The first one. “perfectly harm- Jess,” had the professor and his young assistant in a hole, the tender and amorous passion had them all running around on the high speed, and the au- dience sat by and held its sides and had all the tonic effects thatgome with the third. The figures of are of course, but so were the in- fants,'although we had it doped out from the moment the curtain rose on that bit of fluffiness that lay reading a book on the professor's couch that that child was “Some Baby!* She was indeed.

She and her maiden aunt were an interesting contrast. Miss Alvina was 41 and spinsterly. The general, at 65, made love to Syl- via and got shunted off, though he didn't know it, on Alvina.” Sylvia and Philip Stanton, her father's assistant, had an understanding and they were ‘going to get married in a year.

Then they hid all the stuft save one little bottieiWhen they came in again, another baby on the couch, and Sylvia was gone. A neighbor had left that one there. There was a mer- ry_time chasing bables around, and love affairs waxed hot and waxed cold until, of course,all the tangled threads were straightened, and youth was paired with youth, and the general with the spinster, and the mothers got their es, "and the professor $10,000 for his elixir turned hair Te- storer. All in all, it was a cleverly con- ceived_farce and charmingly carried out. Sentiment centered around Syl- via, humor around the professor, a. little of each around Alvina and the general Frank Lalor did splendid work. Miss Larrimore added ability to beauty and Jessie Ralph's difficult characterization was exceedingly well done. Ernest Hallard, in the military part received a lot of honestly earn- ed applause, and John Arthur capably supported Mr. Lalor. Beth Franklin played the part of a gossipy fiy-away neighbor in a fashion and the Barts of the other memiers wers wail one. If Some Baby is not in any way striking, it is interesting and amus- ing and excellently done by a well- selected company. After the play was over, most of the me of the company that played Some Baby embarked in an automoblle truck and went to New on, where they played Wednes- day night. The rest went in an au- tomobile. They are going on to the Fulton theatre, New York, to open next weelk. FUNERAL Mrs. John W. Street The funeral of Addie Purple, wife of John W.

GOVERNMENT INQUIRY ABOUT WAR MUNITIONS War Department Has Asked Manu- facturers Data. Washington, August-12.—Announce- ment that the War Department had asked American manufacturers of war munitions for data as to their facili- ties for furnishing supplies, particu- larly in the event of an emergency, led to some speculation here today, al- though officials explained that the ac- tion was in accordance with the usual practice both in normal times as well as in time of wer. The announcement said emphatically that no purchases of war supplies were contemplated at present. The step it is explained was made necessary because of the fact that prectically every private plant in the ountry is taxed to its capacity filling orders for the warring nations of Eu- rope. General inquiry has been in- stituted to ascertain whether expan- sion of facilities has kept pace with the demand, and whethe the govern- ment would be certain of & source of supply to supplement the of its arsemals and armories, which or- dinarily produce only a part of the supplies needed. It is expected that Comgress at its forthcoming session will enact legis- tion to strengthen the national de- fences, necessitating increased de- mands for supplies aside from any emergency that Cusy arise.
