GUY H. SCULL DEAD
OF BLOOD POISONING
Former Deputy Police Commits
sioner and Rough Rider
Has Sudden End.

Guy H. Scull. former Fifth Deputy
telligence Corps OF the army. veteran OF
the Rough Riders, treasure hunter. war
correspondent adventurer and business
man, died last night in st. Luke's Hos
pital OF blood poisoning.
Mr.. Soul was playing golf on Mon
day with n party OF friends, ana ap-
peared to be in the best of health and
spirits. but on Thursday he presented
himself at ST. Luke's Hospital for treat
ment saying that carbuncle on the
nose that had been annoying him lit
tie since last Sunday had become very
troublesome
His sudden death last night was a
severe shock TO his wife. the former Miss
Nancy Whitman. and she found 1t neces-
sary 20 remain in the hospital herself
through the night. Relatives told the
hospital authorities that they would
have the body removed 10 Boston to-day
for burial
Guy II. Soul graduated from Harvard
IN '9S, and on class day that year ne
was to have read the class ode, but when
his name was called the president of the
university announced that he already
was in the service with the Rough Rid
ers. 1t was his misfortune to be in a
troop that was left at Tampa TO look
after horses until after the fighting in
Cuba had ceased.
After being discharged from the serv-
Ice the young Harvard graduate became
a newspaper reporter in this city, but
the yea 1900 found him in South Africa
writing about the Boer War for the
Commercial Advertiser, for which paper
ne later went to the Russo-Japanese
front

VIII Draw Only II worthy.

From the offices of A. L. Erlanger
and Charles Frohman, Inc. who control
an important share of tho theatres
here, came the Information that no
general reduction TO the $3.50 point had
been planned so far. II was the view
here that no dramatic production couls
draw SO unless II genuinely merited
such n price.
The Empire and the George NJ. Conan
theatres, under the control OF this
group. now have a $50 limit. An In
tcrcsting s.dellght on the situation was
the recent decision of Joe Weber not
to swing from 81 70 $3.50 at the Casino
Theatre. as he contemplated doing after
opening "Honeydew." This decision
was said to have been Influenced by
soundings taken at ticket agencies.

Selwyns Cut Off
Fifty Cents From
Theatre Prices
Bring Down Scale for Both
Dramatic and Musical Pro-
auctions.

The first break in the wave OF high
theatrical prices which has been draw
ing much comment recently came yes
terday in the announcement from the
Sewyns that they would lead the way
In lowering the scale at their new Times
Square Theatre Beginning next week
the best orchestra seats for Miss Flor
ence Reed in 1.-The Mirage" will be re-
duced from SO TO $3.50. Only one sur
vival of the old scale will remain IN a
top price of 81 for Saturday and holiday
night
This decrease, IL was said, will mean
about $3.50 less nightly In the gross re-
ceipts. The play has been doing big
business, with a heavy overhead, par
ticularly In the way OF salaries for the
players. However. the step was said TO
have been taken after n talk between
Arch Selwyn and David Belasco.' Mr..
Belasco. who always has stood out
against high prices for dramatic attrac-
lions. urged that $3.50 was the reason
able limit for a non-musical. production.
With a greater demand for tickets re-
sulting he believed q play with such a
long run. pointing to the success along
these lines OF THE Gold Diggers," now
in It's second year at the Lyceum.
The Plan Worked Well.
The Selwyns also were convinced u
the value of the plan with their own
production. "Buddles," last season. AL
though virtually a musical attraction
that started with a top price of So, 1t
was lowered to S2.50 and played to
furnishing business. which II is repeating
in Chicago now under similar conditions
The Selwyns have decided to maintain
this scale for future booking OF dramatic
plays in their own houses, with the Satur-
day seal probably remaining. 1t was
explained that the demand on the last
night of the week was so heavy thai
the price made no difference.
With musical productions TIE scale
win be slightly higher. going TO 50,
though this is low compared to the av-
erage of $3.50 for musical productions
here this season. The first play under
the Selwyn auspices to have this scale
will be Jimmie" in which Arthur
Hammerstein will present Miss Frances
White when the new Apollo Theatre
opens.
Announcement has just been made in
keeping with this move by John Golden,
producer of "Lightnin' " at the Gaiety
Theatre. He denies emphatically re-
port that the scale at this house would
20 to 50. Frank Bacon's comedy opened
at s. and advanced 10 $3.50 some time
ago. at which level Mr.. Golden declared
Il would remain.
Other managers yesterday evinced NJ
inclination as yet to fall In line.
Charles Dillingham; has declared in
favor Of more moderate prices all along,
but II was pointed out at his offices
that the overhead for big and ex-
pensive company like those for Fred
Stone In Tip Top" at the Globe and
for the three stars of "Hitchy-Koo" at
the New Amsterdam made a $3.50 scale
necessary. The Liberty Theatre. where
THE Half Moon will come next week.
has a 50 scale.

Ho0vER's ADVICE Is IN DEM AND
Former Food Controller. Called into
Conference by Labor Chiefs

Questions Of industrial peace and
related problems were discussed Tues
day at conference between leaders of
organized labor and Herbert Hoover,
former federal food administrator and
member Of President Wilson's second
industrial conference.
Mr.. Hoover said he had made the
transcontinental trip from San Fran
cisco to discuss the whole industrial
and employment situation. He had no
definite program to offer, but expect
ed to advise and discuss with labor Of
ficials on general conditions.
Differences appeared among men,
bers Of the council as to the real pur-
pose Of Mr.. Hoover's appearance. Be-
fore his arrival, William Green, secre-
tary Of the United Mine Workers, de-
clared that the council would not go to
any person to discuss the subject of in
dustrial peace. He said that Mr.
Hoover had come for a discussion of
technical engineering questions, the
nature Of which he did not disclose.
While federation of labor officials
were reticent about the subjects to
come before the council, it was indi.
Gated that Mr.. Hoover would be asked
to discuss means Of reducing waste in
production. This was understood to
include discussion Of the question from
both the labor and management view.
points.
Labor leaders, while admitting that
there are evils in the labor situation
causing some production waste, are
prone to place the blame, if any, to an
inefficient management. They con-
tend that many difficulties and contro.
versies between labor and its employ.
ers have had their inception in ineffi.
cient subordinate plant officials.
Mr.. Hoover was expected to be ask
ed his opinions on this phase of con.
ditions and whether he could offer 9
program which would result in an in.
crease of production through correc.
tion Of the alleged evils.

found thousands Of parcel post pack
ages in Paris and the French seaport
towns, which were intended for Amer

stress Of reconstruction, transporta-

ficials appealed to the Red Cross for
assistance in the distribution Of thous-
ands Of these packages. The Red
Cross was the only organization able
to handle the situation and as a result
the packages, which might have re-
mained in storage for innumerable
months, reached the American troops
who had been expecting them. The
Red Cross hasn't forgotten these SER
vice men. Moreover the American
Red Cross is providing recreation and
helpful amusement for these boys just
as it did back in 1917 and 1918, and
cooperating with the government in
keeping the American "Watch on the
Rhine" happy, satisfied and healthy.

A Good Bill of Health

People like to travel. Although the
Americans will not engage in such ex-
tensive foreign travel in the near fu-
ture, they will undoubtedly continue
to travel in this country in search Of
recreation, information and restful, at
tractive surroundings. The northwest
has always been a haven Of pleasure
seekers, a resort for the tourist and
the summer resilient, and since the
elimination Of the foreign travel,
should draw an increasing number Of
tourists each year. Naturally the
communities that have the reputation
Of being healthful and we'll ordered
will receive more tourists than those
whose record in this respect is not
good.
If you were a tourist going into a
new community would you stay long
in town that has q crouch, that does
not pull together in the spirit Of COM
munity welfare? It is also particu-
larly true that few tourists will stay
in any place that has not shown its
efficiency in dealing with ordinary
health problems. A high death rate
frightens away more people than a
high tax rate. An active Red Cross
chapter promotes community spirit;
prevents disease, by conducting class
es in home hygiene and care Of the
sick, and first aid; raises the health
standard by establishing health CEN
ters, distributing health literature and
employing Red Cross public health
nurses. The American Red Cross is
not "elose corporation" and is Of
fering from Nov, II to Is the oppor-
tunity to every red blooded American

Can Now Make Use of Advertising
Matrices

Just to show our patrons that we
never cease being progressive and en-
deavor at all times to keep our plant
up to the highest pitch Of efficiency,
we take pleasure in announcing to the
business men Of Cakes that we have
just installed new stereotyping ma
chine.
OF course the average person will
have no more idea Of what stereo-
tipping machine is than If he lived on
the moon. If one should Judge by the
name Of the outfit, Auto Caster, he
might easily be led to believe that we
had gone into the automobile business
and that this mysterious bit Of ma
chinery was in reality a set of rollers
for some make Of car.
However, you'll have to guess again.
Many wholesale houses in writing to
their retail dealers in regard to sd
vertising ask whether the local news
paper 10 equipped to use "mats." II
not, the company knows it must send
mounted electrotYpes. 81
A matrix, or ''mat," as it is called,
is the paper form from which the cut
is made. If q printing office can use
these it 10 unnecessary for the eastern
houses to go to the expense of having
cuts made and then paying postage or
express on them to the place Of de-
livery. The next time your wholesaler
asks this question, just write that we
can use mats up to four columns wide
and nine inches long. II they are
larger than that it will be necessary
to order the cuts.
It is much easier to persuade the
big houses to send advertising matter
to you in mat form than in plates, for
the reason that they are much less ex-
pensive In every way.
An especially pleasing feature to
which we wish to call your attention
is our new advertising cut service,
which our patrons are at liberty to
use to the fullest extent. This will
embrace various branches Of merchan-
dising and the mats will come right
along with the proofs, 80 just as soon
as you make your choice we can cast
the cut. This does away with send
ing in an order for the cut after you
have picked one out, as was necessary
under the old system.
We will shortly receive q nice lot
of holiday advertising mats, and we
invite merchants to call and make
their selections as soon as they arrive.
