WRANGLE OVER
TAKING THE0ATH
First Session of ConSti- :
tutional Convention.

Richmond, Va, June 1.-THE
Virginia constitutional convention
met at noon today with ninety
eight members present, and after
prayer 10y Rev. DR.. Richard Nc
Ilwaine, was called to order by
Delegate Petit of Fluvana.
Hon. John Goode, of Bedford
was elected president and - r's
speech of acceptance talked on the
suffrage question, commencing the
Mississippi plan. Mr.. Goode was
nominated 10y w. n. Anderson,
second by Senator Daniel.
The oath provides that each
subscriber to it shall support the
constitution the United States
and those opposed to it were of
opinion that should the convention
take it nothing could be done with
the suffrage question. Others held
that il it were not sworn to the
supreme court might hold what was
accomplished by the convention
null and void.
Some of tho mem bers Of the con-
vention stated that they would be
expelled from the body before they
would take the oath.
The fight against taking the oath
was led by Seator Daniel Hoo.
Garter Glass and other distinguish
cd members. The motion was
laid on the table by a vote of 80 to
81.
ELECTION OF PRESIDENT.
Soon after the vote was announ-
ced, Mr.. Walton Moore, of Fairfax
placed before the convention the
name OF Hon. John Goode, of
Bedford, as the permanent
president officer and Senator
Daniel seconded tho nomination
in an eloquent address in which
Mr.. Goodies work for his State was
reviewed. Mr.. Goode was elected
without opposition.
The most popular suffrage
article seems thus far to be poll
tax payment of the tax on say
$500 of property and an educat
Ional qualification; old soldiers and
their descendants to be exempt
from all OF these conditions.

ALL ON ACCOUNT OE ELIZA.

Gan on Account of Eliza" the new
farcal comedy which Leo Ditrichstein
wrote for Louis Mann and Clara Lipman
seems to be, Judging from critical COM
ment elsewhere, just the sort OF vehicle
which those two undeniably clever play
ers have been seeking for long time, in
stead of the spice, flaw " and suggestive
ness OF "Gay Paree," which ran riot in
"The Girl from Paris" and "The Cir! in
the Barracks"
1t has the odor of the pine woods Of
Western New York State, and while its
fun is cleanly and wholesome always,
Mr.. Mann finds opportunities to be more
excruciatingly funny than he has ever
been heretofore in any Of the French
connections which won for him wide
spread popularity. The new piece not
only places Mr.. Mann in fresh light,
but it also brings Miss Lipman for ward
to a more congenial and consequently
more delightful atmosphere than has
ever vet been afforded her.
She has sympathetic role, and she is
said to play it in a roguish, spontaneous.
gir!ish fashion, which has caused the
critics to trot out the much abused term
ingenue, and to declare that not for
long time has its meaning been made so
clear as Miss Lipman makes it in "All
on Account of Eliza" The attraction
comes to the Opera House next Monday
night.

The Burgomaster.(

At the Broad Street Theatre, the
Burgomaster continues to assert its
wonderful drawing powers and this
beautiful playhouse is crowded at
every performance. Philadelphia
theatregoers have special liking for
musical comedy but they have never
shown their preference for this style
of entertainment more thoroughly
or more enthusiastically than for
"The Bnrgomaster.'
"The Burgomaster" can be accep-
tably described as a "rattling good
show. 1t is filled with music that
wins the ear at a first hearing and it
has throughout its comedy the spices
of jolly, bubbling humor that compels
laughter at every line. Moreover
"Thc Burgomaster' is played and
sung to perfection with such come
dians as Richard i. Carroll, Thomas
F. Ricketts,, Knox Wilson, William
Riley Hatch, and it can be readily
imagined that there is not dull
moment when they are on the stage,
which is pretty nearly all the time.
The Burgomaster is well trained
for its chorus and pretticr and
more shapely bevy of graceful young
ladies have not been seen here than
in "The Burgomaster's' Beauty
Chorus and 1.-The Football Girls"
