AMUSEMENTS "The Old Homestead" Like the breath of real country air laden with the odor of new-mown hay and suggesting blue skies and open stretches of country "The Old Home stead" comes to the Majestic this aft ernoon and evening. That the patronage •will be large goes without saying, for, although this will be the twenty-ninth season of "The Old Homestead," it is still a potent inapnet and bids fair to continue so far many years to come. The play is as familiaf to the ma jority of theatregoers as a household word. For that reason no description of it is necessary and all that needs to ■be said is that there is no purer, sweet er or more wholesome play in existence, none of which holds the mirror up to nature more truly, and none which has more real inspiration in its every line nnd feature than "The Old Home stead." It is simple of plot, deals with homely interest and is replete with"gen« uine humor. The original production under the personal direction of Frank Thompson, will be seen here. The fa mous musical features arc of the same high order Mr. Thompson has always provided including the celebrated male double quartet and grand ehoir of twen ty voices in the Grace church scene. Adv.* Howe's Travel Festival Imagine, if you can, what happens when our super-dreadnaught the Wy oming, turns loose a "salvo" of all its 12-inch guns and hurles 10,000 pounds of steel through the air two or tnree times a minute. If you can not imagine it, you may see it at Lyman H. Howe's travel festival at the Majestic to-mor row and Saturday, with daily matinees. The romance of industry as express ed in the making of a national cash register constitute another feature of the program. Howe selected this par ticular plant not alone because it is typical of American skill, enterprise and organization but because it is rec ognized the world over as the model manufacturing plant—a monumental realization of an idea and an ideal. The variety of the scenes may be imag ined when it is remembered that 90 trades and professions are engage*! here in manufacturing machines from 8,800 different kin<ls of raw material coming from all quarters of the globe. The registers are shipped to 75 dif ferent countries and protect 33 differ ent coinages of money. The Philippines of to-day and yes terday—the past and present customs, costumes, dances, habits, etc., of a strange people—forms another note worthy subject of vital and absorbing interest, besides many other features of rare charm and beauty, not to men tion entirely new animated cartoons HARRISBURG STAR-INDEPENDENT, THURSDAY EVENING. .TANFART 2S, 1915. which always form such a welcome and pleasant diversion. —Adv.* Stock and Repertoire During the past three years Arthur i Chatterdon, known as one of the most i successful of the younger actors now before the public has achieved enviable fame by his original policy of present ing nothing but the best plays' and giving every care to detail. As it is generally understood, Mr. Chatterdon heads a stock company, but it is a stock company of the kind that has been delighting audiences in New York, Boston and Philadelphia for so long. Stock productions are no longer associated with those given by Teper toire companies. A goo,l stock perform ance has dignity and merit. A fact that enables amusement seekers to see the plava pre*ented in artistic manner at prices within their reach. Mr. Chatter don presents "Kindling," Monday aft ernoon and James K. Hickett's well known success, "A firain of Pust," Monday night. "The Girl in the Taxi" with the tango dances is the attractive offering for Tuesday night. Of unusual interest to the ladies are the ladies' 15 cent tickets for Monday, night. These are limited to the first 200 and obtainable at the advance sale only which opens Friday morning when sale will be on for entire engagement. Adv.* Irvin Cobb At the Chestnut street auditorium tonight Irvin Cobb, .journalist and war' eorresppndent, will give an illustrated | talk on his experiences in the war zone which lie gained while acting a.s staff correspondent ot' the "Saturday] Kvening I'ost." On this occasion Mr. i Cobb will also begin a tour of the large cities of the country under the management of Selwyn Company, the theatrical manager, who have signed a contract with him for an extended period. In connection with the so-1 called talk there will be an exhibition of moving pictures of war scenes which have never K»en shown. The said mov ing picture- have been taken at many places personally visited by Mr. Cobn a few weeks ttgo. The. program is divid ed into three parts, the first being the correspondent's recital of his own ex periences, the second the showing of the pictures, and during the third Mr. Coibb will answer questions propound ed by those in the audience, [providing of course, that there will be nothing asked that might provoke ill feeling or be controversial. Mr. Cobb is one of the best known newspaper men of the day and although a Southerner by birth, his newspaper experiences have been principally gain ed while working on the big New York dailies. Recently he has devoted most of his time writing for the "Saturday Kvening Post," bv which publication he was sent abroaA at the outbreak of the war to act as their staff correspond ent. His articles, now runninig in the "Post," have been widely read and therj can be no question but that ho is one of the most popular writers of the day. Those who have heard him speak say that he is an orator of no mean at tainments and a most capital story-1 teller. Seats are now selling.—Adv.* At the Orpheum For a rattling comedy act of the first water, there is no one act that Keith vaudeville sent to Harrisburg this season to surpass Bogonghi's Mid-j get Rider, appearing at the Orpheum this week. The little comedian attempts all sorts of daring stunts on the horses back and he of course receives some awful falls. The real comedy stunts of the act are due to the fact that the comedian is suspended by means of a very strong wire, so when the little rider misses his footing, lie is left danging in the air. When the horse comes around again the midijet "catch es on'' again and the act proceeds. The act is a veritable scream ami must be seen to be appreciated. Bogonghi's Midget Rider is one of the sterling at tractions supjiorting Una Clayton and company in their excellent comedy drama entitled "Milk." Also there are our old friends Mack and Orth, who are scoring an enviable hit. Music lovers find much to please them in the act of the Trans-Atlantic Trio, two young men and a young wom an in a neat and high class instrumen tal act with singing. O 'Brien Havel and company come in for a biig share of the comedy honors with the great comedy vehicle called "Monday" and there are ono or two other Keith hits that combine into one of the most diverting and most talented shows the Orpheum has seen.—Adv.* At the Colonial Another big production is slated to appear at the Colonial theatre. This lime it is a pretentious Oriental nov elty, unlike anything of the kind we have seen, and is known as Sumika and the Geisha Girls. The members of the company are all natives of the flowery kingdom and they do a very clever -and very quaint act. Some ten Geisha girls are required for the pro duction. The costuming and stage set tings are handsome samples of Japan ese handicraft. Other names of the new vaudeville offering will include the Howell Sisters in songs and dances; Gertrude Arden and Company in a novel company plavlct; and Craig ami Williams, the popular singiiu.; and talk ing comedians. New features in mov ing pictures also go on view to-dav. Adv.* Regent Theatre Have you been to see the famous players at the Regent this week! If not, you will have missed seeing ex hibited one of the finest set of motion pictures it has been possible to put on the screen in succeeding days. Ks pecially strong is the "Typhoon," to day 's Famous Player feature, a para mount program production in six reels, one of the strongest and most interest ing dramas known to fllmdom. Never beifore exhibited in this -city. Adv.* MAJESTIC This afternoon and evening, "The Old Homestead.'' To morrow and Saturday with daily matinees, t''e Lyman 11. Howe Travel Pictures.
