and beauts. It's me for cats after
this-why they do the same stunts
o dog can do. She's got some dandy
monkeys, too.
George w. Hnssey Is a ventriIo-
quist--a man what says things With
his mouth shut-that's some trick,
believe me; wish l could do It. I
wouldn't get into SO much trouble.
That fellow Hussey can sing too
not good, you know. but you'd never
know 1t was him, so he's safe.
The Washington Band is the
classiest thing. The whole crew
come out dressed like George Wash
ington, and gee, they are some band.
They played a lot of dne stuff and
when they got down to earth and
played some ragtime, well o ought
to hear the audience give them the
glad hand.
Jeanette Childs is some dancer
and a dandy looking girl. She sure
can swing her pedals some, and is
there with the voice.
The. sketch is a scream. Say,
imagine a girl that never saw a man
running up against a New York bum
who got tangled up In a balloon and
landed In her garden. Well, that's
what Adam the Second is about.

actors. Well. when she sees the fell

but not the kind she means1. Gee,
1t was funny the things she said and
did, and him, we'll. she had him
frazzled; he didn't know whether
she was fooling, crazy, or meant It.
You better come down to P~roctor's,
get a whack at It. and laugh yourself
sick. You can take it from me. it's
some act.
Just q word more. to say the
souvenirs that were given out to the
ladies on Tuesday and Wednesday,
was nothing to eat. so I didn't get
any. but the girls are talking about
them yet. So long

TOOK NAP IN
COURT ROOM
Wanted to Fight His Distur-
bers--Pays $40 Fine.

A disposition to fight after he had
been aroused from peaceful sium-
bers on a bench In the police court
caused Krigamish yarnbora, a Pole
thirty-seven years old, OF 750 Hal
avenue, to be landed In q cell last
night and he was fined $40 this
morning. The man came with q
friend to police headquarters yes
terday afternoon to swear out a
complaint against a man for assault
and battery. Both were under the
Influence of liquor. Sergeant Nc
Dermott told them to return at
O'Clock.
They came back about sac
|o'clock and were in a drunken con
dition. They sat in the court room
and later lay down to sleep. A few
minutes before the court convened
they were aroused and told to "geI
out" Yarnbora had a grouchy
disposition because he had been dis
turbed, but his friend went out
quietly The former fought with
the officials and In the mixup De,
~tective Sergeant John A. HUFF was
scratched on the hand by one OF
Yarnbora's finger nails.
The prisoner wanted to telephone
for aid so that his fine could be paid
and he might be released this morn
Ing. His antics with a telephone
instrument amused many. He at.
tempted to listen with the receiver
and transmitter at the same time
and talk into the air. 1t required
the aid of two men to hold him and
the instrument so that he could talh
and listen.

Captain John Grier and his FAM
lily had q narrow escape from drown
ing when the captains barge sank
In Staten Island Sound almost oppo-
site the Standard Oil Works. and IS
a result are slowly recovering from
the shock. A hole was rammed In
the craft by a huge piece of ice and
the barge sank SO rapidly that 1t was
only after strenuous efforts that
Captain Grier safely landed his wife
and three year old son aboard q
neighboring barge. He became ex-
hausted, fell overheard and was
swept down the stream by the tide
to be rescued only in the nick OF
time.
The barge was in the tow of a
Lehigh Valley tug boat according to
Elizabeth papers. It required the
combined efforts of rev of this
tug and another one of the Stand
ard Oil Company's feet to rescue
the man. When he was hauled
aboard the. oil company's vessel he
tainted. He was revived and brought
to the barge carrying his wife and
son.
1t is claimed the sunken barge
was loaded with $40 tons of hard
coal consigned to pier 80, North
river. Local officials of the Lehigh
Valley railroad say that do. not know
of the accident and do not know II
any of their tug boats had hauled
Captain Grier's craft.
Charles Farrell, a representative
of the Philadelphia & Reading
railroad at Port Reading, said today
he did not know If Grier's barge
had been loaded at Port Reading
nor If 1t had been towed from Port
Reading or vicinity.

THE BENEFIT Of RACE.
DR.. Stanton Colt Gives Reason
for the Advocacy of
Divorce.

For the benefit OF the race alone would
he advocate divorce. said DR.. Stanton
Colt, chairman Of the West London Ethi-
cal Society, yesterday in an interview. DIR.
Colt Saturday night addressed the STAN
ton Equal Suffrage League of the Dis
trict at the Fairmont Seminary. He left
here yesterday to go to Philadelphia. DIR.
Colt sad that human beings must be di-
v.ded into two classes in the discussion
of marriage and divorce but not as men
and women.
THE division We must make is between
the sane and the insane" DR.. Colt said.
81 believe that all trouble in married
life comes from the abnormality of some
instinct, passion or emotion in the hus-
band or wife.
Divorce must be granted on the
grounds established by the laws OF
eugenics If the absolute separation OF
man and woman, with permission to en-
ter into wedlock with another, is to be
given, 1t should be given when it will be
better for children, the community, the
nation and the emotional nature. do
not advocate divorce because l pity the
individual. but because have something
greater in mind-the good of the race.
"a person should not be permitted to
desert his post simply because he is un-
happy. We must make the laws finer,
based more upon the result to the COM
munity and not to the individual.
maintain that the present trouble with
the divorce laws is their brutality. their
vulgarity and their blindness to the good
of the community
