At Local Theaters

At the Murray. The popularity of the Cutter Stock company seems to be of the un waning sort, inasmuch as the company is now on Its ninety-eighth week, playing to audiences that are increasing in size rather than diminishing. In the cities where this organization has been playing, scores of persons have been unable to gain admittance and the same conditions will likely prevail during their engagement here at the Murray theater commencing with matinee today on which occasion "Thorns and Orange Blossoms will be produced. During the intermission six high class vaudeville acts will be introduced. Matinee daily. Palace Theater. Mr. Ernest Renk, a most popular singer, has been secured to sing this week at the Palace Theater. In addition to the illustrated song there will be three films.

Mr. White was born in Philadelphia on July 10, 1840, and at the age of eighteen was graduated from the Central High School as bachelor of arts, and five years later received from the same school the degree of master of arts. In the early part of 1870, Mr. White accepted the position of private secretary to Mr. Jay Cooke, the head of the banking firm of Jay Cooke & Co. The firm closed its doors on the 18th of September, 1873, during the eventful panic of that year, but Mr. White remained with Mr. Cooke for some time after the failure. On the 1st of January, 1S73, Mr. White entered the service of the Pennsylvania railroad system as assistant secretary of the Northern Central railway company and was elected secretary of the company September 2S, 1S77, which position he has occupied continuously since that time. Mr. White was elected secretary of the Shamokin Valley and Pottsville railroad company, taking effect September 1, 1880.

GORMON VS. HYLA11D Richmond Chief Disagrees with Indianapolis Chief on Picture Films. NOT UNDER BAN LOCALLY Regarding the "blood and thunder" moving pictures on which Chief Hyland of the Indianapolis police department is trying to put under the ban. I. A. Gormon, superintendent of the local department said this morning he did not see any particular harm in them. . "During my many years experience on the Richmond police force." said Mr. Gormon. "I don't believe I know of a boy who has been up here because of moving pictures. It's lots worse to read about robberies, murders, etc. Pictures show things just as they are," concluded the chief. It has also been found that since boxing matches have been held in Richmond sporting goods dealers are selling many more pairs of boxing gloves. Preachers and others claim this is a bad thing but Supt Gormon thinks boys should be taught the use of gloves. At Indianapolis tonight an. amendment will be introduced to the ordinance prohibiting the Jeffries-Johnson fight pictures. Many, councilmen there favor such an amendment Mayor Zimmerman . has said the pictures should be given as wide . a range as possible for there' are many, kinds of people, - Eskimo Candy.

Splendid Productions to be Seen at the Murray this Year

Manager O. G. Murray pf the Murray j theater, became a member of the national theater owners association during the past week, and as a consequence Richmond theater goers the coming season will be supplied a list of attractions superior to anything ever beore presented in this city. The national theater owners' association was recently formed for the purpose of opening doors of all theaters in the one-night stands throughout the country to the attractions of all producers. In the past the deplorable fact existed that no attractions but those affiliated with either the theatrical syndicate or the Shuberts were allowed to play the theaters they were directly associated with. The "open door" policy as adopted by the national theater owners association completely altered that condition of affairs, and now theater owners In almost every one-night stand in tha United States and Canada are allowed to play the attractions of all producers. The advantage of this arrangement is completely demonstrated in the following list of independent attractions that have so far been booked in the open door theaters throughout the state of Indiana. Richmond theater goers will be given opportunity of seeing the majority of .these at the New Murray the coming season. "The Midnight Sons." "The Jolly Bachelors." Blanche Ring in "The Yankee Girl."
