LOTS OF FUN
AT PR0CTORS
Humorous Sketches Present
ed that Make Up Excel
lent Program.
GOOD SELECTIONS

If ever anyone handed out" a
line of slang, it is certainly done at
Proctor's theatre for the first part
of this week in the person of Pete
Lawrence, of the Lawrence trio.
His vernacular would make a Bow
cry sport" blush with shame and a
race track hanger-on green with
envy. But as there were representa-
tives of neither class in last nights
audience, there were no bushes of
shame or shades of envy-just
laughs and plenty Of them.
Lawrence has a good act and car
ries his role we'll. Assisting him is
a youth, a college chum to whom a
breach of grammar Is a crime and
who is astounded at the dialect en-
ployed by Lawrence before his young
girl cousin. The act closes with a
song and dance.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sol Aiken appear in
a farce comedy, Mamie Clancy"
Yesterday was the first appearance
on any stage of the act, and al
though young it took well. Mamie
Clancy Is a washwoman seeking en-
ployment and is, through q chance,
directed to a theatrical booking
office. The agent there believes the
woman's appearance is but a dis
guise as he was expecting a visitor
who had been heralded as a charm
ing soubrette, so he gives her q
chance, but
Hawthorne and Burt brought
forth many laughs last night in their
impersonation of a recruiting officer
and a Hebrew applicant. Mario and
T%revette rendered several selections
as the italian tenor and the French
soubrette.

BY MINORITY
Ball niger Committee Unable
to Get Quorum TO Do the
White Washing.
MAJORITY is READY

Chicago, Sept. 1~3.-Although . the
scene Of the Pinchot-B alinger eontro-
yersy shifted to Chicago today, 1t does
not seem probable that anything inter-
esting will happen. The members of
the Balllnger majority of the commit
tee are here ready to act, but rs the
Pinchot minority members are no.
where to be seen, there Is no quorum.
The Democratic members of the
committee and Congressman Il. Fl.
Madison of Kansas, who declared that
they would not follow Senator Knute
Nelson, chairman Of the committee, to
Chicago, have apparently kept their
word. b
When Senator Nelson adjourned the
Minneapolis meeting, while the minor
fty was trying to force through the
resolutions condemning Secretary Bal
linger, he announced that the commit
tee would meet here today.
So far as can at present be learned,
the lack Of a quorum, which prevented
action In Minneapolis, will also pre-
vent anything being done here.
II see no likelihood for a quorum
here" said Senator Sutherland of
Utah. I'VE have not discussed our
findings yet. I suppose we will have
a conference and determine what we
shall DO. The action of the five menu
bers at Minneapolis still leaves US 4
quorum of seven members Of the COM
mittee, and it Is probable that we Will
ultimately have a meeting OF the
seven"

On cross-examination he said he
did not know the Warden woman He
had never seen her. The Interpreter
was not translating quite correctly,
according to the lawyer for the de-
Tense and he tried to help him, but
the court stopped him, declaring that

the lawyer was not, and 1t was not
right for the attorney to use this
a of getting things before the
jury. Prosecutor Booraem said the
interpreter had always translated
correctly in other cases where he
had been used. Lawyer D'Aloia
thought in this Ease he did not quite
understand the dialect that the de-
PENDANT spoke and this led to his
erring.
The defendant declared he had
only fired once. The testimony for
the defense was that there were two
empty shells found.

JOHN ". GRICCS MAY
PRESIDE AT CONVENTION

Trenton, Sept. 13:-The old-time
m was abroad in the state house
yesterday when it became known
that Governor Fort had summoned
State Banking and Insurance Com
missioner Vivian M. Lewis, former
State Assessor David Baird State
Comptroller Henry J.. West, State
Treasurer Daniel S.. Voorhees, and
Board of Equalization of Taxes Com
missioner Bloomfield s.. Minch, to a
conference on who would be the
chairman of the gubernatorial con-
vention next Tuesday. 1t was stated
in the corridors that the governor
would ask the c~onferees for the
place of honor, but when they broke
up every one positively denied the
rumor, saying that the coming plat
form was all that was talkes scout.
Out in the corridors the word
passed around that the governor In
tended asking for the honor, but at
the last moment did not do so. There
was not the slightest ground for such
a rumor. The convention will select
its own chairman and 1t has not been
the custom to select the governor of
the state for that honor. 1t was in
tfmated in one high quarter that the
chairman would likely be former
Governor John w. Griggs, but there
was no way of verifying this.
1t is certain that the coming plat
form will endorse the administration
of Governor Fort and lay stress on
things progressive done and things
to be done in the future. Still, until
the committee on resolutions gets
through with the document, no one
knows just what it will contain.
Besides holding important confer
ences, the governor did no public
business of news value. He came up
frem Spring Lake with Adjutant
General Wilbur F. Sadler, Jr., in
General Sadler's automobile, and re-
exaed home that way late in the .af-
teraoon. He will not name more
factory inspectors until next week.
