ford on Friday for one performance has
enjoyed the reputation of being one OF the
mildest, and yet withal, one of the mos.
entertaining dramas on tn road While
the piece is one Of pathos and sympa-
thetic comedy, there is much good. clean
wholesome humor injected into the action
and no one part is overdone. The part
of the twin sisters. showing the extremes
of society, is a very difficult role 10 por
tray and one that requires an actress of
exceptional merit and ability, as the light
ming like changes from one to the other
in a moments notice is something phe-
nomenal and requires the closest attention
to detect whether it IS one or two women
playing the characters. The two children
who have the lines of the two little waits
play their parts with great deal Of nat
uralness, sympathy and feeling. Aside
from the strongly well told story is
wealth of scenery and electrical effects
that blend very nicely with the action Of
the piece. Ample opportunity is given
for some clever humorous dialogue and
some neat speciaities fit IN at the right

Objected to Scientists Flans.
DIR. Macdonald Wanted to Experiment OF
School Children and Professor
Harris Removed Him.

Washington, d. C.-Professor w. T.
Harris, the head of the United States
bureau of Education, has peculiar
controversy on his hands. 1t has grown
out OF his action in removing from the
bureau DR.. Arthur Macdonald, who
has for many years been conducting
some unique inquiries into the statis-
tics Of criminology.
In laboratory in the Department OF
Education Building. equipped with all
manner Of instruments for the study
OF psychology, Dr. Macdonald has
made large number of special invcs-
iSatiuns, which have been published
Ill reports from time to time OF late
IL has been his aim to apply some OF
the principles which have seemed TO
result from his inquiries to the exam
inaJion OF pupils in public schools. To
this course there has been violent OBJ
lection.
Or. Harris. discussing the matter
admitted that the reason for dropping
the criminologist from the Departm ont
or Education was n difference OF opin-
ion between himself and DR.. MacDon-
n'd. lie said he had recommended
thar the study of education as pre-
ventiVe of crime and pauperism Ge

reason for his action that. if Ger

VENEZUELA MUST SETTLE
Judgment For 100000 Given in
Favor Of Americans.
Tho Heirs OF Henry IsudIon Win Theii
Suit For Damages For tho AnnuI.
ment of Concession.

Caracas, Venezuela. The Supreme
Court has rendered its decision in the
suit brought by the heirs OF Henry
RudloT, an American citizen, against
the Venezuelan Government Tor DAM
ages for the 3nnuiment OF a concession
given in 1892 10 build n market in
Caracas. Judgment was given in favor
of RudlofT's heirs. admitting their
claim for the large amount OF $500. 900
TO be paid by the Venezuelan Govern
ment.
The United States Legation watched
the case very closely. Secretary Rus.
sell and Naval Attache Johnston at
tended the sessions of the court and
followed the arguments
The decision is interesting. inasmuch
as the German and British Legations
nave maintained that Justice for for
eiSners does not exist in Venezuela.
Washington, d. C.-The Rud,oT
claim was one OF the largest brought
by American citizens against the Ncne-
zuelau Government. and had it not
been settled would have come un foI.
adjudication before the mixed COM
mission provided 'for in the protocol
inst signed here by Secretary HAY ana
Mr. Bowen. The decision is source
OF intense satisfaction to the officials
here
The contract price OF the proposed
market was 100000. The claim was
for like amount. and the judgment
of the court shows that 1t was granted
In full
Considerable work had been done by
the American concessionaires toward
the construction of the proposed mar
ket when change OF administration
occurred in Venezuela. Then the con-
ceSSion to Rudloff was apnulled he
cause of the objection of the Govern
ment TO having such an establishment
controlled by foreigners. Probably not
more than half the amount of the claim
allowed had been expended when the
work on the market was stopped by
the Governments action.
