William Hodge in "Fixing Sister" De.
lights Small Audience.
Regrettable again was the fact that
there was only a small audience at the
Odeon Wednesday night to see really
clever play, Fixing Sister" starring
William Hodge Mr.. Hodge has been
here before, in his eminent success,
1.-THE Man From Home and his sue
cess locally in the former piece should
have insured him good-sized audi
ence last night
I While Fixing Sister" is not as
strong a play as "The Man From
Home" the Whitman story is cleverly
written and portrays side OF New
York society life true to the present
day.
John Otis. a Kansas City business
man, knows from the continual de-
mand Of his sister, young widow,
for money, that her New York envi-
ronment Is not what it should be, and
goes to the metropolis to see what
he can do to set his sister right. He
finds the sister, Mrs. Marian Ellsworth,
surrounded by q gay lot Of society
people who play bridge for money, and
who are bleeding the young woman.
Pretended English nobility figure in
this bleeding process, and Otis works
on the theory that the supposed Lord
Haggett and his aunt Lady Walton,
are fakes" At fashionable evening
bridge, Otis, with the help Of Judge
Willard, stages supposed raid on the
part Of the police. which works out
realistically to the hostess and her
guests. Following the raid Otis ex-
poses the English people as pair OF
sharpers and thus brings sister to a
realization of how she had been duped
OF course there is love story thruout
the play and all ends happily.
Mr. Hodges style of comedy Is suited
to the role Of James Otis. the western
business man, and is similar to that Of
his man from home" The climaxes
Of the first two acts are weak, and it
is not until the close Of the third act
that the strength Of the play Is APP
parent. Mr. Hodges support was in
every way in keeping with the high
character of the production. Hamil-
ton Deane did very clever English
character sketch in his Lord Haggett,
and Ida Vernon was very good as Lady
Walton. Jane wheatley made vi
vacious and headstrong Marian Ellis
word, and Miriam Collins gave most
natural Interpretation Of winsome ABB
bic Sexton, who Is finally won by
Otis.
The production is magnificent one
in every way. Great care Is. given to

ic victory of the war by forcing the
resignation Of Minister of Marine Won
Capelle.
Won Capelle attempted to place re-
sponsibility for the naval mutinies on
socialist members of the reichstag and
his own retirement from office is the
result. 1t has never happened before
that one of the kaiser's militarists has
thus been dropped overheard for max
ing false accusation against the So
cialists. The incident indicates that the
kaiser is beginning to show fear of the
reichstag which so quickly rallied to
the support Of it's accused members.
simultaneously with Won Capelle IS
resignation, the kaiser has adjourned
the reichstag until December to give
himself time to try to save the Hohen-
zollern autocracy from new domestic
attacks. These three events-the naval
mutiny, Won Capelle's resignation and
the long adjournment Of the reiehstag
are progressive parts Of the same
crisis.
1t must bring despair to the German
autocrats that the kaiser g first visit to
Sofia, where he arrived yesterday, CO.
ineides with the rumblings of revolt
within Germany. The kaiser has gone
to Bulgaria to urge his Balkan ally to
cling fast to the war. Yet, all the Bull
earian statesmen must know the serious
ness of the situation facing the kaiser
at home.
Fate apparently is beginning to stack
the cards against the kaiser. Hitherto,
the big slices of the wars luck have
gone to him. But fortune s fickleness
has sent the kaiser for his first war
visit into the Balkans at the most un-
fortunate moment that could have been
chosen.
The three phases of the crisis in Ger.
many, therefore, may now spread to
Bulgaria, making Bulgarian distrust OF
the Hohenzollerns new element in the
movement against kaiserism.

be star spangled worlds series.
Stars and spangles blended this af-
ternoon. Snow and rain did it. Bleach
ers, grandstands and pavilions lost their
flame of red in a composite of red and
washed out blue.
Sickly looking bunting and depress-
ed flags, fluttered in a frigid breeze as
the Giants took the field at 1890. 1t
warmed up some as the pep increased,
but the effect was hardly noticeable
The stands lit the crowd in the nose
as they barred bare green spots of emp
tiness as game time drew on. The
crowd stood and shuffled its feet OF
swung its arms to keep warm while the
Giants went through stiff batting
practice. Swathed in brown sweaters
the new found heroes of baseball took
healthy cuts at the ball as righthanded
second string FINGERS served them up
John MeGraw was 'coeky at second
base in the practice. His players fool
ed around in the sun and gave the i'm
preston that only the Giants are due
to win.
The White Sox had taken their bat
ting practice earlier, and as if to prove
John McGraw's expectancy of right
hand pitching, Eddie Cieotte had taken
his cut at the ball. Slim Sallee was
either still kidding the crowd or was
picked to pitch, for he was in there hit
ting along with the regular lineup.
However, Sallee had done the same
thing in the two games at New York.
The same band that whooped up mil
itary marches during the first two
games of the series was out again to-
day and had no alibi Just as much
noise was pried out of the third base
line as on the first appearance of the
Giants.

Washington, Oct. 13.-The second lib
erty loan campaign reached the half
way mark today in point of time, but
not in subscriptions.
With the nation far behind the pace
set for it, treasury officials declared
that progress thus far is causing no
optimism but they intensified their
work to put the loan across.
Rallying cries have gone forth coast
to coast to make today the biggest yet
recorded and thus to start a spurt that
will carry the nation to the $4,000, ,000,-
900 goal.
At the close of Thursday, eleven of
the twelve federal reserve banks re-
ported 1914, ,195,550 subscriptions, less
than seven per cent of the expected
minimum and about 10 per cent Of the
So 900, 100000 minimum.
Approximately $350,0O0,O00 must be
subscribed daily from now ON to attain
the five billion mark and about $204,-
100000 daily to reach the minimum of
three billion.
This means that the entire country
for the remainder Of the campaign-13
days-must be subscribed between nine
and twelve million dollars an hour.
Small investors are particularly want
ed and the slogan now is "10,000,0O

Anstralians Advanca.

With the British Armies in Flanders,
Oct. 13.-Australian troops today forced
their way nearer to the village of
Passchendaele, key point to the ridge
of that.
In their dash the men from the anti
podes turned back the German attacks
with the greatest ease. The assaulting
troops did not even reach the British
lines.
In fact that today IS counter-attaek
mentioned above was not sufficiently
strong even to reach the British lines
is Of great significance, coupled with
Field Marshal Haig's report that there
were no German eounter-blows attempt
ed against his new positions last night.
The fact that the Germans withheld at
tempts to shake the British from their
newly won grounds except for what
must have been very weak effort
around Passchendacle, indicates strict
observance of the new Hindenburg
rules of economy of Germany's man
power, recently detailed at length in
United Press dispatches from Henry
Wood.
Germany is now hard pressed for men
and is only using her forces in counter
attacks where it is absolutely vital.
