Unusual interest is being manifested in the skit, “A Billionaire,’ in which the Bohemian Clib men will appear. The talent and versatility of the brilliant club- men are a well established fact, but the it. The Bohemian heretofore has sung and played and danced and quipped his jokes to the delight and for the delight of his fellow clubmen only. The doll show will be the first time that Bohemian talent may be seen and enjoved outside the sa- cred precincts of Bohemian Clubdom. “A Billionaire” was written by Peter Robertson, a Bohemian Club man. There are eight characters in the sketch, and the text is said to be bubbling over with witty lines and clever situations. Orrin Peck will play the part of a girl, and only 17 and full of wisdom. Dr. J. Wilson Shiels is the billionaire, who in the development of the play is discovered to be a faker—a “billoinaire” in his mind J. C.

When the people have a public serv- ant who has proven himself to be honest | and capable, he should not be cast aside to please political bosses or political par- ties. Mr. Byington has been tried both as a Supervisor and as District Attorney. He has not been found wanting in any re- spect and if the public appreciate fait] ful public service they will re-elect him, * —————————— In the Divorce Courts.
