THUMB BLOWN OFF BY GAS;
WANTS 'HIM' STUCK ON AGAIN
Base Yoke Thinks Police Sur
geons Not Onto Their Jobs
Base Yoke, 26 years old, an Austrian
immigrant, called at the receiving hos
pital yesterday with his left thumb,
which hud been severed from the
hand, wrapped In a handkerchief, and
requested the police Burgeons to "stick
him on again."
Despite the fact that Yoke had part
ed company with his thumb In a gas
explosion at the Lowe gas works sev
eral hours before and that ho had
found It in sawdust after a diligent
search, the Austrian was firm in his
belief that the surgeons could patch
it on again. They explalnod the situa
tion to him as well as his knowledge
of the English language would permit
and he left the building In a rage,
still carrying his thumb wrapped care
fully in a handkerchief, declaring that
he would (lnd a doctor who would
"stick him on again" like they did In
the old country.
IS HE FATHER OF HIS OWN
CHILD? COURT MUST DECIDE
Legal entanglements of a couple who
continued to live togothor after secur
ing an interlocutory decree of divorce
will give Judge Wilbur a chance to
outshine Solomon's famous method of
deciding between two women who both
claimed to be the mother of the samo
child. It will be up to the Judge to de
cide whether the man in caso caso la
lag-ally the father of his own child.
Three years ago the marital troubles
of Francisco Perei and Andrea Perez
culminated in the divorce court, where
an interlocutory decree was granted
them, but they patched up their differ
ences and contlnuod to live together,
and a son Edward, now 2 years old,
was born to them. A few weeks ago
trouble again developed and the hus
band had the final decree entered and
took possession of the boy.
Claiming that the husband had no
rights to a child born after divorce
proceedings had been begun, the wife
is now attempting to secure possession
of the boy through habeas corpus pro
ceedings.

What Women Are Doing
FROM an obscure position as coun
try school teacher in her native
town, a little community near
Hloomington, 111., Miss Rachel <'rolli*rs
has become In a few years on* "f tho
best known of American dramatist!.
It wasn't In school, however, thai Miss
OrotherH learned to write plays, She
had a bettor training than Unit; per
haps the best possible training, for
tiliu went on tho stagu and studied the
art of writing plays from tho work
side of the proscenium arch.
Her friends weir surprised ami a
little dismayed when Miss Crothera
announced her determination to aban
don the three It's and tv make lor her
gelf a career behind tim footlights. At
liist they tried to dissuudti hor, but
muling she was obdurate, they gave it
tip and bads lier Godspeed with ful
• <1111<r predictions of certain success
ahead—the kind of predictions people
make whon they really believe there
Isn't a chance in the world for their
coming true.
They were right, too, in a way; for
Miss Crothers didn't succeed In dim
ming the luster of Maude Adams or of
.Mis. Carter. She did her bust, how
ever, and all the time she was going
to school) although sho didn't realize; it
then.
One bad part after another fell to
her share until, ono day, tho little ll
llnoia schoolma'am made up her mind
tho American stage needed a few good
plays much more than It nnfind a
Painstaking, but not remarkably, bril
liant young actress. Ho she resigned
her place and returned to New York
to begin work along new lines.
Her apprentice plays were one-act
pieces, written for a New York dra
matic school and played by Its pupils,
imi or two of them were reviewed
with marked favor by the New York
critic*. All showed "promise." Then
came tho first, long play, "The Three
of Us," which made fame in a night
both for Miss brothers, who wrote it,
and for Carlotta Nielson, who played
It.
Since then tho little schoolma'am has
written "The Coming of Mrs. Patrick,"
"Myself, Bettlna," in which Maxine
Elliott starred, and "A Man's World."
Sho has completed two more pieces
which will be produced next season.
She is a hard-working young woman, is
Miss Crothers, with a genius for tak
ing pains which, as has been frequent
ly pointed out, is the only genius that
ever umounts to anything.
Louise Royce of tho Burbank stock
company 1b a graduate to the legiti
mate from tho comic opera stage. Mrs
Hoy CO bttgan her stage career as a
member of the chorus with a Juvenile
"Pinafor*" company, so you see she
isn't as old —well, she isn't as old as
you may have supposed after having
seen her play the role of an o,Jd wo
man on the Burbank stage.
From "Pinafore" she went to school
and from school ba<jk to the stage
again. Her advancement was steady
until sho became known as one of the
best -light opera and musical comedy
prlma donnas in America. Her repu
tation established, she Joined the Rog
ers Brothers to sing leading roles and,
in mid-season, was taken ill. The ill
ness was serious, too. It drove her
into retirement. For a time it was
feared she never could recover, but
she fought, fought, fought and finally
the crisis was passed and tho patient
begaiv to mend.
Her voice was gone. too. At first
she could speak scarcely at all, but
as her strength increased her syoaklng
voice returned.
Then she set to work to learn to talk.
"With inilinite pains she trained anew
the muscles of her throat until at last
sho had conquered and had developed
v sneaking voice of power and good
quality. But her singing voico was
gone. Specialists told her it was gone
forever, and she made up her mind
she never could return to the stage.
One day In San Francisco it hap
pened that Florence Roberts needed
an actress to play a character role In
a new play. Miss Royce was then liv
ing in the Bay City and a common
friend of the two women drew them
together. To Miss Roberts this friend
suggested that Mls_s Royce was Just the
woman she had been looking for. To
Hiss ltoyce ho said simply "Go in and
win."
. And that's Just what the former
prlma donna did. She took the part,
studied it carefully, heeded the Instruc
tion given her by Miss Roberts in re
hearsal and made good. Then, after
a while, she came to Los Angeles as
"character woman" of the Burbank
company.
Last summer, when the Burbank
company played "The Chorus Girl," Oli
ver Morosco asked Louise Royce to
sing a song in that musical comedy.
She protested that she couldn't sing.
The manager insisted that she could.
So she tried, Just to prove to him he
was wrong and that she was right;
but it didn't work that way, for Miss
Royee's Hinging volco. though far from
strong, had regained Its old-time purity
of tone, nnd her placement wal as
near perfect as may be,
She wouldn't sing in public, though;
said her voloe wasn't good enough—not
what It used to be, and added she
never consciously would agree to do
anything that might seem like "oheat
inf*" tho public which hnd been so
kind to her.
Annie Connor, London, has spent so
much time in jail thi-t there is no
longer any novelty in it for her. Her
case is an Illustration of the snying
that it is possible to overdo B thing.
Miss Connor, who is 70 years old, has
spent forty-one years in jails an.l
prisons. She lias overindulged until

Just why She Insists on returning to

lie readily understood. It would seem
Unit alter twenty or thirty years In

nor Observation: It takes all kinds of
people to make the dally news.
No names are to br mentioned.
Strictest secrecy is sworn. Persons
wishing Inside Information may write
to WeUesley college. Dame Scandal i.s
working overtime now, tolling every
one about the show that the Wellesley
tfirls produced la.st week, :ui'l, by tho
way. there were men in the orchestra.
They were, not supposed to he there.
The show was to be for ladies only.
There have been many shows at Wel

gaied upon one. The faculty said that
no men were to see last week's per
formance, but college girls will he
college girls, so they had some men in
the orchestra. They said that they
could not get a ladies' orchestra, but
I inmn Scandal breathes that they could
have done so if they had wanted to.
The straight of tho story is, pays Dame
Scandal, the girls really wanted soirni
mon — a fo-w —to see the exhibition. No
body, not even Dame Scandal, says
there was anything wrong with the
show, though somo of the girls were
dressed in trousers and some wore
short nVir»s.
Stage Jnhnnks have received a ter
rible setback In tho adventures of Dr.
Frederick Griffith, the admirer and
particular pestilence of Mme. Nazi
mova, called to mind now by the doc
tor's release from Bollevue hospital.
Dr. Griffith wrote many letters to
Nazlmova—often, frequently, con
sistently. 'The letters were annoying.
On complaint of Madame", he was com
mitted to Bellevua, Physicians them
were not long in concluding that it was
safe to let Griffith run at large. He
has been set free, nnd his brothers are
to take him to Philadelphia.
Nevertheless, the lesson to devoted
Johnnies remains. If they continue
in their path of folly, they are liable
to be sent to Bellevue. Worse than
that, there is a chance of their being
taken to Philadelphia. Many Johnnies
who have never given their ways se
rious thought heretofore will now
pause. The wise ones will desist.
Miss Christine Nielsen, at one
time a member of the Ferris Hartman
company, now playing on the road in
the east In "The Belle of Brittany,"
disproves the accepted theory that
you may ns well poison a singer as to
allow her to catch cold. The slightest
suspicion of bronchial trouble throws
the average singer into a panic. Let
her manager suggest that she sing in
spite of her cold and there Is likely to
bo trouble.
This, then, Is a tribute to Miss Nell
sen. One night recently Miss Nellsen
had a cold that had been accumulating
for several days. Some of her friends
thought she should not try to appear
ns the Belle. Miss Neilson Insistetd
that she would do her work. That she
did so and won tho golden comment
of the critics of Cleveland, In which
city she was appearing, makes the
tribute to her heroism all the stronger.
Nobody seemed to notice that the sing
er was not at her best. She sang with
a sweetness and clarity that was sur
prising to those who knew how she
was afflicted.
All of which proves that bronchial
trouble Is perhaps a state of mind.
Miss Nellsen insists that singing with
her cold did her voice no harm. "If I
had been a contralto," declared the
singer, "it would have been different.
As a soprano, however, I could sing in
my throat rather than down In my
bronchial tubes, and it did not bother
me. Singing is largely a matter of
breathing properly, anyway, and
believe that one may always overcome
the handicap of a cold by making up
her mind to It."
When Miss Nellsen was in stock In
Los Angeles weekly changes of bills
resulted in her acquiring a repertoire
of fifty-six operas. It was In Los An
geles that offers of engagements began
to embarrass her. Martin Beck wanted
her for vaudeville, somebody else
wanted her to sing the roles of Aida
Hemmi, and an important opora or
ganization offered her a contract for
primn donna roles. All the offers in
volved substantial salaries, and It was
this unanimity that caused the young
singer to turn her face eastward. Sho
refused all three of these offers and
went to New York, where she was en
gaged by Henry Savage and later by
the Shuberts.
Miss Margaret AngHn looks on the
Greek drama as a means of develop
ment. Miss Anglin takes her nrt se
siously. She feels that If a player de
votes herself too long to any particu
lar part or line of parts she is apt to
find herself taking thing-s for granted,
and to the player with a serious pur
pose this is not to be endured.
"That was the original reason for
undertaking the plays of Sophocles,"
declared the star of "The Awakening:
of Helena Ritchie" recently. "It seemed
to me that there was no better means
of developing along dramatic lines than
to go to the foundation of the. drama.
The Greek plays are the basis of the
modern stage, and the further one goes
into the old Greeek drama the deeper
becomes his appreciation of dramatic
structure in general."
Miss Anglin's first presentation of
a Greek play will take place next
month. Her present tour is to the Pa
cific, coast with the University of Cali
fornia as her objective point. At
Berkeley on the evening of June SO she
will produce the "Antigone" of So
phocles in the celebrated Greek theater
of the university.

The Rev. Father Philip J. Magrath,
New York, did quite an extraordinary
thing one night last week for a gentle
parson. James Dwyer, a member of
Father Magrath's Seamen's mission,
told him that he ha>d been robbed of
$30 by water front thieves. Father Ma
grath decided to find the thieves.
Every morning after closing the mis
sion at midnight the priest has been
looking for the thugs. One mornlg he
strolled into the very center of a hold
up party on Tenth street. There were
three thieves and one victim. The vic
tim was in such a condition that he
might as well have been one of the
thieves. Father Magrath jerked up his
right sleeve about two inches and
placed three blows with full steam upon
the respective jaws of the three thieves.
Three thieves slept the sweet sleep of
childhood. Th priest blew his police
whistle. The three thieves woke up
before the police arrived. However, the
priest acquitted himself magnificently.
He held two of the ruffians until they
could be properly pinched. One of the
thieves and the victim escaped.
It is easy to smile if you are careless
about what gets your sense of humor
goat. If decrepit old chestnuts are al
lowed to scratch your funny bone Just
as if they were fresh, crisp and breezy,
it is a cinch to look pleasant from sun
rise to sunset. President Taft, whose
smile is one of the national institutions,
has let It out. The president declares
that he is never supercilious in the
presence of a Joke. He refuses to go
into the family history of any jest when
it comes his way. He just cuts loose
when anything with the earmarks of
humor shows up, even though there is
a chance of its being a grandfather in
swaddling clothes.
Senator Burkett was talking about
art and an art commission in the sen
ate, and was telling about two statues
erected on a great battlefield. One, he
said, was made by some man whose
name was practically unknown. It was
ideal. The other was made by a great
artist.
••It was artistic,"'said Burkett, "but
as Gen. Ainsworth, who is a most
competent judge of what an American
soldier looks like, said no soldier ever
saw a soldier look like that statue."
An Oklahoma man Is oblige*! to boost

months since he had been in Okla

Around Hotel Corridors
■\TESTERDAT was Sunday, conse
quently a quiet day In hotel cor
-*- rldors. Fred Wood, down at the
Hayward, was standing at rest, and at
peaco with all the world, for about two
seconds, and some one, name not given,
began, to tell Fred what a snap he
really had. That started Fred, and of
course a crowd coon gathered. Fred
told a few of the troubles that the ho
tel clerk bucks day in and day out,
and then a happy thought striking him,
he brought out hit -icrap book and read
a few lines of it to the gent who said
he had a snap.
He ended up with the following
"Don'ts for Hotel Clerks," which
brought down the house, retiring the
author of the original remark in dis
grace. Here they are:
"Don't take the Job imagining it is
easy. You'll get left.
"Don't tell the bellboys what a rum
house this is compared with the last
one you worked in. The proprietor
might be peeved.
"Don't instruct the manager how to
run the house. You might lose his con
fldence, and incidentally your job.
"Don't fail to laugh at the proprie
tor's jokes. It might lead to a raise.
"Don't count your position secure un
til you own the hotel.
"Don't tell the cashier what you think
of the man on the other watch. The
cashlur is only human.
"Don't be too popular. It makes oth-
er people Jealous,
"Don't fail to take a liking to the
hOM 1 llttlft boy Mrs B<">«S will Hk»
you for it, and that means several
things.
"Don't Imagine that every woman
who smiles across the counter is In
love with you. She is only keeping in
practice.
"Don't flirt with the female cashier
in the cafe. She is dangerous.
"Don't wear more jewelry than the
boss. He might not like It.
"And don't be attentive to chorus
ladies. Remember your salary won t
stand for everything. N
"Last—but the biggest, 'don'f of all—
don't marry if you are a night clerk.

Ed Allen at the Hollenbeck has a
friend who is a retired oculist and
consequently of a scientific turn of
mind. Incidentally he yields to temp
tation and looks on the wine when it
is ruby at sundry times. One day this
week he strolled up to the counter at
the Hollenbeck and looked Ed in the
eye for a few minutes without saying
anything.
"Well, what is it, old scout?" asked
Ed.
"Highballs—" began the ex-ocu
list, and then he relapsed Into silence.
"What about highballs?" urged Ed.
"I have examined the fundus of
many highballs," continued the pro
fessor, "but I always have noticed that
if I examined more than a half-dozen
at one sitting I became affected per
sonally in the most curious manner;
mydriasis, ptosis.paralysis of accommo
dation and divergent strabismus were
among the remarkable subjective
symptoms I experienced."
By that time Ed had locked himself
in the safety vault.
