Americans at Oxford.
From Harper's Weekly.

from harper Weehy.
1t will not be necessary, or even expe-
dent, for the Americans who go to OXFORD
as Rhodes scholars to employ press agents.
DR.. Parkin, the representative OF tho
Rhodes scholarships commission, came to
this country from oxford last month to ar
range for the preliminary examinations for
the scholarships, which are to be held at
various places on April 13. He says the
commissioners want the Rhodes scholars to
dawn upon the consciousness of oxford as
quietly and unostentatiously as possible. as
3ther students do. The more like violets
IN a messy bank the Rhodes men can open
the better the commissioners will be
pleased. They favor "a conspiracy of 81
,ence" about the Rhodes scholars, and DIR.
Parkin thinks the less said about them
until they have established a position at
Oxford the better for themselves.
The reasonableness of these suggestions
scholars will appreciate it. What freshmen
do in college depends very much on what
is done to them. 1t is not the fashion at
Oxford to play horse with newcomers, and
no doubt the Rhodes scholars will shape
their behavior according to the prevailing
standards. That the American newspapers
will not print wonder stories about them
is hardly to be hoped for, but the American
newspapers do not circulate extensively in
England, and what they print will hardly
disturb the peace of oxford. The oxford
system of small colleges will tend to break
up the mass of Rhodes scholars and dis
tribute them about in small groups. and
that is favorable to their assimilation.

number of new specialties have been ar
ranged for the coming season.
Mr.. Alexander Won Mitzel leading man
for Blanche Walsh. had his first chance for
recognition last season with the role of
Prince Dimitri in Resurrection" In W hich
he succeeded the late Joseph Haworth. He
has charming personality and a splendid
delivery. In the "Kreutzer Sonata" the
in Chicago in December, Mr.. Won Mitzel
will have the leading role, and he will make
his debut as leading man in New York in
January with the new play now being writ
ten for Miss Walsh by Clyde Fitch.
When "A Little of Everything was put
on at the New Amsterdam Aerial Theater
the wise men of Broadway all propn esied
that it would not go" because "ft was not
roof garden show" The capacity bust
ness recorded at the Aerial Theater for ten
weeks. since the opening of the season, is
very good argument that the wise men
were mistaken. In fact, "A Little Of Every
thing" has proved such big hit it will
be moved to the Broadway Theater Septem-
Der g. when The Rogers Brothers in
Paris" opens the season at the New Am
sterdam, and will later be seen in Boston
and Philadelphia.

The Rosy Cross in Tibet.
from the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
Any OF the British officers now on the
road to Lhasa who may happen to be Free
Masons have, perhaps. just an outside
chance of solving an interesting question.
For there are those who believe that the
high Rosicrucian adopts. having emigrated
to the east about the beginning of the sew
enteenth century. still inhabit the Tibetan
plateaus today, and some of the mysteries
of Freemasonry have been supposed to have
been acquired from the Roscrucians. II
they ever existed the Rosicrucians were a
secret society possessing the art of turning
baser metals into gold, and vowed them
selves to gratuitous healing of the sick.
Skeptics, however, maintain that there
never was such society. but that 1t was
invented as a ponderous joke by a learned
seventeenth century treatise writer.
