justice had detained them "a hours

rived from Moscow yesterday. was a
courier for the Russian soviet gov
eminent.
Isadora was in a bad humor to-
night and she did, not reveal much
happiness over being allowed by a
board of inquiry at Ellis Island TO
enter the country.
They held me because came
from Moscow" she said. What
did they ask me? oh, they wanted
TO know If was a classical dancer.
I told them 1 did not know because
my dancing is personal They want
ed 20 know what I looked like when
1 danced. How did I know? 1 never
saw myself dance"
1t was officially stated at Ellis
Island that, broadly speaking. the de-
partment OF justice detained the
dancer because Of her long resi-
dence in Russia and gossip that con-
nected her with the soviet govern
ment. and because IL was suspected
that she might be a courier for the
soviet on her ostensible dancing tour

After a long wait, Isadora and her

years her junior. walked out OF the
inquiry chambers and spread the
good news Isadora was petulant and
hungry. The roses she carried were
dropping and dying and her bobbed

KINGS COMEDIANS
MADE A BIG HIT
IN GAINESVILLE
fFrom Gainesville SUM

Last night was banner one for the
Jack King Comedians. All the
week the plays which they have pre-
sented have been very fine indeed and
have won the praise of all who We're
fortunate enough to be present. But
last night, with Another Mans Wife"
as the drawing card there was a ca
pacity house and then some. In adj
dition to an extra large crowd from
the city the university students came
along out of the great parade they
had in honor of their signal victory
on Fleming field yesterday and liter
ally took up every vacant seat that
was left and filled the tent to over
flowing.
Of the play itself too much cannot
be said in praise of its presentation.
Each actor seemed specially "cut out
for thep part taken. OF course Jack
King in his favorite character Of
Freckles, was the king pin" of the
whole combination, and when he
sprung line of comedy on the audi,
ence it always set them into a roar
of laughter and often riprorious ap
plause. And in his sober moments, 50
to speak, he captured the hearts o.
his listeners. Truly the crowd was
with him in his Dad Gummed' fool
ishness, and they literally wept with
him in his spells of pathos.
The vaudeville between acts was es-
pecially good and loudly applauded
10y the crowd.
Tonight there will be a specially at
tractive play put on, entitled "Ku
Klux Khan" Those who were FORUM
ate enough to see The Birth of a
Nation" will have a good idea Of what
sort Of a treat is in sto.2 { the pre-
sentation of this play t.. his splen-
did company. The part CT the colored
man is said to be especially we'll put
over by lad from Georgia who is 4
genuine cork artist"
If you want to spend a very happy
evening be sure to visit the tent of
Jack King Comedians tonight.
