King Bompopka in the Isle of Spice
Bradley TheAter
isLE OF SPICE

With fresh scenery, faces, costumes, elect ricai and stage effects, B.. C. Whit ney's piauant musical mixture comes 10 the Bradley theatre Monday, April aO. It is only mythical isle that Is supposed 10 lie in the Sea of Japan. It always summer there, always merry and tuneful, and the inhabitants live their lives as do other folks, have their love affairs, their joys, their sorrows, and make their funny little laws. King Bompopka takes unto himself wife every seven years. Each of these wives has to undergo period of training in the Tomb of Silence for seven years. She is then supposed to know enough To hold her tongue and k married to the king. Teresa, owner of half the spice gelds in the kingdom, has been educated in America, and while there meets a young officer of the United State marines, Lieutenant ketehall, and there Is a mutual love affair. Up- on her return to her native isle Teresa Is selected by the king for his next wife. She objects strenuously to the tomb and to the king. The kings ad- visers insist that Teresa go to the tomb in order to conform to the law, and to further their own sehsme to place As- bepa, their ally, on the throne. The king eudeavors to have the tomb law set aside. This is opposed to get Tere- sa put away for seven years so as to get possession of her rich spice fields. This is the condition of affairs when Lieutenant ketchall lands on the is- lands with detachment of marines from the |. S. gunboat Roosevelt. Ketehall meets Teresa, learns the state of things, and to prevent the marriage places the island under the flag oi the United States. Two marines, Macki- new and 0sGrady, are sent up in a bal loon for praetice the balloon lands on the island near the kings palace, and the occupants are taken for messengers from the sun. These men are intro duced to the king as a magician and an astrologer. The king commands the astroloeer to produce money for him, and OH his failure to do so, they are both sent to the Tomb Of Silence as substitute for Teresa, and then the King orders preparations Tor nus wed- ding. The Lieutenant trains the guns Of his warship on the king palace, le- resa turns over the spice fields to the king, the sailors are released, the king maTries Asbena, who has been in the tomb. and there is happy understan- ding for all.
 The musical numbers in the Isle of Spice have become famous and con sist of "The Goo Goo Man. Peggy Brady aSiIly Sailors. "fon and l. v the gorgeous transformation finale, s.The Star of Fate, "rhe Broomstick Witches. ' st'ncle Sam's Marines. " The cast is headed by that famous CO., median, Charles \. Pusey.

OF THE ST AT L
BAR ASSOCIATION.

The annual meeting Of the Mary
land State, Bar Association brings
together members of an organization
which can boast long life and many
distinguished men, says the "Balti-
more News. It has had upon its
rolls the brightest minds the State
contained, and its deliberations are
always of interest. From time i'm
memorial it has been the custom for
men in other walks of life to have
their quip and jest at tie IA y
expense, doubtless as one way o.
ting even for uncomfortable MON
spent under cross examination ." 1
revenge for the exaction of big &c
Prejudice has also existed aIaIr.s'
the lawyer since tine was young.
Peter the Great on a visit to West
minister inquired why such mutt
tude of busy people swarmed about
the courts. Upon being told they
were lawyers. he replied: "Lawyers!
Why, l have but four in my whole
kingdom, and | design to hang two
of them as soon as l get home
Sir Edward Coke, as we all know,
said: treason is the life of the law;
nay, the common law itself is moth
ing else but reason" But in these
later days perhaps many will agree
with the sarcastic comment, "Strange
that, reason being always the same,
law grounded thereon should be cap
able of so great alterations" and who
would drink with the legal gentle
man who proposed to toast ITO the
glorious uncertainties of the law
Every playwright took fall toll Of
the law. CDar.cg MackIin in Love
a Ia Mode said: The law is 4 sort
of hocus-pocus science tLat smiles in
yer face while it picks ger pocket,

CONVENTION STAMPED s
IN WILD BRYAN
OUTBREAK.

The Bryan demonstration on
Wednesday, which lasted 81 minutes,
at last involved the Maryland dele
cation. and, led by Governor Croth-
ers and Congressman Talbot, 1t got
into the bandwagon. Most OF the
delegates are now prepared TO vote
for Bryan.
Georgia was the only Southern
State to stand fast. While the hosts
were marching, cheering and singing
"Marching Through Georgia." q
determined assault was made by the
frenzied Bryan shouters upon the
Georgia standard, which up to this
time had been kept firmly rooted IN
It's place. The delegation showed III
quick fashion that it was as danger
Gus to :'march through Georgia" as
ever it had been in the days of the
war. They rallied around their lit
tie yellow fagpole bearing the name
of their State on white, against a
background of blue, and stuck
stanchly to their guardianship.
Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Longworth
and her husband occupied seats near
the Maryland delegation in the al
ternoon. One delegate gave her q
Maryland badge, which she pinned
on. and others decorated the Con-
gresham with Bryan buttons.
On the first test OF strength in the
convention Colonel Gufey and the
anti-Bryanites lost, the Guffey dele
gates being unseated by vote of
6l5 to 3s7.
Attorney, General Straus, of Mary
land, championed the cause of Col.
Gufey. He denounced the methods
of those trying to read the Pennsyl-
vanian out of the party and drew up
the minority report to be made to
the convention.
The platform committee heard and
considered Bryan's arguments in
favor of great navy for the protec-
ton of the Pacific against japanese
aggression, as well as for the insur-
ance of peace OF the Atlantic sea-
board. They made a deep impress
sion on the convention.
The navy planks advocated by
Lewis Nixon, of New York, and
Capt. Richmond P. Hobson, of Ala
bama, both naval experts, are being
considered seriously by the commit
tee on resolutions. The delegations
from the Pacific Slope demand a
plank for a great naval increase.
The committee on credentials yot-
cd to report unseating the McCarren
delegates from Kings county, New
York, giving seats to the anti Guffey
delegates from Pennsylvania, and
seating the johnson delegates from
Ohio, the Sullivan delegates from
Illinois and the Dubois delegates
frem Idaho.

| These were all turned over to Cover

ment about them when the Committee

urged the adoption of a good road
