HURRY To DISTRICTS
Underwood Lifts Docking"
Resolution and S0lOns
Rush Into Campaigns.
[RY LEASED WIRE.l

WASHINGTON, Oct. ia general
Exodus of house members was on to-
day following the repeal OF the Under
wood docking" system. Members are
losing no time in getting into their
campaigns for reelection.
A few days ago, the Democratic
leaders hoped to obtain an adjourn
ment at the end of this week. All
such plans have been abandoned and
the most optimistic forecast now is
for October "a.
When Majority Leader Underwood
moved the repeal OF the docking
resolution which provided reduction of
salaries of members for each day they
were absent, he explained that there
Is no more important legislation to put
through, but the war tax. There will
be no attempt at legislation in the
house from now on, but enough mem
bers will be kept in attendance to
make up a quorum to handle the war
tax conference report and transact
such other business as may be neces-
sary before adjournment.

Uncle Toms Cabin.

In many respects Kibble & Martins
"Uncle Toms Cabin" is the most i'm
portant OF the seasons productions. In
the first place it serves to exploit the
masterpieces Of two OF Europe's noted
artists, /. e., Ralph Brunt's elaborate
painting, entitled The Celestial City,"
and Hart Verion's picture Of the New
orleans slave mart; and secondly, it
has brought back into prominence the
memories of that grand old lady, Har-
riet Beecher Stowe. The Martin re-
Vival will be brought to the Gennett,
Monday, matinee and night. Matinee
st go.
OPENING TUESDAY MATINEE.
Owing to the fact the road show of
''Uncle Toms Cabin" has been booked
for Monday, the Frank Hawkins Play
ers will open Tuesday matinee in
stock at the Gennett.
The company has been rehearsing
here all week and already have made
a host of friends among the Richmond
people. Mr.. Hawkins guarantees the
patrons as good a show at popular
prices as they would have to pay $3.50
to see.
The little auburn haired leading lady
Miss Levin comes from the east
where she has enjoyed very successful
runs in stock companies in such cities
as Philadelphia, Detroit and Cleve-
land.
The entire case including Mr.. Rae
Muszar, Miss Meta Eyferth, Miss
Grace Hutchison, Mr.. Harry I. Walker,
Mr.. Pacie Ripple, Mr.. Richard Evans,
Mr.. Charles Unholtz and Mr.. Walter A
Bohme and Mr.. Frank Hawkins and
Miss Florence Levin will be seen to
great advantage in the first offering,
THE Girl From Out Yonder."

THE VALLEY OF FEAR

l have been reading short but clear and
interesting account of the old building, pur
chasable at the modest sum of one penny
from the local tobacconist."
Here Holmes drew small tract, embel-
lished with a rude engraving Of the an
cient manor house, from his waistcoat
pocket.
at immensely adds to the zest of an in
vestigation, my dear Mr.. Mac, when one is
in conscious sympathy with the historical
atmosphere of ones surroundings. Don't
look so impatient; for l assure you that
even so bald an account as this raises some
sort of picture of the past in ones mind
Permit me to give you sample. Erected
in the fifth year of the reign of James I,
and standing upon the site of a much older
building, the Manor House of Birlstone pre-
sents one of the finest surviving examples
of the moated Jacobean residence"
"You are making fools of us, Mr.. Holiness"
@Tut, tut, Mr.. Mac!-the first sign of
temper 1 have detected in you. Well, 1
won't read it verbatim, since you feel so
strongly upon the subject. But when tell
you that there is some account of the taking
of the place by a parliamentary Colonel in
1914, of the concealment of Charles for
several days in the course of the Civil War,
and finally of a visit there by the second
George, you will admit that there are vari-
Gus associations of interest connected with
this ancient house
II don't doubt it, Mr.. Holiness but that
is no business Of ours"
as it not? Is it not? Breadth of view,
my dear Mr.. Mac, is one of the essentials
of our profession. The interplay of ideas
and the oblique uses of knowledge are often
of extraordinary interest. You will excuse
these remarks from one who, though mere
connoisseur of crime, is still rather older
and perhaps more experienced than your
self"
"I'm the first to admit that" said the de-
tective heartily. "You get to your point,
l admit; but you have such deuced round
the-corner way of doing it,
