W. Frank, President of Asso ciated Charities, Gets Fancy Pay for Signatures Managers of the annual tan day esti mated last night that receipts would aggregate at leant $15,000, and perhaps $17,000. All united In declaring that yesterday «■»• the most nucceaiifiil tag day in In- hlatiiry of the organization. Nagged, ."nagged and tagged! That was the experience yesterday of every one who tried to venture downtown without buying a tag from the Associated churitio.s. There were over 7000 men, women and children in the downtown district selling yellow, red, greon and purple tags fur tha cause of charity, and hardly any»ono could escape their pleadings. Stran gers, tourists and pioneers were tagged alike, and hundreds wore from three to a dozen tags of the various colors. The day was by far the most suc cessful of any tag day Los Angeles has ever known, and as a result of the hearty co-operution of the public—es pecially of the various clubs, schools, societies, mercantile establishments und theatrical folk —the day's sales ex ceeded those of previous tag days by j\ large number. When it is remembered that each tag represented 10 cents, the extent of the charily dispensed by Los Angeles will be seen. Long before 8 o'clock yester day morning hundreds of enthusiastic tag sellers were everywhere In evi dence, nnd the rivalry was keen among all of them to gee who could sell the most tags. A hobo band on a hayrack paraded the streets and caused much amusement. Right behind this band came a sight-seeing automobile filled ■with women of the Associated Charities. KIUMNKKS* 111 -iV A nuir.ber of Shriners, including Leo Youngworth, Steve Brode and other notables, clad In ridiculous costumes, created a great deal of hilarity and disposed of large bunches of tags. In front of the Hoted Alexandria was Hick Ferris, In charge of tw.. automo bile parties, including Florence Storfe (Mrs. Ferris), Maud Allan, the famous dancer, who was kept busy writing her autograph OB tags and selling them a.s fast us she could write her name. Other theatrical parties kept things humming at various places in the city. Tha Empire. Los Angeles, Grand, Bur bnnK, Orpheum and other theaters contributed talent tor the occanton, and did much to entertain the public an I encourage tag sales. A crowd from the Los Angeles high Kehool inaugurated a mock prize fight, which was tremendously funny and drew big crowds.

LOS ANGELES HERALD: SUNDAY MORNING, MAY 8, 1910. thousands of the tags, and entertained in many ways. A whirlwind team from the Polytechnic high school af forded a great deal of merriment in an automobile. They charmed snakes, offered a "ring" free with every tag, played an accordion, and when the freft ring was called for it was given with a bell. One of the Polytechnic yells was frequently given and drew large crowds. In front of the Bartlett Music com pany's on Broadway one of the stu dents played a hand-organ, and an automatic monkey governed by a fiprln? contrivance turned somersaults. affording considerable diversion. AttTOORAI'H TAtrS Some of the autograph tags yesterday sold as high as $5. Maud Allan sold one for $10, several for $5 and quite a number for $1 each. H. W. Frank, president of the Associated Charities, wrote a number of tags for the Ferris party which sold for $1 each. Mr. Frank himself bought many tags. Philip D. Wilson,» president of the press committee of the day, declared it was by far the monst successful day in the history of the Associated Chari ties. Some of the most successful work of the day, aside from that done by the Ferris party, club women and high school students, was done by the Em pire theater and by the Orpheum crowd. Manager Clarence Drown of the Or pheum did his share and a little bit more toward the sale of tags, By spe cial arrangement with Martin Heck, general manager of the Orpheum cir cuit, all performers at the Orpheum were allowed to sell tags if they chose to do so. Not a single performer on the bill refused. In fact all were more than anxious to aid in the Rood work. As a result, four selling parties were made up. Three big autoa and one huge sightseeing machine carried them about the city. The four Orpheum parties began sell ing exactly at 11 o'clock and ceased at 12:45. All were anxious to continue the good work, but were forced to abandon it because of the necessity of perform ing at the matinee. As it was, the four parties broke the record for tag sales in two hours. The amount turned in by the four parties totaled just a few cents less than $300. A novelty was added to the Orpheum parties' sale, each tag being autographed by the Keller. The four parties were made up of William Revell, Charles F. Semon, A. Rartoletti, Frank Martins, M. Fertig, Robert Franckini, S. Jaoquower, Adrian Allen, Fernand Coudray and Charles Wing of the "La Petite Gone" act; Nonette, T. Roy Barnes, Miss Bessie Crawford and Ralph Lynn, Ed Cole man, Treat Mathews, Lily Allthorpe, Inez Lyman, Mario Harrington, Jacque Hasting, Ivy Leigbton and Margaret Haney of "The Leading Lady" com pany. In Charge of the parties were Dr. A. D. Houghton, William Brennen, Treat Mathews and Shirley Olympius. "■Fonjnw" msv In order to attract a crowd T. Roy Barnes did some of bis clever slight of-hand tricks, and M. Fertlg did imi tations of members of "La Petite Gosse. " Mr. Revell, dressed as a clown, contributed to the merriment A "bally-hoer" or "spieler" kept up a constant (low of language, so that the sights and sounds around tbe autos were much like those around the en trance to a side show tent at a big circus. Nonette received $10 f<ir a. tag. The big Kilt came about In this way: Nonette hud gone Into Hookatratten'i oigar store near the Orpheum theater and was busily engage i In lelllng tags. In some mysterious manner tbe feathers on her bat caught flre. In an instant her hat was blazing. Half a dozen men rushed to her rescue, and nuick.y extinguished the flames. Nonetle did not lose her presence of mind for an Instant. As soon as the flames were out she glanced, womanlike, into a mir ror, and with a nonchalant "It's ruined, but I don't care," turned around to ask those who hastily gathered about her to buy tags. One man, proud of the pluck the violinist -had shown, walked up to her and said: "Here's $10. Please give me one tag." That started things going, and from then on Nonette was besieged for tags.

BALLINGER THREATENS 'MORE SNAKE KILLING Special Agent Jones Creates .Scene When He Denounces Secretary's Statements WASHINGTON, May 7.—The cross examination of Secretary Ballinger by Attorney Louis D. Brandeis was pro ceeding with but momentary renewals of the frequent bitter clashes of yes terday, before the Balllnger-Pinchot investigating committee today, when there developed the most spectacular incident of the hearing. Special Agent Horace T. Jones of the land office, who testified some time ago in support of Louis R, Glavls, arose in his place among the spectators and announced in a loud voice that he did not believe a statement made by Sec retary Ballinger was true, and that ho desired that a witness be called to sub stantiate or deny what Mr. Ballinger had said. The statement had to do with Jones' ability as an agent and was attributed by Mr. Ballinger to Special Agent Dlxon. When the commotion in the commit tee room following Jones' Interruption had subsided, Senator Root demanded that the spectator be admonished that a repetition of his outburst would sub ject him to punishment for contempt. Secretary Ballinger, at the after noon session, served notice that if hd continues as the head of the interior department there was going to be somo "snake killing" and it would be kept up until the last snake was dead. Attorney Brandeis, who has been cross-examining the secretary, wanted to know just who was to be dropped from the service, but Mr. Ballinger said tho enumeration would come in. good time. "If I am to continue to conduct thn affairs of the department," said tho secretary, "It will be with tho loyal support of every man In the depart ment." The committee will meet on four days of next week in the hope that the cross-examination of Secretary Ballinger may bo concluded within that time.
