MAGICIAN THURSTON
AT ORPHEUM THEATRE

Mystery deeper and more perplex
ing than the feats of Rudyard Kip
ling's sorceress of the Indian plain
will be presented at the Orpheum next
week by Thurston, the magician. He
is not content to go along year after
year with the same stereotyped per-
Torrance, as was the custom of magi-
clans in the past. Thurston's clever
brain is ever originating new mys-
teries, and his offerings this season
constitute an entire new program, and
the best in many respects ever shown
by him.
One of the irresistible charms of a
Thurston entertainment is the drol-
lery, quaint humor and refreshing
comedy of the magician. In most
shows of this nature the quickness of
the magician's hand merely deceived
the eye, but in Thurston's perform
ance the eye says. He did; I saw it,"
while the brain declares, There is no
such thing" Surprises come thick
and fast from the moment the cur
tain rises, each achievement seeming
more remarkable than the one preced-
ing.
The most marvellous mysteries
among his all new program are
BALKAN and His ASS" the great
donkey illusion, in which donkey
and it's rider instantly vanish, only to
reappear in an unexpected manner;
1.-THE Pekin Palaquin," Chinese
mystery of oriental splendor; 1.-THE
| Shadow People," in which the ma
| terialization of mans astral form is
demonstrated; 1.-The Bangkok Bun
galow" a Lama's dream of astral
| power: 1.-The Chair of ASIA a re-
Ginning Juno" defying human en-
| durance, and 1.-THE Daylight Ghosts, "
mystical phantom playlet of Spook-
| land.
Thurston has added a host of new
| sleight-of- hand tricks, in which he is
| quicker, more dexterous and moro
amazing than ever. His perform.
ance is one of the few now before the
public which can be sincerely recon-
mended for the enjoyment OF the chill
| dren, his programs are highly instruc-
| tive for those who have keen eyes and
| quick brains.
Novelty is the spice OF life, and fol-
this reason Mr.. Thurston has import.
ed the famous Monte Myro Troupe 81
italian pantomimists. who revive thu
glory of the ancient pantomimic pas
times especially for the delight of the
children.
Mr.. Thurston will present to every
| lady attending the matinees, excep
Saturday, a complete horoscope o.
her life.

BURLINGTON co. PLANS
FOR UPLIFT OF WEAKLINGS

MOUNT HOLLY, N. J., Sept. e.
Active workers in the cause of prac-
teal eugenics are organizing Burling-
ton county under a plan of segrega-
ting and training the feeble-minded
by the colony system and many per-
sons familiar with conditions in the
pines" are interested in the move
ment. The foundation for this work
Is based upon Miss Elizabeth S. Kites
recent disclosures of the lamentable
conditions in South Jersey and her
bringing to notice the fact that Bur-
lington county has special need to
bestir itself. The first meeting in the
movement was held at the home of
Mrs Adna Anderson, at Pemberton,
and another was held today at the
home of Mrs. Esther Strawbridge-
Brophy at Moorestown.
This Is the first movement of its
kind in New Jersey, and 1t is felt that
Burlington county is a good begin
ming point. The cost of establishing
such an institution is estimated at
$500, and an effort is to be made
to raise this amount by private sub
scriptions among people of the county

There will be abundant variety in
the vaudeville program offered at the

"0UO VADIS" TO BE SHOWN
AGAIN AT THE NEWARK

"Quo vadis," the superb photo
drama reproduction of Henry Sem
kiewiez's world famous novel, has
been entertaining immense audiences
during the past week at the Newark
Theatre. So much interest has
been aroused by this engagement
that it has been deemed advisable
to extend il a second week, begin
ming next Monday afternoon.
Aside from the many spectacular
features there is an undeniable fas-
cination about the story of Vinitius's
passion for the sweet Lygia and the
old adage that the course of true
love never runs smooth, etc." is
proven as far back as A. D. 66 and
SIS by this very picture romance. 1t
is human. and human nature is the
same today as it was in the days Of
Nero and all the other Caesars and
Roman emperors. And that it what
the public likes, whether 1t is novels,
dramas, paintings or proto dramas.
There has been much wonderment
at the magnitude and beauty of some
OF the scenes, notably the interior and
garden scenes. But the locale is Italy,
where landscape beauty is still a
world sight The Cines Company, of
Italy is composed of many of the
wealthiest men of Rome and the Bank
of Italy is also said to be largely in
terested in the company. Many of the
wealthy nobility are stockholders and
when these pictures were being made
the stockholders gave special permits
sion for the use Of their gardens and
palaces. By this means many of the
gorgeous scenes were produced with
comparative ease, whereas to have
built the grounds and palaces special
ly it would have taken several million
dollars and rendered 1t business i'm
possibility.
Special permission had to be OBJ
tained from the Royal Cabinet for the
use of some of the buildings and as

DIVERSIFIED BILL FOR
PROcTOR'S PARK PLACE

Always on the lookout for the new
and novel in the vaudeville world the
management of Proctor's Park Place
Theatre has obtained for the corniL g
week another feature act which is
said to be one of the most starting
dramatic sketches seen in recent
years.
1t is called 1.-The Auto Chase" a
thrilling tabloid drama in three
scenes, revealing an intense story of
heart interest. The story of the play
let is laid in New York and the in
cidents upon which it is based are
said to have been taken from actual
life. real automobile is employed
in one of the scenes, and the effect
is described as vividly realistic. There
are nine clever actors in the ca st
presenting The Auto Chase" and the
characters are of the clear-cut, we'll
defined and sharply-drawn metro
politan type.
But The Auto Chase" is not the
only big act on the Proctor bill next
week. The entire program is replete
with good things, all high-class num-
bers, among them Kelly Pollock, in
screaming chatter sketch in which
the funny talk flies fast and the
humor is keen and bright. Frederick
Slemons and company present a new
comedy act, entitled Liz" and Han
lon and Clifton will be seen in a
unique act of laughter, entitled THE
Unexpected"
One of the cleverest entertainers on
the vaudeville stage is Billy Rogers,
who will be seen in a series of very
remarkable limitations. Rogers is an
inimitable musical mimic, and is said
to be the only individual possessing
ability to present exact reproductions
of the tones of almost every musical
instrument, as well as birds, beasts
and humans.
Another exceptionally fine act on
the bill is William Friend and Amy
Lesser, in a very funny comedy
sketch, THE Butler and the Maid "
Mr.. Friend is the comedian who
starred recently in THE Quaker Girl. -"
Louis Stone the "topsy -turvy
dancer" does every kind of an aero
batic dance imaginable. He dances
upside down, half round or some I'M
heard-of position. One of his remark
able antics is his dancing with his
feet against the dashboard of a wagon
which is harnessed to him and drawn
about the stage when he walks on his
hands.
