Regulars Refuse to Vote.

Then came the final vote on tho
House cotton bill. Only the Democrats
voted for It. but as the roll-call pro-
Eressed II became apparent that Re
publicans were sitting in the cham
Der and not voting or were stepping
back into the cloak rooms before their
names were called.
AS the first roll-call was concluded
those who had kept track OF the vote
realized that the Democratic cotton bill
had received a favorable vote of 90
to 10. Senator Cummins was on his
feet before announcement could be
made. He demanded that the rule of
the Senate compelling members to vote
or to give their reasons for not voting
he enforced
This rule is plain" said vice-Presi-
dent Sherman. ~ 1t is invoked 1t Is
the duty OF the chair 10 enforce 1t.
The clerk will call TIE names of those
who did not answer"
There was sudden exodus of Re-
publcans from the chamber. Senator
Briggs, of New Jersey. had been in
the chamber. but did not answer when
his name was called.
THE Senator was here a moment
ago" declared Senator La Toilette.
He is in the cloak room now, and
suggest a message be sent to him 20

Senator Curtis, of Kansas. who an
nounced that he was paired with an
absent Senator and couldnot vote, was
forced 10 submit his case to the Senate
on roll call before he was permitted
! to observe the pair.
- "Not visIbIe to Chair"
When on roll call the clerk reached
the name of Senator Guggenheim there
was no response. Senator Bristow de-
clared the Senator from Colorado had
just left the chamber. The Vice-Presi
dent held that the Senator was no,
visible to the chair"

THE Family" Henry Miler's sue

Robert II. Davis, which comes direct
from long and successful engagements
at the Comedy Theatre in New York
the Powers Theatre In Chicago. and
the Globe Theatre in Boston, to the
Coliseum on Thursday Dec IS, is said
to be one of the greatest plays that
ever has been written around the
theme of the domestic relationship.
The story of the play is very slm-
ply told, bat offers many opportuni
ties for rich laughter and powerful
situations. the daughter of an Aineri-
can family living in a small town. alb
solutely ignorant of life. falls in love
with the drum major of Il travelling
minstrel show and elopes with him.
The girls mother discovers that there
has been no marriage and without
seeking the aid of either her husband
or her son takes the matter into her
own hands. =
The play is one of the most re-
markable tributes to the American
mother ever written, and sounds an
new note in the drama of
this country. The east that will pre-
sent the play here Is quite a novel as
we'll as a capable one. The manage
ment and the author have insisted that
each and every member of the COM
pany have a marked facial resem-
bfance to each other. as we'll as the
marked characteristics that one sees
SO much in any particular American
family. Ii is said that the members
of the company are unusually alike in
their personal resemblance with the
exception of the minstrel man. the
stranger who causes the disruption in
the family.
