The program opened with the allegro movement from the Schubert B flat trio. and the same combination closed the program with two less pretentious numbers.

Chief Brisbois Is
 To Be Minstrel
 At Shrine Show

Chief of Police Brisbois will ap- pear in the big ministrea1 show at the Shrine Temple October 13 and IA as a black face comedian. This announcement was released last night by c. Geo. Mum, director of the production. There may be some people who cannot imagine Chief Brisbois as a comedian but most of them will not attend the show-not even if they get out before October 13- However. those who have watched the chief in rehearsal are fully as- sured of his ability. He is cast as waiter in the banquet scene and those who have been so fortunate as to see him 20 through the maneu- vers of hash singing whisper that if some restaurant proprietor catches the show the chief may be offered some real jobs.
 Royal Lescher will be host of the banquet. In this role he will act in the same capacity as interlocutor in the old-time semi circle minstrel en- tertainment.
 Included In the big show next week will be two professional vaudeville acts which are known throughout the nation, two quartettes which are ready to give a program ranging from popular songs to grand opera selections, six vaudeville acts and a host of buck and wing dancers ALSO mention should be made of the chorus although its fame began to spreac immediately after the first rehearsal and anything said now is apt to be superfluous.

Chirography Expert
 Scored By Defense
 At HightolUer Trial
IRenubl1can A. P. Ieased WIrel


 REDWOOD CITY. Cal. Oct. 7.-All the technique of chirography was dis cussed at length today. in the trial of William A. Hightower here on charges of murdering the Rev. Patrick E. Heslin, a Catholic priest. who dis appeared from his home at Colma, a suburb of San Francisco, early las: August. The technical discussion, which proceeded from Carl Eisen- schimel of San Francisco an expert on handwriting, aI,d was evoked by questions from defense and prosecu- tion attorneys, found little relief in a sternly worded warning from the court regarding the reported conduct of defense attorneys.
 The court had halted William E Heron. one of the attorneys for the defense, several times in his cross- examination of witnesses yesterday and today.
 Eisenschimefs testimony evolved around a letter demanding $6500 for the return of Father Heslin. Most of the letter was typewriter, but two fines had been added in ink telling of the priests having been beaten and of his being unconscious. Eisen- schimel declared comparison of this written portion with specimens of Hightower's writing caused him to believe that Hightower had written the demand for ransom.
 The competence of the experts tes- timony was attacked so vigorously by the defense that there was no time for examination of other witnesses today. Eisenschimel denied that he had ever said the letter was written by an insane person and defense counsel called a witness who, they said. would be on hand to deny this statement tomorrow.

 A driver of the Glendale stage mo- ticed Baltazara aimlessly lettering along the road near the Cartwright school and after questioning him brought him into Phoenix and mo- tified the police. Baltazara seemed dazed and could not tell where he lived or where he had been, nor did he seem to know anything about being hit by the automobile. After securing the south side of the city, Officer Graham finally located the home of the boy at the corner of Ninth ave- nue and Lincoln street.

rRepubiIcan A. p. Leased Wire1


 LONDON, Oct. 7.-The Washing ton conference on armaments and Far Eastern questions took third place in the three important problems which faced the British cabinet at council today.
 In official circles it is stated the three subjects which demand the governments attention are unem- ployrnent, the Irish situation and armament, but of these unemploy- ment Is the more urgent. Officials are careful to point that the three subjects are equally important, but that the conditions surrounding un- employment demand the quickest relief possible.
 After unemployment there looms the new Irish conference of October II, to which the cabinet must ap point representatives. The cabniet will then give full consideration to the Washington conference. It was learned the composition of the Brit ish delegation to the coming con- ference with Irish leaders was dis cussed and it was understood the government would be represented by the following delegates: Premier Lloyd George; Lord Birkenhead, the lord high chancellor; Sir Hamar Greenwood, chief secretary for Ire land; Austen Chamberlain, govern ment leader in the house of com mons; Sir Laming Worthington Evans, secretary for war, and Win ston Spencer Churchill, secretary for the colonies.
 At today's cabinet council 1t was said the subject of Ireland was fully reviewed, this being the first time Premier Lloyd George had had an opportunity to lay the developments of the situation while he was at Gairlock before the full cabinet.

ANYWAY, CARS HAVE SHELTER

Housing of the motor car caused more concern in the United States last year than housing the family, if figures compiled by the depart ment of labor are taken at their face value.
 According to the departments sta tistics, new construction in 1920 pro- vided homes for S1,103 families, while 93,121 new garages were built during the same period. During the year 547 new school houses were built at cost of s50.023, ,140; the cost of the new garages built during the same period was almost double this figure.
 Tt would seem to me" said Sec retary Davis In making public the figures, that we are more interested in housing automobiles than in hous- ing ourselves. I am informed by Ethelbert Stewart, commissioner of labor statistics, that in the 196 cities with over 35,000 population from which returns were received, S1,204,- 490,764 was expended in building con- struction for the year 1920.
 ''The population of these 1e6 cities was 34.572,904, or 32.7 per cent of the total population of the United States. There were 6S,637 ohe-family houses constructed, at cost of s296, ,124.663, or 24.6 per cent of the total amount of money spent in all kinds of build ings. There were only 5,402 two- family houses built; but, while in all the one and two family houses com bined there were but S1,103 families provided for. there were 93,121 garages built.
 To be sure an unknown number of families were provided for in the 1,496 apartment houses that were built as such and the 239 apartment houses built with stores combined. Still. making liberal estimates for these. automobiles fared better than families. ."-Detroit News

in the most remarkable feat of the game and also of the series. In the seventh inning he started back with the crack of Pitcher Quinn's bat against the ball and while still on the run hauled down the drive over his shoulder, close to1he center field fence. It was a marvellous piece of fielding and it drew big demon stration from the crowd.
 Kelly Goes Hitless
 All the Giants with the exception of Toney and Kelly figured in the hit ting. Toney was taken from the game before he had a chance to bat Burns and Snyder divided the bat ting honors, each making four hits. Burns hitting included a double and triple. Young had double and a triple, while 'Trish' Meusel had two singles and a double.
 Babe Rutn had another colorless day compared with some of his work during the seasons campaign. In four trips to the plate he struck out twice. made a single which scored the two Yankee runs, and drew a base on balls. Fewster running for him and scoring a run. It was said the home run king was suffering from an in
 
 had but one chance, capturing Ban croft's sacrifice fly.
 The game which ended so lop- sidedly. started out as if it might be another one like the pitchers battle of yesterday. Toney, who started for the Giants, breezed along comortably for two innings. The Yankees got to him In the third, however, and he was taken out with bases full. none out. and three runs in. Another run was scored by the Yankees before "Jess'' Barnes, who relieved him, could retire the side.
 Shawkey met his fate. like Toney in this same inning. His wildness was responsible. After he had forced two runs over the plate by passing batters. Jack Quinn was called to the mound. Two of the Giants Shaw key left on the bases subsequently tailed but there was no more SCOT ing off Quinn until the tempetous seventh. Meanwhile Barnes was twiriing heady, steady game. and holding the Yankees safe as he did to. the end.
 Then came the Yankees third in- ming. Schang drew ball and reach ed third on Shawkey's single to right Miller hit for a base, scoring Schang and moving Shawkey to second. Toney gave Peckinpaugh base on balls and all corners were filled. Cheers of the Yankee fans rocked the stands as the home run king walked to the plate. Ruth slammed Toney's sixth pitch and drove it to center for a single, sending home both Shaw1ey and Miller. Peckin- paugh took third. Here Toney was waved off the mound and Barnes was brought out of the bull pen. Ruth went out trying to steal. Bob Meusel walked and Peckinpaugh scored on Pipp's out. This ended the Yankees scoring in the inning.
 The four-run lead looked big to the Giants as they went to bat. Barnes, first man up, poked single to left. Burns went out on a fly to center but Captain Bancroft laced . single to right. Barnes stopping at second. Swawkey threw wide to Firsch who walked, filling the bags.

Shawkey appeared to lose control and passed Young, forcing home Barnes with the Giants first run of the series. Shawkey then passed Kelly, forcing home Bancroft. Quinn replaced Shawkey, with the bases still loaded. F,irsch scored while 'Trish'' MeuseI was being put out at first, Young and Kelly moving up Young came home with the tying run when Rawlings hit a grounder to Peckinpaugh who could not handle the ball in time to throw out the Giants, second baseman. Snyder fouled out to Pipp anl left the score tied in a knot until the Giants hec- tic seventh inning.
 Lucky Seventh.
 The National league leaders made more hits in the seventh than in the two previous games of the series F'irsch began the attack by siashing single to center and went to third on Young's two bagger to fight field. Kelly walked and the bases were filled. There was tremendous cheer ing when Irish" Meusel slammed a double to right. sending home Firsch ande Young. Kelly stopped at third on the hit. Rawlings came through with a single to center, scoring Kelly and Meusel.
 Here Collins took up the pltcnlng burden for the Tanks, but was unable to sweep back the attacking Giants. After Rawlings went out trying to steal, Snyder, Barnes and Burns hit out singles amid frenzied roofing. With the bases full Bancroft lifted a sacrifice fly to Ruth scoring Shy der. Firsch walked and the National league followers broke into tumultu- ous cheering as Young swept the bases with a tremendous three bag ger to left center. Collins then waved good night to the crowd. Pitcher Rogers, his rescuer, threw out Kelly at first, ending the great slaughter to the great relief of Yankee rooters, some of whom began to ride" the American league champions. Twelve Giants were at bat in the. inning. getting eight hits and two bases on balls for total of eight runs. One man, Young was left on base
 Each team added a run to their totals in the eighth inning. Frank Baker, home run king of other days. was given a cheer when he batted for Pitcher Rogers in the Yankees ninth, but the best he could do was to give Irish" Meuse1 long fly.
 The official figures showed an at tendance of 36,509. with gross re- ceipts of $119,007, the latter again a new record. The advisory board s share of the receipts fs s17,S51.o5, the players share $60,693.57, and the two clubs share $40,462.3S.

AVOID DOUBLE ACCIDENTS
by USE OF LIGHT SIGNALS

or all worthwhile precautions
that should be taken by motorists In
trouble at night, there are two that
ought to be adopted generally
throughout the country. Both per.
tain to the use OF blue light to noti.
fy other motorists Of danger that
requires the offer of wide berth on
their part.
irst Is the case OF an accident
which makes II necessary for an au.
tomobile to be towed in at night. The
towing and the towed cars are from
10 to 25 feet apart. In tho dark a
pedestrian might mistake the space
between the two cars as clear for q
dash across, stumble over the towing
rope, and another serious accident
might occur. To avoid this COM
mon signal ought to be generally
adopted. A blue light on the wind
shield OF the towing, and one on the
rowed machine might save many a
life.
Another dangerous situation at
night occurs when n motorlst has to
get out and repair his machine. He
may have TO work on the side toward
tho road, and II he has no light to
show himself to an approaching driv-
or, thero Is tho liability OF another
serious accident. Tho oncoming mo-
torist might think he was giving the
stalled car wide enough berth, but II
might not be wide enough to allow
room for the man working beside
the car.
To avoid this also blue light sig.
nal should be generally adopted. II
could be attached to a trouble line
and hung from the top or windshield
OF the car on the roadside. In such
n case the motorist coming along the
road would know by the blue light
that wide berth should be allowed to
prevent further accident.
The blue light signal system is
used in connection with railroad acci-
dents and on the towing OF barges
on waterways. It's use by motorists
ut night would prevent many double
accidents.

There was salesman for each
car, and they knew their models in
side and out and upside down. The
Studebaker company showed partly
stripped chassis. but the bort, Buick,
and Nash agencies showed the chas-
sis completely stripped, nude as 1t
were and, as is customary where
anything in the nude can, can be seen,
they displayed more interest in these
chassis than they did in the respect
ably dressed cars.
Mr.. Dunham, quite naturally. was
Interested in the Studebaker and
Franklin cars more than any of the
others. and he says that the Stude-
baker special, automobile painted a
bright canary yellow, with cravanette
top and cravanette seat covers, trans
cended anything seen at the show.
The Studebaker with the Cali
fornia top attracted more interest
than any other of the newer auto
conveniences. In this top celluloid
is eliminated altogether. glass taking
Its place, and is SO placed in the top
that It can be removed in pleasant
weather. and replaced in wintry
weather making in effect very de-
sirable closed car.
The Franklin car. according to the
one displayed at the show. will be
dispossessed Of It's slanting hood this
year. and a hood resembling the
hoods on water cooled cars will take
its place. The Franklin, II must be
remembered. is an air cooled car.
These and many other things we're
told by Mr.. Dunham to The Herald
but the substance Of his story is that
this year is going to be q great year
for cars. The demand will overtop
the supply by q whole lot. and pros
pective buyers should order now or
stand we'll developed chance Of get
ting left when the shipments arrive
hero.
Incidentally. Mr.. Dunham prophe-
sizes that the auto show planned for
this city in tho near future has .
chance to make automobile history
here. He is for II.
