THREE NEW VAUDEVILLE
 ACTS AT ORPHEO MONDAY,
 TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY

1t is evident that much serious thought, expert planning and sound theatrical judgment has gone into the making up of the "big time" vaudeville bill starting tomorrow for only three days at the Orpheo thea tre.
 Elsie White is a small woman with personality and husky, vigorous, workable voice, who can shout about as loud as she sings and she is ac- companied by young man who plays we'll and together they hit off fine. Elsie in addition to singing has some good looking clothes, especially the dress in which she represents Jew lsh maid. Elsie will sing number of original song ideas accompanied by Abe Frank at the piarfo.
 Earle and Earle present whirl- wind novelty. This takes the form of an aerial exhibition which is execut- ed on an apparatus composed of rings, but not flying rings They do a great many things with rings. The rings are big and small and they go through them, sometimes alone and sometimes together. They have per fected this apparatus themselves which is said to be astonishing.
 Pot Pourri and company will offer spectacular novelty, different from anything heretofore presented on the local stage. 9G
 Beginning tomorrow, the wonder Hpl five-act feature picture, "In His 11kother's Place." starring Hale 1aQilton will be shown. It

Arkansas-LOuisiana Highway Good, TamO
 Road in Bad Shape

Commendation of the Arkansas Louisiana highway from Grady to Warner and condemnation of the Tamo pike was voiced yesterday by T. c. Parham, former prosecuting attorney, upon his return from 72 mile drive to Dark Corner, Lincoln count, where he attended a meeting of a road district for which he and E. w. Prockman are the attorneys.
 "The Tamo pike now is the darn dest road on earth,' said MT. Brock man. Ut is in horrible shape-so full of holes, a vehicle is bumped to almost. But the Arkan- sas-Louisiana highway from Grady to Warner is fine. When I hit that piece of road, that Studebaker of mine just sailed along"

Indians Inveigled
 Into Farnum Play

: Many persons had to be used for the scenes in the outlaws camp m, the William Fox perturbation of Zane Grey's novel "The Last of the Duanes, in which William Farnum has the title role. Director J. Gordon Edwards secured the country around Palm Sprins, California, to round up the desired types.
 As the outlaw village had been built by Edwards on the Indian reservation it was decided that as many Indians and sqyAws as wished to act should be used As the Indian is superstitious about camera, It was rather dubious whether they would accept the work.
 The official interpreter was called in and the situation explained to him. He assured Director Edwards he would have some Indians present when wanted.
 The day arrived and the inter preter was true to his word. A large number of Indians from within a radius of 25 miles were on hand. Each received crisp bank note which they immediately spent in the village store on their way back to their ranches.

the Bavarian republic; I reHeunce and
abdicate nothing" 1t is reported that
many arrests have been made in
Munich among the Bavarian aristoe-
raey.
There is no indication in Bavaria
of disposition to support any reac-
tionary movement. Eisner's death has
demonstrated clearly that the people
of that part of Germany at least are
through with kaiserism. The tragedy
had its good effect in arousing the de-
mocracy of the Bavarians. 1t is prob
able that in other parts Of Germany
as well monarchical movement would
be as quickly resented. Only by some
trick. some military maneuver, could
q counter revolution succeed. 1t is
possible that If once established, even
by such trick, q monarchical organi-
cation might for time dominate, ow
ing to the long maintained habit of
the German people to respect autocratic
authority. But the happenings of the
past four months have wrought a
change in the German spirit, and the
Bavarian developments indicate pretty
plainly that kaiserism has had ifs day
and cannot be restored

Welcome Home!

The American people rejoice to see
the President safely back at the
capital from his journey abroad.
1t has been a momentous departure
from precedent, the first occasion on
which an American executive has gone
beyond the national boundaries, save
in two cases of visits to the Isthmian
canal. The voyage over the seas and
back was not altogether safe. There
we're and are still perils afoat, grim
relies of the war. There are always
perils in seafaring, especially In win
ter. These have all been brayed and
passed, and the President is here
again, safe and sound, perhaps little
fatigued with the exaeting labors Of
the past weeks, and burdened with
grave responsibilities. He plans to
return to France as soon as the state
of the public business Will permit.
That viii renew the anxiety which the
people naturally feel ON his account.
But for the present it is .Yeassuring to
have him back in Washington, and
the capital welcomes him home with
unfeigned gladness and relief.

Bone Dry Washington.

With the action of the President last
night in signing the revenue bin the
District today becomes Abone dry"
Under the law it is now forbidden to
bring liquor into the District save for
medicinal, scientific, mechanical and
saramental purposes. The excuse of
personal use" no longer serves as a
defense for those caught bringing in
toxieants here, and the work of the
/ court in enforcing the law thus becomes
much easier than before. II viii not
be necessary to discriminate finely.
The mere fact that the possession of
1iquor in transit into the District from
soutside suffices for conviction unless
Fit can be proved that it is for one of
: the three purposes mentioned in the
law. That, of course, is impossible in
ss1he great majority of cases.
The District now looks to see thor
cough enforcement of this law. There
should be no misapprehension as to its
5neaning and scope. 1t has been well
advertised--so well, indeed, that for
some time past there has been food
of intoxicants into Washington in an
-ticipation of the drought Particular
1y during the past few days has the
tide of alcohol into the capital risen
to great heights. Fortunately this
sscandalous spectacle is now at an end,
and if the police are vigilant, as they
have been during the past year and
ca quarter, the law Will be given effect
and the city cannot fail to be safer
and cleaner and better.

The Presidents Challenge.

the IreSlQent mas returned IN nShl-
ing spirit. His Boston speech, with its
eloquent and confident appeal to the
people, is a clear challenge. He is
ready and eager fer the fray. The
fray is on.
More interest than ever attaches
now to the function-partly social,
partly offieial-appointed for the White
House tomorrow evening, when the
President is 10 explain in some detail
10 his guests the terms of the world
compact he has brought from Paris.
Among the guests win be men who
differ with him radically about the
matter. Their views are known. Some
have already publicly expressed them.
Two-Mr. Lodge and Mr.. Knox-both
men of international consequence
wiil speak in the Senate this week fol
lowing the White House dinner.
To those men, and to other men of
like stamp, the Boston speech will not
be convincing. The President will
have to offer something in specific re
ply to their specific objections.
The President is, of course, advised
as to the attitude of his opponents and
the grounds of it, and presumably Will
at this meeting address himself to the
business on the lines thus made neees-
sarr.
And the effect, if any is produced, by
what he may then say should appear
at once. Mr. Lodge will speak Friday,
and Mr.. Knox Saturday. If their OBJ
joctioEs to the league of nations are
not modified then, but remain stout
and soeketed as before, it viii be a
safe assumption that the President
cannot bring about a change in them.
a debate of extraordinary eonse-
quence is in progress. It overshadows
everything else. and has almost as
much interest for the world at large
as for ourselves. At home here its i'm
portance could not well be exagger-
ated. Men not given to excitement or
to verbal extravagances are asking
that the people take close and thought
full note OF all that is in hand; and
the people are reminded that some ex-
preston by them may be necessary
before the question is finally dis
posed OF.
In the last analysis, it is the peoples
the past, and it is their province to
decide as to the future. And seldom
have. the people shown more intense
interest in their affairs than they are
showing today

Street Cars Burned.

The loss of thirty-two ears by the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company In the barn fire last night
is a serious depletion of the rolling
stock of that company, already at the
limit of its capacity. Fortunately
there are new ears already in the city
under the order given several months
practically making up the deficien
cy, though the fact remains that all
are not yet equipped with motors. 1t
is now in order to rush those motors
SO as to put the new ears in service
at the earliest possible moment The
explanation was recently made that the
motors had been delayed by the manu-
facturers on account of the rush orders
of the government In the emergency
it would seem possible to obtain spe-
cial dispensation for this work, to en-
able the company to put its road in
order for carrying the people without
further delay It is to the interest of
the government to have the local rail
ways in shape to carry the maximum
number of persons and hence whatever
can be done by it to hasten the equip
ment of the now crippled lines is ur-
gently desirable. Inasmuch as the
lately ordered ears are only sufficient
to bring the road up TO its actual needs,
orders for additional ears, to fill the
gaps left by the loss by fire, should
be fled Immediately. The rolling stock
lost last night is insured, and thus the
cost of the new equipment will not
fall fully and directly upon the com
pany, though the old ears cannot be
replaced at the rate at which the old
ones we're obtained.

Higher Teachers Pay.

Yesterdays action by the Senate in
adopting an amendment to the Dis
trict appropriation bin establishing u
base pay of 81 900 for public school
teachers aceomplishes for the present
purpose that has been diligently
sought by the local authorities since
the bill first came under consideration.
This amendment has, of course, yet
to he considered in conference. and
the hope is that it viii be preserved
there and that the bill as finally en-
acted will carry the item.
Washingtons teachers are badly
paid. The scale of compensation does
not measure up TO their needs or to their
merits. 1t is remarkable that during
the war period, with higher pay pre-
vailing in almost all other lines of oe-
cupation. il has been possible to keep
the schools in operation As it was many
teachers were compelled, through sheer
necessity, TO accept opportunities for
betterment and at times the system
was gravely depleted.
Even at a basic pay of 1000 ana
with the bonus of $40, the teachers
compensation during the next fiscal
year, if this amendment is adopted
finally, will not be munifeent. 1t will,
in comparison with the responsible
ties which the public instructors bear,
be barely adequate. In effect the Sen
ate amendment constitutes a fat scale
1t may not do exact justice, but in the
circumstances it was the best to be
accomplished. One of the causes of
the failure of the Senate committee to
act in this matter was the confusion
of scales laid before it. The estab-
lishment of minimum of 81 900 will
at least insure that no teacher is paid
less than is necessary for decent living.
The District looks hopefully to the
conferees to accept this essentially just
and urgently needed provision.

applause, which Is quite contrary to
the rules and altogether inappropriate
in the legislative halls. 1t is obvious
that the privilege of attendance upon
the legislative sessions of the House
and Senate may be so abused as to
interfere seriously with the work on
the floor, and perhaps to create a total
ly false impression in the public mind
as to the merits of questions under
discussion. Yet it must be said that
it is hard for the average American
auditor to sit in silence while words
that evoke his approval are greeted
with applause on the floor of the
chamber. There is no rule against
demonstrations on the part of repre-
sentatives and senators and none can
be made and enforced. The Vice
President, however, is plainly bound to
see that the rule against applause from
the galleries is enforced.
