LICENSE BILL HANGS FIRE
Both Boards of the City Council to
Hold Special Meetings
Tonight

President Brumback has called
special meeting of the Common Coun-
Gil for tonight for the purpose Of
acting on the annual license bill as
amended by the Aldermen Friday
night last.
Members Of the lower board
suggested that meeting of the Board
of Aldermen should be held at the
same time, and President Marbury
after consultation with members Of
the upper board concluded to is
sue a call for special meeting at
8 o'clock tonight.
The liquor license sections of the
new license bill are the subjects OF
considerable comment in the city. So
far as could be learned today, there
has been virtually no change in The
convictions of either side on the is
e.those favoring high license stand
ing by their guns, while others VINO
have advocated a conservative course
are still unmoved by the arguments
which have been advanced by their OPP
ponents.
The City Council at its first meet
ing adopted as guide for its orderly
proceedings "Jefferson's Manual Of
Practice"
At the last meeting of the Board OF
Aldermen Mr.. Hill, as he stated, to ia
cilitate the passage of the license law
offered a resolution suggesting a
conference committee from the Com
mon Council. 1t was also suggested
that the resolution was out OF order
as the request should come from the
Common Council in case that body
failed to agree with The amendments
made to the law in the Board of AL
dermen. Of course, there might Dc
no objection to such procedure, but
in many cases it is we'll known II
legislative bodies disagreements are
known to exist between coordinate
branches even before bills are present!
ed. Jeferson's Manual, page 135
says:
at is on the occasion of amend
ments between the houses that confer,
ences are usually asked, but they may
be asked in all cases of differences OF
opinion between the two houses on
matters pending between them. The
request for conference must always
be asked by the house which is pos
sessed Of the papers"
Again page 176:
"a conference may be asked before
the house asking it has come to a res
olution of disagreement, insisting or
adhering-and several instances have
arisen in the senate where a confer
ence has been asked Immediately upon
the passage of the house bill with
amendments and before the house has
come to a disagreeing vote upon the
Senate's amendments"
We read on page "a Constitutional
Manual and Digest where Jefferson is
quoted:
at is on the occasion of amend
ment between the houses tina. confer
ences are usually asked, but they
may be asked in all cases of differ
cnces of opinion between the hou es
on matters pending between them"
Quoting again from Manual and Di-
gest. page 354, we read as to confer
enccs these words:
"The usual course of proceeding
previous to conference is for one
house 20 disagree to the others

While it is the general custom to
pass he license law before June LIST,

cases can be cited when it was not

LIFE HUNG BY THREAD.

Just how great are the dangers to
which a camera man is exposed, or
oftimes exposes himself, was illus
trated while Lyman II. Howe's cam
era man was cinematOgraphing a
portion of the scenes of the Grand
Canyon of Arizona to be presented at
the Oliver Friday, Saturday and Sat
urday matinee.
For several minutes the life of the
photographer hung by a thread"
literally-the thread in this instance
being only a quarter inch rope at
the end of which photographer
was dangling over a fathomless abyss.
The rope became twisted and refused
to work over the pulley.
The danger was intensified every
second when the rope began to reak
under the strain. In vast solitude
the creaks became shrieks to the
photographer swaying over the vast
void beneath him. After escaping
from his hazardous position he de-
clared that, in one of those tense mo-
msnts, his whole life seemed to have
been wildly unfolded to him instead
OF seeing the glorious panorama over
which he was suspended.

AT THE ORPHEUM.

The new vaudeville bill which opens
at the Orpheum Thursday is Of real
top notch quality. Heading the pro-
gram are The Cavaliers, a musical
and singing act that employs five
women and six men. eleven in all. and
has occupied the headline pOsitiOn at
the Majestic. Chicago. within the past
few weeks. This is undoubtedly the
highest salaried act of its kind that
ever played South Bend. They not
only furnish a program of exceptional
excellence but the players are gor-
geOusly cOstumed and the special set
ting carried Is one of the most elabO-
rate used in the continuous houses.
Another feature that goes from here
direct TO the Palace Music Hall, Chi
cago. occupying a favored position on
the big bill at that house, is Ray Cox,
a singing coincidence OF unusual abil-
ity. Miss Cox is not content to simply
furnish exclusive comedv songs writ
ten for her, but she carried an original
aeroplane effect and sings som of the
numbers perched on her airship high
above the stage.
She does not attempt TO come out
over the audience but does a comical
and decidedly interesting disrObing
act while apparently above the clouds.
DeMar and Riley European panto-
mimists. offer "A Night of Mystery,
which is said to be full of laughs and
thrills. Smith and Pullman present
a singing and dancing number that is
out of the ordinary, and the Eugene
Trio, troupe of horizontal BAR gym
nasts, have new tricks and comedy
stunts. Altogether the bill offers
pleasing variety of new, clean vaude-
