FEDERALTROOPS RESTORE ORDER Brazilian Rebels Flee Into Interior, B i/ United Prets RIO DE JANEIRO. July 29. Federal troops are rapidly restoring order in Sao Paulo today. Governor Carjos De Campos has returned and reassumed his position as chief of the State government. Martial law continues. The main column of the rebel troops, -y'bich evacuated Sao Paulo Monday, appears to have escaped into the interior. It is assumed the rebels are disbanding and fleeing toward the wild country of Matto Grosso. There can be no doubt that the rebellion is practically over and that the victory of the government of President Bemardes is complete. The rebels, after more than three weeks of bitter fighting, found their position hopeless when support they had expected from other parts of the country failed to materialize. In Asia in ancient times there were a considerable number of monumental aqueducts, the largest of which were in China and India.

New Germ Is Found in New Toys;’ Some People Are in Love With Love

By WALTER D. HICKMAN ARRIAGEITIS. Ever hear of this new sort L__j of a domestic germ which nearly wrecks some newly-weds? According to George Clark, a neighbor, who lives next door to the Webbs, this germ gets busy in the second year of married life. George had been married seventeen years when he gave Will Webb information on marriageitis. The symptoms are complete restlessness and a desire to think of former suitors or “flames.” That is a very bad sign. Hubby generally thinks of certain moonlight nights with another woman. The wife generally feels that she needs self expression and takes up art, acting or something like that. Then marriageitis becomes a dangerous disease. Many times it breaks up the home. It gives every one the fever, even the neighbors next door and the mother-in-law. Marriageitis got hold of the Webbs in a most dangerous way. Even a baby was nearly forgotten for a time. But marriageitis can be cured with large doses of common sense. Even horse sense has to be administered at times. You will bump into marriageitis in “New Toys,” by Milton H. Grooper and Oscar Hammerstein. 2nd, at English’s this week. The Webbs have an awful case of marriageitis. The husband thinks of other moonlight nights and attempts to repeat 'em. The wife takes up acting when she learns that a former suitor is going to present anew play, called "Walter Raleigh.” She is to play the role of Queen Elizabeth. The first act of “New Toys,” placed on a Sunday afternoon in the Webb home is a clever and sincere bit of domestic life. Hubby goes on petting parties with an old flame. Their temperature is hot. The dinner scene on Sunday at the Webbs is nearly a domestic masterpiece. Relatives drop in to eat without an invitation. Even a neighbor hints so successfully that he is invited to dine although other guests are invited. Mrs. Webb’s mother “drops in’’ to take a look at domestic conditions. She is natural. She talks. “New Toys” has a corking good and big first act. I thought that here we have a really big and honest play of domestic life, but the playwrights became theatrical in the second anad third acts, but get right at the very end when Mrs. Webb’s | mother delivers a human talk on I married life. One human act will i not make a play a big human docu- ; ment. “New Toys” deserves a betI ter second act than it has. And yet I the sincerity and honesty of the first act will make many people happy and a little bit more thoughtful. And yet I do not want to go too ! critically into the workmanship of this play. The audience when I was present at English's accepted both the human and theatrical qualities iof the play. There are many laughs present and many of them are due to the expert business of the players. “New Toys" could have been a big play if it had not become theatrical in the second and third acts. But as it stands it will entertain and am usd. As Will Webb, Eddy Waller has a chance to show that he can play a human characterization. Waller 1 must consider his character just one of the many married men in the world today. In that he is right. He tries to steer away from some of the j theatricals used by the playwrights. The fact is that Waller's conception of the role helps the play as a play. Miss Jean Oliver is cast as the “long suffering wife.” When she falls under the spell of self-pity in ; the second and third acts she goes in for the theatricals (dramatic) of the play and that is just as the playwrights Intended. In the first act she is naturally gorgeous. Herbert Dobbins as the wise old married bird who lives next door, : gives us another honest and care- ; ful characterization. It is too bad ' that the playwrights didn’t underI stand this character better, but Dobj bins understands it. Mary Hill is i cast as Mrs. Warner ,the mother of j Mrs. Webb. Isabelle Arnold crashes | in with another triumph of acting as I Natalie Wood, a former “moonlight

Others in the cast are Robert Fay and Myrtle Stringer. “New Toys” will be on view at English’s all week. -I- -!- -IFINAL STOCK WEEK BEGINS AT THE MURAT A light, frothy comedy requiring no cerebration whatever is being presented at the Murat this week. It is called “In Love With Love.” It is one of those things in which one knows exactly what is going to happen from the middle of the first act until it dees happen at the end of the third. It is full of laughs. Most of the situations are ridiculous. In other words, it is good summer entertainment. It is guaranteed to make you forget the heat. The plot has to do with a girl who is a bit of a flirt. She leads a couple of fellows on. becomes nearly engaged to one, actually engaged to another ar.d finally decides to marry the third, somewhat to his surprise, but not at all to the surprise of the audience. That is all there is to it. Os course there are Incidental happenings, such as the fight between the two rejected suitors, in which they

Lincoln Theme Handled New Way

aT is no easy job to put the character of Abraham Lincoln on the stage. Drinkwater had much success along this line. Test Dalton, a playwright of this city, has studied Lincoln for many years. He has thought much on the problem of how life could be benefited if the principles of Linlines under the MAX J. YOUNG title of “The Mantle of Lincoln." which was presented last night at

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

knock each other out simultaneously. There is a lot of hiding behind trees and getting under foot on the part of the young men. In other words, it is just a farce, not unlike other farces, and entertaining if you don’t go to the theater to think. And, after all, who goes to the theater to think, especially in summer, except an incurable highbrow? Os course, the part of the quiet young engineer who turns out to be the hero is played by the masterful George. Gaul. And the fair young flirt is played by Marjorie Vonnegut, who not only flirts, but has an opportunity occasionally to display her ability to “emote.” Here’s the cast in full: Julia Genevieve Addleman William Jordan Durcan Penv.irden Ann Jordan Marjorie Vonnegut Robert Metcalf Harold Vermilye Frank Cakes Claude Kimball Jack Gardner George Gaul Marion Sears Jessamine bewcombe As we said before if you are hot and tired of thinking, you might run along to the Murat and watch these seven do their stuff. —(By Felix F. Bruner). -I- -I’ ‘l* ‘ PICKING MERIT WINNERS ON A VARIETY FESTIVAL The Lyric has made it a custom to present in July what is known as a Mid-Summer Festival Bill. This week such a bill is being presented at the Lyric. Names count on a fesetival bill just as they do any other time. This week you will meet Max Hoffman Jr., with the Andre Sherri Revue, Curl McCullough who lias been both in the legitimate and variety; Whitfield and Ireland who have had a rural classic for years and otheis. Sherri’s Revue has always been a smart article both as to method of presentation and as to talent. The revue opens with “A Night in June,” a pretty and catchy melodv brought to life by a young man and a number of girls. There is a woman in this organization who is a splendid dancer. She does a Sapnish affair wi'*i delightful dash. In truth, all of her work is worth while and of splendid artistry. Max Hoffman Is cashing In with his dancing feet and his personality way. The Spanish number is well handled. Revue is beautifully mounted and the costumes worn by the girls are very chick. Carl McCullough uses some material which ho has found successful in other vaudeville seasons. It is not so much the material that counts with this man, but the way he does it. He has a solid hit idea for closing—his conception of how Harry Lauder, Al Jolson, David Warfield and Eddie Leonard would do “Yes, We Have No Bananas." Clever and shows keen perception. It sems useless for me to make further comment upon Whltefleld. and Ireland in “Umpevllle.” To be this is a vaudeville classic. It Is a

the municipal theater at Garfield park. The central character is an old man who was driver of Lincoln's coach when he was President and who drove the hearse which carried Lincoln's body to the train in Washington for Springfield. Dalton begins his story with the old coach driver approaching his last days, years tfter Lincoln’s death. The old driver always held Lincoln up to his towns people as a nv>del of conduct. When the old man tells a story regarding Lincoln, Dalton uses the modern fishback as the means of introducing the great man. The play proper concerns the effect that the life of Lincoln has on i a young man who constantly heard the old coach driver tell of Lincoln. Anew play is like a new-born baby. There are going to be many changes and lessons learned before the child walks. Just the same with anew play. It takes time to get a play on its legs. I think that Dalton has a big idea in this play, but some of the scenes are too short to reach a climax of value. I admit thac there are laughs and some splendid serious moments, but the scenes are too short and do not move toward a climax of sufficient strength. I believe there is a worthwhile background present, but changes are needed before It Is ready for the legitimate theater. The flashbacks on Lincoln should correspond to the action of the play proper. A flashback should be an incident and dovetail into the story proper. Every time the old cab driver tells a story about Lincoln, the Lincoln story should Illustrate more fully than It does the theme actjpn of the play. I believe this can be done. And I must consider this fact— Dalton has drawn real characters. That is one of the tests of play writing. You will find every day people trying to wear the mantle of Lincoln. Here 1j a real theme, but changes must be made in working it out. There if enough dramatic and comedy “meat" present here for an interesting play. Os course Dalton will consider many points before he actually decides he has completed the job. I know he is that sincere and careful about his stage work. I noticed that “The Mantle of Lincoln,” which was presented before an audience which overflowed the large tent, did hold the attention of those present last night. Max J. Young played the Lincoln role. Others in the cast are William j M. Lauck, Phoebe Kay, Ben Harris, IJ. Caral Martin, Elsie McKane, ! Dorothy Fulkerson, Ben Harris, j Margaret Roberts and Edward I Bruck. “The Mantle of Lincoln” will be I presented every night this week j but Saturday and Sunday at Gar | field Park.—(Reviewed by Walter D. Hickman). Russ .Jewels Safe LONDON, England—The Russian crown jewels are safe in State keep- | ing. Rumors that the precious gems have disappeared are unfounded, according to Sir Martin Conway, noted art critic, who says he saw the jewels on a recent visit in Rvrl.".

sure laugh getter. One of the real comedy acts in vaudeville. This act will fit in any variety bill. The Four Yellerons are European globe performers. They do stunts on large wooden balls. Guess they are of wood. Arthur and Peggy open the festival with a wire act. That is the man does some mighty clever work on the wire. The woman does not get along as well with her character singing. It is the man who counts in this act. Otto and Hammer are present with some conversation concerning “The Duck Hunters.” Lonnie Nace is a singing comedienne along blues lines. At times she is too broad In remarks and melody to my way of thinking. Can see no merit in this act. Movies complete the show. The Lric is giving a bunch of worth while entertainment on this festival bill. -I- 'l' + DEMONS MAKE ONE SIT UP AND TAKE NOTICE Have seen the Eight Blue Demons several times and they never fail to make an audience sit up and take notice. When I was present at the Palace to see the new show I noticed that the audience did not only sit up, but applauded in real earnest when the acrobats began their whirlwind stunts. A fast acrobatic organization. One of the best on the road today. Generally I dread the sketch presented in the so-called three a day, but I found Billy Miller and his company in "The Sign Post” to be an exception to the rule. Here is a sparkling little comedy affair with some human touches. And it is w r ell acted. It concerns the efforts of a woman to get a divorce from her henpecked husband. Hubby was really too good to live until he discovered that the caveman stuff was the real article in his household. Princess Lani and her Hawaiian melody makers have been accorded top position in the billing. The fact remains that the Hawaii banjo players or whatever you call them are the whole act. The princess apears clad not In the famous shredded wheat garb but something very modern and stringy. The music makes this act. The Royal Sydneys have disguised a bicycle and juggling act in a careful manner. The man does some clever handling of hiUiard halls. Andy and Louise Barlow offer an east side sketch and close it with some fast stepping. The movie feature is Bryant Washbum in “Try and Get It.” At the Palace today and Wednesday. • • Other atractions on view today include: “Broadway After Dark,” at the Apollo; "Daughters of Pleasure,” at the Circle; “Under the Red Robe," at the Ohio; “Let's Go," at the Isis, and "The White Moth," at Mister Smith's.

NEW PROBE ON IN OUEEj DEATH More Evidence Found in Noblesville Case. NOBLESVILLE, Ind., July 29. New evidence, secured by detectives employed by children of James J. Kincade, prominent farmer, found dead in his barn last February, re suited today in the convening of the grand jury in special session to investigate queer circumstances surrounding the death. Detectives, it is said, found Kincade's watch in possession of an Indianapolis colored man who, in turn, declared that it h\d been given to him by one of Kiucade's relatives. The grand jury last April spent two weeks Investigating the case, but did not return an indictment, despite Coroner Coaltrin's verdict, that Kiucade’s death was due to vio lence. MOTION PICTURES
