    "BIRD" MILLMAN WHO DOES
TANGO ON WIRE IN THE CIRCUS
Everybody is not doing It.
There is at last one new dance which
runs no chance of being popularized to
«lenth. Bird Millman, who is, take it
from the Barnum and Bailey program,
which will exhibit here Thursday, May
•>. "the dainty, daring queen of the
wire," invented it. She calls it the
aerial tango, and has not been obliged
to seek a patent to keep it in her own
private possession. If your infant son
and daughter start right away they
may learn it By the time they are
eighteen or twenty. That Is the period
it took Miss Millman to accomplish It.
"I began to learn my act when 1 was
Ave years old. 1 have been learning I
ever since, f'il keep on learning until
J get too old to work. There Is no
end of the possibilities of the wire. 1
love it. and yet I am afraid of it. Tt
Is treacherous, fascinating, almost
fl live. When you have it under your
feet you feel it is a thinking animal,
Instead of a strand of steel. Some days
It is docile, and you have no trouble.

were trying to throw you."
The air of the dressing tent was
redolent with the reek of the circus.
Outside one could hear the blare of
the music and the clack of the wooden
shoes which aerial acrobats use to pro
tect their glove-like slippers from the
tanbark.
"I love the circus," said the Queen
of the Wire. "I can't explain why. It
was born in me, 1 guess. Both my
father and mother were acrobats be
fore me. I was in vaudeville for a
time, but I gave it up to come back to
the big top. 1 don't feel at home any
where else. In vaudeville there are
always squabbles and jealousies. Here
we are like one big family. Xo. I don't
want to leave the life. I haven't any
dream of a little home of mv own. 1
want to stay with the big show. 1
won't have to worry about old age,
anyhow. Pew of us live long enough
to retire on that account."
Legislative News
CHILD LABOR BILL
IS UP TONIGHT
Men in Charge Think That the
Proposed Amendments Will Be
Defeated in Senate
The Senate will hold the big end of
the interest in legislative matters this
week, although there will lie consid
erable attention given to the general
appropriation bill. The child labor bill
will be on third reading to-night and
men who are favorable to the measure
say that the proposed amendments will
fall. The bill, it Is predicted, will pass
the Senate as it left the House and
will be signed with little delay.
Workmen's compensation will be
taken up by the Governor and most of
the senators In informal conference
to-morrow afternoon and action on
the measures Is expected. If there is
.no disagreement on these bills the
Legislature will get away May 13, ac
cording to people at the Capitol.
The full crew repealer will also be
j acted upon by. the Senate committee
I again. Decision on the election legis
| latioOs also expected during the week.
[ Practically all of the important bills
I making vital changes in the election
I laws of the State, including the hills to
I prevent fusion after the primaries, to
place the Republican party at the
head of the ticket and to repeal the.
nonpartisan act so far as it relates to
.ludges. have passed the Senate and
arc slumbering in the House elections
committee until the leaders reach an
agreement on their disposition.
The great bulk of the appropriation
bills are now well on their way. With
exception of about fort'-, all of the
House appropriation bills have passed
i the lower branch and most of the ap-
I propriation measures originating in the
j Senate that have been reported out
are in the House committee. Their
; fin«l disposal Is a matter of a week
and as soon as the final day of the
i General Assembly is fixed thev will be
I started on the way to the Governor.
Meanwhile the chairmen of the Sen
ate and House appropriations com
mittees are working on the general
appropriation bill.
In both branches committees will
clean up' this week. Adjournment
is believed to be a matter of only a
fortnight or so and efforts to advance
bills will be made in both branches
Numerous important bills in addition
lo the labor and compensation meas
ures are on the Senate third reading
calendar for to-morrow night. Among
the thirty bils on this stage are the
uniform cold storage measure, bor

BOROUGH CODE IS
CHANGED ABOUT
Important Measure Will Likely Be
Passed Finally by the Senate
This Evening
The Senate has made a number of
amendments In the proposed new code
of laws governing the 900 boroughs in
Pennsylvania. The code, which was
prepared by the Legislative Reference
Bureau, passed the House some time
ago, and will be up for final passage
in the Senate this evening.
One Senate amendment prohibits a
borough putting a street apross a rail
road at grade without the consent of
the Public Service Commission. The
bill originally gave the Common Pleas
Courts Jurisdiction as to this. High
ways below or above grade at rail-
MAY 3, 1915.
road crossings must be constructed
according to plans approved Toy the
Public Service Commission, and com
pensation for damages to adjacent
property are to be ascertained, fixed
and paid as prescribed in the public
service law.
The code creates the office of bor
ough controller for such boroughs as
desire to have such an officer, and a
Senate amendment provides that in
such event the Quarter Sessions Court
shall appoint the controller to serve
until the January following the next
municipal election. Other Senate
amendments are:
Providing that borough solicitors
whose terms expire at any time be
tween January, .1916, and January,
1918, shall hold office until the latter
date.
Regulating the manner in which
a borough may appropriate property
heretofore dedicated to public or
other use and no longer used for the
purpose In the original grant, and
lands whose title is defective, dis
puted or doubtful.
Fixing the working time of borough
auditors at sight hours per day.
Fewer Sheep Are
Killed by Dogs
A decrease of over 1,300 In the
number of sheep killed by dogs and
also of the number Injured is reported
by the State Bureau of Agricultural
Statistics are the result of its efforts
to get accurate Information as to tho
amount of damage done to the flocks
of the State in Ihe last year as com
pared with 1913. The report Is made
up from returns by county commis
sioners to L. H. Wible, chief of the
bureau.
During 1914 there were 5,067 sheep
killed and 3,733 Injured as against 6,-
393 killed and 4,845 Injured In the
previous year. L,ast year counties paid
145,673.10 for sheep killed, an ave
rage price of $7.23 per sheep against
$54,322.70 the year before when tho
average was 16.35 per sheep.
The decrease is attributed to the ef
forts made to check the ravages of
dogs as 2,026 were killed last year In
direction of authorities outside of cities
as compfored with 1,419 killed the pre
vious year. The total dog tax col
lected in boroughs and townhhips was
1146,749.18 lart year as compared with
$145,706.01 the previous year.
