Three Good Steppers Appear in Palace Sketch

Three good dancers appear in a dancing playlet, "The Frencn Model,” at the Palace. Am speaking of Miss Grette' Ardine, Ryrell and Mack. Was spe cially impressed with a solo dance, acrobatic in nature, by one of the men. The Apache dance is not new on the stage. In fact, it has been terriblyl overdone in the past, but this seam makes this dance the theme dance of their offering. Their closing number. "Jazz It l*p," gives them a pleasing finish. Woodard and Morrissey present Hank, a "mule.” A man makes up as a trained mule. Act good for laughs. The children will like this team. Browning and Weir, blackface, make the mistake of taking things too easy. The same material thi> now have would take on added effett if the slow movement was taken out Eldridge, Barlow and Eldridge in "Palace De Luxe, ’ goes in for slapstick rural comedy. Their movie idea is a good one. Gets the laughs That’s the idea of this act. Helle 1 and Renn are short on real comedy, but they make up for it when they get down to dancing and violin playing. The movie feature is "Roulette.” At the Palace today and Saturday. (Reviewed by W. D. Hickman.) - -I- -IHERNDOX GIVES CLAIBORNE FOSTER HER BIG CHANCE Claiborne Foster, who is featured with Allan Dinehart in "Apple Sauce,” a three-act comedy by Barry Conners, which opens a week's engagement at the Murat Monday night, with matinees Wednesday and Saturday, is an example of what de- ( termination will do in carving out a career to a successful end. Miss Foster was born in Louisiana, and even when she was a small ctfild found her greatest amusement in mimicking those around her. Even before she had ever been in a theater she determined that she would be an actress, and. despite parental objection, when she left school hied herself to New York. Ostensibly to visit a school girl friend, she seized upon the opportunity while in Manhattan to interview managers. The first day of her round of the offices she was engaged to appear in a musical play. “Miss Daisy,” and stayed with this long enough to learn the first rudiments of stagecraft, which consisted, as she laughingly expresses it, "which is up stage and which is down.” Her next engagement was in “A Full House” and he. success as an actress was established. New York engagements followed one after the other and her rise to prominence and position was rapid and secure. In Richard Herndon's production of “Cheaper to Marry,” made at the Belmont last season. Miss Foster in the leading female role, convinced the producer that here was a girl endowed with beauty and talent, a

BEGIN HERE TODAY Robert Koran, newspaper correspondent. accompanies the Theodore Roosevelt expedition into Africa in 1909. They arrive at Mombasea. the •'irateway of British East Africa, and then make the railroad journey to the first camp on the game-crowded Kapiti Plains, ”88 miles from the coast With Colonel Roosevelt are his son. Hermit, and three scientific members of his tsaff—Major Edgar A. Mi arns, Edmund Heller and J. Allen Luring. Incredible good luck comes to the rifles of Colonel Roosevelt and Hermit during the first two weeks of their sojourn. They spend some time at Nairobi and Kijabe and then start oil their first prolonged safari across the ‘ third belt'' in Sotik. The procession of porters. gunbeariTs. personal servants and grooms is fully a quarter of a mile long NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY mHE first five days’ shooting in the Sotik had brought fourteen or more animals to Theo dore Roosevelt’s own gun, to say nothing of those that fell to Kermit’s or those of the three naturalists. Colonel Roosevelt had shot only animals that were wanted for the museum or for food, although a great many more could have been killed if it had been so desired. But nothing was ever wantonly shot or butchered during the whole course of that expedition in Africa. Included In the colonel's bag were a lioness, a hyena, wart-hog, two elands, two topi, two zebras and a nine-foot python. Kermit had killed two cheetahs and a lion, amongst other animals. It was during these six weeks that Colonel Roosevelt had some of his most interesting adventures, and as the days progressed the collection of specimens assumed gigantic proportions. Before they finally left the Sotik country for Saiga-Sai form on Lake Naivasha they had added to the first five days' list no less than three giraffes, six or more topi, six rhinos, three cheetahs and four lions and lionesses. In forwarding some more home mail out to Theodore Roosevelt, I had told him that I was leaving, according to prearranged plans, for Entebbe in Uganda; also that Williams, who had been a fellow-guest at McMillan’s Juja farm, had been badly mauled by a lion which he had mortally wounded and had then charged him, and that a man named

Baker, whom lie had also met, had been killed by an elephant; and, finally, that I was going out on a lion hunt at Like Naivasha before proceeding to Uganda. My Masai runner brought me hack the following letter from Colonel Roosevelt, written from one of the camps in the Sotik .country: July 1, 1909. ‘‘Dear Foran: “I suppose you will he gone when this reaches Naivasha, but send it on the off chance. I hope you got. your lion, and that you will thoroughly enjoy your Nyatiza trip. 1 am very sorry to hear about Williams; and have held him up as an awful—and much needed —example to Kermt. 1 am even more sorry to hear about poor Mrs. Baker’s husband. “Always yours. Theodore Roosevelt.” Many amusing letters were being received by Colonel Roosevelt from unknown correspondents from all over America, and even from Europe. One man xvrote to Colonel Roosevelt {o protest against his shooting such harmles and beautiful creatures as rhinoceros. When Colonel Roosevelt read this letter, he remarked to me: “I should just like the writer to be turned loose in a high-walled enclosure with one of these ‘harmless and beautiful’ creatures! I think he would quickly change his mind about both qualities.” Colonel Roosevelt and his party came into camp at Saigai-Sai farm, on the southern shores of Lake Nai vasha, on July 12, for a hippopotamus hunt. CHAPTER IX Hippopotamus Hunting at Saiga-Sai The expedition had arrived at Sai-gai-Sai, a fine farm that belonged to Commander Frederick Attenborough, R. N., and his brother,' on July 12, after a most wonderfully successful shooting trip in the Sotik country and on the Loietta Plains. It had been a very hard trek during the last two days of the journey down to Lake Naivasha, owing to the absence of water at the flrat camping place. In consequence of this shortage of an ab-

solute necessity, the march had continued during the night with barely a stop, except for brief rests on route, until Saigia-Sai farm had been reached. The huge tent town of the expedition was pitched in a truly ideal spot. They h l selected an open stretch of grass land, which was surrounded on all sides by acaciathorn trees and thorny shrub. One hundred and fifty yards away was the lake, bordered by thick papyrus reeds and dense bushes of long thorns. The scrub and papyrus reeds were cut up in all directions by hippopotamus tracks. Tlie chattering of apes in the. trees and the shrill but tuneful twitter of bird talk, combined with the gentle lap of the waters of the lake, alone disturbed the serenity of that peaceful scene. Heller was engaged upon the great task of preparing the head and hide of a giant hippopotamus, which Hermit had killed on July 13. Tarlton was soon working strenuously over the issuance of stores to the porters and superintending the erection of a grass-thatched hut for the accommodation of Dawson and myself. They all looked very hronzed and well, and they' were full of stories of the wonderful experiences that had befallen them in the Sotik country. We lunched together In the welcome shade of a roomy grassthatched shed that had been erected as a mess house. The tents of the European personnel of the expedition had been placed in a long line facing the gorgeous beauty of Lake Naivasha, while over Colonel Roosevelt’s tent lazily floated the inevitable American flag. After lunch Tarlton and I went off to shoot owls for Mearns, and we managed to secure some rars and fine specimens, which greatly delighted the doctor. After tea I accompanied’ Loring when he went out to set his traps for small mammals. Just as the sun was dipping to meet the western horizon over, the placid waters of the lake. Colonel Roosevelt, Kermit and Cunnirighame returned to camp after an unsuccessful day’s hunt after hippo. "Hullo, old Africa,” he shouted to me, as I approached the landing stage to welcome him. “We had no luck today. Wo saw two hippo in deep water, and hit them both; but we must have missed the brain, for we lost them.” “Father hit his in the head, at a distance of a hundred yards,” Kermit interposed ruefully. “But he did not get much chance of a good shot, and must have hit him too low metween the eyes.” “But we’re going out again after them tomorrow morning at daybreak,” Colonel Roosevelt declared,

and ills teeth snapped close over the words, “Come along with us and see the fun, Old Africa!” We were up betimes and, after a hurried breakfast. Colonel Roosevelt, Kermit, Dawson and myself started off from camp to poin the two Attenboroughs at the landing stage below their house. We found Cunninghame and Roosevelt's txvo hosts already in the launch, with a full head of steam up. A few minutes later we had embarked, cast loose from the pier, and were steaming across the lake toward tiie mouth of the Morendat River —a spot some nine miles distant from the camp. Just as we came in sight of the mouth of the river, the sharp-eyed Commander Attenborough spied a large hippo walking along the edge of the papyrus reeds at the distant end of a little bay. We headed the launch straight for it, and slowed down as we reached the water lilies and weeds that protected the edge of the payrus. Colonel Roosevelt, Kermit and Cunninghame rapidly transferred themselves to the small rowing boat, which we had been towing and in which sat three porters who could use tlie oars, and started to row in the direction of the hippo. By this time it had disappeared in the reeds. (Continued in Our Next Issue) J. T. IVTNARY HONORED Indianapolis Banker Elected by Mortgage Association, Joseph T.

CHARGES ARE DISMISSED Wihneth flrops Gaming Case Against Men Aires ted Sept. 8. Charges of keeping a gaming house and gaming against Nathan and Lasky Farb, brothers, 1236 E. Ohio St., and charges of visiting a gaming house against twenty-seven men were dismissed by City Judge Delbert O. Wilmeth today when the State sought a continuance on the grounds its case was not complete. Arrests were made on Sept. S by Lieutenant Cox and squad at a poolroom at 37 S. Capitol Ave., which the Farb brothers deny operating. Raid was made after a personal survey by Police Chief Herman K. Rikhoff. District police were severelyi reprimanded as a result for alleged! laxity on their heats. Dismissal was ordered, it is said, because it is understood the Marion County grand jury is investigating. FRENCH WOMAN TELLS Without Diets , Absurd Creams, Exercises ©r Reducing Girdles. 1 reduced my own weight 50 pound* in less than 5 weeks, and at the same time marvelously improved my general health and appearance with a, new French discovery called SAN-GRI-NA. To-day I look, act and leel tar younger than my real age. From the results in my own case and those ot my triends, I am absolutely convinced that any man or woman burdened with rolls ot ugly, injurious, unwholesome iat, can take it of! easily, quickly and safely with SAN-GRI-NA. Everyday science discovers something new. SAN-GRI-NA is one of the latest French discoveries tor the reduction of excess fat. It does away with weakwung diets —tiresome exercises—torturing garments and absurd and expensive so-called reducing creams. It is used extensively in Pari*, where women ot every age pride themselves on keeping their figures slender and graceful, and where the men detest a heavy waistline or double chin. No matter how tat you are, or what you have done in the past to reduce, you must remember that SAN-GRI-NA has never been offered before to the American public—• IT IS GUARANTEED ABSOLUTELY HARMLESS—does not contain any dangerous drugs, and cannot possibly affect your stomach or your health. By simply j taking two small tablets before each meal I I lost 50 pounds in two months, and I haven’t regained a pound since. I eat all I want and enjoy the best of health. You can do the same. To-day go to any good drug store, ask for a package of SAN-GRI-NA. Do not accept anything else, a it is the only thing I ever found to reduce after 1 had tried hundreds of diU 1 ferent w;\ys and remedies. On sale at any of Haag's, Hook's or Goldsmith Bros.
