This combination of prett- girls, ravishing costumes, catchy song hits, infectious music, wholesome comedy and a scenic production par excellence. This season's production is said to surpas, all previous offerings ot the "Father" series. Charli 0 Chaplin the famou movi star, In a recent interview said: "I hava had many happy moments following the experiences "of Mr.

Jlgg that clever and most amusing comedy. "Bringing Up "A NIGHT IN HONOLULU" "A Night in Honolulu" which will be seen at the Academy of Music next Wednesday night, Aug. 31, has been most favorably compared with The Bird of Paradise," the stories have nothing in common. The ecenes of both, however, are laid in the picturesque Hawaiian Islands and the atmosphere of the Paradise of the Pacific is accentuated by the appearance of agroup of Hawaiian singers and players whose eingin.g and ukulele playing are among the most delightful features of the play.

RAW HA AMD FIGHT FANS DELIGHTED WITH FAST AND FURIOUS BOUTS Heisner, of This City, Knocked Out by Rainbow, Lancaster Bested Pittsburgh No Match for Zimmerman, and Tice Bested by Shonder. While the crowd of fight fans and followers wns not as large as usunl at the bouts held at Third and Orson streets last evening, they made up In enthusiasm what was lacking in numbers and every fighter was wlldtv cheered, exhorted, pleaded with, advised and warned by hia frieuds and followers during tho progress of his bout. The bouts on the whole wore not quite up to the standard of tht fights staged at tha last show but those of last night were fast furious enough to satisfy even the most critical and Soudcrs is to hi commended for his efforts ir. securing a (rood caVd of attractions for locals fans. With one exception every fighter was on hand for his fight and in this ono Instance, Shank, of Avon, was unable to appear on account of sickness and hlj couslni another Rhaak substituted for him.

All the fights contained everything that goo.i to make up a boxhii; bout and wild swiiiBS, misses, moiling 1 sidestepping, Jabs nnd clinching were seon during the fights. Carpcntler ami Denipsoy. evonin-g's entertainment was started by an exhibition bout between YounB Carpentier and Young Jack Dempsay, two youngsters from Lancaster and these two -boys displayed a knowledge of the various phases of the game, which waa surprising and which would have done credit to a number of our older fighters. Fearlessly these boys swatted eack- other and put up a snappy exhibition for four fastTOunds. At the end of the time, Young Jack Dempsey issued a challenge to meet anyone at 150 pounds.

The boys were compensated for their exhibition by a silver donation from the fans. Lancaster and Lebanon. The wind-up was the bout upon which the interest of the fans was centered because of the fact that Rainbow, a Lancaster veteran, and Heisner, a Lebanon scrapper, had never appeared in a local ring before and both fighters had achieved enviable records. Heisner did prove to be a surprise to the fans as he displayed cool Judgment in the ring and displayed a swift loft hand Jab and terrific right hand wallop, which would mean disaster t'o an opponent unfortunate enough to meet it. Bobby Rainbow, a ring-scarred veteran, bearing the marks, of many bat, ties, was the most scientific of the two and showed a superior knowledge at infighting and in evory clinch, Heisner was punished with telling effect by the veteran LannaE- ter punch dispenser.

Rainbow's tactics were seemingly to draw out the local battler but Heisner was no novice at the game himself and was contented to size up hia man and occasionally rush for an opening. Rainbow closed in continually and in the clinches, pounded Helsner's ribs terrifically. For three rounds not much action was seen but both scrappers were content to play safe game, not leaving any openings and neither gaining any noticeable advantage. In the fourth, Rainbow was galvanized into action suddenly and shortly after the start of round, in what appeared to be a mjld mix-up, Heisner dropped to the floor from a short jolting right to the stomach. Flat on his back, ner took the referee's count of nive, jumped to his feet, amid cheers and resumed the fight.

Near the end of the round, Heisner was again sent to the boards by Rainbow's Jolting short arm blows, this time, taking eight and appeared slightly dazed. He finished round in good style, Hfisnor Knocked "Out. The fifth round was barely under way an4 with Rainbow making an attempt to force the fighting, Heisner mixed it up with several lefts but suddenly crumpled and dropped to the floor after several stomach blows off Rainbow's gloves. This time the local entry was down for the count and even the count of ten failed to get him to his feet. The K.

O. came early In round from stomach blows which told on Heisner, who appeared to be slightly out of condition, while Rainbow had the appearance of a tough customer, trained to minute and seemed to fed able to absorb punishment. Heisner, despite being kayoed, made a faTorable impression on. the fans by his cat-like Jabs and speed. 'BURNS TEAM PROVED EASY FOR GIANTS Manager Spang Has Booked Some of the Most Noted Attractions BRINGING UP FATHER Johnny Feather was given a battle galore by Young the Pittsburgh hauler, who was a glutton for punishment, and, although staggered tinm ifter time in the last two rpundl "fey Feather's stiff blows to the rjbj 494 smashes to the Jaw, was stepped from the ring after absorbing and hnndlnrr out punishment for six furious rounds and In all probability, he will hp pern in the local ring agnin.

Ke.it her successfully de. fended the title he has acquired of city champion of the lightweights but wns absolutely unable to put Hahn away or oven take hin; off hin 1 Each round was practically Mm same. Feather landed hnrd stiff rights to the ribs every round on his lends and occasionally scut over a hard smanh to Uie Jaw and for two rou ids was hit but once. In thr- third, how. over, Hahn showed up wo)l nnd he landed several overhand rights to Feather's which served to make the local champion more cautious, although he still land'Vl his hard blows to the rilis.

Tho fourth saw Fcathnr piling up a load ou points but still unable to pot his man into shape for a K. O. Halm's loft pye was badly punished in this round and was badly swollen from Feather's solid blows. Both fighters mixed It up in the fifth Hahn, who was supposed to in, groggy shape according to the funs camo out in strons fashion, sending several overhand rights crashing to Feather's jaw. In this round both fighters wont through the ropes on Feather's rush but neither was noticeably hurt by the fall.

In sixth and final round, the local ifavorlte tried hard for a K. O. but was very greatly weakened by the fast BO and tailed to even take Hahn oft his feet. The visitor absorbed blow after blow, and although many ot thara staggered him and he appeared ready for sleep, he gamely came back with several solid wallops to Feather's jaw. The fight was a "hummer" throughout' and Hahn pleased H'e fans with his showing and ability to take a beating and come back for more.

Shuafc and Ziminennnn. Young Shaak, of Avon, substituting for his cousin, O. Shaak, against Kid Zimmerman, a veteran fighter, proved no match for the Hershey scrapper and most of the three rounds in which they fought, Shaak ran around the Hue continually and Zimmerman, unable to get his man in position for a K. O. wallop, landed many hard blows and had Shaak in distress throughout.

Occasionally Shaak came in for an exchange of blows but always fared worse in the encounter. Plainly he was in no condition for the fight and after being punished severely for three rounds quit and Zimmerman was awarded the. fight on a technical knockout. was givon credit for going on rather than have the fans disappointed and expressed hia willingness to fight Zimmerman at later date. Slionder and Tice, The opener, featuring Steve Shonder and Kid Tice, two local fighters, was a tamer affair than their last meeting, in which Shonder kayoed Tice with a solid right to the Jaw and neither fighter mixed it up aa they did in their first meeting.

Tice was supposed to be after a Knockout or at least out to avenge his defeat but failed to euthuau the fans by his showing, as he sparred continually) awaiting Sbonder's leads. The first four rounds were tame affairs although several hard wallops were landed by bath fightr ers, and a number of, wild swings missed their mark by inches. Shonder was unable to use his right hand effectively as it was severely bruised and each time it was used, it pained the fighter, who appeared to be in agony, but samely refused to have the fight stopped. The fifth round was the first in which Tice really showed any inclination to get the scrap and landed a number of stiff lefts to the Jaw, which hurt Shouder but had no serious effect on his Fishting at a great disadvantage on account of his bruised hand. Blonder stuck out stiff lefts in the sixth, which met Tice in the jaw and stopped h's rushes.

Shonder tpok. a number of blows during the last two rounds on account of his 4amagcd walloping hand but at no wag he iu danger of Tice's rushes. Tbe opinion was that Shonder had no trouble in winning, as Tice was shaded in nearly every round.
