TEMPLE FACTS.
Many Of the Clergy. soth Pretssesa
and Catholic, Enjoy Temple
Theatsr Performances.

People who have an idea that The
clergy do not attend the theater would
have that idea quickly dissipated b.
standing alongside Doortender LeWin'
at the Temple theater any afternooa'
or evening, particularly In the after
noon. or course this does not apply
to the clergy during Lent. But IT all
other seasons OF the Year eccleslaoto
of all denominations can he seen 81
the Temple performances. and tho.
management OF the Temple has yet to
hear single word OF criticism from
any OF them. A short time ago one
OF the best known and best beloved pas-'
tors in Detroit made an appeal to the
management for talent" To help out
in big entertainment that was TO
he given for very worthy charity.
Mr.. Moore issued instructions that
every act appearing that week at the
Temple be requested TO appear at the
charity entertainment, even II the
Temple had to pay the acts for an
extra performance. On the evening
,of the entertainment. the Temple
theater performers. as fast as they nm
ished their act at the Temple, were
whirled away In carriages TO the char
ity entertainment just as they came
from the footlights, and no performers
ever received such hearty and continu-
GUS applause as did these performers
from the scores of clergymen who oc-
cupied front seats.

HARRY HUBERT
FOR JUVENILE JUDGE
DEFEAT OF ROHNERT BILL AND
PROBABLE SUCCESS OF pURFEE
FEE MEASURE POINT TO THIS.

The defeat of Judge Rohnerts
juvenile court bill in Lansing. Tues
day, was hard blow to George Car
isles hopes OF becoming judge.
Mr.. Carlisle has been associated with
Judge Rohnert in the work OF the
court as il has been conducted for a
year, and he was a candidate for the
judgeship in case Judge Rohnert' S
bill providing for the establishment
OF separate juvenile court, had been
adopted.
The defeat OF this bill in all prob
ability means the passing OF Judge
Durfee's bill, which provides for the
establishment of the juvenile court as
part of the probate court, and the APP
pointment Of judge. Harry Huh
bert. for several years in the probate
Office. is said to be slated for the APP
pointment. which, under Judge Dur.
fees bill, carries a salary of $4,000.
George Carlisle's friends are dis
appointed over the action OF the legis
lature. They point to the efforts he
has made in behalf of the juveniles
and or the study he has made or the
question. They also point out that
Mr.. Hubert. although he has had
years of experience in the probate
Office, has never appeared in juvenile
court, and is not Il member OF the
bar.

under the act to he passed by the
Legislature, is an elective one. | will

GIVES $4,000 FOR
PAUL JONES CRYPT.
GEN. PORTER WON'T ACCEPT RE.
OF FAMOUS ADMIRAL's BODY.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-Gen.
United States at Paris. expended,
from his private purse. the sum OF
$4,000 in the successful search for
the body OF John Paul Jones, which
now rests in a vault at the Annapolis
Naval academy. The navy depart
ment was about TO recommend that
congressional action be taken to feim-
burse Gen. Porter, but he generously
and periodically declined to accept
such reimbursement, suggesting that.
instead, said amount be added to the
appropriation proposed for the finish
ing of the crypt at the chapel Of the
naval academy, where the remains OF
John Paul Jones are 10 be laid to final
rest
The unfinished condition Of this
crypt has been an eyesore TO the de-
partment and reflection on the pa
triotism OF the country AS yet 1t re-
mains in the rough, with exposed con-
crete and brickwork. Appropriations
heretofore made for the erection or
buildings al the naval academy were
not sufficient to cover the cost OF I'm
ishing the crypt, even il the money
could thus be diverted without special
sanction OF congress. A bill was or
| iginally introduced providing 100000
| for the work. but the architects report
| that it cannot be satisfactorily done
for less than $i35.000.
Adding to the originally proposed
appropriation of 100000 the amount
expended from the private purse OF
Gen. Porter. for which he declines re-
endorsement, but which he hopes will
be devoted TO the completion OF the
crypt, the sum OF $l35,000 would be
obtained, and the navy department
has recommended that such an appro-
priation be made. The committee on
naval affairs have now taken the
same view of the matter, and their
recommendation to that effect Is be-
| fore congress. The bill Is on the
house calendar, and an effort will be
made 10 reach it before adjournment.
