Citta Mort" D.Annunzio's fve-act play, for production by Madame Duse. The censor of plays is an autocrat be- fore whom all London managers bow in fear and trembling. Manuscripts must be submitted to nlm weeks before the date of a new production, and if he de- eides that play is immoral or for some other reason unfit to be seen on the stage his polite letter "regretting his in- ability to advise the Lord Chamberlain to issue the necessary license" decisive ly ends the matter. Curiously enough, the DAnnunzio play to which the cen- sor takes exception has never been challenged in any other country on the grounds of morality. The play has been performed in large American cities without the slightest objection on the part of the public The British censor has developed a violent dislike for all foreign plays, George Bernard Shaw describes the censor as "a gentleman who robs, insults and suppresses as ir- reslstibly as if he were the Car of Rus sia." The queerest thing about a the atrical license in London Is that it may be taken away at any moment. A re- cent instance of this was an Oriental melo-drama which was played for years. but which was suddenly sup pressed by the Lord Chamberlain mere ly because the Turkish embassy com- plained about it.-Kansas City Journal

To the Borders With Them
Servia's New King Gives Us Something
Pleasant to Think About.

Peter l kara-Georgovitch, the new
King of Servia, appears to be a cen
tury or two ahead of his fellow-coun-
trymen. While they were burning
fireworks and rejoicing over the over
throw of a dynasty by way of the
bullet and the ak, the man to whom
1t opened the way to a throne had the
grace to deplore the violent means by
which his predecessor and the men,
bers Of his immediate family were
hurried out of Office.
why could they not have taken
the King and Queen to the border
and warned them never to return ~
inquired King ara-Georgovitch. at
would have accomplished the same
end without bloodshed."
In making this suggestion, the new
King probably remembered that it
was by some such means that Servia
got rid of Milan, the father of the
unlamented Alexander. Milan was
glad to go at the end of the boot,
rather than at the point of a knife
or pistol. Once, when he would re-
turn, his sons emissaries met him at
the border and told him he could not
pass the line. He did return subse-
quently, with his sons permission.
but having made himself again un-
welcome, he was again assisted forth.
and this time, to make the effort final,
there was pretended attempt upon
his life, which was opera bouffe to
Servia but tragedy to Milan. He
made no attempt after that to return
to the country he had disgraced.
There is much to commend in this
suggestion Of Peter l. Possession is
nine points of the law in thrones as
well as smaller property. All his life
he had contended from the wrong
point of view. Alexander had pos
session. But Alexander outside of the
borders would have been as powerless
as Kara-Georgovitch had been. He
might have made some little trouble,
but none which a wise king could not
handle easily.

Made Good His Promise.

Governor Bailey, in self-defense,
promised to wed II the people OF the
State should honor him with their suf-
frage. They took him at his word. and
last week he fulfilled the promise. He
asserts, however, that the joke Is not
on himself but rather on the other fell
lows who exacted it OF him. for the rea-
son, he declares, that he had intended
to marry all the time, honestly; that
he was really engaged and had intended
to take a wife, whether he was chosen
governor or not. At Gny rate, the prom
ise was kept, Kansas at last has a mis-
tress to preside over the executive man
sion. the governor is happy. and so are
his people, notwithstanding their recent
disasters.

Governor Bailey a Benedict.

Gov. Willis J. Bailey, the chief execu-
tive OF Kansas, greatly to the satisfac-
ton OF his party, and in fact to the
whole people OF the Sunfiower State,
without respect to party, and doubtless
to his own great Joy. has fulfilled an
important ante-election pledge. Not all
statesmen. when elevated to office. are

Thereby hangs a story which has been
told before, but which will bear re-
peating in brief. because it is part Of
the history of the last gubernatorial
campaign In Kansas.
When the Republicans came to exam
inc and analyze their State ticket after
the convention last year. they discov-
cred. much to the surprise OF the heads
Of large families and the chagrin Of the
opponents OF race suicide, that they had
nominated a bachelor for governor and
bachelor for lieutenant governor. Kan
sas is famous for it's families and it's
homes, as we'll as its great acres Of
corn and wheat. its grasshoppers and its
isms. and hence the celibacy of their
candidates for governor and lieutenant
governor caused the Republicans much
concern. and the matter finally became
political issue.

known as the Eloi of the twentieth
century. 1t is certain that in some
parts of this country both the natural
resources and the character of the
people are fitted to the development
of peculiar varieties of manufacture.
Already in some Of these places the
people are engaged in the business
followed by their fathers and grand
fathers.
There has been a tendency of late
years to encourage young people to
educate themselves with a view of re-
filming and perfecting the work which
their ancestors did, rather than for
saking it for some clerical occupation,
and this is very good thing. The
son Of blacksmith may make a good
lawyer or physician, but he is likely
to be quite as useful and prosperous
as a master mechanic, particularly if
he inherits a talent for that sort of
work and does not show a genius for
law or medicine.
1t is to be hoped that, as the de-
inand for fine work in the crafts in
creases, there will be more artists
among the artisans and fewer half
educated people in the professions.
So long as the professional man can
make better living and win more
respect than the artisan there will be
a movement toward the colleges and
away from manual labor. But it is a
good deal better, more sensible, and
more honest to be a good carpenter
than an Indifferent lawyer.

A Pleasing Settlement.

This settlement of the differences be-
tween the Kaiser on the one hand and
the Crown Prince and Crown Princess Of
Sake Meiningens on the other. will give
satisfaction to all those who are in
terested in the welfare OF the house OF
Hohenzollern and OF the German en-
pire. There Is no doubt that in the re-
cent trouble between the Kaiser and the
Crown Prince of Sake Meiningen popular
sympathy throughout Germany was in
favor of the latter, who had taken such
a pronounced stand against the NAL
treatment OF private soldiers by their
officers, especially by the non-commis
stoned ones. No one is quicker than
the Kaiser to gauge popular feeling. and
like all impulsive men OF generous char
acter he is exceedingly ready to repair
wrongs that he has done and to atone
for mistakes which he has made. This
appointment OF the Crown Prince Of
SAKE Meiningen to one OF the very high
est commands of the army, which usual
ly carries with II the baton OF field mar
shall. thus marks the end of a coldness
which had existed for nearly ten years
past between the Emperor. his brother
in-law. and the most brilliant aud clever
OF all his sisters.
