GREAT interest has been manifested In
the aviation meet at Asbury Park and
regret was expressed at the accidents
which occurred and which caused the In
quiry to be made what good would come
from these exhibitions. An answer is
readily at hand in one case. The flights
of balloon from which man drops
several hundred feet have no real merit,
but serve merely to satisfy the desire of
those who wish to see feats Of daring. In
the case of the aeroplanes the tests that
have been made have shown the achieve
ments possible to result from the use Of
the flying machines. and the success that
has been attained In the infancy of this
science is very satisfactory. Several
questions have arisen. In the case of an
accident whereby people are injured by
one of these machines falling upon or
striking him, who is responsible for the
damage7 1t has been suggested that there
must be Legislation to cover the manipula-
tion Of aeroplanes, but as the skies are
not under the control of the lawmakers
the licensing of the flyers seems to be i'm
practicable. The thing that suggests it.
self is that the person owning or running
one of the airships should be compelled to
take out insurance that would protect
those who might be injured In mlshap.
1t is said this course was pursued by the
managers of the Asbury Park meet, and
that sufficient insurance was placed on
the possible accidents to cover all claims
that may be presented for damages.

Theatres.
CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE

CHESTNUT STKEET THEATRE
"The Fighting Hope" which proved
one of the best plays and biggest successes
ever done by the Orpheum Players at the
Chestnut Street Theatre, Philadelphia,
will be retained another week in order to
give the thousands who are returning
from seashore and mountains an oppotun-
ity to witness this magnificent production.
It is only on rare occasions that the Or
pheum Players present play more than
one week and this is one of these rare
instances when change in policy becomes
necessary. Everybody who has seen
1.-THE Fighting Hope" which, by the
way, was originally produced last year
by David Belasco, with Blanche Bates in
the stellar role, agrees that it is an ex-
ceptionally fine drama and particularly
well presented. The performance, on the
whole, is most impressive and adds sub
stantially to the laurels already achieved
by the Orpheum Players. Miss Louise
Woods. former member of the Belasco
forces, who is new to the patrons of the
Chestnut Street Theatre, is giving an
intelligent and graceful Interpretation to
the character of Anna Grandes, about
whom the chief interest of the drama
centres.
Beverly" the dramatization of George
Barr McCutcheon's successful novel of
that name, the sequel to "Graustark,
which will be the attraction at the Audi
torium, Burlington, Wednesday, August
Al, is story of real life told in real and
convincing manner. 1t relates the excit-
ing adventures of an American girl, Bev-
erly Calhoun of Washington, D. c., while
on visit to the ruling princess of mys-
teal principality in the eastern part of
Europe, one of the Balkan states. In
staging the production, the management,
Delamater & Norris, have endeavored to
make every least possible detail true to
life, and it is only necessary to state that
they have been aided and advised by that
master of stage craft, David Belasco, for
theatre goers to realize with what care
and expense Beverly" has been produced.
Belasco has standard from which he will
not recede and anything that bears his i'm
print must be as perfect as money and ar
tistic genius can make it. Beverly"
was staged under the personal direction OF
Oscar Engle, one of Mr.. Belasco's highest
salaried aids.

something else on hand than to tell justices
OF the peace how to conduct their offices.

COMMENTING upon the candidacy of for
mer Governor Stokes for United States
Senator the independent Newark Car
says:
"It is frank and plausible and should
appeal to the public of this State with
great force Mr.. Stokes Is one OF the
ablest representative men-more SO than
In his administrative capacity. And we
believe that all who know him recognize
In him one who would meet the require
ments of the Federal Senatorship to a
very exceptional degree. His declaration
of principles fails TO interest us very
much. One of the greatest of English
men once wrote his apologize pro vita
sua." Most of us would like to explain.
Mr.. Stokes gives his views on few
problems of national Importance, but,
after all, why should we elect a man to
be Senator because he favors certain
policies and plans of government. What
we know about Stokes is that he is clean
and fair, understands his State well. has
had considerable experience in legislation,
can state his views In a way to attract
and hold an audience and has a lively
sense of his responsibility to his people.
All that Is better than opinions upon
issues which may vanish even before he
could take office If he were elected.
Representative character is the true test.
Honesty and sense of duty are almost
a matter of course"

ONE of John Kean's props was knocked
from under him last week when Demo
cratic candidate for United States Senator
announced his intention Of seeking the
position by petition. Mr.. Kean, 1t will
be remembered, said he had not heard of
any Democrat doing this thing and gave
that as one of his reasons for not going
into that sort OF contest. He also said
he felt such course might hurt his party,
but the Democratic candidate does not
have any such fear. On the contrary he
thinks it will strengthen his side. 1t is to
be regretted that Mr.. Kean does not 60
before the people and show his strength,
but probably he feels as others do that it
would develops weakness that would be
humiliating. His popularity would GER
tainly be measured to its true dimensions
If the people were allowed to speak.

No DOUBT can exist now on the United
States Senatorial proposition, David
Baird, of Camden. having decided that he
will not present his case to the people but
will rely on the vote In the joint session
of the Legislature. This places Baird and
Kean together, against those who have
already circulated petitions and who are
willing that the people shall say who shall
be their choice. Mr.. Baird, in addition
to seeing grave danger to the party in
going before the people, thinks the Con-
stitutional rights of candidate are being
trampled upon by such action. The issue
is now squarely Joined and the people
must decide.
