BEANS OF BUM ACTORS
BINGLED BY BAD BOY

Pete Duffy, a newsboy, 928 Or
leans street, is not a member of
the Drama League, he never saw
the Irish Players, but he knows
a good "show" when he sees one,
and his esthetie nature is outrag-
ed when he sees a bad one, Be-
cause of this artistic tempera-
ment Pete is now in the hands of
the juvenile officers.
Last night was amateur night
in a certain North Side theater.
Certain budding thespians were
scheduled to make their respec-
tive bows to the audience, recite,
sing or dance, and then try to get
off the stage before they were
run off.
The first actorine was a wait
ress in a Clark street lunch room
i'm the daytime. AS far as act
ing was concerned, she was a
good waitress. Pete didn't like
her. He didn't hiss. That wasn't
direct enough, so with gay
abandon and excellent aim,. Pete,
who was in a gallery seat, bump
ed the dame on the knob" with a
marble. The lady retired, and
Pete was happy.
Then young truck driver blew
on to sing.
When he began to sing every
one knew why he was teamster.
He could drive horses and scare
policemen in great shape. But
Pete wanted to hear opera, so
again the marble came into play.

WOOL TRUST FAILS TO
"SLIP ONE OVER"

Lawrence, Mass, March g.
The offer of a five per cent in
crease made by the American
Wooden Company, which is the
other name of the trust, to the
strikers will not be accepted by
them.
This was made certain this
afternoon when the Sub-conmit-
tee of the strikers reported this
afternoon that "the alleged con-
cessions of the company are no
concessions at all. They are an
insult to our intelligence and
manhood"
The truth seems to be. that the
Wool Trust tried to slip one
over"
Yesterday they announced a
general advance of five per cent
to all operatives. Immediately
the announcement was made,
their press bureau circulated the
report for the benefit of the public
that the five per cent increase
really was the same as a fifteen
per cent increase.

figured very closely. They said

PECANS GROW ON HICKORY
TREE THAT WAS BUDDED THREE
YEARS AGO BEARING NUTS.
MIR. Sem of the Eleventh District
Performed Same Surgery on Other
Trees, But Was Unsuccessful.

Performed Same Surgery on Other
Trees, But Was Unsuccessful.
A dispatch from Milledgeville says
"W. j. Hendrickson, the Burbank of
Baldwin county, is experimenting
trying to raise pecans on hickory
trees, and has made a good start
in that direction. He has cut on
tops of healthy hickory trees and top
worked them with pecan buds. He
is much encouraged, for the trees
have grown several feet in years
time"
The grating of pecan buds into
hickory trees is by no means a new
discovery. Mr.. S. j. Sem, one OF
Terrell's Well-know1 and successful
citizens of the Eleventh district, has
a hickory tree that was budded with
a pecan three years ago that bore
a crop of nuts this year The tree
has grown luxriantly, and Mr.. Sem
values it very highly He budded
a number of other hickory trees, but
was not successful with them. 1t is
a well recognized fact that the hick-
DRY tree is of the same family as
the pecan, and the two are closely
related in many ways.
There are instances in this section
where pecan growers have cleared
away hardwood forests, leaving rows
of young hickory trees the proper
distance apart, and then budded
an entire orchard of hickory trees
with pecan buds.

sTUBB's OPINION

Governor Walter Roscoe Stubbs,
who says Taft's name will not be
presented at the Chicago convention,
is monumental joke as a fOrecaster
of political events. Like the Kansas
City Star he seldom scores In fact,
he rarely touches first base. In the
second and seventh congressional dis
tricts few months ago the governor
mixed up the dope and administered
it in geneous doses He not only in
dulged in campaign tours but de-
clared for the Republican candidate
and the only thing that prevented
the majority in each district being
much larger was due to the fact that
Stubbs ended his speaking tour when
he did. Rooseyelt's candidacy would
be much better taken care of if
Stubs and spell binders of his cali
bree would leave the stump for those
whose opinions cut some ice.-Downs
