Abolition of the shipping boatd and other federal agencies; cur terstate commerce commission and Investigation of the navy de partment and the Shenandoah dis aster were' Just a few of the pro posals advariced in 1,045 bills and resolutions' introduced today in the senate. .ii ii ' 1 f 1 Five excellent vaudeville acts are offered today by the Heilig theater. The acts are billed over the 'Association circuit-' . Local persons, -who appreciate male Quartets will find much' to enjoy in the offering of IThe J'our of Us." This is' becau8e",these de lineators ot popular melodies sing with a spice of novelty ; and ln cludemany humorous tricks and bits of business in their act. They possess pleasing voices and are said to be harmonists in every ense of the word. Donohue and La Salle have , a novel offering billed as "Unique Novelty." The man is exception ally versatile, the big. big feature being an 11-foot jump from a pi ano lamp into a sugar barrel and winding up with a forward somer sault from the barrel. The young lady is a contortionist of merit. When we' see a comedian, sans everything in make-up and costu ming, relying entirely on his wit humor and ability to thoroughly amuse an audience, we naturally must accord him credit for his tal ents as an entertainer and .com mend him to the theater-going public . at large, George Latour, billed as the "Manipulating" Ra conteur," perfectly fills the bill as a representative comedian who de pends solely on his ability to cre ate laughter by his wit and - hu mor. George appears in a neat white tennis suit and keeps up a running fire of English, Scotch and Irish stories, intermingled with . topical chatter, while juggl ing tennis rackets,, balls," plates, billiard cues, clubs and cigar boxes. verna Haworth and company will offer a tespsichorean presen tation that is handsomely mount ed, and running over with excep tional talent. Not only does this apply to Miss Haworth but the other members of her little com pany as well. -Eadie and Ramsden appearing In an act entitled "Something and Nothing," actually do a number of entertaining stunts, but perform so easily that it seems like noth ing. The cortortionist twists his body into . incredulous positions and as quickly slips back into nor mal shape. Gold fillings from her teeth was the contribution made to the Sal vation Army yesterday by an el derly woman resident of Salem. Incidentally, she was the first per son In Salem to drop her share in the Salvation Army Christmas cheer pots, which were posted at various parts of the city. yesterday morning. She placed the gold fillings in a small glass vial, and carefully dropped it in one of the pots, de claring she wished , to, help with the giving of Christmas cheer. She said she had no money to give, but with the desire to help this year, she decided to give the fillings. The pots in general fared well during the course of the day. RELICS OP JAPAN FOUND TOKYO. Scientists of Keio uni versity are reported to have made important discoveries in a shell mound which they recently exca vated in the forest of Koyasu, near Yokohama. Human bones, earthenware, flint arrowheads and car decorations made of shells lead anthropologists to "believe they have found evidences of a primitive tribe which inhabited the land of Mikado thousands of years ago.
