Too Much courtesy"

New York Telegraph.
Senator Hanna's ship subsidy bill is in
lot more danger from its supposed friends
than from its enemies, according TO the
latest Washington advices. Under tina
guise of jealous hospitality some Of its sp-
parently warmest supporters are slipping
knockout drops into it's coffee, as well as
surreptitiously loading IL with handicaps
and filling its path with a mixed collection
of banana peels and fine wire trip-me-ups
And the joke of IL is Senator Hanna un-
derstands and sees what Is going on. but
lacks the power to break up the game.
Excess OF senatorial courtesy is operating
against him now; some day IL will work
for him. the wise though new statesman
from the Western reserve argues. In the
club to which Senator Hanna now belongs
the member who can take his medicine to-
day and smile as though he enjoyed IL may
have an inning tomorrow.

ga Run ON the Bank mt Park.

Charles Pussy, the long comedian. and
his abbreviated partner, Bert st. John,
pleased big audience at the Park Theater
yesterday afternoon by their peculiar meth
DDS of fun-making in Ward and Vokes's
old success, "a Run on the Bank" The
piece is lively farce that has been pur-
posely bereft of plot to make room for the
introduction of specialties in response TO
the popular demand at present. Mr. Pussy,
as Lord Percy Soakup, Travelled arm In arm
with Mr.. St. John, as Baron Harold De-
cantor, throughout the three acts, and the
pair contrived in many ways to make them
selves very greeable. They were ably as
sisted by Jimmie Fanson, as Bow Legs;
John Vincent, as Abraham Rosinosky; Lo-
rene Jansen, as Hasty Writer: Louise
Gould, as Nera Man, and a host Of others.
A few of the speciality hits of the perform
ance were: John Vincent's tramp speciality;
the act of the Grierson Sisters, combina-
ton OF singing and dancing: wise Rubes
from Okan Patch by Messrs Stanley.
Vincent, Fansen. Pussy, and st. John; MY
Girl from Dixey," Miss Jansen; acrobatic
turn by Jimmie Fansen and Lorene Jansen;
Shes Queen Miss Jansen and the COM
pany; AN Embarrassing Position" Miss
Tompkins and Messrs. Pussy and st. John;
Now We Come" Pussy and st. John; the
De Arville Sisters in a combination OF
songs, dances, and contortion work. As
an extra attraction little Elsie Janis Bier
bower, child impersonator, was intro
duced Little Miss Bierbower is fairly en-
titled to the distinction of being termed
the greatest child actress in the country.
If there is one that surpasses her she has
not appeared in Indianapolis yet With con-
summate ceverness the little girl initiates
almost to the life Edna May as the Saliva
ton Army lassie, Pauline Hall in her doll
song, a French music hall singer and a
Hebrew entertainer, in addition TO giving
In excellent style the song written especial
ly for her by Al Fitz, entitled, Don't You
Want Little Doggie?'
Taking 1t altogether, "a Run on the
Bank" is one of the best light entertain
n ents the Park has had in long time
and should play to big houses at both per-
formances to-day.

The latest will to be set aside by the
courts in New York is that OF n testator
who left all his residuary estate to thu
cemetery wherein he was TO DC buried. The
court holds that this bequest is invalid for
the reason that the testator already bad a
burial plot and a handsome monument,
erected during his lifetime at great ex-
Tense and the court Is unable TO find any
valid reason for one dead man having two
costly monuments In one cemetery. This
looks rather more logical than sentimental.
