TORMENTED LAD SHOOTS Boy, rinched by Playmate, res Gun He Pldn't Know Was Loaded. "If you pinch me again I will shoot you." These words, accredited to 14-year-old Paul Hanset. of Montavllla, led to his shooting Owen Loveall, 15 years old, yesterday afternoon, while the two lads were playing in a field beyond the suburb. The bullet took effect in Loveall's collar bone, ranging downward. Unless some complications set In. he will recover. Alarmed by what he had done, Han set ran to a nearby house and con fessed. The lad led a party to his wounded playmate, and on an Impro vised stretcher the boy was carried to the house. The two lads had been playing at war and had a 2i-callbre rifle in their pos session. A quarrel arose when the older boy commenced pinching his companion. The little fellow's threats were un heeded. Loveall pinched again either to show his contempt for warnings or his fearlessness. Then Hanset fired. f (aiaiMswisMiaiinaiinwniiwiii m wnwanift ! ( 1 " New Bills Open at Theaters "THE CLIMAX." AT THE BUN GALOW. ' lAilgl Golfantl.' Walter Wilson Pletro Golfantl ...Albert Laticha John Raymond Edwin August Adollna von Hagen Ruby Bridges JUST what factors tend to create the wholesale charm and Irresistible per fume of romances and dreams of "The Cli max." as put on at yesterday's matinee at the Bungalow, would be hard to tell. There is any amount of heart Interest, and real' human nature, pathos which Is followed Instantaneously with delicate and clean humor and sundry dashes of realism, piquant or subtle, to give zest to an otherwise purely Ideal construction. Superlative artistry of workmanship and technique par excellence are presupposed when It Is known that there are only four characters to give life and action to the perfectly-balanced three acts. The story of the play is soon told. ftde lina. a genuine young girl with big am bitions, receives encouragement in her proposed stage career from her Italian teacher. Golfantl, and his son Pletro. Her lover. Dr. Raymond, seeks to save her from what he deems a life of vileness. At his advice Adellna undergoes an op eration on her throat. Falling victim to a weak spot In his caliber, the doctor by clever mental suggestion Induces Adellna to believe she has lost her voice. Later she consents to mairy him but on her wedding day discovers she can use her voice, and we are left there with her promise to Raymond that maybe after the years have brought forgiveness per haps The cast is uniformly good, with none of the disturbing element of "staglness" brought to us. Walter Wilson, as Golfantl, the old mu sician, mellow with the expsrience of years and life. loving with the invincible ardor of the real Bohemia, is the suavely, positive, dominant figure In the piny. His comedy is exquisite, whimsical and sunny, with an undercurrent of pathos, and he makes of the character a human, unforgetabie and living friend. Albert Latscha, as Golfantl's son Pletro, Is laughably like his virile, manly old Roman father. Mr. Latsch Interprets the character as a composite blending of Nea politan hot-headed . Impetuosity and the refreshing Juvenility of a young Ameri can. Ruby Bridges has a sweet, trained voice and her fine portrayal of Adelina the ambitious is sincere and natural. The role of John Raymond, the doctor, as given by Edwin August, Is perhaps the most precarious in the play. One small deviation, either in the direction of much bigotry or friendliness, and his In terpretation would not meet the sym pathy and Interest accorded it There are many brilliant lines and much homely, pleasant banter, while the allur ing Incidental music by Mr. Carl Brail Is in good taste. His "Song of the Soul" is not. perhaps, the best thing of its kind ever composed, but it has a haunt ing little refrain which will stay with you for many days. Alburtus and Arzuelia at the Baker. 71 LBURTU9 and Arzuella are holding J- forth for one week at the Baker, beginning with the matinee yesterday afternoon. They are alleged hypnotists, whose only recommending feature Is their good looks and apparent youthful ners. It-has been several long days since hypnotists wandered this way, and, of course, their act is a novelty. Alburtus. dressed like a high-class waiter, selects several men from the audience, brings them to his feet, figura tively speaking, and gives them antl somnambulism suggestions. They Im mediately perform stunts, such as taking oft their shoes and stockings to fish in an Imaginary stream; organizing a band and parading the aisles, while the audience rocSied Its sides In laughter. The piece de resistance of the hypnotic part of the programme Is the efforts of the gang to blow out the electric lights. Alburtus Is assisted by a clever little damsel, Arzuella, who really Is three fourths of the show. She answers any thing In the world you want to know, ever knew or ever will know. Her ability Is almost alarming. The near psychological aspect the situation pre sents much food for those who dabble in the supernatural. WHEREJTO DINE.

The comedy i new hera and but lit tle heralded for Its real value. It Is a continual scream with scarcely an In terval of seriousness, and the laughable situations ara cleverly arranged and portrayed by one of the best comedy companies seen here In months. The plot deals with the anxiety of the cowpunchers of the Flying Heart ranch In New Mexico to win back a phonograph and several Items of paraphernalia lost to the outfit of an adjoining ranch through wagers on a foot-race in which their man had been pitted against a "ringer." J. Walllngford Speed, a Tale man and a college mate of Jack Chapln, the owner of the Flying Heart, pays the ranch a visit and is Inclined to- boast of fictitious prowess as a track athlete. The cowboys listen with awe to hia claims and Immediately get him to con sent to run the man of the rival crew, who trimmed them for their belongings, including the phonograph, around which a great deal of excitement hinges. Speed, after accepting the challenge, banks on securing the services of Cul ver Covington, champion 1nter-colleglate sprinter of Yale and America to run In his stead, for Covington wires that he Intends to visit the ranch. However, Covington appears on crutches and the situations brought about by this calamity and the machinations of Berkeley Fresno,- Speed's rival in .love, who in structs the cowpunchers to force Speed, Into all manner of unheard-of training stunts, furnish comedy .that is side splitting. Speed finally scores over all by "fixing" his opponent who is known to Speed's trainer, "Larry" Glass, as a "ringer." As J. Walllngford Speed, James Spotts wood is splendid, and Genevieve ClifTe as Helen Blake, Is a delightful little actress who easily wins the lion's share of honors. Eugene O'Rourke. who will be remembered here as the "Unknown" of "mean disposition" fame in "Little Johnny Jones," Is a genuine comedy In himself. His quaint "pugdom" expres sions are a hit, and. for the most part, are new. Frank Wunderlee as Berkeley Ftesno. portrays the role cleverly. He was here as "Silent" Murphy In the College Widow. Willis Brown as Willie, the killer, one of the "stung" cowpunchers, Is one of the best stage cowboys to vielt Port land In many a day. "St. Elmo" at the Lyric Theater.- AT THcl LYRIC yesterday afternoon the week's bill opened with "St. Elmo," a dramatization of Augusta J. Bvan6' novel. For pure unadulterated unhapplness "St. Elmo" carries the palm easily. Drama, drama everywhere and not one drop of think. The audience was torn between tears and more tears during four acts of woe. The story is so wejl known that It needs no repeti tion. The mournful affair was well at tended and everyone received their pro rata of weeps. The part of Edna Earl, a child of the hills, unversed in worldly ways, and Irnnwlntf nniicht bllt ITOOd. Is mOSt capably portrayed by the leading wo man. Priscilla K.nowies. The character role of St. Elmo is Just .-v. A tm.iHii. tt iTi t to be as portrayed by Sidney Payne, a selfish. cynical sconer, wno laugns anas v mx and man, and who Is finally converted by Edna. One single ray of comedy permeates the gloom and sermonettes. In Robert Athon's really comical role of the country boy. Pretty Alice Condon doesn't have much of a fling at the lines this week, but displays some good-looking clothes. Frances Field, as St. Elmo's mother, Is nortlAlllarlv D-OoH CTTlH TDmBr Potter S3 the Rev. Mr. Hammond the clergyman also enines. The interpretation of St. Elmo by the Athon Stock Company leaves little to be desired. Northwestern People In New York. NEW YORK, Oct. 3. (Special.)
