AT THE THEATERS.

1t is not surprising that consider
able curiosity should already have
been aroused by the announcement
that THE Niger" Edward Sheldon's
race problem play of the South, is.
to be seen here for four days COM
mencing Sunday, Nov. 6, with spe-
cial matinee on election day.
1t is probable that here, as else
where, it will be one of the most
discussed plays of the year. When
the play was originally produced at
the New Theater, in New York, it
made a sensation, and the New York
Sun declared that it was the New
Theater's "first real success" This
Judgment was confirmed when the
play was tried out" during the
spring tour Of the New Theater com
pany, and proved to be the most
profitable play of the repertoire.
It was on the strength of this sue
cess that VIM. A. Brady determined
to arrange tour Of the United States
and Canada, and give 1.-The Niger"
wider hearing than was possible
with the New Theater company. The
results have justified the acumen of
this far-sighted manager.
1.-THE Niger" has been one of the
few big dramatic successes of the
year. And this is not surprising to
, those who have seen the play and
realize it's tremendous dramatic pow
err. 1t is a strong play, and at the
same time an intensely human one.
Philip Morrow, young southerner,
has been elected governor of his state.
I~4 - AS>$,, nd
when he is shortly to wed the girl of
his choice, he learns that he has
negro blood in his veins This meant
social ostracism. 1t meant giving up
his ambitions, resigning his Office
relinquishing his sweetheart-truly a
terrific situation for refined and
educated man, hitherto proud Of be-
ing white man. The play tells how
Morrow met this situation, and, in
doing so, gives occasion for some of
the most thrillingly- dramatic situa-
/; tons ever seen upon the stage. Guy
Bates Post, who created the role of
| Morrow, will be seen in his original
character, with Miss Florence Rock
| we'll and an excellent company Of
actors.
"The Golden Girl" written by that
inv1ncible trio, Adams, Hough and
Howard, and produced by Mort Sing
er last season, has taken to the road

! weeks.
1.-The Chocolate Soldier" in which
| E. c.. Whitney is said to have reached
| an enviable mark as a producer of
true comic opera, is booked to appear
here soon.

UNION MADE.

Figure this out and see if it isn't
good common sense. The wooden
manufacturer gets a profit on the
goods he sells to the wholesaler
The wholesaler certainly gets his,
when he sells to the tailor, and the
tailor pays a bigger profit than
the wholesaler because he only
buys single suit patterns. You,
Mr.. Consumer, pay the biggest
profit Of the whole shootin' match
Maybe you don't think so, but it's
a fact. Think it over.
Since we. secure our wooens direct
from the mills, thousands of yards at a
clip, for our big chain of stores, we are
therefore able to eliminate the prof, S

Indianapolis. Sept. 29.-Alexander
G. Cavins. assistant to Attorney Cen
eral James Bingham, the man who has
made a record in the Indiana legisla-
ture by his advocacy of women suf-
frage took a view of the Beveridge
keynote meeting which no one else
thought of.
Il was forcibly impressed with the
number of women present" said he.
"The meeting was unusual for the in
terest which women took in it and
II you want my candid opinion I know
of no better sign of progress than for
the feminine sex to be concerning
itself with politics. If women could
vote they would clean things up in a
hurry. And II they become interested
it will do much toward shaking of the
lethargy Of the male voters.
"The shake up which Chairman
John Duncan gave voters for their ig-
norance of the candidates inspires a
suggestion. Now would be a good
time to pledge all legislative candi-
dates to the short ballot and the com.
mission form of city government with
the privilege Of recalling the commits
sioners. With fewer candidates vot-
ers can know whom they are voting
for. This means a concentration of
responsibility SO the people can go
directly to the men in charge and hold
them to good government"
Edward NJ. White. assistant to the
attorney general, although a standpat-
ter. said the keynote speech was char.
acteristic of Senator Beveridge, and
consequently was forceful, earnest
and convincing.

appear against her sweetheart, who
attempted to shoot her father, pretty
1S-year old Florence Palermo ended
her life early today by jumping from

for weeks until the. quarrel which re-
suited in the shooting.
The elder Paterno had developed a
sudden dislike to Donate after learn
ing that the young man was a boon
fcompanion to some of his (Paterno's)
enemies. He saw that his daughter
was growing fond of the young man
and when she told him that they had
plighted their troth he flew into a
rage and ordered Donate from the
house.
Paterno could not be moved He
told his wife he was inclined to give
in to his daughters pleading, but
when the mother hurried from her
bedroom to break the good news to
the girl she was already on the roof
preparing to jump.
Policeman Barry started for the Pa
terno home and was almost at the
doorsteps in front of the house when
he heard a cry overhead. He looked
up in time to see body hurl through
the air and drop almost at his feet.
When he turned the body over he
saw it was the young girl he had in

DISPLAY AT HIPPODROME

Decorating the city building for the
Fall Festival will begin at once, and
the officials will try for the first ex.
terror building decoration prize. Two
plans of decoration were submitted
one by the engineering department
and the other by Fire Chief Ed Miller
and the latter was adopted because it
will be cheaper and easier to con.
struct. The engineering department
plan, designed by Everett Davis, as.
sistant engineer, is very elaborate and
expensive, and it will be used as the
entrance to the hippodrome grounds.
There will be a large arch in front
of the city building and electric lights
will be prominent for the night dis
play. Probably one arc light will be
used at the top of the arch work. The
firemen will do the work, but Mayor
Zimmerman told Chief Miller to EN-.
ploy corps OF carpenters if neces.
sary.
Last year the city building won first
premium on exterior decorations and
the mayor says they will have to do sc
again. However, last year a months
time was required to construct the
decorations and no expense or work
was spared. The cost this year will
be between $50 and $125.
