Immoral and Lurid Drama.

To the Editor CT the Evening Star:
/ am in deep sympathy with the Rev.
Adolph Roeder, president of the New
Jersey State Civic Federation, in his
attack on such plays as "The China
town Trunk Mystery But he is en-
tirely too mild in his attack and | know
1t, because l attended the show the
other day, not to be entertained or
amused, but for reasons of my own.
The trouble with SUCH societies as the
federation is that they are too SLOW to
move. The play was widely advertised
by pernicious posters long before ~
stencil was unbottled under the noses
of our citizens. Then was the time to
get ready and make a move in the in
terest of common decency and not wait
until the week is nearly done to enter
a protest AS a matter of fact, | be-
lieve that this purveyor to depraved
tastes and social poison, under the
guise of a play, has been here before
and nothing was done. The dates for
the appearance of shows can be readily

Aid the white Plague War.

To the Editor of the Evening Star.
The Newark nti-Tubereulosis As
sociat tion has worked hard to bring
about a cooperative spirit among
the people in its battle against
the white plague but the writer
thinks the response is very weak and
slow for a city so large as this. There
are many causes, and good ones, too
that Newarkers aid very generously
but here is one in which the benefit Is
one for every individual as we'll as the
unfortunates who are victims of the
dread disease.
The association, in lectures, exhibits,
etc, tries to teach each person the most
sanitary and healthful manner in
which to live. They instruct us as TO
the conditions of life which bring on
the malady and enable us to see the
personal as well as the public penefit
in living sanitarily. With points CT
information gained from the associa-
ton here in Newark the writer has
made several beneficial changes in his
mode of living and nearly every per-
son in Newark could do the same.
The work of the Anti-Tuberculosis
Association is well worth the recogni-
ton and cooperation 1t seeks from the
residents of this city, and ] hope TO
see it forthcoming. The writer, as one
interested in this worthy project,
wishes to thank the editor of the
EVENING STAR for the number OF
articles he has written on this subject.

A Garbage Nuisance.

Garbage Nuisance.
To the Editor OF the Evening star:
Knowing that the EVENING STAR
will champion any cause, big or little
that is just, wish to call your atten-
tion to the disgraceful manner used in
removing ashes and garbage from the
houses in Bergen street The men who
do this work pay not the slightest at
tenticn to the ashes that fly about the
street and on the porches of the houses
as they carelessly fling the boxes at the
wagons Very soften a part of the rub
bish will land on the street or the gut
ter instead of the wagon. When the
residents of Bergen street, where | live,
demonstrate with these garbage ven
doris not the slightest heed is paid TO
them. The complaints of the residents
are received with a laugh and often
times with an insult.
1t seems to me that the person or
company who is awarded the contract
of removing garbage by the Common
Council should at least see that the
Work Is properly uohe' - Soo" iNPit
mand by the boss would probably do
these refuse collectors more good than
all the scolding that we residents could
give them. The Common Council should
look into this matter and see that the
contractor makes his men do the work
properly. If no Improvement is made
over the present irregular state of af-
fairs the contract of the present man
shoulA be revoked by the Common
Council. A RESIDENT.

Ra.lmaker., Graft.
H. H.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Why do the railroads, seeking to IN
crease their already ample revenues,
base their claim to increased freight
rates almost wholly upon the moder-
ate increases If wages that have been
made? Why do they not direct atten-
ton to the fact that they are paying
$2S a ton for steel rails which they
know should be bought for at least
SO per cent less?
There are two reasons for this 81
lence as to the graft which the rail-
makers are permitted to practise upon
the roads. First, some railroad, men
have such an interest in the steel trust
that they have lost all sense of fidelity
to other interests. which they are en-
pIoyed to protect; second, the steel

While he didn't quite fly up to the
schedule which had been prepared for
him, Walter Brooklns's fight from
Chicago to Springfield proved to be
noteworthy enough to result in
couple of broken records and the cap
ture of the $4,000 prize. Illinois is vir-
gin territory so far as aviation is con-
cerned. It's people have read of the
successful flights on both coasts and
those negotiated as near as Ohio, where
the Wright brothers live. But when
they saw Brookns winging his way
through the azure yesterday. if such
a figure of speech can be applied to
wingless flying machine, most IL
linoisans saw an aeroplane in action
for the first time and were duly ex-
cited and entertained.
+ A Columbia professor told members
of the American Fisheries Society yes
terday that the natives of a small
town in Japan were manufacturing
high grade pearls, The process is known
to but few men. Perhaps diamonds
are being manufactured in the same
manner. Maybe baser metals are being
transmitted to gold and silver right
along. A man sufficiently well equipped
mentally to make such a discovery
would certainly know enough to keep
it to himself. The knowledge that a
certain precious stone or precious metal
was being manufactured in large guam
titles would cause it to fall off enor-
mously in value and completely de-
moralze the market for 1t.
Since the cadets at West Point began
to employ it this year, the silence
as a means of getting back has proved
very popular. The naval and military
cadets have been using it for years,
but it was never taken up by the gen.

that the "sllence" is not invoked with
more or less disastrous results. The

EARLY Closing for stores.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
1t would seem from present indica-
tions that the long hours of the depart
1t has been decided to close two of the
stores half hour earlier every day
except Saturday, and it is not unlikely
that the other stores will follow suit.
There has also been some talk of
CLOSING on Saturday nights, thereby CIV
ing the tired girls and men reasonable
hours. The large New York stores do
not keep open on Saturdays and there
is no reason why the Newark stores
should. 1t is up to the public to de-
termine whether they will give the de-
partment store employees their much
needed rest. All those interested in early
closing can. If they wish. do their shop
ping early in the day, thereby showing
the proprietors of the stores that 1t Is
not necessary for them to keep the

Colonel Snow used to tell this little

He had met Mr.. Crawford in Flor.

came TO Washington Colonel Snow was
the first person who showed him the
doors made by the novelist's father,
Thomas Crawford.
These are the senate bronze doors
on the eastern portico. They repre-
sent scenes connected with the Revo-
luton and the founding of the govern
ment.
