ACTOR SUED FOR
The L|BRETTO OF
LONESOME TOWN.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. &c.
William Kolb, of the defunct fun
factory of Kolb and Dill, is the de-
fendant to a suit instituted in the
superior court yesterday by Martha
A. Brusie, widow of Judson G.
Brusie.
Brusie wrote the libretto of
Lonesome Town." with which
Kolb and Dill convulsed local the
ater goers in the good old days,
and it appears from the complaint
that he delivered the manuscript to
Kolb las his agent" and entered
into an agreement whereby he was
to get 3 per cent of the gross re-
ceipts of it's production as roy
atty. Brusie died June TO- 1908,
leaving no estate, save the libretto
of the play mentioned. Mrs. Brusie
says that no royalties were ever
paid after his death, and that Kolt
has refused to return the manu-
script to her.
The immediate cause of the filing
of the suit was Kolb's announce
ment of his intention to start fol
New York September Is. Mrs
Brusie had no idea of letting him
go with Lonesome Town" in hi'

atSestraining order from Judge Sea
wyl which will keep the librett'

action has been tried. The plain
tiffs prayer is for the recovery o
the manuscript, for any back royal
ties that may be due and for gen
eral damages.

FOUR STORY FALL

Frank Archer, laborer who lives
at 3427 Nineteenth street, San Fran
cisco, performed an acrobatic feat
that would have filed with envy
circus performer when he fell
four stories down wide elevatog
shaft at the Y. M. c.. A. building,
Leavenworth street and Golden
Gate avenue, and calmly walked
away without even a limp to show
the experience was unusual to him.
Archer was working on the
fourth floor when he lost his bal
ance and fell backward down the
shaft. Other men near by wit
messed the accident, and there was
yell of horror and rush to the
basement to aid the supposed ia
tally injured man. Archer whirled
over number of times and alighted
on his feet, and then fell full
length on the ground.
Before anyone could reach him
the man arose and began to inves-
tigate for possible injuries. Find
ing none, with the exception OF a
slight abrasion on the chin, he
carefully flieked the dust from his
clothes and walked away, declining
the aid of physician who arrived
on the scene, having learned of the
accident while passing in an auto
mobile.
Archer is the second man within
a week to fall four stories and
escape without injury.

FIRE
IN BLIZZARD
LAST NIGHT
Gary Firemen Battle With
Confiagration During the
Storm and Have Tempest
Gus Night Before Work Is
Completed.

Two fires OF a disastrous nature &C.
Cured last night and early this morn
ing in Gary, the result being that both
departments were called out in the
blizzard to fight the flames. and with
the piercing cold wind the task was
anything but pleasant one.
Shortly after IL o'clock last night
an alarm was sent in calling the de-
partment to Twenty sixth avenue and
Broadway, where the two-story frame
building, used for saloon purposes. was
on fire.
The department made a record
breaking run. considering the icy
streets, but by the time the depart
ment arrived and were ready to go to
work the flames had gotten a good
start It was necessary to stretch two
lines of hose from Twenty fourth ave-
nue. in order to reach the scene of the
fire., and after a hard fight the blaze
was extinguished.
Mr.. Mathies is of the opinion that
the fire started from coal falling from
the kitchen stove. The rear end OF
the building was badly damaged and
the loss will range from $500 to $500.
1t was just about 5 o'clock this
morning, and the fire laddies had re-
turned from the first fire, that sec
ond call was sent in from Tolleston
saying that the home of Fred Waldron
was on fire. Mr.. Waldron lives on Bor-
man boulevard, In the west part of the
town, and 1T was a long run for the
department.
Mr.. Waldron claims that he and his
family have not occupied the house for
the past three days and he is at loss
to know the cause of the fire. The
house and furniture, which were total
ly destroyed. are valued at $4,000. OF
which $4,000 was covered by insur-
ance.
The residence was a mass of flames
by the time the fire department got
there, and with the high wind it was
impossible to save the building. An
other residence near Mr.. Waldron S
was in great danger of being burned
- it was through the hard work OF
the department that it was saved
Chief Feeley will begin an investi
cation as to the cause of the Waldrol
fire today. Mr.. Waldron claims tina
there has been no fire in his house 70
the past three days. and how the fir
originated isas much a mystery to hir
as anyone else.
