BOOTLEG EFFORT
ENOS IN FAILURE
h IjONDOX, April 21. The Daily
Mall asserts that Sir Broderlck Hart-
f well left England a month ago to
t i superintend delivery to an American
it syndicate ot hln seventh and largest
t J shipment of spirits but that the con-
ffj sigmment has met with a series of
j misadventures and most of it is now
In the hands of the American prohi-
J bltlon authorities. The paper prints
4 a telegram alleged to have been re-
I ceived from the baronet by his Lon-
don office as follows:
'V tiou uibiiuoco aiiiJiiuiiig oiiuuuuii.
fOver 30,000 yards (?) seized. Bal
ance transferred to three schooners.
At present safe, but cannot reach
or communicate.
"Few thousand unloaded, but re
sulting funds paid out for charter
ing vessels. .No funds available un
less schooners land goods at present
impossible owing to intensive cam
paign. Returning soon as possible.
Communicate to inquirers with deep
est regrets." . j
The Daily Mail remarks that the
800 persons who supplied the funds
to purchase the whiskey are hardly
likely to get much return. Sir Brod
erlck is expected to arrive in Lon
don today or tomorrow.
It is recalled that the- baronet's
circulars inviting the public to par
ticipate in his ventures promised a
profit at the rate of 120 per cent.
The reported failure of his expedi
tion causes another paper, the Star,
to remark that "precious little sym
pathy need be wasted' on him and
his supporters, adding:
"We believe most of tho English
neoule will reirard it as ciuite a sutis-
factory situation.

A well rounded vaudeville and pic
ture hill closes tonight at the Hunt's
Craterian.
Alfred Times in "The Limit on
Wheels," is a Jumping act in which
Times makes his wooden cycle mount
stairs, hurdles over obstacles, and do
other daring feats of skill.
Miss Margaret Mantall, one of the
clever girls in the Victoria Trio puts
over wonderful imitations. Fay Strom
and Marie Broulette assist in one of
the most novel girl's acts appearing in
vaudeville.
Sanley Shaddick portrays the role
of "Fu Tong," a Chinese magician who
has been dead four hundred years, and
whose illusions were handed down
from father to son, until September,
1917, when Fu Tong the Sixth, while
playing an enKagementin England,
fc fell ' into the Thames river and was
rescued by Mr. Shaddick. Fu Tong
gave the secrets of hls'illusions to Mr.
Shaddick, who has Americanized the
net to the extent of adding singing and
dancing to its very wide scope of en
tertainment. Harry Berry has a whole bag full
of comedy stunts, and a lot of college
humor and songs to go with it. Miss
Keith, the feminine part of the duo Is
Introduced as a surprise, but we will
not spoil the pleasure of future au
diences by divulging a stage secret.

his exhibition of versatility. "His Lit
tle Barrel of Fun" Is a splendid act.
