BAR ASSOCIATIONS ACTION
Will Not Interfere With Nomination of
 Mayor Van Wyck.

New York, Oct 16-Richard Croker ssaidto-day that the action of the Bar association of New York in protesting against the nomination of Mayor Rob- ert A. Van Wyck for justice of the SUI preme court would not influence the election, and instanced the case of Jus tice Leventritt, who had similar ax- perience. He said:
 ..The Bar association did the same thing two years ago with the nomna- tion of Judge Leyentritt. There is no more popular justice on the supreme court bench to-day than Justice Leven- tritt. He is so popular and fair-mind- ed that lawyers try to get all their cases before him. The Bar association will not have much influence when it treats honest and fair minded and able judges in that way. The lawyers don't always follow out what the Bar asso- ciation says"

It is also proposed to show how city can be made beautiful, and how to utilize toward that end the public buildings of every city, large and small.
 letter sent to ex-Gov. Francis, president of the St. Louis exposition, outlining this scheme, has elicited a favorable response. The following committee was appointed by Pres ident Warner to draft a definite scheme to present to the authorities at St. Louis: Charles c. Haight. chairman; Charles R. Lamb, Charles R.

Week of October 2S-The dramatic event
of the season ELSIE DE WOLFE IN her
successful modern play,
"THE WAY OF THE WORLD"
No organization of recent years offered in
Baltimore has been stronger in big names
than this combination. Miss De Wolfe has
been practically star for several years, no
production of Charles Frohman of the I'm.
pirc Theatre, New York, being complete, it
might be said, without her.
In one respect Miss Dc Wolfe establishes
new precedent-she has three leading men
instead of one. Vincent Serrano, who is
widely known here because of his splendid
work in "Arizona," Harrison Hunters last
wears leading support of Olga Nethersole,
and Frank Mills, young American actor
recently SO successful in London, who has
been especially brought to America by Miss
De Wolfe for this production, compose the
tito. Hardly second in importance TO any
member of this trinity is Clara Boodgood
whose success ia New York. at the Bijou
Theatre last season was only subordinate To
the brilliant work of the star whom she
supported.
