ROSE AND DAGGER

Since Thackeray wrote VANITY
Fair" a novel without a hero. such
books have attained almost to the
commonplace Even a Song Without
Words" is no longer curiosity. But
a dramatic play a thing artistic be
yond words, and yet play without
words, is indeed a thing of wonder.
Such an offering is accorded headline
honors at the Orpheum theater for the
week beginning tomorrow afternoon,
And in the stellar role of this drama
without words will be no less an artist
than Rosario Guerrero, one of the best
known artistes in her line in the world.
1.-THE Rose and the Dagger" fam
tastic one-act pantomime, is the star
ring vehicle of Sonora Guerrero. A
dancer, the comely Guerrero, returning
from a ball, is forced to seek shelter
in the hut of a bandit. His cupidity
aroused by the sight of her jewels, he
attempts her robbery. How she uses
all her. woman's wiles and finally per
suades him to trade his dagger for the
rose in her bosom are but parts of the
gripping drama that holds and thrills
throughout.

WHEN OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS

A New Jersey farmer, whose farm is
near a school for boys, was greatly an
noyed by the depredations of the
youngsters. Finding two of the boys
helping themselves to his choice apples
he ushered them from his premises
ably assisted by the toe of his boot
The following day he found the same
boys lettering in the vicinity of his or
chard fence.
What you young scamps hangin
round here for?" he shouted. 81 told
you yesterday what you'd git if l
caught you on my land ag'in."
Eyes, sir; we remember" explained
the spokesman. I'VE didn't come for
apples this time. We came to ask you
to join our football eleven. "-Harper's
Weekly.

THE JAPANESE COMPOSING ROOM


If the typesetters of the western
world have their troubles they are as
nothing compared with those of the
Japanese composing room.
The Japanese, like their brethren,
the Chinese, employ a written Ian
guage-what might be called a literary
dialect-that is quite different from the
colloquial tongue. In other words,
they do not, as we, write as they
speak. This proceeding requires the
printing of their journals in two Ian
guages, the Kama" and the square
characters serving as a key to the
other. These square characters are
modelled on Chinese ideographs, a
tumble of geometric figures crosses,
etc, presenting picturesque zigzag
effect.
There are 1000 to 5000 of these ideo-
graphs in everyday use. The compos
itor must, therefore, be something of
able to recognize the characters at
as much as possible the arrangement
of his workroom is something like this:
The compositor seats himself at a
little table, upon which are spread
forty-seve Kama characters. AS he
receives copy he cuts it into small
strips handing each strip to a boy.
This boy marches along the room until
he has finally been able to collect from
a number of cases arranged in files
down the room the different ideo-
graphs desired. About six or seven
boys are thus employed in the average

japanese composing room running
hither and thither. AS they go their
rounds in search of the ideographs
they keep up a dirgelke chant, which
would certainly be very trying to the
nerves of any but an oriental.
When the boys have collected all
their ideographs Shey place them be
fore the compositor, who then has re-
course to a pair of goggles in order
TO decipher the characters, fish out the
corresponding tpyes in the "Kana"
character, and finally set up the whole
for proving. The proofs are sung aloud
oy one reader to another, thns adding
to the confusion of weird sounds al
ready reigning in the room.

NOT CONGENIAL

When man admires womans style,
And all her pretty graces,
'Tis sad when he starts making eyes
To find her making faces.

JEWISH ANTI-SEMITES.

The "snob' Jew, who speaks against
or sneers at his people never advances
his prestige in the minds of his hear
ers. On the contrary, he lowers it;
as if there is one virtue which all
mankind appreciates and honors, it is
that of patriotism, and patriotism APP
plies just as much to pride of race as
pride of nation, and, though one may
not think it at the time, one invariab
ly tends to lower the entire community
in the eyes of the people amongst
whom we dwell when we take the OPP
portunity of sneering at our co-relig-
ionists and refusing to afford them
the assistance which a kindly Provi-
dence has placed it in our way to
give-South African Jewish Chron-
lcle johannesburg.

SHORT SERMONS WANTED.

A contemporary makes some rather
pertinent comment on the wages of
brevity and repeats the recent news
paper report of man and his wife
who presented a former minister with
a fine sixty-acre farm as mark Of
gratitude for preaching short and point
ed sermons. This, we believe, is with
out precedent and might be an induce
ment to other preachers to curtail and
point their addresses in anticipation.

APPROVES HOSPITAL AGITATION.


Owing to pressure on our space let
ters on this subject are held over for
the ensuing issue.
The Boston edition of the Jewish
American" says:
''The movement to erect Jewish
hospital has been resurrected. The
Messiah who is responsible for it's re-
surrection is the Jewish Advocate"
The principal reason for the need of
Jewish hospital is not the tax-dodging
problem but Kosher food, knowledge
of the patients language, mutual
understanding between hospital and
the attendants.
Jewish patients, owing to lack of
understanding, and very often due to
prejudice, are treated very rough at
the hands of the hospital employees.
We wish the Jewish Advocate god
speed in it's efforts to awaken the
Jewish community to the need OF a
Jewish hospital

SETTLING LUMBER DISPUTES
They Are Submitted to Commercial
Tribunal in France.
Procedure Simple and the Services
OF Solicitors Are Not
Required.

In reply 10 an inquiry from a Maryland
lumber exporting company, Consul Al
phonse Gaulin. Of Havre. furnishes the
following information concerning the set
tlement Of commercial disputes in France:
In France all disputes relating TO com
merciaI transactions may be submitted
to the local tribunals OF commerce. These
tribunals have exclusive jurisdiction IN
cases where the amount involved does not
exceed 100 francs (S2s9.) and original
Jurisdiction in other cases. where their
decisions may be reyersod by the Civil
Court Of Appeals OF the district; but the
parties may agree beforehand that the
decision Of the tribunal will be final. and
such agreements are binding The judges
Of these tribunals are elected every two
years by the merchants OF the district,
and are generally chosen among business
men who have graduated from law
schools. The Havre tribunal enjoys the
highest reputation, and its impartiality
toward all concerned has never been
questioned
The procedure IS very simple. The sery-
ices OF solicitors are not required as In
the civil courts. II Is not even necessary
that the parties should be represented by
ance of a writ Of summons. which IS
served on the defendant. A written state
ment OF the case is fled by the plain
tiff on the return day Of the writ. and
