THEATRES PLACE
NEWSPAPER FIRST
Manager of Chicago House Tells
Why the Billboard Is
Thing of the Past.

Chicago, Ill, June 5.-Billposter ad
vertising cannot compete with news
paper advertising This statement yes
terday supplemented the announce
ment by ]. d. Garrity, manager OF the
Garrick theatre, that during the en-
gagement of Olga Petrova in Pan
thea" at the Garrick, beginning Sun
day, publicity will be sought only
through the newspapers.
"Billboards usually are most numer-
Gus where the persons who read are
the fewer" said Mr.. Garrity in ex-
planning his stand. MANY managers
believe that the billboard as a getter
of patronage is thing of the past, but
few of them have the courage to stand
by their convictions. The Schuberts
tried out exclusive newspaper adver-
tising in New York year ago with
gratifying results and this caused the
experiment in Chicago.
You know that persons who ride
past billboards are usually going too
fast to read them and 90 per cent of
the folks who ride read the newspa-
pers while on the cars.
During the last year, with 'Ro-
nance and the Road to Happiness
two of our biggest successes, the Gar
rick and the Princess advertised ex-
ciusively in the newspapers. A spe
cial matinee, advertised for three days
in the newspapers, was sold out by 10
o'clock On the morning of the perform
ance and 900 persons were turned
away.
when u. J. Hermann brought the
Modern Girl to the Cort he protested
that we did not allow him enough
paper on the billboards. Three weeks
later he said his billboardless show
had the best opening in Chicago that
it had experienced ON the road.
The cost of lithographing - six
cents sheet, not counting
the paper, mounts into big figures
when three or four thousand sheets
are put out. We intend to advertise
more and more in the newspapers and
less on the boards.
"The Palace, the Majestic and the
burlesque houses abandoned the bill
boards a year ago and the legitimate
houses are coming rapidly to the sense
OF the experiment.

Naval Academy Graduates
Are Told Nations Posi-
tion in Mexico.
IN A HUMANE SERVICE
Believes People of Vera Cruz
Will Change Their Opin-
ion of Americans.

Annapolis, Md, June 5.-President
Wilson today told 154 graduates of the
naval academy, many of whom viii
leave shortly for Mexican waters. that
the mission of the United States is one
of service to humanity, not OF ag-
grandilement. nor conquest. He later
delivered diplomas to the young mid
shipmen.
The president declared that It was
the duty of the United States to serve
the world. Speaking of the Vera Cruz
situation, the president reverently de-
cIared: 81 pray God the boys will not
have to fight any more" and added
that the real good they will do will be
their impression on Mexicans. -
"They are not strutting or bluster-
ing" he went on. THE people of Vera
Cruz, who despised and hated Ameri-
cans, will think differently when our
boys leave"
The president spoke in the huge
armory, which was packed with more
than five thousand officers and mid
shipment and relatives and friends of
the graduates. He was enthusiastically
ly cheered.
The yacht Mayfower, on which the
president, Secretary Daniels and party
arrived this morning, was saluted by
the battleships Illinois, Idaho and Mis-
souri, and shore batteries. A bad wind
and rain storm made the going of the
Mayfiower difficult during the night,
but there was no serious trouble. At
2 this morning on the Mayf1ower the
president received a long wireless
message from the American delegates
at Niagara Falls. He refused to dis
cuss its contents.
Tampico Situation Still Annoys.
Washington, d. c., June 5.-The sit.
uation confronting Washington with
reference to shipments of arms to
constitutionalistS at Tampico con-
tinued today the absorbing subject of
deliberation in official quarters. Secre-,
tary Bryan reiterated that Tampicoi
was still held as an open port, not
that several ships are en-
route there with arms for the consti-
tutionalists.
Admiral Howard reported fighting
about Mazatlan continues, and the
federal fortifications badly damaged.
Reports of forced loans continue.
Vice Consul Silliman of Saltillo con.
ferred with Secretary Bryan and John
Lind today. Silliman confirmed re-
ports that the federals compelled him
to open the consular safe and took the
state department code and valuables.
He was in jail 21 days, but was not
taken before firing squad, as had
been reported.

Daughter of Lady BIom-
field Causes Sensation
at English Palace.
HURLS SELF AT THRONE
Hustled Cut of Room Before
She Is Able to Finish De-
livery of Message.

London. England, June 5.-Miss
Mary Blomfield, daughter of Lady
Bloomfield, widow of Sir Arthur Blom
field, was the woman who created the
sensational scene in buckingham pal.
ace last night, when she threw herself
on her knees before King George and
] Queen Mary.
Miss Bloomfield alone was concern
ed in the incident, although her sis
ter. who also attended the court, was
requested to leave the palace after the
occurrence. She left without protest.
Officials of the palace today are on
the verge of nervous prostration, and
are taking every precaution to pre-
vent a repetition of the performance
at tonigLt's function at the palace.
Miss Bloomfield had only time to
calculate audibly, your Majesty, for
Gods sake" when she was seized
and hustled out of the throne room.
King George was the coolest man in
the company.
The Women's Social and Political
union, militant, denies Tespo 1sibility
for the incident at Buckingham palace
last night.
Many of Churches Close.
In consequence of suffraget attacks
many churches in the country are be-
ing closed except for Sunday services,
public opinion is infiamed to a remark
able degree. There is well grounded
belief that much of the work of de-
-struction is being done by hired hands
well paid out of the bulging Golfers of
the Women's Social and Political
union. Much lucrative American tour
list business is being lost TO the Lon
don hotels and storekeepers because
of suffraget raids on museums and art
galleries.
Historic Church Burned.
Derby, England, June 5.-A historic
church at Breadsall, dating back to
Norman times and containing many
priceless relics, was destroyed by fire
during the night. Recently a suffraget
meeting at BreadsaIl was broken up by
boys. II is generally supposed the
women burned the church in revenge.

boards Of election from taking steps

dence az TO these districts" but held
that the fraudulent votes known 10
