BRAVE STORM
FOR VAUDEVILLE
Big Crowds at Opera House
See Opening Of a New
Bill

When the public win brave a snow
storm like that Of last night to at
tend a theatre it is a pretty good in
dication that the theatre is offering
something which the public wants. Not
only did the public come out Of COM
Portable homes last night to go to
the Grand Opera House but it came
out in such numbers that il COM
pletely filled the place.
The bill which opened yesterday con-
tains the first really dramatic playlet
which has yet been offered There is
comedy running through the sketch but
the end is tragic and a considerable
portion Of the piece is serious. Mr..
and Mrs. Williams are the actors in
the playiet and its title is Her Other
Husband" II is a story with consid-
cradle heart interest as well as some
interesting comedy and gave general
satisfaction to the audiences yester-
day.
Patterson and Titus billed as &C.
centric dancers but who can sing and
crack jokes as well. made one of the
decided hits of the bill. The act is
neat and clever. They sing well and
the few songs they gave fitted in ex-
cellently with the act. They received
a number of encores and curtain calls.
Lillian Ward is one of the prettiest
and most dainty little condolences yet
booked for an Opera House bill. Miss
Ward has an excellent voice which is
at all times under almost perfect con-
/ troll whether she is singing a comic
song or a more pretentious musical
number. She does both equally we'll
and also wears some pretty costumes.
Harry Fields was present as expect
ed with some unusually samples OF
dexterity in handling various objects
for Fields is one of the very best Jug
glers who visits this city. He also
showed yesterday that he has lost none
of his ability in the comedy line.
Clemenso Brothers, the musical
clowns offer an act of genuine novelty.
Their pantomimic comedy is excellent
and they also offer some interesting
acrobatics but It is their musical work
which attracts most attention. They
play well upon a number of instru-
ments in sort of musical dinner in
which everything on the label, knives,
forks, wine glasses and even the chick
en-. become musical instruments.
Moving pictures with pleasing sub
jects completes the bill which appear
ed to give general satisfaction yes
terday and which was voted the big
gest thing ever offered at the price OF
admission.

Building Shortly

The purchase by Samuel Slesinger,
Of odd Fellows Hall, Third and King
streets. for $4,000 win be consumated
by the new odd Fellows Hall Com

The sale has necessitated peculiar
procedure. In the search Of the deeds
to the property shortly after the pur-
chase had been announced a flaw in

The sale TO Mr.. Slesinger was held nm
on that account.
1t was found that two ways were
open TO clear the title and affect the
sale: 70 go 10 the Legislature. which
would involve a delay of more thar

DOUBT COUNCILS
RIGHT TO DEED
Street and Sewer Department
President Raises Question
Regarding Reed Street

George W. Sparks, president of the
Street and Sewer Department, at last
nights meeting Of City Council ques-
toned the right OF Council to give a
deed to Reed street between Monroe
and Adams streets to the f. Blumen-
thai Company a matter which has
been before Council for several weeks,
brought up by the morocco company,
because of a defect in the title, the
bed of the street in question having
been deposed of to the concern for
81 900 several years ago.
Mr.. Sparks said that if Council did
have jurisdiction ~ the matter. the
question arose in his mind whether
this second conveyance asked by the
morocco company to clear the title,
would not result in the Street and
| Sewer Department and the Water De-
partment. losing the right to have ac-
Tcess TO the street to lay pipes. He
explained that in the original convey
ance. provided by an act of the Leg
isature, a reservation was made that
the two departments in question had
the right to enter the street at anytime
A second conveyance, he said, might
obliterate this privilege.
On motion of Mr.. Kane. Of thu
Fourth ward, it was decided to asl
the city solicitor to give an opinion
whether Council has the right to con
vey under the Legislature act anC
whether the city is protected i'm even
of a second conveyance, insofar as tn
street and Sewer and Water Depart
ments will retain the right to ente
the street in question.
A letter from Edwin L. Bradford, o
Washington, who is seeking to hav
building lines marked on Front stree
property was read and was ordere
filed. Mr.. Bradford stated that h
understood the matter of marking TN
lines on the property in question ha
been referred to the law committe
and the city solicitor and he asked tina
the matter be taken up and dispose

.BEVERIDGE OPPOSED TO
TARIFF IN PLATFORM
Senator's Friends to Fight State
Endorsement Mentioning
the Payne Law

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April Al
the friends of United States Senator
Albert J. Beveridge have their way in
the Republican convention which Will
name a state ticket here tomorrow, no
mention of the Payne-Aldrich tariff
law or of the county local option law
will be made in the platform.
AS Senator Beveridge voted against
the tariff measure his friends are de-
termined the convention shall not In
dorse it. While there is sentiment
among the delegates for an indorse-
ment of the tariff law, there was Il
disposition tonight on the part Of the
stand-pat Republicans to avoid
fight on the floor of the convention
against the report of the committee on
resolutions which undoubtedly Will
contain no mention of the measure.
There is a strong element demand
ing the local option law, which was
passed by the Republicans at a special
session Of the Legislature, be indorsed.
but 1t is the plan of the friends OF
Senator Beveridge who will undoubt-
edly be in control of the convention
to make no mention of it.
1t is expected former Governor D;
Frank Hanly, who called the special
session of the legislature that enacted
the option measure, will lead the hght
for an Endorsement of 1t.
