THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30, 101: Readers Appreciate Show Offer ALIEN BILL AS Georgian Gives Out Free Tickets • .j. »!*#*}* v • *!* CLOSED ISSUE Coupons Also in The American President Not to Bother Further! 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.

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. BIDSPRETTYGIRLS Men like to be worked by a woman’s tactful ingenuity.

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.

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.

Fal lows Declares Oriental Nation Is Too Near “Broke.” CHICAGO, April 30. War between the United States and Japan at pres ent is beyond the botyids of possibil 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.
