ADJUSTMENTS
THE LYRIC.

Joe Weber will bring to the Lyric
Theatre on Sunday, October "a, begin
ming an engagement OF one week, for
its first presentation here, the musical
comedy success. The Only Girl the
newest writing of Victor Herbert and
Henry Blossom. This musical comedy
is said to be one of the greatest Sue
cesses of the season.
Last year 1S7 theatrical productions
were made in New York. and out OF
this number it remained but for six OF
them to be distinguished with a popu-
larity that lasted for 300 nights OF
these six plays, two oi them were musi-
cal comedies and one OF these musical
comedies was The Only Girl first
produced at the Thirty-nnth Street
Theatre on November .; two weeks
later it was moved to the Lyric, where
there was much more room for the
musicians needed for Victor Herbert's
score, and also seats for Joe Weber's
paying guests. At the Lyric Theatre
the run of The Only Girl was con-
tinued, and lasted until the third week
in June.
The story of "1he Only Girl has for
its hero librettist. who is bachelor.
He has three bachelor friends. and they
meet to celebrate their bachelorhood.
The lbrettist processes to be woman
hater He considers that love is a
game by which nature jollies people
into popuatng the universe. One BY
one his three friends marry The libret-
tist is disconsolate: he is deserted.

The librettist invites his three friends
and their wives to dinner, but it is
never eaten. The three wives quarrel;
the three husbands champion their
brides One wife tells the second
wie-in strict conhdence-that the
third wife's lovely hair is dyed. The
second wife tells the third wife what
the first wife says. The three hus-
bands are called to adjust the quarrel.
1t gets beyond all bounds, and they all
go home leaving their host alone. In
this state OF mind he decides he is a fail
ure, and made a mistake in eliminating
sex in that compact with "Wilson,' be
cause he really loves her and she loves
him.
For its presentation in this city Joc
Weber has brought the entire cast
which includes Vida Bennett Grace

ALIEN LABOR LAW AT ISSUE.

Washington.-Attorney General Jones,
of Arizona, last week opened the fight
in the Supreme Court over constitution
ality of the Arizona alien labor law, by
filing a brief in support of the statute.
He contended that the very welfare and
preservation of the nation demanded that
only American citizens be employed in
the copper mines of Arizona. He re-
ferred to the use of copper as a war
material.
The Arizona law makes it a crime for
an employer of more than five workmen
to employ less than so per cent qualified
electors or native born citizens. The
case will be heard by the court next
month, and because of international
complications involved, promises to be
one of the most important to be decided
during the coming year. a lower court
held it unconstitutional.
Attorney General Jones declared that
the people of Arizona in enacting the
law by the initiative method were as
much within their right to protect their
safety and welfare as the legislature of
Pennsylvania in passing law, since held
constitutional, against the sale of fire
arms to alien residents.

GRAND.

AS departure from the regular line
of attractions, Manager John II. Havlin
of the Grand Opera House has booked
for next week what is, probably, the
greatest moving picture bill that has ever
been offered in Cincinnati. BY special
arrangement with the World Film Com
pany, he has secured "Salambo," $780,
G00.00 photo-Spectacle. and Salvation
Nel' as a double bill for his theater
during the week, commencing Monday,
October 25th. "Salambo' has been hailed
by the moving picture critics as one of
the greatest masterpieces of the day. 1t
took two years to complete it, and in the
making employed thousands of persons.
Some of the highest-saaried artists in
Europe were engaged to play the prin-
cipal roles. Being in general outline
somewhat on the order of "Cabria," it
is said to completely overshadow this
production, both in magnitude and in the
human element of its story. Salvation
Nell' is founded upon the well-known
play of Edward Sheldon, and was pre-
F'iske. 1t is said that as a motion picture
and that all of the vital points in this
great story are retained on the screen
Beatrice Micheena will be seen i'll the
leading role. Under the arrangement
made by Manager Havlin, the two pic
lures will be given twice daily during
the coming week. Seats will be reserved
in advance as usual, and the house or
chestra will be on hand at very per-
formance Mr.. Havlin believes that
"Salambo," with its six reels and Sal
walton Nell" with five reels, will furnish
an afternoons or an evenings entertain
ment which can not be surpassed
"Salambo" has not been seen outside OF
New York City.

the other as an attraction OF brilliant
worth.
The rest oi the bill is varied with
melody and heart-t -throbbng thrills.

UNION OPPONENTS CHECKED.

Chicago, Ill-"Hands off the Teach
ers' Federation is the command OF
Judge O'Connor to the Chicago Board
of Education.
The board recently passed an order
calling on all teachers to withdraw
from the federation and now the court
restraints the board from enforcing its
rule. AS matters stand at present the
teachers organization is in the same
position it was before the board called
on teachers to sign pledge that they
do not belong to the federation.
In his decision Judge O'Connor
quoted the State Supreme Court i'll its
rule that it was illegal for public
corporation to decide that only Union
workmen could be employed on school
building construction. On the same
theory, declared Judge O'Connor, the
school board has no right to rule that
only non-unon teachers can be en-
ployed. Such a policy, said the court,
is arbitrary classification that has no
connection with the public welfare.
The court also held that the board
rule would break contract with the
teachers which was entered into last
June when the teachers were hired.

UNION LABOR
Demands That Leader Give Up Fight
for Stability Amendment.

Union labor continued its assaults on
the Stability League Amendment Tues
day.
The amendment seeks to cripple la
bor's greatest weapon of defense, the |.
and r., by providing that twice-d defeated
amendments to the Constitution can not
be resubmtted oftener than once in six
years.
The l. and' r. Defense Committee,
through William Halenkamp, of Cincin-
natl, its Secretary, Tuesday issued an
open letter to o. B. Chapman, Dayton,
President of the Stability League, calling
upon Chapman to resign from all con-
nection with the Stability League
Last week Chapman was reelected a
of Labor at Mansfield. The Federation
passed resolutions condemning the Sta
bility League amendment.
Halenkamp, who was union labor
delegate to the recent Constitutional
Convention, writes Chapman on behalf
of the |. and X. Defense Committee:
''As President of the Constitutional
Stability League, you are impairing your
usefulness to the labor movement of
Ohio and embarrassing it.
"The Stability League movement was
condemned by the State Federation of
Labor at Mansfield, and | submit that
you, as a Nice-President of the Fedora
ton, can not consistently urge the adop-
ton of this amendment, which inter
feres with the proper use of the initla-
tive and referendum. You should resign
from the Stability League and join labor
in its fight against this amendment"

FIND WAGES ARE TOO SMALL.

Washington.-Of of the associat-
ed charities report that many of the de-
mands made upon them are not by the
so-caled down and outs or even by
the unemployed, but by families that
need some assistance to supplement in
comes too small for self-support.
One official said:
"One of the greatest problems is
with those families that through no
fault of their own, cannot make both
ends meet. This is because the wages
paid for certain labor is too small.
The daily wage Garner, the street
sweeper, for example, finds $50 too
small to maintain a family to begin
with, and then there are frequent lay
offs because of the weather The re-
suit of this condition is that children
in those families are either sent out
to work and fail to get an education,
by which they could improve their
condition, or they are kept at home
and are poorly fed and suffer physical
consequences
1t was stated that one family CON
sisting of man and wife and four
children under 1G, is entirely self
supporting on weekly wage of $15,
divided as follows: Food $3.50; rent,
$2.75; clothing, $500; fuel and light, so
cents insurance, 25 cents, and Incl
dentals, $500.
