ORIGINAL CAST IN "OH, BABY"

Of late years it has become almost an unknown thing for the original cast and production of a metropolitan stage success to venture into this sec ton. Apparently those directing the destinies of our theaters figured to keep the high priced stars in the few big eastern cities while we outlanders had to rest content with inferior casts and curtailed productions. A number two, three, four and some times five or six company has been no uncommon thing hereabouts.
 . There are three shows, however, that cannot be duplicated. Because of both the enormous investments en- tailed and the fact that much of their success lies with particular personali- ties engaged, Ziegfeld's "Follies," the New York Winter Gardens annual Passing Show" and the Marcus Show do not lend themselves to duplication or adulteration.
 Not only have these three attrac- tions never been sent out in under study form, but each trademark has become so valuable that to jeopardize it with an inferior attraction would be poor business to say the least.
 The fact that the owners of these three big spectacles have decided to stop fighting one another and divide territory makes possible the engage ment of the Marcus Show in "Oh, Baby" at the Orpheum on December 5.
 Of course, the famous Marcus Peaches will be one of the main at fractions. Their tkenesses have be- come familiar to magazine readers, while the fame of the star comedian, sMike Sacks, has spread from coast to coast despite the fact that he has trod soil west of the Mississippi.

Community House Sentiment Grows
 Like Grants campaign, we're going to hammer on this same line for quite a spell.
 How glad we were to know we had not included enough in our tentative plans of last week. Several have come to tell us that another story is imperative, so here we go raising our nice little plan of last week up to the second floor. We'll, now that we're upstairs, what do we find? A big auditorium room with polished floor and suspended from walls and ceil- ing every kind of apparatus known to up-to-date gymnasiums and physical training classes.
 The polished floor tells another feature, too, for here the delightful little dances are often given. We haven't been promised a site yet, but nothing daunted, we press forward with the hope that gift around Thanksgiving time would be mighty appropriate thing.
 Try this over on your family!

BULL LOOKED LIKE. CAR,
 BUT HE WAS NOT

Dan Williams and his little son, and Mike Hughes went out to Can yon Padre rabbit hunting on Sunday and bagged 26 rabbits, which they say are in fine eating condition right now. Dave's little son was taken some dis tance from the car by his dad, and deposited on pile of rocks and told to wait there. After awhile he got tired, and started back to find the car. He went off across the desert to big pine tree that looked to him like the one the car was near; but when he got there he found it was the wrong tree. Then he saw something off in the other direction that looked like the car, but when he got near it he discovered it was a bull. But he kept on prospecting, and after walk ing some miles further, found the car, and was seated in it when his elders got back, scared half to- death be- cause they hadn't found him on the rock pile where they left him.

CONJECTURES OF MOVEMENTS
 OF FORMER GROWN PRINCE

Paris June 26-The peace confer ence has not yet been officially in- formed of the escape of the crown prince from Holland, the news having come through British sources.
 Pending details, official discussion of the event and it's bearing on German affairs, and the question whether it in- wolves violation of neutrality by Hol- land, is withheld.
 Recent Berlin despatches printed in the Paris newspapers are recalled, in which unnamed but alleged well placed persons, commenting on the sinking of the German fleet in Scapa Flow and the burning of French battle flags, said they were not surprised and declared that other equally startling events might be anticipated.
 Since the Scapa Flow incident the Paris press has insistently alluded to the possibility of the former German emperor's escape from Holland to what measures had been taken to prevent such move.
 In military quarters the belief was ,, expressed today that the crown prince and Prince Max of Baden are on their way to East Prussia, where the mili- | tary reactionary element is strong The opinion is that there may be among the old junker officer class i those who. whatever opinion is held against the former crown prince per.
 sonally might try to use him as "the man on horseback"
 The presence in Germany at this
 moment of Frederick William, wher | the fate of the peace treaty still hangs
 in the balance has caused disquietude l in Paris, and there is considera bls l specula tion regarding the next devel.

Such possible indictments would not involve prelim- mary seizure of plant and tools and they should be left to their course at common law except under circum- stances of extreme necessity not here shown. This dissent then. is limited to the reason assigned for a result to which I agree"
 Judge Rogers. who joined with Judge Hough in partial dissent, said that for more than twenty years the bureau of internal revenue had treat ed beer containing one-half of one per cent. or more of alcohol as malt li- quor and that during that time the brewers of the country had acqui- esced in that definition. Congress had not yet defined what percentage of alcohol made beer intoxicating he said.
 But in the absence of some definite legislation" said Judge Rogers, 'tht meaning of the term intoxicating li- quors must be question of fact ant not of law. The court cannot under. take to say as a matter of law. tha liquor which contained 2.75 per cent of alcohol by weight is not intoXicat ing"
