Majestic.


The pretty little Majestic theater be-
with a bill that the booking agent
assures the management is high class
in every respect. To give this city
a line of vaudeville that cannot be ex-
celled, Managers George & Son have
given an open order to headquarters
that means only the best and most
competent artists in their respective
lines. Accordingly, the bill for the
coming week. like the one just closed,
will be strictly clean and of the first
water.
The first week with the Majestic was
a success, and the little playhouse is
being talked about. Overflow houses
have been in attendance almost every
evening, and the matinees have proven
successful
The Majestic did not contemplate
change of bill until Monday, but at
the last moment headquarters demand
ed that Walla Walla accede to circuit
demands. This resulted in two acts
being taken from this circuit today,
and two of mex. weeks acts replace
ing them. Palmer and Robinson in a
wonderfully funny sketch, THE Maid
and the Mountebank," cannot reach
here until tomorrow, making up the

SAVED BY HIS GREAT NERVE
IT WAS COLOSSAL EVEN IF HIS
STATURE WAS NOT.
Five-Footer Tries to "Touch" a SIX
Foot Policeman for Dime and
Fights When Refused.

| NEW YORK, April 10-"Far be i.
from me to curb such nerve as that

| istrate Breen recently in the West
Side police court as he discharged a
five-foot man who had attempted to
hold up a six-foot policeman for a
dime.

six footer, seemed to think it was a
just judge who had so ruled; and
Hubert Woods, thirty nine years old,
no home-the ve-footer-remarked
before walking out of court, 4" don't

so long as I didn't get the dime.'
1t was 5~O'clock in the morning when
the courage of the ordinary man is at
low ebb-that Herbert reached that
sublime height of nerve that a magis-
trate could not aspire to. 1t was at
Broadway and Forty sixth street
Patrolman Cavanaugh was waiting
for his relief, congratulating himself
that nothing had happened which
would require him to spend his day
off in court, and watching the wait
ers in a nearby cafe looking for lost
jeweled garters under the tables after
the evening trade. Suddenly he was
aroused by Hubert Woods
Give me a dime, quick! I want a
pint. 1 have thirst"
"'Runa along" said Cavanaugh, re-
membering his day off.
ga dime or fight replied Hubert
The policeman wasn't interested He
turned away for another look in the
cafe, and then Hubert stood on tiptoe
and hit him in the eye. Cavanaugh
dropped from shock of surprise and
Hubert was caught under the descend
ing mass and borne to the sidewalk

PREVENT ESCAPE OF
FEDERAL PRISONER
Convict Was Found Hiding in Locker,
Dressed in Woman's Garb-Was
Waiting to Leave Island
with Guests

SAN FRANCISCO, April ga novel
attempt to escape from the military
prison has just been reported at Alca-
traz, small island in San Francisco
bay.
The island is devoted entirely to the
Incarceration of army convicts, and as
life is irksome for the members of the
guard occasional dances are given to
which the bellies of cities bordering on
the bay are invited.
Tuesday night one of these affairs
was in progress, when the alarm was
sounded, indicating that a prisoner was
missing.
Deserving their fair partners. the
guards searched the prison buildings
and the rocky shores of the island for
an hour before they located the fugi-
tive.
He was found hidden in locker,
dressed from head to foot in woman
garb. The toilet was complete, even ia
a large hat of the latest style. The
prisoner, Henry Gallagher, who is serv-
ing two and a half years for desertion,
had been noticed sitting among the
wall flowers" in secluded corner
earlier in the evening.
How Gallagher obtained his female
attire is mystery to the guard. 1t is
supposed his plan of escape included a
quiet evening in the ball room and a
trip to liberty on one of the launches
that were to carry the women back to
the city.

STATEHOOD BILL TO
BE RElNTRODUCED

WASHINGTON, April 23.-Those who
endeavored to obtain statehood for
Arizona and New Mexico during the
last session of congress, and whose Ell
forts failed in the senate, are not re-
Taxing their efforts, preparatory TO
presenting the subject to the regular
session of congress next fall.
Representative Hamilton of Michi-
gan, who probably will be chairman or
the territories, is having the interior
department gather data which will aid
in perfecting the land grant clauses OF
the statehood bill, which passed the
house at the last session.
Mr.. Hamilton desires to overcome
the objections that were made to these
features and will reintroduce his bill
at the opening of congress in Decem-
Der, with such changes as he believes
will meet general approval.
The advocates of statehood have re-
ceived the assurances of President Taft
that he will do all in his power to aid
in the early passage of statehood
bill.
