ACTORS INJURED
IN FALL ON
STAGE
MRS. EARL Meet URE .FAiNTs AND
DROPS SEVENTEEN FEET
TO THE FLOOR

Kansas City, Dec. 15.-Mrs. Earl
Mcclure, vaudeville performer, was
balanced on the shoulders of her hus-
ban, IL feet above the stage floor, in
the finale of their equilibrist act at
the Empress theater yesterday after
noon when Mrs. Mcclure tainted. she
fell backward Her husband fell too
She struck on her back and was made
unconscious. Mcclure landed on his
feet, standing, but was struck on the
head by heavy chair that was used
in the trick.
Mrs. Mcclure suffered concussion
of the brain with possible fracture
of the skull and injuries to her back.
Dr. Emanuel Manko, the physician
who was called, said last night he
did not believe Mrs. Mcclure would
die, but that she was dangerously in
jured. Mcclure was bruised about the
head and body and the tendons of
both ankles were strained so severely
that he will be unable to appear on
the stage for several months.
The finale of the Mcclure act was
thriller" On a pedestal higher
than a mans head, the husband bal
anced himself on two chairs. placed
one above another Then Mrs. Nc
Clure climbed on his shoulders and
went through a juggling act with
three two-pound Indian clubs.
For two years the McClures have
ended their act with it and not once
did they have the slightest trouble in
completing it. But yesterday Mrs.
Mcclure was i'll and faint when she
went on the stage. It is law of vau-
deville that. regardless of the health
of the performers, an act that is bill
led must be played. oNthing must
prevent it.
Suddenly everything went black" "
Mrs. Mcclure said at the Hotel Ed
ward three hours later. She had re-
gained consciousness only a few min
'utes before 81 can't remember any
thing that happened"
The curtain was rung down imme-
diately after she fell and two black
face comedians ran out on the front
of the stage to commence song and
dance. Few persons in the audience
knew that the woman had even been
injured--the show continued without
a halt

A CLOSED SEASON
ON BEAR is
PLANNED
STATE GAME WARDEN SAYS A
FEW BRUINS SHOULD BE
SPARED FOR SCENERY

Santa Fe, N. M, Dec 15.-The re-
ceipts of the state game and fish war
den's Office in the fiscal year ending
November 80, last, increased to the
extent Of $1,53S67, compared with the
preceding fiscal year. The figures for
the two fiscal years have been conf
pleted by State Warden Trinidad G..
de Baca, and will appear in the report
that he will submit to Governor Nc
Donald and the state legislature.
At the beginning Of the fiscy,ii year
1918 the state game and fish warden's
office had a balance of $4,049.O7. The
receipts during the year amounted to
$S,571.S4 and the disbursements to
$6,690.5S, leaving balance OF $5,
s92.s8. The receipts during the fiscal
year 1914 were $10,11O.51, and the dis
bursements $S,795515, leaving bal
ance on December I, last of $7,zOS.24
AS the game and fish licenses are
reported by calendar and not by fis-
cal years, the figures for 1914 are not
yet complete. Those for 1918 follow.
Big game ($100 fee), 1912; bird
(s1.OO,) 27s4; general ($1.5O), 41S7:
nonresident hunting $1,000, 114;
nonresident fishing ($1OO), 1885,
The licenses so far reported for 1914
include 91S big game, 1918 bird, 3217
general, rs nonresident hunting and
20S nonresident fishing
| The returns shown from licenses
are exclusive of the commissions paid
deputy game and fish wardens. The
total for the last fiscal year is the
largest of any year since the license
law was passed.
Among a number of important rec
concentrations in the report of Mr. de
Baca is one for a closed season on
bear. He says:
7 do not believe that the bear is de-
structive to stock interests to the ex-
tent Of being menace. In some
states he is protected and can see
no reason why he should not be al

WARDEN LOOKS INTO TECHNICAL
SIDE OF SHOOTING DOWN
BIG GAME

Santa Fe, N. NJ, Dec. 15.--Can a
man, carrying gun in the mountains
and failing to have hunting license
IN his possession. who shoots and
kills a companion, mistaking him for
a deer, according to his declaration,
be prosecuted for hunting without le-
gal authority?
This is question-by far the most
sensational with which he has had to
deal-that State Game Warden Trini-
dad de Baca found confronting him
when he opened his mail this morn
ing.
The question was propounded by
Thomas w. Henley, deputy game war
den at Nogal. Lincoln county, and his
letter contains recital of the killing
OF Wilder Zumwalt by Harry Little.
1t reads:
Il am somewhat at loss as to my
duty in a certain case in this county.
It is this: Two parties are out hunt
ing and trailing deer. One of them
a Mr.. Wilder Zumwalt, drops behind
his partner. Mr. Harry Little. and
being the youngest as well as the
best mountain climber, gets around
Little and stops on the steep mountain
side, waiting for Little to run the deel
so he could kill it ESQ it appears from
his tracks in the SNOWY Mr.. Little
when he came to an opening in the
timber, looked ahead, saw Zumwalt
sitting on the mountain side, mistool
him for deer, and shot and broke
his neck, killing him instantly. Nov
should he be fined for hunting out o.
season? So far as l can find out, he
mas had no license to hunt this year
The letter was written last Satur
day, but the date Of the killing of Zum
walt is not mentioned. Mr.. de Baca
holds that there Is clear case against
Little for violation Of the game laws,
and that the extent Of the penalty alone
Is in question, due to the lack Of in
formation as to the exact date of the
bunting tragedy. He sums up the
matter in this way:
Tittle's admission that he was hunt
ing deer constitutes the only possible
explanation of the killing of Zumwalt.
The deer eeason closes November
|, and II the tragedy occurred after
shat date Little il liable to prosecu-
Aion for hunting deer out Of season, as
well as for hunting without the nee
essary license.
Mr. de Baca win send letter CON
xaining these opinions to the Nogal
deputy The fact that Henley asks il
he should be fined for hunting out Of
season" leads him to believe that the

LONGER NAVY TRAINING

Newport, r l., Dec. 15-Beginning
today the period Of instruction for ap-
prentice seamen in the United States
navy is extended to six months. The
new order of the navy department
cancels the four months training
period, which was deemed by naval
experts totally insufficient for the
men to become proficient in the sew
eral branches of their work. The new
order will increase the number of
men permanently stationed here from
