1. will enable him TO present to Pen
EacoIa playgoers Walker Whiteside,
probably the greatest of American
character actors, in The Typhoon," a
play that is declared to be the most
powerful dramatic work the American
stage has seen in more than twenty
years. Mr.. Whiteside is returning
east with his fine company after a
triumphal tour which has extended as
far northwest as Victoria, Vancouver
and Seattle, and his engagement Of
two weeks in San Francisco estab-
lished a new record for big business
at the splendid Cort theatre in that
city Mr. Whiteside will come to this
city on Monday, March 8, direct from
the Dauphine theatre in New Orleans
where he plays an engagement Of a
week. and local playgoers who wish to
inform themselves concerning the dis
tsnct merit of the star and company
will doubtless look to their favorite
New Orleans newspaper for the re-
views Of Mr. whiteside's performance.
Manager Smith is naturally elated In
having been able to secure Mr.. White
side and his sensationally successful
play to follow "Of1cer $685." another
novelty of the sterling sort, and antici
pates big business for both attractions.
THE really big shows are difficult to
get this season." said Mr.. Smith last
night. Awkward railroading and an
expensive side Jump for such attrac-
lions necessitates special train service.
In order to play his engagement in
Montgomery Mr. Whiteside viii have
to use a special train from here to
T-lofnaton. Mr. Whiteside and his
company viii play but six cities be-
tween New Orleans and Philadelphia,
and am certainly glad to have been
able to secure this attraction"
For no other reason than that of
recognition of distinct dramatic en-
deavoF. playgoers of Pensacola should
give to the coming OF Walker White
side and his fine company to this city
their special consideration. For many
years Mr.. Whiteside has been coming
to the south, always with plays worth
while and nothing unpleasant or un-
wholesome. In 'The Typhoon", his
vehicle this season, Mr.. Whiteside ap-
pears to have realized his fondest
hopes. His play has been declared
the most sensationally successful given
TO the stage in recent years, and his
portraiture of Tokeramo, the young

tions likely to live for all time. Mr.
Whiteside. while young in the matter
of years, is old in experience. He was
bold enough to have challenged the
criticism Of New York, when at the
age of 10 he appeared at the Union
Square theatre as Hamlet-at the very
age Shakespeare ascribed to his elusive
hero to have been. It was worthy of
remarks that one of the most authori-
tative critical writer's of that period
declared that the mantle Of Booth
would surely envelop Whiteside, and
it would appear that his prediction has
been verified. Surely no player may
be said to hold a firmer place in the
hearts and minds of theatregoers to-
day. And that Mr.. Whiteside has been
fortunate enough to have secured q
vital and compelling play his hosts Of
friends not only in the south, but
throughout the country. have reason
to rejoice. Mr.. whiteside is returning
eastward after a tour to the Pacific
coast that has been marked by a series
of ovations, and his business has estab-
lished new records at many cities
along this route It is worth while to
observe that he brings to this city the
identical production that in New York
and elsewhere has been declared the
last word in artistic stage embellish-
ment. and the same perfect company
of playrs that has CONSTRUCTED so
much to the overwhelming success of
'The Typhoon." Mr.. whiteside's en-

DON'T DOPE with
ALCOHOLIC "TONICS"

This is honest advice for you who

There are a lot Of so-caIled "tonics"
on the market that do not depend
for their shOrt-liVed popularity on any
real merit they possess, but upon the
fact that the alcohol in most of them
and the dangerous or habit-forming
drugs in some Of them give a few mo-

p even this effect ceases to take place,
and the unfortunate patient, worse off

thing else.

WOULD FORCE OLD
JUDGES TO RETIRE
Attorney General Suggests
President Be Given
Authority.

Washington, D. c., Dec. Federal
judges, with the exception of supreme
court justices, who refuse to retire IN
der the provisions of the law permit
ting them to do so should be removed by
the president Federal judges hold Of
flee during good behavior, but may re-
tire at 10 after 10 years service.
This is a feature OF the recommended
tons made by attorney general Nc
Reynolds, in his report TO congress to-
day.
Il suggest" says the attorney gen
eral, "an act providing that when any
judge below the supreme court fails
to avail himself of the privilege Of
retiring now granted by law, that the
president be required, with the advice
and consent of the senate, to appoint
another judge, who shall preside over
the affairs of the court and have pre-
cedence over the older one. This viii
insure at all times the presence of a
judge sufficiently active to discharge
promptly and adequately the duties Of
the court"
Mr.. McReynoIds suggests that clerks
o. United States courts should be ap-
pointed for specified terms and sub
ject to removal by the president for
cause and asks that provision be made
for a review by the supreme court OF
the now final decisions of the court
q customs appear, on applcaIlOu only

bill introduced by representative Clay
ton giving the supreme court power
to prOmulgate rules for trials on the
law side Of federal courts. He re-
minds congress also of needs Of
changes in his office and an increase
in the salaries paid. He terms the
present salaries moderate for the
character and amount of work to be
performed.

the attorney general was silent He
asked congress for no amendment 10
the Sherman act, the rod his Depart
ment uses to bring trusts to terms,
and he points out no fault in its Oper-
alton.
President Wilson, however, intends
to send a special message on the trust
question to congress in the near fu-
ture, and that undoubtedly viii en-
body some Of the attorney generals
views.
Attorney general 8IcReynOlds made
1t clear, however, that so long as he
was head of the department he would
oppose court DEGREES in antitrust suits
where the combination was dissolved
into parts under the control OF the
same stockholders. That plan, adopted
in the Standard Oil and tobacco cases,
he calls a fundamental defect ana
later adds in the same connection my
fixed purpose is to oppose any plan OF
dissolution which would leave the SEP
arate parts of the unlawful cOmbina-
ton under the control of the same
set of men"
Coming to a review OF the events
with which his department has been
concerned for the fiscal year, the at
tOrney general shows that when he
took office 80 cases were pending I'M
der the Sherman law, and that since
March +, eight cases have been begun

law has been violated pour into the

Tn many instances" the report
reads the investigation has failed to
disclose facts which would justify the
institution of formal proceedings, but
notice of the activity Of the govern
ment has impelIed officers of large
and industrial corporations to curtal
dangerous tendencies. The bureau OF
investigation has looked into thous-
ands Of cases of all kinds. those con-
corning violations Of the Sherman law

eral says, has vigorously carried on

Out OF the S475, 600 allotted for the de-
lection and prosecution Of crime S175,-
600 has been set aside for that work
and the attorney general concludes
the department feels that very ma

ticularly during the past year, in sup
pressing the most vicious features OF
