FAMILY PARTNERSHIP
SCORES ON STAGE
Husband Writes the Plays and Wife
Stars—New Sketch by Eva
Taylor and Lawrence
Grattan Is Due
If you want to be the real money
maker in vaudeville, be a star, let your
husband write your sketches and util
ize him as your leading man. Thus
you keep royalties and salaries right
in the family, get a vehicle admirably
suited to your talents, and have a new
one any old time your husband has a
good Idea.
That is the system pursued by Eva
Taylor, now at the Orpheum. Her
husband is Lawrence Grattan, a ster
ling player find a skilled writer. Last
season he was his wife's leading man in
the Frohman farce, "Chums," which
they played in vaudeville. But Miss
Taylor likes to have at least one new
play a year, and bo, when "Chums"
was shelved, she and her husband con
ferred over this year's necessities.
"Mrs. Jones-Smith-Carey" was the
first playlet from Mr. Grattan's pen,
and Los Angeles Is seeing It this week.
"Preamona," the second, will be pre
sented next week. As It has been
played over the circuit elsewhere al
ready, while "Mrs. Jones-Smlth-Carey"
was giving its premiere only a month
ago. But the latter has proved even
a greater laughing hit than "Dream
ona" and Mis* Taylor generally gives
It first in a city.
"King Dodo," the first attraction on
the John Cort list to cdme to Los An
geles this season, will open a week's
engagement at the Majestic thi
Sunday night, the seat sale opening
this morning. Eleanor Kent, primp,
donna with the Edgar Temple opera,
company at the Auditorium two years
ago; Zoe Barnett, a Los Angeles girl
whose first stage experience was with
the old Casino company in this city,
and William Friend are cast In the
principal roles-. Another local favorite
In the company Is Will H. West.

Miss Frances Nordstrom has placed
herself under the Instruction of Charles
Eyton, business manager of the Bur
bank theater and physical culturist.
Mr. Eyton agreeing to develop the
Nordstrom muscle sufficiently to enable
the actress to do her "Curfew-shall
not-rlng-toritght" stunt in "The Heart
of Maryland" next week with confi
dence and impunity.
Owing 1 to the popular success
achieved by the Relkin Yiddish players
at the Mason, their engagement has
extended two nights, Thursday
and Friday, when they will be seen
respectively in the Jewish "Hamlet"
and the Jewish "King Lear." This, or
ganization Is considered the best of
its kind that has ever appeared in this
city and the Jewish population has re
sponded enthusiastically In its at
tendance.
Owing to the special Lauder matinee
mi Brlday afternoon, the Symphony
orchestra concert, with Arnold Krauss
iloist, will be. postponed one week

REMONSTRATE OVER
PRINCESS' METHODS
Mm:. Granier Discourses on "Love"
Before Kaiser Wilhelm and Calls
Down Censure of Press
BERLIN*. Jan. s.—Several incidents
have combined to bring the Emperor
William and his theory of government
once more into genera! public discus
sion in this country. The first is a let
ter written in 1594 by Gen. yon Stosch
to Rudolf yon Bennigsen and pub
lished in the biography of the Liberal
leader, which is tn process of publica
tion. It contains the following pas-
sage:
The emperor said to one of his con
fidants: "Caprivi i.s easy to get on
with, but lie does not appeal to me.
The man is lacking in imagination.
He does not understand me when I
open out to him new ideas. I shall
take as his successor a younger man,
who is personally more known to me
and has no kind of reservations to
ward me as the result of his past. He
shall bo my man, and nothing else."
Another matter which has come in
fur a good deal of discussion arose out
of the municipal elections at Kattu
witz. where several school teachers and
postmen were reduced for having vot
ed for the Polish candidates. During
the emperor's visit to Naudeck his
host, Prince Donnersmarck, sent for
the official who had been responsible
for this measure and his majesty pre
senter! him with his own photograph,
beneath which was written "Nemo me
impunii! laceesit."
Finally an Interview with Madame
Jeanne Granier, published in the Paris
Gil Bias, has caused grave, not to say
n verend head-shakings. The portion
of the entertainment provided by this
lady for the pleasure of the emperor
at Prince Donnercmarck's Bchloss was
what the French call a "conference" —
that is to say. a witty, Impromptu
monologue. Madame Granier was al
low od to select her own theme. She
chose "Love," and treated it in a spirit
that is "much more common where the
climate is sultry" than in the bard,
cold air of Prussia.
The <'hauvlnistie and Pan-Germanic.
Rholnisch Westfalische Zeitung now
prints an open letter from certain
worthy burgers of Essen remonstrat
ing with Prince Donnorsmarck for of
fering his imperial guest an entertain
ment of this kind.

NEW YORK, Jan. '>.— A queer-look
ing prisoner with long white chin whig
ken and in. wed bead was dragged into
the Liberty avenue police station iii
East New York.
"Name?" Inquired the lieutenant,
who was bent over hli ledger and did
nut look up.
"WllUam Buttlnsky," some one in
the station housi answered.
"i tolor?"
••Whif."
Just then there was a .shuffling and
the lieutenant looked up to see every !
one scatter. In the center of the room
stood a goat, apparently undeddi d
to what it would do next.
"Where did you set htm?" demanded
the lieutenant. Detective Isaac Mc-
Loughlin cautiously stepped forward
and explained.
He had been approached by two
frightened women, who rushed up to
him and declared a ferocious animal
was loose on Pitkin avenue. MeLough
lin found a group of boys rolling sev
erul empty beer kegs on the corner of
that thoroughfare. They said a soat
had turned them over, lingered awhile,
and gone on its way.
The detective took up the trail which
led along Pitkin avenue and woutl'l
from one side of the street to tin
other. Ash barrels had been upset and
boxes broken into bits. One store
keeper said he had seen something
waltzing with a hitching post.
Four blocks from the starting point
MeLoughlin saw a fat man suddenly
throw his hands in the air and io a
Steve Hrodie act on the pavement.
Close behind him was the goat waiting
for the fat man to get on his feet
again. MeLoughlin pounced on his as
sailant and with the help of other de
tectives led lits captive to the station
house.
There a charge of disorderly cor.duci
was made against him. There also
was a suspicion that he had sampled
the dregs of the beer-kegs. Bill was
lodged In an adjoining stable, and the
policemen were instructed to find out
whose goat they had.

her husband to trim the Christmas
tree?

taste was so bad that she wouldn't let
him do It.—Christmas puck.

the unbilled drama ended pleasantly
for all i om i i ned.
Phi ■.■■■■ received at the theater
box oill' c, express paid, a heavily
lit ease, sent from Butte.
On one end w re the initials "J, B. if"
Sundaj morning there arrived from
Chicago a telegram Blgned "Judson B.
Blandlck," In which the sender asked
that three good or > i ]:<- re -
served in his name for Monday night's
Mon lay evening at S a young man
of substantial appearance stepped up
to the box office. He was sunburned
and wore a well-fitting suit of blue
Berge.
"My name is Blandick, Judson 8.,
he said, "and I'd like those three seata
i reserved by telegraph. I alßo took
the liberty to send on my dress suit
, which 1 see you have over there
by your safe."
Ji ,1 F. Shaw, the theater's treasurer,
laid out the seats and inquired it' Mr.
iek could identify the c tae,
'I've pot the key to it," he replied,
"and 1 can tell yoii that my dress suit,
shirts, ties and gloves are inside. I'm
a mining man from Butte, and I un
derstand that you have to wear full
Ing dress to get in here. J'lease
direct me to the nearest hotel, where
I may make the change.''
Mr. Shaw called Mr. Blandick's at
tention to the fact that evening dress
is never required at the Now theater,
and added the nearest hotel was some
blocks away.
The latter fact seemed to distress
Mr. Blandick. ■ His fiancee and her
mother from Boston were to meet him
in the lobby at S:2O, he said, and he
simply had to dress, whether or not
■ m required it. "They will cer
tainly come in elaborate toilets, and I
havo just got to get into my dress
suit," he declared.
Mr. Shaw called a page and Mr.
Blandick was taken to the office of
Manager K. E. Lyons, where the
change was quickly made.
Then Mr. Blandick hastened to the
lobby, just In time to meet his fiancee
and her mother as they stepped from
a taxlcab. Both were in traveling
dress, and they expressed surprise at
Mr. Blandick's attire.
"Why. Judson!" exclaimed the older
of the two women, "we had no idea
you would be dressed, knowing your
train didn't get in until 7:30, so we
came just as we were. I'm afraid
we'll have to go back to the hotel."
"Not at all," replied Mr. Blandlck.
"I've got a sort of private boudoir
right here in the theater, and it won't
take me a minute to shift back again."
Once more, guided by the page, Mr.
Blandlck darted to the business office,
where he shifted in record time, and it
was not until after the party had been
seated that Mr. Lyons discovered that
the westerner had inadvertently ex
changed coats with him. An inventory
of the pockets disclosed J2",7 In cash, a
Xew York draft for $1000 and a bundle
of private papers.
Everything Explained
After the performance Mr. Blandlck
was found in the coat room, where he
had finally sent his dress suit case, and
matters were explained to him. L'p to
that time he hadn't noticed the change,
as the coats were of the same 00!,,r,
size and material.
"Well, T guess I'll get straightened
around after a while," he laughed, as
he shifted once more, this time to his
own outer garment. "Bui your found
ers would save us strangers a mighty
night of tmulile if they would publish
far and wide the fact that dress clothes
i^re not required here. Why, not half
of the audience have 'em on, and I
don't mind saying I'm mighty well
pleased, for I'm coming back next
week, and after five years in the mines
I don't cotton over much to a boiled
shirt."
ODD SALUTES ARE USED
IN NATIONS OF EARTH
Some Kiss in Salutation, Others Rub
Noses and Some Put Srir>d
on Their Heads
LONDON, Jan. s.—ln foreign coun
tries the ceremonies and customs ob
servable at meeting and parting 1 are
frequently of a very solemn and formal
character and arc enforced with the
strictest rigor by the superior in rank
on tin c beneath them.
The Moors at their meetings kiss tho
right shoulders of rnic another, and
■ i they take their leave they kiss
earii other's knees, in Morocco for
eigners are saluted by the Moors on
j horseback In a manner which may well
I startle those unaccustomed to it. The
Moor rldi a full s] I toward the
stranger, as if to run liirti down. He
then suddenly stops and discharges his
[ pistol ovr his head. In Africa, among
ral negro nations, the people take
: each other's hands and j.ull the lingers
I until they crack.
If the men on the gold coast of
Upper Guinea salute a female they
take her hand, raise it to their uosee
and smell it twice. In other countries
of Africa people take off their clothes,
fall on their knees, bend their heads
to the ground and cover tho head and
shoulders with sand.
In most of the South Sea islands,
though the custom may vary in some
respects, this very important prelim
inary to a friendly intercourse in usu
ally adjusted by mi sasy contact pf the
partli s 1 noses, or by an exchange of
eritts. The Laplanders also rub noses.
Ten-Cent Wedding Rings
Who is married in Manayunk and
who is not? That is the question all
the Manayunk district is asking after
the opening recently of a 5 and 10 cent
store on Main street. The reason? They
■a re selling "wedding rings" at 10
cents each und every . girl in sight
bought one and put it on her finger.
Of course it was all a Joke, but the
average male citizen is sorely puzzled
between the true ring of matrimony
and the fake ring of the new Jest. But
that store did a great business in ten
cent wedding rings.—Philadelphia Tel

KBW YORK, Jan. s.Back from a
magic black river where islands have no
firm hold, hut »hlft about, floating out to
sea, the snugly built little steamship Napo
of the Rod Cross line of the Booth Steam
ship company arrived from the head waters
of the Amazon. Thruugh tortuoua channels
as variable aa breezes, ■aided intuitively by
mongrel pilots, Bho threaded her course 2100
miles across the South American continent
to within 2'.'o miles of the Andes and back
again.
The Napo 1b tho biggest draught ship
that ever went up to the foothills of the
Andes, drawing when she left Para 15 feet

At Para the chief officer. Robert Rockell,
said yesterday Captain Barnett took on two
pilots, who appeared to be mixtures of

Four quartermasters and seamen sound
constantly, one forward and one amidships,
one on each side. A score of times Captain
Barnett sent ahead the steam laum-h, with
the second offlcer and an Indian pilot, to
"blazo the way."
•In spite of all precautions the Napo kept
grounding, and anchor was dropped every
night.

Noronha. the Amaz 'ti pilots, disdain
ing tho charts.
"How we know the river" Tou live In
Liverpool, TOU go there. You nnd your
way home, up one street, down that street.
So. all the yum-, we."
By the color of the water., the force of
the current, they know where they are
among the thousands of islands.
Islands Vanish Over Night
Sometimes an Island visible at evening
was mlss'ing next morning, having been
lorn from Its roots and moved to another
anchorage. Some of the shifty isles were
as large as the Napo. In many places tin
channel Is not much wider than the ship. .
Tho river was very low ami foul with
all sorts of floating obstructions, tree
trunks, branches and floating masses of
vegetation and disintegrating Islands. Mon
keys and snakes float away on the ram
bling Isles.
At a point 200 miles below Iquitos tho
ship touched a sandbar. With the revers
ing of the engines her heel touched anl
other bar, proving within what a narrow
channel she was moving.l Her rudder was
twisted seventy degrees away from the
quadrant.
All hands fell to work on a jury tiller.
A fair substitute was made, and In four
days the ship was at Iquitos, ' Innermost
seaport of the world, with a custom, house
and untold millions Of wealth In rubber.
In eleven days, floating down the tide
less Amazon, depending on steam and cur
rents, the Napo was at Para again, whore
her rubber was-repaired.
Doing Her Best
"Won't you try to love me?" he
sighed..
"I have tried," she replied, kindly
but firmly.
"'My rich aunt has just died," he
wi nt on.
"In that rase, dear, I will try again."
