ORPHEUM

From start to finish, the bill at
the Orpheum this week is a classy
one and is seemingly destined to
be the greatest hit of the season SO
far. John B. Hamer and company
in its presentation of THE Devil
and Tom Walker" is scoring a
great success, for the playlet is fam
tastic and novel. 1t is impressive
and convincing in part, though in
tended for the most part to pro-
duce laughter, which it does in
good measure. David Walters as
the devil has the hideous laugh and
pointed features that places touch
of awe in the hearts of his listen
ers. Sometimes that laugh with the
horns and scarlet robes of the
Sinking imps, draws one to mood
of imagining that all the horrors of
the ternal place of torture for the
wicked is back among the red hot
rocks from whence the screams of
anguish and groans of suffering
come. Out of the play great moral
lesson comes, as we'll as the sub
stance for great big laugh. Chas-
sino, the shadowgraphist, is a mar
vel. With lightning like rapidity,
he changes the shadow of his hands
on a curtain to represent various
animals and figures. Patrice, as
sisted by Charles Hutchinson,
brings out. all there is in a clever
playlet entitled the Lobbyist"
Hutchinson represents clever
western legislator and Patrice ap-
pears as woman lobbyist who for
part of the time goes him just
one better in point of craftiness in
her attempts to have fraudulent
bill passed for the railroads. Wit
toria & Giorgetta dance lively jigs
on their hands, with feet in air
and finish with a grotesque boxing
bout-one with the gloves on his
hands and the other with them on
his feet. The one with the feet up
wins. The Hopkins sisters are
pleasing. Ben Welch is an exceed
ingly funny fellow, good enter
tainer and one of the favorites.
Some sensational trapeze work Is

CONGRESS CONvENES
IN CUBA
SESSION OF BODY is DEVOTED TO
LISTENING TO THE PRESI-
DENTS MESSAGE.

/ Havana, April 5.-Congress convened
this afternoon, the sessions of both
houses being devoted to the reading of
the presidents message. The general
tone of the message was hopeful and
encouraging, but warning was
sounded as follows:
THE political problem of our country
as in the case of some others of SIM
liar origin and education, contains one
evil element which in the visible order
manifests itself in a tendency to Gre
ate and maintain third party, even
other factions arising from the vice Of
social disintegration which unfortunat.
ly seems characteristic of the south
ern race. The same condition is man
ifested in the tendency toward rebel
lion against everything wearing the
badge of discipline, order, method and
subordination to the will of social COL
lectivity. In this we have one faction
which, small as it may be, is not en-
couraging.'
The message says the condition of
the national treasury is fairly satisfac-
tory. There was a balance on March
27 of $2,510,363, as against $209,479 on
JANUARY ~, dt tne emu OF american IN
tervention.
The president makes an urgent plea
for a new treaty with the United
States favoring a reduction in dutNs
on imports consisting of the neces-
saries Of life, for the purpose of low
ering the present high cost of living
The president reports good progress
in the organization of the new perma-
nent army.

MAKES HARD FIGHT
AGAINST COURT
TRIAL
GOVERNOR CHARLES N. HASKELL
ATTEMPTS TO HAVE INDlCT.
MENTS QUASHED.

Tulsa, Okla, April 5.-Governor
Charles N. Haskell, when called before
the federal court today to answer to
indictments charging him with fraud in
connection with Muskogee town lot
cases, made hard fight against the
case coming to trial. Judge Marshall
Of Utah, who is presiding, heard ex-
tended arguments by both sides in the
matter of Haskells demurrer, and like
ly will render a decision tomorrow.
Governor HaskelPs attorneys began
their fight by asking that the indict-
ments be quashed, charging Special At
torney General Rush with misconduct
in conducting the grand jury inquiry
which resulted in the indictments 1t
was also charged that the grand jury
had been illegally drawn, that ste
nographer had been present during the
inquiry and that incompetent testi-
mony had been the basis of the in
dictments.
These allegations were vigorously de-
MED by the government counsel.
A great crowd attended the opening
of the trial. People came from all
parts of the state to see the unusual
spectacle of a governor on trial for al
legged fraud.

G0MPERS ADDRESSES
COLLEGE STUDENTS

New York, April 5.-Samuel Com
pers, president of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, talked to the stu
dents of Columbia university today on
Justice in Labor Disputes" He said:
Strikes, boycotts and lockouts are
evils which it is our duty to make
unnecessary. I hope to see the labor
man prevent all such things. 1t is
necessary that the workers be organ
lied to check greed. There is one
thing at least which is worse than
strikes, and that is demoralized and
depraved manhood
Many of Mr.. Gompers' listeners
were students in engineering courses.
To these he appealed particularly,
urging them when in mining camps
to see that the labor conditions were
what they should be. In many in
stances, he said, the conditions under
which miners work in this country
are inhuman.

MRS. SAMPSON SURE
OF FINAL ACQU|TTAL

Lyons, N. Y, April 5-Calmly assert
ing her innocence and belief in her ul-
innate acquittal, Mrs. George Allyn
Sampson was placed on trial today be-
fore Justice Albert T. Rich of the
supreme court on charge Of shooting
and killing her husband, Harry Samp-
son, a nephew of Admiral Sampson, at
the Allyn homestead, Near Macedon,
n. Y, in November, 1908.

Rochester The state contends that
Mrs. Sampson killed her husband with
a rifle found in the pantry, re-cocked,
and left the discharged shell half
elected.
From the states witnesses the de-
fense possibly will seek to show that
Mrs. Sampson was not down stairs at
the time Of the shooting, being on the
second floor.

THE JUDGE REFUSES
TO APPOINT
RECEIVER

Boston, April 5.-On the ground
that the matter was within the ju-
risdiction of the United States cir
cult court, Judge Morton in the
supreme court today refused to ap-
point receiver for the estate of
the late Andrew j. Davis of Mon
tana, or to issue an injunction
against the removal to Montana Of
any of the property of the estate
located in Massachusetts,.
Proceedings asking for receiver
and for the injunction were brought
by Herbert p. Cummings Of Ware,
and Ellen f. Corpue of Somers,
Conn, against Eva A. Ingersoll,
widow and administrative of the es-
tate of Robert G. Ingersoll and a
number of heirs of Mrs. Davis. The
complainants have certain claims
against the estate.

ENGLAND AWAKENING
TO A|RSH|P
PROBLEM
ADMIRAL SCOTT ADVOCATES a
TWo-PoWER STANDARD IN
AEROPLANES ALSO.

London, April 5.-Great Britain
seems to be waking up to the fact that
the other nations of the world are leav-
ing her behind in the race for COM
mand of the air. While the members
of the house of commons were drawing
the attention of the government to the
fact that Germany has built, or is
building, a dozen dirigible airships and
urging the government to take up with
energy the construction of British
fleet, this afternoon there was being
held meeting in the Mansion house
under the craftsmanship of the lord
mayor of London in support Of the
same object.
Among those present were Admiral
Charles Beresford, Prince Louis of Bat
tenberg, Lord Curzon, Sir Hiram Max
i'm and Admiral Sir Percy Scott all of
whom heartily supported energetic at-
ton.
Admiral Scott advocated a two
power" standard in airships as we'll as
in Dreadnaughts, and he mentioned in
cidentally that the navy had designed
a new gun which, at a distance Of 5000
feet, could be exceedingly destructive
to war Arships.

way to Washington to answer to the

assistance in the development of the
country.

An EXTRA SESSION
IS TO BE CALLED

Denver, April 6.-The session Of the
legislature ended by limitation at mid
night. At midnight the clocks of both
the senate and house were turned
back while the legislators wrangled
over routine measures which 1t was
desired to crowd through. Governor
Shafroth announced tonight that he
would call an extra session to pass
measures that he had indorsed.
1t was hoped that some action
would be taken on the direct primary
measure, the railroad commission bill,
the bank guaranty bill and the resolu-
ton providing for the submission Of a
proposed constitutional amendment
for the initiative and referendum bill,
but the legislature adjourned without
passing any Of these measures. The
initiative and referendum measure was
killed in the senate during the fore
noon, and the other measures were
tied up in committees at the time Of
adjournment.

Citizens Ticket Wins.

Special to The Daily Missoulian,
Glendive, April 5.-Due to fac
tionalism within the ranks Of the re-
publican party, as result of which
the party support was divided, the
citizens ticket made an almost clean
sweep of it today. The republicans
elected only one alderman, in the Sec
ond ward. There were only two tick
cts in the field. The result was as
follows
For mayor-T F. Hagan, citizens
1874; DIR. A. A. Baker. republican, 153
For treasurer-C A. Banker, citi-
zens, 1874; F. H. Hudson, republican,
$50.
For police magistrate-G. NJ Bur
dick, indorsed by citizens, 1911; III. F.
Rosenberg, indorsed by republicans,
1888.
For aldermen:
First ward Zone to elect)-E s.
Herrick. citizens, 154; A. Fl. Holland,
republican, 70.
Second ward Cwo to elect)-TisdaIe.
citizens 81; Thomas Kean, repub-
lican, 7S; j. H. Pennington, citizens.
70; Joseph Wester. republican, s.
The result of today's election is
robbed of any political significance
because of the fact that every nomi-
nee on the so-called citizens ticket
except T. F. Hagan is a republican.
