WALNUT STREET THEATRE

On Monday, October 9TH, Alexander
Carr began limited engagement at the
Walnut Street Theatre, Philadelphia, in
Louisiana LOU" Harry Askin's musical
comedy success which has just terminated
phenomenal run of $50 performances in
Chicago, and comes here direct with the
original company and production intact
Heading the cast in support of Mr.. Carr
is Sophie Tucker, who has a legion of
friends and admirers here Other we'll
known names in the company include
those of Bessie De Vote, Henry Hanlon,
Helena Salinger, Robert O'Connor,
Eleanor Henry, Lerter Crawford and
Burre1 Barbaretta. The chorus is a
typical Askin one; radiant of face,
sprightly of limb, clear of voice and
good1y to look upon. And there are about
four bakers dozen of these fresh Young
beauties, recruited from the LaSalle's own
school for stage development. Louisiana
LOU reioices in book as well as music.
The former is the joint work of Fred
erick Donaghey and Addison Burkhardt,
and the score is from the facile pen of
Ben. NJ Jerome. The tale is along the
always familiar trail of '1ove will find
way" 1t has Mardi Gras setting, and
there is no limit to its accepted oppor-
LunlueS LOT comedy laughter, human
color schemes and musical advertisement.
The scene of the first act is in the old
French quarter in New Orleans, and the
second on a magnolia empowered rice
plantation, short distance up the Missis-
sippi Into these two parts have been
crowded carnival of waltz songs, rag
time and marches which are now being
whistled and played all over the country.
Mr.. Carr is credited with the hit of his
career in sort of David Warheld musical
comedy roll; while Sophie Tucker has
sung her title clear as the MARY Garden
of Ragtime. " Certain it is that Louis
lana Lou" was the seasons theatrical rage
in Chicago, recalling 1.-THE Merry Widow"
craze of several seasons ago. adv.

After Judge Voorhees, had dismissed the

offered motion that the court order the

holders. Mr.. Palmer commended that the
charges had all been substantiated as was
shown by the report of the expert and he
thought the expense should not be placed
upon the shoulders of the petitioner who
had started the investigation.
Budd NJ Rigg objected to this pro-
ceeding. He recalled the fact that a
special committee had investigated the
charges against the insane asylum and had
made report which was favorable to that
institution. MIR. Rigg took up the charges
of exceeding the appropriations and during
his remarks admitted that there had been
such action by the Board of Freeholders.
This remark caused Judge Voorhees, to
look up quickly and he asked Mr.. Rigg
who he was representing. The latter said
he had been solicitor of the Board for
three years. As this brought him within
the time that the charges cover the court
suggested to the young lawyer that he
was making some admissions that might
make him uncomfortable later, as the

Good Game of Base Bail.


A number of Mount Holly enthusiasts
went to Florence Saturday with the
expectation of seeing a good game of base
ball and they were not disappointed. The
contest was with Beverly, the reconstruct
ed team of the Delaware River League.
When it looked as If Beverly would have
to drop out of the contest for the county
championship young man named Poth
stepped In and put team In the field that
was worth the cost. Had 1t been earlier
IN the season the championship flag might
have been flying further down the river
than where 1t now floats.
Beverly and Florence have been striving
to Guido each other for some time and the
games between the two clubs have been
full of snap and the scores have been
close. Saturdays contest was no excep-
ton.
Sweeney pitched for Florence but he
was quite nervous and unsteady In the
first four innings. He is generally In that
condition when he faces Beverly. In the
first inning he sent two men to base on
balls, but he kept the side from scoring.
Charley Peacock was the first man to bat
for Florence. He hit the first ball and
sent it down third base line, but could not
get beyond first base on the hit. While
at that station Peacock became very
venturesome and a quick throw by
Beverly's pitcher caught Charley and he
was forced to retire.
Matters progressed this way until the
third inning when Beverly scored run.
In the seventh one of Florence's heavy
hitters sent ball to right field. The
fielder made long run, got his hands on
the ball but could not hold 1t and the
runner made second base. The next man
up was known to be a good batsman, and
Beverley's pitcher made mistake In not
walking him. AS 1t was he delivered a
ball that again went into the right field
section and the man at that station
| fumbled It, The man on second went
home. This tied the score and the game
ended In the ninth inning owing to dark
ness, neither side being a winner.
There were some good plays and some
poor ones. Beverly made a double steal
which apparently dazed the Florence
catcher, who looked at the man going to
third and neglected to throw the ball to
that base, while the fellow on his way to
second did not do much more than walk
Charley Peacock had splendid chance
to win the game. The bases were full and
two men out. A nice hit would have
meant run. One of Charley's usual long
drives would have cleared the bases, but
Charley struck out amid the signs of his
hackers.
| Beverly lost the game through the
daring Of one of its runners, who tried
to steal third with only one man out. He
was nicely caught. The plays which fol-
lowed would have safely landed him at
the home plate.
Bob Black umpired at the bases. He
had many close decisions but he gave
satisfaction In all instances.
The two teams will probably play again
next Saturday.

CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE


Among the many splendid works given
at the Chestnut Street Theatre, Philadel-
phia, in the successful career of the
Orpheum Players, Frances Hodgson
Burnett's really great play, where with
consummate skill, she has dealt with the
highest to the lowest depths of humanity
in THE Dawn of a Tomorrow has
brought to notice in the past week, the
superior art of the members of this organ
nation, and with it, the clever mechanical
achievements in realism of production
all of which was thoroughly appreciated
by vast audiences at every performance
As successor for the week of October
I4th, Eugene W. Presbys play, ''The
Right of Way dramatized from the
favorite novel of Sir Gilbert Parker,
relating to Canadian life and of the same
name, proved national success with Guy
Standing and Theodore Roberts in the
leading roles, about two years ago, and
will. doubtless, find favor with the patrons
of the Orpheum Players. The story is of
intense interest and serves to introduce a
number of well-known characters. 1t is full
of action and realism from first to last.
Next week great play SHAM" adv.

Not alone in this county is he appreciated
but good words are spoken for him In all
parts of the state. Honest in every move,
Independent and refusing to bend the knee
to those who attempted to dictate his
course against his own judgment and that

expressing himself and steadfast In stand
once taken Blanchard 81. White has shown
himself to be a servant with whose ser
vices the people ought not to dispense.
He is not alone the candidate of the
Republican party; he is the candidate of
the people. On party matters he has stood
by the Republicans as he should have
done, but In matters where there has been
general interest he has studied the wishes
of his people and has carried them out to
the best of his ability. No advantage
will be gained by not electing Mr.. White
