 Herewith are two views of the new Herreshoff defend-S Resolute. The Resolutes rig is narrow and lo1ty rather than large, but, at that, owing to her fine underbody plans, she moves easily through the water and prom ises to be a witch in light or moderate breezes.

2 Vaudeville Acts and 10th Install.
ment "kathIyn" Series
Another week Of crowded houses
prevailed at rthe Orpheum during the
past week when the management OF
the popular Main st. play house had
their hands full in handling the big
crowds every evening. Three extra
good programs were presented during
the past week both in vaudeville and
the latest %phot0plays, Jennings,
Jewell and Barlow "The Pope the
Dutchm,an and the Girl" the big time
vaudeville act that appeared Wednes'
day and Thursday proved a riot and
made a big hit at every performance
when they responded to four encores
at each performance. Franks and ,Ad-
dington ".The Novel Novelty Girls"
were we'll received Friday and Sarur-
day nights. 'The Perils of Pauline"
and ''The European War" pictures
proved two strong features.
Two vaudeville acts will be on the
program for Monday and Tuesday
and come with the best comments,
Cecil Jefferson is billed as "Tha
Southern Girl'' in Southern songs and
sayings. Leo. Pulmage has a new
European Cycle Novelty that is sure
to make hit.
The 10th installment of "Kathlyn'
series Will be shown in two parts, the
title of this installment is 1.-THE War
irior Maid and is said to be n Of
the best numbers up to date, every
one that has, followed the series so
far should not miss seeing Kathlyn
Williams at her best in the 10th in
stallment. Two good commedies will
complete this strong bill.
An account a not be given of the
programs-forst the balance of the week

be secured by, the management for Elk

There will also be a smoking room
for the men, and other conVeniences
too numerous to mention. In fact,
the whole exposition premises are
planned for the comfort and ease OF
all who attend and when once visited
every person will be a booster, for it
is to be the biggest, best, most up-to-
date, and surprising event of the kind
ever held in this part Of the United
States.
Communication Tickets.
The exposition management has
issued communication tickets, 20 in a
book, the price of which is $500. For
one who expects to have a number
of friends who will attend the expo
sition or who has a. number in his
family who will desire to attend, it
is a matter of economy ito purchase
these books. These books have
been placed in the hands of Miss Ha-
eel Owens and Miss Nan Gushing,
also with all banks and drug stores,
where they may be obtained.

THE LITTLE COUNTRY THEATER
Prof Alfred G. Arvold has created


Prof Alfred G.. Arvold has created
a unique feature in the dramatic an.
nails of this state and the nation, in
originating the Little Country The
ater." 1t is best described in his own
words:
"The Little Country Theater pre-
sents a most fascinating appearance.
1t is complete in every detail. 1t is
a large playhouse put under a reduc-
ing glass. It is just the size of an
average country town hall, having a
seating capacity of 200. The stage
is thirty feet in depth, having a pros
cenium opening of ten feet in height,
and fifteen feet in width. There are
no boxes or balconies. In the audi
torium proper the decorations are
plain and simple. The color scheme
is green and gold, the gold predomin-
ating. Three beams, finished in gold
en- oak, cross the mansard ceiling,
the beams projecting down several
feet on each side wall, from which
frosted light bowls and globes are
suspended by brass log chains, the
indirect lighting giving a soft and
subdued tone to the whole theater.
The eight large windows are hung
with tasty green draperies. The cur
tain is a tree shade green velour.
The birch stained seats are broad
and not crowded together. There is
a place for a moving picture machine.
The scenery is simple and painted
in plain colors. It has the Belasco
realism about it. The doors are wood.
en- doors, and windows have real
glass in them. Simplicity marks ev-
erything both on and off the stage.
It is an example Of what can be done
with a village hall of a school room
in any community.
zone of the unique features in con-
nection with The Little Country The
alter is the coffee tower. 1t is just to
the right Of the lower end of the
stage. It, too, is plain and simple.
It's function is purely social. After a
play or program has been presented
the friends of the Thespians are cor
daily invited to the coffee tower and
served with cakes and coffee. Every
thing is done to encourage and ce-
ment the bonds of friendship"

DEATH OF KING CHARLES.

vi NIIN0 To-
Following closely upon the death O
Pope Plus X. comes the demise o
King Charles of Roumania. Worry
incident to the terrible struggle EN-
broiling all Europe doubtless hasten
ed the end of the aged monarch. He
was a good king, influenced great"
by his noble wife, known by her nom
de plume, Carmen SYLVIA" under
which she wrote most charming
verses.
King Charles, the first monarch OF
Roumania, was a Hohenzollern. His
personal sympathies naturally were
with Germany, while his subjects
probably are drawn more to Russia,
because that nation has aided in
building up Roumania.
Never a party to international al
~liances, his motto has ever been used
as an inscription on his iron crown,
"By ourselves alone" Both the Triple
Alliance and the Triple Entente have
been counting Roumania's support.
In 1877, when the Russo-Turkish
war broke out, Roumania concluded
a military convention with Russia,
whose armies occupied her territory.
This nation couples a s%trategical
position in the present war. James
F. j.. Archibald, writing recently in
the Worlds Work, said:
"Roumania will be an important
element, and, if it is possible for her
to remain neutral, she will gain much
in this struggle. Less than four
months ago I had a long talk with
Crown Prince Ferdinand of Rouma-
mia, and, in anticipation Of ONE such
struggle he had advised his uncle,
King Charles, to remain neutral. How
ever, the engagement OF Prince Ferd-
inand's oldest son to a daughter Of
the Car of Russia will have some
bearing on the situation. If Rouma-
MIA remains neutral it prevents Rus
STA from going to Servia's aid except
by a frontal attack through Austria
and Hungary"
