TWO WOMEN GIVE
VERSION OF FIGHT
Tell of the Encounter in Which
Berthiaume Chastised
Young Rosenthal
Dentist Convicted of Striking
Man He Accused of Being
His Wife's Affinity

DR.. Henry n. Berthiaume, Al Palm
Police Judge Deasy yesterday upon
Charles Rosenthal Jr., 2201 California
street, in front of the Orpheum on the
afternoon of Saturday, May 1, and was
ordered to appear for sentence on Mon
day.
Rosenthal testified that as he came
out of the Orpheum Mrs. Berthiaume
and Miss Ethel Bethel spoke to him
and he lifted his hat. Just then DR..
Berthiaume came up to him, told him
he wanted to speak to him and. taking
hold of his arm, led him to the street
and struck him a blow in the face.
MISS BETHEL TESTIFIES
Miss Bethel testified that she was
at the Orpheum with Mrs. Berthiaume
and when they came out Mrs. Berthi-
aume suggested they should wait for
Rosenthal. When Rosenthal came out
she and Mrs. Berthiaume greeted him
with a How do you dog" and DIR.
Berthiaume came up and took Rosen-
thai aside. She heard him say to Ro-
senthal, Here, young man, I want to
speak to YOU" Rosenthal took hold
of DR.. Berthiaumes arm and Miss
Bethel took hold of RosenthaIs coat
tails to pull him back, scenting trouble.
She saw DIR. Berthiaume strike Rosen-
thai while they were in the middle of
the street, but she did not hear what
he said.
That was the case for the prosecu-
tion and Mrs. Berthiaume was called
to the stand for the defense. Her tes-
timony was practically the same as
that of Miss Bethel.
HAD WARNED ROSENTHAL
DR.. Berthiaume took the stand and
stated that he had warned Rosenthal
before not to speak to his wife, but
an objection was made and sustained
ruling out anything that occurred prior
to the battery Continuing the defend
ant said he saw Rosenthal waiting for
his wife. He went up to him and said
do you know who l amp Rosenthal
replied that he did not care, and de-
fendant said, Il want you to leave my
wife alone Rosenthal answered with
a sneer. Don't give me any bull talk
like that" and defendant struck him.

NEW YORK, March 6-In a newly i'm
ported musical comedy the chief comedian
~solloquizes for a time on the advantages
OF a stage career and concludes:
I've always thought I'd like to be an
actor, but it must cut in on ones evenings

That isn't the only disadvantage Take
the question OF rehearsals and go the
round Of half a dozen actors of the medic

cases very much more.
For these weeks there is no pay and IL

weeks of unpaid work the production Will
fail in a week. fail perhaps II the mana
ger is untrustworthy, without salaries for
even that week being forthcoming.
This fate doesn't always affect only the
actors Of lesser class. One of the best
known OF American character actors, a
man who has had prominent parts in a
number of successes, spent practically an
entire winter in unpaid rehearsing some two
or three years ago. He appeared in four
successive productions, each elaborate, but
each destined to a run OF not more than
two weeks. II his salary were $50 a week,

pay for this winter. In addition he had
the extra good luck to see a play OF his
own. In which. however, he did not APP

years ago that the importation OF foreign
actresses for our stage WAS over forever.
II was customary for managers TO say
that the days OF Helena Modjeska and
Fanny ~Jsnauschek, her predecessor. had
come to an end. and that no manager
would conceive again such an idea as that
of Maurice Grau. who once thought Of
having Jane Hading learn English that
she might fill the vacancy caused by the
absence OF a flrst-olass emotional actress
here. But 1t only took the appearance Of
Ala Na1lmova and Bertha Kulich to show
again the fsliibility Of managerial judg-
ments.
And these actresses had not the ad-
vantage OF their predecessors Of a score
or more years ago. Then the school OF
