"TW1N BEDS" AT THE RAYO.

The Ida Anderson Company is
scoring great success at the Rayo
Theatre this week in the rendition
of "Twin Beds" These dramatic
stars have been at their best. Ida
Anderson as Mrs. Hawkins rivalled
her best renditions, while Charles
Olden as Mr.. Hawkins brought
down the house." He ranks with
the best actors regardless of color
in this country. William "Babe"
Townsend in the character Of Signor
Monte was in his element again and
for nearly an hour had the large
audiences actually writhing with
laughter.
The descent from the height of
the serious vein to the level of reck-
less mirth was accomplished by the
mastery ability of Ida Anderson,
who mas selected the Broadway sue
cesses to please and charm Richmond
theatre-goers She owns and con-
trolls the company.
Rupert Marks was there with
the goods" while Hilda Thompson
outdid herself in the character Of
Monte's wife, whom she alternately
loved and hated. Theresa Brooks
maintained her high reputation as
an actress, while Arthur Taylor as
the butler was all and more than
the heart could wish. The stage
costumes were magnificent. They
are owned by the wearers, but the
evident expensiveness Of the gowns
led some people to wonder II they
were not shipped for the time-beine
from the Partisan modists having
agencies in New York. "Twin Beds
will be repeated at today's (Satur'
day. matinee and tonight

he is successful in causing every one

all brought about by his grotesque act

The leading character is Lula Whid.

ALL HOUSTON MARTYRS
Continued from Page u

Weeks u. s. Secretary of War, report
ing that the prison sentences OF every
former member of the oath Infantry
still imprisoned for alleged partlcipa
ton in the Houston Riot of 1917, hat
been reduced, and that, according t
the present revisions of sentence, every
one of the men will have been eligible
for release over period from now ur
til 8 years and months from now
The letter from the Secretary of Wal
| to the N. A. A. G.. P. is as follows:
WAR DEPARTMENT WASHINGTON
Ag 253, 1 (5-12-24) Pris. May IL, 1924
Mr.. Walter White,
| Assistant Secretary, National
| Association for the Advancement
of Colored People.
SO Fifth Avenue New York, N. Y
Dear Sir:
In harmony with the understand az
with you, I am furnishing you the 1oi'
lowing information relative to the So
called Houston rioters:
OF the fifty-four Of these men VINO
were in confinement in the penlten.
tiary when the board of officers visited
that institution, thirty were serving
life sentences. AS the result of the rec
concentrations of the board Of officers
made after most careful and exhaust
i've investigation and consideration OIL
each case On it's individual merits, ten
of the thirty men under life sentences
have received reductions in their sen
fences that will make them eligible for
release on home parole during the Cal
endar year 1925; and the remalnlns
twenty have received reductions from
life to thirty years, which Will MAKE
sixteen of them eligible for home pa
role in 1927, and four of them eligloi'
for home parole in 1928.
In passing upon these cases great
weight was laid upon the evidence pre-
scented at the trial and the conduct IN
confinement of the prisoners concern
ed; and the investigation showed that
the men whose sentences were reduced
to thirty years were the more deeply
involved In tn eaffair and had the poor
err records of conduct in confinement.
OF the other twenty-four prisoners IN
yolyed in the Houston riot, serving
sentences of less than life at the time
of the investigation of the board, elgh
teen are eligible for parole during the
calendar year 1924 and six will be eligi
BILE for home parole in 1925.
AS this recent investigation has re-
suited in reductions in sentences In
every case of the so-called Houston
rioters, with the exception of six who
are eligible for parole not later than
August 1924, as the latest date (under
the modified sentences) on which any
prisoner will become eligible for home
parole is August, 1928 it is considered
that the War Department has been
most liberal in it's treatment of the
prisoners.
Under rule of the War Department
governing the subject, the case OF
every military prisoner is considered
for clemency at least once each year.
and neither the recent investigation
by the board of officers, nor any action
taken upon its recommendation, will
preclude the consideration annually Of
the case of each one of the prisoners IN
vJlved.
Very truly yours,
JOHN w. WEEKS,
Secretary of War.
