COLUMBIA WROTH
AT 'SIR0NGHEARI'
Blossoms Football Play Deemed
|. an Insult to the New York
University. J1,z.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun SPECIAL Service'
New York, Feb. 13.-Columbia uni
versity students have begun to show OBJ
lection to "Strongheart,' a play In
which Robert Edeson is now appearing
here. The play pictures the Columbia
men in a false light, they say. One
scene represents a football game be-
tween Columbia university and another
team.
Thorne, a character in the play, is
represented as deliberately throwing
the game. He betrays Columbia sig
mails, misses his tackles, and allows
plays to 90 thru his position at tackle.
It IS against these incidents and to the
name 7sThorne' that Columbia men
make their protest.
The students say that there never
has been such an occurrence in Columbia
and that to portray his student life in
such a manner before the public, ignor-
ant of the facts, is an insult to the
university.
The objection to the use of the name
HThorne'' is made on the ground of its
likeness to Thorpe, the name of the cap
tain of the Columbia team in 1905, who
plays at tackle. Mr.. Thorpe has au-
thorized the statement that he resents
the slur on his name. The feeling
against De Mile, the author, is height
ened by the fact that he is a graduate
of Columbia. >
The management has declared that
the play was written three years ago
when Thorpe was not yet thought of fol
captain, and that there was no insult In
tended to Columbia. is

AMERICA TO TAKE
DIVORCE CENSUS
President S Recommendation of
Marriage Records Likely to
Bear Fruit in Congress.
BY w. w. Jermane.

Washington, Feb. 13.-Congress seems
disposed to comply with the urgent rec
pmmendation of the president, con-
tanned in his recent special message,
that the census bureau be directed to
gather, tabulate and publish statistics
relating to marriage and divorce. Sen
ator Quarles, from the committee on the
the original census act, which will carry
the executive recommendation into ef
feet. The inquiry will go back as far
as 1887.
A general impression prevails that
divorce has come to be one of the cry
ing evils. But there are no statistics
bearing on that question.
labor gathered statistics on marriage
and divorce for the twenty years be-.
tween 1866 and 1886, but nothing has
been done in that direction since. Re-
Gently strong petition praying that
statistics be gathered from 1886 to the
present time was presented to congress
by former Mayor Seth Low, Rev. Dr..
Morgan Dix, President Nicholas Muir
ray Butler, and other prominent citizens
OF New York. It is probable that the
president 8 special message was based
upon that petition. The petitioners
point out that many changes in the mar
riage and divorce laws have been made
since 1887, in many instances in the di-
rection of greater laxity, and that COM
missions on uniform legislation have
accomplished important results in about
thirty states. Other efforts at uni,
formlty are under way, and a wide in
terest is taken in this question thru
the, policy adopted in nearly all Of the
higher grade institutions Of learning
ALI of these forces have been put into
operation since the last compilation Of
| statistics. '~ s'~- 81
Director North of the census bureau,
says the entire male clerical force of
his office will be available 70 rfeld work
immediately after the completion of the
manufacturing census Of 1905. This
clerical fore ehas received training
which insures the highest degree of eff:
fciency and expedition, and it will
carry the compilation forward to com.
pletion in a short time.
1t is the plan Of Director North, in
the event that congress comply with the
president 8 request, to place a special
agent Of the census bureau in every
county in the United States. Colonel
Wright, commissioner of labor, made ar
attempt to collect divorce statistics by
mail, but was obliged to abandon it
as many clerks of court demanded ex
orbitant fees for making a transcript
of the records, and in other counties de
clined to furnish the information al
any price.

Raises Legal Question.

An interesting legal question has been
raised with regard to certain notes
now held by Judge Buckham, which
were discounted at the First National
bank.
It appears that about year ago Mr..
Clement approached Judge Buckham,
and representing to him that the bank
had several perfectly good notes that
for one reason or another it was not in a
position to carry induced him to pur-
chase them. Some of these notes were
made by depositors who recently in ex-
pectation Of their maturing had been &C
cumulating money with which to pay
them and putting it in the bank, sup
posing it still held them.
When the bank suspended the note
makers approached the receiver with the
| request that their deposits be regarded
as an offset against their notes and then
learned for the first time that the notes
had been disposed Of, and that deposits
made could not apply upon them.
Is Director an Innocent Holder?
| The paper is, of course, negotiable,
and the bank had an undoubted right
to sell it, and it is not questioned that
it would be collectable in the hands of a
third person not connected with the
bank. But whether director under
the circumstances can be considered an
innocent holder is the question that is
now raised. It is argued that the mere
fact that the president Of the bank at
tempted to dispose of paper held by it
and which was it's principal source Of
| income should have been warning to
the director and that it should at least
have sufficiently aroused his suspicious
| to induce him to make such an investi-
cation as could not have failed to re-
veal the fact that the bank was in des-
perate straits.
It is further argued that where a di-
rector fails to direct the affairs of the
bank he should not be permitted to
profit from his own negligence, and that
Notwithstanding the fact that Judge
Buckham paid the full value Of the
notes they must still be held to be in
possession of the bank at least to such
an extent that any deposits held by the
4 bank must be regarded as an offset to
them.
Holding this view it is stated that
makers Of notes now in the hands of
Judge Buckham will refuse to pay them
unless they are credited on them with
the amount of their deposits IN the sus'
pended bank.
i Resigns Trusteeship.
Mr.. Clement has resigned the trustee,

! At the suggestion Of the president of
the First National ban of Minneapolis
which holds the company's bonds to the
par value Of $4,000, the Minnesota
Loan g. Trust company has been named
