Hail to the Chorus Girl!

Once again we have had Frenchman
among us taking notes, and, as usual.
he finds many things which do not seem
right to him according to Partisan stand
ards. There was time when Americans
were ridiculOusly sensitive to foreign
criticism. Some are still so, but most
of us in these enlightened times are less
likely to fly into temper over visit
or's comments than to sit down and
wonder whether they may not have
some reason in them. When the
visitor is q Frenchman and he talks
about our theatre, it is perhaps wise
for us to be particular in noting what he
Saws. for we are bound to concede that
In all that is theatrical the French excel
all the rest of the world, with the possible
exception of the German Emperor.
NJ. JULES HURET of the Figaro tells
his countrymen that our dramas are
childish and meaningless, that they
are generally vague operettas which
are simply excuses for much dancing.
This he holds is our great theatrical
achievement. Here, indeed, is food for
consideration A visitor from abroad
comes into the country which has pro-
duced Alabama and Arizona, y" Secret
Service" The Heart of Maryland
and The Girl Left Behind Me-" and
with the overwhelming force of simple
omission sweeps aside these plays which
we fondly believed were representative
of the life and genius of our people
Neither does this amiable critic of our
drama make mention Of those singular
and picturesque plays which one Of our
greatest living dramatists has built
around an automobile, darkened
drawing room, a steamship deck and
pile of trunks in a hallway. With
single glance of his eagle eve he over
looks the American romantic drama
and the American comedy of manners.
Thus is budding genius in young and
inexperienced country snubbed by the
contemplative critic of the Figaro.
Why? Because this master of his
craft has seen through the subtle yet
tenuous DISCUSSES of time and place.

SHOOTING QUAIL IN a PARK.
ShOtguns. Heard In Van C0rtlandt These
DAYS Aualnst State and CITY LAws

Persons in Van Cortlandt Park in tina
early morning have lately been startled
by the banging Of shotguns in the swamp
which divides the upper part Of the gols
links from the deer range
When they saw the herd Of Virginia
deer scampering up the hillside away from
the swamp they thought that some hunter
was out for venison. As a matter of fact
the hunters are after quail.
A commuter was on mis- way to catch a
train at the Mos olu station the other MON.
ing when he heard a shotgun in the woous
close by the road There was no smoke
to be seen and he decided that the shooter
was concealed In the woods and was using
smokele % powder,
As the commuter was about to board the
train he saw a man In a shooting Jacket
CARRYING a gun and a game bag emerge
from a clump of bushes. The man was
evidently having fine mornings sport"
as the brood OF young quail are not vet
able to do much flying and the parent birds
stick to the youngsters. The man wac
violating the city ordinances, which pro.
hibit the discharge of firearms within tho
city, and he was violating the Game lava
which protect quail at this time of the
year.
Quail had been scarce in that neighb >r-
hood up to three years ago. when they re-
turned and have been incrss sing in num-
bers since then. Quail are not the only
game in the park There are many wood
chucks and few foxes, both red and gray
rabbits chipn onks and squirrels

Crisis of the Smiths.

Know all SMITHS by these presents
that they are not doing their duty; that
they are falling behind in the race; that
they are on the path to race suicide.
Once we believed in the SMITHS. We
thought that the world was theirs. 1t
was a comfort to feel that wherever
you went the SMITHS were at the head
Of the poll. Voting lists were purple
with SMITHS. Directories sagged with
SMITHS. The country was safe and
happy under the protection OF the null
titudinous and consolidated SMITHS.
And now where are the SMITHS? The
manager of the Chicago Directory is a
SMITH. He is not the man to let a SMITH
escape from his agents Yet his figures
show that there are 5,9ss JoHNsoNs and
only 5,S74 SMITHS in Chicago
The SMITHS are running a close
second" writes an Inter Ocean reporter,
whose patronizng manner bewrays him
as a triumphant and sneering JOHNSON.
It has not been the habit OF the SMITHS
to be second. Have they lost their long
prominence? Must they decrease and
the JoHNsoNs increase ?
Where is MowBRAY? Where is PLAN
TAGENET? Nay, what is more and most
of all, where is SMITH? Will the SMITHS
yield without a struggle TO the JOHN
SONS? Call the clan together at Pea
pack. The SMITHS must meet the crisis
like SMITHS.

Disturbances I'm Cuba.

Some weeks ago THE Sun called at
tention to the existence Of a discon-
tented element in Cuba, and minated
the possibility of disorderly demon
STATIONS. In no case now at all probable,
II at all possible, will there occur any
thing which need cause any serious ap-
prehension. No uprising or revolt be-
yond the ready power Of the authorities
to suppress it need be expected.
The seat Of the trouble is the dissatis-
faction OF an element which exists in the
ranks OF the unpaid Army of Liberation.
This element protests against the delay
in the proposed payment. Five months
ago bill was passed and signed authoriz-
ing the President to effect an imme-
date loan of s9S ,OOO, 900, a portion Of
which was to be distributed in payment
for military services rendered during the
revolution. The e1-soldiers want their
money, and some Of them need it. 1t is
from among these that the threat OF
uprising is heard. The Administra-
ton is blamed for the delay. But the
great majority of the people Of the isl
and, both soldiery and citizens, are fully
aware that any extensive " uprising,
or even serious disturbance. would mean
the total prostration of all hope of eff
fecting the loan upon which the payment
of the army depends. An unstable
government, or government incapable
OF maintaining order, is not regarded
in financial circles as responsible
debtor The disaffected may indulge in
loud talk, and few of the most I'M
reasonable might even take to the
woods although that ia an extremely
improbable event.
Anything beyond the ready control
Of the authorities is as little likely to
occur in Cuba as it is in Massachusetts
or Indiana,
As for the two features which are
cited by alarmists as indicatinga serious
condition, no weight should be attached
TO them. An individual case Of murder,
apparently from motives Of robbery, is
not an alarming circumstance. Cuba
is no more immune from such crimes
than is any other land. The percentage
OF such crimes is even lower in Cuba
than IL is in most other countries. Such
an occurrence is always unfortunate,
but il is not, in this instance, attribut-

Recent Rumors About Mr.. Hays
Intentions.

The intelligent and patriotic press OF
the country receives with unmistakable
Joy the announcement that 1t Is not
Secretary HAYS purpose to retire from
the Cabinet. For example, the Spring.
field Republican remarks:
1T is TO be feared that President ROOSEVELT Is
gradually drifting into highly mistaken policy
regarding Manchuria and Russia. His petuant
performance in coupling the hishlncf petition
with alleged Russian duplicIty in the Far East
could not have received the sanction OF Secretary
HAY who must realize that the wishes OF the Ad-
mInistration as to Manchuria cannot easily be ad-
yanced by such open accusations against Power
like Russia"
The New York Times has this to say
Of the public confidence in MIR. HAY s
sagacity and self-control:
Especially with President Of the generous
impulslveness OF Mr. ROOSEVELT Is the balance
wheel provided by the Secretary OF State needful
almost to the point OF being Indispensable In
formed and considerable Americans have come to
regard the Secretary Of State as eminenty a safe
counsellor in the affairs OF this nation. They would
learn, not merely with rec :et but with ALARM that
he meant to retire IIom the Cabinet. They learn
with relief that he has no such intention"
We might multiply extracts showing
the high esteem in which the Secretary
of State is held by journals OF all shades
of political opinion, and the growing
conviction that the sane and safe quail
ties of his mind and temper were never
more useful at Washington than in the
present era Of what our neighbor the
Times euphemistically terms generous
impulsiveness.
One reason for speaking here Of the
recent rumor Of Mr.. HAYS purpose to
resign, now happily proven to be I'M
founded, is that the responsibility for
starting the same was apparently as
signed to this newspaper the other day
by the Evening Post, in manner denot-
ing a curdling of the intelectuals which
even the temperature Of Thursday last
did not fully explain
The facts about the matter are that the
rumor in question was first mentioned,
30 far as we are aware in the Washington
correspondence Of the New York Tribune
of July 8; that it was mentioned by the
Tribune at that time only to be dlscredited
and that up to the date OF the POST
article on the subject even the existence
of such report had not been referred
to by THE SUN in any way, either edi-
torially or in our news dispatches.
