EXCELLENT
Bill is Put On at the Odeon
Last Half Of This
Week.

The shows at the odeon still con-
tinue to keep up to the high stand
ard, as the bill for the last half of
the week is an excellent offering.
Martyne is the cleverest ventrilo-
quist who has been seen here for
some time. He has perfect control
of his voice and keeps the audience
guessing whether it is he talking
or not. A voice coming apparently
from behind serene on the stage,
of woman, creates a big sensa-
ton, until the scene is moved and
discloses an empty space. Hearty
applause proves him to be a master
of this art Vie shows his versa
tility by some very clever 4mper-
lsonations of different characters.
schaffer and Mason present an es-
pecially good singing and talking
skit. They have a good line Of
comedy and the songs are new and
well put over.
] Dan Ramseys Harmon1StS In
gongs, patter and dances make a
big impression with the patrons.
Thier offering is somewhat original
and tells of two actors who try to
convince "reub" manager that
two men and a trunk contribute a
trio, and are canned" which is the
title of the farce. On the way. to
the depot they meet the local dray-
man who happens to be member of
the village choir and who sIezes the
opportunity to display his talent.
HE is Immediately engaged by the
actors, fills out the trio and every
thing ends happily. The idea is
unique.
The bill is br1mful OF clever
comedy, and the voices all blend in
a pleasing manner. Capacity
should rule for the remainder of the
week.

LIVELY TILT OCCURS
BETWEEN SENATORS
OVER ROOSEVELT
John Sharp Williams and
Bristow Clash on Floor
of Senate.

Publication of the International
Harvester trust correspondence, which
was sent to the Senate Wednesday,
led to a lively debate in the Senate
yesterday afternoon, in which Sem
ator John Sharp Williams and Sem
ator Bristow were the chief parti-
cipants.
The debate took on some amusing
turns and edited the galleries great
ly. Senator Bristow defended Col
onel Roosevelt in an able manner
and Senator Williams attacked. the
colonel with his customary sharpness
of tongue.
Senator Williams in the course of
his speech asked Senator Bristow if
he subscribed to this creed:
II believe in Theodore Roosevelt,
Maker of Noise and Strife. and in
Ambition, his only creed (My Lord) !
He was born of the love of power
and suffered under William II. Taft;
was crucifed, dead and buried. He
descended into Africa. The third
year he arose again from the jungle
and fastened over the sea and sit
teth on the right hand of his party,
whence she shall come to scourge the
licked and the dead. I believe in
the Holy outlook, the Big Stick, the
Ananias Club. the forgiveness of po-
1ftical activities, the resurrection of
Presidential ambitions and the third
term everlasting. Amen! Amen!
Amen!"
Senator williams dealt sarcastically
with the question of good and bad
trusts. He warned the Republicans of
the danger of third term. The cleo
ton OF Roosevelt would mean an end of
American institutions. He compared
n xrt.t .tDl,
nantly resented by Senator Bristow
In the course of his remarks, Senator
Bristow said, defending Mr.. Roosevelt:
He will be remembered as a great Do
litical leader, as contributing in a mar
velous way to the benefits of the coun-
try after his traducers are forgotten.
AS far as Mr.. Roosevelt's action is con-
cerned, / have abundant faith in his
ability to speak for himself, and that
can be said of him more than any other
man who lives who is in American poll
tics or who has been in American poll
tics for quarter of a century and
that Is why when he speaks his lam
guage Ia responded to by more Ameri-
can people as the expression of their
sentiments and their Judgment than any

and file of the great Republican party
