Burlington Hawk-Eye: In osSa-

advanced to 10 cents and evidently
people continue to get shaved as OF
yore. Here and there one may try to
grow luxriant crop of wniskers,
but after few weeks he will give up
the attempt in disgust and here and
there one will try and shave himself,
and after he has paid few doctor
bills to have himself sewed up he will
again return his first love. 1t is
not the price of the shave that inter

NEW YORK, Nov. i9.--The all.ab.
scrbing topic Of the theatrical hour ID
the withdrawal Of the Klaw 4 Erlanger
forces from the vaudeville war. The
battle that has been raging for several
months has been fierce, and both X. 4
v. and the United Booking Offices have
lost tens OF thousands OF dollars. Those
who knows the inside OF this bitter fight
claim that Klaw a. EFlanger have
been losing over $4,000 week, and II
would seem to be true, for while that
firm spared no pains or expense TO cor
ner the vaudeville market, still their
houses were not 10 well patronixed as
the Keith a Proctor houses, nor we're the
alk anything like a. good.
II has proved q great triumph for the
Keith Proctor. williams. Hammerstein
contingent. and although they have as
sumed three millions debt TO be paid
Klaw 4 Erianger within 10 years, they
will lose no sleep over that, for with un.
disputed, right Of way in the vaudeville
fisld, that amount Of money will be a
mere bagatelle.
The ending Of this brings grief to
tho heart Of the actor In vaudeville.
Competition 10 ever the life Of trade. and
during this fight actors have drawing
fabulous salaries, which now win fall to
their normal size. 1t means more than
ever that hereafter an act must make
good on It's merit. The New York. Thea.

Despite the vigorous dcnials Of both

a little bird that has been nesting near

that the rift is a very serious one. and
that a separation between these two

A. r. Anderson made yesterday. This
ruling was upon two questions raised by
the defense against the admission of the
books Of the Southern Indiana Railroad
Company. upon which records almost the
entire case against Walsh rests.
Judge Anderson still has the question
of the admission of these records under
advisement, but he declared to-day that

books contained records Of transactions
which indicated the diversion of the
funds of the Chicago National Bank to
the railway company in the, Ordinary

Accordingly efforts Of the prosecution
were directed at the confidence of the at
torneys to-day toward securing the ad-
mission Of evidence of the kind that the
judge declared he desired. For this testi-
mony the prosecution will be obliged to
rely upon the evidence of present and
former Walsh employees
