WIN "FEDT PENNANT '
Indianapolis Captures Second Straight;
Pennant in Close Finish —Team's
Attack Brought Flag
Indianapolis, I ml., Oct. 8. —Bv win
ning from ft. Louis yesterday the In- !
dianapolis Federal League team for the
second time in two years captured the
Federal League pennant.
To Manager ''Whoa, Bill." Phillips.
tJie "Silent Leader" of the team, who
also was at the helm of the club last
year, when it won the lirst (lag of tiie
le-ague. is given credit, in a large meas
ure, for the winning of the second
championship. He, however, ascribes
the victory to his players. The feature
of the local team's work this season
its strong attack. Yesterday's vic
tory for Indianapolis, while Chicago was
losing two games, gave the local team,
which was half a game behind, a one
game lead.
President Gilmore, of the Federals,
has announced that lie will challenge
the winner of the world series on be
half of the winner ol' the Federal
league pennant, but there is little hope
that a series can be arranged.
The Federal League ra • was hard
fought from start to finish, nearly ev
ery team at one time or another taking
•part in a rally that gave it an appar
ent chance for the Hag. The addition
of Charlie Carr, the veteran, |ut such
batting strength into the Hoosier line
up that Indianapolis began to climb in j
June, and 011 June Iti a double defeat!
of Baltimore by Kansas < ity and In- j
■dianapolis' win over Pittsburgh gave j
the Hoosiers the lead. .
The Chicago team was 011 to;> in the
last few days until a double defeat by ,
Kansas City in Tuesday's game pushed'
Tinkei's men into second place, as In
dianapolis beat St. Loais.
Leading factors in the Indianapolisj
victory were tui pitching of Fulkenberg
and Kaiserliug, the batting of i;s team I
in general and the all-around playing |
of Benu.e Ka'jff, who led the league in 1
stolen bases and for the greater part
of the season was leading batter.

"To-day"
"To-day," George Broadhurst s and
Abraham Schomcr'a powerful modern
drama of New York life, Which ran a
season at the Forty-eighth Street thea
tre, New York, comes to the Majestic
this afternoon and to-night. The plav
tells the story of a young couple, Fred
erick and Lily Waguer, who are typical
of modern life in New York, in that
the man is bending every energy to
make money fnd the woman to spend
it, and they are living beyond their
means. The man is a tine fellow, who
has made a great deal of money in dar
ing real estate speculations. The-wom
an ie a selfish little fool, bent on get
ting into society, vain of her good
looks and of her reputation for always
kjping dressed in the very extreme of
style. Harry Von Tilzer, the producer,
has provided a magnificent production
and a cast of notable players, includ
ing Arleen Hackett, Hailett Thompson,
Marie Reichardt, Anton Ascher, Marie
Bantes, Arthur J. Wood, Marie Burke,
Sarah Hubbard and Frank Stone. Adv.
The Fay Poster Company
The famous Fay Foster and big com
pany of well-known stars, comedians,
singers and dancers will appear at the
Majestic to-morrow, matinee and night,
in two rollicking burlettas. All the
scenery used in the production is car
ried by the company and many new
and original mechanical and electrical
effects of a startling nature will be in
troduced. The costumes worn by the
lady member* of the company are said
to be the most elaborate seen this sea
son and were designed by a well-know u
creator of fashions of one of the fam
ous establishments whose ideas are cop
ied all over the world. Adv.
' My Best Girl"
I With what is claimed to be one of
the best casts ever assembled for mu
sical comedy nud, judging from the past
records of the players, the statement, is
made truthfully, "My Best Girl," the
Ohanning Pollock-Retinold Wolf-Clifton
Crawford-Augustus Barratt musical
i play, which scored an emphatic success
; ai the Park theatre. New York, comes
| to the Majestic Saturday, matinee and
j uight. Victor Morlcv, who is well re
membered because of his capable, work
in "Three Twins" and "The (Quaker
Girl,'' deservedly enjoys featured dis
tinction with the company, and in his
support are a score of well-known play
ers, a goodly-sized and appearing chor
us, together with an especially aug
mented orchestra. "My Best Girl" i-<
a bright, breezy American farce, well
punctuated witn enjoyable musical
numbers. The story is as unusual as it
is interesting. Adv.
"Every Woman
The largest musical and dramatic
production which has ever been housed
by the Majestic theatre will be offered
on Monday, afternoon anil evening,
when .Henry W. Savage will disclose
his enormous production of the dramat
ic spectacle, " Every woman." Over
1 10 people appear in the various ensem
bles of the famous play and the organ
ization is accompanied by a special
symphony orchestra. It is without
doubt the most sumptuous production
which Henry W. Savage has ever sent,
on tour. "Everywoman" has been
' witnessed bv lour millions of Americans
and it has been played iu five foreign
' countries. It is an absolutely new idea
in theatricals and partakes of the na
ture of grand opera, musical comedy
and drama. This is the only " Every
' woman" company touring America and
' the cast contains several members of
' the original organization. The seat sala
' opens to-morrow. Adv.
'' The Traffic''
Over 1,000,000 theatregoers have at
tended performances of "The Traffic"
since its initial presentation one year
ago, and most of them have enthusi
| astically applauded the portrayal of the
unfortunate Agnes Berton by the clever
young emotional artist, Miss Bessie
, Sankev, who will head the company
presenting "The Traffic" in this city
t at the Majestie next Tuesday and Wed
nesday and Wednesday matinee. The
, production carried by this company is
one of the most complete on tour this
season, the tour big acts being shown
, exactly as during the record engaga
, ments in the larger cities. Adv.
At the Orpheum
The gem of purest ray serene of the
Orpheum's new season is Irene Frank
lin, who may be called a metropolitan
favorite, for she undoubtedly is. but
that doesn't mean that she is thought,
of in any less light in Harrisburg. Her
popularity is attested to by the big au
diences and immense receptions at each
performance. And right here we mu-t
bear in mind that other old favorites
are here this week too, no less than
our friends Frank Milton and the nifty
Belong Sisters, presenting a revised
edition of their great comedy sketch
"Twenty Minutes L«ayover at Alfalfa
Station." The girls are spirited an i
1 good to look upon, wearing some strik
ing costumes to a nicety, while Frank
Milton keeps the house convulsed witii
his "rube" gags and side-splitting an
-1 tics. All that remains of the old act
is the station idea and Mr. Milton is
also retained as the man of all jobs,
| with a special hat for everything he
does. But the lines are vastly differ
ent, the situations are new and the
. girls sing. But the well known efforts
of this trio are always enjoyed in Har
risburg, for they seem to have a warm,

' for that matter, the hest things this
I season.
Miss Franklin is an artist to her
| finger tips with a manner and style of

I Miss Franklin sings them and I be

j old song she might choose to sin;j.
i Her new numbers are delighting Orphe
| um audiences immensely and the}' are
j equally as good as those she sang here
I two seasons ago, if not better. Tone.v
| and Norman, young man and woman in
lan eccentric song and comedy turn,
■ are coming in for big honors on the
! current offering too. Adv.
