Under Cover" •
At the Majestic Wednesday, matinee
and night. Selwvn & Company, pro
ducers of "Within the Law," will pre-1
sent "Vnder Cover." a melodrama of
smart New York life by Roi Cooper
Megrtie. This is the play which holds
the record for long runs in Boston,
having played for thirty-one weeks at
the Flyjnouth theatre, and it has al
ready passed its 200 th performance in
both New York and Chicago, in each
of which cities it bids fair to remain
until late in the spring.
In "Under Cover' the author has
interwoven with his story of customs
fraud and secret service' methods the
account of a woman's love and a battle
of wits. The story tells of the attempt
of tihe customs agents to discover the
smuggler of a valuable necklace, but
they are handicapped by the social and
political prominence of "those suspected.
Ordinary means cannot be employed,
and in order that he may get in touch
with the suspects the inspector traps a
young womau into agreeing to become a
secret service agent. The woman is
daring and clever and to shield a
Nounger sister and the man ahe loves

contrives in the battle of wits to best
the shrewdest detectives of the service.
There is an astonishing denouement ;n
the play which makes it one of the most
talked of dramas produced in many
years. Selwvn & Company have en
gaged an excellent cast to appeal here
in tllie plav. ' Adv.*
"When Dreams Come True"
Philip Bartholomae's dreams seem to
be coming true these days, at least in
the material sense of pleasing audiences
who are in search o* something light,
amusing and at the same time of suffi
eient merit to distract attention to
more serious things.
In conjunction with Silvio Hein, the
provider of the music, Mr. Bartiiolo-,
mae has put forward in "When Dreams
Come True" an interesting rival of the
musical plays which have gone before
and he has managed to inject a satis
factory amount of some of >,rn charac
teristics of his comedy essays. Along
the produciag line the stage manager
lias likewise done well in costuming, in
the selection of specialties and the set
tings generally, in addition to the man
parts, which are all taken bv players
well enough known to draw on their
own accounts.
In the cast there is individual popu
larity as well as merit. Frederic Sant
lev, as "Keen Hedges," is one of the
most capable musical comedy juveniles
of the present time, while Margaret
Grae, as Beth, is the possessor of a
pleasing personality and sweet voice.
For comedy work there is Jack Mun
dv, as "Hercules Strong," a detective,
and Connie Mack, as "Matilda," the
country girl, is always a sure laugh
producer.
"When Dreams Come True" will be
seen at the Majestic Thursday, after
noon and evening. Adv.*
Sale of Elk Seats To-morrow
The 3.".1e of reserved seat tickets for
the three performances to be given
Friday and Saturday by the Carlisle
Elks' Theatrical Association will open
at the Majestic theatre box office to
morrow morning. All those who have
purchased tickets from the members of
the Harris'burg Klks, whose social com
mittee is bringing the neighbors to
town, can ihave these tickets exchanged
for reserved seats any time after the
reserved seats go on sale. The Carlisle
Opera House was crowded to the doors
last night, when the first performance
of the new musical revue was given,
and many Harrisburgers who were
among those present returned home
with the most glowing accounts of the
affair.
They declare that tihe show sur
passes that which was given by-the Cat
lisle Elks last year, and if that is true,
Harrisburgers can rest assured that one
of the best treat* of the season is in
store for them. The Carlisle Elk ama
teurs rank among the very best ama
teur players in the whole State, and
no other aggregation of amateurs ever
attempt shows on the extravagant
scale that they do. It is declared that
the songs are the very latest, and if it
were nothing e'se hut the gorgeous
! gowns displayed by the female imper
sonators, the show would be well worth
seeing. Leo Mac Donald. who has di
rected tihe production of all previous
Carlisle Elk shows, set a new mark for
himself in this vear's revue. Adv.*
At the Orphcum
In order to find out just how bril
liant an entertainment with the title,
"Safety First," can be, one will have
to see the Orpheum's splendid headiin
er this week. To observe the phraso,
one will do wisely to get to the play
house early in the week, or at least
make an early call on the box office, to
insure good seats to witness it. In
other words, "Snfetv First" comes to
the Orpheum laden with recommenda
tions that easily brand it rnc greatest
achievement in tihe way of a .Musical
comedy that vaudeville has seen. It
played its initial engagement at Scran
ton last week and its success was noth
ing short of sensational. It will also
be noticed that Harrisburg will tie priv
ileged to see the production !>efore
New York audiences do, for it
from here direct to New York City to
occupy the headline positio-i on the
vaudeville bill at the gigantic I'aiaee
theatre.
Also our old favorite. Viert Levy, the
celebrated cartoonist, returns after H
three-year absence. Mr. Levy is tne
cartoonist who draws by a amitli elec
tric contrivance placed on a table, and
the result is shown on a screen many
times enlarged. Also, he is the car
toonist who whistles, and has the bouse
whistle with him, and he writes many
funny expressions on his picture while
he is working on it. Mr. Levy is a
clever artist and his offering is alto
gether delightful. Other big nan.es of
the bill include Canto and Leo, Irene
rind Bobbie Smith, Burns and Fulton.
Ford and Truly, and Scamp and
Scamp. Adv.*
At the Colonial
"The Five Komical Kops," offering
a very funny variety act with srecial
scenery, will be the lea,ling attraction
of, the Coionial's new bill. The Kops
are all comedians of ability and they
have certainly thought out a novel idea
in which to display their drollery and
foolish antics. Critics have declared
this attraction to be one of the ,'irest
cures for tihe blues that any one could
wish for. Another Keith act of impor
tance 011 this bill will be the uppear
auee of Charlotte Ijesley and Arthur
Lipsin, presenting "The Prima Don
na and the Count." Wopm:in and Hor
ton, singing and talking comedians, and
llazel Moran, the girl and the lariat,
will complete the roster. Interesting
"movies" will also be included in the
program. Adv.*
At tho Regent Theatre
"The Country Mouse," a four-reel
comedy written and produced by Ho
bart Bosworth, will be shown at the
Recent theatre to-day. It is a. brilliant
3
play of political rand social life. The
role ol' the wife, in "The Country
Mouse," is played with great skill and
spirit by Adeie Harrington. l Ho hart
Boswortli plays her husband and the
others in the cast include Myrtle
Stedman, Marshall Stedman, Rhea
Haines and Charles Haydon.
A brief synopsis will give you an
idea of this production: Billy Balder
son, (Hobart Boswort.li), is elected to
the Legislature ami takiing his wife,
"The Country Mouse," (Adele Far
rington) with him, moves to the cap
ital where they take up the social life.
An invitation to a twill and reception
being accepted, Billy leaves his wife
at home and goes alone. Addie quieklly
enlists the services of a proprietor of
a beauty parlor and their result is
such a complete transformation that
she can hardly believe her own eyes.
She appears in the ball room as a won
derfully charming and brilliant wom
an.
The denouncement is cleverly turn
ed to a comedy finish and the picture
closes happily."
In this sprightly day and age it has
developed that it is essential for wives
to be sprightly. The job of helpmate
has ceased to be merely utilitarian and
has become ornamental as well. A wife
must mow keep etep with her hus
band's demands cosmetically as well
as culinarically, or else she will slip
right out of the possession. These
Doris Blake reflections develop after
an observation of "Tho Country
Mouse," which chronicles such a sit
uation, and the wife's surmounting of
it. The little lesson is sent home
pleasantly and convincingly, spiced an
with the bits of comedy that found
audible echoing in the observers.
