00,000 Building Tradesmen Are Idle All Over the Empire Now. CLASHES ARE EXPECTED EFFORTS WILL BE MADE TO PARADE TODAY AND IF SUCH ACTION OCCURS BLOODY FIGHTS ARE EXPECTED. (American, News' Service) Berlin, April 16. Troops were distributed in every city In Germany affected by the general lockout in the building trades which went into effect at midnight , Reports received here today indicate that ; 400,000 men throughout the country have been thrown into idleness. The social democrats have started a campaign of . agitation, making the most for their propaganda of the situation, which was brought about by the refusal by the socialist federation of trades unions to accept the wage scale offered by the master builders union. An attempt will be made to parade torow wow. Bloody clashes will undoubtedly follow. Fully ten per cent of the latter organizations' members regards the men's demands as fair and have refused to Join in the lockout, but more than 20,000 firms are In the movement. The entire organization of the working classes has been drawn on for suu- . port by the locked out men. Tho building trades unions already have in ash more than $3,000,000 and will not begin to pay benefits for two weeks. A great sum is due in supporting contributions dally. While negotiations for peace are under way at Munich, it was declared today that the employers of Berlin, Hamburg and Bremen, nat at first included, w ould be called on to join in the lockout. . At Local Theaters

The Third Degree. In presenting Charles Klein's latest ucceBS, "The Third Degree," Henry 13. Harris bespeaks for it the same Absorbing Interest that attached to Mr. Klein's other dramatic triumph, "The Lion and the House." This time Instead of attacking financial ' and political conditions, Mr, Klein has seen fit to go to Fifth Avenue for his characters, bringing to light a conn diUon .that exists in that society, and revealing it In a vivid manner. Seldom In the history of the drama has there been recorded a play that embodies the tense and absorbing inter- ' est contained in "The Third Degree." Its presentation at the Gennett on Tuesday, April 26th, will be the same as that which obtained during its long and successful run. at the Hudson theater in New York. ; Richmond 8tock Co. ' ' Richmond has had many traveling repertoire companies but never in the history of Its theater has It been abl to boast of owning a permanent stock company. Such is the Richmond - Stock company which Harry G. Sommers has gathered together from different parts of the country to Inaugurate the spring season with an indefinite run. The list of names is a lone one. Most nrominent beine that

of Jane Babcock, the leading lady who! comes direct from the Bush Temple where she was a great favorite. Play- " ing opposite to Miss Babcock will be Mr. Carl Brlckert, for several seasons the leading man with Belasco's "Girl of the Golden West" The Btage will be most ably directed by Mr. John A. Preston, who has a wide reputation for his work 'in that line. v Russian Gypsy Troupe. Patrons of the Murray will be pleased to learn that the Russian . Gypsy Troupe will be in Richmond this week. This troupe has won aulte a reputation as excellent singers, wearing most attractive costumes and giving some bewildering dances. A comedy act by he Three Dreamers and the Tflel Sisters, singers, dancers and contortionists are sure to please all. A , comedy playlet "Married for Money" presented by Forry Brott and Co., is also a sketch that has been very popular wherever given this season and being truly a comedy sketch It should prove very entertaining . here. With the motion pictures another big bill Is assured all patrons of approved vaudeville at the Murray this week. Monte Carlo Girls. , Positively tomorrow night only will be burlesque night, and the real show will be here. For many seasons burlesquers have been coming to oar city, but one -of the most popular and the favorite among the "boys" is the

Monte Carlo Girls, with their pretty girls and funny men. This season an entirely new show has been written for these merry makers. The opening burletta is entitled "The Merry Madcaps," in which the entire company appear, and as the name Implies, It Is one mad riot of fan. The closing burlesque is entitled "Too Many Husbands." This Is said to be the funniest and most up-to-date piece that they have had In years. Added to the above is a number of the highest class vaudeville specialties, among whom are many old time favorites, especially "Lew Golden," our old Hebrew friend, one of the very best and highest salaried comedians in the country, and the boys always know what to expect with him in the cast; also our old friend Mllo De Rau with a new sensation. The Goddess of Liberty.; "The Goddess of Liberty" is one of the latest musical plays from the prolific pens of Will M. Hough and Frank R. Adams, with music by Joseph E. Howard and has registered an impression upon -the Chicago newspaper critics and playgoing public unparallelled in the history of Chicago theatrical productions. Heretofore the plays of these authors have been full of slang and dealt with incidents in the lives of the middle class working people, but in "The Goddess of Liberty" they have chosen the aristocratic English nobleman -and the American heiress, and various other representatives of a smarter class of society for their principal characters. - The original cast, chorus and production, eame as produced at the Princess theater for three hundred consecutive performances with Sallle Fisher and George - Parsons, supported by P. O'Malley, Jennings, Johnny Fogarty, Francis Yourige, OIHe Artell, George Day, Augustus Carney, Mabel Fredericks, Dan Hall and Fred Hagan. The broilers who have been such a feature in the former successes by these authors, are still conspicuous. This is possibly Miss Fisher's farewell engagement in musical comedy. This is the first time that she has toured the country in six years. It is said that at the close of this season Miss Fisher is to go abroad and that at the end of a year will return and enter grand opera. The attraction comes to the Gennett on Monday, April 25. "

T. P. A Notes BY T. C. H. State convention is only three weeks off. Get ready. Buy yourself a new tie and go along with the crowd. Harvey Gard, poet and snake charmer, dropped in on the boys last Sunday. He is home on a week's visit with his family and will again leave for the south Monday. , Harvey is greatly enthused over the conditions of the South and :' speaks in ' glowing terms of the great progress in the southern states. The Ft. Wayne convention is. to be a live affair. , Those Germans promise us more fun than we can handle. The "Little German Band." consisting of Hegger, "Uncle Billy" Kramer, Hoernor and O'Brien is faithfully devoting much time every night rehearsing their old time "Dutch" jokes, songs and what nots, preparing to spring something new on the lads at Ft. Wayne. They say the convention will be entirely controlled by the Ger mans..' v State President Lebo was - in Peru yesterday when an all day rally was held for the purpose of gathering in a few new members. The state officers are making one grand final effort to push the membership to the top before the close of the year, April 30. From now on until "state convention tlm.e President Lebo will be away every Saturday, as rallies have been arranged for these days. At the - present time Indiana is fifty-three behind Missouri and a strong effort will be made to have Indiana go to the Chattanooga convention, the largest state division in the national organization. Hegger has bought a new outfit for the convention. His clothes will surely make a hit Harry Thomas and bride are visitIng relatives and friends In the city. Harry, from all appearances, seems to be prospering, and married life has added much to his general uplift He is as happy as a bird and life with him seems to be one sweet dream. The boys of the post were greatly pleased to' see Harry again and regret their Inability to meet the bride. Harry is as popular with the boys as ever. . Have you read your T. P. A: magaline? No?

' It is reported on good authority that our old time friend and former citizen, Charles O. Tooker tas taken unto himself a wife. It is said "Took" was married last December to Mrs. Crouse, of Winchester, and the affair has been kept a secret until now. "While the boys of Post O were pleasantly anticipating such an event they will be surprised to know the marriage has already taken place. Charlie will have his bride at Ft Wayne and from there will go to Kokomo, where they will make their future home. The members of Post C, extend most hearty congratulations to the bride and groom.

The Scope Of

An Address Delivered at the N ational Suffrage Convention at Washington by Mrs. LaReine Helen Baker.

(American News Service) Washington, April 16. At the meeting of the National American Woman Suffrage association yesterday, Mrs. LaReine Helen Baker delivered the following address: - Laws which prevent women from occupying such a station in society as her conscience shall dictate, or which place her In a position inferior to that of men, are contrary to the great precept of nature, and therefore are of no force of authority. Woman is man's equal; was Intended to be so by the Creator, and the highest good of the race demands that she should be recognized as such. Women ought to be enlightened in regard to the laws under which they live, that they may no longer publish their degradation by declaring themselves satisfied with their present position, nor their ignorance by asserting that they have all the rights they want. The same amount of virtue, delicacy and refinement of behavior that is required of women In a social state should also be required of men, and the same punishment for transgressions should be visited with equal severity on both man and woman. ' Equal suffrage, the universal right of the franchise conveys a scope almost unlimited. To gain -equal suffrage means more than to gain a right for women to vote. It means the freeing of the sex which for years has been held in bondage, conventionally and otherwise. Further than this, equal suffrage will work a blessing upon the children of the future generations. Why? Because free children can be born of free parents only. Other nations look to America today and point as if to a "free" land, where life is a sweet fantasy of dreams. But, what woeful lack of freedom there is here. The mothers of the country today, shorn of their rights to live and help their children after their own minds, are little more than slaves. The nation depends upon its children, its spirit of freedom and life, and yet year after year the sentiment of freedom is growing less and less, and why? Because, throughout the vast land of almost 100,000,000 people, the mothers are awakening to a realization that their life is not one of. freedom, not one of individuality. Instead they are soberly realizing that they are victims of a great sense of masculine rights. Give the mother an opportunity to take a hand in the law; put her energy into enforcing child labor rulings, establishing a single standard of morals for both men and women; allow her to have a voice in making and breaking home ties, instituting - marriage and divorce laws, and enforcing them; allow her to take a part in caring for the state's orphan children, the nation's offcasts, and above all. allow her the ownership of her ' body and

mind, and watch tho rapid development of the race, the unequaled strides of the nation. There are states already which are realizing the rights of women to ad vantage. In Idaho, Utah, Colorado and Wyoming the women are voting, and, to a great extent, are ridding communities of greed, vice and corrup tion. And why will it not be done in every state in the Union when once the rights of franchise are extended? In these states the benefits have been manifold already and while there are more men than women, the woman have cast fully half the total vote on several occasions. Woman's responsibility to make her self an Intelligent entity, a worthy character and a helpful factor in the community, proves her right to equal opportunity and powers as an Individ ual sovereign with men.. The agitation of the suffrage ques tion is an educational force of untold value, though the "ballot for women' alone will not free her from the chains of ignorance and superstition. It is hoped however, that when all political dissensions founded on sex shall have been wiped out women will be sufficiently intelligent to demand equal freedom with her brother man by demanding the . ownership and control of her person. My Bisters, I appeal to you. Let us work together for the human welfare of the coming race. There are children in mothers arms today and thousands and thousands yet unborn who will bless your memory. It needs our combined and united support We know today among women the most highly cultured women wives are denied the rights of citizenship, denied the participation in the making of the laws to which they are held FRITZ KRULL Teacber of tie Art !
