The production of Charles Klein's
latest successful play, '"The Third
Degree" which Henry b. Harris will
present at the Calumet theater in the
near future, fresh from a run of seven
months at New York, should arouse
the interest of every theatergoer of
this city who witnessed Mr.. Klein's
"The Lion and the Mouse"
In his latest play, THE Third De-
gree" the author has seen fit to
change the locale to New York city,
and ne has taken for his central char
acters members of the old Knicker-
booker set and police officials. The
story deals with a young man of good
parentage who is under suspicion of
having occasioned the murder of a
man found dead under the most pecu-
liar circumstances. The police in their
stupidity, seeking to unravel the mys-
terry and anxious to fasten the guilt on
someone, seize upon the boy as their
natural victim and bend their every
effort, bringing to bear the entire
weight of their authority to convict
him. The young mans wife. seeking
the aid and assistance of his father,
and being refused, sets herself to de-
feat the minions of the law in their
efforts TO miscarry justice and with
no other resources save her woman's
intuition. ingenuity. courage and cum
ming she fights them single handed.

HARD LUCK, BUT

Two young women went to the mat
inee. They could not get seats to-
gether, but were told at the box office
that each could have an end seat, CEN
ter aisle, in adjoining rows, and most
likely somebody who came along and
had chair next to one of them would
obligingly change seats. Near the close
Of the first act, one of the young wom-
en- timidly whispered to a heavy, mid

been sitting stiffly and looking straight
ahead:
Are you alone. sir?"

The enumerators Of the census are
beginning TO have their troubles, meet
ing with absolute refusals for informa-
ton from some families, mostly OF
foreign birth. BY spreading the fact
that all census data will be held strict
~ confidential and that Uncle Sam
wants this for the purposes Of statis-
tics only, the public can greatly aid the
enumerators i'm their work. The press
has done much I'm this direction and
the churches also have helped greatly.
The number Of people who do not un-
derstand the nature Of the census is
no doubt very small in comparison
with the number that recognize the
importance of the count and necessity
for it. and the latter can do a great
deal in clearing away the skepticism of
the former.

The proposal that next sunday April
"a be set aside as tuberculosis sunday
and that the ministers of the various
churches make il a point on that day I"
give out from the pulpit some general
information regarding the nature OF
the disease. its cause. the necessary
steps for prevention and the best meth
DDS of treatment, calling attention also
To its importance. is an excellent one.
The approval Of President Taft, while
il cannot Of course be taken in an OFF,
cial sense. is nevertheless important as
showing the value placed on the move
ment for a tuberculosis Sunday by
him. THE amount that can be done
in saving human life by united effort
in community and in respect to such
a disease as tuberculosis can hardly
be exaggerated" he says.
tuberculosis is a disease whose
successful combating rests largely on
popular education. The public must
be brought TO realize that certain con-
ditions will produce it and that other
conditions will prevent. The stimuli
taneous discussion Of the disease from
all or nearly all the pulpits would have
a great effect in spreading popular
knowledge Of il.
The matter is one which may be
readily discussed from the pulpit. II

Grafton in the church. 1t is not in any
sense sectarian, has no relation with
questions of creed or religious belief
and consequently adapts itself to dis
cussion in one church as we'll as in

BUYS LEEDS YACHT
John Jacob Astor Purchases
"Noma" from Estate of
Dead Railroad King.
A MEDITERRANEAN CRUISE

New York, July 15~-Although more
or less disclaimers are heard on every
side, there is a lurking suspicion in
the minds of many of his friends that
more than ordinary significance al
be attached to the recent purchase by
John Jacob Aston of the late w. B.
Leeds handsome steam yacht. Mona.
For some years Mr.. Aston has been
the owner. of the Nourmahal. prob
ably the most completely equipped pri-
vate yacht in the world. On it, he
said recently. he had spent some Of
the happiest moments of his life-and
some of the most miserable.
1t will be remembered he was on
this yacht last winter when it ran
into a heavy storm in the Caribbean
sea. and was supposed for a week to
have been lost. With SO pretentious
and seaworthy a boat available, the
purchase Of the Mona, which is not
near SO handsome a yacht, is hard to
understand. At the time his wife d.
vorced him and resumed her maiden
name of Ava Willing, Mr.. Aston in
deep chagrin, declared he would never
again use the Nourmahal and would
give up yachting altogether as a pas
time. This was but six months ago,
and he is now making preparations for
