Conservative John Drew.

John Drew is the great ''conserva-
tive" of the stage. He believes that a
great many of the old ways and old
ideas are best. This is unusual in a
man who is still young in years and
still younger in his feelings, but it has
been explained on the same theory that
explains why Gladstone was a Tory in
youth. And perhaps when John Drew
grows up he will be Radical.
Mr. Drew believes that the best adj
vertisement of a play is the spoken
word" which is certainly old fashioned
in this age of newspapers. He says
that. while he is deeply grateful and
deeply indebted to the press for its
kindness, he thinks the best advertise
ment is pleased playgoer who tells
his friends that 'Inconstant George" is
a good show" Mr.. Drew also dissents
from the latter day theories of Angus
tus Thomas, in which the playwright
contends that the drama is primarily an
appeal to the eye. Mr.. Drew again
holds that the spoken word" is the
thing; that the actor get his effects and

CUSTOMS COURT
CHANGES COME

WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-Today wit
nesses the passing of the treasury
departments control of the board of
United States general appraisers, and
hereafter the customs tribunal will be
as Independent of the government as
are the federal courts. The change
about to be made becomes an accom-
plished fact as the direct result Of
amendments incorporated in the ad-
ministrative section OF the Aldrich-
Payne tariff bill passed on August 5
last
Ever since the foundation of the
board of appraisers in 1890, the var
i0us administrations in the treasury
department have been wont TO look
upon the board as a bureau of the
department, and as such amenable to
directions from the secretary of the
treasury, or his subordinateS. This
conception has from time to time been
opposed vigorously by some of the
more independent members of the

turned more than 100000. Then

restaurants. which mean an addi-
tional item of $250,000. OF this
amount the Broadway restaurants will
get $15O000 Flowers, cabs. tips,
favors and music bring up the total
to the half million mark.
AS in the matter of passing upon
the legal quality of Sunday amuse-
ments, the police will have to use their
the New Years Eve jewellers within
bounds. The patrolmen in a fatherly
manner, will merely look on except
where exhilration verges on roWdy-
ism, or where some effervescent young
man attempts to poke miniature
feather buster, technically known as a
ticker" into the face or down the
neck of some giddy young mourner.
The inspectors will be stationed at
the various points where New York
ers are most wont to congregate to
see the old year out. Singularly
enough, in the past, the greatest trou-
BILE in the way of uncontrolled enthu~
siasm has been found in the shadow
of old Trinity church, at the head OF
Wall street where the ancient chimes
ring out a farewell to the dying year
and greeting to the new. The quiet
which reigns about the old edifice has
year after year been turned into q
bedlam, which can be best described
by an adjective derived from the ira
ditional enemy of churches.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-With wan

ten and unWritten, sanctioned by leg

ciety will be smashed into bits to-

Workers join in the annual New York

All day long the prenlonitiOn of what
is to come could be found along Broad :

biggest hit ever known in New York
