J
CHEER UP, Jim Watson. -The failure to get a report of your Irvington
meeting in the Sunday Star is only a sample of the publicity troubles you
will have before the campaign ends.
REPUBLICAN LEGISLATORS are now writing communications to
newspapers in an effort to shift personal responsibility for the enactment of
of what Gov. Goodrich declared "an admirable” blue-sky law!
THOSE TWO POLICEMEN whom Chief Kinney suggested be dismissed
following their exhibition of friendship for a bootlegger ought to defend
themselves by enumerating the other friends of the bootlegger.
Why, Mr. Mayor?
It is indeed refreshing to find that Mayor Jewett has what he con
ceives to be ready answers to some of the questions that have been bo
generally asked concerning the affairs of his administration. Such a con
dition indicates that the mayor is not without a realization that there are
some mem-sized problems in connection with the government of Indian
apolis. We are encouraged to hope that having realized that the may
oralty carries with it come responsibilities the mayor may yet cease his
schoolboy exhibitions and devote a little of his time to the solution of
these problems.
Such irrelevant and aimless retorts as Mr. Jewett has made to date to
inquiries concerning city afTairs should not be regarded as the limit of his
capabilities. If Mr. Jewett himself can not promulgate a better line of
explanation of his failures than these feeble attempts, he can at least call
on the News for help and with the assistance of that institution which
stood sponsor for him as a candidate, evolve some replies that might pass
the censorship of the school of journalism at Bloomington.
Perhaps, however, the difficulty in learning something definite about
the city administnitlon’s program results from the advancement of ques
tions too involved to be answered during the brief intervals that Mr. Jewett
finds it possible to remain in the city hall.
On that theory The Times submits a les3 complicated question in the
full belief that the well-known interest of the mayor in law enforcement
will compel an immediate and detailed answer.
Why, Mayor Jewett, have you never revoked the poolroom license
of a single negro gambling house regardless of the convictions made
In the city court? ,
Republican Tactics
Will Hays’ party of “intellectual aristocracy and kulture” appears to
be "up against it’’ fairly early in this campaign.
Willis Copeland, Vanderburg auditor and republican henchman, is
desperately endeavoring to obtain a republican speaker for a meeting In
Evansville. Oct. 30.
That is the date of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s announced speech at
Evansville and Mr. Copeland is seeking an excuse to avoid allowing the
use of the coliseum by the democrats.
In Harrison county the republican commissioners divided Scott town
ship into two precincts and designated the voting places where they will
be most inconvenient to the citizens. The Corydon Democrat says:
"One of the voting places is fixed at White Cloud, almost on the Spen
cer township line and at a point where Blue river must be .crossed. As
there is no bridge on the roadway td White Cloud there can be no doubt
that the schemers who put this Job over fully expect that it will prevent a
hundred or more democrats from voting where there are few republicans
to vote."
These are Illustrative of the tactics of the party that “welcomed a ref
erendum” on the national issues.
Switched Again
Mrs. James Bennett of Richmond, Ky., may be a real or a fictitious
character, under whose name newspapers are being carded In the Interest
of the republican national organization.
Mall from "her" Is being sent to newspapers in a manner that makes
it appear that "she” Is a writer of special communications expressing
opinions of readers In some particular locality.
The scheme Is so transparent that it has met with no great success
and the "letters” have generally been consigned to the editorial waste
basket. ""
But a perusal of them reveals a sudden and unexplained switch in the
point of attack that may be indicative of the failure of the first repub
lican effort to slander article 10 of the league of nations covenant.
Mrs. Bennett first wrote that republicans were opposed to the league
of nations because article 10 deprived the congress of the constitutional
right to declare war. Now "she ’writes:
“Article 10 leaves congress in possession of the power to declare war,
and gives the power to decide when and against what nations, congress
shall declare war for the United States to officers of the league of nations.”
Logical, isn’t It?
Next we may expect to learn from republican sources that article 10
does not deprive the congress of the constitutional right to declare war
against whom it pleases, when it pleases, but should be eliminated because
it deprives the congress of ability to forecast Just when a war so declared
will end!
Wishing Well
Probably the first real “wishing well” discovered or christened on
this continent that brings actual, tangible results is that on a farm near
Emira, N. Y., where Mrs. Jacob Miller, Jr., can joggle the handle of the
pump a bit and draw' from it' the wherewithal to purchase ’most anything
she wants or thinks she does; for the well/gives forth oil instead of
W'ater.
It wasn’t built that way—just got that way somehow or other, and is
the source of admiration and envy of the entire neighborhood, for all the
other pumps just give water of more or less potable quality.
As was previously remarked, all that is necessary to produce the
equivalent of cash is to joggle the handle —just two or three joggles for a
new hat; maybe ten or fifteen for anew dress, and possibly tu\lf a day’s
hard pumping for anew car. ' ■ \
One who is inclined toward pointing out morals might expfcss the
opinion that a well from which oil can -be drawn by a little work Ms a
whole lot more satisfactory than a well adapted only to wishing. dt
BEATRICE MAUDE HAS TWO HUSBANDS AT MURAT
Sarah Hyatt's Chorus Girls Are Dressed in Male Attire
Gentle reader, kindly picture this sad
plight of Beatrice Maude, the greatly be
loved actress with the Stuart Walker
pl-ayers.
She has two husbands at the same
time in the first MU in which she ap
pears this season at the Murat.
Somerset Maugham, the playwright,
as very generous to Miss Maude as
Victoria in the comedy, “Too Many Hus
bands.”
In fact, this kindness causes Victor.*
several hours of terrible English cou
fusion and a* the same time It convulsed
in American audience last night at the
first Indianapolis presentation of “Too
Many Husbands” at the Murat.
Victoria is a feather-brained child of
English society and dur.ng the war be
first husband, Major William Cardew, is
reported dead.
Now this same Victoria looks ‘‘heaven
ly in mourning,” so says her mother,
played by Judith Lowry, and thinks It
proper that a memorial service be held
for the ''late” major.
As Victoria, played by Miss Maude,
looks so heavenly “in black,” she marries
Major Frederck Lowndes, played by
Stuart Walker, and the lifelong friend of
Cardew.
The comedy opens with Miss Dennis, a
manicurist, doing honor to the nails of
lazy and indolent Victoria, who is reclin
ing on a soft lounge.
Victoria is married to Lowndes under
the Impression that her firs" husband la
dead, but he Is far from dead.
Cardew, played by McKay Morris, ar
rives safe and sound from a German
prison camp, ignorant that his wife had
remarried.
He had planned to steal into her bed
room in the night and say, "My dear,
behold the hero," but changed bis mind.
We will admit that it would have been
rather—er—at least, decidedly embarras
sing to husband No. 1 to have entered so
unceremoniously his wife’s bed chamber.
For two acts Cardew is ignorant of the
second marriage of his wife until he at
tempts to push Lowndes from the bed
room of bts wife.
It ie then that Judith Lowry, as Vic
toria’s mother, cries out, ‘'Victoria, some
thing must be done,” and then she se
cretly tells her daughter. “It is nearly
midnight and it Is time to go to bed and
you have two husbands, one not knowing
that the other-is your husffand."
That doeg not shock Victoria, es she
begins to figure how she can keep both.
I will not spoil the ending of this
m®rry comedy, which is dai|p in splendid
taste and is the keenest comedy yet pro
duced at the Murat.
Before the curtain comes down for the
final time Victoria has solved the prob- \
lem and John Wray, Elizabeth Patterson
and George Somnes have registered splen
did hits.
As this is the first time the writer
has seen Miss Msude, comparison of her
work in other seasons is impossible, but
she exhibited a keen comedy senee, per
fect poise and complete mastery of many
moods in this comedy which puts her in
the first rank of comedy experts.
McKay Morris and Stuart Walker have
never appeared to better advantage than
as the two husbands.
Opinion: Here is a spicy, reckless
little comedy which la brilliantly writ- 1
ten and splendidly acted and is really
sauce for the goose.
And “Too Many Husbanda” will not
damage your morals, except it mlgLt
make you read snappy stories. >
“Too Many Husbands,” now at the Mn
rat, is delightfully innocent entertain
ment, W. D. H,

formance of ‘‘The Monte Carlo Girls,”
the verdict of the audience wus one of
genuine approval.
Aa Miss Hyatt sang the melodious
Jingle, about eighteen chorus girls ap
peared dreased 'in conventional male
evening dress,, and they made a decided
impression.
This Johnny chorus number is a real
gem and proves that the producers of
the shows at the Park this season are
living up to their promise of using both
| brains and money in their productions.
| The new edition of “The Monte Carlo
| Girls’’ of course contains' some es the
! old stuff which they can never eliminate
because their audiences demand it, but
as a whole this year's production is a
clean, snappy, well mounted and '"a fast
moving entertainment.
Another favorite were the Three
Rounders, -who make up a very comps
tent singing trio, who can sing and
yet realize the Importance, of injecting
the proper amount of comedy into their
melody.
Then there Is a blackface comedian
with this show which held up the prog
ress of thg entertainment by anew Jazs
song called “The Shimmy Blues."
• None of the chorus look like they arc j
near candidate* to the old woman's
home, as they appear youthful and dance j
better than they sing.
The costumes are cut along the lines
of the modern fashion of nslng as little j
material as possible, altbongb the coa- i
tomes are neTr daring
There are lota of enjoyable minute*
in “The Monte Carlo Girin" ahow, which
may be seen all week at the Park.

THE BROAD WAT.
The new bill at the Broadway con
sists of the following acts: KtbeJya.
Mae and Laverne In dances; Omega la '
“Omega's Ms"; the Moran Bisters, Maks
lane's Hawaiian*; the Trolley Car lino,!
acrobats; Justin and LaMar, and Prin
cess Lula, a dancer.
JAZZ ACTS SOW
AT THE LYRIC.
And f'ieh Jazz'
It H'fiaaU that the whole world was
j possessed by Jg it fiend* when we aaw
I yesterday's performance at the Lyric.
The whole bill la mad# up of Jazz
of some kind, even In the songs and
dancing.
Brownlee’s Jazz Band wae the star
J member of the Jazz bill.
And Dolly Wilson was not far behind
the head of the list.
The Brownlee’s band Is s playier of
| Jazz music as It should be played.
Seven members of the band produce
, harmony that la almost irresistible.
Bnt the best part of their act ie the
performance of two youngsters who have
natural grace and ability.
They are Marcel Hardl* and Frankie
Alexander, both In their early “teens,”
but with enough talent in finglng and
dancing to carry off moat of the honor*
of the act
They literally take the audience off
their feet.
Dolly Wilson la an Indianapolis prod
uct who has a distinctive aerie* of songa
that stamp her as being above the
average.
She carried the Jazs Into her set, and
had jazz songa, Jazs music and added
a. great deal to the success of tbs Mil.
Even th# accordlans Jazzed.
Mlnetti and Ralbls have something
that is out of the ordinary; a dust Rf j
accordlans combined with humor and
pantomime.
They get It “across,” and make the
headers of the bill work for their honors.
O. K. Legel and Company.
That Is the name of a Juggling act
that Is full of eccentric tricks on the
part of T/egel, who is the only one of
the troupe of two to appear on the
stage.
Legal keeps his partner busy "back
stnge” with his apparatus.
Dorsey, Peltier and Schvartz, the trio
which has Just finished an engagement
at one of the local moving picture houses,
also appear on the bill, and to much
hotter advantage on the stnge than be
fore the white curtain.
Fenle and Florence are a surprise to
the audience all the time they are be
fore the footlights. t
They have songs and dances, and are
other exponents of the Jazz movement.
The Six Tumbling Tip Tops have some
of the most meritorious acrobatic feats
that have been seen at the Lyric for some
time.

SHIBLEY MASON
AT THE RIALTO.
Shirley Mason ie a little orphan girl
In her iateac photoplay, “The Little Wan
derer,” which is being tbown this week
at the Rialto.
This play gives her a role that Is well
suited to this dainty little star, that of
a troubled little girl who finds a sweet
heart and a father on the same day.
“The Little Wanderer” Is another of
the pleys that are giving Miss Mason a
big place in Indianapolis, and closely fol
lows her success In “Treasure Island.”
The vaudeville part of the bill starts
with Gailinl and Marguerite in a singing
and dancing act.
Willard Hutchinson and company give
a comedy sketch, and Rosie lUfel and
company appear in a surprise set.
The Martino brothers present "The Man
Who Grows," snd Moore and Ashy fln
iehea the performance.
And Schnopp's Jars orchestra provides
some of the Jazs music that seems to be
spreading all over town.
HOROSCOPE
“The stars incline, but do not compel.”
WEDNESDAY. ACO. IS.
This should be an unusually lucky
day for nil lines of bust ness.
Mercury is tn sn aspect as sxceedlngly
favorable for whatever has to do with
the public. It is an suspicions time to
solicit the good will of one's fellow
beings.
Political work is held to be especially
well directed during this posting of the
stars, which gives wdtaen as well as
men pattence and the will to weigh
policies and opinions.
Violent storms will continue through
the autumn which will be unseasonably
warm late in October
The placets supposed to encourage
constructive ability now have power for
good. Both in the realm of mind and
the material world there trill be a
building up to what has been destroyed.
Money should be conserved at this
time for there may be a brief period of
stringency.
The sun is In a place read as favor
able to the president and his policies.
Persons whose birthdate it is should
plan a year of conservative action. The
health should be safeguarded.
Children born ou this day may meet
much opposition in life, but tbeae per
