IT'S REAL JOB TO DIG UP OLD FURNITURE Property Man of Berkell Players Did Good Job in Getting Hold of Ancient Parlor Sets This Week. THOSE Who dote on the antique household furniture will revel in a set of ancient parlor chairs that decorate the stage during the first act of “One of the Family,” the comedy of domestic life being presented by the Berkell Players at English’s this week. § The play script called for a set of horsehair upholstered chairs such as were quite the thing during the Civil war period, and just where Dave Gibson, the veteran property man who presides over the "prop" room at English's, dug them up no one but Dave knows and he won't tell. Gibson says that the chairs belong to an Indianapolis man whose hobby is the acquisition of rare antique pieces, and that their present

owner states that they once graced the home of Thomas E. Hendricks, former Governor of Indiana, and one time candidate for Vice-Presi-dent on the Democratic ticket. He consented to loan them for the use of the stock company this week onlv on consideration that Mr. Berkell put up a bond for their safe return. The job of nrocuring stage properties for a stock company is no sinecure, for a property man must know where he can lay hands on any and everything from an old time "high boy” to the very latest things in flying machines. Different stage properties are required for each play produced by Mr. Berkell .and as a rule the list will call for from twenty-five to fifty articles ranging from candle-sticks to pianos. "One of the Family,” the current production, is an exception for the property list called for eighty-seven articles, including two truck loads of furniture, antique and modern. Having been a property man for more than thirty years, Gibson knows all the ins and outs of his. trade. He Hfirted at it at the old Naylor Opera House in Terre Haute, and recalls that his first assignment was to assist in amassing “'props” for a Shakespearian production starring the famous tragedian Edmund Keene. , He has since collected “props” for the producetions of all the leading actors of the American stage. n n a The Junior League Follies opens a three-day engagement tonight at the Murat. Other theaters today offer: “One of the Family” at English's; “Dawn” at the Zaring; “His Captive Woman” at the Ohio; Charles Davis at the Indiana; “Speakeasy” at the Apollo: “Coquette” at the Palace; ‘‘Show Boat” at the Circle; “The Bohemians” at the Mutual, and the Colonial Players at the Colonial.

MEXICO REVOLT CHIEF FLEEING Uprising to Help Nation, Says Gil. Hu United Press MEXICO CITY, May 2.—Despite bloodshed and heavy financial cost of the dying Mexican revolution, President Emilio Portes Gil believes the revolt will be beneficial to the country by consolidating it more strongly, he told the United Press in an interview. Consenting to discuss the possible effects of the revolution as news from the battle front told of the gradual breaking up of the revolt, the president said he believed the failure of General J. Gonzalo Escobar had lessened the possibility of other civil wars in the future. Whereabouts of General Escobar, rebel commander-in-chfef, were not known today, but a dispatch from the El Paso consulate said it is understood he had left Agua Prieta with his staff, heading towards the mountains and apparently hoping to cross into the United States.
