THE EMBASSY BALL. !
Lawrence Dorsey to Appear at

The Embassy Ball, written by
Augustus Thomas, the author of !" The
Earl of Pawtucket. DE Iancy,

Quiet, Alabama, Arizona,
In Mizzouran and other plays, with
Lawrence Dorsey as the star. viii be
seen in Baltimore at the Academy or
Music, next week beginning Monday.
January %. under the direction or
Daniel Frohman.
AT the request of Mr.. Frohman Mr..
Thomas wrote this ssplay especially for
Mr.. Dorsey and has given him one
of the best characters, it is said, IN
which he has ever been seen since he
has been appearing in the United
States. The scenes of THE Embassy
BALI are all located in Washington
and each are symbolic of social and
political life at the Capital of the
Nation. Mr. Thomas has written
some of the most delightful comedies
ever brought forth by an American
author aud in 1.-The Embassy Ball
it is stated he has contributed TO the
stage the best and most pleasing COM
edy t.at has ever emenated from his
fertile mind.
Mr.. Dorsey, though an English
man by birth, has been for the past
six or seven years identified with the
American stage and has made for him
self most excellent reputation as an
actor of great versatility. It has
proved to be the best comedy of the
present season. There Will be but one
matinee-that on Saturday.

TO CALL A HALT.
Or The Navy Expenses Wal Alb
Sorb Treasury.

Whether the hazing at the Naval
Academy has had anything TO do with
giving rise in Congress TO a feeling of
needed retrenchment in military mat
tiers or not. is question, but certain
it is that the naval appropriation is to
be cut down this year.
Most of tho leading men in Congress
assert that the time has come for the
law makers TO call halt on the navy.
The House Committee on Appropria-
tions last week refused to give the
Bureau of Steam Engineering of the
navy a deficiency appropriation of APP
proximately 81 600, 600 for the current
year. and because Of this action it has
become necessary for Secretary Bona
parte TO order the dismissal of about A
per cent. OF the civil employees under
the bureau of Steam Engineering and
large number of employees in the bu.
reaus OF construction. ordnance and
equipment and in ten navy yards.
This order may stop work on over
hauling the armored cruiser New York,
the cruiser Columbia and the battle
ship Indiana. Naval men regard the
situation as serious. but the Congress
sional committees are determined tc
maintain their attitude of retIench.
ment. ONLY few DAYS ago Repre-.
sentative Butler, of Pennsylvania, a
member or the House Committee on
Naval Affairs. declared:
Now is the time TO halt. If the
navy-yard officials ara given their
heads they Will absorb the American

In Baltimore.

Mr.. II. f Bradley, a farmer. came
TO town from Anne Arundel county on
Wednesday afternoon, says the Balti-
more News, TO take into his custody a
small brown COW. alleged to be sober.
industrious and Of good disposition.
When the COW stepped from the water
wagon at Pier ,, Light street. she
looked as meek rs the baby calf that
toddled by her side.
Preparations were at once begun for
the removal of the Eastern Sho'
moo TO Ann RanneI. - but as she
was being led from the wharf she
sprinted, leaving her calf behind. and
darted down Light street, displaying
her horns 20 the horses and temporar.
lily paralyZing business.
Two of ED" Linthicum's COW
punchers saw the happening, and an
opportunity too earn a little extra
money. Down the street went the
COW, darting in through alleys and
side streets, with her pursuers close
upon her heels. Finally her finish
came. She took q green grocer's dis.
play for free lunch, got mixed ar
with several vineger barrels in front
OF the establishment, and was lassoed
and led back to her family.

Final Test of Christianity.

Disintegration of the common con-
science is the crying evil of the age,
and its Indignation the chief moral de-
mand, according to the Rev. Charles d.
Williams, dean of Trinity cathedral.
Cleveland. writing in the December
McCMres on the final test of Chris
tianity. Strangely in line with the ar
ticle quoted last week by the editor
of HILBERT Journal Mr.. Williams says:
we are very much like boy who has
outgrown his clothes. The religion of
the past spoke it's message of right
eousness chiefly to the individual, ana
especially in terms of ecclesiastical
propreties and the minor moralities Of
personal behavior But there has come
to the modern world sudden and vast
expansion of commercial and political
development.
There have been some appalling
revelations made in the last few years
both in our periodical and also our
more permanent literature: exposures
of commercial and political iniquity
and civic unrighteousness. There are
the stories of some of our gigantic
business enterprises which have climb
ed to dizzy heights by unprecedented
financial power. And they have done it
by deliberate policies Of commercial
assassination, by ruthlessly crowding
to the wall. both by fair means and
oftener by foul. all honest competitors.
And yet who are they who do these
things? They are often gentlemen who
are scrupulously correct in their per-
sonal behavior. AS to the minor NOR
ais they are temperate, sober, and
chaste. They are good husbands. kind
fathers. Their home life is above re-
proach. They are often kind and con-
siderate neigh'bors. They pay their
debts and fulfill their personal obliga-
tons to their friends. They scorn lie
where no business interest is at stake.
They are interested actively in all civic
improvements of material sort. They
give munificentiy to all movements for
human betterment that do not inter-
fere with their commercial schemes,
They found hospitals, schools and Soc
ial settlements. They build Libraries
and universities. They are even ortho-
dox. pious and devoted in their religi-
Gus life. They go to church regularly.

eco to the church and say: so and
so is suspiciously heretical; he is not
sound in his doctrines; he does not OBJ
serve the propreties of Worship; he
does not even go to church; above ali
he does not support the ecclesiastical
and religious work., and
they are inclined to excommunicate
him. But tell the church: so and so
has made his vast wealth by fagrantly-
dishonest and oppressive methods anjN
the church will shrug it's shoulders in
nine cases out of ten, saying: That
is secular affair. with which we as
religious or Christian people, have no
concern. We are interested in how the
rich man spends his money, not in how
he makes it.

of the great New York banker who in
sists that this country will be plunged
into such panic as was never before
known if we don't provide for more
elastic currency. Most of us expect
reaction in business to come sooner
or later. Present speed In commerce
and production can not be accelerated
Indefinitely or the whole system will
slip an eccentric and fly into space But
when the reaction does come it will not
be due solely to the lack of an elastic
currency. Mr.. Schiff's predictions in
this respect are the result of New
Workers. provincialism.
An elastic currency is greatly to be
desired 1t is often needed for the trans
action of business. AS the country
grows and the volume Of its CONNER
cial transactions increase many fold
more cars, as it We're, are needed to
move the loads, more dollars are need
ed to move from hand to hand in per-
forming the work Of exchanging COM
modities as cars move from town to
town actually carrying the commodi-
ties to be exchanged. AS these dol
lars are needed in greater numbers
some basis for bank circulation be-
comes desirable other than government
bonds which are restricted in volume
Today the ordinary bank check pass

transactions and it has
nothing back of it save the general
credit Of the bank endorsed by the
maker Of the check. There is not a
state or savings bank in this
