Flies Into Rage and Tells of Spending $1,OOO In Night on Wine and Married
 Dancer<

Chicago, March 13.-With bursts of anger and desperate attempts to con- trol his emotion, M c. Mann, accused of the murder of Frances G. Thompson, and curiously suggestive of Harry K. Thaw, today was on the witness stand in his own behalf
 Under the scathing questioning of Assistant States Attorney Day his for titude gave way. The witness lost con- trol of himself when the prosecutor asked him if. while travelling for a clothing firm in Kansas. he had not sold his samples and If his father had not been compelled to square the matt ter.
 Be a gentleman. don't be a rat" shouted the witness.
 Do you think Fanny Thompson was a rat when you bound her with a rope. when you gagged her, and then choked her to death?"
 T did not do it; did not do it, cried Mann in rage.
 Asked where he had met Maud Shanks who afterwards became his wife, Mann replied:
 At Britt, Iowa. She was doing a dance in feshlings with a theatrical company, and getting SIP week for doing it. I used her as a cloak model, to show off my samples. Later she came to Chicago, and we were mar ried."
 Court adjourned until Monday morning. after Mann had told more of his exploits in the gay life. He continued to break into spasms ot rage at his pitiless cross examiner. Once he stepped from the stand to gel drink of water.
 Don't lose your temper so brother, admonished his sister Jester. "Youl life Is in the balance"

Fort Worth, Texas. March 13.-Fred Morris, a baseball player, tonight shot and instantly killed Otto H. Meyer. a vaudeville singer, in room at local hotel, after having secured a written confession that Meyers relations with Mrs. Morris were improper.
 The two men came to the hotel to- gether and were assigned to the same room After he and Meyer had se- cured the room. Morris declared he read an discriminating letter, the signifi- canoe of which Meyer admitted. He then forced Meyer to write and sign the confession and then told him that he intended to kill him.
 Meyer extended his arms" said Nor ris "and told me to shoot him through the heart so that all would be over at once I did as he suggested and would follow him beyond the grave except for the fact that I have little boy who I think needs me to look out for him.

BIG FIGHT ON / IN CONGRESS Democrats Urged to Be
 Present. CLAYTON AND DENT ON WAY Republican Insurgents May Aid in Defeat of Speaker Cannon. Minority Leader Champ Clark has Sent Out an Urgent Appeal to All
 Democrats to Take a Hand
 In The Fight.

In response to a message from Con- gressman Champ Clarke. Democratic Leader of the House of Representatives, which read something like this "Come quick. There's something doing," each of the nine Alabama Congressman are hurryins to Washington, to take part in the organization of the Special Ses- sion of Congress, which begins Mon- day.
 Hon. H. D. Clayton. Representative from the Third Alabam District and Hon. S. H. Dent, Representative from the Second Alabama, left late yester- day evening for Washington. Both were anxious to get to Washington and take part in the fight, over the organization.
 Minority Leader Clark. has written each member of the Alabama delega- tion in a personal letter in which he says, Affairs are in the most chaotic condition I ever saw. Anything Is likely to happen. Be sure to be in your seat Monday
 This of course refers to the fight made against Speaker Joseph Cannon by certain "insurgent Republican members of Congress. They have op- posed the present arbitrary rules of the House and some of them have opposed the election of Speaker Can non. They claim that there are twen- ty-six members, who are Republicans who will act with the Democrats In opposition to the Republicans and with the Democrats. If there are so many Republicans, fighting Cannon to the last ditch, the insurgents and the Dem ocrats can control the House and this Is what depends upon the fight Mon day In the House.
 But the Alabama Democrats are not especially sanguine, Mrs. Dent, Clay ton and the others will be there ready to vote with Leader Clark and other Democrats to whip out Cannon and his Rules Committee. If they get twenty six Republicans to act With them. they will whip the fight. But the Alabama Democrats are nightly afraid that the Insurgents" notwithstanding their bold talk will get cold feet when the hour for the fight comes. They expect that probably half of the insurgents will continue to fight but half of them Is not enough to make the fight. But the Democrats will haxe hand in whatever fight comes off.
 Representative Clayton. whose home Is in Eufaula, has been a member of Congress since 1896, and is therefore one of the oldest Democrats in the House. Representative Dent will for the first time take his seat Monday at noon. He was elected last year and he will succeed Former Congressman O. c. Wiley. who served from December until March.

hfa NuzhmOva dt tne Granu. What an actress! What wide range of ability! What a Countess Coquette!
 After seeing Madame Ala Nazimova as 1bsen's emotional doll wife. one could hardly be prepared to find the same actress in an entirely different role the following night. a role di' rectly opposed to Nora. But 1t was 8 role that larger audience appre- ciated more fully than Ibsens char, actor development and the actres. must have felt the sympathy on the part of this audience, for she played that could hardly have been simulat- ed had the audience been cold and re. served.
 In the role of Nora" played the night previous, Madame Nazimovs portrayed the development of the high hearted girl wife to a fully awakened woman. Last night she played the awakened woman from the rise of the curtain to the final drop. she was in truth a comtesse coquette.
 It Is an impossibility to compare the two roles. For the same reason 1t Is an utter impossibility to compare the acting of the one night with that of the next. There is too radical a differ ence in both. And yet there Is a point of similarity in the acting-Montgom cry saw an actress of the highest de- velOpment upon both occasions
 Difficult in the extreme to grasp the full effect of the story without having vivid mental impression gained through a personal knowledge of the play itself. few paragraphs giving a mere outline of the plot would be as valueless to those who did not witness the performance as 1t would be lonesome to those who did. More perhaps, was told by the silenccs on the stage. and by Madame Nazi- mova's expressions, than by the nc tual words of the scene. One must see the actress on the stage in order to know the problems which faced the wife in her endeavors to gain her husbands love.
