A realistic presentation of 1.-THE Passion
Play will be given at the Columbia The
ater the week beginning Monday evening
next, the seats for which will be put on
sale tomorrow morning. This event will
come somewhat in the nature of a sensa-
ton, religious and educational, to the peo-
pie of Washington. for the Passion Play
will be seen for the first time by the ALL
o. Lumiere's enlarged and perfected cine
natograph. 1t will be remembered that
Mr.. Stoddard's lecture on this play was by
far the most interesting and successful of
all his efforts. but the pictures then used
were still pictures. or photographs, while
the presentation at the Columbia will have
all the realism of the actual one the alb
sence of speech only serving to make IL all
the more impressive. For years attempts
have been made to get pictures of 1.-The
Passion Play by the aid of Lumiere's
wonder full invention. In fact, the consum-
nation Of such a plan was ever the hope
OF that genius. But all attempts met with
failure until DIR. w. w. Freeman who d.
reefs the present exhibition, went over a
year ago to Horitz, in the beautiful Bo-
hemian forest, called "the Austrian Ober-
Ammergau, where the play in all its de-
Vout simplicity has been presented for gen.
erations, and. by gaining the confidence
of the community, succeeded in having a
special open-air presentation given some
80. 600 photograph of which were taken by
Lumiere's machine. He succeeded also in
getting many interesting pictures of the
peasants at their daily avocations and
particularly of those humble men and wo-
men who enact the principal parts in the
Passion Play" The first presentation of
these pictures in any land was made at
Philadelphia two weeks ago, but It was
done in a somewhat quiet manner, so as to
perfect the machine and see that the films
were properly working. Nevertheless, it
attracted the attention Of the Philadelphia
newspapers and clergymen to a great ex-
tent, and the director is in possession of
many eulogistic Endorsements from the lat
ter. Prof. Ernest Lacy of Philadelphia. a
well-known scholar and lterateur, who has
written soma beautiful works in verse, will
come to Washington to deliver the lecture,
which is said to be of great interest to all
students Of the Bible. A pipe organ Is be-
ing put into the Columbia, and music Will
be rendered during the progress OF the pie
lures. There will be three afternoon pre-
ENTHUSIASTICALLY. Thursday and Satur-
day-the Tuesday one being mainly intend
ed for the Sunday schools. The first pre-
seEtation Monday evening will be attended
by a representative body of Washington
clergymen and other prominent people. who
are taking deep interest In the matter.

The man who conceived this curious
tombstone was F. II. Stafford. formerly
his wish to have the work with which he
was so long identified commemorated in
this way, and accordingly the monument
was erected soon after his death, in 1892
No finer site for such a memorial could
have been found in the whole cemetery, or.

many of the mills are located. Nearly
forty tall chimneys can be seen against the

now and then where the sunlight strikes
their gltstening panes. The majority of
the mills in the city. including the Stafford
mills. are built with slightly slopng roofs,
but one great structure seen from the
cemetery in the foreground shows the
sharp-peaked roof which had been chosen
as more ornamental for the monument.

the proud possessor of one-half shares in
