farce entitled "a Matrimonial Mix
up" Other good numbers on the
program included Joseph Callahan,
character delineator who portrayed
Great Men, Past and Present.;
George Yeoman, an entertaining
German comedian, and Muller and
Chunn. hoop rollers, and Evans and
Evans, clog dancers. The latter
excel their clever turn of last week
and made a big hit at both per-
formances yesterday. The moving
pictures are most excellent this
week; in fact, the whole show is
worthy Of much praise.
1t is claimed that The New Gen.
fury Girls, who come to the Spo-
kane Tuesday night are entitled to
much praise. There are two bur-
lesques, "The Taking of Mr.. Raj
fles" and "In South Dakota" both
exceptionally funny. 1t Is filed to
the brim with amusing incidents, all
of which are essentially modern,
whimsical and witty; has the catch
lest music, the prettiest girls, the
handsomest gowns and the most
brilliant ensembles.

New York Confidence Man Fooled in
Lincoln as We'll as Topeka.

A. Fl. Hayes. confidence man who
purports to be from II Broadway, and
who attempted to prey upon the Gre
dulity of Charles Cfault. of the law
firm of Mulvane & Gault, attempted to
fCist a game Monday upon A. @. Green
lee, an attorney of Lincoln, Neb. but
Greenlee had read the Topeka State
journal.
Hayes came to Topeka on the 9Th of
February and with a story of some di-
mensions about being a practicing at
torney and counsel for a scape-grace
heir of an estate whom he had met in
Topeka. endeavOred to engage Gault
as an attorney here and endorse a
draft of several hundred dollars. Gault
became suspicious and refused to ac-
cept the bait. Hayes left the city and
nothing further was heard from him
until a marked copy of the Lincoln
News was received by Gault. The pa
per had a front page story of the con
ddence game which Hayes tried on
Creenlee without success. Greenlee
when Hayes made his representations to
him remembered a similar story which
he had read in the State Journal in
connection with the attempted hold UP
of Gault. He became suspicious and
told the man as Hayes got further into
his story. that he believed Hayes was
the same person that had tried to buncO
g lawyer in Topeka Hayes became very
indignant at this and stated that the
fact that the name conceded was a
mere chance. He explained that if ne
had been the same person he would
have changed his name at every town
that he commenced operations, and that
any other action if he was a cheat
would have been foolish. Greenlee re-
fused to accept the explanation and
Hayes left the office in a rage To
verify his suspicious Greenlee looked up
the Lincoln exchanges and found the
State Journal story which tailed al
most in every circumstance with the
rrA- HrH "a "a ted in
Lincoln Perusal of the hotel directory
where Hayes had put up. showed that
an accompiice had occupied the same
room with him.
mo doubt the man got in his work
somewhere else between the time he
left here on the 9Th and on the 18th
when he tried it on at Lincoln" said
Mr. Gault this morning.
