10 que hace al mecanismo de la idea
en- general; porque despues tenemos
que hasta Ell Is afro anade impresiones
fuertes para completar Ell estruendo Y

con ell drama Resurrecci6n, sacado de
La misma novela del Condo Tolstoi,
en- que la notable actriz Blanche

tipo de esa bestia soez que es la Mas
Zoua, Y Ell discreto y concienzudo actor

que existe sobre la escena americana

la reprise del drama doloroso que Ell
genio del novelista russo ha sabido
combin ar, tiene sabor de oportunidad
en- estos instantes en- que ell pueblo ru-
so, 6 Ell alma rusa, cts you please, pasa
Dor una de las crisis mas supremas de
su historic.
Generalmente, la empresa de adap-
tar una nOvela al teatro, es mediocre
Y vana. Cuanto mas vigorosa sea la
novela, mas inferior p~arecera Ia adap-
taci6n. Los grandes maestros de Ia
nOvela 10 saben tan perfectamente, que
siempre consideran o sospecha la
transposici6n de sus ohras q la esce-
ma.
Los americanoa 2dmiran q TOlstOi

matizado, porque dos artistas como

Naturalmente que SO va mejor pre-
parade al teatro cuando Sc conoce d
fondo Ia obra que Sc representa-, y en-
este punto ell publico americana no SO
descuida. Habra mucho de pose 6 de
snobisnoo, pero Ell resultado es efcaz y
sobre TODD practice.
Tiene ell drama Resurreccion una
sublime sencillez, y como novela me
Ia parecido superior a las principles

Under the supervision OF the customs
authorities representing China, the Askold
and Grozovoi will go out OF commission
before Sunday. and as soon as they are
patched up they will take their places
alongside the gunboat Madjur. which was
dismantled last March.
Emperor Nicholas sent a message to the
crews OF the Askold and Grozovoi con-
graduating them for saving the vessels
and conveying words OF hope.
There is general satisfaction here over
the outcome OF the matters. II is under
stood that the Japanese feet will remain
until the Russian vessels are completely
disarmed.
NO SURPRISE FELT.
st. Petersburg, Aug 25. 2:10 z. M.-The
announcement that the Askold and Gro
zovoi had disarmed at Shanghai came as
no surprise here as the responsible au-
thorities decided a week ago. as stated in
the Associated Press dispatches, TO follow
this course.
Russia was only waiting for definite
agreement between China and japan.
which would insure the protection OF the
ships against a repetition OF the Ryeshl-

After the flags OF the Askold and Gro
zovoi had been hauled down their guns
were d1smantled.

In the course OF his article Mr.. Parker
says:
"A man who would succeed in business
should begin at the bottom and work to-
ward the top, which he may reach II he
masters every detail and proves himself
more sklful than those who are vying
with him in the struggle for its ultimate
control. The same rule applies in politics.
There are exceptions to the rule. but they
tend 10 prove II. as exceptions usually do.
Young men. therefore, should be content
TO begin at the foot of the political lad
der.
Wherever your home may be, there
you will find upon investigation. a chance
for helpfulness. In nearly every town.
county and city government the expenses
are rapidly increasing.
Although for considerable portions OF
the increase. corresponding benefits are
being received. the tendency TO waste
funds and extravaganza Is not only
marked, but II already threatens our
municipalities I'm the not far distant flu
ture, with a burden that will be borne
with exceeding difficulty This is due
largely to the fact that men OF education,
supplemented by professional and busi-
ness training. are unwilling to contribute
as did their fathers in the past, some por-
ton of their time and ability toward the
duties OF local government
'The result naturally is that too many
men with but little at stake and without
any ambition to be useful 10 the com
munity in which they live. seek and OBJ
tain the real executive offices. as well as
those OF legislative character. with most
unfortunate results.
This Is to be seen on every hand. and
az a rule IL IL not the fault OF the local
party leaders. who are too frequent un-
Justify censured and held responsible for
such conditions"
Contrasting these statements with con-
ditions In England, Judge Parker declares
that a different view is held there Of the
duty OF capable men of affairs in respect
TO the administration OF the systems.
