SECRETARY MEYERS REFORMS.

New York Times-The secretary of
the navy is, first of all, business man
of experience and sound Judgment. In
the postoffice department he gave proof
of the possession of those qualities.
There some reforms and changes that
he had planned encountered obstacles
obstacles of political nature Not
much has been said about them, but
they were so formidable that it is un-
derstood that Mr.. Meyer willingly ex-
changed the postmaster generaIship for
the navy portfolio. In that depart
ment there was an opportunity, and he
was the man for it. The country has
heard much of the astonishing bureau
system, of the division and eomminu-
ton of authority and responsibility, of
the iealousies of line and staff, and of
the confusion inevitably resulting from
a false and unavoidable method of adj
ministration. Out of this chaos Mr..
Meyer, after months of diligent study
and conference, has brought the begin
ming of order. That win be recognized
as the foundation, the primary quality
of the system he has now established.

Faversham as "Herod."

William Faversham will present his
spectacular production of Stephen Phil
lips "Herod' at the Belasco Theater next
Saturday evening and all of next week.
Upward OF two hundred people are en-
ployed in this play. Apart from its merit
as spectacle, 'Herod" is. according to
all accounts, a play of action. of move
ment and Of strife. Those who first read
it found it delight as literature, little
understanding its bigness as drama.
The reason is that the author does not
indicate In the text what Is disclosed In
the way Of poignant suggestion in the
play. He intended that 1t should be
there, else he would not have written
the play, for Stephen Phillips was an
actor long before he tried his hand at
drama. The big scene, Herod's Hall OF
Audience. is one OF the most magnificent
sets ever seen on the stage. Mr.. Faver-
sham has gathered about him fine COM
pany, and his own performance has been
generally commended as the highest OF
his achievements. &

TENNESSEE BARS MERMAIDS.
Scant Welcome for Figurehead Of
Namesake Battleship.

The official standard of purity in art
10 so peculiar In Franklin, Tenn. that
the aguredhead of the armored cruiser
Tennessee probably will never rest there.
This results from the attitude taken by
Mayor e. M. Perkins Of that city In a
letter to the commandant OF the Bremen
ton navy yard, Wash, where the Tennes-
see was stationed.
His Letter reads:
1--WE have received your favors of Oc-
tober IS and November OF the present
year, but as we had never made any re-
quest for the loan OF the fgurehead Of
the good ship Tennessee. and as we had
no funds appropriated for the purpose of
paying freight on the same, We simply
remained quiet.
However, IL the said figurehead is that
Of a beautiful woman we will take good
care of her II she is sent free. But II
1t is something scary. like a mermaid or
sea serpent, we don't want her at q
discount even.
The letter has been forwarded to the
Navy Department with the information
that the figurehead is not a woman,
neither is 1t a mermaid or a sea ser
pent.
