AMATEUR NIGHT AND
 MEN FURNISH BILL

No more mixed casts at the Royal on Amateur nights. This typo graphical gauntlet had been thrown down to the Royal management by the male amateurs. The young men charge that when they appear on the stage at the Royal with girls, that there is no show to win, so suscepti- ble are the judges to the smiles and wiles of the girl amateurs.
 The Royal management is going to give the male talent a hearing to- night. the weekly amateur night at that theater. TneFe will be no broil- CTS and no squabs. The management will stage tHe best of the local male talent and give thsm a show to win the prize Of five dollars, awarded bS the judges to the best hit" In the vaudeville list tonight will be black lace comedians. coDtOrtionists, dia- logues, monologues, etc, but, remem- Der, no girls with curls to set the judges minds in whirls.
 In addition to the amateur vaude- vile stunts thu regular moving pie ture program will be given. At an early date an amateur night will be turned over to the girls, and then the judges will be up against it.

OPERATION IS NECESSARY

BOSTON. Mass. Dec. 2O.-Cries and groans, breaking the stiffness of the early morning hours of the Charles street jail today. led to the discovery that Rev. Clarence V. T. Richeson, awaiting trial on charge of having murdered Miss Avis Linnell. had mu. tilated himself severely with a piece of tin. So serious was the wound that 1t was found necessary to per form an operation immediately. Lat. CT in the day physicians said the op- eration was entirely successful. and unless blood poisoning developed the prisoner would probably recover in two weeks.
 County authorities. jail officials and counsel for Richeson refused to com ment on the possible mental processes that led the accused man to injure himself. or what influence the act might have on the future legal pro ceedings in his cass: District Attor ney Petteter, who will have charge of Richeson's trial. set for January 15, asserted that the trial would be. gin on the date assigned. This is corrobOrated by DT. Howard Lathrop, bht NA AAC SUI SEbA5 W uO ulLtl1utb the prisoner.
 Although Richeson's counsel gave no intimatiOn as to whether the de fense will seek a postponement or take any action because of Richeson's s act, they did say the clergyman had Injured himself in an attempt at emasculation.
 It was about four am. when the jail attendants heard Richeson crying Dear Oh, dear. dear The attend, ants summoned two others, and found the prisoner lying on the floor bleed ing and suffering intense pain. The prison doctor said an immediate op eration was necessary. and three sur geons were sent for When Richeson came from under the anaesthetic he had nothing to say. By order of the surgeons. he was not questioned by anyone. and will be kept quiet until he regains strength.

 Tang Shao Yi expressed his bleiet that the situation might have been saved at one time by a conference with revolutionary leaders and prompt assurance of adjustment ot wrongs. He also was convinced there must be no foreign interference in the way of loans or otherwise.
 Practically the whole session of the conference between the delegates oi the imperial government and reyolu tionists today was devoted to Wu Ting Fang's speech in favor of a republic Tang ShaO Vi, whose powers are clearly limited. expressed his readi ness to accept Wu Ting Fangs views but declared the ma<ter so important that he must first communicate with Picking and suggested the settlemen; be left to the national assembly buj made no counter propositions. Thus neither side presented a well defined scheme and the conference again ad journed indefinitely.
