COLONEL INJECTS
A LITTLE GINGER
Starts Things Moving More
Briskly in His New
York Campaign.
(National News Association

NEW YORK, March S.-Dissatisfied
with the tagging progress of his cam
paign in this state Col. Roosevelt
held conferences with a number of
his supporters at the Outlook office to-
day. and injected little ginger into
1t.
In vigorous language the Colonel
announced that things would have to
move a little more briskly. The Ex-
President still feels very bitter against
the action of Secretary Stimson in
criticising the Colonel's candidacy in
his Chicago speech. The Colonel be-
lieves that Stimson's speech was q
mark of ingratitude and was i'll timed.
The Colonel landed morning news
paper in the Ananias club because of
story printed today that the Colo
mel had written Stimson condoning
him for his Chicago speech because he
recognized that Mr. Stimson is under
obligation to the administration. Mr..
Stimson was quoted as saying that
Col. Roosevelt had written to him.
"Mr. Stimson never made any such
statement as that credited to him, -
said Mr.. Roosevelt. Il have not writ
ten to Mr.. stimson since 1 read his
Chicago speech"
The Colonel adopted an air Of mys-
terry when asked again to explain the
flying visit which George w. Perkins,
former member of the firm of ]. P.
Morgan and company paid to him at
Oyster Bay.
"You will see later what that visit
meant" was the only reply the Colo
mel would give.

Queer Audience Views Comedy.

A four-act comedy recently given by
the New York School for the Hard OF
Hearing, created singularly weird
impression amongst those present
who were not familiar with lip read
ing and the sign language. Words
were used, but they were not meant
to be heard, for the players and most
of the audience were deaf Cues and
clever lines alike were read, not
heard, and the lips of the silent speak
ers were the media. Even the hand
clapping, with which some of the
audience, unfamiliar with the conven-
tons of the lipo-drama, were prompt
ed to express their applause, was dis
couraged by the knowing ones, who
seemed to manifest their approval by
an airy wave of the hand aloft. In
the longer play presented, pity was
taken upon that portion of the audi
ence which, though able to hear, was
so ill-eQuipped as not to be able to
read the lips of the performers. So
in MANY a Slip 'TwiXt the Girl and
the Lip the lines were read out
loud, even though they were not
heard by any of the members OF the
cast.
