S INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 2—~When asked to-night @s to the rumor that he was recelving threatening letters warning him to cease his attacks on organized labor, President D. M. Parry of the National Manufacturers’ Assoclation sald: “All T have to say is that the man or men who enter my premises to abduct any of my children will leave the place dead, for that is the order given the men at my home. I get letters almost dally, which make some sort of threat against me, but I pay no attention to them and ordnarily I throw them into the waste- basket as soon as I read them.

I have never tried to detect who the persons are who are directing these | letters to me, but I think I know some of them. However, it is but natural to be- lieve that at least a part of them werd indited by some people who are revenge- fully disposed toward me because of my labor views. “If an attack is made upon me you will see me in at the finish and the assailant is more than likely to be stretched out AWAIT A CALL Cripple Creek Mining Troubles May Re- . quire Soldiery.

The scene of the play is in the artistic environment of the sculptor's stu- dio in modern Ttaly, and no pains are being spared by Miss Roberts to give color and atmosphere to the stage settings. { Robert I. Aitken, the young California | sculptor, has been freely consulted and with the aid of his drawings and models an exceptionally realistic and artistic ar- rangement of furnishings and decorations has been secured. In the preyailing commercialism of the modern stage it is gratifying to see a player devoting time and thought to a production that appeals to culture and intellect as does D’Anpunzio’s poetic drama, and there is no doubt that Miss Roberts’ enterprise will meet with ample encouragement and support. e e | At the Central Theater excellent busi- | ness is being done with Augustin Daly's | epectacular drama, “The Great Ruby,” and crowded houses will be the rule to | the end of the week. e “Mis.

Ringhling Brothers offer a novelty this vear in a dramatic spectacle called ‘“Je- rusalem and’ the Crusades.” They have dipped into theatrical formulas to make | this production different from all others shown under circus canvas and to make it the more telling. For instance, the equipments of a theater stage, such as scenic drops, set property pleces, border lights, calciums and other effects of the- atric use, have been adopted. This is new. The pageant and the ballet have been seen before, but this is the first time an effort has been made to tell a dramatic story with the scenic surround- ings of a theater. There are 1200 charac- ters in this spectacle, including 200 chor. isters and 200 dancing girls. Two thou- sand costumes of costly texture and his- toric accuracy are employed. Altogether it has been brilliantly effective as a de- parture from circus conventions and is a pleasing prelude to the unfolding of the circus programme proper, There are no mediocre numbers in the ring performances. The list includes about 300 acts. Many of, the artists ap- pear here for the first time. Among these are the Dollard troupe, the Fortune Brothers, the Rlos, the Alvo trio and the St. Leans. Foremost in the acrobatic list is a distinguished family of eleven and Genero and Theol. Among the gymnasts are the Potter family, the Flying Fishers, Tybell Sisters, “Upside Down” Smith and the Leon Sisters. Dolly Julian, May Davenport, Madam Royal, Ida Meiaco, Daisy Leon, Mike Rooney, Reno McCree, John Rooney, the- Hobsons, Albert Cran- dall and Rhoda Royal are promingnt in the great number of experts appearing in one of the most fascinating acts ever of- fered in the circus ring. Pearl Souder's performing elephants and Captain Webb's educated seals illustrate animal intelli- gence to a wonderful degree, The menagerie with Ringlihg Brothers' show is the best in the country. It in- cludes a baby elephant born three months ago and now in splendid spirits and health. This is the first baby ele- phant successfully reared in captivity and is a remarkable attraction.

R e — | INTERNATIONAL UNION HAS NOT GIVEN SANCTION‘. | Telephone Linemen’s Strike Is With- out the Authority of the Gov- erning Body. SAN JOSE, Sept. 2.—The telephone line- men’s strike now on along the Paclfic Coast has not the sanction of the Inter- national Union of Electric Workers. Word to this effect was received to-day by Secretary Maguire of the San Jose union. The locat union had appealed to | the international for power to settle the differences in their district 1..thout_con- ferring with the Western confercace. Officials of the international union state | they have never received official notice | of the strike, have never been consulted | in reference to the strike and have not sanctioned it. It is also stated that the | international does not recognize the West- ern conference, which ordered the strike. The local -union is told that the linemen must settle the strike among themseives, and the San Joseans are told that as far as the local union returning to work, in doing so it is not jeopardizing itself with ‘the international. This decision, it is thought, will have some bearing with the district unions. The San Jose union went out in the strike six weeks ago, but nearly three weeks ago the men returned to wcrk. Monday last they again walked out pending in- structions from the international union. Just what action the San Jose union will now take is not known, but it is believed that the men will again return to work. @ dlimieisinii e @ wild animals of exceeding rarity and _value are in this collection. There is also a herd of forty elephants, more than half in all the United States. The _big circus will be here eight days, commencing Monday next. There will be two performances daily at 2 and 38 o'clock.
