torial institution.
Last Tuesday, Mr.. Harding, of San
Francisco. gave an instructive lecture
al assembly hour on our National
House of Representatives" He vivid
ly pictured the troubles and disap-
pointments of a newly elected member
who tried to gain fame by introducing
and securing the passage of pet bills.
He explained why oratory and debate
are not used in the house; why the
work is practically done by the var
ious committees, the vast influence of
the speaker and the chairmen on the
various committees and the necessity
of the present gag" rules to enable
the house to do business. He also
pointed out some characteristic differ
ences between the house of represen-
tatives and the house of commons.

REFORMING PENSION SERVICE.

Eugene f. Ware, commissioner of
pensions, in line with his policy to re-
organize the force of employees at the
pension bureau for more effective SER
vice, has reduced the salaries of seven
teen aged and incompetent clerks. The
clerks received notices of the commits
sioner's action last Saturday when
they were handed reappointments to
places with duties not exacting and
with salaries ranging from 5000 to $500
a year less than those they had been
drawing. The reduced clerks at first
were inclined to appeal to members
and senators to have them reinstated,
but an investigation convinced them
that the commissioner would not be
moved by political influence. Then
they got together in the corridors and
discussed their grievances. Some of
them ave way under their misfortune
and cried. Commissioner Ware told
| why he has reduced the salaries of the
aged clerks.
The pension bureau is flied with a
lot of old and disabled men," Mr.. Ware
said, whose usefulness passed away
long ago. They are not capable of per-
forming their duties and are not earn
ing the high salaries paid them. 1t was
realized that something must be done,
and 1t was decided to cut their salaries
and give them less trying and less diff
cult work. There are many aged clerks
in the bureau disabled from one cause
or another who should stop work and
try to regain their health. l feel sorry
for them. They are old men, sick and
worn out. At the same time they can
not do the work they are called upon
to perform, and giving them less ex
acting labor was the best thing to be
done under the circumstances"
The clerks had ample notice of the
commissioners intentions to reorgan
lie the pension bureau, as he stated
in his annual report hat as many Of
the employees were unable t. perform
the work required of them, he though,
the time had come for the establish
ment of a civil pension list. In this
report MIR. Ware declared that 100
young men could do the work it takes
500 old and ~incapacitated clerks to do

all of his other plays and novels. The
scene of the play is laid in England about
the time of the Napoleonic wars.

ashore Acres"

In the continued success OF James A.
Herne's beautiful play, ''Shore Acres.
there is something splendidIy encourag-
ing to optimists. This is the tenth con-
secutive season for this ideal comedy
drama of American home life, and the
theatregoing public does not seem to tire
of its manifold beauties. Arrangements
have been made for fine scenic produc-
ton of '.Shore Acres at the Academy Of
Music this week.
Those who have seen this delightful
prose idyl agree that its story is an ex-
quisite one; that it is descriptive of life
sweet and self-sacrifcing and of hearts
tender and true.
Shore Acres" must be seen many
times to fully realize its diversified beau
ties. There has been no attempt to point
moral, yet one cannot help feeling bet

Those who know Miss Adams personal
ly aver that she has we'll defined and in
teresting opinions on all subjects that in
terest adults. Yet by some strange mis-
chance her personal opinions on public
and ethical questions, unlike those of
most other actors and actresses, never
find their way into the public prints.
Strong common sense is one of Miss
Adams most distinctive attributes. The
envious will doubtless say that it is be-
cause she is handled by an astute man
ager in this way, yet 1t is now some years
since she made her first real success as
a pretty young school girl in Hoyt's "a
Midnight Bell" which was quickly fol-
lowed by other artistic triumphs. She
was regarded as very charming ingenue
when she made her earliest hit, and she
was then at liberty to do and say what
ever she pleased, but she failed again,
strange to say, TO develop into muchly
photographed and sensationally discussed
actress.
Miss Adams always has been and con-

public only the finest manifestations Of
