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.

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

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.

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.

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
