Undaunted by the verdict Of other
communities as to the immortality of
Alphonse Daudet's "Sapho" In It's
dramatic form, the citizens Of ono
western town evidently adhere to the
theory that seeing is believing. The
chief Of police and his captains, the
police Judge, the mayor and divers
members Of the W. c. T. U. occupied
front seats at "Sapho" performance
in the strict line Of duty, OF course.
This method Of censorizing alleged i'm
moral plays may be destined to become
extremely popular. 1t smacks 4 good
deal of the Parkhurst method Of pay
ing midnight visits to the Bowery
hootchy-kootchy establishments in
the interest of purity. In other words,
1t gives pious people chance to sam
pie forbidden fruit under the pretext
OF caring for public morals, and that Is
temptation difficult to resist.

The curious grammatical error-al-

1t appears in the recently negotiated

Britain for the construction and con-
troll OF the Isthmian canal. The text
OF that treaty provides that ratifica-
hons OF it shall be exchanged within
six months of the date hereof. or earlier
II posstble!" And the treaty was writ
ten and carefully revised and re-re-
vised by one Of the most accomplished
literary men Of the age. It is perhaps
because the slip Is so obvious that it
passed notice.
