MINERS

The Winning Widows" the at
traction appearing at Miners Empire
Theatre this week, won the hearty
applause of the audience at that play
house yesterday. Max Spiegefs new
show is up to his usual standard of
burlesque offerings and pleased the
audience immensely.
1t is one long laugh from start to
finish. When the comedians are not
"cutting-up' the audiences eyes are
centred on q stage full of pretty
young women who can both dance
and sing well. There are some ex-
tremely good voices and the chorus
work is pleasing.
The principle comedian, for there
are several very good laugh-makers,
is Ben Holmes, author Of the story.
His able assistants are Mark Hart
and Neil Burns. They contribute much
fun to the show, which, balanced by
the good music and dancing, helps
to bring the bill up to high stand
ard
The company includes forty per-
sons Miss Mae Rose, Leona Fox
and Emily Bremen are the leading
feminine figures. The scenery is new
and so is the costuming. The offer
ing is In two acts and four scenes.
Next week-The Watson Sisters and
company.

PARAMOUNT

Maclyn Arbuclle, appearing as a
silent actor in the five-reel photoplay
'The County Chairman" at the Para
mount Theatre this week, completely
captured his audiences at yesterday
performances and secured q splendid
run for the feature this week.
Arbuckle is the same old Arbuckle
who took the part of the chairman in
the play when it toured this country
with such great success some years
ago, and the revival of Mr.. Savage's
masterpiece in photoplay form will
be witnessed by thousands all over
the country once more.
1t is the first picture in which Ar
buckle has ever appeared, and he has
made the most of it. The Pathe
Daily at the theatre this week is one
of extreme interest. A comedy
drama. and one of the most beautiful
scenic pictures ever made, complete
the picture booking. The latter pic
ture, Beautiful Lake Dahl in India,
is in colors and shows that mag
nificent country at its best.
The singers this week are Helena
Alberts, soprano of the Century Opera
Company, and Gilbert Wilson, basso,
also of the Century. Both singers
we're enthusiastically received last
night. Mae Sutton, the popular
singer, will return to the Paramount
next week for a return engagement.
The picture next week will be

BURLESQUE THEIR
KEENEY'S

Moving pictures of the recent Holy
Name parade furnish only one of
many big magnets which are attract
ing large crowds to Keeney's the first
part of this week. An exceptionally
well-balanced bill was witnessed by
capacity houses at all three perform
ances yesterday. Every number is a
gem and the acts are so cleverly set
as to make a most pleasing piece of
artistic work when taken collectively.
There is something for everybody of
every age and OF every walk of life.
The pictures of the Holy Name
demonstration show a large portion
of the procession and include the cere-
monies which took place at the cathe-
dral grounds.
sldt entitled "A Controversy Be-
tween Eight and Nine" is of unusual
merit and was we'll received by the
audiences yesterday. 1t deals with
the situation brought about by the
unexpected return of a husband, who
finds his wife telephoning to another
man. 1t ends, however, in Feooncil-
iation, after some exceptionally dra-
matte moments.
Ned Nestor and his nine sweethearts
are charming singers, and Nestor was
encored with thunderous applause for
his clever work in singing "Sleep,
Baby, Sleep" Another number is a
humorous concoction entitled "A Con-
troversy on Business and Love- pre-
sented ably by Forbes, Sterling and
company. Rudolphis introduces the
finer points of the violin touch. His
selections were of the classic varieties.
The American Comedy Four lived
up to its reputation. The quartet at
fords laughter from the very start and
receive additional applause for their
ability as vocalists.
Staine's Comedy Circus is real en-
tertaining animal act. 1t was partic-
ularly enjoyed by the young folk. A
pair of other good vaudeville acts are
Houseley and Nichols and the Three
Allaines. besides the complete change

One of the best novelties seen at the
Lyric In long while Is La Petite
Revue" the headline act during the
first three days of this week. It intro
duces some extremely novel creations
in both scene and song, and employs
company Of eight people. It is a
rare offering for young and old.
Louise Eschall and Elmer Booth,
principals with such well known sue
cesses as stop Thief" and other
Broadway hits, made their vaudeville
debut at the Lyric yesterday, and 1t
was an effective one. They appear
In q delightful bit of satire called
TOO Many Hats" Their supporting
cast is a clever one, and on the whole
the offering is a hit.
Dan Leighton and his company also
scored with a sketch, more on the
scenic order, styled via Empress"
1t is a lively comedy playlet that COM
bines some big scenes as well as ex-
citing moments.
Brown and Newman in an extreme
ly witty musical comedy skit had
little trouble In Handing" and the
audience could hardly get enough OF
them. They are an extraordinary pair
of funsters with refreshingly
original line of songs and humor.
Youana, an Oriental juggler who
mixes mysticism with his feats, many
of them quite remarkable: William
Sisto, a delineator of Italian char
acter, in humorous offering called,
Ills First Speech" and the Countess
Nardini, a musical artist of eXoep-
tional talent, are among others who
helped make the bill particularly
worth while.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20.--There is
to be fine, large, fresh row on be-
tween the suffragists and the ants.
AS a result of it, Mrs. o. ID. Oliphant,
OF Trenton. N. j., now on the stump
in Montana, has brought suit for
$50, 900 against a Montana newspaper,
alleging that she has been libeled by
the publication of suffragist poem
which accuses her of being a traitor
to- all the race holds just and good"
an ally of the white slave trade, a
supporter of the whiskey interests
and a partner of procurers."
Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge. Of New
York, president of the National As
ISOLATION Opposed to Woman Suf-
frage, announced here today that the
offensive poem was published Octo-
Der IL and dedicated to Mrs. Oliphant.
Mrs. Oliphant, who has been an
active anti-suffrage worker and CAM
paigner for three years, Is general
secretary of the New Jersey State
Association. She has been speaking
against suffrage in North Dakota and
Montana for the last month, follow
ing the route taken by DR.. Anna
Howard Shaw, president of the Ma
tlonal American Woman Suffrage
Association.
"Antis" Have Been Patient.
"For many years we have endured
attacks from the suffraglsts, either
stating or suggesting that we are
affiliated or cooperating with the
liquor interests and the vice in
terests," said Mrs. Dodge. "Suffra-
gists have stated publicly that these
accusations must have been true or
we would have instituted lawsuits.
Our policy is against the publicity
resulting from such action and we
have been patient under their at
tacks, knowing that the general pub
lie did not believe them to be true.
There comes time when patience
ceases to be virtue
"The state of mind which induced
the author to write the offending
lines has been created by the inslnua-
lions of prominent suffragists, and
they are really to blame for 1t.
"Since organized opposition to wom-
an suffrage first began in California
vicious attacks have been made. II
was then said that $250,000 was being
used by the liquor interests In Cali
fornia to defeat suffrage. The presi-
dent of tho California association de-
MED that money was being spent by
his organization, which was divided
on the subject of equal suffrage.
"In the Ohio campaign 1t was al
legged that the same sum was being

MAJESTIC

Heading a splendid eight-act bill at
the Majestic during the first part OF
this week is Thompson's elephants
The huge beasts perform all sorts OF
feats, including an imitation of the
latest dance steps. 1t is an animal
act that is out of the ordinary.
Appearing on the bill is Miss Daisy
Allen. a local young woman, who
sings her way into the good graces
of the audience. She is one of the
features of the program. New songs
are we'll sung by the Tenney Sisters,
two charming condolences. They are
seen at the Majestic this week for the
first time in this city.
A good dancing, singing and talking
turn is offered by Billy Shaw and the
Shaw Sisters. Cooper and May are
clever dancers. A unique act is that
of "wilbur, the Mad Juggler." Two
other pleasing acts conclude the bill.
with six reels of good moving pictures.

DOMESTIC TRIALS SHOWN AT THE
ORPHEUM IN "HER OWN MONEY"

young couple have been separated
for year and have a chance to think
things over and view them In Their
right proportion. So you can hardly
blame them when Lewis comes to the
garden gate q year or so later, and,
hat In hand, begs Mary's forgiveness
and she rushes to his arms. We
wouldn't like 1t If 1t turned out any
other way.
Romance and money mix well to-
gether, but you've got to have enough
of the money TO make the mixture
palatable. Take the Beechers, neigh
bors of Mr.. and Mrs. Alden and chief
disturbers In the Alden family quar-
rel. If Beecher could have met his
wife's demands for money every time
she asked they might have been
happy. Or. if she had paid her bills
when and as she should instead of
knocking down" and falsifying her
domestic accounts there might have
been fewer discords in their harmony
of happiness.
Mildred Carr Mary Alden's sister,
observed all these things, and when
Tommy Hazelton asked for her hand
and heart, she asked about his peck
etbook and prospects and limited that
he and she get together on some sort
of an agreement about financing their
marital partnership.
When Tommy couldn't see the point
she deferred her answer and held him
up until Lewis and Mary made up,
as we said before, at the garden gate.
Then she consented, so there was a
doubly happy ending.
Charles Dingle plays the part of
Lewis Alden. tho business man, and
Miss Nelson, his wife. Miss 1sadore
Martin assumes the role of Mildred
Carr. Tommy Hazelton, her fance,
is, off the stage. Edward Van Sloane.
The Beechers are Charles Schofield
and Helen Courtney. Lena Kennedy
takes the part of Rhoda, a colored
maid. It's a small cast, but very we'll
selected.
Here's a little tip to the wives who
find trouble in extracting the neces-
sary currency from their husbands:
Take him to see Her own Money"
And here's one for the husbands
whose wives are always crying that
they don't get enough: Take her to
the Orpheum this week.
It's a poor rule that won't work
both ways, and this one is no excep-
ton.

STRAND

Rarely is so beautiful and interest
ing photodrama shown as that in

reel film by Augutus Thomas.
1t depicts the life Of diva who, be-
ginning as destitute girl, reaches

Woven into her career are romance,
love and tragedy; and not an instant
is the spectators attention or interest
In the picture allowed to flag
Another interesting picture, in ad-
dition to the Pathe News movies and
other films, is entitled Love and
Baseball" 1t features Christie Ma

What Was Henry Hahn
Afraid Of? Asks Green

About 400 gathered in New Union
Hall. of 161 Springfield avenue. last
night, and paid ten cents each to hear
a debate on "Republicanism vs.. So
cialism" between Henry Hahn. the
Republican candidate for alderman
from the Third ward and Henry
Green, the Socialist candidate for the
same office.
Hahn did not show up and after
quite q wait, Green started his arg l.
ment with a denunciation of his OPP
ponent. Hahn said he would come
here and debate but he is not here, y
said Green isn't that as good line
on the man as you need. He could
not have been afraid of me. I'm not
an alumni of neutrality-suspicious. O high
school nor a grammar school
1T couldn't have been fear for me
that kept him away. He was afraid
of something else. He could not an
swer the arguments. That's what
kept him away. Either that or he
didn't intend to come from the start
Anyhow, II gives us a good line or
him. He didn't keep his word to dc
what he said he would do right In
his own ward. Would he do what he
would promise to do at City Hall oui
of your sight?"
The applause which greeted Green's
denunciation of his Republican oppon.
ent seemed to indicate that II was
his audience from the start.

Up Against It." brand new farce
by a brand-new author, was presented
at tho Newark Theatre last night be
fore mildly interested audience.
William Eville the author. had an
excellent idea when he sat himself
down to write this Offering. woman
found a telegram addressed to her
husband. 1t was from a man named
Lillywhite, Immediately, as any WON
an would, she deducted that it was
from a creature called Lily White
in his role of Lotharlo. Lillywhite was
loan broker, who had promised to
loan the husband money on his furni-
ture, and to send his secretary, a
young woman, to make an inventory
When the husband left a bachelor
friend in his apartment to receive the
young woman, and the friend en-
countered the husbands wife and as
sumed that she was the secretary

But farce must be backed by more
than an idea, II II Is to effectively get

extremely funny: occasionally a brill
liant line would send a ripple of APP
probation over the audience; but be-
tween the funny happenings and the
brilliant lines were dreary waits when
the action became labored and every
thing fell fiat.
up Against 1t" needs considerable
whipping into shape 1t needs more
than a whipping; 1t needs a beating
There is no Goodies to make one
forget the flaws, as happened in "A
Pair OF Skies"
If there are brilliant lines, there are
also others, time-worn others, which
will need lashes OF their own when
the whipping into shape begins. For
instance, 1t isn't fair to make us
listen to lines like:
why don't you look where you're
golng?"
well, why don't you go where
you're looking?"
Shem and Ham must have been the
first pair to exchange this particular
bit of repartee when they bumped into
each other on the gangway of the
ark, unless Adam and Eve grouchily
pronounced ii on their hasty exit
from the garden. And there werS
others as ancient However, they
served purpose. They gave the gooC

Here is the plot in brief;
Robert Hardy, being up to his eyes
in debt, borrows on his furniture

above. His wife sees the telegram
Hardy doesn't want her to know thai
the secretary is coming to the hous,
to make an inventory, so persuade:

to remove all of her jewels. Fright
