JAIL FOR HARRINGTON
Takes Two Detectives to
Overcome Fighting
Author.

indianapolis. Ind, Dec. 25.-Filled
with the lighting spirit of his hero,
Monsieur Beaucaire, Booth Tarking-
ton, in the early hours of Christmas
morning. roundly thumped two OF In
dianapolis guardians of the peace. In
cidentauy he received few bumps
himself and finally wound up in the
city prison.
There a desk sergeant with literary
inclinations permitted him TO go free
on his own reeognizance. after he had
promised to journey straight home and
disturb the peace Of Indiana's capital
no more. This was not until he had
been slated to answer for charge of
resisting an officer and had promised
TO appear in court.
The hearing was to have been held
this morning, but the author was not
to be found, and continuance until
Saturday was granted. In the mean
time Detectives Manning and Samuels
are nursing their bruises and prepar-
ing to tell of the writer's prowess when
given chance in court.
Won't Go Home; Fracas Begins.
The opening scene Of the early morn
ing drama was at the corner OF Wash
ington street and Capitol avenue. An
excited voice had called the police sta
ton on a phone, declaring riot was
in progress and warning the officers
that unless they hurried some one
might be killed.
Detectives Manning and Samuels re-
| sponded and saw the two men running
away, while Harrington and friend
were standing near a carriage. the
friend trying to induce the author to
go home The detectives. knowing
Harrington and not wishing to arrest
him, joined their pleadings to those of
his friend, but he paid no attention.
The officers ordered him to go home,
intimating that refusal would be fol-
lowed by trip to the station house.
The threat Infatuated Harrington and
he began to abuse the officers round
ly, defying them to arrest him.
Seeing he would not go peaceably,
the officers tried to put the writer into
a carriage. He fought like a tiger,
striking the officers with his fists, kick
ing their shins, and hurting anathemas
at them. The detectives did not want
to use their maces and went into a
clinch hold. the three rolling upon the
ground. Detective Manning sat on the
authors head and beckoned Samuels to
get hold of his feet, but as the latter
approached Harrington raised both
feet and let fly with terrific force, both
feet striking Samuels squarely in the
stomach and hurting him backwards
into a gutter, where he sat down VIC
lently.

FIGHT SPLITS HOUSE
Williams DeArmond En-
counter Causes Breach
Slump in Harmony.

Washington, D. c. Dec. ga seri-
Gus breach has been created in the
democratic party by the personal en-
counter between Representative John
Sharp Williams. the minority leader,
and Representative De Almond of Mis-
souri, on the floor of the house sew
eral days ago. 1t will lessen the
chances of the election Of a demo-
cratic president, as both Williams and
De Almond have a strong following in
the house and party.
During the present session of con
gress it will be necessary for both the
republicans and democrats to make
the material to be used uring the next
national campaigns. William Jennings
Bryan was in Washington when con-
gress convened and he had a number
of conferences with Williams, De Ar
mond, and other democrats and plans
for the conduct of the campaign were
discussed and agreed upon.
Harmony" was to be the watch
word and John Sharp Williams. who
has been bitterly opposed to the nom
ination of Bryan. buried his personal
opinions in return for Bryan's support
in the contest for minority leader and
promised to give Bryan his loyal sup
port for the nomination ana to coop
crate with De Almond in providing
campaign material to be used in at
lacking the republicans.

But the fsticuff between the two
leaders has upset all these plans and
during the session they Will be work
ing at cross purposes Efforts have
been made to adjust the trouble, but
without success. both the belligerents
refusing to be friends, placing the
blame for the trouble on each other
The serious feature Of the disagree
ment so far as the democratic party is
concerned is that the democratic
membership Of the house is about
equally divided between Williams and
De Almond. Both are able men and
popular with their adherents.

POLI'S
BLANCH WALSH.

Managers Wagenhals and Kemper, who have rendered several distinct services to the stage in this country in recent years, will present Blanche Walsh at Polls tomorrow evening in The Kreutzer Sonata" a tragedy of modern domestic life, written by the great Russian playwright, Jacob Godin. The performance of this play will serve to introduce this viz orous and prolific writer to English speaking playgoers. All his dramas heretofore have been played solely in the Yiddish language. In The Kreutzer Sonata" for instance We learn the tragedy of the heroine's life when the play begins. It is a tragedy which Oue can see must in- evitably involve both herself and her family as a ultimate catastrophe. Every means is used to bury this tragedy in oblivion, but in vain Knowledge of the fact spreads and precipitates one situation after an- other until the final explosion can be no longer aaverted. Of course. in the mere announcement of Blanche WaIsh's name the play-gOing public knows that no flippant or trivial play is to be offered. but even Miss Walsh has not hitherto made quite such a radical departure as she is now doing with MT Gordin's play and she has made no move that has been antici. pated with keener interest than this Prices 25 cents 10 s1.5O.

Row Politicians Figure Out tbe
 VOle for President.

Washington, Dec 1T. - Political mathematicians have already begun to figure the lineup in the next re- publican national convention, as it looks to the man-up-a-tree at this time. To some extent the lineup now is rather one sided, in that it gives Taft pretty close to one-half the strength of the convention. That is the way the vote would stand if 1t were taken to-day, it is declared by well posted men. But the favorite sons-Fairbanks, Hughes, Cannon, Knox, LaFollette-may take much strength away from the Ohio man be- fore the doors of the great convention open.
 Here is the lineup as it is figured out by a man of prominence, made up entirely from the viewpoint of the present time:
 Taft-Alabama, p; California, 20; Delaware, 6; Florida, 10; Iowa, 26; Kansas, IS; Louisiana, IS: Massachus- etts, 32: Michigan, 26; Minnesota, 22;; Montana, 6: Nebraska. 16; Nevada, G.; North Carolina, 9; Ohio, 46; Oregon, s: South Dakota, s; Tennessee, Fl; Utah, 6; Virginia, 24; Washington, 10; Wyoming. 6; Oklahoma, II; Alaska, ?: Arizona, ?; Hawaii. ?; New Mexico, ?: Porto Rico, 2-total, 424.
 Farbanks-Arkansas, IS; Georgia, 2G; Idaho, 6; Kentucky. 26; Maine, ' F: Mississippi. 20; Missouri, 36; New Hampshire, 8; Rhode Island, &; Texas, 36; Vermont, 8; West Virginia, II; : Maryland. 16-total 234.
 Hughes-New York, IS; Connecti- cut 12-total 90.
 Knox-Pennsylvania, 6S; New Jer- sey 22-total, 90.
 Cannon-Illinois, B; Michigan, ? District of Columbia 2-total 5G.
 Follette-Wisconsin. 26.
 The combined opposition to Taft foots LID to 4S6 votes, while the Taft strength runs to 424 According tC
 the opposition, that is the top round
 the secretary of the treasury car
 reach. and after the first ballot it i: figured that the opposition will be
 gin to center upon some other man
 It IS tUllSiutitu pOSolDlt LIldt tl'
 votes of LaFollette might go to Taf
 should it get down to a question o
 two men, but the LaFollette peopl
 are now figuring on the Taft vot . coming to them.
 ., In the lineup New Jersey is give
 to Knox. That is because Senator = Kean and Briggs. who control tn IF New Jersey organization, are might il friendly to Knox. The vote of tn & state is just as likely to be found i ,n the Hughes column.
 k Foraker is given no votes at al ot because it is believed that if primar in is held Taft will carry Ohio and sC le cure the entire delegation. If thel e. is no primary Foraker will get ey number of congressional districts an H. with that nucleus will have somethin Ti- to rally round.

Carter, Gussie Taylor X Co, the company on this occasion including a bull dog, have knock about act which the audience did not consider bad. It is good curtain raiser. The closing number of the bill is contributed by Mareena, Ne varo and Mareena, equilibrists. They do some difficult feats of hand bal ancing.

to Erin" last night was played excel-
 lently and the quintette deserved a
 big hand. They also played a selec- tion from "The Merry Widow" which
 needless to say was well received. It
 is somewhat different from the aver age musical numbers and should pull strong during the week. Bernar's marionettes were down on the pro- gramme, but no such act appeared and the audience undoubtedly was glad the number was missing. In it's place were Baldwin and Elliot, comedy jugglers and club swingers. The act was full of good stuff and
 although a few of the cons" were Iantiquated, they were sent out in
 such way that the house liked the entire act. Their wind up is a club

COBALT IN ITS INFANCY

That Cobalt is merely In its infan. cy, as a mining camp, is proved by the fact that new companies are being formed almost daily, and because new and rich veins are being located with greater and greater frequency. One of the most recent of these Is the Crown Prince Silver company, of which Geo. E. Foster. member of par liament and former minister of France of Canada. is the president, and H. Mason Raborg, of No. 2 Broad street, New York, is the treasurer. The com pany is capitalized at $1.500,000, the par value of the shares being S5.
 Twenty acres of land have been ac- quired in the immediate vicinity of the Temiskamins and Green Meehan and seven distinct veins have already been located, all showing extremely high values. MT. Raborg received a telegram to the effect that at the S0- foot level in the Temiskaming vein running s6,000 to the ton has been discovered, and this vein has been traced to and entirely through the Crown Prince. The New York office of the company has been opened in No. Broad street, and is In charge of Mir. Raborg-

sooDLINo MADE ooIous.

Legislative boodling is again made odious by the vote of the Arkansas Senate expeIling Senator Reuben R. Adams after refusing to accept his resignation. -
 The Senator loses his place in the Arkansas Legislature for paltry S10O, which his conscience did not permit lim to keep. In the session of two ears ago be sold his vote on the cor
 lpt bill relating to the building of
 ne new State Capitol, but afterwards returned the money to Senator Butt, who had been tried and convicted for his corrupt practices on that measure.
 Both Butt and Adams well earned the punishment they have received The purchase and sale of votes in a legislative body Is, as Governor Folk has said in his message to the Mis- souri Legislature, crime against pop ular government which cannot be too sternIy repressed.
 Arkansas's successful war upon leg islatiye corruption is an encouraging lesson for other states. It proves that 1t is possible to detect and punish corrupt lobbying and bribery. It gives force to Governor Folks recommends ton that lobbying with members of the Legislature for pay be declared a crime by the laws of Missouri.
