MISSED CHANCE FOR LAUGH
Of Course None of the Soldiers Would
Think of Smiling at Serseant's
Mishap.

The drill sergeant was real mus.
tard, and the recruits were having q
bad time. The weather had been very
wet, and the parade ground was still
slippery. In doing a movement smart
ly, as an example to his men. the
sergeant slipped and fell full sprawl.
and naturally the rockies" could
hardly repress their mirth.
Getting up with all the dignity he
could muster, the s%ergeant's eye fell
on Murphy's grinning face.
We'll, you grinning hyenal" he
roared. Whats 'urting you? Do you
see anything funny?"
No, sorr," gurgled Murphy tact
fully. But, shure, OF was just thinkin'
what a laugh we cud have had it been
anywan save yersilf. sergeant"

Probably Had Right Idea.

A traveller entered an inn where a
Quaker sat by the fire. Lifting a pair
of green spectacles and rubbing his
eyes, which looked very infamed. the
newcomer, in one breath. called for
some brandy and made a grievous
complaint about his eyes.
They are getting weaker and weak
err said he. And now even the spec
tacles appear to do no good"
The Quaker looked first at him and
then at the brandy.
Il tell thee. friend. what I think"
said he. IF thou wouldst wear thy
spectacles over thy mouth for a few
months thine Eyes would get we'll
again"

Big Orpheum Bill Tonight.

There will be a diversified bill at the Orpheum tonight and for the ba ,ance Of this week First on the program will be the four-reel comedy "C. O. b., one Of the good old summer time productions. It's a scream, an exhibition run being given yesterday afternoon and the select few at the Orpheum laughed long and muchly. Beside "C. o. D." there will be a Vitagraph fea- ture. "The Battle of Elderbrush,' a California scenic. and a thrilling railroad drama entitled Near Eter- nity"
 "C. o. D. while a comedy has one of the most exciting and thrilling railroad collisions perhaps ever staged. Two passenger trains. run ming at a lively clip, crash right be- fore the camera. Bang, and the big fire.

Double Bill at Coliseum.

Last night that old time military play. The Heart of Maryland, " with Mrs. Leslie Carter in the part Of Maryland. the same role she made famous when starring for Be- lasco on the speaking stage, was the offering at the Coliseum last night and continues for the remainder Of the week. This is one of the or iginal plays founded on incidents of the civil war and is just as good to- day as it was when first produced 25 years ago.
 Tonight Charles Chaplin in "The Fireman" will be the added attrac- tion with the feature. "The Fire men" is one of the comedies pro- duced by that eccentric comedian shortly after he signed up with one company for a salary Of S65O.O0O for the years work.

Marguerite Clark TOnight.

Marguerite Clarks latest screen vehicle. Helene of the North" pre- scnts this dainty star in the most unique characterization she has yet assumed since her triumphant debut in motion pictures, under the man agement of the Famous Players Film Co. This latest five-part feature combines in decidedly novel man. ner the cultured atmosphere of aris- tocratic society circles with the rugged environment of the track less wastes of Northwestern Canada.
 Between these far extremes the drama sways with uninterrupted fascination. and whether in the lim- itless wilds. or the warm, luxurious drawing room. Marguerite Clark is equally effective and enchanting.
 Miss Clark will appear at the Dream tonight and for the re- mainder of the week.

Leonore Ulrich Must Rest.

Lconore Ulrich, the star, who made hit in David Belasco's pro- duction of "The Heart of Wetona' and who played recently at tho Dream, has been ordered by her doe tor to take rest for several months and not to do work of any kind. Miss Ulrich arrived in New York a few days ago after a strenuous sum mer acting for the screen in Los An geles. which left her on the verge of nervous breakdown. She will rest until David Bclasco has the new play which he is working upon ready for her, which will probably be about the first Of the year.

Skagway Has Champion.

Fl. S. Yeomans, champion checker player of all Alaska, still holds the medal and title of being the manip- ulator of the red and black circles on the checkered board in the Territory, says the Alaskan of Sept. 18th. Mir Yeomans and W. R. Gray, Canadian Pacific man of this city. went to the mat last Friday night in a friendly game to match their wits and abilities in board maneuvers. The Alaska champion won by score of 4-1. This does not say, however, that the games were not stubbornly resisted. Mir. Gray moves the circles with adapti- bility and shows that he carries the battle marks of some stiff en- counters in the game.
 Mir. Yeomans followed the Book System of playing, while MT. Gray used the Single Column break away. Yeoman won the first, Gray came back strong and carried the second, the third game was exciting and was filled with many counter moves which kept the opponents on the watch, after stiG encounter the game went to Yeomans. He like wise won the fourth. All who saw the games report that they were in teresting and that both men were on their toes during the entire set. Another game is lowering around in the air but the date has not as yet been announced.

EIeyen Years of Ty CObb.

Tyrus Raymond Cobb recently completed the eleventh anniversary of his major league debut. A kid of IS he went from the obscurity of the Southern Atlantic League. Ty first clad himself in the big league regalia on August 26, 1905. Bill Armor, then the Tiger leader, sent Tyrus to centerheld to- take the place of Dick Cooley, who was in- disposed. While bit nervous and Mustered, Tyrus showed that he had the goods, and he became a regular from that day. His batting aver age for the remainder of the sea- son was only .24O. but in 1906 he fattened this to 1920. and he has been swatting the horsehide way over .SOO-sometimes over 400 ever since

George Cohan fOr Wilson.

George Conan, the comcdian-au- thor-dancer-producer-manager says that stageland is for Wilson for President. He sums the situation up something like this:
 "Mr. Wilson is the greatest put ter across in the world and that is enough in itself to make me strong for him. Although his business is statesmanship and mine is plays, salute him as the best produced in America He has more than made goodwin a cranky company of ac- tors and an audience at times dis tinctly unfriendly. He deserves, and I believe he will have, an uninter- rupted run at the White House"

Looks Like Speaker
 To Finish in Front

Iris Speaker appears to have major league batting honors clinch- ed. The Cleveland slugger is going to supplant Ty Cobb as the batting king of the big show. The margin will nos be great but at the pres ent rate of progress Cobb cannot hope to finish better than within a dozen points of the Cleveland star. In the National, Chase and Daubert are fighting it out for the lead, but there is no certainty that they will hold the coveted position for there are other slugging stars who are just now coming to the front on the Tener circuit.

The hockey situation is already being discussed on the quiet in the east, though nothing has been set tied. New professional players the cast are joining the army right along. It Is understood. however, that amusement promoters are al- ready laying traps for some of the well known lady hockey players of last year, so as to get them to sign contracts for regular tours during the coming season, while some are reported to have received offers from Boston, Cleveland and New York to go as instructors and playlng-managers of ladies' teams to be formed in these places.

to Indicate Vehicles
Turn

II other firms and individuals oper-
ating automobiles adopt the signal
system inaugurated by the Harrisburg
Light and Power Company. motor
driven vehicles soon will notify each
other of their movements on the city's
streets much like ships at sea.
The plan has been adopted by the
electric light company as further aid
toward solving the congested travel
problem and consists simply of series
of blasts or gongs on horn or bell to
indicate the prospective direction OF
the truck or car. On ships the same
system is followed except that the big
sirens of the steamers sound the sig
nal.
Like Ships at Sea
In the sections of the city in which
traffic officers help regulate the flow
of traffic the signal system is not so
important; in the residential district

the approach of a car or other vehicle
from the cross-street is not so readily
discernible until the cars are almost
Upon each other, the new system will
work admirably. traffic officers con-
tend.
The rules are simple. When the
driver of a car is approaching the
cross-street he grasps his horn bulb
and signals as follows to indicate his
direction upon crossing:
"Hon-n-n-k Passing straight
ahead"
"Honk- k-honk-Passing to the right"
"Honk- honk- k-honk-Passing to the
left"
