LULU CHASER IN MISS
DUDELSACK' NEXT WEEK

Miss Dudelsack'' comes to the Ly-
ceum Monday and Tuesday, May 20
and 81, with Lulu CHASER in the star
role, a company Of sixty and a spe-
cialorchestra. While miss Dudel-
sack" has only been seen in few CT
ties in this country, it is an esta blished
European success, it's alluring and
tuneful muic and dainty story having
given it popularity in every important
city on the Continent It was secured
by Werba and Luescher soon after
they produced 1.-THE Spring Maid", and
is said to have much of the musical
quality and charm of that sensational
success.
The scenes of the operetta are laid
in Scotland, giving opportunity for
picturesque stage settings and Co.'S
tunes; and kits and plaids of bonnie
Scotland form a background of rich
color. Its story is romantic and it's
characters interesting: Miss Dudul-
sack is said to give Miss CHASER the
best rale she has had since dolly
Warden and one in which her mag
netic temperament and infectious good
humor vie with her vocal abilities.
There are many song numbers in
the operetta, all of the whistling sort.
While much of it's dialogue is set to
music, giving 1t an unusual operate
value among recent musical produce
tions. This will be Miss Glaser's first
Pacific Coast visit since she was seen
in Dolly Warden" six years ago.

':PINK LADY" ON HER WAY.

Nothing quite the equal in size and
Importance in the musical comedy
field has ever been seen in Duluth to
compare with Klaw & Erlanger's pro-
duction Of 1.-THE Pink Lady,, which is
booked for at the Lyceum soon. This
newest hit in the popular field of en-
tcrtainment is in three acts and as
many scenes. It's book and lyrics are
written by c.. M. S. Mcclellan, the
author of THE Belle of New York"
and Leah Kleschna" while the scors
is the work of Ivan Caryll of the
Gayety Theater, London, who has half
a hundred great hits to his credit, but
in none of which has he registered the
popular success that he has with '"The
Pink Lady" II is delightfully."- clean
cut and charming, made brilliant by
tine most pleasing music that has
been turned out for work of this
kind in years.

CONGRESS PLEASES
DULUTH LABOR men
Passage Of Injunction Bill
Marks New Epoch in Trend of
Labor Legislation.

Duluth's trade unionists were more
than pleased to learn yesterday Of
the passage by the house of repre-
sentatives on Tuesday night of the
Clayton anti-injunction bill by a vote
of 244 to 81. Every Democrat pres
emit voted for the bill, as did also all
of the progressive Republicans, and
the result was announced to the ac-
compartment of remarkable DEM
onstration. The legislation is re-
garded as one of the most advanced
steps ever taken by congress In the
interest of workingmen.
Six years ago the representatives
of the American Labor movement.
headed by Samuel Gompers, called
upon the then speaker of the house,
Mr.. Cannon, and urged upon him
the passage of several measures of
interest to the working classes.
Among these measures was the anti
injunction bill. Mr.. Cannon inso-
lently replied to the men of labor
and reminded them that he and his
colleagues were the best judges of
the needs of labor.
The American Federation of Labor
then decided upon a political course.
At the time there was not one work.
ingman in congress. Today there
are IA, and this IA seems to be able
to pass through congress every meas
ure advocated by the American Fed
GRAFTON Of Labor.
The opposition to the Clayton anti
injunction bill endeavored to put
through a substitute drawn by Rep
resentative Sterling Of Illinois. This
modified the sweeping terms of the
Clayton bill, but it was defeated 219
to 48. 1t was generally said that
the Clayton measure would meet with
little opposition in the senate.
The bill amends the law to pro-
hibit the issue of injunctions without
notice being served on those affected.
Such injunctions would be effective
for seven days only, and renewal
would be possible only when the
court was convinced such action was
| necessary for the conservation of
rights of property. John Doe" in
functions would be impossible and the
rights of peaceful picketing in
! strikes or peaceful boycotts'' would
be recognized.
