Empire yesterday afternoon, with Edgar
Atchison Ely and Georgia Gardiner as the
principal characters in the burlesque and
with the assistance Of company far and
away beyond the average variety-house
standard. The play, il play it can be called,
is a burlesque on the broadcast lines of
1.-The Conquerors,,' the famous assault scene
being turned into an attempt to make the
heroine eat a pie of her own cooking. The
situations are intense, especially where the
prosecuted and lovely young woman has to
slam two doors shut before she can exclaim
locked. And there is no escaped The
young woman faints, the prosecutor relents,
the drunken innkeeper, "Bumface," eats the
fatal pie and falls dead, only to rise again
and accuse the young captain of murder.
There are enough epigramS and puns in the
piece to stock half a dozen burlesque

THE COUNTY CLERK RETURNS
Mr.. Fesier's Enjoyable Service as n
Naval Cadet.

County Clerk Fesler arrived home yester-
day from New York, where he has been en-
gagged with the crew of the cruiser Buffalo
in getting the ship ready for sea service
Mr.. Fesler has been acting in the capacity
of a navel cadet. and expects to retain the
title for some time to come. The Buffalo
will leave in few days for Manila, and Mr.
Fesler wants to get back to New York in
time to join her for the cruise. The county
clerk looks sunburnt and healthy from his
two months experience. He says he is de-
lighted with his berth and has enjoyed the
experience immensely. He is thrown in the
society of a fine set of officers and crew
of more than ordinary intelligence. For sew
eral weeks after he reached New York he
was stationed on the recruiting ship Yer
mont, and there became familiar with the
naval drills. When he first went into the
service the hard work fatigued him greatly,
but he has now grown accustomed to the
exercise and finds it most invigorating and
heaithful. He expects to enjoy the trip TO
Manila and is ready for whatever service
may be in store for the Buffalo.

something entirely new. They made a great
hit In this same sketch in the Eastern cities
last spring. 1t is a 1rcssy, breezy sort OF
an act wherein the husband and wife are
each trying to hide the same individual from
one another. The third character in the
sketch is nonspeaking. but most I'M
porfant one. His name is Mike O'Brien and
he is in reality pugiIist. who. has been
brought home by the young club man for
the purpose of giving lesson in boxing.
Inc wife mad been expecting call from q
man whom she had never seen but whom
she wished to reward for saving her life
while bicycle riding. Being OF a romantic
turn Of mind she had enshrined this I'M
known person as a hero and, coming sud,
denly upon the pugilist while her husband
had gone to get the boxing gloves, she sup
poses him to be the hero and pours out her
thanks. adding $500 to them as a more SUBJ
stantial token Of her gratitude. Becoming
panicky on hearing her husband returning
and not knowing just how he would take to
her hero. she bundles the pugilist into side
room. Now the husband is surprised and
chagrined to find his wife had not gone to
the theater as he supposed and. desiring to
conceal from her his ambition in the pugllis-
tic line. he supposes O'Brien, knowing this,
has hidden himself purposely. And so 1t
goes through the sketch. The Formidable
looking pugiist is hustled hither and thither
until the. culmination when his discovery
leads to the wifes confession that he is her
hero, Archibald Johnson. The husband,
convulsed with laughter, is very willing to
let 1t go at that and after Mike has been
turned loose a note is received from the real
johnson stating his inability to call that
evening. Then the wife comes TO the con-
clusion that the strange man was burglar
and laments the fact that she gave him
$500. whereat the husband groanS at the
thought that he never received even one les
son for the money, though he does not en-
tighten his wife as to the mans identity.
Mr.. Hallen and his beautiful wife make
much Of this miniature comedy, which never
fails TO keep the audience in almost con-
tinuous laughter The pugilst does not
speak word but his makeup and looks are

Governor Asks that 1t He Not Mus
tered Out Just Yet

Governor Mount yesterday sent a message
to the War Department asking for a sus-
pension of the order mastering out McIn-
tyres signal service company until some
points could be looked into in regard to the
status of the organization and the desires
of the men. AS matters stand the officers
want to remain ip the service and the men
are anxious to be mustered out
According TO general practice of the de-
partment, signal service companies that
have been out of the country or have been
longest in service are mustered out first
The Indiana company came into the service
late and has not been out OF the country;
hence some of the officers claim they feel
that the order OF the War Department to
muster them out is a reflection upon the or
ganization. In this they are entirely mis-

the companies shall be mustered out.
Nevertheless. Governor Mount feels that in
justice to the Indiana command the matter
ought to be looked into Lieutenant Wright,
who is in Washington, has been trying for
several days to persuade the War Office to
permit everybody in the company to retire
who wants to and let the company be re-
