NEW TORK. April 7. tSpectal.)
Troubles are pllina; thick and fast upon
Frederick Thompson, playwright. " A
few davs ago Maoel Taliaferro, actress,
hi wife, brought unit and obtained
decree of divorce from Thompson, and
this Is now followed by dispossess pro
ceedings against the I, una Park Com
pany, controlled by Thompson. The
company operates Luna Park in Coney
Island.
This action, which sets forth that
Thompson's concern is In such severe
straits that it will be unable to open
Its doors unless aided by outside capi
tal, comes as the climax of a series of
misfortunes In the course of a few
months. Thompson's plays have been
so unsuccessful since last Kali that he
l as virtually srlven up the play-producing-
business. His financial losses
have been heavy, and. while once rated
aa a millionaire, the playwright seems
In fair way to be rendered penniless if
his streak of misfortune keeps up. To
Add ro It all Thompson has been in Ill
health through all his troubles, so much
so that at several times It was reported
that he would be forced to enter a
sanitarium.
In tha proceedlnas brought against
the Luna Park company It Is chanced
that the Luna Park company owea sev
eral thousand dollars for rent to the
Sea rteach corporation and to Charles
C. Overton, owner of a small part of
the amusement park. In a statement
Issued by James A. Nelson, secretary
and treasurer of the land company. It Is
set forth Thompson's concern is In fi
nancial straits so severe It will be un
able to open its doors to the public un
less aided by outside capital.
Thompson's career aa a showman
reallv started when he and his partner,
pundy. achieved triumph throuah their
amusement device "A Trip to the Moon."
from which Luna park derived Its name.
Thompson and Tmndv built the Hippo
drome, which they afterwards turned
over to the Phuberta and when his
partner died the younrer man entered
the theatrical producing frame on a bis;
scale.
Several of his productlona were hiarh
lc (ticressftil. among- them. "Brewster's
.Millions." "Via Wireless" and "Polly of
the Circus." in which Mabel Taliaferro
first was starred. Under Thompson's
management Luna Park aJwayn seemed
to be successful. Miss Taliaferro and
Thompson were married four years a-o.

The woman managed to get her chil

The warning probably saved scores of

A peddler who travels in the country

his rounds In a boat that he moored to
a tree at night. The last night he

water around his bed. The only Im

With this he cut an opening in the
roof, and finding his boat and stores
safe, escaped.
Grocers, butchers and other small

SUFFRAGISTS SEEK
VOTE OF WORKERS
Women Campaigners Would
Enlist Laborers in Their
Cause.
SOCIALISTS ARE SOLICITED
Mrs. Ehrott Makes FlrM Speech
From Tonneau of Auto at Pendle
ton Real Fight to Start
at' Later Date.
Enlistment of laboring men in the
cause of woman suffrage will be the
object of leaders who are organizing
the state In preparation for the No
vember election, when the amendment
to the constitution granting women the
right to vote will come up for the con
sideration of the voters.
Already considerable work has been
done along this line. The Central La
bor Council has long been on record as
In favor of the enfranchisement of
women. At the state convention held
at The Dalles several weeks ago the
State Federation of Labor reiterated
and emphasised Its support or equal
suffrage.
Mrs. Sarah Bard Field Elirgott. one
of the organizers of the state central
committee of the Oregon Kqual Suf
frage League, has appeared a -number
of times before various labor organiza
tions in the city to speak in behalf of
the cause. Several weeks ago she ad
dressed a large meeting of the Central
Labor Council, composed of delegates
from all unions in the city. She was
enthusiastically applauded. Last Tues
day night she spoke upon the relation
of equal suffrage to the working class
before 400 members of the Building
Trades Council.
Other Organisations Sought.
Labor organizations, however, have
not been singled out in the effort to
reach the working class. The Socialist
organisations and other societies whose
membership is comprised chiefly of
workers will be addressed by suffrage
leaders. " An address to Socialist Local
No. 4 m-as given last night by Mrs.
Ehrgott at IJSH Second street.
It is among the ranks of the laborers
and of the farmers that the suffragists
expect to obtain their most telling sup
port. Suffragists are now engaged chiefly
in organization work. Whllo consider
able work has been accomplished in
this connection, the real campaigning
will not ba undertaken' until the bat
tle has farther advanced. Suffrage
leaders believe that the atatc should
be thoroughly organized, and all the
ground work should be laid for the
campaign before the time is ripe for
waging the final fight.
The last few months before the elec
tion will be the most interesting Ore
gon lias ever seen as regards suffrage,
and will be one of the most interest
ing of any political fight ever held In
the state. Among the devices resorted
to will be the automobile campaign,
public mass meetings, and precinct
work by bands of organized workers.
All Opportunities Grasped.
Although the active campaign work
is scheduled to begin later, suffragists
will lose no opportunities to urge their
cause. The week preceding the last.
Mrs. Ehrgott. while engaged in or
ganization work in Pendleton, stood
in an automobile while addressing
an open air meeting. This Is the first
auto campaigning Oregon has known.
This kind of campaigning was not in
the original schedule, hut Mrs. Ehrgott
was prevailed upon by friends. She
waji presented -by Stephen A. Lowell,
candidate for United States Senator.
The "throng that heard the speech in
cluded a number of cowboys, farmers
and ranchers. A number of Indians
trom the reservation also were atten
tive listeners.
"I regard It as very significant that
after the meeting, when several women
passed literature through the crowd,
not one of them was1 treated discour
teously. Six years ago when a num
ber of suffrage workers attempted the
same thing In Pendleton, they were
openly insulted." said Mrs. Ehrgott.
Late in the week Mrs. Ehrgott and
Mrs. Sarah E. Commerford. her asso
ciate, expect to go to The Dalles, Hood
River and the surrounding country,
and aftr that It Is planned to visit a
number of Southern Oregon towns.

after pleading with John Secrlst. Chief
of roller, to "please spare the life of
Fluffle a lltle whllo longer till I get
the money." The date of Fluf tie's
execution had already been postponed
several days on account of Jennie's
ardent pleading.
Unknown to her parents. Jennie had
opened her lltle bank and taken out
every penny." Here's 62 cents," she ex
plained, "won't you please give me
back Fluffle. It's all I've) got. and I
don't want Fluffle to die ho was so
good to me and I miss him so. The

melted and he offered to forfeit his fee
if 2 could be paid the city for the

Thei policeman and the City Clerk at
the City Hall contributed this and had
Fluffle registered with the good dogs
In the city. Jennie Is the happiest
little girl In the'clty.

ILLINOIS MOTHERS FORM "PRO

Suitors of Daughters Listed. .
Less Lottery Is Aim.
CATLIN, 111., April 7. fSpecial.)
Young men of Illinois are being card
ir.dexed. tabulated and checked up as
to their eligibility as suitors for tho
prim young misses in the rural parts
of the state. Mothers in Central Illinois
have formed a mothers' protective as
sociation which includes a thorough
Investigation as to the character of
the young men In the various towna
and "the result of these investigations
are interchanged.
If the would-be fiance smokes cigar
ettes, doesn't go to church, doesn't
stay at home in the evenings, drinks or
has poor business prospects he has
small chance of keeping these facts
from the Catlin mothers and should the
parents object to any of the habits of
the man who is courting their daugh
ter, the chances for a match will sud
denly vanish.
Catlin mothers are trying by this
svstem to place into oblivion the say
ing "marriage Is a lottery." The moth
ers' association doesn't expect to do
away with the lottery entirely but it
does Think that by this system there
may be many more prlzo packages
placed In the grabbag and they think
that the chances of their daughters'
drawing undesirables will be greatly
diminished.
The questions which are asked con
cerning each of the young men in Cat
lin and neighborhood are:
Does he smoke cigaretlesT
Does he drink?
Is lie known to he profane or vulvar.
De he read good books?
Ioes he go to church or Sunday ichool?
je he spend his evenings at home or
In saloons?
Is he considerate of his mother and sla
ters? What are his business prospects?
In addition there are a number of
blank lines in the form to be filled In
with any additional information not
covered by these questions.
