W. Reynolds, both members of the bank's board and its discount committee. The testimony came out in the trial in the court of United States District Judge Hollzer of Thomas A. Morrlssey and four former officials of the bank and one customer.

They are accused of misapplication of $528,400 of the bank's funds. It is charged that the notes, sixteen in number, were used to obtain money to provide funds for a pool to buy stock in the Pacific National Company, holding concern for the bank. Spear testified he had no knowledge of the issuance of the notes until they came up to be renewed. He also said he did not know Mrs. Rowena Williams, Mrs.

Merritt Ra-mey and Mrs. H. Schaefer, secretaries In the bank, who signed the notes. Similar testimony was given by Reynolds. Other witnesses were Herman R.

At the Downtown theater, good old-time vaudeville was on exhibi tion, featuring the Covan Family ,1 Mf it, .1 Hi if im m'Smm of dancers, and a Russian act, which embodied ballet, music and sword dances. "The Three Dynamos," Jack Lee, "Nelson and Knight" completed the bill.

"Expensive Women" Is a melodramatic piece which concerns Itself with the love life of a too-wealthy young lady (Dolores Cos-tello.) A good-natured rounder (Joe Donohue.) a musician (Warren Williams) and a "papa's boy" (Anthony Bushell) involve her in one situation after the other. In the end, the rounder is killed, the young man who obeys his father shows himself as too weak for consideration and the musician Is the lucky man to put a wedding ring on the young lady's finger. It's all pretty trite and dull despite the fact that it was obviously intended to be smart, sophisticated and daring. Don't be surprised, but the heroine and hero meet for the first time in a bathroom. True, it was a lovely, modern tiled affair and each had sought it as sanctuary from a falling-down drunken party.

But, there you are. A bathroom, of all things. Hobart Henley directed and among others takipg part are H. B.

3m 'V 1 The Theater this week has the honor to present Mr. "Whataman" Hudson on its stage and no matter what the quality of the surrounding bill, "Whataman" occasions the major portion of interest. Appearing suddenly and vaguely into Joe Laurie's act, Ma Kennedy's spouse conducts himself quietly and with Just a suggestion of belliger-ance. It Is obvious that had he not married Ma he would not, be enjoying such popularity as a thespian. His dramatic talents are eager and his personality not one to be remembered in after years.

His place in the Laurie act la no more apparent than his first name, which fell into limbo when Ma enthusiastically christened him "Whataman," but it is conducted with less "bad taste than might have been expected!
