LOOKING OVER NEW
EVENTS AT THE PALACE

Unusual things are many times
the most interesting when it comes
to entertainment.
A marimba or Xylophone or
chestra may not be something en-
tirely new, but it is novel enough
in these days of jazz bands that the
melody produced carries a warmth
that is different and most pleasing.
The six men in this orchestra do
not offer a very large selection of
melodies, but what they do play is
certain to please.
Mimi and Pomme the dancing
team are a capable pair and their
work is nicely done. The woman
has the advantage in that she is
splendid when it comes to a high
kick or a difficult bend in a dance.
Pillard and Hitler are a couple of
comedians who provoke quite few
laughs with their eccentricities.
For comedy the little sketches
presented are best. One or two of
these provide a good comedy kick.
Also in the act are two young wom-
en-. who offer several excellent song
and dance numbers. The final scene

Have been doing a little visiting
this week in Showland.
Lot of interesting people in local
Showland this week. 1t never rains
but it pours and we have most in
teresting list of stage visitors.
Rae Samuels knows that she can
not have her husband on tour with
her because he is an important fig
ure in the vaudeville booking world
in New York City.
So this coincidence of song has
adopted a child, one of the cutest
ever.
II tell you that he is now my
boy" Miss Samuels told me. "To
the world and to him he is my boy"
And so this woman goes on scat
tering sunshine. She does not call
it charity, and would raise an aw-
full fuss if it was so considered.
This child has everything in the
world. About the happiest young
ster have ever seen. He has been
on the stage only once, and that was
at Keith6 Monday afternoon, when
he toddled on the stage to throw his
arms around his "mommer."
The suite of Miss Samuels at a
downtown hotel looks more like a
nursery than the apartment of one
of the highest priced women in
vaudeville.
In addition to her pianist and
friend, Miss Samuels carries a
troupe" consisting of a maid, a
governess for her son and about all
the toys in the world.
Jack Broderick, also at Keith's
this week, is an indianapolis artist
who has actually fought his way
to the top of the vaudeville ladder.
Broderick studied some years ago
with Mile. Theo Hewes and since
then he has made rapid strides
through careful study and work. His
season does not close until June

of this act has plenty of color and
is probably the best looking number
offered.
Kranz and Walsh, two men, offer
several songs and much comedy. Are
good for laugh once in a while.
Mccormack and Wallace have n

man and woman make the little dolls
sing and talk. The act is presented
in school room and the students
are the funmakers.
The Three Silvers open the bill
with dancing and acrobatics.

too, has made good.
Although Dave Vine is not of In
dianapolis, he is yearly visitor to
this city. This week he lis at the
Lyric. For years his wife has been
with him, but at present she has
retired because of illness.
Vine is a comedian of fine under
standing. He takes personality, a
story, and then, by putting his per.
sonality into the comedy, makes the
story classic of comedy, both as
to subject matter as well as method
of delivery.

outcome of the trial of the Russians.
The Chinese were told that Moscow
believed the prisoners were to be
tried by court-martial, with the likeli-
hood of their being executed. Such
action, it was declared would cause
Moscow to take suitable steps"
These representations led to a spe-

No information Given Out on Failure

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press,
The silence observed by Henry l..
Stimson, President Coolidge's personal
emissary in Nicaragua, as to failure
of his efforts thus far to induce a
peace agreement between the Mica
raguan political factions was re-
nected today at the State Department,
where no information whatever was
made available on reports received
from Stimson.
Even the statement made by Cen
Moncada, a Liberal commanderin
chief, that Stimson had warned him
that the United States intended to
restore peace in Nicaragua by force
if necessary, failed to break the of
fetal silence.
In some quarters this attitude was
construed as indicating that Mr.
Stimson did not regard the failure of
his first joint discussion with Con
servative and Liberal representatives
as definitely excluding the possibility
of a peaceful solution of the Nicara-
guam civil war.

The question OF womans political
and social status was revealed ycster
day by Rev. Il. B. Phillips, rector of
Epiphany Church, as having been a
consideration of the ancient Hebrews,
if certain passages in the Bible are to
be taken literally. Rev Mr.. Phillips,
who was speaking before the weekly
luncheon Of the Soroptimist Club at
the La Fayette Hotel. invoked passages
in the Book of Deuteronomy to show
that a forward step in the direction
of equal rights for woman, was en-
bodied in implications set forth in that
book that woman should be placed
above a common chattel, q reversal
of her position in the Book of Exodus,
where she existed on a parity with
common chattel.

PLAN IS REJECTED

Would Treat Further
With StimSOn.
Rr the Associated Press.


MANAGUA, Nicaragua, May s.
Gen. Jose Maria Moncada, commander
in-chief Of the Liberal forces in their
campaign against the Conservatives,
reiterated today that the Liberals were
unwilling to consider the proposal to
retain Adolfo DiaZ, Conservative, as
President of Nicaragua until the end
of 1928.
Gen. Moncada came to Managua
from Tipitapa last night after peace
negotiations there with Henry l..
Stimson, personal emissary of Presi'
dent Coolidge. failed to achieve their
purpose, mainly because the Liberal
chieftain declined to agree to Diaz as
President.
An agreement was reached, how
ever, to continue the truce between
the Liberal and Conservative forces
for As hours from noon today, and
Gen. Moncada declared the Liberals
were willing to treat further with Mr..
Stimson if he desired, providing the
Diaz troops were removed Immediately

were concentrated.

Government intends to restore peace
in Nicaragua Immediately and use
force if necessary to do so,''
Later member Of Gen. Moncada's S
staff said that if the United States
formally ordered the Liberals to lay
down their arms and cease fighting,
they would be compelled to accept.
But, he added, so long as the United
