August Aramini, and that is the
right name—is an Italian who while
working in the Tiffany studios as a
designer of Cathedral glass was sing
ing at hi« work one day and was heard
by one of the members of the famous
Selwvn & Co. firm. There was a little
conference and Aramini found it pos
sible to realize one of the ambitious
of his life—to cultivate his voice. A
! lyric tenor of wonderful range, sym
pathy, timber and a dramatic quality
i for from the ordinary. Caruso—a dis
i tant relative —heard Aramini sing and
; advised him to take up dramatic work
| with the idea of ultimately going on
the operatic stage, and that is why
Selwvn & Co. selected the big, good
natured and talented young Italian to
play the role of Signor Monti, a grand
opera tenor, with proclivities similar
' | to those which have cost another Ital
i ian "much, oh so much money."
j Selwyn & Co. are sending their pro
duction of Margaret Mavo'a famous
; and uproarously funny farce of life
in a New York apartment house to the
Majestic for a return engagement next

"The Girl of the Golden West"
"The Girl of the Golden West," a
Laskev-Belasco production will be the
attraction for two days at the Regent
| theatre beginning to-day. The great
j play with its dozens of scenes is one
jof the most elaborate productions
j ever filmed and was given a continuous
j run of two years in New York and
has made a distinct hit in all parts of
\ the country. "The Girl of the Golden
West," when it was given its first
I operatic presentation the east contain
, ed such stars as Caruso and singers of
! similar calibre. The [day was later
produced in dramatic form and made
| Blanche Bates famous as an actress.
In the film production the cast is no
j less notable for in it are Theodore
j Roberts, Mabel Van Burcn, House
< Peters and many others. "The Girl of
I the Golden West" is a story of the
1 California gold rush in '4 9 and is said
to be one of the most elaborate pro
j ductions ever staged in California.
"The Girl of the Golden West" will
be repeated to-morrow. In addition to
j the presentation to-dav, "Ham in the
i Harem," a comedy, and "The Maid

Help the Kids Get Their Uniforms
After constant rehearsing that has
equipped them to give a far better, pro
i grain than a year ago, on the occasion
of their last appearance, the Kolonial
Kids, Harrisburg's prize boys-' band,
will start out to-day on an engagement
at the Colonial theatre. Wilmcr &
Vincent have turned the theatre over
to the youngsters for expenses, and all
money that comes in at the box office
over the cost of operation will go to the
i little fellows, who are striving to cre
ate a uniform fund. There is a worthy
object back of the undertaking, anil
the boys arc hopeful that past records
will go to smash for the sake of their
band. There will be three other vaude
ville act« on the bill, and the- indica
5
tion is that the show will come close
I to being the best that Colonial audi-
I ences have seen this season. There are
mighty few cities in the country that
