the discussion in the executive com,
mittee meeting last Saturday said,
The people of New England be,
lieye that southern representation is
unfair TO the north, but it would be
unwise to hasten the changes that
may seem advisable because we have
mo convention to nominate, presi,
dent until 1916. Their would surely
be trouble il we do it now. Let us
postpone some of these questions till
things are more settled. OF course,
it is not fair that New Hampshire,
with $4,000 republican votes, should
have eight delegates and Texas with
$4,000 republican should have forty,
And it is not fair that California with
woman suffrage should have a larger
presentation than Massachusetts
without

The attraction at the Elks theatre with special children's matinee to. day, of Francis Wilson's famous comedy 'The Bachelors Baby," will have as feature the talented Eng fish child actress little Mimi Yvonne who made her first appearance with Martin Harvey the celebrated Eng fish actor, at the Theatre Royal Dublin, Ireland, at the early age oi two years and six months, appearing in the play scene of Hamlet" Even when so young she showed evidence of her talent by wanting to do more than was required of her. She start ed to dance, but "cake walk" being rather out of place in Shakes pearean play, Mimi was soon hurried off the stage.
 Her .rext appearance was in fathers pantomenes where she creat- ed quite a sensation as being the youngest speaking actress on the stage, Mimi next appeared in New York as Peter in "Passers By" under MT. FroLman's management and scored quite a success. Mimi has been described as a clever child actress of wonderful beauty and pen sonality and who has a. great magle- tism with the audience.
 The name of Mimi was given to her from the fact that her sister who was leading woman with Martin Harvey in England. was playing the part of Mimi in ssThe Only Way at the time the child was born-when the young stranger arrived it was decided to name her after the famous heroine of that play-"Mimi."
