Look at the numerous Solomo y

nestle sp3ts aed legal scrapss Of q
second-class composer and a good
looking comic opera singer have again
and again bee1 magnife1 into abnor-
NAL importance and formed the SUBJ
ject for Unreasonable reams OF re-
portorial and editorial comment. This
is but one example of many that
might be offered, but it will suffice for
my purpose. The more "spicy" and
lcentious the matter, the more space
does it command. The stage lies very
close to the hearts of the people, and
the human side Of popular actors is
something that readers are always glad
to know about. But it does not follow
this reason that the loose acts of loose
men and women of whom there are
necessarily many in the profession
under existing couditions-should be
reiailed in prints that presumably
reach the eyes OF modest women aud
high. minded men.
The rio involved in the Cameron
case are a bad lot, evidently. 1t is
impossible to say whether husband,
wife or protector figures the most I'M
enviaby. All three have shown a
perfect Indifference TO public opinion
aud have dragged their disgusting
relations into the light without reluc'
lance.
The work Of emancipating the stsge
from the unjust hostility of traditional
prejudice and flimsy Puritanism has
been hindeIed by the flgraat immo-
rslity of some OF its people and the
scsndalous bent Of large proportion
OF the press. Unfortunately the en-
tire profession suffers scutely from
these ignominious and frequently re-
curing outbreak.
l. is parity the actors own fault. He
bugs this trite soph!sm that there are
as many black sheep in other folds as
in his own, snd, therefore, nothing
need be said or done. But he forgets,
in his supine method of looking at it.,
that when lawyer does anything I'M
professional he msy be thrown over
the bar; that a doctor who ofends
against the unwritten laws of his call
leg is expelled from the ranks Of regu-
lar practitioner, a1d that the clergy
man who is found guilty of conduct
unbecoming the cloth is promptly
fired out of the church. OF course the
actor belongs to no association tt at
can adopt its own measures and take
similar action. But he certainly can
assume firm stand against the people
that Disgrace his vocation. There are
enough spotless men and women on
the boards 10 drive from them the
backsliders by refusing to affiliate or
perform with them. The stage must
regulate its own morality and protect
itself from irfamy. The press end
public have refused to aid them in the
Ia:k, but it can be done without their
aid

Ell PAso, Tx, October 5.-NeWs
has been received here which con-
firms what has ben feared tor several
weeks that hostile Apaches are still
out, and the capture of Geronimo will
not end the Apache war. Lieut., Brit.
ton Davis, recently OF the United

Cerrolettos ranch in the State of

r1ided the ranch during his absence
and drove awsy twenty mules He
started in pursuit, and after following
the thieves for several days, under the
impression that they were Iustles,
came up with them only sixty miles
from this city, in the STATE Of Chihua-
hua. He was amazed TO fiud that
they were Apsches, ten in number.
A sharp battle ensusd, but none of
the lieutenant's party were seriously
hurt. The ApaChes have evidently
BEEN camping Tor months only ninety
miles from FL Paso. Lieut.. Davis says
that Old Mangus was the leader Of the
thieves. Mangus hrs been for twenty
years the terror OF the border He is re-
Garded as a far ADLER tacticisn than
Geronimo, and simbued with a deeper
hatred of the whites. Marquis snd
Geronimo are half brothers, both
being sons of the great Apache chief
Mangus Colorado, said to have been
the worst Indian ever known to early
white settlers. Lieut.. Davis says be
nur5ued ManpuS and His hand tn

whore he abandoned the trail, which
led in this direction-not, however,
until he had learned that ManRus had
been joire by the three bucks Of

tiles are by this time in New Mexico,
