FERRIS HARTMAN COMING

A great item of general interest in the theatrical world, which concerns the public of Clifton is the fact that Ferris Hartman is soon to bring his big company here to present to local playgoers ''The Campus" the record breaking Musical Comedy of college life which enjoyed such a phenomenal run in the city of Los Angeles, where it reached PIP performances. MT. Hartman is one of the best known comedians of the present day, espec- ial1y in the west, where he has ap- peared almost exclusively for a num- Der of years. This will be the first time that MT. Hartman has appeared in Clifton and no doubt will be eagerly welcomed. The play, which MT. Hart man has selected as the vehicle for the present tour has been endorsed by all the critics of Salt Lake, Denver, Kansas City, St Louis, Chicago and San Francisco, where it met with most enthusiastic receptions. Wal composer of "The Campus" will be in the company supporting MT. Hart man as well as Miss t'Muggins" Day. :es, possibly a most charming sou brette and Roscoe Arbuckle, the TO- tund comedian, who enjoys such a splendid reputation. Much has been

WASHINGTON, July 17.-Sweeping

mission Of its investigation into the
business OF the Thirteen great express
companies of the United States.
Dealing with the identity of interest
between the various companies, the
report finds that while these. cOm-

is of interest to regard this fact that
by stock ownership and otherwise
they are 80 interlaced, intertwined.
and interlocked that 1t Is with difficult

WOMEN WORKING
clean Up NEWPORT

NEWPORT, r. l., July 1.-THE wo-
men of Newport have arrayed them.
selves in a thrilling battle to purge
this famous resort Of all that Is un-
clean, morally and physically. En-.
couraged by victories of the United
Civic Societies earlier in the year,
the fair fighters now declare this So
cial Mecca shall be known hereaf-
ter as the ideal "spotless town."
Last night the enemy" which is
made up of many allied forces, be-
came panic-stricken when it was an
nounced that women and men detec.
tives, unknown to each other, who
have been working for days, had
made an amazing report of evils un.
earthed.
Then the suspected ones learned
that Governor Pothier, acting under
authority vested in him several
months ago through a special appro-
priation by the Legislature, had been
operating his own secret service ag-
ents at the resort and had received
some Illuminating reports.
Today every man is afraid of his
brother. So cleverly has the detec-
tive work been conducted that only
one person knew until yesterday
what had been unearthed. Then the
report, covering a scope far wider
than was at first intended, was turn
ed over to a special secret service
committee of seven leaders, in the
movement for a purified Newport"
So astounding are some of the con-
diLlons revealed that the women and
the sincere men reformers will lay
the full plan for stamping out each
condemned report before making
known where the blows are to fall.
Meanwhile the detective work is
going right along. In this connection
it may be said that if IN energetic
detective, who is just as likely to be
a woman as a man, has not already
passed the portals of the famous
Nautilus club, that miracle soon will
be performed. 1t is said that the plan
to obtain this clinching bit of evil
dence, w4..ch would wipe out the re-
naming social club where the god
dess of chance is openly worshipped,
was conceived by a brilliant woman
known upon two continents. And her
friends declare she will deserve the
plaudits of the law-abiding residents
here If she succeeds in closing the
castle known as CanfeM's. So, zeal
ously are the organizers of the cru.
SADIE guarding the name of this mat.
ter that tonight it is ven rumored
that she played detective herself.
But assurance has been given that
when the evidence is ready to be
produced the woman will be revealed
and her splendid work clearly por.
trayed,
