 Eugene Walters noted play, Paid in Full" was presented at the Jefferson theatre last night. beginning an engage ment of two nights and e matinee. "Paid in Full' belongs to the modern phase oi dramatic writing, an epoch of the sordid and the story is one of modern conditions in New York The plot might just as well have been laid elsewhere, but in New York the stress of living and the necessity of getting the wherewithal is considered to be more cruel and relent- less than elsewhere. The playwright chose a field in which material is abund- ant
 Paid in Full" is a gripping sort Of play and it is a play that paints in bold vigorous stroke picture that is no doubt quite true to lac, even if it is unpleas- ant to the last degree. It is hard to conceive of a man so degraded, so utter ly lacking in the essentials of manhood as to send his wife to the apartments of q libertne at a late hour of the night in the hope that she, by sacrificing her self if necessary, may save her husband from going to prison. Still, there are such men in the world and Mir Walter has drawn the type with striking success.

 DEEPER CHANNEL

Washington, February 7.--Mobile harbor in Alabama is threatened. according to the commercial interests there, with loss of importance as a shipping point unless @ deeper channel is secured soon.

Fairbanks Is Congratulated.

Rome, February 7.-The unhappy incl dent which marred the visit here of for mer Vice President Charles W. Fair banks has since been the cubjeet of animated discussion, especially among members of the American colony. MT Fairbanks had expressed 6 wish to pay his respects to the Pope and it had been announced that an audience would be granted the distinguished American. Subsequently 1t was learned he had promised to address the local assembly of the Methodist Episcopal church and following the re- ceipts of this information at the Vatican it was announced MT. Fairbanks would not be received by the pontiff unless his purpose to address the church society was abandoned. Mir. Fairbanks elected to keep his engagement with the Metho- dists.
 Today the protestants generally warm ly congratulated the former vice presi- dent upon what they termed his .digni- fled attitude in the matter. The Catho- lies on the other hand express regret at what was intended to be in the nature of an homage to the pontiff should have given rise to a cause for friction. Each party accuses the other of having as- stunned an irreconcilable attitude. The Catholics place the responsibility for the unpleasantness upon what they desoribe as the offensive Methodist propaganda being conducted in Rome.
 At the court ball tonight as a special honor, MT. Fairbanks and Mrs. Fair banks were admitted to the section re- served for the members of the diplomatic corps. Mrs. Fairbanks was invited to oc- cupy seat next to the queen, who en- gagged her in conversation for about an hour, a distinction which is seldom con- ferred except upon the wives of ambassa- dors. Meanwhile the king chatted with MT. Fairbanks.

Because MT. Fairbanks Would Not Cam eel His Engagement to Speak in His Own Church, He Receives
 Congratulations.

Washington, February 7.-Criticising the action of the Vatican for refusing former Vice President Fairbanks an audience with the Pope because he would not cancel his engagement 10 address the Methodist churchmen in Rome, the Ministerial association Of Washington adopted set of resolu- tions framed by 0 committee headed by Bishop Cranston of the Methodist Episcopal church, in which the acton of the Vatican authorities is described as characteristic expression of the real spirit of the Roman hierarchy"
 I've congratulate our former. vice president on his manly exhibition of the dignity of free American manhood in this most significant test in Rome." says one of the resolutions.
 Protest against recognition by the government of the Vatican is madc in strong terms described as incon- sistent with national traditions and "a sanction of ecclesia stical assumption outgrown by the world and a distinct menace to religious liberty
 Bishop Cranston sent the following cablegram to MT. Fairbanks

SHOOTS HER HUSBAND
And Then Takes Weapon to County Jail
 and Gives Herself Up

Following tilt with her husband, Al fred smith, yesterday afternoon, Emma Lou Smith causually pulled pistol, shot Der husband several times in the head and then, covered with blood and 'sthe smoking weapon" in her hand, she marched up Third avenue with equal composure and gave herself up to the warden of the county jail. The wounded negro was hurried to the Hlilmap hospital in Gaudin & Co.'S am- bulance. but he succumbed at 10.S0 o'clock last night. The cause of the shooting could not be determined. It took place about ? o'clock on Fourteenth street, be- tween Third and Fourth avenues.

"Superba."

An entertainment in many respects su- perior to others of its nature which are offered at triple the price of admission, is ''Superba," the weeks offering at the Bijou. Fred Hanlon, probably the clev- crest performer of his type ever appear ing in Birmingham, has tailored lit in the role of Pico, the authentic descen- dant of the first American clown. Miss Bess Rosa, an attractive and well-mod- eled 'Roxie," completes a perfectly we'll balanced cast. Some strenuous work, which deserves the stamp of approval, is offered by a good-looking chorus of nine, and the jutting corners of a wholly pleas ing presentation are rounded by stage tricks and illusions still in the prime of youth.
 To speak less press agently. one cannot regret having taken in "Superba." It is 8 show which for children and others will doubtless make itself delightful dur ing the remainder of the week, as it did for @ large audience last night. Be il said, much to the credit of the man agers, there is not a shady spot in the entire performance, a particular in which many musical shows and 'extrava- ganzas" are sadly deficient.
 Special mention is due NJ G. Douglass and Tom Mullens for an acrobatic spec ialty offered in the last act which from a purely physical standpoint was well up to the average. A military drill put on by the chorus and two excellent bits of scenic art in curtain naintinGs provide the finals of the closing act with a very pleasant taste.
 "Superba' is a creditable attraction.

D is a creditable attraction.
At the Orpheum-Vaudevilie.

Kathleen Clifford, headliner at the Or
 pheum this week. is one of the cleverest
 entertainers imaginable. and, assisted by Arthur Hill who takes the part of Theo-
 dore a dog, besides a company of 16 others, Miss Clifford offers genuine en- tertainment for the most critical lover of
 vaudeville. The act is notable for it's
 uniQueness and the costuming. Of the
 particular kind there is probably no act
 now travelling over any of the vaudeville
 circuits which exceeds it in merit. Mr.
 Hill, made up as a dog, is a real wonder
 and his performance last night amused
 the audience immensely. The act is
 characterized by good music and the
 chorus effects are fine. The number is an unusually commendable one, deserv- ing nothing but praise for it's elevated nature and artistic staging.
 Nerve one-act comedy, rendered by George Bloomquest and his company Is an entertaining skit with a rather un-
 usual theme The lines are full of humor, and MT. Bloomquest and Miss Ruby Thorpe are capable comedians. Earle D. Dwire and Thomas Broom, who have
 minor parts both did well last night. Charles and Paula Bmbo have a neat
 act in the way of acrobatic stunts and feats of equilibrium. They are pleasantly | remembered here, having appeared at the
 Majestic two seasons ago. Their act is devoid of the slightest offensive touch,
 and judging from the applause it re- ceived, the audience heartily approved it
 last night
 Lew Wells is probably one of the most
 unique monologists in vaudeville His
 makeup is that of tramp. but it is not
 exaggerated, and the relief is wonderful
 Mir. Wells monologue is clever and he is remarkable performer on the saxo- phone His eccentricities are numerous, but the variations executed on the in- strument are the feature of his act.
 The Fred Ray players have unique
 lesque entitled 'The Modest Roman of
 Them AL" All three members of the
 company are capable performers and the act was well receivedA@ast night.
 Ballerinfs "canine tumbers' are re- marlable dogs, and their stunts display wonderful animal intelligence. A fea- ture of this number of the bill is tine per- formance of a trained cat, and kitty is the most willing performer imaginable. The act is distinguished by the fact that the trainer gives no commando, and uses no whip, the little animals carrying off
