sic committee, reported that plana had
been made to supplement every session
of the conference with music and tna
at each meeting there will be singing
by a chorus of 400 to 1000 voices. The
progranime Is so crowded with speak
ers that it was deemed best by tne mu
sic committee not to undertake the

at first contemplated. One of the
special features planned la a men s
chorus. All music of the conference
will be under the direction of Frofes
sor William H. Boyer.

ple will be arranged for in the grand

Announcement was made that R. W
Raymond would head the finance com
mi t tee. Mr. Raymond said that the
policy of the campaign to raise funds
for the conference would be a plan to
reach everybody in the city and not
tax & few business men with the addi
tional money needed.
George L. Baker, chairman of the

"I think he is the most promising
pitcher in the league, said Watelle
last night at the WUlard Hotel. "He

President Watellet and Manager
Lynch say they will make no attempt
to bold onto Ben Hunt if Ed Watkln

performance of "Cinderella" at
the Lyric this week and attested to
the popularity of the old-time ' story
and the up-to-date manner of inter

songs, the rosebud chorus is more at

than ever and the new members of tne
cast all have good voices and dramatic
ability.

TREATIES TO BE RENEWED
Secretary Bryan Announces That
Seven Will Be Renewed.
WASHINGTON, May 15. Special ar
bitration treaties between the United
States and seven other countries whioh
expire by limitation this year will be
renewed by the State Department, if
the governments are willing.
Secretary Bryan made this announce
ment today in connection with the
proposed immediate renewal of the
British-American treaty, which ter
minates on June 4.
Such special treattea to which the
United States is a party will expire
during the year In the following order
Spain. June 2; Great Britain. June 4;
Norway. June 24: Sweden. August 18;
Japan. August 24; Portugal, November

The Franco-American treaty, which
would have expired in February, al
ready has been renewed for another
term of five years.
A similar treaty between the United
States and Mexico expires on June 27,
Whether this is renewed will depend
upon the relations existing between
the countries at that time. Unless the
American Government has recognized
a government in Mexico by that date,
of course, there will be no renewal of
the treaty.

NEW YORK. May 12. The Sultan of
Turkey, through his legal representa-rrv-e,
was notified today that In an
American law court his position is the
same as that of his humblest subject.
The question of the Sultan's rights as
a litigant arose in the Supreme Court,
which has before It the Turkish ruler's

surance money on the life of H. 3.
Tavshanjlan, a wealthy Armenian mer
chant, who was assassinated here in
1907.
The policy in question was in favor
f Mr. Tavshanjlan's mother, who until
her death, three years ago, resided in
Armenia. Justice Davis heard argu
ments today on the demurrer to the
Sultan's action interposed by the cus
todians of the Tavshanjlan estate in
New York. These defendants asked
that the Sultan give the customary se
curity for the payment of costs.
Justice Davis said he had received a
letter from the Turkish Consul-General
here requesting that in view of the I
plaintiffs distinguished rank he be re
leased from this obligation. In denying
the request Justice Davis said that it
did not matter whether a plaintiff was
a potentate or one of his subjects and
that Kings, Sultans and Emperors
should not Import their domestic affairs
into American courts.
' ' Empress.
FROM a bill of unusual variety ana
quality at the Empress this week
it is difficult to assign pride of place
to any one act for in addition to the
three which divide headline honors,
there are two other acts which could
easily share the position.
There is any amount or space ana
DDortunlty for "situations" in the
sketch entitled "The Love Specialist,"
the vehicle for Hayden Stevenson, Lou
ise Vallentine and Sylvia Starr. Briefly
the Plot is this: Husband Bob Andrews
grows cold and apathetic In tears and
deBpalr his wife rings up a noted love
specialist for advice. ttuDDy s anecuons
must be reawakened at all costs, so
hey decide to stage a drama at the
Andrews home. In this the specialist
plays up to Bob, flirts with him, thrills
him with admiration, love and so forth
very cleverly does she do It, too and
then, because this Is but a business
with her and only one of so many such
situations, the specialist leaves. Bob
falls into his wife's arms and they live
happily ever afterward.
Jere Sanford returns again as the
rustic boy of chores and the audience
could not have enough of him. His
really good voice and yodellng capabili
ties blend nicely with a gentle and
whimsical humor and an excellent
make-up.
From a musical point of view tne
mpress has offered nothing better of
ate than the Waterbury brothers and
Tenny, two white men and one coal
black 'one. Between them they man
age to Introduce an extraordinary
number of instruments. They play se
lections on wine glasses and the nigger
man gets in more than his fair share
of comedy, refreshingly new at times.
Then there s Marguerite with a query
for a surname, a shapely character
comedienne, who sings two songs and
does a quick change act, showing the
difference between the real and the
stage idea of a dairymaid, a seaside
girl, a football player and a dancer.
As ai finale she swings right out Into
the audience, distributing flowers, and
doing everything but fall off the swing.
Joe Fanton and a couple more well
proportioned atheltes give a series of
entirely new and clever gymnastic feats
on flying rings, while Lester Leigh and
La Grace, who open the bill, rush the
audience rapidly through an act of
Juggling. Pictures of Champoeg and
F. X. Matthieu complete the bill.
his talk the applause was thunderous.
The unusual aspect of a pardoned con
vict telling of prison life and its inti
mate details which could in no other
way be known is attention-command'
ing.
"The Dollmakers" Dream," a sketch
that Introduces two diminutive girl
and (presumably) their parents is de
llghtful entertainment. One of the
little maidens is June Roberts dainty
and pretty as the French dolly sh
represents. Roberts pere is a German
doll-maker. Roberts Tnere Is wonder
fully clever in a characterization of
the tongue-wagging wife of the doll
maker, and little Miss June is the dolly
who comes to life and dances beautl
fully. A still smaller Miss Roberts adds
Joy with a few gay steps of her own.
Reeves and Werner, big, happy chaps.
make great friends with the audience
by their songs. Their voices blend
musically and their selections are of
the sort the audience would order If
allowed.
An act that sets the kiddies shout
lng with mirth is Shaw's comedy cir
cus. There are monkeys, ponies an
dogs, each with some specialty to of
fer. As a final delight they bring on
a lazy-looking white mule and offer
inducements for riders. Three appear,
and the merriment increases as the
mule throws each aspirant. The Sere
nada Trio is composed of a comedian
In a dress suit and two women in flow
ing Greek draneries. The man and
one of the women play on harps and
they all sing. The act was encored
several times.
Carl and Lillian Mueller open the bill
with an exhibition in balancing, throw
ing. Juggling and general manipula
tions of discs and hoops, which is ex
ceedingly good and goes with pleasing
rapidity. The Pantagescope completes
the bllL Not the least In the entertain
lng features is .the overture "Pique
Dame," from Suppe, by the orchestra.
with H. K. Evenson .directing.

Pantages.
NCE again the praise agent at
Pantages has told the truth the
bill is a succession of excellencies. Not
one act that isn't good, and many that
are of unusual merit.
The headllner is novel to the polntj
of distinction as a vaudeville act.
Prison reformers are often heard on
the lecture platform, the pulpit and the
press, but they speak in the abstract.
Ed Morrell, who spent 16 years of his
life in San Quentln and Folsom prisons,
and who was the youngest member of
the notorious Evans and Sontag gang
of California outlaws, is on the bill
this week, and what he has to say
enthralls and interests. He has per
sonality, and is decidedly more effective
than anr mere lecturer on prison re
form could be. He describes his life
In the prisons, gives demonstrations of
the punishments meted out to prison
ers and makes a tremendously dramatic
recital. His audience listened with
closest attention, and at the close of
Orpbenm.
F the Orpheum offered nothing but
Gus Edwards and his song revue of
1913 the entertainment would still take
on tremendous value. For Mr. Ed
wards' offering is a miniature musical
comedy with no long waits, no tire
some and irrelevant dialogue and no
vocal pyrotechnics by some would-be
prima donna. The revue is called "The
Fountain of Youth, and beats all hoi
low the one Ponce de Leon grew old
hunting for. It is divided into six
spouts, and everybody effervesces, bub
bles like champagne and intoxicates
With delight. Mr. Edwards makes -his

melange. As the author of popular
melodies bis name is a household one.
and these songs, happy combinations
of clever words and bright, tuneful
music he has woven into an act. In
pout one he sings "If I Were a Mil
llonaire" with a chorus of seven news
boys, each of whom has a fine voice.
Spout two is an Italian setting for the
song "Italian Romeo, ' with Mr. .Ed
wards as Romeo and Lillian Boardman,
who has a splendid soprano, singing
Juliet.
There are lots of little Romeos and
Juliets, too, and two cunning tykes,
"Cuddles," a black-haired adorable
baby girl, and Georgie, an impish lad,
travesty everything in the act.
Spout three is a vocal burlesque cf
"Alias Jimmy Valentine with a hair
dozen little people let out of the safe
when It Is opened.. They group them
selves on the piano while Mr. Edwards
plays and sings. In this specialty lit
tle hold-up girls run through the the
ater aisles with flash lights and
"Georgie" Imitates Joe Welsh, David
Warfleld, George M. Cohan and some
of the others.
In spout four Mr. Edwards sings bits
of melody that serve to link together
a series of living song pictures illus
trating the good, old favorites he has
composed.
Of these a few are, "By the Light ot
the Silvery Moon"; Anna Held's "I
Want Something New to Play Wlz,"
"See Saw," "My Cousin Caruso," "He's
Me Pal," "Sunbonnet Sue" and a dozen
others. Then in spout five Mr. Edwards
sings his newest composition, "I'll Get
You," with cunning little Cuddles flirt
ing and singing from one of the boxes.
Spout six is a scene of Central Park
Lake and they all sing "On a Beauti
ful Night." The voices are beautifully
blended the specialties go with
breath-catching rapidity and the danc
ing is delightful. Mr. Edwards' voice
is big and beautiful, he aims to please
and makes everybody happy. The
chorus of boys voices Is truly remark
able in its musical value.
The rest of the bill is good too.
Kramer and Morton, two black dots, are
comedians, who sing and dance into
favoritism. Les Alvarese, a girl and
man, open the bill in a wonderful Eu
ropean gymnastic novelty, of the hair-
raising variety. , General Plsano, a
sharp-shooter, amazes and interests
with his target shooting. William H.
