Duncan published card denouncing
the editor of the Transcript as corrupt
by nature, a coward by instinct, mall
cious by disappointment. and a liar in
general" The editor of the Press has
had occasion to differ with Editor
Sam Roberts. and in his paper
today says: "Were the editor of
the Leader capable Of feeling the
indignity and disgrace OF slap in the
face, kick or public cowhiding, there
would be some satisfaction in bringing
him to a personal settlement. But IN
the light of past events, which have
shown him to be without spark of
self-respect or manhood, and that he
persistently seeks refuge behind the
cowardly policy of non-resistance, any
gentleman would scorn to dirty his shoe
by bringing it in contact with such

opportunity, however, may be given the
Leader editor to substantiate some of
his charges against Mayor Duncan"

Tempest combines a voice of eXtraordi-
nary pitch and sweetness with the dra-
matte feryor of an emotional actress to
greater degree, probably, than any
other prima donna now UPON the Eng

will be surprise TO thousands of her
admirers whom she has impressed as
the personification of supreme conf

1.-The sensation is one of utter col
lapse" she said, lit is truly an awful
feeling, and is nearer to seasickness
than anything else l know Of. Players
with highly nervous organization are
sure to be attacked by it when APP
preaching the climax of all important
part, or when appearing for the first
time in new play. Those playing
emotional roles are more susceptible to
stage fright than others, because the
individual capable of portraying those
parts successfully is necessarily pos
sessed of highly nervous and impress
sionable temperament.
I'm one respect highly developed
nervous organization is indispensable
to success, as without it proper con-
ception and feeling of the part to be
acted are impossible. You know an
actress must not only understand her
part, but be SO absorbed in it that she
