at both the Orpheum and Belasco the
aters subscriptions were taken up for
the victims of the Second street cafe
explosion. AS the result of their gen.
lerosity 1854 was added to the relief fund.
The ideA of asking the Shriners to
contribute to the aid Of the sufferers
was Potentate Flint's. During the in
termission at the Orpheum he appeared
on the stage and after he had silenced
the calls for a vaudeville stunt by an
impressive wave of his hand explained
his plan.

can show it than by loosening up and
doing something for the victims Of the
explosion. Outside of those who were
killed and left families dependent upon
them many of those who were MANNED
and crippled helped support other per-
sons. There couldn't be better time
for generosity and there can be no bet
ter way for us to signalize the build
ing Of our new temple than by such
generous act"
Collectors were appointed to go among
the audience and gather the offerings,
and when the amount was counted 1t
was found that 1927 had been taken up.
At the Belasco the response was even
more generous. Mr.. Flint went imme-
diately to the Belasco after leaving the
Orpheum and made a similar speech
between the third and fourth acts.
"Count me in,' came score of calls,
even before the hats could be passed.

FRED HIN ES

vey dwelt upon Mr.. Barnum's valuable
service to the theater and to the city,
and upon his contributions to his pro-
fession. He deplored his leaving the
city, but conveyed the wishes of all his
brothers of the mystic shrine for suce
cess in new fields.
When the cheers which filled the the
ater subsided Mr.. Barnum undertook to
thank the donors of the cup, but his
emotion confined him to a few simple
but eloquent remarks.
Nearly all the Shriners were accom-
panied by women friends and every
seat was taken in both the Belasco and
Orpheum theaters. THE Crisis was
unusually we'll played, and 1t was a gay
multitude that found its way to Levy's
afterward. At the Orpheum theater the
regular vaudeville bill was given.
In the celebration of their own good
fortune the Shriners included kindly
remembrance Of those less favored and

theater ten years, part of the time as
stage director, and the loving cup was
given to him on the eve of his departure
from the city. Although the intended
presentation had been kept from Mr..
Barnum few persons in the audience
knew of 1t, and spurred by the outburst
which greeted his entrance in the role
of Judge Whipple he carried his part
with so much life and spirit that his
fellow Shriners followed his every ap-
pearance with applause.
Hervey Presents Token
The presentation was made at the end
of the second act. William Rhodes
Hervey had been chosen to offer the
gift, and when Mr.. Barnum was recalled
he entered from the opposite wing. The
actor was slightly confused at the un-
expected situation, but recovered quick
ly as Mr.. Hervey began simple speech
before handing him the cup. Mr.. Her

streets, their interest was renewed at
the prospect of the spread and when
was as festive as ever
Covers were laid for 1000 ersons and
the 1000 were waiting nearly half an
hour before the spread was prepared.
The hungry Shriners filled every alcOve
of the restaurant and it required a
police sergeant and three patrolmen
TO keep them separated from the other
patrons and keep traffic moving
through the place. Nearly all. the
Shriners had taken their wives and
when the door of the banquet hall
swung open the crowd surged i'm with
as much zeal as a football squad maxi
ing a break for the training table.

elaborate spread than the ..ame indi-
Gates. There we're all the usual viands
served on such occasions and =. great
