dreamed of Most urgent of these, IS Chicago.
 It is this special organization, with Milton Nobles in the title role of the gentle old va.gabond that will introduce 'Lightin''' D to Birmingham at the Jeff ferson theatre next Thursday night, beginning a three days engagement. A limited number of southern cities are being played by the company prelimi- nary to it's Chicago opening.
 MT. Nobles is well remembered by older playgoers. He was a regular visi- companies. "The Phoenix was his most successful play and it was in this that the much quoted phrase "and the villain still pursued her. was coined. And it was in The Phoenix" company that John Philip Sousa obtained his first road engagement. MT. Nobles took his from the obscurity of sec- ond violin in theatre orchestra in Washington.
 After being in retirement for 14 y I. to persuade him to appear fh 'Lightin' last summer, while MT. Baeon took a vacation. The news travelled fast that a new star had flashed upon Broadway and the prominent reviewers Hooked i'll to witness his performance. His suc- cess in the part was so pronounced that Mr. Producer Golden immediately placed him under longterm contract for duplicate company, to be sent to Chicago. As a further nucleus for the new organization Bessie Bacon, daugh- ter of Frank Bacon, and with the Gaiety company from the night of its opening, was transferred to MT. Nobles support Miss Bacon will be seen here in the role of Margaret Davis, the vaudeville actress.

This is the lady of the varieties who couldn't get time off on her contracts to acquire a Reno divorce and get rid of husband who had ceased loving her "a year before we were married" until she had the excuse of a sprained ankle. And never was a courtroom of the type so realisti- cally staged and acted, with it's spec tators, over-zealous, officious sheriff and all.
 The helplessness of the layman en-

snared by the legal sharp is dramati cally, truthfully pictured. The smiling, not in the least impossible situation of a judge in love with 8 plaintiff seeking divorce, who IS an unruly, emotional witness; the faithfully drawn types of the faultlessly dressed, shrewd, sophis- ticated, interruptions lawyer; the fat equally well-dressed swindler; the be- wildered Mother and Millie; puzzled Lightnin', and gingery, fighting young Marvin.
 Out of this group the authors have brought quick. ingenious situations, rich with comedy and pathos cleverest of all being the hypothetical love suit of John Marvin, done through an i'm passioned address to the judge and in- tended for the indignant, pretty Millie in the witness chair.
 Leading dramatic analists have said that "Lightnin' " derives It's unprece- dented power to grip an audience from the fact that it is based upon the sim pie, home1y acts and promptings of every day life. It is surprise as well as satisfaction that the playgoer feels.

strength by playing daily matinees and at every performance there were as many standees as the Manhattan fire laws would permit
 After breaking several months ago the ng-standing record of "A Trip to China- town for length of continuous run on Broadway, "Lightnin' is still the big gest hit on the Great White Way, and it is considered a safe wager that it will remain at the Gaiety for another year. As I said before, more than 1000 per- formances to it's credit, it is expected to score at least ,5OO before terminating it's run. "A Trip to Chinatown's" record was 657.
 Other contenders for long-run honors have been Peg O My Heart" with co., consecutive performances: "Adonis,' sos. "East Is -West,p 5SS '@rhe Music Master, 5io and "The Boomerang" 522
 MT. Frank Bacon, coauthor of Light nin' !, and star of the New York com pany, is a native of California, and MT. Producer John Golden has promised to send the company on tour of the Pacific
 coast at the termination of the New York run, because he thinks that Can- fornia ought to see her talented son in the greatest play of the day.
 It would therefore be nearly two years before the New York company would be available for bookings in Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia and the so-called '.week stands,'' compris- ing cities like Cleveland, Detroit, St. Louis and Kansas City.
 So confronted by this situation, MT. Producer Golden has organized a spe- cial company to take up these book ings. Aside from the desirabiiity of getting "Lightnin'" before the general public this season, there is legal necessity of fulfilling bookings arr ranged for the New York company be- fore it's phenomenal success there was

6T>t1EREsS 8 bromidic old saying that
 '1ightnin' never strikes twice in = the, same place. but there's an exception to that rule, for it has struck more than one thousand times on Broao- way and before it finishes it'sa safe bet fifteen hundred will scarcely cover the mark.
 Rut. then this is a different kind or sIightnin' n that we are talking apout from the old-fashioned kind, although IL is brilliant, flashy, quick beautiful, thrill ing, and when I tell you that saw me play exactly three times in New aor>' YOU can readily understand that l thought it was ''some show"
 Pm not different from anybody else though who has visited New York since .Iightnin's went on the boards mere than three years ago, and Frank Bacon stepped into the limelight over night, as 1t were, after years of strug- gl;ng with roles which didn't mean any thing to him or anybody else and his name was practically unknown.
 '.Lightnin'" belongs to the highest
 
 delightful type of comedy ever produced on the American stage; there isn't a risuue line in it; there isn't an illusion that would embarrass a. debutante; there isn't . double entendre'' in the entire play, nor a questionable situation; in fact it is one of the cleanest cut, one uf the cleverest and one of the wittiest plays that have ever seen and I've seen 2 few.
 Broadway, famed playground of Amer ica, which delights in good play. dearly loves the unusual and revels in the super lative, is still held in thralldom by the smiles and heart throbs of 'Lightnin, :" a comedy that has been running at the Gaiety theatre for nearly three years. During the recent holiday week, between Christmas and New Years. it was one of the few plays that risked a test of

 'Lightnin'", by all right of art, de- serves lasting place upon the Amer ican stage. The authors moulded no mere footlight manikin when they ere ated the character of Bill Jones. but a reality,a human being, a quaint, an odd, an eccentric figure, but human as love, laughter and tears.
 Around 'Iigntnin Bil' are a group of other genuine folks. Even the two williams are the right sort, to put it that way, for there are just such abroad in the world we live in.
 And the bifurcared hotel-half of it in Nevada, half in California. It's sud- den accession to popularity when pros pective sdivorcees discover it as re- sort where one may live on the Nevada side and acquire the necessary six months residence for q hot-off- the- griddle divorce, camouflaging their Reno ambitions to the folks at home by corresponding from the California side! And the happy convenience for a hero pursued by a Nevada sheriff in jhis ability to skip from said sheriff, to-wit by the merest sort of skip from one run to another and over the state line as marked clearly running through the center of the office of the bifureated hotel,

Washington, D. C, Jan. 1i.-Thrce
amendments were tackled on the Ford
ncy emergency tariff bill. by the
senate finance committee today in its
first days consideration in executive
session after the recent public hear
ings OF the measure. After tho COM
mittee had voted, ten to four, to open
the bill to amendments. Senators
calder. Republican of New York. and
Jones, Democrat of New Mexico. got
thru provisions which materially
broadened the scope of the measure
and Senator McCumber. Republican of
North Dakota. obtained acceptance of
higher import duty on wheat
The McCumber amendment would
iiN a tariff on imported wheat al
forty cents n bushel instead of thu
thirty cents carried by tho bill, as IL
passed the house. Senator Calder's
amendment would add dairy products
to tho list already protected, establish-
ing a tariff OF six cents a pound on
butter and cheese and their substitutes
ana two cents and five cents a gallon
on fresh milk and cream respectively.
Under the Jones amendment, the i'm
port duty on hides, carried in the
pingley tariff law. would be restored
