Quit Sweeper's Job to Be
; Doorkeeper in, Arch St.
j Theatre Worked Hard
and Never Complained.
fiome years ngo ix raUier Industrious
ftby did oild Jobs about a Jowclry shop.
te swept out the place, cleaned Iho win-
povts, tended the fires, ran errands and
Soloed with other work Just to keep busy.
:Tot thla he was rewarded etch week with
i, dollar arid a half.
', But he was cheerful about It all, and
laughed and whistled whllo ho worked.
lte spent five years In the shop, and as
'imw ,vcr0 hafdi salary Increases were
iw and far between. It was Just about
Ue Hmo ot '10 clv" War nnJ most P
pie were glad they wero living.
The youngster llnaliy saw what he
tnnirht n. better oDnnrtunltv. It wna it
rjoti as "pit" doorkeeper at tho old Arch
Bf Street xneairr, men Known as wncaiiey
BS-' Drew's. Ho took his sunnp dlspo
P iltlon with him and had a happy word
Ki for those who passed boyond tho ortlcl.il
Beortals.
Kt Nor did It tako him long to get ao
3QUalntcd with tho actor folk, and ho nl-
iways Know wnai me diii lor mo coming
week was. And any ono who wanted to
know anything In this connection always
Hiked tho ltttlo doorkeeper, who was a
veritable bureau of Information.
Ho did a little moro than he had to do
end had Initiative Without knowing Just
exactly what It waB.
The boy soon found that courtesy and
willingness to oblige others mndo a
winning combination. Ho llttlo dreamed
that he was opening a greater door all
the time the door of opportunity, which
fart la tho nath that ennhlpri him tn hn.
come a powaj in tno tnoatrlcal world.

fitted young Zimmerman like a glove,
and the new houso was opened most
suspiciously with Edwin Forrest, a great
tragedian.
V- It Was hero that tho formnr flnnrltnennr
developed the characteristics which wero
to count In his eventful future. There
wero no fancy Jobs In thoso days and
everybody had to work. Tho youthful
treasurer found himself doing many other
things In connection with tho business.
lEven then ho talked to the point and
laid "yes" and "no" aulcklv nnd de.
,'ddealy.
'Borne time later tho energetic youth ac
cepted a. puuiiiuu ai mo uiympic inoatre,
New York, and subsequently went on tho
read for eight years with an operatic
combination as treasurer and manager.
Ho emerged from this experience with
the same firm characteristics, and with
B. F. Nixon, of this city, leased the Chest
nut Street Opera House. That was about
25 years ago. How they prospered Is a
natter of history
Sir. Zimmerman mode It a point to tnlte
. man at his word, and mnny of his im
portant contrncts wero made In verbal
form only. Tho complicated phraseology
of Ihe somowhat weird theatrical con
tracts did not nppenl to him In tho leant.
'. ,Ht f reouently asserted. "If I can't tako
a man's word I don't want his contract."
.A few years nro the former dnnrWoi-nnr
iwrted to build some theatres on his own
account, and now owns four exclusively

'He has a handsome homo on North
Broad fitreot and a beautiful estate near
Clenslde, which Is known as Villa Vesta.
'His two sons, J. Fred, Jr., and Frank.
followed in their father's footsteps.

J. FRED ZIMMERMAN
PORTER AND LIQUOR 3IEN
TO PLAN CAHARET FIGHT
Safety Director Would Co-operoto to
Dlvorco Liquor and Music.
Director Porter has called a conferenco
tot next Monday or Tuesday thoroughly
to thresh out tho falluro of tho "uplift"
movement Btartcd by tho liquor men to
ellmlnato cnbarets, dancing and muslo
from cafes and saloons. Tho several offi
cials of tho Liquor Dealers' Association
hnvo been asked to attend, and an effort
will be mado to placo tno question be
fore tho court, so a definite ruling can bo
obtained.
Director Porter said hn In nnrrv n ii..
that Noll Bonner Is resigning as presi
dent of tho national association, becauso
of dissension In tho ranks of tho local
liquor men and becauso brewery Interests
refused to aid the plans for eliminating
condition? that tho liquor men decided
reflected upon tho trade.
"Mr. Bonner and others started a move
ment that reflected great credit upon this
city and tho liquor mon should be sus
tained by public opinion," said Director
Porter. "Their movement to 'uplift' tho
business and eradicate objectionable fea
tures was a most worthy one nnd Bhould
not be permitted to fall.
"I havo feared this turn In affairs all
along. However, wo must get together
and map out somo plan of action. First
of all, the question of cntcrtalnmonts and
dances must bo taken before the proper
courts and a ruling obtained Given an
opinion, I will follow It to tho letter. By
discussing this situation calmly I feel wo
can decide on a plan of action, and when
wo havo tho proper material to place
before tho courts thero is no question In
my mind that Judges Staako and Patter
son will willingly gtvo us tho benefit of
their good counsel."
Nell Bonner acmes that he has re
signed as yet. An assoclato of his said
that Bonner feels humiliated, because
after tho meeting of liquor dealers, at
which It was decided to start the "uplift"
campaign he went to Cincinnati, Chicago
and Boston and told about it, and then
came back and found the automatic
pianos and other musical Instruments
Btlll operating In tho back rooms of
saloons

STATE TO CALL EVELYN
THAW IN SANITY TRIAL
Cook Saya Ho Will Have Her
Testify Against Husband.
Both Sides Prepare Gases.
NDW YonK, Juno 26.-Counsel for
Harry K. Thaw today said they hoped to
close tho dlroct testimony In Thaw's san
ity lest on Monday with tho examination
ot nvo experts and perhaps ono or two
moro lay witnesses. There being no ses
sion of court, the day was spent by both
Thaw and the State In preparing for next
weeks work, which perhaps will end the
hearing and see Stanford White's slayer
a free man after nine years
All other features of thn Thaw cut
were overshadowed by Deputy Attorney
General Frank Cook's announcement that
the State would summon Evelyn Ncsblt
Thaw as a witness against her husband.
Mr Cook hod sold that ho did not desire
Thaw's actress wife as a witness and
John B. Stanchflcld, chief counsel for
Thaw, said tho same thing, but today,
when It was learned that Mrs. Harry
Thaw had canceled her theatrical en
gagements nnd had come horo secretly
from Chicago, It was rumored she Would
bo a witness. Process servers, It was
said, were searching for her.
In thrco days 40 wltnumiui hnvn ..,.
thoy believed Thaw to bo rational. They
Included Canadian and Now Hampshire
business and professional men and three
women who met him after his cscapo, In
August, 1913. from Matteawan. All of
them said Thaw was always courteous
and gentlemanly In his conversation nnd
deportment, a keen sportsman, an expert
whist player, but a poor dancer. They
saw him dUplay no egoism and no fits
of temper and to oil of them ho appeared
a normal man.
To get In their expert testimony that
Thaw In sano, his lawyers on Monday will
cxumlno Dr. Charles P. Bancroft, of New
Hampshire, ono of tho alienists of the
Fedoral Sanity Commission that declared
Thaw sane. Dr. Percy Hlckllng, of Wash
ington, D. C, Dr. Charles K. Mills, of
tho University of Pennsylvania: Otmnrnl
Frank S. Stnreeter, a member ot tho New
Hampshire commission, nnd one other
member of that body, who declared Thaw
sane.
Thaw had CO witnesses summoned. Some
of them wero unablo to appear this week.
Ono or two of thorn will bo examined
on Monday.
Deputy Attorney General Becker, for
tho State, and Siegfried Hnrtman, for
Thaw, on Monday will go to Cambridge,
Mass., and tako tho testimony of Dr.
Charles W. Eliot, President Emeritus of
Harvard University, as to why Thaw was
asked to leave the university.
The State's caso, starting on Tuesday,
probably will conclude by tho last of
the week.

same old way,
"I represent a well-known photogra

photogiaphs to llfo slie, nnd If you- "
"Where's the picture I gave you to be
enlarged a year ago, and where's the 2
I gave you then?" Mrs. Detcher rapped
out. The man looked nn thnnirh I,. n,,i,i

"You didn't think I'd move, did you?"
she continued. "The last time you called
I was living at 22d and Master and you
thought 1M8 Ncwklrk street was now

ii'1' i oUJlh,0ltlng man In the shiny

run, but kept walking steadily away. Mrs.
Detcher put on a hat and followed him.
Sho racked him to 30th and Oxford

In Germany Is i fatfor of lmmedlftU

received here today by tho Central Fed

Leglen, head of tho German Federation
of Trade Unions, an ors-ahliatinn mm.
prising ft membership of 3.000,000 German
workers, and a Socialist member of the

says:
"Our fellow workers In tho United

waiting for peace, for the termination
of f this bloody struggle of hntlons. If
thla desire Is not expressed dally In our
papers and meetings, then It Is due to
the fact that we are In an extremely
peculiar and delicate position. The m.
;? ,;y ot thB ownlMil workers In QreU
Britain and France maintain, according
to what we loam from their own labor
papers, that Germany must be mashed. I
need not dwell here on hn ran.m.n.
the reallintlon of such a desire would
havo for tho future development of the
International labor movement. All our
effortB, made with n view to coming to
an understanding, have failed. Tho rep
resentatives of the German workers, on
August , 1914, have stated as follows In
