was said an order had gone forth in the
Tribune office requiring It's dramatic
critic, William Winter, to attend all dra-
ma,ic performances writing his criticisms
after he had seen them, It has been
charged that Mr.. Winter frequently writes
his criticisms at his home on Staten Is
land without even taking the trouble of
going to the theatre. and the publicity
given to this fact by Henry. Miller IN his
speech at the Hudson Theatre recently
has caused the edict to go forth. with the
result that Mr., Winter will have to spend
his nights in New York

but It did not avail. Miss Anderson said
that It was with a deep sense Of her UNI
worthiness OF the honor bestowed upon
her by so many OF Americas most dis
tinguished people. both In the religious
and secular worlds, and with an intense
feeling OF gratitude for the kind thoughts
and words. that she was compelled by
conviction not to deviate from her reso-
luton made fifteen years ago not again
to enter into the rush and excitement
of public life. and that beyond few
local performances for the poor, without
remuneration to herself, she never con-
sidered the possibility of a professional
return to the stage.

taken the Bible and eventually reform

Word building, word guessing,

they wish and need something in the

The outer or secondary bow is much
fainter in color, and the red band Is

in the primary bow the suns rays are
only reflected once, while in the sec

which makes them fainter in color and
turns them upside down. In one rain

They have a curious way OF utilizing
wives and daughters in some parts OF

these members of his esta ablshment in
pawn, and his creditor detains them
until the debt is discharged. The Gus
tom varies III different localities In
