the government by cutting timber on
public lands and selling it in the
market. He had successfully defied

but one day little Petrie went after

INTRODUCES SUBSIDY BILL.
SENATOR csIiIneer Offers Measure AZ.
ter Consulting Taft.

n WASHINGTON, Jan. 1O.-A new
ocean mail bill, commonly known as
ship subsidy. drawn up as a result
Of conferences between President Taft
md Senator Gallinger. (Rep., NH,
and others, was introduced today by
Callinger as a substitute for his sub.
fidy bill now pending in the senate.
The bill stands next to the Lorimer
case. which is first in the senate's or.
der OF business.
The new bill eliminates trans-Pa-
'cific lines and applies only TO the es-
tAblishment Of ocean mail service on
routes to South America. south of the
equator-that Is, to Brazil, Uruguay,
Argentine, Chill and Peru.
The bill forbids the award OF any
c0ntract for an ocean mail line to any
bidder engaged In competitive trans
portation By rail.

Der OF pretentious musical acts to the
Temple, and was here himself few
weeks ago at the head of "TheRol-
fonians," arranged The Courtiers,
and he deserved the applause that
greeted the stage setting and the
subsequent excellent work OF the
company OF ten young men and wo-
men. They sing and dance and play
in the quaint style OF long ago, gradu-
ally bringing their musical efforts up
10 the minute with some charmingly
Orchestrated popular hits. The In
dividual musical ability OF the little
company is far above the average,
and their concerted work as spirited
and sympathetic as might be expect
ed from well-trained, good musicians.
James Young, who will be remem-
bered by Temple audiences for clev-
er farce offerings, in the past, comes
forward this week with a sheet from

daughter and the loss of his jewels

Marc Antonys oration over Caesars

ed most successful in the character

TO his act. Mr.. Young stated that he
believed his offering would meet with
responsive appreciation in view OF
the fact that in almost every college

plays, from which his bits are taken
were being studied and, therefore,
the excerpts chosen would be more or
less familiar TO the majority in the
audience.
