The Revolt OF the Actors,

The actors have again rebeled and
threatened to strike just as II they were
bricklayers or members OF the Musical
Union. They are still struggling against
the injustice of managers who will pay
them only half salaries during Holy
Week and the holiday season. Then
they are dissatisfied with the ineauity
of their contracts, which are not always
to be enforced In the courts against
the managers who employ them.
These declarations of Independence
are not new. L. +. MACKAY headed
one Of them years ago. They accom-
pany every defensive union Of the man
ayers. 1t Is not certain that all the
actors are in favor OF them. Some OF
the powerful members of the profession
are unwilling to place themselves on a
level with the members OF trade
union. They hesitate, moreover, to bind
themselves to refuse or accept employ
ment in accordance with the directions
Of the society to which they belong.
SO the actors able To command their
own terms in the profession are rarely
In favor Of these organizations. They
prefer the liberty to do what Is most
advantageous to themselves. They want
TO sign the contracts which are for
their good they do not desire to sacri.
flee themselves for their colleagues who
may not be able to make the same con.
ditlons with their employers.

the members OF the profession ever to

THE LION.
A Tale That Docs Not Pretend to Teach
New Moral.


Once there lived in the Jungle q Lior
OF unusual Strength and Wisdom.
Elephant and Rhinoceros and Buffalc
and the other Wise and Sensible Beast.
recognized this Lions superiority. and
sought his Advice, and held his Counse
in Honor; and they agreed that he was
a Great Lion.
Likewise the other Beasts, Serpent
and Jackal and Skunk and the rest. &C.
knowledged the Lion as their leader
but they said. This Lion In more than
Lion; he cannot mako n Mistake; he
IL Incapable OF Error"
Because all the Beasts trusted and
confided in this Lion he had much more
10 do than he could attend 20 himself
therefore no was compelled to intrusi
much power to Other Beasts.
So far az Lion could he had Elephan,
! and Rhinoceros and Buffalo to help
him; but Elephant and Rhinoceros and
Buffalo had their own affairs TO look
after. and Lion had to get others to
| work for him.
Thus Serpent and Jackai and Skunk
occasionally were employed by Lion on
his business; and as Lion rewarded ade-
quately those who served him, and
trusted them completely, Serpent and
Jackal and Skunk grew Rich and
Powerful.
At last Lion died.
We have lost A Great Lion" said
Elephant and Rhlnoceros and Buffalo.
But Serpent and Jackal and skunk
were too busy Counting the Bones they
had accumulated In Lions service to
say much.
After Lions death Il turned out that
some OF the matters in which he had
been helped by Serpent and Jackal and
Skunk had done badly.
When this came to light Titmouse
and Ape and Postum set up loud OUT
cry. assaillng Lion. he being Dead, and
assailing him having thus become Rea-
sonably Safe.
Elephant and Rhinoceros and Buff
falo. whcp they heard this. said: 1--WE
always told you no was A Great Lion;
and A Great Lion he was"
But Serpent and Jackal and Skunk,
who, when he was alive, had said: HE
IL more than a Lion: he cannot make
Mistake: he Is Incapable OF Error"
Joined Titmouse and Ape and Postum
in attacking Lion after he was dead.
Lion was n Bully" said Serpent,
and would not Listen to My Advice
II always knew that Lion was
Mostly Wrong" said Jackal; 1T would
have told him so frequently but for an
impeachment In My Speech which was
cured only when Lion died"
Many times was about to show IN
Lion" said Skunk, but always Pre-
vious Engagements Interfered."
When Titmouse and Ape and Postum
heard what Serpent and Jackal and
skunk said about Lion. and remem-
bered that the Things That Went
Wrong were the things in which Ser
pent and Jacka and Skunk helped
Lion. they said: Surely Serpent and
Jackal and Skunk know what they are
Talking About; and no attention was
paid to Elephant and Rhinoceros and
Buffalo. who still said, Lion was A
Great Lion"

nave more than four delegates from the

overwhelming that Penrose was defeated

AFTER the nomination Senator Penross
predicted with solemn assurance that Taft
would be elected President, and that he
would carry Pennsylvania by the usual
Republican majority. As n matter OF fact
OF history, Taft carried only two States,
vermont and Utah. eight electoral votes
and the vote in Pennsylvania was Taft,

During the year 1918 Senator Penrose
made speechmaking tour OF the State
In favor OF a proposed loan OF $50, OOO, 900
to be used for the constructing of good
roads. He predicted with absolute GER
tainty that the loan amendment would be
carried by large majority. II was de-
feated by more than $4,000.
During the statewide primary contest
for Senator Mr.. Penrose predicted that he
would carry every county In the state
II seemed entirely safe for him to make
such prediction as he had the party
organization In every county working for
him. also a committee OF 100 manfactur-
ers and the entire liquor interests OF the
state supporting him. backed by a fabu-
lous sum OF money AS "A matter of fact
he lost fifteen counties and carried prob
ably ten others by less than 100 majority
over a candidate that did not have any
organization behind him.
