Cochran Declares He Has

Chicago. Jan. 4. Charles' Cochran.
an English theatrical magnate, who
proposes to promote in London a
world's championship fight between
lack Dempsey and Oeorges Car
pentier, said here today he had sent
personal representative to Los
Angeles to confer with Dempsey's
manager.
Cochran has offered Dempsey
flat guarantee of $200,000 and, in ad
dition, says he will guarantee the
champion 10 weeks of theatrical en
eagement in England and France at
$5,U00 a week.
He also said that he not only had
the French champion's signature to
contract calhnsr for $105,000. but
has advanced $25,000 to Carpentier.
London is the logical place for
the battle," said Mr. Cochran. "It
neutral ground. We have theie
all the facilities necessary for staging
world s championship and can be
assured that our investment will be
secure.
"We are offering Dempsey the
largest sum ever paid to a fighter. I
m doubtful that we would be justi
fied in placing so much money at
stake in the United Mates. 1- am
certain there would be no interfer
ence in London, and more, the city
would draw the largest attendance."

TUESDAYS. THURSDAYS

' By the Ben Hur Dancing Club
Colfax 4923
London, Jan. 4. Three hundred
Sinn Feiners attacked the police bar
racks at Lamgtohill at 10 o clock
Saturday night, according to a dis
patch to the Central News from
Cork. The attacking forces fired
volleys for three hours and then
blew up the end of the building with
bombs. Its occupants were made
prisoners while the raiders looted
the barracks.
The barracks were occupied by
a sergeant and five constables,
who returned the raiders' fire.
Finding eventually that they were
unable to gain an entrance, the
raiders threw bombs, entered the
breach made in the building anH
seized and handcuffed the police
men. They searched the buildings,
removing the arms, ammunition, ac
coutrements and money, then held
a council as to the disposal of the
police, and decided to leave them
bound, but threatened that if an at
tempt was made to repair the
building they would return and
complete its destruction.
Cut Telephone Wires.
The raiders left after cutting the
telephone communications, but po
lice assistance finally arrived from
Cork. None of the policemen was
hurt. The sergeant's wife and fam
ily, also in the barracks, were un
injured. An Exchange telegraph dispatch
from Cork says:
"A further sensational outrage is
reported from the Cork district.
The police barracks was blown up
last night. The police sergeant and
his family had a miraculous escape,
the explosives having been placed
in an adjoining stable.
Aid Is Sent.
"Some time prior to the attack
large numbers, of bicycles and mo
torists were seen converging upon
the village of Carrigtohill, eight
miles from Cork. ' They had no
lights and when challenged by the
ipolice, patrols, escaped into the
neighboring fields. The patrols re
turned to their quarters and found
that the wire communications with
the surrounding towns had been cut.
They managed to get news to Mid
dleton, and. armed police were dis
patched to the scene."
"The press association says that
100 men were , engaged. Minor at
tacks on the police barracks, also
occurred Saturday night at Inchgee
lagh and South Kilmurry."
Cage Candidates at
Central High in First
Week of Practice
Coach Harold Mulligan of the
Central high school completed the
first week of basket ball "grind"
last week. Prospects for this sea
son are brighter than ever before,
according to Assistant Coach Jo
seph Schmidt. All but one of last
year's men are training for the
school quintet this season.
Capt. Arthur Logan has been un
able to participate in the practice on
account of a wrenched knee. He has
been at. the regular courses in spite
of his injury and has "taken in" all
of the expert advice offered by the
coach. Another casualty has pre
sented itself in the form of a well
blackened and swollen eye, proudly
borne by Gforgealker.
Leon Mangold, Leo Konecky, Ray
Clement and Arthur Burnham have
been lining up with the choice five
with Leslie Swenson, captain of the
junior quintet, and David Chesno.
Class basket ball has been im
proving steadily. About 40 men are
striving for positions, on the five
which represent their classes. Class
captains and coaches have already
been chosen and further progress is
expected in the next tew weeks.
"The principal purpose of the in
terclass basket ball games is to al
low the coach to watch green ma
terial develop," declared Coach Mul
ligan the other day.

(i JACK 0' LANTERN," Charles
-J Dillingham's musical extrava
v ganza, hich opened a week's
engagement at the Brandeis last
night, fairly swept the big audience
off its feet.
Of course, Fred Stone is "Jack
o' Lantern" and Jack o' Lantern" is
Fred Stone. If there's anything this
clown of clowns can't do no one has
discovered it. If he isn't versatile
lie isn't anything, and after seeing
iiim romp, sing, dance, skate and
juhe ms way tnrougn tne many
scenes of "Jack o' Lantern" one
doesn't wonder whv he has such a
hard time getting off of Broadway.
There are so many good things
in "Jack o' Lantern,!' so many sur
prises, that it's like a three-ring
circus on a stage. Mr. Stone makes
clowning a fine art. He's bobbing
up all the time in some new antic,
some new character, that the au
dience is kept on edge waiting to
see what he'll do next. He's a vaga
bond, a i Frenchman, a Scotchman, a
Russian, an English music hall
singer, an Italian, and in the final
scene of the big spectacle gives an
impersonation of Charlotte, the
noted woman skater, star of the New
York Hippodrome. In this scene
there's a real ice pond on the stage
and Mr. Stone gives an exhibition
that would make most professional
skaters gasp.
One of the features of the show is
the dancing of Violet Zell, who has
been appropriately called the "hu
man rag baby." Her work with the
master clown gets a big hand.
Seemingly no Fred Stone show
would be complete without the six
Brown brothers and their syncopat
ing saxophones. This is the orig
inal clown saxophone band. The
Moonbeam girls ! do some clever
singing and dancing, and the big
Globe theater chorus is made up of
leal beauties, -who wear some won
derful costumts. Katie Smith has
a daring skating number.
Some of-the other stars in "Jack
o Lantern" who come in for their
share of the honors are Frank Her
bert and Coly Lorella. a Dair of
dandy acrobats: Teresa Valeric,
Harold West, Charles Maet, Oscar
Ragland, Roy Hoyer, Helen Barlow
Hazel Renaud, Penelope Willanl,
Jet Stanley. Sigma Pierce the Hoy
sisters, 'Ursula Chare, Kathryn
Walsh, Elsa May and Mabelle Ce
dars, There are two acts and eight
scenes in "Jack o' Lantern," which
was written by R. H. Burnside and
Anne Caldwell. Ivan Caryll is re
sponsible for the many catchy musi
cal numbers. "Jack o' Lantern" will
be at the Brandeis all week, with
matinees Wednesday and Saturday.
Cosmo Hamilton lias again pro
vided a delectable study of a girl,
this time opposite in character to
the one he presented in "The Blind
ness of Virtue." In that well remem
bered comedy the young lady hero
ine was led to the brink of a preci
pice she did not discover just be
cause Dame Nature asserted her
self, and she yielded to promptings
she could not comprehend. In
"Scandal" h;s ptrl is sophisticated
s.nd entirely self-centered, seeking
what she calls "fun" and "life ' at the
expense of the opposite sex. It
pleases her to play with things she
ought to shun, and finally, to extri
cate herself from a tight fix she in
volves a real he-man by alleging a
secret marriage with him. This -satisfies
family pride, and amares inti
mates, but does not meet the entire
approval of the man, who has some
old-fashioned Ideas of his own, and
proceeds to put them into effect.
His method of teaching the sejfish
young person a wholesome, salutary
lesson is the most logical feature of
a comedy that in some respects lays
a heavy demand on the credence of
the spectator.- Mr. Hamilton has
gone almost as far as his license al
lows in order to establish the situa
tion which gives him the climax,
smashing-as it is, a quivering-bit of
t'enuine life. The third act provides
the convention ant'.-ctimax. the let
down needed to. send folks away
trom the theater in a pleasant frame
of mind because everything ends so
happily. It would have been far
more logical just to have left
the situation as it exists at the close
of the second act, where the heroine
sobs in 'her "riighf'e," spurned with
contempt by the man whom she had
thought was about to demand th
ultimate price for his acquieence in
her deceotioli. .
Miss Elba Andrus brings to the
lole of the girl a. piquant quality of
humor, and fairly realizes the de
mands of the scene in which she
makes the surrender. It is brief, but
is splendidly brought off. Its suc
cess, though, is chiefly due to the
human touch that Coates Gwynne
gives the man in this moment of ulti
mate tension.
A carefully selected company sup
ports these leads in the presentation
of the comedy, which opened a
week's engagement at the Boyd last
night, where it was welcomed by a
large audience that greatly enjoyed
the proceedings.
Amelia Stone and Arman Kaliz,
in an artistic musical and dancing
production entitled "Romance," and
Saranoff, accompanied by Billy Ab
bott and the Winter Garden Girls,
are! two stellaV acts which lead the
splendid bill at the Orpheum this
week. .
Miss iStone sings a 9 sweetly and
is as winesome as when she ap
peared here on a previous occasion
with her talented companion who
is clever in the characterization of
a chivalrous Frenchman. Their
dancing is the essence of grace.
Paul Parnell at the piano is an es
sential part of the , offering which
was well received yesterday.
Saranoff, a diminutive specimen
of male versatility,.is assisted by a
clever little company. Their mu
sical comedy was arranged, by Her
man Timbcrg of "School Days"
memory. As Sammy, the Hat rack
boy 6f Viol-Inn, Saranoff is the life
of the act. He chatters entertain
ingly, sings, dances and offers a
series of imitations on his violin.
"When the Boys Come Back," by
Mr. Abbott and the Violin Girls, is
one of the costume hits of the act,
which is a rollicking bit of enter
tainment from first to last.
Miss Venita Gould, known in
Omaha professionally as well as
privately, made a distinct hit with
her impersonations of Bert Wil
liams, playing poker; Mary Nash
in a scene from "The Man.. Who
Came Back;" Julian Eltinge, Grace
LaRue, George M. Cohan, Eva Tan
guay and Jack Norworth. Miss
Gould was required to respond to
several encores.
Lynn and Howland have an amus
ing dialogue, in which the former
appears as a vapid ' Englishman.
Kitner and Reaney evoke cyclonic
laughter in "An Ocean Episode."
The Zarells have an athletic act of
merit. The Pickfords amuse with
their juggling and acrobatics. Topics
of the Day and Kinograms are the
usual screen features which round
out a uniformly excellent vaudeville
program.
This week at the Gayety theater
Arthur Pearson is offering his new
show, "Girls a la Carte," for a week's
engagement. Notices of it say it- is
the best thjng he lias evr done.
The fashion revue in the second act
displays quite the most gorgeous
wardrobe ever seen at the Gayety.
Ladies' matinee daily at 2:15.
A comedy of character, taken from
life and staged under the direction
of Allen Dinehart, "The Meanest
Man in the World" is leading the
bill at the Empress. It is impres
sively presented by a group of actors
who put the real punch into its ef
fects. The Whirlwind Hagens sus
tain their name by the speed with
which they go through an ambitious
dancing program. Keno, Keyes and
Melrose, a trio of accomplished ac
robats, do a lot of funny as well as
difficult stunts in the course of their
performance, in which comedy min
gles with skill and strength. Adams
and Guhl wind up the vaudeville pro
gram with a blackface comedy act in
which some minstrel fun is passed
out and several good songs are pui
over. Gladys Brockweil in the Will
iam Fox production, "Thieves," ,:s
the photoplay feature. It is an1 in
teresting story. The Mack Swain
comedy and the news features com
plete the bill.
George Huff Says He Is
Too Old to Keep Coaching
Urbana, 111., Jan. 4. George Huff,
for23 years coach of base ball at the
University of Illinois, has turned
that department over to one of his
pupils, "Potsy" Clark. Huff remains
as director of athletics at the uni
versity, but said today he had
reached an age when coaches should
bench themselves.
In Huff's years with baseball Illi
nois won eleven championships and
tied for the honor once. Huff be
came, nationally famous in 1902 when
he took his team east and vanquished
Yale, Princeton, West Point' and

Strand The anger of a strong
minded man when he discovers that
h;s love has been betrayed by an
unprincipled woman is a vital factor
in "The Beauty Market," a photo
production starring Katherine Mac
Donald at the Strand, and which
will be the offering at this picture
house up to and including Wednes
day evening. Miss MacDonald takes
the part of Amelia Thorndyke,
financially unable to bear the heavy
expense to which she is put as a
member of fashionable society, but
inclined to brave the game as long
as possible in order to win an ever
lasting reward for her suffering a
wealthy husband.
