OF DR. ELIOT
HE SPEAKS TO STUDENTS AT UNI-
 VERSrTY.
Harvard President Discussing the Value of EducatiOn Makes Several Good POints-He Goes to
 Atlnnta.

Tuscaloosa. March .10.-Dr. Charles W. Eliot. retiring President of Har- yard. addressed large gathering at the University of Alabama this after noon on The Value of Education" treating his subject under the three heads, rudimentary education. second ary or high school education, and col lege or university education.
 The need of the first. he stated, ap- peared to all. Even the manual la borer needs a rudimentary education Agriculture, he said. requires the high est effiiency in manual labor since in- telligence Is needed in it's direction and the use of tools employed in the mod. ern system of farming. The secondary education Is to prepare the skilled ar. tisan which our latter day industry de- mands, and to open up the view of life and show. in some measure. purpose.
 A college and university education is. he said, to furnish searchers after truth. to make specialists and leaders of thought in commerce. in industry in government
 pr. Eliot showed the advantages to the State in the results of educat ation and declared the wisdom of compulsory education and State appropriation for schools and colleges. The final and highest aspiration of all, he said, was the attainment of freedom-a freedom of the individual compatible. with the freedom of the community. This, he said, was well put in the motto of the grand little republic. Switzerland: Each for all and all flor each !"

William H. Crane at The Grand,


 A proposition of how to get 1.-two boys, who think their father two miles behind the band wagon of modern life, interested in the making of money rather than the spending of 1t may not sound very funny on the face of 1t. but with William H Crane In the role of the father the matter Is simplified. After seeing the veteran actor in George Ade's delightful comedy it Is no wonder that American audiences are most reluctant in consenting to Mir. Crane's retirement from the stage. In the role of Lemuel Moorewood, the father of the two boys, Mir Crane has most congenial character sketch, one Tn which a large theatre going public would hardly tire seeing the actor for several seasons to come
 In brief the story centres about Moorewood and his two sons, the one interested in physical culture, the other in society. neither in carrying on the large business which the father has built up for their inheritance. To make them interested in business and not to be known as simply the son of rich man, Is the problem of the fath@, CT. He makes up his mind to do the things that interest them first. and in carrying out his plan gets eight miles ahead Of the band wagon" Instead of being two miles behind it. He does society. goes yachting with a merry party goes to the races. and dresses the part. His two sons think 1t sec ond childhood, but while the father IS sporting about, take the business in hand. The final curtain is upon the father promising to come home and settle down with his sons who have en- gagged themselves to the two girls which the father picked out for them.
 MT. Crane has not been seen In Mont gomery for a number of years, and a large audience greeted the rise of the curtain last night. Although not a de- monstrative audience, 1t was an appre- ciative one enjoying to the fullest the abilities of an actor making the best possible use of excellent oppor- tunities presented by the playwrght
 Charles Frohman has seen to 1t that MT. Crane Is surrounded with a capa- ble company of actors. Forest Orr and Thomas Meighan. the two sons, were capable in their parts, while Percy Brooks as Tobias Ford. Moorewoods lawyer was excellent
 Margaret Dale, in the role of Bessie Brayton. who helps the old man live the life of a sport, was capital. Adele Clark. as the housekeeper and Harry Dodd. as the butler also deserve most creditable mention.
 The next attraction at the Grand will be Edna Wallace Hopper in Fifty Miles from Boston" tonight.

PLANS OF DEMOCRATS STEAMER GOES DOWN
HORATIO HALL COLLIDEs WITH
 II. F.. DIMOCK.
Wireless Telegraph Again Cuts Figure and the Rescue Work Was
 Thrilling-Accident in Dense

| Chatham Mass, March 10.--Blanket- cd by 8 dense fog and proceeding at | half speed. the steamers Horatio Hau, | of the Maine Steamship Company, rom Portland. Maine, for New York. and H. F. Dimock, of the Metropolitan
 Line. from New York. for Boston met l in the middle of the narrow channel l known as Pollock Rip Slue today with a crash that sent the Hall to the pot tom within half an hour and caused the Dtmock to run ashore six hours later on Cape Cod beach. where the passengers and crew of the Hall were landei unharmed. A wireless message which the oper-
 ator of the sinking Hall managed to | send broadcast spread the news or | the collision, which occurred at a. | m.. but as he failed to give the posi- ton, details of the disaster did not become known until the Dimock came 1 ashore half a mile South of the or leans life saving station shortly after 2 p. m. -.Ei ,9 During the six hours of silence half a hundred wireless stations, govern
 ment professional and amateur. from Portland to New London were vatnly endeavoring to obtain some news of | the wreck, while the revenue cutter Gresham scurried up and down the
 coast in a vain effort to render assist ance.
 As the fog cleared away in the
 early afternoon the Dimock was seen
 heading for the beach and half an
 hour later q boat crew with the five
 passengers from the Hall. including two women, landed safely on Cape Cod beach and told the story of the thrilling scenes of the early morning. The Dimock had rounded Pollock
 Rip lightship and was heading to-
 wards the north while the Hall was coming down through the slue and preparing to swing to the westward. The fog was very dense. but 1t was daylight and both captains were whist ling frequently.
 Although accounts vary, 1t is ap- parent that there was a misunder- standing of signals, for shortly after 8 o'clock the two steamers suddenly loomed up in the fog and before either could sheer off, met in what appeared more like a crushing jar than a terrific crash. The sharp nose of the Dimock went through the side Of the Portland boat abreast of the mainmast and had sufficient force to penetrate fifteen Or twenty feet into the Halls body.
 Captain Thompson, of the Dimock, started to back his steamer. but sec Ing that he might save those on board. sent her full speed ahead. held her nose into the jagged rent in the Hall and as she pushed, the latter over toward the shoal water on the side of the slue. the five passengers on tn Hall were dragged over the tangled mass of wreckage to the. deck of the Dimock.
 Life saving crews. in spite of the heavy surf. landed seventy men and women before dark
 Captain Thompson and his crew de- ciied to remain on board for the night
 The Horatfo Hall was built in ches1 ter Pa. in, 1893 and registered 2,007 tons net. The D1mock was built in Philadelphia. In 1884 and registers l. 7S0 tons.

JOHNSON IS BARRED
NEGRO CHAMPION NOT WANTED IN V yANCOITyER HOTELS.
os Turned Down at Six Different Hotels Before He Finds Resting
 ~ Place for Ills AEM Parfx

Vancouver. B. C.. March 10.-Van. eouver hotel proprietors drew the color line very strictly last night when Jack . Johnson, the black heavy weight cham pion, attempted to secure acommoda- tions. Coming up from the steamer the negro and his party went to the St. Francis Hotel
 Johnson was politely told that the hotel was filled to overfiowing. The clerk was very sorry. adding: Really Mr. Johnson. it could not be helped.
 They aid not have any room. and that it was all there was to it.
 The fighter took the turndown with good grace the first time. but when 1t was repeated in five other hotels, and especially two doilar-a day houses, he was abusive. Johnson said very little. but was muck disgusted at the turn of affairs. Late in the evening they obtained accommodauons at the Dominion, a downtown hotel.
 Johnson spent part of the night at the home of George Paris, boxing in- otructor.
 lF This morning Johnson could not be Hound anywhere
 Sporting men here are inclined to comment on Johnson's lack ef defin- ftet1ess in making possible arrange ments for a fight with Jeffries- He in- variably replied:
 .f ''Oh. yes, will take on anybody.
 But when 1t came to pinning down the black man to details that brought up in mind a vision of hipsef in the circle with the big boilermaker. John- son sidestepped across the Pacific to some more or less irrelevant story az ito his treatment in Australia. Time and again ne refused to talk about fJeffries.
 Sam Fitzpatrick, former manager or Jack Johnson, in a statement to the Associated Press. said:
 "I can see nothing to 1t but that Johnson will be champion for as many years as Jeffries held the title at any rate. You may take it from me John son Is not afraid to meet Je1ries.

AN EFFORTtTO REDUCE POWER OF
 SPEAKER.
Cannon Has Not Consulted With Mi- norfty Leader clark as ts Per-
 somnel of the HOuse
 COnnmffteea.

Washington, March 10.-According to present plans. the. Democratic caucus to be held. next Monday before the House convenes. will adopt resolu- tion in favor of carrying out the pledge of the Denver platform to reduce the power of the. Speaker. It Is under stood that the members will not be pledged to any specific amendments however. F es&f,f M
 On the floor of the House the Demo- crats will attempt to take the lead In the, opposition of the rules. They will not allow the honor to go to the "in- surgents." h'S @-. The opposition of a large number of Democrats to the election of com mittee to select the House committee probably will defeat. that plan of the insurgents" if any opportunity arises to consider that amendment on the floor.
 The proposition to have the Commit tee on Rules elected by the House and barring the Speaker from that commit tee will have more support from the Democratic side. As an evidence of their desire not to interfere with the tariff, the insurgent leaders today an- nounced that they were willing for the Speaker to appoint the Committee on Ways and Means. the other committees d and committees.
 Insurgents" and Democrats were in- dulging in much speculation at the Capitol today as to what would be the policy of Speaker Cannon in selecting the committees of the next House. in the event he Is successful in the pres- ent fight over the organization of the Sixty-first Congress. The Democrats are apprehensive that the Speaker will assume the right to i'll the minority as well as the majority places on the committees.
 Several Democrats have appealed to the Speaker directly for appointment on certain committees. When John Sharp Williams was minority leader. Speaker Cannon referred all such ap- plications- to the minority leader. He has taken<no such action this time. Minority leader Clark's friends say he can interpret this course in but one way. There have been no conferences between the minority leader and the Speaker. and 1t is understood none Is scheduled.
 The Democrats will make political capital from the failure to recognize that this Is another illustration of the despotic power. of the Speaker
 Another possibility that Is worrying both the Democrats and the insurgents Is that Speaker Cannon may classify the "insurgents' as minority members of the House and make up committees on that basis. That would reduce the Democratic representation on the com mittees and might prove embarrassing to the Insurgents" in the future. /
 It was claimed afterwards that the fight on the rules is not to be abandon ed and it is denied that the Democrats and 'insurgents' have entered into an agreement as to voting for any spe- ciffc rule. j e.
