Shortly after the new administra-
ton came in, Sen. Hoke smith stop

one morning and said:
Henry. it's really too bad about
you going to lose your job. You've
been here a long time, and well all
miss you
"Oh. 1 isn't goin' t lose no job"

children and dogs in the neighoor-
hood Of the capitol as to who. is the
greatest man in public life, and
O'Hair would poll practically the en-

4 few days ago O'Hair came out OF
the house Office building carrying a
little satchel in his hand and headed
toward the railway station. In a Few
seconds it loOekd as if he were in the

pennies or picture cards, but that
would hardly account for all his
Pied-Piper popularity. 1t is simply
that O'Hair has a line of talk and a
smile that makes a hit with kids and
dogs. He seldom steps out or the
office building in the evening withou
setting an enthusiastic reception from
the juvenile part of the ~neighbor-
hood.

December a2 1919.

Sporting Editor Star Bulletin,
Sir: 1t has come to my notice that
a few of the fight fans of Schofeid
Barracks and the sporting editor OF
the Pacific Commercial Advertiser
have accused Bud Walters of being
cold footed for not fighting Carlin on
December %. Being a friend of Wal
ters and a fairsminded fight fan, /
feel 1t is my duty to put these men
straight in this matter - -. ! )
When the agreement was signed
Carlin agreed to fight Walters at 137
pounds ringside, the management was
to give so per cent. gross receipts,
winner Is per cent, loser 25 per cent.
Three days before the fight Walters
sent word to Carlin that he, Walters,
would like to know if Carlin could
come down to the required weight.
Carlin said no, he could not. Wal
ters went on training thinking CarIin
would make the weight on the date
set. Two days later, on Monday, De-
cemDer %, Walters saw Carlin in per-
son and asked him again If he could
make the required weight. Carlin said
no. he could not, and will not make
it to fight you. Walters answered, If
that Is the case j won't fight. The
management was present and heard
the conversation, and laughed about
it He knew and Carlin knew that
Walters would not fight but they con.
tinued their preparations for the, bout
After Carlin and Walters had held this
talk Walters stopped training and took
things easy, but Carlin kept up his
training, he thought Walters would
have to fight him. This Walters weuld
have done. had his manager allowed

clNcY FACING POSSIBILITY OF
GENERAL STRIKE

GENERAL STRIKE
Cincinnati, O., May 15.-This city
is facing a general strike of all trades
in sympathy with the street car men.
At several local union meetings the
proposition for a city-wide cessation
of work until the car companies
granted the demands of their en-
ployes were discussed. Several speak
ers advocated a general strike as the
only means of forcing the company
officials to terms. .. '.
A parade and mass meeting of TO-
600 union men will be held tomorrow
as a demonstration in favor of strik-
ing street car men. -. s
Several hundred more strike
breakers have been imported by the
car company, and trouble is feared if
an attempt is made to resume service
throughout the city with the strike
breakers.
THE TRAIL OF "cRIME TRUST"
The trail of the Crime trust" still
is trailing.
The Hon. Maclay Hoyne, states
attorney de facto, still is talking.
The Hearst news distoFters still are
catching high police officers, detec-
tives and higher-ups (nOne named) in
Hoyne's net, and telling horrific
things about the deadly white enVe-
lope fund"
Outside of that everything's pretty
much the same, and the goose hangs
high and there is no action to match
the talk being spilled.

and M. H. Lundberg, assistant cash

ADJUSTMENTS
The EmpreS SS


 A well balanced vaudeville bill of three acts opened the regular change night at the Empress last night. and were greeted by d large and apprecia- tive audience. Bird and Rem start the show with as neat a little comedy sketch as has visited Phoenix for some time Their jokes are new and they put them over in a manner truly re- freshing The work of the ''rube" from the audience was especially well re ceived. Eddie Roy offering a line of eccentric dancing gives truly a relief in the way of dancing acts and pres ents as classy a dancing act as one would want to see The Morales Trio of Gymnasts are by far the best attn letic act that has been seen for many moons The act is action from start to finish. There is not a lull in the entire performance. and their trapeze work is not only exceedingly diff cult but fast and offers many thrills. Baby Morales with her clever work at sonersauIting brought down the house. As usual the movies" proved the best to be seen in the city. The featr picture is a two reel Lubin, The End of the Quest" and tells a story full of heart interest. Aside from the very pleasing theme of the picture, the photographic work is very fine all the way through.

BERT LEVEY PAYS
 VISIT TO PHOENIX
Head of Vaudeville Circuit Calls On
 ManaGer Reeves

Bert Levey, head of the Bert Levey Circuit of Vaudeville theaters, whose acts have made the Coliseum famous for over four years, dropped into town yesterday on a business visit with Manager A. H. Reeves. The coming of MT. Levey at this time was actuated by a desire to look over the field personally, particularly because of the recent announcement that the Western Vaudeville Managers assOcia- tion was working to establish a com plete circuit across Arizona and up and down the coast.
 AS a result of his visit here MT. Levey has agreed with Manager Reeves that hereafter none but the best of the Levey attractions should be sent here and special attention will be paid in the future to the bookings for the Coliseum. MT. LeVey apprec- iates the advancement in Phoenix the past year or two and realizes that the capital of Arizona is a city no longer to be overlooked when sending out the best shows on the road.
