New York, Oct. 7.—Formal an
nouncement of the receipt of a chal
lenge for the America's cup from
the Royal Ulster Yacht Club of Bel
fast. Ireland, was made yesterday
by Secretary George A. Cormack, of
the New York Yacht Club.
The challenge was forwarded in
behalf of Sir Thomas Lipton, who
named Shamrock V as the yacht to
be used in the races of 1920. No
answer has as yet been made by the
New York Yacht Club, but a favor
able reply Is generally expected.
Sir Thomas inaugurated his fourth
attempt to lift the America's Cup in
1913 with a challenge for a race
the following year. The challenge
was acepted and the challenging
yacht, Shamrock IV, was enroute to
this country under its own sails
when war was declared. Shamrock
• IV put into Bermuda and later
reached this port after the danger

Ernie E. Adams and Henrietta Byron
In The Musical Sensation "Listen Lester"
In the musical comedy "Listen Lester," which enjoyed an> entire year's
run at the Knickerbocker Theater, New York, and the locale of which Is
Palm Beach, Florida, John Cort has lavished money and great pains on
the setting and costumes. "Listen Lester" is said to have clever comed
ians, dancers par excellence and a beautiful chorus to display its fash
ions, which make of It a delightful musical entertainment that sends
everybody away with a satisfied smile. The patrons of the Orpheum are
looking forward with pleasurable anticipation to the presentation of
"Listen Lester" on Friday evening.
KITTY GORDON IN
"I.OVE FOR SALE"
Sincerity of purpose, generous ex
penditure, consumate taste and
proved sense of the values of both
laughter and beauty are said to
mark the return of Kitty Gordon to
the speaking-singing stage in "Love
for Sale," a comedy romance with
music, in which she appears at the
Orpheum Theater to-night, Tuesday
evening, Oct. 7, in a role and amid
surroundings which she describes as
"the most beautiful and the happiest"
of her brilliant career. Already
known as one of the best-dressed
women of two continents. Miss Gor
don this time has surpassed her own
record in this always important field
and the nine gowns by Luclle and
Baron de Mayer which she wears in
her new play cost —exclusive of furs
and feathers —upwards of $20,000.
These amazing gowns mark the new
peak of feminine fashion for society
or the stage and Miss Gordon admits
that she "just revels in them."
APPRAISALS
Have Dark Hair
and Look Young
Nobody can Tell when you
Darken Gray, Faded Hair
with Sage Tea
Grandmother kept her hair beau
tifully darkened, glossy and attrac
tive with a brew of S'age Tea and
Sulphur. Whenever her hair took
on that dull, faded or streaked ap
pearance, this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect. By
asking at any drug store for "Wy
eth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,"
you will get a large bottle of this
old-time recipe. Improved' by the ad
dition of other Ingredients, all ready
to use, at very little cost. This
simple mixture can be depended
upon to restore natural color and
beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound now be
cause it darkens so naturally and
eveirly that nobody can tell It has
been applied—it's so easy to use,
too. You simply dampen a comb or
soft brush and draw it through your
hair, taking one strand at a time.
By morning the gray hair disap
pears; after another application or
two, it Is restored to Its natural color
and looks glossy, soft and beautiful.
Dandruff Surely
Destroys the Hair
Girls—lf you want plenty of thick,
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by
all meanas get rid of dandruff, for
it will starve your hair and ruin It If
you don't.
It doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely.
To do this, get about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at
night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it In gent
ly with the finger tips.
By morning most, if not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications will
completely dissolve ar|d entirely de
stroy every single sign and trace of
it.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop,
and your hair will look and feel a
hundred times better. You can get
liquid arvon at any drug store. It
is inexpensive and four ounces is all
you will need, no matter how much
dandruff you have. This simple
remedy never fails.

I.EO DITRICHSTEIX
lovera of An© acting- the com
reagr!^ent of Mr - Leo Ditrich
ntein for three performances at the
Orpheum offers the best dramatic at
traction of the entire season, for this
actor has no superior on the Ameri
can stage in the portrayal of roles
demanding an intellectual conception
and a subtle and brilliant perform
ance. On Tuesday. Oct. 14. he will
present "The Marquis de Priola," the
daring and sensational play by Henri
Laved an. of the French Academy, in
which he won a remarkable success
|in New York last winter. In this
l play of decadent morals and intel
lectual degeneracy Mr. Ditrichstein
offers a. stupenduous illustration of
the art and finesse of acting. As be
comes an actor-manager, Mr. Dit
richstein brings here not only the
original beautiful New York produc
tion but the original cast intact.
Showing the lighter side of his art,
the star will be seen on Wednesday.
Oct. 15, matinee and evening in an
other New York success, "The Mat
inee Hero." which is a romantic
comedy with the domestic life and
professional aspirations of the actor
as its theme. It is an altogether de
lightful entertainment. The com
pany includes Brandon Tynan, Or
lando Daly, Earle Mitchell. Lily Ca
htll, Ann Mac Donald and Josephine
Hanner.
MISS BACHEI, OR OTHERS
AND THE DOXOLOGY
Heretofore, one of the sacred
creeds tenaciously observed bv pro
ducers. was to keep their plays free
from any ecclesiastical rites. To in
etill the slightest semblance of re
ligious atmosphere in the play was
considered the height of folly. "Peo
ple will not have the church brought
to the theater," the managers have
contended, "inasmuch as they want to
be entertained, not sermonized." And
accordingly, aspiring playwrights
have always avoided the religious
theme, not the issues involved, but
the special rites that are practiced by
any particular creed.
When Rachel Crothers presented
her latest comedy. "A Little Jour
ney, to the Messrs. Shubert, these
managers were very much surprised
to note that In one of the Important
scenes it was Indicated that the nos
ology was to be sung by the entire
company. Miss Crothers' play -
wrighting wisdom was doubted for
the moment and It was only her
previous successes in the theatrical
world that saved her script from be
ing rejected. At first, it was planned
to omit the singing of the Doxology,
end resort to some other means of
furthering the action of the play. As
Miss Crothers was the director, as
well as the author, . the scene re
mained and was produced Just as she
had previously intended.
When the premiere was held out of
town, Mr. William A. Brady labelled
"A Little Journey" a "fllv." And all
on account of the Doxology scene. He
smilingly assured Miss Crothers that
"Broadway would never stand for a
religious song." But the play has
succeeded in spite of all adverse
warning. And one of the most grip
ping scenes In the play, a scene that
has attracted more comment than
a-ny other In the current attractions
of this city. Is the .one in which the
entire company sings the Doxology.
on the top of a Colorado hill. In of
fering their thanks for having been
rescued from a railroad accident.
The extraordinary regenerating In
fluence of this song Is brought out
with such startling dramatic em-
Iphasls. that many of Broadway's
1 most blase and world-hardened folk
thave applauded the scene with a
I fervor rarely noticed In a metropoli
tan playhouse.
"HIS MAJESTIC THE AMERICAN"
"His Majesty the American" is
Douglas Fairbank's new production.
It was seen in a first run last night
at the Regent, scoring an emphatic
hit. Tt is an all-week attraction
which means that this theater will be
a popular place. The new play is
without a doubt the best that Doug
las Fairbanks has been in. It is full
of thrills, strong scenic effects, and
the star has ample opportunity to dis
play his versatility.
There is plenty of good wholesome
comedy, and some path-os. It is an
interesting story which is vividly
told by the manv scenic changes,
which include wißl riding and mob
scenes, and starts with a story of
New York's change from a lively city
to a quiet place. Then comes a
change to Mexico, and finally the
story is transferred to Alaine Swit
zerland, where there are some lively
scenes.
Wlith Douglas Fairbanks is Mar-
Jorie Daw, who is also pleasing in
the new play, and a strong cast of
men and women. Sam Southern is
another artist who is feiven prom
inence. The new play is produced by
the United Artists Corporation, which
includes Douglas Fairbanks, Charlie
Chaplin, Mary Plckford and D. W.
Griffith.
The first of the Pathe-Rolln come
dies featuring Harold Lloyd and
Mildred Davis, to be released since
Lloyd was so terribly Injured by a
bomb explosion—made, of course, be
fore his mishap—will be released
shortly. The comedian Is recovering:,
but will be minus a portion of one
hand. The inimitable team will be
together again in a month.
Jack Plckford refused to make
films for his mother, who business
manages Mary, because he liked
Goldwyn's offer better. He gets SI,BOO

"THE SMARTER SET"
From all accounts, "The Smarter
Set" in their latest musical comedy,
"Children of the Sun," in which
Salem Tutt Whitney and J. Homer
Tutt, play the principal parts, is one
of the most tuneful concoctions of
fun and melody heard in many a
day. The same reliable report credits
the book as being considerably out of
the ordinary for a musical show,
while the management has chosen a
spirited company to interpret "Chil
dren of the Sun," In the same manner
as characterized its previous produc
tions. Especially was it fortunate in
the selection of their famous bronze
chorus which for vocal ability and
winsomeness would be hard to match.
"The Smarter Set" will be the at
traction at the Orpheum next Thurs
day matinee and night, and it is ad
visable to secure tickets early.
Tn the motion picture trade jour
nals are two full page advertisements
of Goldwyn pictures, placed back to
back. One is of "Almost a Husband,"
with Will Rogers, a bully good small
town comedy with a natural come
dian. The other is "Strictly Confi
dential." with dainty Madge Kenne
dy, a comedy of quite another com
plexion. It so happened that al
though they are being released at the
same time, they both were directed
by Clarence Badger. This is about
the first time that two pictures made
by the same director for the same
company have been advertised and
released at the same time.
Charlie Chaplain's next comedy
will strike a new note. It will make
sport of aviation, most of its scenes
being taken in and around airplanes
and up in the air.

i York farce hit which comes to the
] Orpheum Theater on Monday matinee

enal success at the Republic Theater,
New York, where it has been playing
to crowded houses for the past seven
months. Previous to its New York
engagement it had enjoyed a run of
four nu nths in Chicago, where it
proved to be one of the most popular
farces in years. "Parlor, Bedroom
and Bath" is described as a fresh,
flippant, farcical frolic in three acts,
and is the work of C. W. Bell and
Mark Swan, who have furnished it
with one of the most amazingly
clever and original plots seen on the
stage in years.
