"The Sorceress"

At the Columbia Theater next Monday
evening Mr.. Charles Frohman will produce
for the first time in English anywhere 1.-The
Sorceress,' the new Sardou drama, in which
Mrs. Patrick Campbell will play the leading
part Of ZoraSa. 1t was in this role Sarah
Bernhardt achieved enc of her greatest
triumphs but two months ago in London.
Mrs. Campbell will remain here for one
week, after which the very handsome and
extensive production with more than eigh-
ty people, will return to New York, where
it will have a run at the Amsterdam Thea
ter. The story of 1.-The Sorceress' is of the
woman living in Spain, with whom Don
ried to Don Joana, the daughter of the gov
ernor, who has been a sufferer from con-
slant insomnia She is brought to Zoraya.
and the Moorish woman plying the girls
suffering at once causes relief by inducing
hypnotic sleep. For this she is brought be-
fore the inquisition and condemned to the
stake. In fact, she is about to be prema-
turely burned, but Joanna cannot be awak-
ened from her cataleptic coma, from which
it appears Zoraya alone can awaken her.
This is the condition which forces the in
QUESTION to iberate her, which they do,
but the pardon she has received is set at
naught by a turbulent mob, and she ends
by dying in the arms of Don Enrique.
Mr.. Frohman has surrounded Mrs. Camp
bell with an excellent support, of which
Guy Standing is the leading man.

THE SUN NOW SHINES THROUGH.
Glass Roof Over the City Post Office
Has Been Cleaned

Since the glass roof of the city post Office
has been cleaned there has been a saving
of no less than 40 electric lights every day.
Prior to the appointment of Mr.. Chance to
the chief clerkship of the Post Office De-
partment the great court of that building
was in a disgraceful condition of neglect
OF years covered the glass through which
the employees of the city post office were
supposed to get light by which to work,
and all day long electric lamps were
burned.
Conditions have changed and the clerks
down on the ground floor now realize that
they are in a world where the sun shines,
even If it is beyond two glass roofs. VS.
itcrs also see that there are human beings
down there, hundreds of them being Wis
ible from the galleries of the building.
Never before, unless it was when the build
ing was first erected, have these persons
been visible to the eye from above the
glass roof, the dirt obscuring them to the
extent of making it appear that the roof
was of some metal or wood.
In addition to this improvement the palms
and other tropical plants, worth in the ag-
gregate several thousands of dollars, and
which add to the architectural beauty of
the court, have been sprayed and other
wise cleaned until they now appear to the
eye as natural, living plants instead of
bronze limitations. as many persons have
hitherto supposed them to be. Prior to the
order for cleaning them and their environ
ment they were neglected until several or
them died and had to be carted away to the
dump. This has been changed. and here
after the plants and the walls of the court,
besides the glass work everywhere, will be
regularly cleaned by those who have been
employed for that purpose, but who have
not done the work with any regularity.

CHANGE MADE NECESSARY.
Proposed Bridge Across the Anacostia
River Relocated.

Owing to the relocation by the War De-
partment of the north bulkhead line on the
Anacostia river 1t has been found neces-
sary to locate the proposed new Anacostla
bridge across the Eastern branch OF the
Potomac river about 100 feet above the
present structure, in order to obtain a
practicable and desirable approach for the
new bridge.
1t is believed that the change in plans
made necessary by the change in location
of the bridge will occasion considerable de-
lay in the reconstruction of the Anacostia
bri 1ge. The title to the land upon which
the approaches Of the bridge will be built
is said to be in question, and this matter
will have to be settled before the engineers
of the District will feel safe in beginning
the construction of the bridge.
1t is believed that the United States has
good title to most of the land necessary for
the approach, but as to some of the land
the title seems to be clouded. 1t appears
that there is no record of the original divi-
sion of the square across which the APP
proach will be built. The west half OF the
square was vested in the Navy Yard Bridge
Company in 1920, and was conveyed to
Philip Otterback in 1910, with several reser-
vations. These reservations came into the
hands of the United States when it pur-
chased the bridge. Owing to the indefinite
description and the possible extension at
some time of the reservations to the east
half, the dispute about the ownership
arises. Heirs of Otterback had possession
of most of the square, and the title com
pany, realizing this, has respected the
rights in equity.
The unsatisfactory report of the title
company has led Mr.. Douglas. with the
approval of Col Biddle, Engineer Commits
sioner, to refer the matter to the corpora
ton counsel In making a statement for
the counsel Mr.. Douglas says that 1t APP
pears from the report of the title company
one portion of land desired, in the east or
the square, is not the property. of the
United States, although reasonable doubt
may be founded on the fact that the United
States built the wall around it.
Therefore he asks the counsel to ascertain
the ownership of the ground; If the engi-
neers can proceed with the construction OF
the bridge on the assumption that all the
property belongs to the United States; If
the engineers have a right to occupy prop
erty of the United States other than that
occupied by the existing structure without
further congressional action. and the meth
cd of procedure to acquire the necessary
land should 1t be impracticable to construct
the bridge upon property of uncertain own
ership without a proceeding in equity

Train Backs Into Bumper.

AS a train of large passenger coaches
used by the Southern railway on its Wash
ington-New Orleans line was being backed
upon siding in the railway yard at the
foot of 18th street southwest this morning
the cars struck the bumper at the end of the
siding with force enough to break it down.
The coach at the end of the train farthest
from the engine was forced from its trucks
and when stopped was hanging over the
trestle, which is elevated about five feet,
and was extending over the sidewalk on
18th street. The car does not seem to be
damaged but owing to the position in
which it is lying the railway men will have
a hard job to get it back on the rails.

Car Stops at Transfer Points.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Why IS 1t that the managers of the Co

employees to stop the cars sufficiently long
tc enable passengers TO transfer? Tuesday
morning, at or about o'clock, l got off
southbound 9th street at New York

bia line was then approaching the waiting
PLATFORM and while the car was slowed
up. but two or three young men got on
while the car was in motion. In fact, the
car moved so rapidly / was unable to OBJ
tain the number. Inquiry of the conductor
of the car following and telephone commu-
nication at the car barns has, as yet, failed
to reveal that number. Now we are de-
cidedly of the opinion that passengers and
patrons OF our street car lines, whether
citizens or strangers, have rights and prvi-
leges which street railway corporations
should be compelled to respect
