Out on the Stage.

We were afraid to start them on
the stage together from one side.
So Beulah took Buster around to
the left and I had Billy on the
right, where they could see each
other across the stage. And while
the father and mother were doing
the tango we started the kids out
on their artistic career.
When they toddled out in front
of the footlights there was a great
hush fell on the audience, then a
roar of delight went up that shook
the star-spangled dome.
1t stopped the tango. and near
ly busted the show. But the ac-
tors were equal to the occasion.
Each grabbed up a kid and went
through the mad dance as never
before. The audience howled,

looked around, naturally, for
Billy.
But my question was antici-
pated. The mother said in
calm, subdued tone of voice:
Billy is dead. He caught pneu-
monia at Fort Worth. He was
sick only three days. We did not
miss a performance. The funeral
was in the morning. Everybody
on the bill came, and there were
about twenty actors or more
from the other theaters. The
manager offered to give US the
day off, but we were afraid that
it might break in on his pro-
gram-business wasn't very good,
anyway. So we played just the
same.

there in the cemetery. The mon

But before I parted with my

that Billy was her own sure

most her last breath had given
the baby boy into her sisters

n sas City, I divided headliner
honors with Beulah Poyn-
ter. I occupied the eighth spot
in a ten-act program, not count
ing the moving pictures, which
were used as a chaser.
Number seven was taken by a
black-face act. There was a man
and his wife and a helper The
wife made up as an Octoroon,
dressing her part with exquisite
grace. She sang, danced and add
ed a becoming dash of polite COM
edy to the bill.
I noticed that the lady, off the
stage, was dressed in mourning.
It took me about two days to cou-
pie her with the swell, smashing,
dashing, dancing girl that I met
when went up the stairway and
waited for my entrance music.
This woman was, say, twenty
eight. When her makeup was
washed off there was just trace
of care on her fine face. She
was motherly, gentle, intelligent
modest.
Billy and Buster.
And the funny part was that
she had two little boys-babies,
in fact-one aged two and the
other not much older. One they
called Billy and the other was
Buster
When the mother went on she
left the babies in the care of an
OF black nanny, a sure enough
colored person, otherwise those
babies would have crawled up
stairs ad waddled out on the stage
and performed a little act of their
own.
But it was not long before there
were volunteer nurses, for Beu-
Ian, one afternoon at the matinee,
held Buster in her motherly arms
and l did as much for Billy.
Then it was that Beulah had a
big thought come TO her all at
once out of the sky-blue painted
ceiling of that wonderful Garden
Theater, where the stars twinkle
even at the matinees.
Here is the plot-and Beulah
nearly fell over herself with gig
glesome glee as she tried to ex-
plain the idea to me. Here it is:
We would send the nurse out on
an errand, while the act went on,
Beulah and I would black up the
TWO llIJIe hiuS anu sehu tneIH out
on the stage as the "Pickaninny
Twins"
SO that night we corralled the
kids in my dressing room as soon
as the father and mother and the
artistic helper had gone upstairs,
and we surely got busy backing
up those youngsters. The babies
entered into the joy of the thing
with histrionic abandon.

Members OF Old Kenosha
Whist Club Gather at the
Home of F. w. Reinold.
PLANNING new ORGANIZATION

Members Of the Kenosha Whist Club
the oldest of the organizations among
the men of the city, met for their
annual reunion on Tuesday night when
sixteen of the survivors of the old
club were entertained by 2. w. Rel
mold. It was not voluntary enter
tainment on the part of Mr.. Reinold,
but the very pleasant evening was
arranged by his wife as an observance
of his birthday anniversary and al
though completely surprised Mr.. Rel
mold entered into the spirit of the
evening with such hospitality that the
gathering proved one of the Most
pleasant ever held by the club
members
During the evening plans were dis
cussed for the organization of the club
on wider scale and the opening of
club rooms in the down town district,
For years the club has limited its meet
ing to occasional gatherings at the
homes of members and has made no
effort to break the bonds of exclusive
ness and admit new members. Many
whist players in the city have ex-
pressed willingness to join in new
club with the old club as a nucleus
and it II probable that some move will
be. taken to work out such a plan be-
fore the close of the winter.
Before supper was served the mem
bers of the club had the regular four
table game Of club whist with Frantz
and Brown winning high score among
the north and south players and Sui
Ivan and Robinson winning the east
and west trophy.
The score of the game follows:

WAVES EXTRACTION RIGHTS
italian is Charged With Having At
tempted to Kill His Wife at Their
Home in Chicago in November. Had
Been Employed in Kenosha Factory

Stanley Conforti, aged IS years of
age, an Italian, wanted IN Chicago on
charges of attempting to mdrder his
wife, Anna Conforti last November,
was arrested just before noon today as
he left the plant of the Chicago Brass
Company, where he had been employed
for several weeks. Conforti was tax
en- into custody by Grief of Police
.O'Hare and Detective Lombardo of the
Chicago detective force. The Italian
made no effort to deny bis identity
and asked the officers to accompany
him to his boarding house where he
secured his clothes and other personal
effects. He informed the detective
that he would waive rights of extradi-
.tion papers and he went back to CHI
cago this afternoon to face the charges
against him. Accompanying the detec-
tive to Kenosha was a sister of the
wife of Conforti and she at once iden-
titled the man when he was brought
to the police station. Conforti him
self refused to, discuss the connection
he had with the shooting OF the wife
and in fact was unwilling to talk to
either the detective or men at the Jail.
For the past eight weeks the detec-
tives have been searching Chicago Tor
Conforti The crime for which he was
arrested was committed at the Con
forti home, 1897 Albin avenue, last
November. Confetti and his wife had
trouble and after ne had left the house
two shots were fred through the front
window of the house One of them
struck the woman in the right arm and
she is now in a Chicago hospital suf-
fering from the injuries. 1t is said
that she will recover. Conforti had
not been seen in this neighborhood
since the night of the shooting and it
is supposed that he left Chicago on
that night and found refuge in Ke-
nosha. The first clew to his where
abouts was discovered when the police
of Chicago managed to get hold of a
letter which had been sent from Ke-
nosha to friends of Conforti in
Chicago.
Lombardo and the sister of the in
jured woman reached Kenosha early
this morning and with Chief O'Hare
they went to the boarding house
where Conforti had received his mail.
No one at the house seemed to know
the man, but it was discovered that
one mysterious boarder at the place
was working at the brass mills and the
chief and his visitors went TO the mill
and discovered Conforti at work. He
continued his work until the noon
hour when he surrendered to the chief.
1t said that Conforti is in no way re-
lated TO Alderman Albert Conforti and
other members of the family by the
same name in Kenosha.
The man had not resided in Keno
sha previous to the shooting and he
seems to have come here with the sole
intention of concealing himself from
the Chicago police officers.

SECOND PAPERS IN DEMAND
CLERK of the Circuit Court B. NJ. De
Diemar in Annual Report Shows That
Many Were Admitted to Citizenship.
Office is Self Sustaining.

A new record was established in the
office Of the clerk of the circuit court
along naturalization lines during the
year 1912 as the report of Clerk De-
Deimar which has been filed with the
county clerk, shows that the fees re-
ceived for naturalization during the
year just closed made the largest total
in the history Of the county.
It is a remarkable fact that while
there was falling off in the number
Of first papers issued there was de-
cided increase in the number Of sec
ond papers. In years gone by the
county was accustomed to have as
many as six hundred applicants for
first papers in single year, but the
report for the year just closed shows
that there were but two hundred and
eight first papers issued. In former
years there was a decidedly small
number Of second papers issued, but
during 1912 the second papers reached
the high mark Of one hundred and
sixty-three, this being considerable
more than half the number that had
been issued since the new federal law
went into effect in 1906. The great
rush for second papers was due to the
new election law which went into eff
feet on December LIST. It is expected
that the number of second papers is
sued in the coming year will be nearly
double the number issued last year.
At the first hearing set for February
more than fifty petitions for second
papers will be heard. The aliens will
not appreciate the working Of the law
demanding second papers for voters
until the election is held in April and
then it is expected that there will be
a great rush for second papers. Nat
uralization fees in the county during
the year amounted to $3.50 and one
half of this is left in the county treas
ury, the remainder going to the of
fcials at Washington.
Tt is expected that the year will
bring also an increase in the number
of first papers as the various organiza-
tions among the aliens are bending
every energy to have their members
get full citizenship in order that they
may participate in political campaigns
in the city and county. Nothing has
attracted more notice among the alien
population and many Of the leaders
are spending their own money to Sc
cure instruction for fellow country
men in order that they may partici-
pate in the government.
The report of the clerk of the cir
cult court shows a total receipts of
81, 345.80 and the office was just about
self sustaining during the year. The
detail Of the report shows:
Receipts.

DALTON ON REVIEW BOARD.
State Tax Commission Names Kenosha
Assessor to Aid in Racine Tangle.


Assessor to Aid in Racine Tangle.
Joseph E. Dalton, assessor of in
comes for Kenosha county, has been
named by the Wisconsin State Tax
Commission as one of the members of
the board of review to sit in Racine
for readjustment of valuations Of
property in that city The new as
.sessment has been made under the aus
pieces of the state tax conn ission and
the amount is just about double the
former assessment. Other members of
the board are j. II. Leenhouts, deputy
assessor of incomes for Milwaukee
county, and Louis Mogensen, a well
known real estate man in Racine. The
board held its first meeting on Tues
day evening and it will be in session
for the next three weeks. The Racine
tax payers will pay taxes now under
the old valuation and later they will be
forced to make supplemental payments.
1t is expected that there will be many
protests against the assessment as
made by the state.
