AMUSEMENT GARRICK—Tom Wise, in “Cappy Ricks.” The curiously contradictory and Plcturesque character of “Cappy Ricks” went rollicking through three scenes of delicious humor, with Tom Wise, the guest star, as Cappy, as- sisted by the Garrick Players, at the Shubert-Garrick Theater, last night, where the play will hold forth- for the week. As an antidote for “hot weather blues” if there be such an ailment, “Cappy Ricks” is a_prize winner, for it makes gales of laughter sweep like a b and Tom W ¢, himself. as “Cappy,” and blustering aptivates. He has pep. Rather, he to throw extra ted vrilliancy into ction of the play. t. from Gallagher, ad by Henry Gold- tt Peasley. by Fe A with Ada Me. ms to step itself, to and il lost office bo: . to Capt.

But, that, of course, was in the story. !

The city and the state should do their part, but the federal government should also_do its still greater part, and I write to remind our readers that the pending bill for the exelusion of gambling tips from the mails is stalled in the_ Senate, after passing the House. You will remember that Mr. Walsh of New Bedford, Mass., in introdueing the bill, said_he was prompted to do so by seelng So many young men on the streets of Washington loafing around gambling centers, seeking to make a living without earning it. The public should know that the bill was taken up In the Senate com- mittee on the judiciary and that it was apparently about to be reported with or without recommendation, to the calendar, when the Post Office Department was requested to glve some information about the four un- contested provisions that would ex- clude more perfectly lottery devices from the mails. Then the opposition of Mr. Hays, though he had ceased to be Postmaster General, seemed to rise for the blocking of the bill, as the new chief does not seem to be disposed to take a different stand | from his predecessor, who opposed the bHL in its relation to the gambling tips in the malils on the plea that it would interfere with the freedom of the press, although nothing is for- bidden except inducements to gamble, the news of a race being allowed, ex- cept in such form &s would encourage gambling rather than real sport. What is really needed in thig case, as in almost every other of Iégial tion, is a vigorous expression of public | opinion. It would seem as if Wash- ington at this time, with the ex- posures that have heen-made in your ages, would be willing to say to the ostmaster General, on the one hand, and to the committee on the judiciary on the other, especially to Senator | Sterling, who is favoring the bill and seeking to secure its passage, that they greatly desire this bill in_the interest of honest business as well as &ood morals. Such an expression from Washingtoniane would very likely overcome the obstacles that are now hindering the bill, The gambling issue certainly calis for an active expression of sentimént to Congress by every good citizen, men and women alike.
