Governor Lind was elected, the Repub-

the commission elective. The Repub-

ENTERTAINMENTS THEATRICAL GOSSIP
FoX's LYRIC THEATRE

Engaging three favorite stars of the Eleanor Cleveland Stock company to appear at FNox's Lyric this week as the stars of the Carnival Week bill seems to have been a happy thought on the part of Mir Fox judging by the enthusiasm manifested on the part of the former stock patrons. When the clientele of the Lyric see the two ex- cellent pIaylets presented by this capa- ble trio, Clifford Bruce, Edward Nan nery and Marie Grayber, there is every reason to believe that they will seek a return engagement for them at an early date. For the first half of the week they will present a melo- dramatic p1ayIet written by Mir. Bruce called ''Tl1e Turn of a Card which has one of the most sensational c1imaxes in latter day vaudeville. It is the story of the eternal triangle in 8 new phase. For the last half of the week the players will present it's local mining camp in Colorado. For the first half of the week MT. Fox has surrounded them with a. great quintet of star acts selected from Mir. Fsox's leading New York theatres in cIs4dfng Maude Alexander the vaude- vile EEelba, ftthe girl with the golden voice.

The four dances presented are entitled t"The Living Rose,'' 'sThe Spirit of Spring., '"rhe Volcano'' and The Silver Shower, g and they are seen in a riot of color which greatly enhances the impression made by the dances themselves.

Churches Seeking
 To Enroll Wilson's

Washington, March 10-Keen rivalry has sprung up among the Presbyterian churches of Washington over the of fort to enroll the membership of President and Mrs. Wilson during thelr four years stay in Washing ton. So keen is the con petition that the President has failed to make any announcement of his afiiliation. The same holds true in khe case of Vice. President and Mrs Marshall who are also Presbytcrians. The several con gregaticns engaged in the attempt to enroll the heads of the nation are the New York Avenue Church, the Church of The Covenant and the First Pres byterian Church. The first named, because of it's accessibility to the White House and the hotel in which the Vice-President has settled, is be- lieved to have g. better chance of win ming the race than have the others
