Lord and Lady Algy."

The appearance of any one of the
four stars who will be seen in r C.
Cartons comedy of Lord and Lady
Algy' at the Belasco Theater next
week would be an event of unusual
interest in the theater, but the COM
bination of these players in a single
cast promises performance OF unusual
enjoyment.

supported by such well known players
as Florine Arnold, Lumsden Hare.
George w. Howard, George Fitzgerald,
Ronald Byram, John Rogers. Herbert
Belmore, Daisy Belmore, Mary Compton
and Grace AIDE.
Lady Algy could not get on with Algy
after they were married, first. because
Algy always. backed the wrong horse
and, second. because he preferred
Egyptian cigarettes to her favorite
Turkish brand. Then there were other
difficulties. such as the lack of ready
money. SO the Algies decided to sepa-
rate. each going his or her own way.
For a time the separation threatened to
reach the courts. Algy, in helping his
brother Quarmby in a Irritation with
Mrs. Tudway, was forced to take the
blame on his own shoulders, and Lady
Algy did not like this. But she was
sufficiently interested to investigate
illusions, so in the end she was able to
come to Algy's rescue as well as that
of Mrs. Tudway and clear matters up
to the satisfaction of every one, includ-
ing the jealous Mr.. Tudway.
Miss Elliott has returned to the
American stage in this comedy. Faver-
sham's Algy is part Of the theatrical
history of the Empire Theater days.
Irene Fenwick has the role Of the TO
mantle Mrs. Tudway, while Maclyn Ar
buckle will be the irritable Mr.. Tud-
way.

ports from the Capitol indicated that
the Senate and House conferees were in
a deadlock which may result in pro-
longed delays.
the administration has met with such
bitter opposition and at the same time
commanded such earnest support. Its
advocates find in it the very essence or
beneficial high finance, while its oppo-
nents see menace to small business
and the possibility of political power
as ominous as that welded by the Bank
of the United States, before Andrew
Jackson put it out of business.
There is no reason to doubt that the
measure eventually will become law,
but it seems destined to leave in it's

Wisconsin Escapes Indictment.
1t was Edmund Burke. who. speaking
of the American colonies. said it was
impossible to indict a whole people.
Some such remark might have been
called forth by the weeks develop
ments in Wisconsin. The country has
been appalled, by the size of the vote
cast for senatorial candidates who
sought preferment as avowed OPP
ponents of the war, but the loyal
voters were sufficiently numerous to
save the state of Wisconsin from in
dictment.
Though both the republicans and
democrats nominated loyalist candi-
dates. the combined vote of their
pacif1st opponents, together with that
cast for Victor Berger. the socialist
candidate. was so large that the coun-
try was dumfounded. 1t had not been
imagined elsewhere that conditions in
Wisconsin were SO bad, and the re-
suit is likely to be that in the future
there will be a great deal less toler-
ance of disloyal .utteranceS.
