Mrs. Webb Howell has new cement
walks on her lawn, gracefully winding
around the galleries of her home. She
has planted red nasturtum to climb
upon her gallery ratings, and she will
also have beds of bright red verbena

her sidewalk will be pergola covered

Record Passenger List
Sails for Coronation

NEW YORK. March ao.-The steam
ship George Washington, of the North
German Lloyd, sailed from New York
today with the record number of pas
sengers for the year, 271O. Every frsr,
second, and third class room and the
steerage and some of the officers looms
were taken by the passengers. She
also carried large cargo.
The trip Of the George Washington
with so large a passenger list is regard
ed as showing an unusually early travel
season. Many of the passengers are
prominent members of society and their
early migration TO Europe is probably
due in large part to their desire to
participate in the festivities incident to
the coronation of King George in June.
Capt. P Victim is in command Of the
George Washington for the last time
this trip. as he has been promoted 20
an inspectorship. On his last voyage
westward he brought over record
number Of passengers. 2,l43, and landed

gagement.

ILL.," and LAS You Like It.
In six days he presents eight dramas
all but one Shakespearean-and does
not repeat himself during that time.
Still. these are but a few of the titles
Included in his repertoire.
The memorizing of the actual words
of the roles, the learning of cues and
the work necessary to inculcate the idea
of continuity in the part is a task in
itself, to say nothing of the interpreta-
ton and intelligent rendition of the
lines. Yet this is what Mantell has ac-
complished.
Adding to the interest of the Mantell
eLgs cement is the fact that Mr.. Mantell
will on Thursday night appear as Iago,
in 'Othello." a role he has not been
playing for some years, and that Charles
for the role of the Jealous Moor. The
following is the arrangement of plays
ror the week:
Monday evening-"King Lear"
Tuesday evening-"Hamlet."
Wednesday -4natinee-"As You Like
It."

Reciprocity Is Opposed
By Bankers In Ottawa

OTTAWA, March 29.-Strong opposi
ton 70 the passage of the reciprocity
agreement with the United States has
developed here. largely because Of the
attitude taken by the Manufacturers
Association Of Canada. The finances of
Canada are controlled by five or six
mammoth banking corporations, and
they have materially aided in the estab-
lishment of the manufactures. For this
reason they oppose freer trade on agri-
cultural implements

be taken on the reciprocity agreement,
1t must be taken soon, for the Canadian
parliament is supposed to adjourn the
