WITHOUT A HITCH
A Repetition of Entertainment
Was Successful.

A much larger audience, filing st.
Mary's Hall to oyerhowing, greeted
the children's play last night, than
even that of its first rendering on
Tuesday evening. Altogether the
music, the acting, in fact the whole
mise en- scene was an Improvement
The play was received with more
enthusiasm by the audience and the
youthful performers, having acquired
more confidence, were still more
natural and the whcie movement of
the play worked smoothly without a
hitch. Every shade of social life was
fully represented in the large assem-
bly,, ana the enjoyment afforded will
not allow this entertainment Of st.
Mary's school children to be soon for
gotten.
This play has also served to call at
tention to the excellent training given
by the Sisters of Notre Dame. To
many it would have seemed a hopeless
task to teach small children the
ehoruses and the various drills so adj
mirably performed The order to
which these Sisters belong is especial
ly devoted to teaching, and to it the
Catholic women of the country are
indebted for the erection of Trinity
College, situated in the District Of Co
Iumbia, near the Catholic University.
There is no college more elegantly
equipped for the higher education OF
women, and it is under the charge OF
the teaching Sisters Of Notre Dame.

PLANS WARON WHITE PLAGUE
1t Is Regarded as The Most I'm
tant Meeting Held In
This Country.

Washington, ID. c., May 1S-In
view of the estimate that four hundred
persons die from consumption every
day in the United States, it is not TO
be wondered that great public as well
as scientific interest attaches TO the
meeting begun here today by the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis. 1t is re-
garded as the most important meeting
of lung specialists ever held in this
country.

assembly room of the New Willard
Hotel this morning. Surgeon Gener-
al Wyman, of the United States Marine
Hospital, presided. Homer Folks. of
New York, discussed tuberculosis

Edward L. Davine. of the same city.
presented working programme for
national, state and local associations
for the prevention of the dread dis.
ease This afternoon was devoted TO
the sociological clinical and climatic
logical sections. This evening an i'm
portant address will be delivered by
DIR. Talcott Williams, of Philadelphia.
The convention will continue over
tomorrow. The papers and discussions
will treat of every phase of the dis
ease. Climate and its relation to the
cures of tuberculosis will most likely
provoke lively discussion. Efforts
to arrive at q uniform nomenclature
are also sure to be followed by much
talk. The present use of different
classifications of the various stages of
the disease and in some instances the
different interpretations of the same
classification render any comparison of
results obtained a difficult matter.
in organizing the campaign against
tuberculosis suggestion along these
line will be discussed and action taken
upon them.
An early and accurate diagnois,
compulsory notification of all cases,
the formation of anti tuberculosis
societies in every city and village in
the United States. if possible, to CO.
operate with the national association,
more hospitals and sanitariums for
both incipient and advanced cases, an
educational campaign by means of
pamphlets, newspaper articles and
also by having district nurses visit
patients in their homes, disinfection of
all rooms vacated by consumptiyes,
more free dispensaries where the poor
may obtain not only medical advice
