MAJESTIC.

PecnIe who take seriously street ru- mors very often find themselves de- cidedly miSled and a case in point IS inc rumor which seems to persist that all seats for the Eddie Cantor snow Hhake It Snappy," which comes TO town Co open the new PoH Ma5estic theatre Saturday next are practically sold.
 sibly could be and a call at the boX office would diSSipate the rumor- 1ne sale has been a tremendous one but 1he new Majestic has a big capacity and certainly there are mighty deslr- able seat left at the present writing, many fine reservations for the even ing performance and some especially choice ones for the matinee presenta- tion.
 And in this connection it is worth mentioning to those who delay get ting seats that the Eddie Cantor show will play to capacity houses both performances
 As has been mentioned before seat buyers are given the assurance of MT. Po!i based on his written contract with Eddie Cantor's manager that Make It Snappy'' will be produced here exactly as it has been produced on Broadway during its long run and as it will be produced during its Bos- ton run which opens MOnuay next III the Hub city.
 As d matter of fact Cantor has sent on word that he is to try two add1- tional numbers which he has been
  ment and thus one may readily con- ceive that the Make It Snappy' show here will be even better than in New York.
 The work at the Majestic has ad- vanced SO much that 1t could be opened today if a date had been set and the workmen are practically talk ing things easy these final days, something which is unusual with a new theatre for the last minute hus- tie and bustlee will not be in evidence on this occasion.
 Treasurer O'Donnl1 and his assist ants are on duty each day at the Ma 5estic box office from nine o'clock on and are ready to receive orders for the Cantor show for the brillia mt opening of the stock dramatic season which comes Monday night at which time Mir. Po1i will introduce his new Poli Players in ''The Man Whio Came Back and also for the listing of sea son subscriptions by means of which stock patrons may have the same seats reserved for them each week during the season, thus enhancing the enjoyment of the various plays by having the same seat
