    NOW DEBATING ON
PRESIDENTIAL
POSSIBILITIES
Most of Potential Candidates

ashington, Nov. 2. "Picking
the presidential candidates" is the
great indoor sport of congress these
days. ,
" Between intervals of debate on
the peace treaty and discussion of
strikes members of congress spnd
their time in the cloakrooms dis
cussing potential presidential candi
dates. "The Winter League of Poli
tics" is well under way, and as soon
as the peace treaty is disposed ot
there will be interesting political de
velopments. Most of the potential candidates
who are waiting for the lightning to
Strike are in the senate. 1 he demo
crats have a few possible candidates
who are in private life and some who
are in the cabinet, but republican
are at present popularly supposed to
be resting their hopes on certain sen
ators. i
Senator Never President.
Official Washington generally
tM L' s Ira nMAiiiriirM fiHliJl
! from the senate. The convention
generally upsets these selections and
the United States is yet to have a
president who has been a senator.
The most of the presidential goi
ip is heard at the capitol and prin
cipally in the senate cloakrooms, al
though house members are active in
their favorite son booms.
Progressive republicans now are
laying their bets on Senator Hiram
Johnson of California as the next
republican candidate. These bets
9.rt not without takers, however, for
other republican senators who are
acknowledged to be in the race in
clude Senator Miles Poindexter of
Washington, Senator, Kellogg of
'Minnesota, Senator Lenroot of Wis
consin, Senator Knox of Massa
chusetts, Senator Harding of Ohio,
Senator Watson of Indiana and
' Senator Cummins of Iowa. These
are but a few of the names that have
been mentioned, for there is hardly
a man who reaches the senate who
uucsii i uuu up tt some lime or an
other as a possible candidate for
president
In the democratic camp the gos
sip runs considerably outside of the
halls of congress. There are three
candidates most frequently men
tioned. These are former Secretary
of the Treasury McAdoo, Attorney
General A. Mitchell Palmer and
' Senator Gilbert Hitchcock of Ne
' braska.
Counting Wilson Out.
' President Wilson's illness has
given greater confidence to the po
'' tential candidates in the 'democratic
, party. They are now convinced
.tnat tne possibilities ot a tnira term
for the present incumbent are slight
"and' they are setting to with a vim
, to get away with a good start to-1
ward the convention honors.
'', Friends of former Secretary Mc-
Adoo rely upon his record as a pub
lic official and his connections with
the present leader of the democratic
party to win for them. Attorney
' General Palmer's hnnsters are
counting upon the personality of
. reduce the high cost of living. Sen
ator Hitchcock's boom rides on the
league of nations band wagon, for
' he is put forth as the leader of that
cause, which, it is predicted, will as
' suredly be an issue in the coming
3 .campaign. '
if- Among those who are now also
j mefitlaned are Senator Ponierene of
I Ohio, Senator Myers of Montana,

Senator Underwood and Vice Presi-

likely candidates in the states, in

.however, never counts on candidates
' outside 6f official life until the votes

AT THE
THEATERS
The Rt. Rev. Monsignor Casimiro
Casimiri, conductor, of the Vatican
Choirs, which comes to the Omaha
Auditorium next Saturday night, is
considered the most sympathetic
leader of the present time by quali
fied judges who have been in close
touch with his work in Rome: He
ha$ the power, they say, of bring
ing out every possible means of
expression in the people under bis
direction, augmented by his native
talent in sensing values and com
binations. Omaha is fortunate in having the
opportunity to hear the singers of
the Vatican Choirs under the direc
tion of such an eminent conductor.

Bostor." Mass., Nov. 2. The first;
Rhoades scholars to be appointed
from the United States for two
years were announced tonight by1
Prof. Frank Aydelotte of the.
Massachusetts Institute of Technol
ogy, American secretary to the
Rhoades trustee, who is in charge at
the selections. The names of 63 were
announced, the full number but one
allotted to the United States this
year instead of the yearly quota of
o2. The 64th will be announced later.
The same number will be appointed
next year, Professor Aydelotte said,
to make , up for the year during
which the scholarships were sus
pended en account of the war.
The men selected this year were
those who would have gone to Ox
ford in 1918 and 1919, respectively,
had it not been for the war.
Those, selected as of 1918 will
enter' Oxford next January and
those selected as of 1919 will enter
next October. The competition was
keener than at any-time during the
IS years since the scholarship began.
Professor Aydelotte said this was
due in a large measure to increased
interest in England resulting from
the wa'r... . ' .,. ,.
Many in Military Service. ,
A large proportion of the candi
dates were men who had been in
military service, and many .of them
had already studied a short term at
Oxford under the educational plan
arranged by the American expedi
tionary forces,';. . '" :
Scholarship was also increased by'
the announcement that the Univer
sity of Oxford would in the future
offer the 1 ph. d. degree.
;; After next year the regular yearly
quota for the United States will be
32, the distribution among the states
being. so .arranged that each State
will send one man two years out of
every three The method of selec
tion has been altered in two ways.
The qualifying examination in
Latin, Greek- and mathematics, for
merly required .of all candidates, has
now been abandoned and commit
tees of -selection are composed of
ex-Rhoades scholars acting under
.ihe chairmanship of one of the leading-educational
men of the state; -
Record Being Computed., .'
The war record of the American
Rhoades scholars is now being com
puted by Prof. B. E. Schmidt, West
crfi Reserve university. Between
250 and 300 of the 400 Rhoades schol
ars who have gone to Oxford since
the scholarships began in 1914 were
in military or government service
during the war,' most of "them in the
American army, a few in the British
and French. Twelve American
Rhoades scholars lost their lives in
service. " v

FRANCIS X. BUSHMAN him
self and Beverly Bayne herself
were at home to a considerable
concourse of the neishbors at the
Boyd theater last night, where they
played "The . Master Thief." and
were most cordially welcomed. The
acquaintance begun at the moving
picture houses is now extended by
actual presence of the favorites, liv
ing, moving, talking, through the
extent of as interesting a five-reeler
as ever held a crowd breathless in
a darkened theater.
Long experience before the cam
era has given this popular pair cer
tainty, 01 movement and posture, a
definite noise tnat is one of the
actor's most valuable assets - and.
which is seldom acquired through
ordinary methods. This is not to
intimate that anything of cocksure
ness marks the attitude of either;
whatever quality of the obvious ap
pears is the result of construction
of the play and not because the
actor is inclined to thrust forward
his knowledge of the end. Even
withHhat overshadowed, it is inter
esting to watch how the details are
worked out.
And Mr. Bushman is kept as busy
as a star ought to be through the
prologue, three acts and four scenes
required for unfolding the really in
teresting mystery yarn that almost
explodes in the tremendous climax
right at the end. The melodramatic
movement of the piece is lighted
by some excellent comedy passages,
not too subtle, while its staging is
very well done. This is particularly
true of the closing set, which pre
sents a really novel idea, to describe
which would spoil the mystery that
pervades the proceedings up to this
point. - V
Mr. Bushman is humanly effec
tive, even where he might ei-sily be
stilted, and through all his scenes
moves quietly and easily to the re
sult aimed at. Miss Bayne is charm
ing in her way, and shows fine abil
ity in her tender scenes with her
father, and is particularly good
when beset by the perplexities that
would bother anybody under the
circumstances. Surrounding them is
a well selected group of competent
and dependable players, who are do
ing much to make the experiment of
introducing the "movie stars to,
the spoken drama a great success.
Mike Sacks is pretty nearly a
whole show in himself, but he takes
breathing spells 1 and allows the
chorus, the singers, dancers and
other comedians to add their mite
to the progress of "Oh, Baby,"
which began its stay at the Brandeis
yesterday afternoon. Manager Mar
cus advertises a girl show and he
tells the truth, for they are there in
a pleasing variety. They are not
afraid to display -their charms, to
sing, dance and otherwise behave as
interested participants in the pro
ceedings. In one scene the man-.
agement shows how a little economy
may be practiced under the new "A.
E. A.'' contract, which requires that
the chorus be furnished with shoes
and stockings. In this particular
scene a lot of,cqstly silk hosiery is
required and the problem of saving
a little is solved by letting each girl
wear one stocking, one having the
dexter and the : other the sinister
.imb neatly clad. The. effect is
pleasing from as far away as the
front row of the orchestra chairs!. '
Sacks is droll, unctuous, steadv
working and never goes beyond the
easy limits of good taste to get his
laughs. The songsWe new, the ert-
semble numbers well arranged, the
dances wcjrthy and the music care
fully selected, while costumes and
scenery are lavish and in perfect
harmony with the many spectacles
presented. The opening and clos
ing sets are beautiful and the whole
is good entertainment.
Gus Edwards, in his "Welcome
Home Song Revue," at the Orphe-
um this week, may be said to be
welcome to Omaha, judging by the
reception which ;was accorded him
yesterday at the opening. This
well-known composer and producer,
whose School Days,- is remem
bered by many, has a prominent
part in his latest vaudeville offer
ing. Vincent -O'Donnell, juvenile
tenor, made a hit by singing "That
Wonderful Mother of Mine," "Oh,
What a Pal Was Mary," and the
closing number, "Welcome Home,
Laddv Bov. Welcome Home. Alice
and Hazel Furness assist in the act,'
which is fully up to the Edwards
standard of entertainment.
Molly Mclntyre, assisted by Ed
gar Mason, Ray Brown and Walter
Dickinson, play "The Love Chase,"
by Lester Lonergan. This act is an
Irish romantic playlet and is offered
by Martin Beck. Miss Mclntyre, in
riding habit, makes a winsome col
leen. The playlet is pleasing in -lines
and presentation. '
Lydia Barry is back again with
her original manner of saying and
singing just .what is on her mind.
Her personality and style of attire
carry her a long ways into the good
graces of her audiences. Blanche
and Jimmie Creighton, in . "Mud
town Vaudeville," provoke consid
erable hilarity with their, rube an
tics. The act is a continuous laugh.
Royal Gascoignes is -the name of a
man, woman and dli, being a com
bination of unusual ability. The
male member of the trio is perhaps
the best juggler that lias been here
for a long time. He offers several
real novelties in his art of balancing.
Jean Belt and Ollie Wood are
misses who offer four Satisfactory
dances, numbers with changes of
costumes. They display skill in toe
and eccentric dancing. Harry and
Ada Vivian demonstrate - the skill
wheh may be acquired in marks
manship. Topics of the Day and
Kinograms are offered as additional
screen features. .
At the Empress "Going Some,"
miniature musical comedy, delighted
patrons of the show opening Sunday
afternoon. The headline attraction
is supported by Bill Pruit, the "cow
toy minstrel. Lee and Lawrence,
who have an interesting act, and the
Levine trio, a most entertaining
combination. In the photoplay "The
Girl in Bohemia," Peggy Hyland is
seen when best A Mack Swain
comedy and the Pathe News com
plete the bill.
Violet Tree, the diminutive Fan
Tan in "Chin Chin," always gathers
in the largest share of energetic
applause in her dance with Walter
Wills. This particular featurev is
entitled "Danse Poetique," the con
cluding motion being the hurling of
little Fan Tan over the garden wall.
Do you know what "Chin Chin"
means? That's the Chinese for any
New Building Proposed for
Police Station and City Jail
Designed to Be Four Stories and Basement High Abso
lutely Fireproqf Offices Conveniently Arranged
to Care For All Divisions of "the Department of
Public Safety, h
The proposed new police station
and city jail haSj been designed in
the Italian renaissance style' It is
to replace the old city jail, now lo
cated on Jhe southeast corner of
Dodge and Eleventh streets, and
will face on Eleventh street, with
the main entrance at the center of
the front.
The building is to be four stories
and basement Tiigh with the floor
of the first story on the level of
the Dodge street entrance. Pro
vision is made in the rear of the
Dodge street portion of the build
ing for a fire company with ac
commodations for three pieces of
apparatus. The entrance for po
lice officers is also on Dodge street.
The first story will contain an
assembly room for police, quarters
for captains, sergeants and desk
sergeants. A large vault, search
room and "Store room, are provided
in connection with the desk ser
geant,- and the fire department will
be housed on this floor.
: There will be a passenger elevat
or for the public, and a jail ele
vator, both of which will pass
through and connect all stories. A
public staircase will be in the front
lobby' and a jail staircase in the
prisoners' corridor.
The second story will be given
over to offices for the chief of po
lice, detectives, an assembly room,
telephone operator, toilets, sleep
ing quarters for the firemen.
, The third story will contain the
police court room, with offices for
the judge, attorney, and clerk of the
court; also the Bertillion and tele
graphic departments. There will be
rooms for male and female prison
ers awaiting trial, witness rooms,
toilets, laundries and the like.
The fourth story will contain a
large cell room for men prisoners,
with accommodations for 100, also
women's and juvenile cells, prop
erly segregated; quarters for the
matron, surgeon, operating room
and infirmary. This story will con
nect with the fourth story of the
present detention home, where all
cooking will be done for the pris
oners. The building Will be constructed
according to the very latest require
ments of fire proof construction, of
reinforced concrete throughout,
with all standing finish of metal as
far as possible. The floors will be
hardened concrete, partitions of
hollow tile, and windows framed in
metal with wire glass. The present
heatine plant, located in the base
ment of the garage, will be adequate
for the new building. Cell work
will be of the latest improved type,
with special regard for ventilation
and sanitation.
The first story will be of Bed
ford stone, and the body of the
building .above this of dark red
brick laid in white mortar. Plans
for the new building, drawn by
George L. Fisher, Omaha architect,
were designed to produce results
devoid of the severe character usu
ally adopted for buildings of this
class.

Fixing Date for Final
Vote on Peace Treaty
Will Be Decided Today
Washington, Nov. 2. The ques
tion for fixing a date for a final vote
on the German peace treaty a
question which involves incidentally
an approximate time for adjourn
ment of the present session of con
gress willcome up for action Mon
day in the senate. .
Possibility of agreement on the
order of the dominant question is
not viewed w.ith optimism either by
republican or democrat leaders. Pre
dictions were' general tonight that
no agreement of any kind would be
reached and that the treaty's con
sideration would proceed as usual.
Senate leaders generally desire an
adjournment of congress about No
vember 10. "
The senate will resume debate to
morrow on the motion of Senator
La Follette, republican of Wiscon
sin1, to strike out the entire labor
section of the treaty. Other amend-,
nients to be acted on are that ot
Senator Gore,; democrat of Okla
homa, providing popular rcfereu
dums on war declarations and that
of Senator Lodge to strike out the
Shantung clause.
In the house, attention will be
centered on the railroad legislation,
which is to be reported from com
mittee late this week- if possible with
a view "to pa'ssage before adjourn
ment. Important measures in conference
between the two houses this week
are the oil and coal land leasing bill,
the Cummins bill restoring the in
terstate' commerce . commission's
rate making powers, and the Edge
bill authorizing foreign export
finance corporations'.'':
Two new and important measures
to be launched tomorrow in the sen
ate are the sugar control bill of Sen
ator McNary, republican of Ore
gon, and shipping policy bills by
Chairman Jones of the senate com
merce committee.
Although senator? and representa
tives are greatly disturbed by the

feeling at the capitol seems to be

Jury, Trying O'Neill
Man for Murder Fails
to Agree on Verdict
West Plains, Mo. Nov. 2. (Spe
cial Telegram.) A jury in the
Carter county circuit court at Van
Buren Saturday failed, after several
hours deliberation, to agree on
verdict in the case of Frank Welton.
who is charged with the murder of
his 25-year-old wife, Pearl Welton,
last January. i
Mrs. Carrie Ericksoh Hofland of
O'Neill, Neb., who for 13 years lived
with Welton as his common law
wife at O'Neill and who twice had
confessed that .she choked Mrs.
Welton to death and threw her body
into the cistern during a fit of
jealousy when she came to the Wel
ton home, denied her confessions
Saturday,' and," in her testimony
tried to blame the crime on Wel
ton. . . "
Mrs. Hofland was brought to Van
Buren from Jefferson City where
she is serving a 10-year sentence in
the penitentiary for the murder of
Mrs. Welton. What influence or
circumstance caused her to change
her story in which, until Saturday,
she steadfastly shielded Welton, is
a mystery. '

BOOSTING the circulation of the
newspaper owned by his old
college chum, Wallace Reid,
playing the star role in, "The Lot
tery Man" at the Strand, offers him
self as a husband to be won in a
drawing contest run by the paper.
The lucky number is; won by a poor
and homely relative of the owner
of the paper, but the maid of the
house suddenly appears, denounc
ing the scheme because the lucky
woman stole her number from the
cookie jar in the pantry. Reid, who
has been in love with Wanda Haw
ley, his chum's cousin, declares the
contest void, and splits the $300,000
proceeds with the butler, who claims
the maid as his financee. Wanda
starts to leave the home, but Reid
overtakes her and discovers that
the suitcase she is carrying is full
of chances on the ''Lottery Man."
They confess their love for each
other and the story ends happily.
Usually one good fight, or at
the most two, are considered suf
ficient for movie fans. But in "The
Joyous Liar," which began a four
day run at the Sun yesterday, J.
Warren Kerrigan has three big
fights and a variety of little ones.
One fight is in an abandoned house
against three auto thieves.1 Another
is a slapJbang affair that is almost
as enjoyable to the spectator as to
the hero. The third scrap is with
the colice. in which both guns and
fists are used, and the hero steals
the "Black Maria" which has called
ior him, and escapes in that. Humor
and romance vie with the thrill of
adventure and make "The Joyous
Liar" an interesting picture.
Of extraordinary interest, not
only to lovers of the motion .picture,
but likewise to all who appreciate
rhe highest art in its various mani
festations, is David Wark Griffith's
screen creation, "Broken Blossoms,"
which began a full week's run at the
Rialtd Sunday. - ;
There are many significant "bits"
of character in "Broken Blossoms,"
that have a great deal to do with
creating that "atmosphere" through
whicht the true poetic beauty of the

story deals with one Louis Gran
taire, who inherits a vast woodland
estate at the death of his father.
Posing as an ordinary lumber-jack,
he goes into the camps to rid them
of the bullying element that has
given the game a black reputation,
he no sooner arrives , .at the - first
camp when trouble starts. He licks
the worst bully there, then repeats
the same "medicine" to the cow
ards at camps 2 and 3. Affairs go
rushingly for Grantaire until he
meets pretty Annette, a girl of the
woods. . She. admires his strength,
but does not-like his taming meth
ods. He loves her desperately, but
she scorns his pleas and sends him
away, beaten for the first time, but
the climax, which is fast and dra
matic, is satisfactory to the spec
tators. "The Brute Breaker" will
remain the stellar attraction at the
Moon theater up to and including
Wednesday night. .

No General Strike in
Support of Steel Workers
Chicago, Nov. 2. John Fitzpat
rick, chairman of the national steel
workers' committee, at a meeting of
the Chicago Federation of Labor
said there would v be no general
strike in support of the steel strike.
His statement was called forth by
an attempt to introduce a resolu
tion calling for a general strike.
"Not even the American Federa
tion of Labor could call a strike of
all workers," said Mr. Fitzpatrick.
"That is up to the Jnternational
unions. There is no hope or possi
bility that a general strike can be
called. The committee in charge of
the strike has discussed every angle
of this matter but I cannot tell you
what our plans are now."

Raps on Doors in Carbon; Pa.
Said to Be Ghost of In
dian's Victim.
Greensburg, Pa., Nov. 2. Resi
dents of Carbon, a mining village
southwest of here, are orl edge over
the weird nightly roamings of what
is declared to be a ghost, clad in a
snow white gown.
This ghost, it is said, has on three
different occasions, between mid
night and 1 o'clock, aroused Peter
Oleson, a Norwegian miner who
lives alone in a small house, with
its strange rappings on his door,
more vigorous than those of Poe's
raven.
Oleson arose promptly on each
occasion, and when he opened his
front door the figure of what he be
lieved was a young woman in a
white robe stood on the step.
"What do you want? Come into
the house. I-would not hurt you,"
Ileson declares he told the strange
figure, but he failed to get any an
swer, and when he would attempt
to lay hands on it the ghost would
give a shrill cry and disappear.
On. three succeeding nights the
ypecter appeared at the Oleson
home and three times the snow white
figure refused the Norwegian's in
vitations to come into the house.
Frank 'Piso, an Indian neighbor,
was also called to his door in re
sponse toj the knockings of the
"woman" in white. Frank's expe
rience was sirrtilar to that of Ole
son. '
William Maiersja grocer and local
"ghost authority," says the nocturnal
visitor is the ghost of a pretty
young woman captured by the In
dians in their flight from eabtcrn
Pennsylvania a century, and three
quarters ago. with the intention qf
making her the bride of one of the
Indian chief's sons.
