What Is Going
On at the Theaters
This Warm Week

Among writers of meiodramas no
names are more familiar than those
Of Theodore Kremer and Hal Reid.
They may claim that Mr.. Belasco Is
entitled to stand at their side but
The Girl OF the Golden West" Is
Mr. Belasco's chief claim to distinc-
ton, in spite OF the fact that he
Glazing to have written The Darling
of the Gods. Maybe he did and # he
Girl of the Golden West" has enough
Of used over material to give 1t the
Belasco brand, but he never turned
out anything like Human Hearts, >
written, composed. staged and pre-
scented by Hal Reid.
II anyone ask what the foregoing
has to do with what IL going on at
the theaters this warm week let him
remember that The Confession" ap-
pears at the Academy. Thursday
matinee and night The Contest
sion was written by James Halieck
Reid. but IL the Jamesleck Is cut from
the name of James Haileck Reid, the
author will be revealed in all his
glory as Hal Reid, writer or real
melodramas, like Human Hearts.
II may be that James Halleck Reid
has contempt for meiodrama and
wishes to forget tand for the public
to forgep that Hal Reid and Human
Hearts" ever existed but he cannot
hide his light under bushsi Of re-
sounding names. James Halleck Reid
and Hal Reid are one and the same,
according to excellent authority. The
author of Human Hearts has re-
vealed himself In THE Confession

Says the truthful publicity man.
Looking down the tine of past pro-
auctions of cartoon plays, there is
one name that looms up as the pro-
Queer Of practically all the SUGGEST

has picked all of the winners in that
particular class OF plays, Mutt and
Jeff." although still young. has the
record OF them all. This has been
a season of a great number OF sue
cessful productions--New York has a
dozen Overwhelmingly khere are
20 many that the patronage is not
sufficient to make all of the deserv-

case when Mutt and Jeff'' was at
the Grand Opera House, or the Man

1t walked away with the record bust
:
Mutt and Jeff'' just simply doomed up
ali the one conspicuous success and
caught the popular fancy along with
most OF the loose change. Mutt and
JefY' with their entire family of sin
gers dancers and funmakers come to
the Academy for three performances
commencing Friday night.
Il Is the one deserving musical
comedy success of the season.

TUBERCULOSIS HARVEST

tBY UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATIONS
INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 14-Seventeen
per cent of the deaths of carpenters
and their wives are caused by tuber-
culosis, the most prevalent disease
causing death among that trade ac-
Brotherhood of Carpenters and Join
ers, which was submitted to the con-
vention at Washington this fall. Ac-
oording to Frank Duffy. general sec
retary of the organization, this disease
has made great inroads on the car
penters' organization, in spite of efforts
of the officials at the head of the union
to warn union men against it, The
prevalence of tuberculosis is attributed
TO dusty shops by Duffy. However. it,
was pointed out 10 him that the life
Of a carpenter is. in the main. an out
door life.
But the workmen may grow care
less" replied Duffy. working some
times 10 the point Of fatigue. subjected
to all kinds of weather, the outdoor
carpenter may have a tendency to pay
too little attention to his health Pneu-
time follows. Pneumonia some years
ago had a much higher death rate
among carpenters than now, although
the rate at present is still considerable"
Seven years ago Duffy wrote an arti-
Gle in the Carpenters Journal. entitled
Captains of Death" Denominating
consumption as the captain of death
he called pneumonia the king The
-,
slight colds and to neglect them was
called to the attention of the unonists.
The carpenters union pays a death
benefit on the death of either the car
penter or his wife. The figures Of the
report, which are based on the number
Of claims paid, include both members
of the family. From March l, 1911. to
March l, 1912, the union paid 3S5 claims
for death from tuberculosis. The num-
Der Of deaths during that time approx
mated 1900, hence more than II per
cent Of deaths were from this one dis
ease. The previous yearly report
showed 1929 per cent.
There has also been a remarkable
increase in the number Of deaths from
heart disease, according to Duffy
Deaths from that cause totaled 325. or
nearly Is per cent of all deaths in
l91112. During the year previous il
had been 1854 per cent.
Pneumonia runs about or per
cent a year and cancer as a cause
of death has been running high rs
compared with the average disease
Duffy in the report points out that tn e
percentage of deaths from tuberculosis
and heart disease is almost as high
as that due to accidents. The mum
her of deaths from accidents in the
Year was 39S. or only IA more deaths |
than from tuberculosis.
The deaths from accidents include |
many not suffered by carpenters in
their line f work as many deaths re
suit from accidents in the home or
elsewhere such as befall the ordinary
person not engaged in carpentry" de- /
clared Duffy. Taking into considera-
ton the work as a dangerous profes- |
sion, the deaths due to accidents of tn |
trade will fall far short of the deaths !
due to tuberculosis"

WILL VOTE FOR WILSON

The followers of President Taft in
California will not be permitted to
vote for him in November.
The supreme court has so decreed-
evidently much against its will, for
Chief Justice Beatty. in orally giving
the opinion of the court, said:
Il think it is very bad law and will
disfranchise practically a third of the
voters of the state. II disfranchises
absolutely all Of the voters of the state
as = third Of their proper repre-
sentatiOn in the state convention.
"The law might have answered very
wen under ordinary circumstances, but
III condition like this il does not and
il is not justitiable, in my opinion, but
II is the law.
IF they had had such a law at the
time Buckner and Mr.. Bryan were rival
candidates, il very well might have re
suited in the nomination of presiden-
tiaI elect ors who would have voted for
General Buckner.
"The law ought not to have been
passed, in my opinion, but being passed
we are bound by it as long as it is con-
CeuGu TO De constitutional.
Thou shalt not steal" is the slogan
OF Theodore Roosevelt and his so-called
Progressive party.
Yet in California, they stole the name
Of the Republican party, to which they
had no more moral right than the
Democrats or Socialists or Prohibitions
lists. They had deserted and repudiat-
ed the Republican party because it was
corrupt.
1t was corrupt only because it re-
fused to nominate Roosevelt for a third
term.
Had Roosevelt's fraudulent contest
ing delegations been seated in the
national Republican convention-which
would have given him the nomination
there would have been no cry of
fraud
Thou shalt not steal" But we may.
say the Holy Rollers
In November they will learn how
true 1t is that
HE who filches from me my good
name
Robs me Of that which not enriches
him,
And makes me poor indeed"
owe had to leave the word good"
in the above quotation, to preserve its
'symm etry.D
The Taft men and women-denied
the right to vote for their choice-will
punish their despoilers on election day
by casting their votes for Woodrow
Wilson.
There is nothing else for them to do
unless they permit themselves to be
altogether disfranchised.

devil. He speaks Of honor but would
have Republican electors chosen 20
vote for Taft, fote for Roosevelt in the
electoral college. Only that is right
which is good for him. Only that is
wrong which is bad for him. For
other candidates for Office, publicity of
expenditures, yes. For him, no. He
is the law above law, the exception
to rule. He is his own morality That
is why he is a bad-in the sense of
dangerous-man. In that pragmatic
sense he is Napoleonic. OstensibIy
fighting the viciousness of pragmatism,
he is its very incarnation, and the
worst of it is that he doesn't know il,

SOCIALISTS TO VOTE FOR Il. II.

500 iAktSIS 10 tOIE EOES Il. IT,
WASHINGTON, Oct 15.-RooseveIt
and the Progressive party will cut in
to the Socialist vote a third of a mil
lion, according to prominent Socialist
leaders here, who frankly say they re
gret Roosevelt is running.
The Socialists were expecting this
year to roll up 100000 votes in the
country. That is, they were expecting
to do SO before the nomination Of
Roosevelt by the Progressive party.
Now they have given it up.
They will consider themselves fortu-
nate if they obtain a total vote Of
SOC, 0,000 to 10000. They believe tina,
these several hundred thousand votes
which would have some for them VIII
be turned to the Progressive party.
Four years ago the Socialists rolled
up a vote of 100000.
They thought, before the convention,
that if the Republicans renominated
Mr.. Taft and the Democrats put up
conservative. conditions would be the
pest possible for acCessions 10 their
yoting strength. But The situation with
The Progressive party and Colonel
Roosevelt in the field is radically diff
ferent This does not mean that the
Socialists look on the Progressive par
ty as socialistic or on Roosevelt as
a Socialist or near-socialist.
What it does mean is that the So
cialist leaders realize that a great
many persons who are dissatisfied with
present Industrial and economic ana
social conditions, and who otherwise
would have expressed their protest by
voting for the Socialist ticket, feel that
the Progressives offer a platform which
they can support and which will bring
them many of the things they desire.

ROOSENELT. PRAGMATIST

Roosevelt is pragmatist. If evil
helps him along, he says like satan,
Evil, be thou my good" He is against
all bosses and trusts that are not for
him. He is against Hartman when
Hartman quits putting UP for him. He
hates Rockefeller but he loves Nor
gan. He loathes Lorimer but fra
ternizes with Cox and Finn Thou
shalt not steal" he cries at the Taft
machinists, but he will take all his
own machine can steal in the way of
delegates. He invents the steam roller
and rides il ruthlessly. When he is
under it he cries that il is an infer
nal Juegernaut. Thou shalt not
steal" he says, but his friends are
permitted to rape the Tennessee Coal
and Iron company. He discovers Taft
as saint, and later sees Taft as .

DIXIELASD NOTES

Editor Press-Dear Sir: The writer
was agreeably surprised at the ad-
yancement Dixieland has made in the
last six months. At an invitation
from the church committee, he visited
Dixieland Sunday TO be present at the
opening of the first church services of
Dixieland. More than fifty people as
sembled at the Dixie school house AT
10 a. m. Rev. Upton of Illinois
preached a sermon. The writer was
much surprised to see the familiar
song books of the First Presbyterian n
church of San Diego, sent over for this
occasion.
The singing was led by Messrs.
Carper and ViIagrama of San Diego.
Mrs. C. w. Nichols at the organ, and
e successful start was made along re
ligious line for the growing town
After the services the visitors We're
very kindly invited by the DixieIand
people to dinner, which was gotten

DROWNED n BEAR VALLEY

REDLANDS, oct. 12-Word from
Bear valley states that Howard Du-
tro. aged p. a well known Redlands
boy; William Talmadge, aged II, and
Otis Talmadge, aged II, are missing,
and it is supposed that they have been
drowned in the trecherous waters OF
Bear Valley lake. The drowning is
supposed to have happened early yes
terday morning. At 8 o'clock the three
boys boarded q canvas boat and
started duck hunting. Their absence
from home was not noticed until late
in the evening, and when they dfd not
return a search was instituted, but
they could not be found. Early this
morning w. Z. Knickerbocker. keeper
of the Bear valley dam, and a party
Of men resumed the search at a point
near the fshermen's cabins.
Three hats, a box and the oars Of
the boat were found. This afternoon
several men under the direction Of
Knickerbocker are dragging the lake
in the hope that the boys bodies may
be found. In the event they are not
recovered today, dynamite will be used
to bring the bodies to the surface.
The boys, who were stopping at the
Talmadge ranch, frequently made trips
out on the lake in search of ducks.
and heretofore had made the trips
without mishap. The supposition is
that in moving about in the frail boat
II was overturned and the icy waters
soon claimed its victims.
Howard Dutro, who was so well
known in Redlands, was spending his
vacation at the Talmadge ranch and
was assisting in the ranch work and
has been there for some time. When
in Redlands he worked as an elec-
trician and was employed by the In
dependent Electrical company His
father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs. j. H.
Dutro, reside at No. SO Sonora street
He also has brother and sister living
in Redlands.

Thieves Are Captured

Three Mexicans having a portion of
the plunder stolen from five persons
were captured Saturday afternoon by
the sheriff's and city marshars offices
working together, though only articles
stolen in the last few days were found.
News of the capture was withheld from
the public for a time in the hope that
more of the goods might be rovered.
1t is believed these are the men who
have been carryong on a regular cam
paign of stealing cf late. All three
