Dreams Come True
At Majestic For Two Days

when Dreams Come True which
to the Majestic Tuesday and
Wednesday Nov. 1919 is by Phillip
Bartholomew. author of the two far
cial successes "Over Night" and
Little Miss Brown"
The author has indicated the same
originality in the book of when
Dreams Come True" as he did in his
Traces. He %recounts the story of a
wealthy young man, a new Yorker,
who awakens to find his allowance
cut off on account of his adventures
with a French dancer.
The first act is on ship board, and
shows the boy returning for the par
entail scolding, as n steerage passen-
ger. This setting lends itself to many
singing numbers, the first ensemble
showing a chorus of emigrants of all
na|tionalities indulging in their native
songs and pastimes.
A smuggling plot is interviewer in
the story to which the dream girl.
is an innocent party. All sorts OF
trouble Is heaped upon the pair, until
dreams come true in the final act.
VIM. Pruette, Jr., is the principal of
the cast and will be supported by a
capable company Of musical
artists, a large and efficient
chorus of splendidly young girls will
sing, dance and wear some of the
most stunning costumes that have
graced a musical comedy.

Alaskan Fur Seals,

A tentative annual census of the
Alaskan fur seals just made by DR.. G.
Dallas Hanna indicates the strength Of
the herd as 524, 269 animals of all ages,
compared with 400 ,432 seals in 1918.
The number Of pups born, equivalent
to the number of breeding cows, was
157,172. an increase over 1918 OF 10
per cent In each class. The aggregate
figures for 1919 do not include the
seals taken for their skins.
According to the telegraphlc reports,
22,027 fur-seal skins have been taken
on st. Paul island and 1854 on st.
George island through the regular kill
ing season ending Aug. 10. A special
effort has been made to reduce the ex-
cess of large male seals, with the re-
suit that over 6,400 such skins have
been taken.

BILL HENRY"
1T CRESCENT
Charles Ray Has Excellent
Chance in This Film

Charles Ray, who plays the star
part in Bill Henry" the Paramount
Ince picture, which is the attraction
at the Crescent theatre, in addition
to his fame as a move star, enjoys
a reputation as a handy man with his
fists. When he read the scenario Of
Bill Henry and saw that the big
scene called for a terrific battle at
fisticuffs, he insisted that it be a real
fight.
On the day when the big scene in
Bill Henry was to be filmed over
three hundred fight fans were on
hand for the mill.
Dewitt Van Court was the referee.
Charles Ray and Jack Connolly, his
opponent, appeared and started to
mix it up furiously. The fans howl
ed. They had half expected a fake.
They got as thrilling an exhibition as
was ever staged inside the squared
circle. Ray was staggered once or
twice, but came back strongly.
To be sure, Julian JosepH5on has
written it down in the scenario of
Bill Henry" that Charles Ray win
the fight. but it was a real battle just
the same. Bill Henry" finally lands
the winning wallop and rescues the
girl and her fortune from the grasp
ing hands of the dishonest real estate
agent.
And the star, painting after his ex-
ertions and happy that the scene had
gotten over so well, answered an ad-
mirer's question thus:
DO like a part like BAL Henry
that calls for a bang-up finish fight
like this? You bet! 1t gives me the
chance to get just the exercise 1 need.
1t certainly limbers a chap up. l love
to mix it with bare fists. It's great
stuff, and one more example of the
variety that makes screen acting the
most fascinating game in the world.
"Bill Henry" gives the famous star
ample opportunity to satisfy his love
for variety in his parts. He starts
out as a country agent for a new
electric vibrator that is guaranteed to
cure all ills and bring untold wealth
to the man who sells 1t. Ray is I'M
fortunate in picking the first patient
on which to demonstrate his instru-
ment, as he is a rheumatic and,
s%pringing up in pain as the electricity
from the vibrator strikes his sensitive
nerves, chaseS the young salesman
out of his house in rage.
Ray ext turns his talents to clerk
ing in a hotel. There he has a chance
to show his ability at playing poker
and cleans up a pair of mart "City
fellows" rather neatly. Hearing that
a girl stopping at the hotel is about
