To-morrow afternoon and evening, "The Yellow Ticket." Tuesday evening, December 1, "The Dummy.'* ' ORPHEUM Every afternoon and evening, high class vaudeville. COLONIAL Daily continuous /audeville and pic tures. I . II ll— "The Garden of Girls" Snitr. Moore and George B. Scan lon's burlesque classic, "The Garden of Girls," is the burlesque attraction at the Majestic this afternoon and evening. It is sufficient to say that Snitz Moore and George B. Scanlon, the well-known comedians, have pro vided themselves with a most humor ous theatrical vehiele in two acts. It is said that they are even fupnier than before. A newcomer to the field of burlesque is Miss Alva McGill, the Parisian nightingale, who heretofore has appeared with only the best of musical comedy. Others in the present ing company are Harvey Greene, Flor ence Fletcher, Shaw and Lee, Heloise Horton, Martha (Marcita) Edmoml, Beatrice La Due, Edna Lee and others. A book full of witty lines and inten sely funnv situations is provided. adv. "* "The Yellow Ticket" A. H. Woods, who produced "With in the Law," will bring to the Ma- jestic to-morrow, matinee and night, a new play by Michael Morton, one of England's best known playwrights. It is entitled "The Yellow Ticket" and three acts are laid in St. Petersburg, of the present day. The leading char acters are taken from official and dip lomatic circles in the great Russian capital. Mr. Morton wishes to make clear the fact that while the scenes of his pday are laid in Russia, his is not a Russian play in the sense of being made up from the usual ingredients that go to the writing of Russian dramas. "The Yellow Ticket" has to do with life in modern Russia. It tells the at orv of a young Russian woman, Manm Yarcnka, who comes into the EPILEPTIC FITS SJo§J when the weak nerves thatcausetheu spells are strengthened and keptg in good condition by the use ofl Dr. Guertin's Nerve Syrnpl It helps with the first Dose.fil Safe, sure and guaranteed to given satisfaction.

Therefore, the following explanation is offered. 'The Dummy" is an absorbing story of a typical American youth who impersonates a deaf mute to recover a kidnaped girl from a gang of most sympathetic crooks. It is very exciting and very funny. HARRISBURG is to have the original company, without change, which played 200 nights at the Hudson theatre, New York City, to crowds of Manhattan's most cultured and critical playgoers. "The Dummy" makes a general appeal It delights alike patrons of the orchestra, balcony and gallery. possession of the yellow ticket issued by the secret police of ft. Petersburg for the protection t>f social outcasts. "The Yellow Ticket'-' has had a run of over a year at the Kltinge theatre. Fletcher Harney will have the role of "Baron Stepan Andrew," head of tiio Russian secret police; Leonard Ide will play Julian Rolfe, a young American newspaper man, while Miss"Zola Telni zart will appear as Marya. adv. *** "The Dnnuny" A boy called Barney Cook, who comes from the Bowery, is just now centering the affection of an amused and interested public in "The Dum my," which is coming to the Majestic Tuesday evening, lie is younger than Nick Carter, and smarter than Puck 'leberry Finn, but he bears close kin ship to both of them as a real type of universal boyhood, to be given the glad hand of recognition by every man who has ever been a boy. Barney Cook is a Western Union messenger boy whose eager dream of life is to be a "de teetuff." He has the wisdom of the streets, tho loyalty of a hero worship per, a Bowery vocabulary and the heart of a gentleman—and ho is just fourteen. Don't miss him when he eojnes here, for "The Dummy" is sonietifing more than Barney Cook, a groat big detective play with throb and thrill for the grown-up public and the laughmnker of the year. But, in cidentally, when the evening's enter tainment is over, and the dnte is past, you'll remember Barney Cook as a piece of your own youth tucked into a pQav not soon forgotten. Don't miss "The Dummy"—New York laughed over it from one season to the next. adv. **" At the Orpheum The Orpheum's Thanksgiving bill has made a hit.
