up IN MABEL'S ROOM"
Gay Theatrical Event, the Funniest
Ever. in Auditorium Oct. 10.

Gay Theatrical Event. the Funniest
Ever. in Auditorium Oct. 10.
One of the gayest theatrical events
of the season is promised in the forth
coming production of Up in Mabels
Room, the sensational New York farce
success which a II. Woods will pre-
sent at the Auditorium Saturday, Oct.
IS. Up in Mabel's Room comes here
from the Eltinge theatre in New York,
where for months it was the most con
spicuOus comedy hit of the. season. 1t
is a farce in three acts by Wilson Col
lisOn and Otto Harbach and is described
as a frivolous farce of feminine fOlbleS.
The pot in this instance revolyes around
nothing less significant than PINK
chemise on which is inscribed Mabel,
from Garry" In a moment of Senti-
mental cxaltation Garry gave Mabel the
chemise and foOlishly inscribed it. Now
his sin has come back to plague him.
He has lust married a sweet and innO-
cent. but jealous girl and is spending
his honeymoon at the country home of
a friend Among the guests is the beau
tiful Mabel of the chemise and the
naughty present is with her. There are
other ladies' i'm the house who once had
sentimental regard for Garry and who
think it their duty to inStill as much
annoyance as they can into the first
days of his married life. The chemise
is Il terrible weapon, and 1t seems likely
that Mabel and her friends will use it.
1t therefore becomes essential to Garry
happiness that he recover the trouble
some garment and this he sets about do
ing. The production is elaborate and
not one Of its least features is its revela
ton of beautiful gowns and lingerie
The carefully selected company includes
John McCabe. James Telfar, JOSEPH
Bingham. Jane Anderson. James Don

SENATE COMMITTEE
 WON'T SELL LINERS
Republican Senators Vote Against
 Passing of Jones Bill

Washin gton, Feb. 2O.--The senate commerce committee ordered favor ably reported Chairman Jones bill prohibiting the sale of the 30 former German passenger liners except as may hereafter be provided by con- Sress.
 While no record vote was taken on the bill, the committee previously adopted 6 motion, 10 to 3, proposing that the sale be prohibited. Senators Edge of New Jersey, F'ernald of Maine and Nelson of Minnesota, all republicans, voted in the negative.
 Those supporting the motion were: Chairman Jones and Senators Ball. Colt, Lenroot. McNary, republicans; and Chamberlain, Fletcher. Kirby. Ransdell and Shephard, democrats.
 While the committee hearing was in progress, counsel for the ShippinS board appeared before Associate Jus tice Bailey in the district supreme court to urge that William R. Hearst on whose taxpayer petition q tempo rary injunction against the sale has been issued, should be placed under $5,0OO,O00 bond to cover possible losses to the government due to the tying up of the craft by legal pro- ceedings. They estimated the daily prospective loss at $2O,OOO and also pointed out that a, contract to sell the Swanee for $2,0Oo,000 held up by the injunction expired today.
 Counsel for Mir. Hearst contended that only nominal bond should be re- quired as board officials had told con- gress all bids had been rejected and that no sale would be made without specific permission of congress. Mir Hearst sued, it was stated. not for his personal gain, but in the public interest to prevent loss to the govern nent, and counsel added that q bond of so.O00,0o0 required of a. single tax payer would prevent public spirited persons in future from applying to the courts in similar cases.
 Justice Bailey said he would be prepared tomorrow to fix the bond and intimated that the expenses al ready incurred as to the proposed sale probably would govern the amount of the bond.

BUENOS AIRES WILL HAVE GREAT STATUE
One of Columbus Like That of
 Miss Liberty

Buenos Aires, Feb. 20.--As NoyaS- CTS entering the harbor of the great est city of North America behold the majestic Statue of Liberty, so within the present year those coming to the greatest city Of South America will behold majestic sentinel, a tower- ing statue of Christopher Columbus.
 Tho monument of the great navjga,- tor will not, like the Liberty statue in New York. stand in the harbor, for Buenos Aires mas no real harbor. but will rise nearly 100 feet in height from q point near the waters edge. The site selected is in the broad Pa seo Colon, ir front Of the government house. whence the statue will over look the beautiful Plaza Colon and the vice cXpenSe of the River Plate as it enters the ocean.
 Representing c years labor of the sculptor, ArnaIdo Iocchi, appropri- atel3 a native of the country in which the diScoverer of America was born. tue monument soon will be shipped from the artists workshop in Rome 10 Buenos Aires. according to recent adviccs. The image of the navigator is itself 22 feet high carved out of a single block of marble. It will there fore have to be brought over in one piece.
 Critics who have visited the sculp- tors workshop recently and seen the work virtually completed write that, for symbolic beauty and grandeur of proportions, the monument will be one of the most impressive in the world.
 ''The column supporting the statue of the navigator is placed upon an ample socle covered with sculptured scenes and figures" says a Rome correspondent Of Ia Razon. ''IEhe front part of the socle is the bow of a. Latin ship about to be launched in to the sea. by four youths with naked torsoes bent with effort The scene represents the start Of the caraHels of Columbus from the port of Palos, Spain.
 High up on the bow Of the vessel is tho figure of Civilization. In the toga of a Roman matron, she extends with naked arm the torch which H. lumines the new lands and toward which d youth beside her-Cenius-- gazes with inspired countenance. From this base rises the pedestal, slender as the tower of a lighthouse, and on it's summit, straight and up- standing, in his hands navigation chart half unfolded, towers above all the yet youthful figure Of Christopher Columbus"
