The play is by David Belasco, and receives its title from the leading character. It is a drama of mingled comedy and sentiment. and proved one of MT Belasco's most telling suc- cesses, running at the Belasco theater, New York, an entire year.
 It is not often that patrons of the local theater have the opportunity of witnessing so great a work in their own theater, but MT. Belasco deter mined to try the experiment of play ing some of the smaller cities an ex- permine which is most costly one in this instance, However, if the pat ronage is of such 6 nature as to war rant 1t, MT.

The daily morning journal and courier., 1907-09-06

The last day came, with S5 members of the senate present. The bill was taken up when the chamber was crowd ed with house members who were anx-
 ious to see what would happen. The senator from the Twenty fifth led the fight for the bill. The senator from the Fourteenth was called into the cor ridor by legislative agent who all session had been interested in railroad matters. He was held there while three roll calls were taken with a tie vote of r which the presiding officer immediately broke in favor of the bill. The presiding officer lectured the body on filibustering tactics which provoked the opponents of the bill and there was a remonstrance, and an apology by the presiding officer. A senator who had favored the bill up to this time but who was thought to have entered into a deal to kill the bill as an extremity suddenly found that he was being called to the telephone from his home town and was told that his constituents would not stand for a change of his position. This sen ator is quite Sunday school worker

MCINTYRE AND HEATH IN THE HAM TREE AT THE HYPER
 ION THEATER.

In all its history the New York theater has never held such large au- diences as gathered there during the long runs, last season and this, of Me Intyre and Heath in Klaw & Erlan- gers production of "The Ham Tree'' by long odds the most humorous mu- sidal entertainment on earth. People laugh till they are exhausted and are glad indeed when the end of an act gives them a respite from mirthful convulsions Mcintyre and Heath play minstrels in the first act, stranded minstrels In the second and an In- dian rajah and rance in the third. Their conversation" in the second act would, as Josh Billings used to express it. make horse laugh" Mir. McIn- tyre is the doleful one while MT. Heath is the hopeful-seeing hams growing on trees, rivers of beer, swamps of schweitzer and flocks of sausages flying through the air. This scene between these veteran come- dians is admittedly the most humor- ous ever presented by any two per- formers.
