ALIEN BILL AS Georgian Gives Out Free Tickets

I
With Question Unless Japan
Objects Strenuously.
SACRAMENTO, April 30.—That
Secretary of State Bryan might
return to Washington without re
turning to Sacramento was ad
mitted by his secretary here to
day. Bryan is said to have sug
gested to President Wilson that
his further stay in Sacramento
could not alter the situation. It
i6 said here he has personally re
ported that the anti-alien land bill
will pass.
WASHINGTON, April 30.—So far
as the White House Is concerned the
Japan-Oallfornia question is closed
and Mr. Bryan will be recalled in a.
few days.
President Wilson to-day said he will
take no further action with regard to
the alien land law in California un
less Japan brings great pressure to
bear on Washington.
Inasmuch as the bill which will
pass the California Legislature to
morrow is reported by Secretary
Bryan to be in accord with all exist
ing treaties with Japan it is not seen
here how the Tokio government can
object consistently to the enactment
of this measure.
Should there be any such protest, I
however, this Government will refer
It to the regular channels of the
State Department, and if damages
are awarded by a court of claims will
pay them as it did in the case of the
Italian murders in New Orleans in
the early nineties.
Bill to Pass Despite
President’s Protest.
SACRAMENTO, April 30—So fnr
as the .results of last night’s confer
ence between William J. Bryan and
the California legislators are con
cerned, they have not advanced the
cause of the President and his Secre
tary of State an inch.
When the conference was over there
was a general knowledge that the
anti-alien bill prepared by Attorney
General Webb, under the eye of the
Governor, and with the advice of thai
Governor’s confidential friends, will
be passed by the Legislature and
promptly signed by Governor John
son.
The Governor to-day dictated a
statement to the effect that confer
ences with Secretary Bryan are over
and that the time for passing the law
has come. He said:
’’The conferences between the Sec
retary of State and Legislature were
concluded last night. We were de
lighted with Mr. Bryan and all that
he said was given the most attentive
and respectful consideration. Every
opportunity was. accorded him, and
the conference closed only when he
stated he had nothing further to say.
No Desire to Embarrass U. S.
"The members of the Government
nf California with unanimity ex
pressed themselves as desiring to aid
the national Government and in no
wise to embarrass it. The spirit per
vading the meetings was one of
friendly co-operation and full of pa
triotic purpose.
"I think the majority of the legisl
ators felt, and I certainly do myself,
that no sufficient reason has thus far
been presented to cause California to
nalt in any contemplated legislation,
if any law be enacted, it may be safe
ly asserted, treaty obligations will be
scrupulously observed.
Japanese Not Singled Out.
"The Japanese will not be singled
out by any act. The classification
made by the naturalization laws of
lite nation, established by the Consti
tution of California, and sanctioned
bv the laws of other States, will prob
ably be followed.
"This, of course, it is our legal and
moral right to do, and such enactment
by California can not justly and log
ically be either offensive or discrim
inatory."
Significance was seen to-day in the
action of the State Senate in adopting
as a substitute for the pending land
hill tite one prepared by Attorney
General Webb. The bill was adopted
after Secretary Bryan had informed
the legislators that the bill was not
satisfactory to President Wilson.

Opportunity Is Presented to See
Miss Billy Long in Absorbing
Plays Any Evening.
The opportunity offered by The
Georgian and Sunday American to get
theater tickets fre*- of cost for any
evening performance to be played by
Miss Billy Long and company at the
Atlanta Theater is beginning to be
more and more appreciated as the
readers of these papers realize what
an excellent summer stock company
is at the Atlanta. The first coupon
will be printed in The Georgian to
morrow, and these coupons will be
printed the rest of the week. Adver
tisements on other pages will fur
nish the details.
The company this week is present
ing "A Butterfly on the Wheel,” which
is seen for the first time in this city.
The play was first produced last -ea-
son by Charles Frohman, with Marie
Doro in the role of “Peggy Admas-
ton,” now being played so artistically
by Miss Long.
Miss Long, by her clever work as
■Peggy,” has demonstrated that she
can play drama as well as comedy
She reads her lines beautifully, and,
although this is only her second week
in Atlanta, she is becoming a great
favorite.
Everv mail briners Miss Long let
ters from young men, from women
and from girls asking her ail sorts
of questions, and the majority of
them ending with a request to meet
her. Miss Long, of course, does not
have the time to answer these letters,
although many of them are so kindly
that she deeply regrets her lack of
opportunity.
Since Monday night an important
change has been mad* in easting “A
Butterfly on the Wheel,” and now in
the role of the Hon. George Admas-
ton, husband of Peggy, Edwin Vail
is winning laureis. Mr. Vail has be
come a matinee favorite even in ten
days. Not only is Mr. Vail a fine,
looking man, but he is a sterling
actor. Then, too. he is a graduate of
Columbia University in New York.
Mabel Inslee is scoring as Pauline,
the maid, and Kathryn Sheldon looks
and acts the part of Lady A ft will,
a lady of fashion. Ralph Marthy has
the extremely difficult role of Hoed-
erick Collingwood. who tries to win
for himself the wife of Sir George.
The role is not a pleasant one to
play, but Mr. Marthy is an actor oi
experience and has made good from
tile first.
Comedy for Next Week.
While “A Butterfly on the Wheel"
is dramatic and intense, with com
paratively few laughs, the same can
not be said of the play scheduled for
next week “The Girl From f>ut Yon
der.” This is a romantic comedy,
with plenty of laughs, a bit of pa
thos and a great deal of action.
Miss Long will appear as “Flot
sam,” a role created by Adelaide
Thurston.

BROOKLYN, X. Y., April 30.—
Above ire some of the epigrams that
the Rev. S. Edward Young uttered
in his sermon at ‘te Bedford Reform
ed Uhurch of Brooklyn. His topic
“The Young W naan Whose Attrac
tiveness Gives Her Power,” was bas
ed on the story cf Esther, the Jewess
who swayed a tnrone and whose In
fluence is credited with saving her
race from extinction.
“The attractive young women of
this part of Brooklyn,” said the
pastor, ‘could fill every church in tlie
city every Sunday night if they used
their beauty and their attractiveness
in the right way. It’s their fault,
moreover, that the churches aren't
filled.
“There is scarcely a circle of en
tertainment, however flagrant, in
Brooklyn to-night that doesn’t con
tain at least one woman who has the
power and the attractiveness to
transfer the whole group to the house
of God.
“Attractiveness is a God-given
power. Before it leaves you, young
women. 1 efo.re vouj beauty fades, be-
“We intend to win!”
Every contestant who lias entered
The Georgian and Sunday American
race for tin- twelve beautiful Shet
land ponies announces his or her de
termination to win.
That is the right spirit, of course.
No use entering unless you intend to
win.
But don’t let the ambitions of oth
ers deter you from trying your skill
Your determination may be just as
strong—may be stronger than those
already in the race.
Particulars of The Georgian and
American’s ponv contest are an
nounced again to-day.
And have you seen the picture
of one of the ponies? Did you
ever see a sturdier, more intelligent,
more serviceable little animal por
trayed? Well, the other eleven are
just as attractive, and the carts are
just ’the sort such fine animals are
proud to pull.
Naturally the children of Atlanta
are all astir.
Children Win Parent Over.
“My children have been teasing me
for a pony ever since they’ve been
old enough to think of such things,”
said a prominent business man yes
terday. “Since The Georgian and
Sunday American have been announc
ing free ponies and carts the young
sters won’t let me rest. 1 guess I’ll
have to let them try.”
Here will be keen contenders—
children who have wanted a pony
ever since they were old enough to
think of such things. There are hun
dreds of children in Atlanta who have
felt just that way. Scores of them
will enter the contest.
' So send in the nomination blank,
which is good for 1,000 votes at the
start; begin saving the vote coupons

CHICAGO, April 30. War between

ity, according to Bishop Fallows, who
recently visited the Philippines, Japan
and China and posted himself thor
oughly on the political situation. His
chief message to the American peo
ple as a result of his study in the
Philippines is: "Don’t giv them up.
If you do, Japan will pounce upon
them without a moment’s hesitation.”
“There will be no war,” he con
tinued.
“It is out of the question. Japan’s
desire for the Philippines is a strong
incentive, and the action of Califor- ;
nia which is opposed by a respect- j
able number of Californians them
selves is another, but Japan is not
prepared for war and neither is the i
United States.
