'MONTNARTRE, NOTABLE PLAY
FROM THE FRENCH, PRODUCED
New Group of Actors Unite to Present Pierre From
daie's Drama-Russan Girl Has Leading Role.

lover In other details the progress OF
this story of young love does not differ
from others that have held the interest
of the French public in the past. The
spectators who will take most pleasure
out of 1t are those acquainted with the
deep variations in the ethics of the
pavement OF Paris.
General Representation Excellent.
The general representation was excel
lent. and it might have been vastly more
effective on less huddled stage. That
the role of the volatile heroine has not
already tempted some American actress
is difficult to understand. in view of some
of their futile efforts to find plays. 1t
is easy to name half dozen who would
have been most effective in the part OF
the Montmartre waif.
Last night 1t was acted by Galina
Kopernak, young Russian who has not
yet learned to speak English in a way
that any audience can understand. She
is pretty, intelligent, evidently more
or less inexperienced but of undoubted
stage talent facie il superficial. She
has charm and after she mastNrs the
language and learned a little bit more
of the technical requirements of her
profession, ought to be an interesting
addition to the list of young actresses.
Arthur Hohl played the composer with
sincerity and a long list of capable ac-
tors filed the small parts well. The
most that can be- done Is to acknowl-
edge the skill of Helen Ware and Helen
Lowell. who were the most<~distin-
guished among the women, Mabel Fren-
year, Rose Winter. Frank Connor. John
Anthony, Frank Doane and Clark Sill
vernail. But there must have been
many more who contributed to the sue
cess of the performance. Benjamin
Glazers translation sounded often
stilted. and rarely suggested any natural
manner of speech.

Lincoln Holiday
Theater CrOwdS
Please Managers
Children Go to Hippodrome
and Flappers to "A Bill of
DivOrcement.'

The attendance at the holiday matinee
performances yesterday. while not 10
full capacity at many of the attractions,
was strong enough to bring ray of
Sunshine to theater managers who have
been having a lean season. In the eve
ming the patronage picked up consider
ably, though the audiences were not the
biggest that Broadway has seen.
The school holiday brought the usual
number of children to Get Together" at
the Hippodrome, where about 60 per
cent. of the afternoon audience and 40
per cent. of the evening were composed
Of youngsters. The "tired business man"
flocked to Good Morning. Dearie." for
the afternoon audience contained
higher proportion of business men than
at any time since the run at the Globe
Theater. Flappers from boarding schools
thronged the matinee of "A Bill of Di-
vorcement," more than 400 seats being
occupied by group parties from girls
schools
Schoolboys were much in evidence at
Bulldog Drummond," the melodranfa at
the Knickerbocker, where A. e.
Matthews, who plays the title role in this
thriller, autographed more than two
dozen pictures of himself for juvenile
admirers after the performance. At the
Gaiety Miss Elsie Janis and her gang"
CT ex-service men played before two
audiences containing large numbers Of
former service men.
AL Jolson was about the only actor
Of prominence wfie commemorated Lin
coins Birthday with a curtain speech
about the great emancipation, and this
time the comedian Of "Bombo" was Sc
rious, He said in part:
"One of the greatest things about Lin
coin, to my mind. was his sense Of hu-
NOR. In the midst of the great crises
which he faced as only man with a
sense of humor could face he could al
ways pause and tell story which set
off the thing just as it was. His humor
was not satirical and not merely good
natured. 1t was really the truth
wrapped in coating OF the kind of
laughter which is close to tears. 1t
seems to me that the humorous view of
q thing Is the thing itself-its real ma
ture-stated without bitterness or gibe
at i'll luck.
Lincoln was fond Of the theatre. He
preferred comedy, the kind which con-
tains humor which is the truth"

To Have Conference With
De Courville, London Pro

Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation OF Labor, will meet
Albert de Courville. London producer.
next Friday to try to settle a contro-
versy caused by Mr.. de Courville's dis
inclination 10 have members of his Eng
lish cast playing In "Pins and Needles"
at the Shubert Theater. joint the Actors
Equity Association.
Two weeks ago, when the musical
comedy opened here. efforts were made
by the Equity to have the English pro-
ducer enroll the forty to fifty members
Of his company in the protective asso-
citation. Equity took the matter up with
Mr.. Gompers and the letter from the
latter to Mr.. de Courville followed. The
labor leader vii call upon the producer.
Mr.. de Courville takes the stand that
the Equity Association has no right to
assume any jurisdiction over his COM
pany who Will be in this country for
short time. The English producer sas,.
he considered his case an exceptional
one and would attempt to convince Mr..
Gompers of that fact He made the
point that, should the cast join the
Equity body and a strike be declared
ELS dctorS anu actresses would be with
out jobs and 5000 miles from meme
Frank Gilmore, executive secretary
of Equity, represented the situation
somewhat differently He said that the
English Actors Association and the
Equity have a working agreement by
which all British stage people automat-
ically become members of the Equity
when they appear in this country. He
said this was the first time his asso-
citation has had any trouble with an
English company and intimated that
Mr.. de Courville had been led to op-
pose the Equity upon the advice of New
York producers.
Mr.. de Courville, admitted that he was
not well informed of the manner in
which the Equity functions He said
he did not know that it was affiliated
with the American Federation of Labor
and expressed fears as to the lfnita-
tions it might place upon his company
Mr., Gilmore, when told of the produc-
Ler's attitude, said that the enrolling in
the EQUITY of the English members
meant Merely the payment of one dollar
month ITO the association by each
member during the tour of the show
here. He scoffed at the possibility Of
any strike.

Senator Townsend Proposes
Distribution of War Mate
rial Among States.
HAS JOINT RESOLUTION
PAYMENT of Is Per Cent of Value
Required of Each Beneficiary
Under Allotment.
HAS JOINT RESOLUTION

Senator Townsend of Michigan au-
thor of a joint resolution providing
for distribution among the states OF
surplus war material. according to the
population. said today he believed an
amendment to the resolution to IN
rlude the District of Columbia ana
the taxpaying territories OF the
United States in the distribution
would be entirely satisfactory to him.
Il think that the District of Column
bia undoubtedly should be included in
the distribution of the surplus war
material said Senator Townsend
when the matter was called to MS
attention today.
State to Pay Is Per Cent Of Value.
Under the resolution each state is to
pay Is per cent of the value OF the
material shipped to its institutions.
The distribution is to be made through
Secretary of Agriculture. 1t is Senator
Townsend's contention the govern
ment will receive more money
through his plan of distribution than
il would receive for the surplus war
materials by selling them to private
individuals, and also the states would
be greatly benefited by the arrange
ment.
Billion I'm Surplus.
1t is estimated that the government 1t
has on hand about $1,000 100000 or
surplus war material which could he
distributed.
The joint resolution has been re-
ferred to the committee on military
affairs of the Senate.

Appealed.

Allan Davis, principal of the East
ern High School. was awarded. yes
terday, by Justice Hitz of the Dis
trict Supreme Court, judgment for
s2,2573O against the District Of Co.
lumbia Mr.. Davis sued for longevity
pay for the years 1917 to 1921. but
the District authorities contended
that as salary of principals of the
high schools was fixed by law at
$4,000 plus the bonus. no longevity
pay could be collected. Attorneys
Wilson. Huidekoper & Lesh. for the
school officials, however, contended
that no change had been made, in
the law as to longevity pay. and M.
Davis was entitled TO such pay in
addition to the basic salary.
The principals of the other high
and normarl schools who served dur
ing that period have brought similar
suits. and the decision in the Davis
case probably will be adopted, dis

MANS HEAD SEVERED
BY SWITCH ENGINE
Andrew Williams Meets Death in Rail-
road Accident in Local Yards
Early Tuesday Morning.

Andrew Williams, g years Of
age, was run down by a switch en-
CINE and killed on the Chicago &
Northwestern railroad early Tues
day morning His head was sever
ed from his body. The accident oc
cured between Second and Third
avenues, The crew of the switch
engine notified Coroner Charbon
neau, who took charge of the re
mains.
Just how the accident happened
is not known. Mr.. Williams had
been employed at Tipler, a small
town i'll Florence county, and Mon
day came TO Hurley to visit his
family on Iron street He spent the
evening at home and then came
down town. Just how he came to
be on the railroad track is a mys
terry, as his actions from the time
he lett his home have not been ac-
counted for. The theory that he
had been slugged and robbed and
his body placed on the tracks is
not given credence because of the
fact that his watch and a sum of
money was found OH his person
after the accident. Neither is it be-
lieved that there was any motive
for suicide, as Mr.. Williams spent
pleasant evening with his family
and seemed in the best of spirits.
The authorities held that it was
not necessary to hold an inquest
since there was no question OF the
manner of death.
The deceased is survived by the
widow aud ten children, A married
daug hter, Mrs, VIM. st. Onge,
lives at Ironwood. An incident
i'll connection with the affair was
that the man S son in-law, VIM. ST.
Onge, was a member of the switch
ing crew on the engine that caused
his death. A married daughter
Mrs. Joseph Thomas lives at home.
The funeral was held Thursday
morning with services at St Mary
church and burial in the Ironwood
cemetery.

Story of The Play.

Following is the story Of the play:
Phyllis Castleman, on evening Of
her betrothal to Lord Burleigh, an
English nobleman, needs the whisper
ed word Of her former lover, Rupert
Huntley, as he passes her in the
dance; and escaping her guests, gives
him audience. He taunts her with her
faithlessness and she confesses that
desire for riches and power has in
fiuenced her-that she is through with
love. The prophecy Of a passing
gypsy maddens Phyllis; the hooking
eyes Of an image cast their spell upon
her; she tears the long string Of
pearls, Lord Burleigh's gift from her
neck and offers it to the image as a
tribute, touching hidden spring and
hiding her treasure within the fan

The game will be called at S 80, in
order that business men and all

that the game will prove AT attrac-
ton that will draw a large crowd
The black Sox are on a tour and
so far as known Hurley is the only
town on the Gogebic range that
they will visit. For that reason
the local management expects a
record breaking attendance, as fans
from all the towns on the range
will want to see these baseball
artists in action.
The local management win be
under heavy expense in bringing
this aggregation here but believes
the fans will appreciate it and that
it will be well worth the price.
