Thyrsus, the Dramatic Club Of
Washington University, which will
produce "The Good Natured Man" at
the New Grand on April 9th, was
organized 1904 by the students Of the

Club is 70 revive each year one of the
classic plays and produce It in che
true spirit Of the time which it
represents. Sioce Its Organization.
the Club has acquired a Theatre of lis

month of the college year a short play
In June, 1895, Thyrsus presented at

performances were we'll received and
secured the most favorable comment
from the press Of both AL 90 and st.

Sheridans "School for Scandal" was
given at the Oieon 10 s.. Louis and
the house was packed. The pro.

the most favorable comments of the
press. The Post Dispatch spoke OF
the performance as follows: "Many
companies of professionals have
presented this masterpiece of the
stage less acceptably than these

Difficulties Of Bible Translation.

To any person who gives the matter
The least thought, it must seem
nothing short of miraculous that SO
magnificent a piece OF literature as the
CHRISTIAN Bible could ever be translated
into the spoken tongue OF savsges who
possesses 40 written language at all,
and in thousand of cases have no
equivalents for important words OF
the Bible. Well do l remember DR..
Haven pointing out to me, at the
Bible Society Headquarters, that the
phrase 'sLamO of God" was found a
very serious obstacle in turning tho
New Testament into Eskimo, for that
people did not know what sheep we're,
had never seeR any, and could not
conceive of taem. Therefore the
rhsase %as rendered The I ittlee G
of Cod"
Naturally. then, this question Of
translating the Bible calls for labor
which can fairly be called heroic. a
translator must devote his life to the
work, as did Bishop Schereschewsky.
This remarkable Bible scholar, altho
well-nigh helpless physically through
incursble paralysis, for over fourteen
years %"pounded" on the typewriter
with the solitary forefuger whose use
be retained, preparing every word Of
both Testaments for his monumental
translation into the Easy Wen Ii
dialect Of Chinese, thus Masking our
Bible essihle to scores OF millions
of people who speak that tongue.

A movement developed during the
week which, il it becomes a law, will
establish what appears to be as near
ly a perfect scheme for federal control
of the railroads as is possible in this
country. The origin Of the plan 6
credited to the Interstate Commerce
Q mmission, and is said to be directly
resultant Of the disclosure made re-
Gently Of the various roads investiga-
ted by that body. President Roose.
welt now has the matter under con-
siderasion, and 1t 1t is also said that
1t will form a part Of the discussion
which the Chief Executive will have
with the various railroad officials
within the next few weeks Briefly
put, the pl,n contemplates the legal
zatlon Of mergers by exemptlng rail-
roads from the Sherman antitrust act
and establishing Federal supervision
over the finances Of these corpora
tions. This will give the railroads
every opportunity for expansion and
development, and at the same time
will give the investing public a
Government guarantee that mere
stock jobbing cannot be carried on In
the name Of expansion aud develop
ment. The Federal Government In
other words, will pass upon stock
issues, bond issues and also fix a limit
OF capitalization. This will be done
ia conjunction with the railroad
appraisement plan TO- favored by
the President. That 1t will meet
with general favor is taken for
granted, since even prominent
railroad officials have come to realize
that IL the corporations are again to

confidence, a more stringent Federal
supervision is imperatIve.-St. Louis

to wait upon the Governor and inform
him that the House was ready to re-

Both these committees reported later,

A short recess was then taken in or"

railroad in 1t has increased so per cent
in the past hye years, and the number
OF ton miles for each mile OF track has
grown Is per cent The highest direction
and the best economy is to have track
age, equipment and other facilities prop
erly adjusted TO the volume OF business.
and then keep moving II in harmonious
and useful way.
The problem and necessity are enor-
nous, AT lao tons to the mile, 1T would
require TWO million tons OF steel rails
every year to furnish the miles of track
required This is nearly two thirds OF
the product of all the rolling mills in the
United States: II would call for the
labor Of 10000 men Srdg in Ernd1s nd 6e
others. Labor even for such ordinary
extensions and improvements as are now
being made is not to be had in sufficient
quantities on any terms. And IL de-
mands, as has been seen. the invest
ment In permanent railroad plants OF
s1,l0o, 600 900 year for five years to
provide the railroads Of the country with
means TO handle properly the business
already in sight. not allowing for future
growth This is the real railroad prob
lem OF the United States.
Remedies to Be Found.
Two remedies must he found The
prohtbitory expenses now attached to en-
largement OF terminals at many points.
and the absolute lack of available space
at any price. may be met by decen-
tralization OF traffic. A fifteen foot canal
OF channel from ST Louis 10 New Or
leans would go further TO relieve the
entire middle West and Southwest than
any other work that could be undertaken.
With such a depth OF water. single
powerful tugboat would carry from 30
to 40 trainloads. Terminal troubles admit
OF more general diffusion OF business,
permitting transfers to take place and
forwarding TO he done where land can
be secured In adequate quantities and
at more reasonable prices To this the
traffic systems of the country must be
adjusted The heavy transfers must be
made away from the larger cities.
Lack of Confidence.
II is not by accident that railroad
building has declined TO Its lowest within
n generation, at the very time when oil
other forms OF activity have been grow
ing most rapidly, The investor declines
TO put his money into enterprises under
ban OF unpopularity, and even threatened
by individuals and political parties with
conflscation or transfer TO the State. This
feeling must be removed and greater
confidence be mutually established II any
considerable portion OF the vast sum
necessary is to be available for the
work.
There must be a realization by the
country of the embargo on business and
OF the fact that the cause lis insufficient
railroad trackage IT will require the
best thought and the best efforts OF this
generation to avert the evil that now
rer and merchant; to arrest the progress
of the paralysis that Is laying It's grip
on the heart of commerce and TO restore
the wholesome circulation without which
there can not be life and the growth In
either individual or the common wealth.
