THE LIE PASSED
A War of Words at the Board Of
Health Meeting

The health departments of the city and
county came together last evening with
a crash, and the county's veterinarian
called the city physician a liar. This
was all there was to it, for the "hoss'
doctor promptly apologized to the board
in his most Chesterfeldian style for the
language used. and while the. amende
honorable was not received with enthu-
siasm by DR.. Powers, medical ethics pre-
vailed, and active hostilities were avert

PLAYS AND PLAYERS
Ebell Club Discusses Modern Drama
and It's Representatives

Tho regular meeting Of the Ebell took
place Yesterday In the club rooms on
Flower street, the subject before the
association being an afternoon with the
nIavs. French and italian actors; Eng
lish and American.
The paper of the afternoon was pre-
sented by Miss Grace A. Dennen and was
entitled "The Modern Drama and It's
Repre santatives." Miss Dennen first
sketched the early rise of literary ex-
preston in poetry with nature as text
book. With civilization came the de-
velopme mt of prose, prose being the voice
of the intellect, poetry the song of the
SOUL The drama began close to the al
tar as part of the religious ceremonial;
in Egypt in the rites of the priesthood;
in Greece with the love for the beautiful
as divine instinct, while with the Ro-
mans, their battles and triumphs were
refought in their theaters.
In modern nations the rise of-the lite
rary forms, that were called into being
to fill the pressing needs and the deep
and Unborn craving of the human race
was noted. Then came the novel, with
its development of character and play
of passion, the tragedy, the comedy that
could be enjoyed by the fireside. and the
drama in the varying progress of the
centuries was neglected and allowed to
fall into decay.
The writer touched on American dra-
ma which in moment of hopeless dis
|couragements brought to the front two
or three men and women with firm be-
lief in its divine beauty, to whom the
stage was a shrine of art, men and
women such as Keene. Booth. Macready.
Henry Irving. Fanny Kemble. Mary
Anderson and Julia Marlowe.
Further was sketched the men in diff
|ferent nations who are recognized by
the world as bringing honor to their
chosen profession. Ibsen of Sweden.
Maeterlinck of Belgium, Sudermann OF
Germany. and Browning of England,
all possessed of genius and who stand
out from their contemporaries like bea-
con lights of promise for the revival Of
the future glory of the drama. Sardou
|of France, Is one of the great men on
the list. a prolific and painstaking
writer.
English playwrights and American
were touched with skill in a
brief summary of the writers OF
the century. A brilliant sketch
of Booth was given. of Irving, of Ellen
Terry, of Joseph jefferson, of Julia Mar
lowe, of Bernhard, and others.
A little discussion followed the paper
which centered upon the merit and pop
ularity of the vaudeville and farce
comedy. A delightful violin colo was
rendered by Earl Valentine entitled.
