BT LEONE CASS BAER- JCST because aha overheard two of tba little alsterhood of fellnea ear ing that she probably couldn't do any thing but awlm or dle. Annette Keller iran took It upon heraelf to prove that na could, a sor. of coming; to the rescue of Annette Kellerman. aa it -were. Anyone who doubts It abould ace her toe stepping ana isuiuns around on a tight wire and giving an cventng-dress edition of an English chap- N'ot that her wire walking Is anything to make Bird Mtllmann or other circus queens go to an early prave over, nor that -er toe dancing will make Pavlowa or Genee look to th-tr laurels, but ifa an achievement slid you've got to hand It to her for imontralir.K that sne isn i a one talented woman. You'd think she"d be content to go through life heralded as he Is as the perfect physical woman the Lord's masterpiece and the cham- ntn tiiver of the world and way points. Instead of which she branches out and l'jrns a flock of accomplishments, any ne of which would be an achievement and a career for the average woman. As n envy and Jealousy promoter In the hearta of us girls Annette is the ringleader. Hippodrome. She encases her perrec ttone in a Diet rea Minm " by the same measurements as her akin, and iievlls away on and off a high fining board, leaping through space no the cool-looking pool and playing around Ilka a lady fish on a holiday. All dripping wet she flashes out of the tank, runs up the painted steps and poises for a brief moment, a f i hourtte of carmine, topped by a smil ing face, and then she Jackknlfes or fomersaulta clean as a whistle straight Into the water, grinning like an implsn bov throurh the glass at her audience. Miss Kellermnn's act would be a dis tinct noveltv if ahe did only the div- .t. f.ir she is herself an Individual of Importance and her diving is exquisite. j;ut she makes it even more unusual and entertaining by adding her other ventures and a pleasant personal chat to atrlng along her appearances. In between times there's a trio of heel tappers shea brought along. Kerr and MeMon. a man and an adorable blonde b4by girl with funy hair and a mad little body that swirls and leaps and joes rraiy with dancing. Jack Coogan. with extremely thin lgs. does a clever caricature dance and sons as one of the divertisemcnts In .Mi. -s Kellennan's act. Jnfrest centers about fifty-fifty on to fascinating rolk. one is oene r.reene. chsracter singer of all the s"ngs one lovea to hear, and Margaret Young, a diminutive but plump Sophie Tucker. Sho sings blue songs about sweet dandles and sweet mammas and Leiiic kind to your husband because good men are scarce nowadays. . and the dips her kneea and tosses her head and roils her eyes until the audience oould eat out of her hands. One bal lad, -oh. How She Could Sing" and "I'm a Jais Baby." are expressive of Miss Young herself. Another, a wop study M m da Boss." Is delightful. The nicest thing about both Miss Young's singing and Mr. Greene's Is their excellent diction. Tou don't have to struggle to hear what they're say ing, and that's soiuethlng. Mr. Greene has a smiling, friendly way. he's all pep and hla songs come over like a Niagara, with point and melody a-plenty, lie tells stories, darky stories after he has made up in ebony In front of his audience. He docs a clever Chinese onium-smoker song and occasioned a riot with his French accent In one ng. His "Johnnies in Town" aa tireene does it Is a classic, in comedy. Edthe and Eddie Adai offer -The Foot Shop." In which Miss Adair la the Inevitable blase shopper and Eddie la a tumble-wit ted clerk. The repartee ex change Is clever and the idea la novel. Florence Kubey. a youthful girl, sings In a aweet voice while she fiddles nicely. Lester, a ventriloquist, has a divert lrc argument with a loquacioua dummy. The bill closes with an unusual turn In which Brodeau manipulatea a beau tiful little shite dog. Silver Moon, quite as If the animal had no bones. P. s. There will be no show on Wednesday night. A VERSATILE and clever trio are the Anders sisters, who vie for head line place with King A Thornton on the Hippodrome bill this week. The Anders sisters have an excellent offer ing In songa and dancing, adding con siderably to their entertainment by their lightning change of costumes, done before the audience. The act la well ataged and the girls' costumes are dainty and effective. One of the sis ters does a "Yama Tama'' dance and pontomine In an artistic costume, and a peppy, acrobatic dance by the two smaller sisters closes the clever act. In "The Village Priest." . in which Virginia Thornton and Charles King star, assisted by Victor Donald, there is a keen appeal to Irish good nature and wit. Father Donovan has a bubbling, good humor that even tually breaka through the gloom of Mary Logan and her fiance. Johnny Murphy, occasioned by a spirited quar rel due to Mary's aspirations for a pub lic career. She enters merrily without knocking, in the garb of a suffragette, and soon starts "knocking" poor John ny until his peppery temper explodes. Father Donovan, a character wel por trayed by Charles King, laughs them Into good-natured reconciliation. The closing number on the bill Is one of the best acts on the list. The Artois trio proclaim without a doubt that there Is a good bit of monkey in all humanity. Theirs Is the simon-pure kind, and they demonstrate the fact freely with their novel stunts on the bars Their pantomime Is side-splitting, and the 4J white ruffles adorn ing their snow-white suits add to their comedy. The Crawfords. one a plump little maid, evidently not as heavy as she looks, and the other a clever young chap, present many unique and new stunts on the tight rope in "A Bit of Everything." They have a dash of song, patter and tumbling. Bessie Clifton is very clever In "The Village Cut-L"p." her impersonation of a country maid, together with her songs and stories, - scoring a big hit with the audience. Dainty, peppy, Titian-haired Lea Francis and her partner, George Hume have a good offering In "Just Happen ings." In which they sing a bit, josh each other, dance a bit and give a gen erous bunch of clever dialogue. The photoplay has the popular fVlll lam Desmond as the star, and its title, "The Prodigal Liar." Is evidence of the numerous intricate situations in which the heroine and her co-workers find themselves. She Is a young maid with a mad desire for romance and adven ture, and she gets more than she an ticipated inr her wildest dreams. The scenic beauty of the play appeals to easterner and westerner alike, and it abounds with action. Alcazar. .A' Lyric. L FRANKS as Ike Leeehinsk! brought forth one of the best musical comedies yet staged at the I.rlc theater when "Cherry Blossoms" opened f r the week yesterday after noon. Ike had a beautiful daughter w ho was in love with a young man who was as "poor as Job's turkey." Ike bad a lot of money, but he didn't want to part with It. His only falling was the desire to rave women make "eyes" at him. and then he was tree to confess that he waa an easy mark. Harry Bright. played by Jewell I -a Velle. fixed it up with Ike to meet the daughter, but he did it In such a way that Ike did not know that it waa his daughter he was making love to. Finally Harry won the girl, and then telegraphed back to 'the old man' for bts congratulations. Just before Harry bad left Ike said that he would like to see the man that could slip over anything on him. He was shown. The musical Interruptions were pleas ing, but the big number was the at tempted "Hitchey. Kltchey. Hula. Hula dance put on by Billy Bingham. It was a riot, and she had to dance it four times before the audience would almw the show to proceed. The opening chorus of "Rosebuds' sang "When the Fighting Irish Come Home. "And That Am t All and "Any. thing Is Nice If it Comes from Dixie land." Billy Bingham and chorus were featured In "Dixie Is Dixie Once More while "Jerry" was the selection by which Dot Raymond made such a de nrtrd hit. "Lm-la hammy. Here s My Share was sung by Jewell La Velle. who brought out the victory liberty loan by exhlbit Irfs: one of State Director John L..Eth ertdge's now famous "V" posters. "Salvation Rose" was the means of the chorus and Jewell La Velle to make a good showing. La Velle sang on a moment'a notice, Ben Broderick having bern scheduled to sing but was taken l'l. "Cherry Blossoms" will remain as this weeks attraction at the Lyric Next week will be "Wixard of Wise land." , Strand. OT STEWART, heralded as one of the f teel-nerved daredevils of film dom, waa featured In "The Silent Rider,' which opened yesterday afternoon a the Strand theater. Cowboys, cattle rustlers and all that go with them made their appearance during the dis play of the film and several pistol fights which resulted "fatally" for those opposed to Roy kept the audi ence in suspense. A cattleman of Wyoming had com plained to the authorities that his cattle were being stolen, but the sheriff of the county said that he was without help. Roy Stewart, as a stranger, made his appearance on the farm and lmm. dlately got acquainted with the owner and hla daughter. Ethel Fleming. He rode the "worst" horse on the place and did other remarkable feats and discovered who was rustling the cows. t was the foreman of the place and Just before the film ended Stewart was revested as a "detective." The Lucy Lucier trio gained Tnuch prominence yesterday afternoon with their songs. Lucy Lucier, Van Lucier and Ellsworth made up the trio and Lucy has a deep voice to carry her share of the singing. A character sketch, "The Custom Officer and a Wop." by Sonora and Webb, brought out some new lines and they made a decided hit. ' Wlllisch and Anita managed to re ceive a big hand in their comedy Jug gling act. Wlllisch tossed everything around on the stage from tin pans to playing cards and occasionally he re vealed the method of performing the stunt. Anita came before the foot lights In a series of clever poses. The Del Monte brothers were tum blers of ability. COLORADO SOLON RETIRES TO Alice Fleming; and Edward Everett Horton fall the honors of "The Trap," this week's attraction at the Alcazar theater. Honors in "The Trap." a cleverly written melodrama by Richard Harding Davis and Jules Eckert Goodman, do not fall easily. They eomo only as the result of tech nique and genuine understanding. With the spirit of the Yukon for the I first act and the millionaire atmos- I phere of the "great white way" for the tnree remaining acts, this week s at- TA traction offers a universal appeal. I r. Blackmail Is the motive of the theme which centers about, the threatened happiness of a woman and the desDer- ate loneliness of a man of fine caliber. The woman. Jane Carson, as she is known in the Yukon where she taught school, and later, Mrs. William Graham, wife of a prosperous New Yorker, is portrayed by Miss Fleming. The part of a man who stakes and wins millions but not happiness is played by Mr. Horton. - As Jane Carson Graham, Miss Flem ing enters into the gambling spirit of the Yukon. Her portrayal of that role shows her quick understanding of the pioneer life which caused people to play for big stakes, and losing to hold on and win. Her work does not savor of the cheap melodramatic. By her quiet, forceful personality she brings to the audience the maximum emotion In her scenes, yet in no way does she lessen her own dignity by over emphasis. In Ned Fallon, Impersonated by Mr. Horton, the American audience sees its Ideal. It sees a man big enough to acquire large winnings and yet main tain his own unpretentious personality. "Mr. Fallon has a way of seeing things through" to quote a line of the au thor particular credit Is due Mr. Horton for his work during the third act when with no overplay of mystery he keeps the audience in the dark, and cleverly devises the passing of a use less citizen In such a way that the lives, reputation and happiness of in nocent persons are saved and he him self is cleared. Henry Carson, a gambler to whom the possibilities of the Yukon and Wall street hold like thrill and attraction, is a delightful character under the por trayal of Smith Davics. His work Is consistent, and whether in serious or comedy lines Is pleasing. Mr. Davics, with Miss Marie Curtis, who plays the part of Jane Carson's younger sister, furnish the comedy of "The Trap" which is necessary to bring balance between the more emotional scenes. Vaughan Morgan, as usual, has the unpleasant part of playing the villian which he does with apparent gusto and conviction. In the role of the happy husband,' James Guy-Usher won much applause. His evident sincerity and interest add much to his presentation of William Graham, the husband of Jane Carson. SOCIETY t olm to Have Naval Shipyard. HAVANA. Plans for a new naval shipyard to be constructed on the grounds of the Tiscornia Immigration station back of Morro castle, across Havana harbor from the capital, have been submitted to President Menocal by Captain Sidney Henry.

("Billy") Adams of A.lamosa. who served the people of Co'lorado in the legislature for JS years, has announced his retire ment. Adams has given this advice to the young man contemplating entering politics: "Don't. Unless you can make your living outside politics." Adams came up from his cattle ranch In Conejos county when the state of Colorado waa Just two years old. being elected to the lower house. Each legis lature since then. Including the session which ended April 8. he has been a fa- I miliar figure in the legislative cham bers. first as. a member of the house and later in the senate. Adams was an expert on parliamen tary law and this knowledge helped him through many a hard-fought fight on the odor of the legislature. In his own opinion his greatest battle was the one which ended in the last elec tion of the late H. M. Teller to the United States sense. By quick thought and application of an obscur parlia mentary rule Senator Adams, then be longing to the minority wing, seized control of the senate when the presi dent left the chamber, taking wha he called "the rump senate" with him. Adams will not talk of himself or of his stewardship. "I made a rule early In my public life." he said, "to watch, to listen, to learn, to keep quiet. 1 have adhered to this rule and found it good." Senator Adams was a so-called "reac tionary." Ha led the opposition to the direct primary referendum and recall, declaring he "didn't believe in freak legislation." German Shopkeeper Fined. KREFELD.

C0REANS SECRETLY AIDED Friendly Societies In China Said to ' Have Membership of. 2,000,000. PEKIN. (Correspondence of the As sociated Press.) Several secret socie ties whose numbers aggregate millions of persons are supporting the indepen dence movement in Corea, it is under stood. Notable among them are the Progressive party and the Heaven Wor shippers, which togethere have a mem bership of more than 2.000,000 persons. Others are the New Corean society and the Light Restoring society. Sixty thousand students of nearly all educa tional institutions, including govern ment schools, participated in the move ment. It is stated that he insurrecion was suppored also by Christian and Buddhist bodies. The Buddhists in Corea number about 1,000.000.- They have 2000 temples and 100.000 priests. The Japanese have at tempted to use Buddhism to strengthen their position in Corea, sending many young priests to Japan to the educated. Nevertheless, many Buddhists are be lieved to have been closely connected with the insurrection. Christianity has made rapid progress in Corea for 30 years. Two large mis sionary bodies are working there. The American Methodist mission has 750 churches and 100,000 followers, while the American Presbyterian mission has 2000 churches and about 200,000 adher ents. The Corean Christians are most ly men of character and have received higher education. The demonstration In favor of Inde pendence, which began in nearly all towns and villages throughout Corea on' March 1, was at first ordrely and limited to the delivery of speeches and distribution of copies of manifestos. Later the movement took a distinctly revolutionary character and this re sulted in clashes with the Japanese au thorities and in casualties on both sides.
