Clubs Play
Chilly Done
Foot Ball Parsonage
Adds Prestige to
Performance.

IF THERE had been a curtain, the
curtain would have gone up last
night on the University Club of
Washingtons first performance of
three-act play. As it was. even with
out a curtain, and with only a
slightiy-raiSed platform at the farther
end of the clubs large living room as
a stage, it is safe to say that Apron
Strings" Dorrance Davis slightly
naughty play about a young person
who grew to mans estate slightly late
in life, has never been mode cordially
received.
From the moment M Forney Reese,
who also directed the play, appeared
on the stage as the more than usually
heckled husband of more than
usually distracting wife. the play spun
along at top speed, stopping only once
to tumble with its lines. One of the
largest, smartest and most attentive
audiences of the season hung practi-
cally from every chandelier, and when
newcomer Carl Christianson took his
first taste of whisky the room practi-
cally fell apart.
One of the reasons for all the
excitement last night, apart from the
fact that it was the first play pre-
sented at the club, was the fact that
Lewis Lotion Moneyway, erudite En-
tertainment Committee chairman, had
made sure to warn members that they
must not bring their aunties or the
grannies or their daughters under %
to the performance. The result was
that every auntie, granny and daugh-
ter in town was there-and laughing
not only up their sleeves, but right
out loud besides.
The cast performed as glibly as it is
said it did recently at the Arts Club.
The chief cheering section being re-
served, however, for new young actor

The reason that it wasn't was due to
the fact that nobody was found who
could play the leading male role.

his features into plain "Chinee." Fur

young Chinese actors in order that
two young things may be found who
look enough like him to become his

THE excitement the night before the

dance at the Willard is something.
Every wife of every member in town
has been down to buy new dress,
and the husbands at this minute are
trying to find enough cash to tip the
lady who brings them cigarettes.
This situation has been partly
brought about by the fact that it was
rumored that Mrs. Lou Ooew's Fox
Brown had been down to buy the best
dress in town. Him." said couple
of hundred other wives. "if Mrs. B

STOCKS ARE FIRM

Many New Highs Reached

About 1890, 900.
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Press Financial Writsr

NEW YORK, August 10.-Nuner-
Gus new highs for the year or longer
were registered in today's brief stock
market session despite the usual week
end profit taking.
While gains generally ranged from
fractions to point of so, the trading
volume was around the largest for a
Saturday in a number of months.
The close was firm. Transfers ap-
proximated 100000 shares.
The news. from the markets stand
point, was little mixed. but the ap-
petite of most traders and investors
for leading equities still seemed unap-
peased and overnight buying orders
piled up in the commission houses.
The blue chip" tavorites continued
to attract followings, although num-
Der of low-priced stocks came TO life.
Brokers said public interest was in
creasing with the South and South
west contributing substantially to the
demand.
A jump in wheat prices at Chicago,
following the Governments crop esti-
mate, frightened the picture. Cotton
improved moderately. Rail bonds
gave another lift to the loans depart
ment. Foreign exchanges were quiet.
Among the new 1885 top records
were American Telephone, Western
Union, Consolidated Gas. U. S. Steel,
General Motors. Chrysler, North
American and New York Central.
Other active gamers included Bethle-
hem, Youngstown Sheet & Tube. Au-
burn, Public Service of New Jersey,
Standard Gas, u S. Industrial Al
/ cohol, American Commercial Alcohol,
Delaware & Hudson, New Haven pre-
ferred and Phillips Petroleum. Most
OF the oils were only slightly better
and the metals merely marked time.
Some brokerage quarters found en-
couragement in Washington reports
that the Senate Finance Committee,
in its first executive session yester-
day, had rejected the Administrations
recommendation for a steeply grsdu-
ated tax on corporation incomes,
turned down the House inheritance
rates and altered the excess profit
tax
The controversy between the Gov
eminent and striking relief workers
was being watched closely. 1t was re-
allied that if the trouble spreads a
setback in business revival could re-
suit.
