CLEVER JAPS
At GARRICK

The Kitamura Troupe of Royal Japs
offer Garrick patrons this week one
Of the classiest Oriental acts local
playgoers have yet seen. 1t opens
with a magnificent Oriental setting
with the company of a dozen or more
people seated in full view. The Japs
do all sorts of things, such as pole
balancing lightning feet manipulations,
athletic exercises and evolutions of
various kinds. They show careful
training and all the cleverness and in
telligence for. which the people Of their
country are famous. The Japs closed
the show at the Alhambra Theatre,
New York, last week, and scored one
of the hits of their career. Manager
Dockstader has not offered an act this
season possessing more real merit than
this production of Eitamura's Japs.
Nelson Downs, the coin king, is also
receiving much attention this week,
his manipulations being about the best
Wilmingtonians have ever seen. Downs
is known the country over as a verit-
able wonder with the coins and cards,
and he has enjoyed this reputation for
several years. These are only two
acts Of a mighty clever bill at the
Garrick this week.

SEES PERIL in
MORCAN'S PLANS
German Writer Regards Aims
Of American FinanCier as
Dangerous

BY United Press Leased Special Wire
BERLIN, Jan. 12.-Under the caption Of
''The Morgan PERIL" DIR. Leo Leipzeiger
one OF Germany's foremost writer's. pub
fishes in his own weekly. Roland Won
Berlin" to-day one Of the hercest attacks
ever made on the great American finan-
cier. Advance copies OF the article had
been given to the press.
Prom America, the land Of unlimited
financial swindles ana over speculation,
there arises a menace to the whole world.
including Germany, an appalling danger,
where TO attention must be called especial
" as none has hitherto dared 10 call
things by their right name," the article
says.
DR. Ieipseiger continues:
''This danger is ]. Pierpont Morgan. The
financial ambitions of this one man. who
strove TO control the entire capital Of
America constitute the most terrible dan
ger to the civilized world. His unscrupu-
lous love for riches. his fanatical craze
for power have made his financial edu-
cation outwardly imposing but its foun-
dations are rotten and its possible col
lapse, may ruin millions and destroy mill
llards in fortunes.
Ieipseiger reviews Morgan's different
concerns and suggests that his attempts
to form a copper trust may be the begin
ming Of a crash that will prove his undo
ing. Copper speculation is dangerous. he
contends and Morgan's entrance into this
field, may prove his petard.
'For us in Germany" Leipseiger con-
cluded, there should be only one watch
word and that is
Keep away from Morgan; away from
all concerns controlled by this greatest
adventurer in the history OF finance"
The participation Of AIorgan's banking
company In the Chinese railroad loan and
his recent reported attempt TO corner the
nitrate market are believed TO be the in
spiration Of Leifpseigers attack

AVENUE PLAY
A REAL TREAT

Merely Mary Ann" as played by the
Conness and Edwards players at the
Avenue Theatre this week, ranks. in
some particulars. as the best produc-
tion given by these popular artists this
season. In the first place many who
have attended the performance already,
believe it to be the best vehicle yet
furnished for Miss Pitt. Her delineation
of the innocent, pure hearted Mary
Ann is a splendid portrayal Mr. Mil
Ter is perfectly at home in the role of
Launcelot. He carries a sincerity into
his work which causes his part to stand
out in strong relief His appearance
is probably the best Of the season. Miss
Pitt and Mr. Miller furnish some de-
lightful comedy. All the other mem
bers Of the company are appropriately
cast.
The theatre was crowded last night
and the advance sale for the week is
large. The production of Mercy
Mary Ann" is a real treat.

Although local baseball enthusiasts,
particularly pete" Cassidy, who has
obtained financial support for a Tri-
state team for Wilmington should the
Trenton team be transferred here as
promised by George w. Heckert, are
yet hopeful that the city win get pro-
fessional ball this season, they were
Jared somewhat this morning by the
news from Trenton that Heckert had
actually obtained the team franchise
and is now dickering with Trenton
business interests to keep the team in
the New Jersey town.
Eugene Stirlith, one of the holders OF
the lease on South Side Park, how
ever, was not disposed 20 believe the
"vaporngs' from Trenton, as he de-
scribed the talk. Mr.. Stirlith said
he had an appointment with Heckert
here to-day and expects the Trenton
manager this afternoon to fulfil his
promise to sign a lease for South Side
Park and play the team here this year
Heckert, however, had not arrived al
noon.
Peter +. Cassidy, the baseball vet
eran, is inclined TO the belief that

NEW SHOW AT
OPERA HOUSE

Tomorrow afternoon an entirely new
bill Of vaudeville will open at the
Grand Opera House. 1t contains the
necessary comedy, variety and music
as well as other requisites which go
toward making an acceptable offer
ing.
Mr.. and Mrs Williams, with dra-
matte sketch, which is said to contain
not only more comedy, but also more
heart interest, than the average sketch
offered in vaudeville. will look after
the dramatic end Of the program. Both
are well-known actors in Baltimore.
where they appeared during the first
part of the week. They made a hit
at every performance. The sketch
lasts for just about the right period of
time to suit the average vaudeville
patron.
Harry Fields will also have a prom
inent place on the program. Fields is
not only juggler of skill and dexterity
but he has a number of funny moves
which makes his work the more inter-
esting. He is a comedian as we'll as
a juggler He is well-known to many
people here and they know his skill.
Patterson and Titus are counted
dIlunB lnc very ltHl ttttnAlAC OdAlSNAo
known TO polite vaudeville. Their
| dancing is of tine eccentric variety.
They have scored heavily in every city
in which they have appeared and they
have appeared in most Of the import
ant ones.
Lillian Ward is a clever comedienne,
who is making a hit wherever she
appears. She has a charming per-
sonality. She is another of the bill
who has made n decidedly favorable
impression in Baltimore the first half
Of this week, and there is no doubt
about her repeating her triumph in
Wilmington.
ClemensO Brothers are musical
clowns and the title gives an idea of
the character of the act. These ac-
complished brothers in addition to Of
fering some delightful pantomimiC
comedy the kind which makes a real
clown, also offer a number of decidedly
well-played and tuneful musical selec-
tions.
There will be new moving pictures
| especially selected to fit the bill and
| become an attractive and component
part Of 1t. The Opera House man
agement is confident that this bill has
never been equalled in any city at the
price charged at the Opera House.

Is to q cents for each assessment 1t de-
pends on the distance the assessor has to
travel
The capltatlon tax IS 25 cents each. Az
ter the assessment IS made there is no
other expenses. In Wilmington three
fourths Is q dead loss. In tho county
where the assessor Is paid and nothing
collected the cost is a whole loss. In VIII
mlngton outside Of that from property
holders. only "a or s. Is collected In VIII
mington some years ago the collectors re-
ceived 81 900 and I'm four years collected

Carnivorous animals are liable to a
curious mania for self-mutilauon, and
Herr Carl Hagenbeck. the well-known
collector of animals, gives some in
stances IN his new book, Beasts and

spotted hyenas which "all OF sudden
broke forth with loud yells and liter

great pieces out Of their own bodies
So quickly and so unexpectedly did
this happen that there was no time
to do anything to save them, and in
each case the wounds inflicted were
so shocking that the animals soon ex.

who "ate their own tails as far as
they could reach. and as a result so
much blood was lost that they both
had to be killed"
