FIOIl the EIlildutlplAldi 4iAAaAitAs
 The discussion of the modern stage by the Contemporary club developed, as was to be expected, a wide divergence of opinion. Whether during the past guar ter of a century the American theatre has retrograded or advanced, whether the dramatic performances of today are as good as those which the veteran mem- ory recalls, is a point which in the na- tlre of things does not admit of an ex act and positive determination. It is an issue whose decision depends upon the point of view, upon the personal prefer ence upon the standards by which ex- cellence Is to be appreciated. Those whose play-goinS experience goes the furthest backward can recall many i'm presentations the like of which they con- fidently asseverate can be no longer wit messed and as they recite the names of the great ones who have passed away they feel Justified, perhaps they are jus tifed, in declaring that nowhere today can the equals of these be found.
 It is rather more than possible that some of the change they note is in them selves Memory Is a great magniher. When the mature man returns to the scenes which he has not visited since childhood he is apt to be astonished at the way in which the things that are as- sociated with his youth have shrunk, and could he see again some of the great performances which he remembers they might not so deeply impress him as once they did That is characteristic or human nature which accounts for much of the complaint of which the degeneracy of the modern stage is the occasion. Those who are now old and middle-aged know that when they went to the theatre 20 or 90 years ago they derived more pleasure from the entertainment than they do now; but 1t is quite possible, and even probable, that the reason Tor this is not so much the deterioration of the performance as the decline in their own capacity for enjoyment
 Of course there is no denying that some of the great actors and actresses dead and gone have left no successors but though that be conceded, it does not fol- low that the stage of today Is inferior to that of yesterday. It is not inferior; it is different. It has its own qualities and its own merits as well as it's own de- fects It reflects the contemporary taste because such Is the condition of it's ex- 3stence. and it may be that the taste 1t reflects is less elevated. less dignifed, less inteligently discriminating than that of A generation ago; but It engages the services of men and women who are as true and fine artists in their manner as any of ther predecessors. and its pro- Auctions are distinguished in all respects bv finish and completeness unknown to the productions of other days. Such care less, shabby, makeshift representations as were once the usual thing would not be tolerated now.
 Each successive generation, as it passes across the stage of life, is apprehensive as to the character of the generation mat is coming after 1t, but upon the whole the movement in every direction is still upward and onward, and to this rule the stage is no exception.

WHY WE OUGHT
 TO GO TO CHURCH

From Leslie's Weekly.
 In the good olden days the Sunday sermon was the intellectual treat of the week, the main topic of conversation from one Sabbath to another. That day is forever past. Books, magazines, daily papers, entering every home. are preach ing sermons on the moral issues of life every day of the year. Yet the field of the pulpit is not pre-empted. The Chris tian minister may still speak with au- thority on the spiritual aspects of truth. The pulpit platform, with all the sacred surroundings of the sanctuary. re-en- forced, too, by the preachers personality, can make an appeal to the emotions. the imagination, the will such as cannot come from the printed page
 But aside from the sermon itself. be 1t inspiring or otherwise. people ought to go to church to worship God. Should there ever arise a generation that forgets 10 worship at appointed times and places, moral advance will have received it's death blow. It is instinctiye for man to worship a power higher than himself, and 1t is the Christian church which con- serves this instinct. The church has al- ways been too closely identified with the moral and intellectual progress of man kind to allow its influence to 1anguish. Can there be an easier or simpler way for every man ito lend a hand than to have a revival of the good habit of church going2

tobacco district on Pearl street, just north of Wall. The dainty comes steam ing to the table wrapped coyly in a green banana leaf. It must first be stripped of it's habiliments, then eaten with a glass of Riocca wine at hand.
 A pork tamale Is the hallacas. Minced pork and corn meal steamed together, is it's body There are raisins in the meal and a stoned olive. With just enough chilli sauce to give 1t bite and some fire the hallacas stands revealed-an alien tidbt praying for naturalization.
 The honorable raufish may not set forth such right to speedy acceptance. Strange ly enough, people who want to eat their oyster alive draw the line instinctively at fish dead, but not cooked. Yet the merit that Hes in this Oriental exotic. which can be found in Japanese res- taurant just east of Broadway, is conn pelling when once discovered.
 The fish Is served in thin crisp strips. each of a finger length and resting on little grating of glass rods. bamboo shoot. pickled, a pinch of horseradish. and a lettuce leaf flank the dish In porcelain cup Is the soy or bean sauce, pungent and appetizing and tasting much like worcestershire piece of the fish, dash of horseradish, dipped to- gether in the soy-and one believes that the Japanese, too, know the worth of life.

a bitter fight in the courts, which finally reached the court of appeals. Of course this costly litigation was not paid for by the vestrymen or even by the communi- cants of Trinity. This legal battle was financed out of the rentals of the very people who were to be benefited by the new law. #
 However, 1t was epoch making case, for it decided that the state can compel private owner for the good of the public, to alter a house at his own expense. But the church had to be driv- en to the new moral standard by the courts.
 "Trnity's long-fought legal battle had succeeded in delaying the enforcement of the law from 1887 until 1s95-eight years In spite of itself, however. Trin- ity helped along the cause Of better homes for the poor in way it little in tended. The very bitterness of it's legal struggle against making improvements served to turn public attention even more closely to housing conditions in lower Manhattan. In 1894 the famous tenement house commission, of which Richard Watson Kilder was chairman. was appointed. Investigation showed that hundreds of tenements had no toilet conveniences in them; but that so-called school sinks or open water closets in the back yards, were used by all the ten ants, and that thousands or men, women and children were sleeping in dark holes of rooms in which there were no win dows opening to the outer alr-breeding places, indeed. for tuberculosis.
 Tn 1901 a law was passed through the efforts of the Tenement House commis- sion, of which Robert w. DeForest was president abolishing school sinks and dark inside rooms in tenements. Trinity waited; this time the law was tested in the courts by another landlord, and it was not sustained until 1904 What did Trinity then do? Where it could not avoid compliance with the law. necessary changes were made; but in many cases

The building of towns to order has be- come a regular industry. Tremendous strides have been made in the last 10 years in raising populous cities in what had been suburban districts. This industry has many capitalists, thoroughly equip ped plants and yields as a rule very satisfactory profits to the promoters A vast army of workmen are employed, both skilled and unskilled. These plants are located in many of the leading cities of the United States, and through them there is an immense development of the suburbs of these cities.
 In a description of the work of these companies, a writer in American Indus tries states that the largest developing company did more business than any oth- CT half dozen. it's total sales for last year having run over 4O00 lots at total val
 uaton of nearly $5,O000p0. During the course of this company's business 1t has handled more than 105 subdivisions, com prsing a total of about 10000 lots, of which 26,000 have been in New York City.
 The labor involved in these enterprises is thus described The land is usually a farm or farms or a private estate near the city The cost depends entirely on the ability of the promoter to drive a sharp bargain or to make his purchases secret ly It is seldom that the land is bought directly by the promoter, especially if the
 selected plot belongs to more than one owner A small part is bought here un- der one excuse and there under another. In the case of one town within few miles of Brooklyn, as in others. negotia- tions were carried on for half decade be- fore the entire plot was finally secured.
 Several years ago a suburban promoter
 operating near Philadelphia bought n
 dozen small farms, consisting of about 140 acres for which he paid total of s1S2, GOO He gave $2S00 toward the con struction of an ornamental railroad sta ton constructed an electric line from the city to his property. at a cost of $66OD, and expended in grading streets, planting trees, etc, about s60 ,000 This was an in vestment of more than $300.000. and that without house or a sale to show for 1t.

Conditions Said to Be Bad in

STARTLING DISCOVERIES
Divorced Couple Desiring to Remarry Queer Their Plans by Attacking the Laws of Their Country
 Requiring a Wait.
By PAUL VILLiERS.

Paris, May z2.-The commission of in quiry into the condition of the navy Is learning startling things every day. The commissioners, who are all deputies and claim to be naval experts, are now at Brest. The advocates of a strong navy shudder The naval authorities at the port placed themselves unreservedly at the disposal of the commissioners, ans wering the questions put to them with amazing frankness. Bear-Admiral Adam had much to say concerning the vessels in the reserve and those which are being repaired in the arsenal. He declared that the vessels in the reserve were without naval value. Captain Estienhe, who commands the first torpedo flotilla, point ed out that the boats lacked shelter Some startling facts were given by Dr. Hyades, who directs the health service. He asserted that there was an appalling scarcity of nurses in the Maritime hos pital, while the supply of medicaments was lamentably insufficient If France was at war a terrible scene of disorder would be disclosed. Consumption was making frightful ravages in the arsenal, added the doctor. He suggested that as soon aS WOTkilldn SulIeIeu lTOm con sumption measures should be adopted to keep him under observation. Usually a man suffering from consumption was kept six months, and sometimes a year, when he had not reached the age of re- tirement The result was that he con- taminated his comrades. It was comput- ed that there were 400 deaths from con sumption every year in the arsenal, workshops, and offices at Brest
 The three vessels in the reserve were inspected by the commissioners. They are the SpaX, the Formidable, and the Courbert, and the commissioners found that they were only good enough to be broken up and sold. A hostile reception awaited the commissioners when they entered the arsenal. The workers who belong to the Red union, that is to say, they favor revolutionary methods for achieving their ends, raised hostile cries The commissioners are in favor of piece work, and this the worlSmen do not de- sire.
 Further disconcerting facts were gath cred by the commissioners is that Brest Is in a bad way. It was pointed out that the entrance to the harbor Is not suf1- ciently defended, and that the town could be enfladed by a hostile squadron whose approach could not be ascertained with any degree of rapidity.
