THE ROYAL.

There has been a regular process sion of features at the Royal for more than week past, and they con- tinue to come. These features have made Royal programs distinctive and interesting 10 a marked degree.
 Today il is the great Cines feature in two parts, High Treason" This feature is produced by Geo Kline and the Royal guarantees that Kline never made a better one. It is full of sensation, replete with snap, yigor and vim and remarkably beautiful production in every sense of the word.
 S"lig sends the accompanying reel, d comedy drama, "The Redemption of Railroad Jack" There is comedy aud pathos in this reel and the story is highly moral one.
 The Royal has received the proofs of the recent panoramic picture of Hot Springs showing that only a small section of the city was de- stroyed by the recent fire.

BAR JOURNALIST
 BASEBALL PLAYERS
BALL CHASERS WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO WRITE AC-
 COUNTS OF THE GAMES.

Cincinnati, Sept 24-Owing to frequent complaints received by the national baseball commission and the Baseball Writers association in
 regard to articles alleged to have been written by ball players, the na-
 tional commission today handed dow ma ruling in which it orders that no players, eligible to compete in the worlds series or any city series,
 shall write or pretend to write an
 account of such series for any news
 papers, nor shall any player allow the use of his name over an article purporting to be written by him.
 Violation of this order will result in the infliction of such penalty as the commission may determine.
 The Baseball Writers association of America had recently solicited the cooperation of the commission in preventing ball players from invad- ing their field In the communica- tion to the national commission, President Jackson of the writers association declared Owing to this evil we, the newspaper men. are forced to do something to protect ourselves against growing evil that threatens baseball reporters in pecuniary way 1t also is making the reports of worlds series ridiculous and must, in a way, hurt the series eventually, and 1t further belittles in the minds of the public the trained baseball writer, who labors all the year around as a com petent critic, to be subordinated to novice in the one biggest week of the baseball year, The commission will have the support and cooperation of this association in any move it may make to eradicate the evil that has been discussed"

PANORAMIC PICTURE

J. c. BLASCHKE ADDS 600 FEET OF SEQUEL TO THE REGENT
 FIRE PICTURE.

J. G. Blaschke of the Royal theater whose picture of the big fire of three weeks ago was witnessed by thou sands on its first showing, an nounces that he has just completed the sequel to this picture which will be made a par. of the first film
 These who witnessed he first pic ture will recall that it depicted the fire-wasted district exclusively. That was its purpose, and Mir. Blaschke had sold the picture to a southern exchange. The picture, however, while i. was a splendid fire picture, gave the impression that a much larger district had been destroyed. Mir. Blaschke then began on GOO foot industrial and panoramic pie ture which will be added to the fire film to show that but little of Hot Springs had, been destroyed
 This last film is one of the finest MT Bias. hke has ever made, and it shows the bath houses, leading hotels banks, business houses, thea ters and an entire panoramic view of the city streets.
 This picture will be shown at the Royal at an early date, after which it will be added to the fire film to show the section of Hot Springs de- stroyed, and the magnificent section which remains, thereby giving Hot Springs one of the biggest boosts it has had since the big fire.

New Haven, Conn, Sept, 24-Yale opened it's football seas0n today by defeating Wesleyan, 2l to 0, in a hard fought game on Yale field Last year the upstate collegians held Yale 10 to 2. The blue. while playing rag fedly at critical junctures. displayed considerable latent strength
 There was no scoring until the sec ond period, when Knowles went over the line for a touchdown. Wesleyan braced, and for the remainder of the period played the blue off its feet by a series of brilliant forward passes, but lacked the power to score.
 Yale played somewhat better with Cornish at quarter in the last half, wnen two more toudhdowns were made. Ketcham kicked the three goals from touchdowns.

AT THE PRINCESS.

| The new bill which opens at the Princess at matinee today is one of 'hose decidedly clever vaudeville of. ! terlngs, combining splendid music dahclng comedy and sensational aerial work. Patrons will find this one of those lucky combinations in billing which brings five star acts together on the same program and it will be difficult to choose the head liner.
 The Pla Operatic Trio. composed ol two charming ladies and a man, oIlng 10 the Interstate circuit one of the classiest musical acts it has ever mad the good fortune to book. Their vocal selections are a positive treat, and Miss Edith Ford known as the American Female Caruso, is one of the greatest vocalis+s on the present day vaudeville stage.
 Lewis, Griffith and Lewis will probably feature the bill with their sketch, The Prima Donna. Tad and SouDrette.' It is a charming vaude- Vile playlet, one of the just right Kind and sure to please. Lave Marin and Miss PerCie are not strangers to Princess patrons. They come this year with an entirely new act and with splendid roper tore of new song hits.
 The Monarch Comedy Four. kings ot harmony and fun, are big at traction and a headlner for any bill. Theirs is a distinctive bit of merry run and foolishness coupled with de- ligh-tul melody. They are classy quartet of young men and will be winners.
 The Flying Geers, an entirely new and novel aerial act, accomplishing the most difficult feats with appar- enuy little effort They seem to defy every known law of gravity and lear IS an unqnown quantity to them.
 Four of these acts have music as the predominating element, with plenty of comedy and pretty cos. tunes, and the acrobatic number is a sure fire hit. 1t is big bill A classy offering.

EV- erything from start to finish IS brand new. and only those members of last years company who were eX- ceptionally clever have been retained.

The other is entitled Who's Boss, or Tanning the Militant and will have Eddie Mazier and little Major Nowak for its principal fun-makers. There is also new song and dance number conceived and staged by Pete Detzel, which he calls "The Ebony University or Class Day on the Campus" Like last years dane ing act with the show, this is a terpschorean novelty. which in eX- pert and original dancing tells it's story as plainly as though words were used
