pended from the Lambs Club for @
while after the incident.
Lackaye first appeared In New York
in 1888 as Luciento in Francesca da
Rimini," and soon he was playing with
Fanny Davenport's company in Much
Ado About Nothing"
He was a founder of the Catholic
Actors Guild and was instrumental IN
organizing the Actors Equity Associa-
ton, afterward conducting a famous
losing battle with John Emmerson for
leadership in that society. OF late
years he threw himself into a move
ment to cleanse the stage.
"Salacious plays" he would say. ARE
produced because there is salaciouS
public"
Success Early Assured.
From the moment that Lackaye
brought his grace, his tall. handsome
figure and his natural ability to the
stage his success was assured. he
amazed every one by the manner in
which, with his height and his 1875
pounds, he could disguise himself and
become the odious villain of Trilby.
Some of his other roles were Robert
lie Diahle in Allan Dare" the Spider
in 1.-The Silver Ring" Capt. Gilchrist
in "Bootles Baby" and Gen. Haverhill
in Shenandoah" the famous hit by
Augustus Thomas.
He appeared with Nance O'Neill IN
East Lynne and with other IN The
Clemenceau Case" Nero" THE Two
Orphans" THE Power of the Press"
"Arstocracy," Quo Vadis" and Uncle
Toms Cabin" In 1926, he appeared
in a revival of "Thelawny of the
Wells" with John Drew. Two seasons
ago he made his last appearance here
in The Monkey Talks"
His Virginia birth was one OF his
greatest prides. Once in Norfolk an
interviewer asked him why he didn't
tell the audience in his curtain speech
that he was Virginia boy.
We'll" said Lackaye, everybody
North knows it. but 1 never say any
thing down here about it. Pride OF
birth in Virginia Is too sacred a thing
to be used for advertising purposes
Preliminary to beginning his studies
for Holy Orders, he had spent two years
at ottawa College. ottawa, Ontario, and
four years at Georgetown University.
He had been nominated to pursue his
theological course at the College, OF
Propaganda, Rome, and had booked
passage for Europe.
Inspiration From Stage.
In New York awaiting the sailing OF
his shin. Iackaye. with his father. at
tended a performance of ..Esmeralda"
at the old Madison Square Theater. He
was intensely interested in the play and
at its conclusion announced to MS
father his intention of becoming an
actor instead Of a priest.
Hence, the son. instead OF sailing Tor
Rome. accompanied his father back to
washington. There Wilton began the
study OF law. meanwhile being e!ected
nresident of the Lawrence Barrett
Dramatic Association, with which he
appeared in several amateur perform
ances.
Through his work in the dramatic
association. Lackaye obtained an intro
duction to Lawrence Barrett, which LED

WOMAN KEEPS DEATH
THREAT BY ATTEMPTING
TO END LIFE IN COURT

up your boy" Norman, the son, is
in the juvenile detertion home.
Mrs. Norris recovered from the
first attempt and had been released
on bond.
After taking the poison today, she
was given first aid and taken to the
city hospital.
When Mrs. Norris attempted to
take her life, her sister, Mrs. Irene
Carr Of Michigan City, was standing
beside her.
After the act, a woman in the
courtroom, then in an uproar,
screamed:
why did you do it? Why did
you do it?"
Sheaffer withheld action in the
case. Previously, Mrs. Norris had
served thirty days in the women's
prison on booze charge and only
had been at her home a few days
after serving the term when the
last raid took place.
Officers traced booze complaints
to her home after the principal Of

DEATH AUTO
DRIVER FREED
Witnesses Live Far Away;
Case Dismissed.

Prosecution on a mansIaughter
charge resulting from a fatal auto
mobile accident is a remote posi-
bility, provided the witnesses are
persons living at points distant from
Indianapolis.
So today Thomas O'Connor, %, of
1923 North Pennsylvania street,
stands absolved of all legal stigma
due to a manSlaughter charge which
followed an automobile collision on
June 10 in which Miss Beverly
O'Brien, %, of Highbore, S. D., lost
her life. The accident occurred on
the National road, east of Indian
apolis.
The charge was dismissed on
Wednesday in the court of Munich
pal Judge Clifton r. Cameron.
ImpoSsibility of attendance of
witnesses living in distant cities and
recommendation of the coroner,
DR.. w. E. Arbuckle, led to the dis
missal motion, according to Jacob
Steinmetz, deputy prosecuting at
torney.
Dismissal was without prejudice,
Steinmetz said, which leaves the way
open for grand jury action.
O'Connor had been drinking to a
slight extent, DR.. H. N. Harger of
the Indiana university school of
medicine stated, following a blood
test shortly after the accident.

From Doctor.

Silence in which a pretty blond
music teacher awaited for fourteen
years her marriage to a wealthy
east side physician, continued today
as the plaintiff in a $4,000 breach
of promise suit referred all queS-
tionS to her lawyer.
Secrecy also yelled the complaint
filed in superior court two today.
The complaint filled half a page,
and only stated that the defendant
proposed to the plaintiff in 1918 and
that the marriage never eliminated.
Miss Hazel Julia Fink, 4503 East
Washington street, charges in the
complaint that Dr. Manlon E.
Beverland, whosce office is at 3036
East Washington street, proposed
fourteen years ago.
Il have nothing to say" she said
when asked regarding the suit. my
attorney will make any statements
that are to be made"
DR.. Beverland, however, declared
no settlement would be made.
He said facts of the case would
come out at the trial-"if it goes to
trial" He indicated that settle
ment outside of court was expected.
Its just a plain case of black
mail" he charged. THE suit is
about something that happened
seven or eight years ago. She won't
get a dime from me-"

Swallowing quantity Of poison,
Mrs. Kate Norris, 1928 Blaine ave-
nue., today attempted to take her
life in municipal court, in keeping
with her death threat made several
weeks ago when she was arrested on
a booze charge.
Mrs. Norris, the mother of an g.
year-old boy, who told schoolmates
his mother gave him several SlugS
of alky," took the poison as she
stood before Judge William H.
Shaeffer.
Sergeant Wayne Bear, who led
the raiding squad, was testifying
that he found a quantity OF alco-
hol at her home on Blaine avenue.
Suddenly, Bear turned and yelled
to another officer:
Watch her, there's something in
her hand"
BY the time the officers could
reach her, Mrs. Norris had swal-
lowed tablets from a bottle which
she had concealed in her purse.
A previous attempt of Mrs. Norris
to commit suicide followed the raid
at her home July 2, when Bear told
her You're not fit to be bringing

senate VOTES
FOR SPLIT OF
HIGHWAY FUND
Majority Is in Rebellion
Against Veto EdiCt
of Governor.
CLASH ON JUDGES PAY
House Stages Angry Clash
Over Proposals for
Salary SIiCing.

Despite the political power of the
Indiana highway commission, the
board today lost its first senate fight
to preserve the $24,000,000 gas tax
and auto license fund. At the same
time, the house of representatives
was embroiled in controversy over
proposals to slice salaries of Mar
ion county judges and court at
tacheS.
Meanwhile, both houses continued
their tax programs, ignoring the
threats Governor Harry G. Leslie
made Wednesday ii his second
message"
Leslie, who declared he would
veto measures not agreeable to him,
apparently had succeeded only in
breaking contact with Republicans
and strengthening house Democrats.
Lieutenant Governor Edgar D.
Bush, Republican, and president of
the senate, today took the stand
against Leslie, which was being fol-
lowed by his opponents in his own
party.
Slap at Leslie
1.-THE senate will continue to pass
bills and send them down to Leslie'S
office for Henry Marshall to veto, ="
he said. Marshall, LeSlies mentor,
was on hand Wednesday when the
Governor prepared his message.
Without debating the question,
thirty-one senators calmly voted to
accept the house bill providing for
$3.50 split of the highway depart
ment fund, which commissioners
and paving interests are fighting to
retain.
The senate also rejected a new
measure amended to save the state
highway department funds.
The bills we're brought before the
senate on reports from the special
committee appointed to work out a
compromise plan. Majority mem
berS of the committee offered q
compromise whereby the license fees
would be split, but the commission
could keep the gasoline tax by TAX
ing over 20 per cent more county
roads On Jan. l, 1888.
Salary Cut Fight Blocked
Further battle over the county
salary cuts was blocked by the
gavel in the house.
With charges of Representative
Fred Galloway Dem), Indianap-
oils that "unclean hands are re-
sponsible for the salary trimming
proposal, the house received from
committee four bills drastically re-
ducing pay rolls of the nine courts
Taking the floor as a heated de-
