MUSIC AND DRAMA
VAUDEVILLE MEN GOING
INTO THE LEGITIMATE
Special to The Herald.

CpeCldl u ll5 I1Sl
BUFFALO, May 9-'We've got to
do it for our own protection" said B.
f. Keith, head of the Keith-Proctor
chain of vaudeville houses throughout
the country, when he was asked today
If there was any foundation for the
rumor that his combination of vaude-
vile managers proposed to invade the
Legitimate" theatrical field with the
aters and shows in order to protect
themselves from the invasion by Klaw
& Erlanger.
Asked what he would do for houses
and attractions, Mr.. Keith explained:
I'VE can get both. Several of our
managers like Mr.. Williams, Mr.. Peck
and Mr.. Kohl are experienced in the
legitimate field, and now have attrac-
tions playing the legitimate houses,
some of them even playing for the
trust. More of our managers are like
wise experienced, and as there are
several houses open to us for the legit-
innate drama, musical comedy, musical
operas and the like, I cannot see but
what we can make just as strong a
showing, if not stronger one, in the
legitimate field right from the start
than the other managers can make in
the vaudeville field"

Aboard Catalina Ship
Arabs Organize
Canada, Mexico, Honolulu and the
United States Bind Shriner
FraternaI Ties More
Closely

Arab patrols yesterday aboard the
steamer Cabrillo on the high seas be-
tween San Pedro and Catalina island
organized an international association
for the patrols of the Shriners.
Perry Weidner of Los Angeles was
named chairman of the committee of
organization and he will probably be
elected head of the new organization
for it's first year. -
This association of patrols, inter-
national in scope, and formed solely to
perpetuate the interests of the Arabic
drill corps, is intended as an uplift to
the Shriner cause the world over. Its
meetings will be held annually, prob
ably with the annual conclaves of the
social branch of Masonry.
So magnificent has been the showing
of the patrols in Los Angeles that it
has been determined to make the 1907
meeting the standard for all future
ones.
Southern California has set the pace
and the good work must go on.
Such was the essence of the talks
aboard the steamer and on this basis
the committee on constitution and by
laws will work out the scheme of
growth of the new born auxiliary of
good fellows.
The three cities represented on the
committee-the names of members kept
a secret-are Los Angeles, Denver and
San Francisco.
Before the week is ended an informal
report will be made and headquarters
will be established so that the perfec-
ton of membership can be kept in
touch with the official body.
TWenty-one patrols were represented
at the meeting aboard the Cabrillo and
every patrol in the United States, Mexi-
co, Canada and Honolulu will be en-
braced in the new organization

City Prettiy Decorated
The town was prettily bedecked with
flags and flowers for the occasion.
Pine avenue, the pier and the pike were
gay with flags and Shrine banners
Numerous business houses were almost
covered with mustard bloom. A huge
fez of red geraniums, with scimital
and crescent of white carnations and
with tassel of papyrus bloom formed
striking bit of decorating on the front
of Col. loves office at 16 Pine avenue.
Red carnations were given all the Wis
itors.
Among the guests at the beach were
both Frank c. Roundy, imperial poten-
tate-elect, and E. I. Alderman of Cedar
Rapids, Iowa, the new deputy imperial
potentate,
The car service from town was run
on two-minute schedule, every train
containing two cars. The service both
in and out was good.
Shriner Catches Crooks
Detective A. P. Winters, a Redlands
-
of stealing 5000 from another visiting
Shriner on the outer wharf about noon
and placed them under arrest. While
leading them toward the city hall, and
when near the Salt Lake depot, one
of them broke away and ran east down
Seaside boulevard. Mounted Officer
Thomas Borden saw the escape from
the corner of Pine and Ocean avenue
and joined in the pursuit. Hurrying
his horse down Locust way he caught
the pickpockets in the rear of the Long
Beach skating rink.
The chase was Joined in by number
of persons who shouted "Stop, thief"
as they ran. The crook offered no re-
sistance when Borden rode up beside
him and ordered him to give himself
up.
The prisoners gave their names as
Herman Fink of Chicago and James
Wilson of Denver. Winters, the de-
tective, said that he recognized the
latter as we'll known dip whose name
is Caldwell. The two men are in the
city Jail. Fink had $16O on his person
when searched. Wilson had but $26.
The pocketbook was taken to the DO
lice station later by Shriner who saw
Wilson throw it aside in the grass as
he ran down Seaside boulevard. It's
COllSIlIS were lIlldCJ ana w. j. BlOSe
of Pittsburg, the man who was
touched" rejoiced exceedingly that he
still had his Fiesta pin money.
Feels Hand in Pocket
Blose was standing near the sun
parlor, awaiting the call to lunch, when
he felt hand draw his money from
his trousers pocket.
II have been robbed" he yelled. AS
he turned around he saw Winters catch
two big fellows by their shoulders.
Winters had observed the work of the
dips and recognized in one of them the
fellow Caldwell, whom he said he knew
years ago when a member of the New
York police department.
G. c. Barrodaile of Albuquerque, N.
M, who has been guest at the Del
mar for a year, was relieved of a
diamond stud worth 5000 by dip on
the pier in the afternoon.
w. G. Wells, young real estate
dealer, was robbed of a watch and
about $50 in similar manner in a
crush on Pine avenue.

Amounts 70 Millions.

The closing days session of the Ma
tional Convention Of Cotton Manufac-
turers in Washington was marked by
the presence and the delivery of ad-
dresses by two members OF President
Roosevelts cabinet. They were Secre-
tary Straus, of the department of COM
MERGE and labor, and Postmaster Gen
eral Meyer. Secretary Straus said:
The so-called yellow races are
steadily increasing customers of your
goods, and as they advance and pros
per, provided we keep their good will,
they will buy more and more of your
product aih of other American manu-
features. China took s20,000,000 less
from you last year than the year be-
fore. How much Of this was due to
a silent non-importation agreement,
which was used so effectively by us
preceding the revolutionary war, and
which is known by the modern name
of boycott leave you 10 figure out.
Probably Minister WI, when he
comes here, will help you figure, and
| think if you get him to tell you all
that he knows the information cannot
fail TO be valuable both to yours and
other industries"

Stop the Waste,

After an extensive investigation of
the country's natural resources, con-
Quoted in the west, at the instance of
the government, Prof j. A. Holmes,
chief of the technologic bureau of the
geological survey, who has just re-
turned, has made an official state
ment, warning the American people
that the present prodigious waste of
these resources must stop at once II
the country is to continue to prosper.
Prof. Holmes says that the waste of
coal is appalling. Every possible means
should be adopted, he says, for reduc-
ing the waste to an absolute mini
mum; in order that our fuel resources
may suffice for the future as we'll as
for the present needs of the nation.
AT the present rate of increase in
consumption" says Mr.. Holmes, 1.-The
better part of the fuel supply Of the
country will be gone by the end of the
present century, unless the proper
steps are taken"
Prof. Holmes says that the techno-
logic branch of the geological survey
indicates the possibility of increasing
the fuel efficiencies by two or three
fold and suggests still greater posi-
bilities.
THE future is full of promise" he
says, but the solution of these prob
lens calls for further extended investi-

HIS MEMORY WAS GOOD.
Commodore Vanderbilt Had Not For
gotten Old Days.

The coming Of age Of Miss Gladys
Vanderbilt and the payment to her or
some twelve millions of dollars inner
itance has brought out new crop of
anecdotes about the Vanderbilt for
tune. One of the latest illustrates
the democratic spirit of the old COM
modore.
Sitting on the porch Of a fash
ionable hotel at fashionable resort
on one occasion, it is related, the
commodore saw lady approaching
with whom he was acquainted. His
wife and daughter, who recognized
her, could scarcely contain their an
ger when he arose and politely ad-
dressed her.
Don't you krow," said the daugh-
ter after she had gone, that hor-
rid woman used to sell poultry to
us?"
"Yes," responded the old million
aire, and / remember when your
mother sold root beer and / peddled
oysters in New Jersey"

TRANSFORMATIONS.
Curious Results When Coffee Drinking
10 Abandoned.

II is almost as hard for an old coffee
topper to quit the use of coffee as il is
for a whisky or tobacco fend to break
of, except that the coffee user can
quit coffee and take up Postum with
out any feeling Of loss of the morn
ing beverage, for when Postum is well
boiled and served with cream, IL is
really better in point of flavor than
most Of the coffee served nowadays,
and to the taste of the connoisseur it
is like the flavor of fine, mild Java.
A great transformation takes place
in the body within ten days or two
weeks after coffee is left off and
Postum used, for the reason that the
poison to the nerves-caffeine-
been discontinued. and in its place is
taken liquid food that contains the
most powerful elements of nourish-
ment.
IL Is easy TO make this test and
prove these statements by changing
from coffee TO Postum. Read The
Road to wellville," in pkgs. There's
q Reason"

There is a vast difference between
proper and improper methods to in
nuence legislation, and in whatever
laws may be enacted on this subject a
distinction should be made between
them. l am in hearty accord with the
doctrine laid down by the supreme
court of the United States as far back
as 1858, when In the case OF Marshall
VS.. baltimore Il Ohio Railway Co. that
tribunal said: "All persons whose in
terests may In any way be affected by
any public or private act of legisla-
ture have an undoubted right to urge
their claims and arguments, either In
person or by counsel. protesting to act
Tor them before legislative commit
tees, as well as In courts OF justice,
but hired agent assuming to act in a
different character in practicing deceit
on the legislature and SER
vices involving the use of secret means
or the exercise of sinister or personal
influences are illegal"
To legitimate services rendered in
legitimate way, no reasonable OBJ
lection can be made. But all appear.
ances for or against measures before
the legislature should be made public
ly and before the proper committees
only. There should be no lobby that
VIII not stand the light of the fullest
publicity.
Legislation of the nature | have in
mind has already been enacted in New
York, New Jersey. Iowa, Wisconsin
Minnesota, Missouri, Colorado and 9th
er states, and in recent conversation
with the governors of several of these
states | have been assured that it has
very largely eliminated the evil al
which it is directed.
/ emphatically renew the recon-
mendation previously made by me that
you enact law that will free this
state from the corrupting influence OF
the professional lobbyist and provide
for the registration and regulation OF
all persons who appear before the leg
islature or committees thereof to urge
either the passage or defeat of pending
measures. The law should not apply &c
duly accredited counsel or representa-
tives of municipalities, public boards
and public institutions.
An oversight in connection with the
| passage of the bill asking the regular
| biennial appropriation for the main
tenance of the Central Michigan Nor
NAL College at Mt. Pleasant rendered
that act invalid. In order to provide
necessary funds for this praiseworthy
institution, it is necessary that the
required appropriation be made at thi:
| extra session.
