A. F. OF L. WILL
 ELECT OFFICERS; G0MPERS TO WIN

Seattle, Nov. 20-The report of the committee on adjustment dealing mostly with jurisdictional disputes be- tween the trades, was the special or der when the American Federation of Labor met today. The temper of the delegates indicated that the votes in favor of settling the petty differences which have caused so many strikes would be decisive.
 When the jurisdictiona1 matters are out Of the way, the resolutions com nnittee will probably report on the resolution calling for federal inves- tfgation of, the charges that the Michi- gan copper companies obtained title to part of their land Illegally. r The resolutions committee also has before it the dispute between the Mo Nulty or sitting faction of the Broth erhoed of Electrical Workers and the sFeeid, or insurgent faction. It Is said that the committee will report in ia vor Of the McNultyites and that the California, delegates will make a hard fight for the insurgents. Election of officers is on the pro- gram for Friday. The reelection of President Gonpers, Secretary .Morri- son, Treasurer Lennon and First Vice President James Duncan is conceded John. Mitchell is seeking to elect John F. White, president of the United Mine workers, to succeed him as see- ond vice-president: It is apparent that the adrninistra- ton is In full control of the sttua- tfon.

ATTRACTIONS
 AT 1.-THE THEATRES
POLES THEATER

Come Back to Erdn!" What a wealth of meaning has this little ex- c1amation, for to the shores of grassy Ireland are the eyes of thousands in this country looking, and many a fond heart turns with longing to the day when free from care visit to the sh ores of the Emerald Isle may be made. Taking advantage of the senti- rnent involved Charles Mack, the tal- ented actor, with company of su- perior players has evolved a sketch which appeals to all true hearted Irdshmen as we'll as those who ap- preciate the beauty, the natural wit and the melody of the Celtic isle. Af- ter a most successful tour of the coun- try, greeted on every hand with the most popular success, Mack and com pany are coming to PoIi's big theatre today with their special scenic effect and will produce this headline act for the de1ectation of everyone who has an ounce of sentiment in their heart and veins.
 On the bill with Mack, and which is designed to eclipse all previous efforts of Manager Poli are the Fox and Fox des circus, for the lover of the animal; ReIIis, the girl singer often called the girl with the golden voice; Logan & Ferris. in their whirlwfnd talking and singing festival; Knowles & White in a. diversion which is scream from the time they step upon the stage, and the Walling Levering troupe of cyclists whose oddities and specially constructed wheels permit of feats never witnessed by the theatre patron. There is a wealth of comedy throughout and with the special equipment carried will make one of the biggest productions staged at this theatre of four thousand laughs.
 Janet of the Doons, an Edison TO- mance of real life in two reels will be the special feature picture which will top a number of special release films

Alexandra Members Indignant Over
Published Report Concerning
Institution

Alexandria Elks, who were present
at the meeting of the grand lodge OF
Elks held in Rochester, New York, re-
Gently and VINO took an active part IN
the fight to retain the Elks' National
iIome at BedfoK! Springs, this state,
are indignant at the reports when
iwere published yesterday in Wash
.ington newspaper of the alleged dis
satisfaction of the members OF the
!nr%ier who are taken care Of In the
home and believe that new cam
,paign to prejudice yhe proposaton TO
erect new buildings at Bedford City
to cost S25O,O00 has been started.
The Virginia Elks before going to
Rochester secured the fullest reports
Of the conditions Of the institution
which is maintained for old and feeble
members of the order. Statements
were secured from more than 80 pei
cent of the inmates declaring thel
satisfaction with conditions at Bed,
ford city and expressing the hope
that the home would remain in ITS
present location. There was some dis
satisfaction expressed because the
buildings were smll and not modern
! in all particulars but this would be
'remedied by the construction of the
proposed additions to the plant. As
result of these statements the grant
lodge adhered to its original pan OF
erecting the new buildings and plan:
have been prepared for the new struc
lures which will be started shortly
Temporary arrangements hive beer
made for those at present in the home
while the improvements are being
made.
The fight against the Bedford cit!
home is largely due to the belief o
many members of the order of Elk
that the National Home should be L
more central location.

he became incenscd He picked up a
broomstick and struck her on the
head. and when she attempted to
evade the stick by running, he struck
her Il violent blow on the right side
