991 men.
With the totals all reported to the
State Draft Headquarters, the city
and county registraion of men for
military service will exceed 20,000.
Practically one thousand cards are
expected from residents of Harris
burg and Dauphin county who are
temporarily living In other cities,
and who registered there with in
structions to mail their cards to
their home boards here. These cards
are arriving by every mail.' .
Working on Reports
Officials and clerks of the local
boardrs are busy compiling the lists
of .the men registered. The total
lists will be turned into the State
Draft Headquarters as soon as pos
sible. Reports show that the Third
city board was the first to finish its
report. • Its number of registrants,
enumerated as to aliens, nationality,
and so forth, was turned into the
state headquarters last evening. The
Elizabethville board was the first
county board to complete its report.
The registration here went oft
without a hitch. There were no
troubles or irregularities reported by
any of the boards or precinct regis
trars. Many of the clerks and reg
istrars worked until 3 and 4 o'clock
this morning, thfen they were at
work again, completing the work of
tabulating their cards for reports to
the state department.
To Mail Questionnaires
Registrants have nothing further
to do until they receive their ques
tionnaires. Local draft officials re
ported that they have received no
orders to nihil questionnaires, and
have no information as to the meth
od of mailing them. It is felt, how
ever, that the registration cards will
be filed and the lists made up ac
cording to the age of the registrants,
and questionnaires mailed out ac
cording to classes in the order they
will be called. Information received
front Washington has it that the
men of the 19, 20 and 32 to 36-year
classes will be called first, likely
beginning in October.
Tha largest number of registrants
In the city were enrolled at Board
No. 2. Its total was 4,007, with one
precinct not reported.
City Board No. 3 was next with
3,4 04 men enrolled. City Board
No. 1 reported 2,340 men.
Many at Steelton
The Steelton board will likely he
high among the county boards. At
this board much of the foreign ele
ment of the vicinity was registered.
Every nationality at war with the
Allies, against them, and neither for
or against them, is on the registra
tion list of this board, and on the
roll of the manhood which Is at the
call of the United States War De
partment to aid in strafing the Hun.
Interpreters or foreigners who could
speak English found ready
at the precinct enrollment offices as
interlocutors between the foreigners
and registrars.
City Board No. 1 reported twelve,
City Board No. 2 registered six and
City Board No. 3- a like number of
men who had registered who were
between tho age limits of the first
registration, 21 to 31 years. Nu
merous excuses were given for their
failure to register. Several of the j
men reported they had been in jail,
one was a Mexican who had come
to this country since June 5, 1917,
one had been in a sanatorium at that
time, and several had been in mili
tary service at the time of the first
registration. These names will he
listed and submitted to the state
headquarters along with the others,
and it is likely that investigations of
each individual case will bo made
to determine if there are any cases
of draft evasion.
Episcopal Clergy to
Offer Victory Prayers
At a meeting of the clergy of the
Episcopal churches of the city ar
rangements were made for the co
operation with the people of the city
