THE Toast of the Town" at the JEFF
ferson theatre this afternoon and to-

received in the role which Miss Allen

the heartiest that has been heard at this
play house. The strong points of the
piece are the comedy and the splendid
singing of the chorus and principals In
ensembles. The singing is especially COM
mendable. While there are no individually
strong voices. the chorus is well trained
and contains a number of good voices
The performance from start to finish is
full of comedy and the comedians are
clever. The crowds yesterday certainly
enjoyed the comedy and they applauded
the comedians frequently. Harry NJ
Stewart as key Locke. a Jew character
is the cleverest of the comedians and he
gets a great number of laughs. James
Mack, as an Irishman, is his chief assist
ant in the fun making
A feature of the bill is the string of
slang that w. s. Campbell uses in his
part of l. Sharkem, a fraudulent king
of Coney Island. He is in the bunco game
all the time and originates bunco schemes
as fast as he needs them to replenish his
pockets. The clang is original and eff
fective.
The pictures of the Nelson-Gans fight
proved a good drawing card. Ten of the
best rounds of the fight have been chosen
and they are all fast and furious. The
pictures are excellent and show plainly
every detail of the fighting in those
rounds.
Miss Sydell is the leading woman Of
the company. She wears some stunning
costumes and has a large collection of
diamonds that are very brilliant. She has
a good company and one that Is put to-
gether to please the public. The olo con-
tains some excellent vaudeville acts. The
Western sisters have a singing. dancing
and boxing act that went we'll. and Camp
bell and Mack have an original speciality.
The best feature of the olio and a vaude-
vile act that would be a feature in any
theatre, Is the muscular exhibition of
Professor ReIyea, who is a fine specimen
of physical development. lie can give
cards and spades to the average physical
culture exponent and win easily. He is
billed as THE Perfect Man." and his
muscles seem to have reached perfection

PUBLIC PRINTER HAS
BRAND new SCHEME
HIS NEW SYSTEM OF EFFICIENCY
is EXPECTED TO MEET Wo-
LENT OPPOSITION FROM THE
LABOR UNIONS.

Washington, September 2I-Publie
Printer stillings today inaugurated his
system of efficiency as applied to gov
ernment work. BY 1t he hopes to be able
at any time to give an exact statement
as to the cost of any government job.
Heretofore. he says, estimates have
been based on theoretical lines, but he
now proposes to make It a matter of ex-
act knowledge. He declares that the new
system will not impose any extra work
on the printers. book binders or others
employed in the office. but on the con-
trary will secure to them proper credit
for the work they individually do. The
change being a more or less radical de-
parture from the old system Mr.. Still
ings said that he fully expected to meet
with much criticism. although he said
his action was distinct advance In the
conduct of the office.
It Is believed that this new order will
call forth bitter opposition from labor
unions represented in the great govern
ment printing establishment It Is a fact
that Assistant Secretary Newberry's at
tempt TO break into the union rules pre-
scribing cerain stints of work at the
Washington navy yard recently failed,
owing to the opposition of the unions who,
through committees. vigorously protest
ed against the competitive system which
they asserted was sought to be imposed
upon workmen. The efficiency record in
the case of the government printing Of
fee will, they fear, be made the basis for
promotion and reward, and thereby in
duce individual competition directly con-
trary to the principles of the unions.

embezzlement.
Among those occupying positions of
trust and confidence. wherein the
handling of money is involved, intern
perance and gambling is a fruitful
source of embezzement.
The grand jury at the April, 1906,
term of this court, in it's final report,
called attention to what 1t designated
as "a prevalent fault INDUCED
in by the government employees,
which is to secure unto them
selves personal advances from money
subject to their control and to sub
stitute i'm lieu thereof personal /. O.
US" This is clear violation Of Sec
tion 1865 of the Revised Laws. The
courts in other jurisdictions, under
statutes similar to ours, have held that
the fraudulent conversion of money is
none the less embezzlement because at
the time there was an intention to re-
store the same, and this Is true, even
though the accused had sufficient prop
erty to make restoration.
