measures. Mr.. Burnett obduratelv re-

to be decided. The Rules Committee will
take up the situation today.
While the leaders on the Democratic

Fastening action on the preparedness

already famous Irish character in
burlesque, and he has continued that part
improving IT each year since
Mr.. Coleman has the distinction of being
the only Irish character of his kind in
burlesque with the exception Of Monroe,
and Furthermore is the author of the
present show, as well as the composer
of many of the lyrics which are par
ticularly pleasing and catchy-especially
the finale, I'll Follow YOU" and the
''lf You Want to See a Little More, :"
song.
Unlike most composers. when he gets
an inspiration Mr.. Coleman does not
rush at the piano and play it off There's
reason. Mr.. Coleman knows nothing
about music. so he huns the tune for
Mrs. Coleman, who plays it for him on
the piano. They then call in their pet
composer who puts the tune in shape
The only drawback to this form of COM
posing it that whenever Mr.. Coleman has
an inspiration and Mrs. Coleman isn't
around the public loses a perfectly good
lyric.
Mrs Coleman started her STAGE career
as a chorus girl in summer opera, and
her voice soon brought her better parts.
She played with Savage in summer opera
in Cincinnati for eight years, but since
meeting "Horatia McNally' she has been
with him constantly. She is really a
very domestic woman and has a beautiful
home just outside of Boston. but like
most experienced stage folk. finds it
