ing of the death of Merle Singleton,
which occurred in Falls City last
night, resulting from injuries received
in an accident nearly a month ago.
The young man was employed in the
lumber yard OF the Falls City Lumber
Company at the time the accident
occurred. A loaded lumber truck out
of control caught him and, pinned
under its enormous weight, his body
was crushed in terrible manner The
physicians made heroic fight for the
life Of the injured boy but it soon
became clear that the case was hope
less Aided by the strong constitution
and great vitality of the patient twas
possible to maintain the unequal
struggle for twenty six days until last
night when, all possible devices human
ingenuity could command having
been vainly tried. the sufferer passed
quietly away. The deceased was only
16 years Of age at Ghe time OF his death.
He is survived by his parents, Mr..
and Mrs. I. G. Singleton, of Falls City,
and a number of relatives in other
parts of Polk county. The keenest
sympathy is felt by all for the parents
of the young man. who are almost
inconsolable over their loss. The
remains will be taken to Monmouth
today where the funeral services art
to be held.

By ALIEN d ALRFRT-

In the space OF eight days-AIrs. Ffsze.
Julia MarloWe and Ethel Barrymore.
Every hour Of the theatrical dial is
covered there. AIRS Fiske is a leader
wth Duse in the projection OF an art
chiefly u-tural. Miss 0[arl0we is prob
ably the most accomplished exponent
ar the traditions of acting now on the
LnEEsh-speakinE stage. Miss Barry
more is the inheriuix Of traditions and
technique and a striking illustration OF
The power OF personality
How lar is personality 10 prevail in
acting by women. The theory of all
stage art is that IT consists Of the repre-
sentauon OF human personalities as dis
closed In a series of acts predetermined.
The more completely the actor can
create wholly different personalities for
his several roles the more nearly COM
plete is his art But is this the stand
ard as 20 acting by women? IF 1t IS,
no one Of these three has earned high
distinction.
Some Personal-Cham Actresses.
The tendency Of the modern stage ls|
to say that whatever else n lovely
woman may undertake she must not inn
mOlate her personal charm. To that
tendency Miss Maxine Elliott. Miss NrsrvI
1Iannerins. and Miss Barrymore are now
consplcuously responsive. The last
named is easily the most capable OF the
three. from every point OF view. But
81 IS questionable II this kind OF srtluz
advances any actress substantially.
One sign is that such personal charm
cannot last Either il wears OUT or
ir passes as the woman advances in
years. Acting NJ the other kind de-
Telops as the actress Grows older and
the womans position becomes more
and more nearly serure-as in the case
Of Mrs Siddons. Charlotte Cuslmau, |
and Duse.
Another sign is that the skin de-
manded comes to be more and more
that az the playwright and less and
Jess that of the actress. Thus, the
manager is on the lookout for Mary
NanueIinE part or an ETHEL Bar
rymore role and not for a play which.
having steugth i'm itself. requires of
the leading actress that she bend herr
self TO its chief character assume the
temperament and moods of that char
scter, and create as. far as possible the
precise personality which the play
vrigLts equation requires. This BUSH
ness Of pattern roles means staeuaJiOn (
for the actress. mauifestly. But il has I
another effect, like thar already indl- /
cated-that pretty soon playEoers tire /
OF the womsn's roles as they are dsu-
ger0usly likely to IKE Of her.
Still another sign Isl that tLe more ann /
billions uL such actors undertake To /
break through the lines. Miss Annie /
