This will be Harrisburg's last op portunity to hear Shaffer for many months as he will shortly go on a Chautauqua circuit for the summer month"- Shaffer has been lecturing throughout Central Pennsylvania towns, being greeted most enthusi astically and has developed a very interesting account of his experiences? in France, including the shooting down of a German balloon and battm plane and his own fall and capture behind the German lines. The Black Devil Band, seventy strong, which will appear at the Orpli eu in to-morrow. The Black matinee and night, we'i l>< \il lland a part of the 360 th Field Artillery Regiment, re cently returned from overseas. This highly trained military band is under the expert leadership of Lieutenant -l. Tim Bryran. a colored composer of note whose songs have been sung all over America.

Other standard compositions on the pro- I gram of the Black Devil Band are Ihe William Tell overture, the Faust Fantasia, and numbers from Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite. One of the favorite, selections which the 350 th Field Ar tillery Blind enjoyed rehearsing while in the trenches before Metz, were excerpts from Wagner's Lohengrin. Probably the lieutenant bandmaster knew that Wagner was exiled by the Germans long before his death. Not only is Lieutenant J.

The colossal religious spectacle, | "The Wanderer," which will be seen at the Orpheum for a. The Wanderer three-day engagement i commencing Thursday, j has proven the biggest sensation in ' years. "The Wanderer" follows the Bibli- ; cal story of the Prodigal Son very j closely, the moral of which can be said to be greatly accentuated by this ! stage presentation, livery advantage] for scenic and costumic effect has been seized. The lirst and third acts, which show the patriarchal home of j the kindly, godly father of the way ward youth, will live long in the memory of ail beholders, for seldoml has a more beautiful, serene stage j picture been displayed. When the t large herd of real, live sheep and ; dogs, accompanied by the shepherds. | eome romping down the hillside, one does not have to be told that David I Belaseo slaged "The Wanderer." Here, is a touch of color and atmosphere! which no other stage director could even approach. Tile scene which lias caused the most discussion is the second act which represents the house of the wanton. Tisha, who leads the Prodi gal to his ruin, even tempting him to r< nounce the God of his fathers. Hen there Is a swirl of life, a wealth of Oriental splendor. a bewildering grouping of myriads of dancing girls and slaves that fairly intoxicate the I senses. The scene beggars descrip tion. And the superb acting of one of the most remarkable casts ever brought here could not be adequately praised in columns. Captain F.ddie Riekenbaeker, Amer ica's Ace of Aces, will appear in the role of a lecturer atj Captain Eddie the Orpheum Thurs-i Itlekentiaekcr Thursday night, April! 17, on which occasion' he will doubtless regule a large audi-I fence with the details of his marvelous I 'exploits, as commander of the il4th> I Aero Pursuit Squadron. During his | talk the stereoptican and moving pie-j tines will play an important part in I picturing some of the most thrilling scenes in which this daring flier par ticipated. Regarding Captain Rickenbacker's service to his country, Secretary of War Baker said: "He wrote notice of America's presence in France across the clouds where the Germans could lead it. He and his associates in the air nnd on the land hastened the ultimate victory of the allied forces." Fern nnd Davis, old favorites, are appearing at the Majestic the early half of this week in an At the original skit entitled "A Mnjcstic Nightmare Revue." Both possess pleasing personali ties. are talented, and put their act over in a delightful manner. Other acts on the bill include Harry Ten ney and Company in a novel and en tertaining singing offering; Kerslake's Pigs, a trained animal act tliat con tains lots of good laughs; The Melani I Five, the Italian Troubadours, in a high class musical offering, nnd Stag poole and Spier, clever variety en tertainers.
