FIGHT AT CRAWFORD.
Property Man Tries to Whip the
Whole Company.

A policeman was called behind the
scenes at the Crawford theater last
night. The show, on the program, was
"A Texas Romance" On the many
quarter-sheets of advertising it was
"A Texas Ranger" There was no po-
liceman in the cast, SO they called in
Officer Jenkins.
When the policeman reached the stage,
in answer to a hurry call, he found the
property man stripped for action,
spars slowed and matches closely bat
tened. Around him was the cast, con-
sisting of four women and half a dozen
men. The property man was advertis-
ing for bids on a rough house, and was
finding no takers. He announced that
he could whip the entire cast and wreck
the scenery at one swfpe, and was feel
ing just like doing it. A heavy essence
of liquor hung over the entire assembly,
diffused by the war-like young man.
The policemen asked the property man
to come along, and the property man
said he would, but that he had a few
small duties to attend to before COM
ing along Among the duties was the
wrecking of the show the determination
of the cast, and a small part in the last
act, for which a small per cent of the
small audience was still waiting. The
officer finally persuaded the irate young
man to come away. By the time they
reached the street the young man had
sworn eternal friendship for the police
man and agreed to go to bed and forget

UNlTARIANS BARRED.
Their Delegates VIII Not Be Admitted
to Church Federation Meeting.

New York Oct. 12.-The officials Of the
church federation that is planning to hold
meetings in this city next month, it was
learned today, have decided to exclude all
members of the Unitarian denomination.
About 700 official delegates and alterna tes
are coming here, representing about IS mill
lions of church members. Among the duly
elected delegates we're the Rev. Dr. Ed
ward Everett Hale, chaplain of the United
States senate; John d. Long. ex-secretary
of the navy, and the Rev. DR.. Samuel A.
Elliott, president of the American Unfair
ian association. The committee in charge
had declined to admit them as delegat ties.
There is national federation Of
churches. aiming TO bring Christian bodies
into active support of measures on which
all agree. This federation has been at
work for more than two years on the
meeting and has succeeded in getting the
official bodies of more than 20 denomina-
lions to name delegates. 1t was not the
purpose to form an organic union The Uni
farians supposed they were invited and
named delegates. The action barring them
out. it is said. brings Unitarians and Trim
itarians into clash on a larger scale than
any before.

BROKE INTO HER ROOMS.
Firemen Explore suite occupied by
Woman Reciuse.

Chicago, Oct 12.-Fearful that the con-
tents Of the rooms We're a menace by fire,
to the hotel and ali its occupants, mem
pers Of the fire department yesterday
broke into the suite occupied for many
years by Mrs. Hattie Cotton in the Plaza
hotel .-,,--s
For years no other person had entered
the rooms A4rs. Cotton lived the life of
sisreeluse and would permit no one else to
cross her threshold. Glimpses which en-
ployes Of the hotel gained between quick
opening and closing of doors, however led
to the call for aid from the city.
When the door was opened members OF
the invading party stared with amaze
ment. Four Of the i've rooms in the suite
were packed from doeF to ceiling and from
wall to wall with old newspapers, paper
boxes and rubbish of various kinds. In
the fifth room space had been left for a
small cot, which was the only comfort the
elderly woman had allowed herself.
The clerk noticed that Mrs. Cotton car
ried many newspapers and boxes to her
apartments and never threw any away.
What are you going to do with all those
papers2"
Il am going to make clippings from
them" was the explanation Mrs. Cotton
made. She usually paid her rent with
regularity, was said to be a good business
woman and not talkative. Mrs. Cotton
disappeared from the hotel three days ago.
