SILENT ON PROTECTION.
Nothing to Say About Charge
That Houses Pay $3.50 a
Month to Run.
SILENT ON PROTECTION,

Police Commissioner Bingham was
asked to-day to make some comment on
the charge Of District-Attorney Jerome
that eighteen gambling houses ran all
summer i'll the Tenderloin, paying from
$3.50 a month apiece down. according to
their receipts for police protection. The
Commissioner refused to go into the
matter in detail. but dictated the fol-
lowing statement.
II hope Mr.. Jerome will get the po-
lice to do their full duty, as. according
to the morning papers, he says it is
his duty to do so.
My recollection is that about year
ago there was a procession Of gam
blers to the Criminal Courts Building
who promised somebody they would
never, never gamble again.
1T is generally supposed that the
purpose of the Bowling Act was to
send gamblers to Jail. Has anybody
heard OF gambler being sent to jail
since the law was enacted? Did Can
field, for instance, go 10 jail?'
1t was pointed out to the Police Com
missioner ;hat his statement scarcely
answered the direct charges of the Dis
t-Attorney that policemen We're
taking protection money and making
no effort to close gambling houses, He
refused, however, to make any further
comment.
In talk on the gambling situation
last might Mr.. jerome announced that
he intends to devote some attention
from now on to finding out what rela-
lions exists between the gamblers and
certain police officers In speaking o!

SAID:
Gambling houses cannot run unless

"Coming Thro' the Rye"

Coming Thro' the Rye" which oc-
cupies a pre-eminent place among the
/ good comic operas on the American
stage of today, was produced at the
Grand this afternoon before a large
audience and will be repeated there
again tonight, and the folks who like
an entertaining musical show of the
first water should not miss the oppor-
tunity of seeing it. This musical
comedy is unquestionably one of the
conspicuously great success es of tho
times. Its record as a drawing attrac-
ton is almost without parallel in the
Ehistory Of big musical shows, and the
Ancomiums which have been bestowed
upon 1t as an entertainment leave no
doubt as to it's thoroughly high class
and extremely enjoyable character.
Frank Lalor heads the cast produc-
ing the show and it is large and
capable one. Mr.. Lalor has few equals
am ng the comedians on the stage at
the present time and his efforts as
fun maker were uproariously success
full this afternoon when he fairly con-
vulsed the audience with laughter.

'The New Black Crook"


At the Grand on Monday night.
Messrs. Miller and Pohn will present
a new version of 1.-The Black Crook"
one of the greatest successes ever
known to America.
In reviving this notable spectacle,
the management while they have to
some extent followed tradition. have
not hesitated to introduce much that
is modern, but not so mich that 1.-The
Black Crook will lose its identity.
The version Of the play, for it is I'M
like the new style of extrava ganza and
can lay claim to the title play in
asnlrch as 1t possesses a definite plot.
Is an entirely new and undermined
one. 1t is divided into three acts and
fifteen scenes and the story of Hert-
zog the Crook. Rudolph and Amina,
the youthful hero and heroine, and
the wicked Count Wolfenstein is
carried out to its logical conclusion.
While the old idea of ballet has been
discarded in the present production,
there will be no lack of femininity as
instead of ballet dancers, a large
chorus of beautiful girls is employed.
There are also TO be introduced
several high class vaudeville acts
among them being that of The Dona-
zetta Family, noted European aero
bats; a novelty costume singing act by
Pierce and Roslyn. The dramatic cast
includes J. Edward Pierce. William G.

George Fletcher. This mirthful, musical
farce offers light entertainment of

in all the cities visited this season. The
musical numbers run from solos to sex

and sentimental to parody and topical.
Strong Bill for the Majestic.
There are four feature acts on the
vaudeville bill which Mr.. Roy Craw
ford, the manager of the Majestic. has
booked for the show for next week at
this house and there is every indication
that it should be one of the very best
vaudeville shows which has been seen
in Topeka this season. and there have
been q ,ot of good ones at that.
Miss Maude Rockwell, the California
Nightingale, is one of the features. She
will be remembered with pleasure by
Topekans who attended the E-ks' big
benefit show at the Auditorium two
years ago, when she sang herself into
great popularity. She is. one of the
real excellent singers on the vaudeville
stage and her reappearance in this city
will be most welcome.
