DIGBY BELL.

Digby Bell, the comedian, who has reached the pinnacle of his successful stage career in his triumph in comedy. "The Education of Mir Pipp," was born in Milwaukee, the son of wealthy father, and the now popular comedian was given a university education and travelled extensively abroad. Coming back to New York, where his father had moved, he went at once into busi- ness and was in the offices of the White Star line for several years. He aspired to the army, had West Point appointment within his grasp, then re- fused it. He went abroad and Sby some strange combination of circum- stances drifted to the stage. His premier was ill opera on the Island of Malta. As Mir Pipp. the down. trodden, hen-pecked husband in the August ThOmas-Charles Dana Gibson comedy, "The Education of Mir Pipp," to-morrOw's attraction at Poli's, he has achieved his most brilliant success. Mir Gibson, the artist, creator of the fam ous types of American girlhOod and of the familiar Pipp pictures, declares he is the only real live flesh and blood Mir Pipp. His droll delivery of the bright Thomas dialogue makes the play the greatest comedy hit of the season. In the company are Helen Tracy, pleas ing Mrs Pipp: Janet Beechcr and Adele Luehrman, the Gibson girls: w. s. St Clair, Fred Courtenay, Frederick Key holds, Frank Powell. William Evans, Sam Colt, c. Jay Williams, Harry l.. Lang and Bessie Baldwin. Prices are 25. 30, 70, S1 and $1.5O. Telephone 116-2.

AFTER EMPIRE LIFE
New York Insurance Offices
 Stormed by Women.
WANTED THEIRPRENIUM NOyEYBACK
Defunct Concern, In Hands, of Re- cefver, Said to Have Assets of 93,OOO and Obligations of
 Several Millions.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-Two hundred women, many of them from out of the city and one of them from Illinois, stormed the offices of the Empire Life Insurance company here and later the office of District Attorney Jerome and demanded that something be done in regard to the policies which they have been carrying for years.
 Recently circular was sent out say ing the policy holders of the Empire Life would be considered acceptable risks in the Temperance Benevolent association, which has offices in the same building as the Empire. This re- port was premature.
 On Jan. 12 Attorney General Mayer forced the Empire Life into the hands of receiver. It was found that there was cash on hand something in excess of 5000, and there were outstanding obligations amounting to several mil lions of dollars in policies.
 The gathering, finding there was no one in the Empire Life offices, made descent upon the receiver, George Brown of Nassau street. MT. Brown was helpless and told them 50. After seeing few of them he gave orders to the elevator men that no more were to be brought to his office.
 Most of the women then marched to the office of District Attorney Jerome. He was not in, and they were met by Assistant District Attorney Lockwood. One woman said she had paid in $655 in premiums upon a policy of $1,0OO.
 Mrs. Rose A. Donnelly, who did most of the talking said she came from Simsbury, Conn.,, and had paid in $565 on a policy of $1000.
 They were advised to see the United States authorities.

VAUDEVILLE.

One of the essentials of successful stage production is the appeal to the eye, because that which affects the visual sense makes more instan- taneous impression than that which reaches the auditory. One reason why the bicycle act of the Jackson family has made such a hit at the Jacques this week lies in the immediate sense of pleasure the groupings of the per formers create in the audience. It is q beautiful act to watch and one of the few turns of its type which has the power of entertaining those to whom displays of physical dexterity are in sufferably lonesome. Bailey and Aus tin. however. make no particular ap- peal to any of the faculties. They come on the stage. unravel their bunch of nonsense and the auditorium does the rest Such a meisnge of helier- skelter. slam-bang. assault and battery comedy methods was never mixed up and It hits the disabilities like a trip hammer every minute.
