STAGE EMPLOYEES TALK.
Bill Reilly Is Here and Maude Adams Is
With Him.
(Bv ]. l.. Compton.l

(By ]. L. Compton)
Bill has got the great big show this
season. He needs all the room that the
Broadway theatre can give him and that
theatre, under the direction of Ellis Ora
ham, can give you anything and every
thing except money. Bill, when he gets
to Denver, thinks he has got back home.
And he has, because he is a good fellow.
everybody knows him and likes him. He
knows his business. He is a charter
member of Local No. l of the l. A. T. S.
E, has been a delegate to the majority
of the annual conventions held by that
body. He was carpenter with John
Drew when Maude Adams was the lead
ing lady and afterwards with Ethel Bar
rymore (and by the way, Ethel Barry
more was playing small parts at that
time with John Drew and her uncle, and
Maude Adams the leading LADY,. Now
he is with the greatest show on earth.
This is not said in a spirit of levity.
Emma Goldman, the celebrated anarch-
ist, says: 1T is the greatest drama of
modern times Maude Adams is the
greatest. most magnetic woman to inter
pret it. and Bill Reilly puts on the show.
Hugh Reilly is the trusted agent for
Miss Adams of the Chanticler company.
Hugh is the younger brother of Bill, the
carpenter with the show. l remember
well his first season on the road with
fdChey -NOidH was
carpenter and Hugh was property man.
Packey said that Bill had put Hughey
in his charge and if he didn't act the
part to his liking, he would threaten to
report him to Bill and have him disci-
plined when he returned to New York.
Now Hugh is the trusted agent for Miss
Adams. That's going some for stage
employe, isn't it? Now Hugh has it all
over Packey because Packey is running
and hos 10, 1r,nl- 70, oh ~

Johnny Keller, the efficient assistant
to Bill Reilly, propounds the following:
Mike Shea comes over from Ireland. is
here six months, goes back and dies;
what is he? Johnny is offering prizes
for the answer.
Frank Candy informs me that he is
going to handle the money for the alder
man in the eleventh ward and the su-
pervisor in that district for the Demo
cratic party. Go after him boys and get

A MISNOMER
Is the Word Direct" When Used by
the Direct Legislation League
OF Colorado.

The Rush amendment to the state con-
stitution for a public utilities commits
sion, to which The Bulletin called atten-
tion last week. has been altered so as
to allow an appeal to the supreme court.
The amendment, without any appeal to
a court, was adopted by the Direct Legis-
lation league. and the Trades Assembly
committee refused TO support It. When
the assembly committee took this action
the committee was denounced by MIR
Rush. but the persons responsible for
the amendment have ACKNOWLEDGED the
weakness OF their position by amending
u so as 10 allow an appeal 10 the su-
preme court.
when four members OF the executive
board can prevent any or all citizens
from becoming members of the league
there is little wonder that the league
con be so constructed that the friends
of those four board members can pass
anything. Any name submitted for mem
bership must receive n majority vote OF
the board of directors before II can be
submitted to the organization for vote.
There are nine of these trustees-seyen
OF them residing in Denver. II four of
the Denver directors are opposed to
name for membership II is never brought
before the league.
A Direct" Legislation league that
does not allow it's own members to vote
on its own personnel is some
what of hypocritical organization.
There is little wonder when the Direct
League of Colorado will not
allow the members TO vote on its own
personnel that II voted to o. X. the pro-
posed Rush amendment which consti-
tuted n court of absolute power with any
appeal forbidden.
What do you think OF Direct Legis-
10 dapfae a ffraCf Xnfn

THIS Is THE ANSWER.
The following appeared in the last issue of the
Review:


WHY IS ITY
Why is it that the parties responsible for
the initiation of the Coal Mine Commission
bill have placed the name of a newspaper
man, farmer and plumber as the spons-
for the bill, and coal miner9 Isn't
it fact that commission of this kind
should require at least ONE man who is
skilled coal miner? That the commission
should have only union on it is an
OVERSIGHT; that this man should be
member of craft that has LEAST to do
with coal mine is a BLUNDER.
The Answer: The Coal Trust has all along been
against the state operating coal mines and selling
to the consumer-so has the Review, which claims
to represent the United Mine Workers of America
The Review is again trying to deceive the miners
into believing that the coal amendment is against
the interests of the miners The last paragraph on
the bill it appears the petition reads: ''The
sgners hereof designate and appoint Edward Keat-
ing w. r. Callicotte and Frank A. Bryan to repre-
sent them in all matters concerning the same" Mr.
keatlng Is the newspaperman referred Mr.. CALI
cote the farmer, and Mr. Bryan the plumber These
three men given only the right to act for the
sgners of the petition such certifying it to the
secretary of state and seeing that it is put the
ballot. There is commission named in the amend
ment. The state board of land commissioners is en-
powered to mine and deliver coal. This board will
most likely put union coal miner in charge of the
work. The Review get copy of the amendment
at the Office of The Bulletin, and therein will be
found the following:
1.-The State Board of Land Commissioners are
hereby authorized to lease, mine extract sell and
distribute the COAL oil and other substances so
served for and behalf of the state of Colorado

Sentences of penitentiary imprison-
ment were imposed to day by Justice
Anderson upon Reeves Wood, Thomas

convicted of forgery in connection
with the mulcting Of the Western
Union Telegraph Company by means
Of bogus money orders.
Owen Brennan, who is jointly indict-
ed with the three men, did not appear
for trial, and deputy United States
marshals are hunting for him.
Sentences of the Men.
Wood, who was held responsible by
the jury for three such kilograms. was
sentenced to three years in the peni-
Tertiary. Wynn was given eighteen
months at Atlanta for implication in
two kilograms, and Read. convicted or
joining in the cashing of one of the

ton.
