"a democratic leader Of the house,
issued a statement IN which he Bit
terly attacked the Taft order
throwing $4,000 fourth-class post
masters into tile classified service.
Mr.. Hull charged that the order
was issued on the eve Of the No
yember election, and that it was
designed to give an army Of re-
publican oliceholders a life tenure
Of their jobs. File charged further
that the order was d perversion
of the merit principle instead Of
an extension Of it.

ROBINSON AND cRUSOE GIRLS
AT THE GAYETY A BIG SUCCESS

Charles Robinson and his Robinson
Crusoe Girls have taken the stand at
the Gayety Theatre for the week.
Charles Is one-half of the show and
the combination of the rest of the play
ers the other half. Robinson shines u
brighter by far than any of his asso-
ciates, although several of the women
acquit themselves In no mean style.
Miss Ollie Woods is a soubrette that
makes the part worth while and dis
plays a clever bit of acting. She, how
ever, divides honors with Miss May
Bernhard, a local product, and Miss
Ida Emerson.
"Lost-a Million Dollars" is the We
hlcle that is used to introduce the per-
formers. AS usual the plot is quickly
thrown Upon the audience and the work
runs along in quick order. Robinson
here shows to advantage and embodies
himself in the heart of the patrons by
forcing them to laugh at his unique
face contortions and guess-what-it-is
voice. He Is assisted in a good num-
Der by Miss Emerson, who is no strang

Masqueraders'' is part W on the pro-
gram and is another laugh-producing
number. Here Mr.. Robinson shows his
versatility by assuming a different
character and playing the part to per-
lection. In this number he Is given

"ALIAS JIMMY VALENTINE
SCORES BIG HIT AT ORPHEUM.

Alias Jimmy Valentine" q four-aet
play, which is the offering of the Corse
Payton Stock Company this week ut
the Orpheum Theatre, is an excellent
production and every member of the
cast worth noting. The story reveals
the romance and natural manliness of
Lee Randall (alias Jimmy Valentine).
a young burglar, who's reformation is
brought about through investigation
by the Gate of Hope Society and love
for Rose Lane, a daughter of a banker.
Lee Randall is the reformed criminal,
working as cashier in the bank of the
girls father, who secured his pardon
from Sing Sing. A single cloud biors
his happiness. He is wanted In Mas
sachusetts for a job done long before.
Doyle. a detective, tracks him to the
bank and Randall has determined to
outwit him, In the meantime Randall
has also reformed two of his pals by
starting them on the right path, one
as Waterman in the bank with hun.
At the crucial moment when lie has
about convinced Doyle he is not
Jimmy" the Waterman enters, calling
him by the familiar name, to say that
the sister of the girl he loves has been
imprisoned IN the new vault, mo one
at hand knows the combination, and
Randall, without thought of self, works
the combination blindfolded. with his
representative fingers, sand-papered
down to the very nerves. while Doyle,
who had formerly expressed the wish
of catching Jimmy Valentine on the
job, stands by and watches the work.
The child is rescued, and by this act
Randall betrays his identity. A pathe-
tic scene between the girl, who has also
witnessed all, and the detective brings
about a happy ending. Miss Brownell
as Rose Lane was charming in her
coquettish love-making. while Clifford
Stork, as Lee Randall, was. as he al
ways is, well suited to the lovers part.
Harry Fenwick as Doyle, the detective,
was clever. but Randall's "aIibi' had
him going some" Robert J. Robinson
as "Blinky' Davis, a forger, and AL
bert o. Warburg as Dick the Rat" a
sneak thief, who appeared as convicts
in the first act, won loud applause for
their remarkable likenesses to the real
oonvicts and clever examples of their
profession given before the Gate of
Hope Society. Frank Payton as Hand
Ter, the warden of Sing Sing, was ex-
c%ellent, as was every character of the
splendid cast.
