Amusements
LYRIC

Any man about to put bullet through his head because of business reverses would do far better to LOOK about and see if he couldn't get an op- timistic young man to walk in on him like the breezy chap who furnished the surprise for John Trelaven. Just because the Cinderella Shoe Co.,. manufacturing soft-sole shoes for in- fants, was about to go on the financial rocks, old TreIeven, the owner, had decided life wasn't worth living when "in walked Jimmy" The very self asserttve manner in which Jimmy appeared at the opportune moment gives it's name to the new dramatic sensation which brings Harry Clay Monday night for weeks engage ment.
 Harry Clay Blaney is a universal favorite, and his return to the awak- ems memories of the days when he was starred in such stirring plays as Across ths Pacific" ''The Boy From Wall Street." and the great Klaw and Erlanger spectacle, Little Nemo."
 Upon the reorganization of the International Circuit, MT. B1aney was one of the first asked to cooperate to make the season success. This clever comedian had just been for tunate enough to discover the great est comedy-dra of his career, and this he immediately decided to use as the vehicle for his return to the foot lights The play tells of the success which follows the efforts of the mys- terious Jimmy" to rehabilitate the affairs of the failing shoe company. He is so successful that he is even suspected of having engineered a robbery to secure the funds for his op- erations.
 Like all heroes, Jimmy is willing to suffer for another. This time 1t is to save the willful young brother of the girl he loves. And any young man would love such girl as the prize in '.In Walked Jimmy" for Mir. Blaney has induced vivacious Kitty Wolfe to return to the stage that his admirers may find playing opposite to him the magnetic little actress who contributed so much to his success in previous seasons.
 If laughter of diverse and various shades and grades means anything to you, if you want a comedy that con- tains all the varieties of laughs com bined with a good, wholesome story. where love and heart interest play, im- portant parts; if you like thrills, tears. laughter and an occasional punch. then you had better see Harry Clay Blaney in his new play called "In Walked Jimmy" when he comes here to the Lyric theatre for weeks engagement starting Monday night The play was written by Mrs, Ron nie HI. Jaffa California playwright, and was originally produced by Oliver Morosco in Los Angeles Miss Kitty Wolfe. the popular leading lady, Is MT. Blaney's principal support.

Wake uplfeeling fine! Best lax. alive for men, women
 and children

Enjoy life! Remove the liver and bowel poison which is keeping your head dizzy, your tongue coated, breath offensive, and stomach sour. Don't stay bilious sick, headachy, constipa- ted and full of cold. Why don't you get a box of Cascarets from the drug store and eat one or two tonight and enjoy the incest, gentlest liver and bowel cleansing you ever experienced You will wake up feeling fit and fine Cascarets never gripe or sicken like salts. pills and calomeI. They act so gently that you hardly realize you have taken a cathartic. Mothers should give cross sick children whole Cascaret any time-they act thoroughly and are harmless

TARIFF REVISION

 TRADE MEASURE
Simply Sincere Effort to
 Introduce Principle of Competition.
Political Correspondence of The
 Farmer)


 Farmer)
 Second on the list of great construc- tive laws was the revision of the tar- if. This was not free trade meas based on thorough study of economic conditions, to re-introduce the prin- ciple of competition. ssy
 For many years Republican and high protectionist manufacturers had had the ear of friendly committees at Washington. They rolled down to the capital in their Pullmans (charg- ed up the price of the necessaries of life), and testified The commit tees inquired obsequiously about what protection they thought they ought to have. The manufacturers named good liberal amount as the height of the fence. It was always sufficient to shield them completely from the competition of, Europe. Now the Dehocratic party does not favor shattering American industries. It simply believes these industries should have the spur of a little out side competition. If on trial it proves that tariff is wholly too low. so that Ngoods can not be made here in competition with Europe, there are few Democrats that would oppose raising it to the competitive point.
 But it does not believe that the manufacturer should be the sole ar bitter of the prices of his commodities, that he should be able to exclude competition at will. It believes that in the great majority of cases our in- dustries will be able to adjust them selves to the present tariff. Our home factories not merely have a de- gree of protection that would be con- sidered high in the protectionist coun- tries of Europe. They also have the advantage of the high rates for freighting goods from interior points in Europe and across the water
 On the tariff question the Repub- lican party is hopelessly lame. It has nothing to offer but a return to a policy which the American people re- jected by most overwhelming vote. It proposes to, have tariffs made by the producer and consumer should be given equal consideration.

ZAPATA HAS PREPARED
TO KEEP MEMORY GREEN
Mexican Leader Has Provided His
Sarcophagus. Stone Coffin and
Equestrian Statue of Himself.

MEXICO CITY, April 1S.-No mes
cages have reached Mexico City tend
ing to confirm the report of the finding
of the body of Villa, and the general
disposition in official circles is to dis
credit the report.
Messages from various sections in
the north received by the war depart
ment continue to report defeats of
raiding bandits and their dispersal.
In the war Office it is said that the
only sections of the country now trou-
bled with organized armed resistance
are the states of Chihuahua and More
los. In the latter constitutionalist col
ums are marching from four different
directions in an effort to surround the
bulk of Zapata's forces. spy who
escaped from the Zapata lines brought
in the interesting information that
Emiliano Zapata, the rebel chief. had
prepared a sarcophagus for himself in
the mountain region of Yautepec,
where an Italian sculptor and soldier
of fortune had not only shaped stone
coffin, but modelled an equestrian
statue of the "Atilia of the SOUTH as
Zapata is called by his followers.

contested Bills at an
Early Date.

All legislation before the House Dis
tr;ct committee over which there is no
dispute will be taken up at a special
meeting of the committee to be held

legislation. This was arranged today
at a meeting of the District committee
Chairman Johnson was authorized to
prepare a unanimous consent calendar
for the committee. On this calendar
he will place only those bills which he
knows will not raise a question The
rule adopted today provides that one
objection will throw a bill off the
calendar. This will have the effect of
expediting the committees business,
and leaving for further discussion only
those measures over which there will
be an argument.
Chairman Johnson started immediate
Iy today TO prepare the calendar. and
will soon issue a call for the special
meeting The rule of the committee
provides that at this special meeting
there shall he considered only those
bills which are mentioned in the call
for ths-apecial meeting.

ARUNDEL 0N-THE-BAY
BEING SWEPT BY FIRE
Summer Cottages of Westinghouse
Prey of Flames Driven by
Thirty-Mile Gale.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
ANNAPOLIS. Md, April 1S.-Arun-
del on the Bay, a small summer resort
on Chesapeake bay nine miles below
Annapolis. is being swept by fire this
afternoon. There are some thirty -odu
cottages at the place, several of which
have already been reduced to ashes,
and according to reports reaching
here. the whole settlement is doomed
to destruction.
\ woods fire has been raging III the
vicinity all morning, and, driven by a
thirty-mile northwest gale, the flames
were steadily swept toward the resort.
Shortly after noon the first of the cot
tages caught fire. and, as all are rather
close together, there is no doubt that
all will go.
They are frame buildings and a num-
Der of them are furnished. The An
napolis fire, department was called on
for assistance and the main engine
and a combination hose and chemical
truck were sent down, but it is hardly
likely, they will be able TO render much
aid owing to delay in getting there
and difficulty i'll pumping water from
the bay.
Arundel is coionized mostly by Balti-
more and Washington folk, who spend
the summers there. Many of the cot
tagers already had laid plans to oc-
cupy their summer abode.
