"A Butterfly on the Wheel. :"

Great interest is aroused in the
forthcoming appearance here short
ly of the success OF two continents,
"a Butterfly on the Wheel" which
will be seen at the Grand Saturday
night.
The engagement of this play which
has met with such universal success
should be q notable one. In London
and New York 1t was proclaimed one
of the complete triumphs of the sea-
son-thus proving the appeal of its
theme to be world wide.
1t has "a punch" Of course all great
plays have and this one is its realis-
tic English divorce court scene that
holds the auditor intensely absorbed
in the gruelling Of poor frail But
terfly Of wife by pitiless prescott
ing attorney to her final undoing.
It's direct dialogue is OF the grip
ping kind and holds one spellbound
by the cunningly devised deductions
on the thoughtless actions Of the But
terfly and transforms them into con-
yincing accusations Of guilt.

FAIRMoNT RUNNERS WIN.

WHEELING, Sept. -. - While
forty thousand people watched, the
horses engaged in the racing on the
third day OF the Lake Erie circuit at
the state fair, put up the most ex-
lifting finishes of the week.
Possibly The most exciting contest
If the day was the match race be-
.ween Pickles, owned and driven by
Vance Nichols, and Knight Onward,
driven by Ray. Pickles took two
heats and the $1,000 side bet. The
best time was 2:07 1-2.
Fairmonters here had lucky day
with the runners. In the two events
one first and one second money was
taken by horses owned IN the neigh
uJlIng town. The Earl of Richmond,
owned by ]. l.. BoOher, won the first
event, journey over a distance Oh
q mile and a sixteenth and The Roy
al Prince, from the same stable, was
second in the next, at three quarter
of a mile. Gordon, the stable ride.;
was up on both horses.
The i'll luck which has befallen
the ravorites here continued. Weu-
.lesday there was a fortune droppC )
on Arita V, owned and driven by
John Pender. Yesterday a ike per-
Torrance took place in the 2:15 trot
which was won by Junior Watts.
florence Vincent which was the pro-
libitive favorite in the selling, ow-
.ng to her race at Clarksburg last
week, was no in the money. The
winner was as good as Az 10 a.
all stages. Mittle Bedford, the ia
;orite, was out Of the money in the
!:23 pace, as was Nancy Boyer, ia
Jorite in the 1927 trot.
?Giai2crs and drivers here accred =
t Il e aaiy reversal of form to the
local track which is slower, heavier
md more sandy than the Clarksburg
''ouse where the horses were last
week.

opinion that the benefits to be deriv-

GAVE TO SULzER,

Checks st Contrl baiers = Mere
50 Net Restricted.
a POINT FOR the GOvERGeR
Presiding oflcer st Impeachment
Trial Rvles That Uss Of Money
- Charged Could Not Con
stitute Larceny.

Albany, N. Y, Sept 25.-0overnor
SulSer was free to use the $500
check given him by Jacob H. Schiff,
q New York banker, in any way he
chose. The banker so declared on
the witness stand at the Impeachment
trial Of the governor. The designa-
ton Of the check across its back, as
contribution to the governors cam
paign fund, did not restrict its use to
that purpose, Mr.. Scheff said.
Henry Morgenthau, ambassador to
Turkey, formerly chairman of the H.
nance committee on the national Dem
ocratic committee, testified that when
he gave the governor check for
$1,000-a personal contribution-he
had placed no limitations on it's use.
He said, however, that he had made
the gift to help the governor in his
campaign and had been "foolishly
generous"
These are two of the alleged cam
paign contributions which the articles
of impeachment against the governor
charge That ne mlsuSed
1T possibly cannot make any differ
ence in this case, but if were sitting
in a criminal prosecution" Judge Ed
gar NJ. Cullen, president of the court,
said, 81 should have to charge the
petit jury that, if the owner consented
to the use in any manner of the money
or check given by the party to whom
it was delivered, such use would not
constitute larceny"
This testimony and the ruling of
the presiding Judge thereon marked
the opening of the actual trial of the
| impeached executive, which up until
noon had been delayed by argument
on objection of counsel for the de-
tense. At that hour all obstacles to
the taking of testimony had been
swept aside by vote of the court,
thereby permitting Eugene Lamb
Richards of counsel for the managers
of the impeachment to outline, the evil
dence against the governor. This
opened the case.

SUIT AGAINST MRS, MACKAY
Wife Of Famous Surgeon Asks $1,000
600 for Alienation Of Husbands
Affections.

New York, Sept 25.-Mrs. Joseph
A.ABlake, wife of a noted surgeon, has
served Mrs. Clarence H. Mackay, So
ciety leader, with the necessary pa
pers in a suit for 100000 for aliena-
ton of her husbands affections
Because of the reluctance of both
parties to the action to face publicity
there has been delay in filing the
issue in court, but unless an agree
ment is reached-now looked upon as
impossible, because of the bitterness
of the plaintiff-the papers will be
offered for judicial record at the COM
ing term.
In spite of the effort at secrecy, the
matter of the suit has been subject
of gossip several months, and COM
munication was made to morning
paper by a friend of one of the parties
involved, and his statement was I'M
qualifedly confirmed from an authori-
tative source.
