THE SABBATH IN NEW YORK.

The Sabbath in New York is par
ticularly harassed now when the
Sabbath bill, introduced by Mr.. Dick
stein at the institution of the Jewish
Sabbath Alliance Of America (Agu-
dah Am Israel and Tomchai Shabos)
is pending in the New York State
Legislature. This bill which when
passed would allow conscientious
Seventh Day Sabbath Observers to do
business on the six days Of the week
including Sunday, without molesta-
ton.
There still exist some who cannot
see that this measure is meant only
for Sabbath Observers, and would
grant religious freedom to these.
The bill is being opposed very much
by the church people. The New York
Sabbath Committee which Is located
ut 81 Bible Hocse, New York, has
written a letter to Mr.. Duke Of the
Codes Committee Of the Assembly
asking for a hearing II the Sabbath
Bill Is danger Of being reported out Of
the committee. Following the success

citation the East Side Storekeepers
have organized themselves. The men,
bers Of this organization make II
their business to act as detectives and
serve summonses to those who keep
their stores open on Sunday because
they are strict observers Of the Sab
bath. The Jewish Sabbath Alliance
Is rallying all forces to secure the
passage Of the bill, and wants the CO.
operation of all Jews.

LYRIC.

Who Killed Joshua Quincy?
 That is the question that the audi ence at the Lyric theater will be called upon to solve this week during the preSen tation of that powerfully dramatic sensation, "The Crimson Alibi," as played by the PoIi Players. The production is rightfully called a mystery play and unless the auditors are unusually astute and possess at least a little detective ingenuity they will have a hard time discovering who the murderer is until the mystery is finally solved by the detective.
 Miss Ruth Amos, the Poli Players leading lady, has an exceedingly diff cult role to enact. Arthur Chatter don, the leading man, will be seen in the principal role, which is filled with dramatic speeches and helps to make the production such a, success.

WOMEN SWARM IN THE CAPITALS
 OF OLD WORLD

Vienna, Oct. 1.-The swarm of myterious women who have made their appearance in the capitals of central and eastern Europe have be- gun to attract the speculative atten- tion of the Vienna newspapers.
 Perfectly dressed and nearly always of more than ordinary pulchritude, they seem to travel unhindered. over frontiers where the average traveller is treated as a suspect. On crowded trains with the most limited first class accommoda tions, usually taking a week to secure, they always, have the choice apartments at a moments S notice and in hotels with long waiting lists in Warsaw, Prague, Vienna, Belgrade, Bucharest and other cities they find rooms waiting them.
 They travel from country to coun- try on smoothed ways and frontiers present no terrors to them. .,
 y The newspaper belief is that they are principally engaged in smuggling of valuables and securities and for eign monies under high protection, if they are not espionage agents or possibly combining the two.
 There is not first class hotel in this capital that has not it's coterie of these mysterious. persons who come and go irregu1arly and whto can be seen by the traveller first in one city and then another.

PLAZA.


 Sir Arthur Wing Pinero's famous play, Sweet Lavender" which has been played from coast to coast as a legitimate show for many years back is the entering vehicle for Mary Miles Minter at the Plaza theater for the first three days of this week. On the stage it has had a long and honorable career. The reason for this may be found in the gentle humanity and genial humor of the play. Promi nent in her company are such favor ties as Theodore Roberts and Milton Sills. All the New York papers were enthusiastic in their endorsement of the picturized version on reviewing it at the Rivoli last week.

 The resolution committee submitted report containing a resolution de- nouncing bolshevism in the strongest language and committing the conven tion to fight the menace legally as hard as they fought in the battles Of the war in France.
 This resolution was opposed by delegate from New York on the ground that the convention was taking up question it did not understand and that it was not competent to judge. How ever on a vote, the resolution was overwhelmingly adopted.
 Another resolution was introduced in favor of adjusted compensation for ex-soldiers. Resolutions were also adopted favoring the drafting of labor and capital in event of another war. hearty round of applause when intro duced, and passed unanimously.
 A resolution submitted by the Cali fornia delegation calling on Congress to exclude the Japanese from citizen ship was the subject of great deal of discussion. While all the speakers sympa thized with the Californians and their condition, 1t was the opinion of the convention that the matter was not one for the Rainbow veterans to take up.

 SHOW AT LOCKWOOD

Entries for the bathing beach parade , were coming in steadily Tuesday, and although the formality of entering is not necessary, enough interest already has been shown to assure success of the latest Edgewood Park show, according to Hugh w. Hill, president of the para company.
 Prizes to be given the winners consist of months passes to Edgewood and to
 the Strand theatre, and, ill the words o1 MT. Hnl "there'll be a lot of those
 passes we'll have to give away"
 According to plans two California girls
 who have won several plizes each in beach shows on the Pacific coast, are expected to be at the Edgewood review At present they are at Cooks Springs but according to MT. Hill, they are plan- ming to go on parade Friday night at Neptune Beach.
 This review is something new for Bjr- mingham, and we intend to make it an annual event., said Mir. Hill Its a diversion, to say the least of it, and ]; believe it will stimulate interest in water sport. We believe we are going to have

"OLD WIVES FOR NEW"
 AT THE STRAND

Cecil B. DeMille's "Old Wives for New is an elaborate photoplay adapted from the famous story of the same name by Davil Graham Philips, noted writer of Ihuman interest stories It is being shown at the Strand today for a last en- gagement.
 The story of "Old Wives for New" is just what the title suggests. Old wives are literally substituted for new The wife of Murdock's youth, with whom beautifying herself or endeavoring in any other way to be charming is a lost art, is. unable to hold her husbands love simply through his sense of duty. Living in a home that pretty much runs itself. with wife whose chief occupation is eating chocolates and complaining of morning headaches, situation made ooubly unbearable by a hideous kimona, is a state of affairs that naturally has little appeal to mans idea of romance At any rate, this was not what Murdock had pictured when he had embarked on the uncertain seas of matrimony with neat and dainty slip of girl. In
