IS GREAT PRODUCTION.

The sumptuOus revival of "She
Stops to- Conquer" with the distin-
Jeffreys, the noted English star, and
their associate players, will be unfolded
at the Keylor Grand, January 20. So
great has been the desire to see this
noteworthy cast in GOldsmith's celebrat-
ed classic that the ascending curtain
will disclose to the actors a house fill
led n every part. That the PERFORM
ance will be memorable one is as
sured. The cast is an ideal one and re-
presents the best actors of the old
school that grace the boards either in
death Of Mr.. jefferson, Mr.. Crane is
virtually the only exponent of the old
school that is left on the native stage.
In the revival the comedian gives life
to Squire Hardcastle, the fine old coun-
try gentleman whose lout of stepson,
Tony Lumpkin, causes his home to be
mistaken for an inn. His portrayal Of
the character has mellowness and a
grace about it that is delightful. The
humorously quaint old squire's daugh-
ter, saucy Kate, will be played by Miss
Jeffreys. who has enacted the part with
distinction in England. George Cid
dens comes forward as Tommy Lump
kin. a character of which he is the best
living exponent on the stage. Fred
Thorne will be Diggory, Herbert Sheath.
Hastings; Walter Hale, NARROW, a part
all of the leading juvenile men of long
ago were ambitious to play, and Leslie
Kenyon will be Sir Charles NARROW.
Fanny Addison Pitt will be Mrs. Hard
castle, and the handsome Margaret
Dale will be Miss Neville. The five
acts are beautifully mounted and every
attention has been paid to detail.

element of an occasional voyage is
missing.
1t may or it may not be good thing
that the American young man Of navy
age is imbued with the belief thet he
is as good as any other man. He does
not concede that anybody is his super
ior. In civil life he will fight to main
tain that thesis. When he gets into
the navy and finds that he must aban-
don it he begins to think very serious
ly that he does not like sailoring at
ALL When he has pondered upon It
long enough he goes over the side
some dark night and the navy has
another deserter on its books.
This is not agreeable but it is true.
The main impelling cause of deser-
tons from the navy-and from the
army tools the independent spirit OF
the young American. He is the best
soldier or sailor in the world when
there is fighting to be done; he is.any-
thing but the best in time of peace.
There is still another consideration
which applies especially to the navy.
The naval enlisted man has practically
no hope of gaining a commission.
Probably not one sailor in a hundred
would try for one even If it were
available, but the knowledge that
commissioned rank was within the
reach of the men in the fOrecastle
would be a powerful, if sentimental
inducement to enlisted men to remain
loyal to the service. 1t would supply
the esprit de corps which does not now
exist between the quarterback and
the mems quarters Unfortunately, it
is lacking because the chance of a
sailors getting a commission is so
small as to be practically negligible.
There are, therefore, several causes
more powerful than wages ashore for
naval assertions. We shall always
have plenty of seamen to man our
ships in time of war. We are likely
to have no end of assertions in time
of peace. The American is not good
machine soldier or sailor.
