HAM TREE HEROES
 PROVE A SCREAM
Jack and Violet Kelley Give Novel Exhibition With Aus tralian Stock Whips = The District Attorney

What has been said in the advance notices of the laughter provoking power of Mcintyre and Heath has not been exaggerated, as was discovered by a large audience last night at Polls, who saw these heroes of the Ham Tree perform for 45 minutes in ''The Georgia Minstrels." Scarcely a joke had ever been heard before by anybody in the house, and the dialect was surpassing. The jests surround ed the favorite Elhopian theme of food, and it was all there but the chicken. The ancient conversation about this fowl was missing. But appetite must have been restored to many, and digestion too, if laughter provokes it.
 The Venetian Four. presenting "A Night in Venice, turned out to be accomplished musicians. Upon harp and violin they rendered series of selections of the highest character. The setting used in the act is very fine
 Something that was novel and that pleased everybody immensely was the work done with the Australian stock whip by Jack and Violet Kelly. The whip is used for variety of purposes in the great, new antipodean common wealth, where the cattle travel the broad ranges. It consists of short handle and lash some 25 feet long. To handle the whips as the Kellys handle them great strength and dex- terity are required. They snap them like volley from a gatling gun, cut paper with the tip of the lash. and Kelly tips the ashes from cigarette held in the mouth of Violet Kelly. In his crowning feat Kelly cuts the neck from a stout mineral water bottle with the tip of the lash. He also manipulates whip 50 feet in length, which is made of Kangaroo hide, by himself
 Other worthy contributors to the ev- enings entertainment were the Stan dish Sisters, who sing, and Laypo and Benjamin, who are comedy acrobats. ''The District Attorney proved to be a sketch of far more power than the run of such matters. In a most dramatic story was briefly and con- vincingly presented by Francis Hoyt as the district attorney, John E. Les sig as Jim Greggs, the escaped con- vict, and Kathryn Lorraine, the con- vict's daughter and the wife of the district attorney. The applause that followed the curtain shows that a Brfd dgeport audience knows a good act of this type from. an indifferent one.
 Ward and Cullen are excellent en- tertainers, but their stuff is entirely and unnecessarily raw. The telephone song might be substituted without in- turing the repulations of the perform CTS or lessening the attendance at this most popular family playhouse.

ALIENATION SUIT TO
 RECOVER S15O,OOO
Especial from United Press.)

Especial from United Press.)
 New York, March IA jury of il men is today hearing testimony in the action Percival L. Harden, editor of the Club Fellow, has brought against T. E. Hoops, a broker, to re- cover $150.000 for alienation of the af- fections of the former Mrs. Harden. It took so long to get the Il men that counsel agreed not to try for the 12th man.
 After the Hardens were divorced, Mrs. Harden married Hoops. Hoops defense is that he could not have alienated the woman's affections as she never loved Harden. In this con- tentfon he is supported by Mrs. liar den-Hoops.

The Conscience Of Clara.

One day when Mrs. Bell was max
ing neighborly call on Mrs. Ellis,
the latter, in the presence OF her
caller. discharged her colored maid.
whose obstreperousness could be
borne with no longer.
A few weeks later Mrs. Bell again
called on Mrs. Ellis, and to her sur
prise her hostess informed her that
Clara was back.
The services of the maid were re-
quired by her mistress, who pressed
the button in the drawing room.
There was, however, no response. Fin
ally Mrs Ellis went out and waited
on herself While she was gone,
Clara. who was acquainted with Mrs.
Bell. having served in her family also.

planned:

Salt on French Roads.

AS a general rule, the roads in and
around French towns are tarred at
the commencement of the summer in
order to abate the dust nuisance. 1t
has. however, been found that tar,
although excellent in the case of
macadamized roads, is of little or no
value where car lines exist and paved
street crossings intersect the roads In
every direction, as tarring cannot be
carried out on stones.
The authorities, basing their action
on the well-known hygrometricaI
properties of common salt, have made
a test of its value in laying the dust.
Twenty yards of roadway have been
sprinkled literally with salt and then
watered freely. If the results are sat-
isfactory, salt will be used throughout
the town of Havre, it being impossible
to tar the majority of the streets, as
they are paved with rough stone
blocks.

JUSTICE ABOVE PROCEDURE.

Among the constitutional amend
ments adopted last week in California
is one providing that a Just verdict
shall not be set aside because OF tech
nical error in procedure, says the New
York World.
Popular sentiment in California was
strongly influenced by the case OF
Schmitz, the Doodle mayor of San
Francisco. He was convicted of ex-
tortiOn and sentenced to Jail, but es-
capped punishment because the indict-
ment did not set forth that he was
mayor of San Francisco when he COM
mitted the crime. OF course everybody
knew that SchmitZ was mayor. The
fact appeared throughout the evidence
Nevertheless, he was saved bv this
shallOwest of legal technicalities.
What California seeks to do by the
new constitutional amendment is wha'
Mr.. Taft has SO often urged-to pre-
serve the real ends of justice by strik-
ing at the laws delays and to make
the administration of the criminal law
at once effective and expeditions. The
abuses that have grown out of undu
regard for technical errors of proce-
dure in this state no less than Califor-
mia have done much to undermine re-
spect for both the courts and the law

PERSECUTION OF THE Gypsy
Forty-five Executed in Hungary in 1928
on the Charge Of Being
Cannibals.

The persecution Of Gypsies recalls
the old belief that the Gypsies were
cannibals, and the methods by which
judicial confirmation of the belief was
sometimes obtained. In 1928 As Hun
garian Gypsies were executed on
this charge. First racked until
they confessed TO murder, they were
taken to the place where their victims
were supposed to be buried and rack
ed again. No bodies were discovered
Therefore they confessed TO eating
them, and were duly executed. Joseph
II. sent commission down to inves-
tigate the case later, and the entire
innocence of the Gypsies was proved,
but history does not say what hap
pened to the witnesses for the prose
cution. .
Gypsies are still more or less "perse-
cuted," though in our milder modern
sense of the word. And no wonder A
couple OF years ago it was stated on
official authority that in Hungary most
of the serious crimes-murders. kid
naping and robberies-were committed
by Gypsies, and very few of the Of
tenders were caught. Gypsies are
mighty difficult customers to tackle
When ii was proposed in France that
all nomads should have identity cards,
TO be checked at each stopping place,
one Of them said to Matin reporter:
But l can't read, and | can't write,
and / don't know how old / am, nor
where l was born, and I don't remem-
Der the names Of the places where my
children were born, nor their ages ex-
actly. We don't bother ourselves about
such things" What can you do with
people so astutely ignorant?

looking to that end.
We pledge all of our candidates to
the senate and house of representa-
tives to abide by the advisory vote OF
the people for candidates to the Unit

electors at the polls.
We pledge such legislation looking
to the fixing of responsibility for

We favor the passage of law re-

plants pay taxes in Arizona and who
pay wages to Arizona printers.
We favor the enactment of a fair

The constitution of Arizona adopted
by the people is the fundamental law
Of the state and we pledge faithful
adherence to its provisions but in or

Business success depends upon

INSECTS HARMFUL TO MAN
Most Of Them Are Worse Than Use

at Sight.

Our instinct to kill insects at sight
Is perfectly sound, writes DR.. Woods
Hutchinson. Out of the quarter of a
million species now known to science.
a mere handful are even remotely
helpful to man, and most OF these
only by their power of living upon
other and more dangerous insects. On
the other hand, thousands of species
are actively hostile to man, to his
food plants and to his domestic ami
mails. Whole tribes have been swept
out Of existence by the attack Of in
sects carrying bacilli-as within the
last two decades, in central Africa, by
the dread sleeping sickness" carried
by the tsetse fly. Whole nations have
been weakened and crippled and
whole civilizations retarded by an
other insect-borne disease, malaria.
Indeed, recent investigators have
advanced the theory that the historic
decline of both Greece and Rome was
largely due to the ravages OF this dis
ease, brought into Europe by armies
