The coming of Herman, the Great,
at the Gem Theatre all during the
week of May 8?i, will certainly be
a drawing card judging from press
I comments Where he haa been play
1 ing.
He Is an artist of his profession
J-and always pleases his audience, his
changes only requiring three seconds
which almost seem Impossible, bpt
to be convinced ybu will have to see
him. He entertains yon from 80. to
1 40 minutes and gives a complete
change every night.
No doubt but what many theatre
goers of Washington has paid $1.60
for a seat to see him, but Is brought
here at the extreme low prices of
10 and 10 cent* for the entire week.

Abba ten aggio, upon whose re vela-]
thlons the state has built ita c
against the Camorra, was called to
the witness stand today to verbally
confirm the written confession made
for the Carabineers after he had been
tricked Into damaging admlsaions by
the police spy. Marshal Captaautl.
The informer stood the supreme
test of his courage well, repeating
his story coolly and at times elo
quently, while he was 'assailed with
the gieat steel cage.
Brery statement he made was de
nied in chorus and when he conclud
ed Enrico Alfano, the" alleged head
of the Camorra, rose and shouted:
Abbatemagglo deserves thlrty|
years In prison."
The Informer began with the state- 1
ment that the Camorra existed in i
well organised form both outside and
inside the prisons of Italy. The first
question put the man sentened to Im
prisonment when he enters the pris
on was, he said, whether he was Ca
morrlst and if so whether he was a
full fledfied Camorrlst or a Picclotti,
the latter being one who has Taken
the final degree In the criminal so
ciety.
Each Camorrlat has under him 48
Plcclottls or recruits who are on pro
bation and who may become Camor
rlBts proper only when they have
proven their ablltty to commit crime
without detection. The witness said
that the rank or the prison of the so
soclety was asked in order that the
Camorrlsta and the Plcclottls might
be grouped separately and communi
cation between the older members
and the /^spiring candidates be avold
od. !
Abbatemagglo's testimony was con
ntantly interrupted by protestn from
the ' prisoners, accompanied by ugly
epithets and Imprecations.
George B. McClellan, former May
or of New York, occupied a seat in
the space set apart for the lawyers,
where the prisoners stared at him
until the proceedings opened. Mr.
McClellan has taken much interest
in the case.
