ARE PRISONERS OF WAR.
Status Of Americans Captured at Casas

CHIHUAHUA, Mexico. April ~, via
Laredo. TeX.-Perhaps the most unique
scene ever Witnessed within n Mexican
prison occurred this afternoon when
Vice Consul Leonard distributed TO
American prisoners In the penitentiary
the supplies which had been contributed
by American residents here.
The leniency with which the govern
ment is treating the prisoners is sur
prise to the officials, The men are not
to be held incommunlcado. but are to
be allowed to have daily exercise in the
peniteutiary patio.
When Mr.. Leonard. with his arms
loaded with supplies of clothing. food
and tobacco, entered, the prisoners We're
taken out OF their cells which In tiers
enclose the patio, and were lined up un-
der guard. The eagerness OF the Amerl-
cans TO obtain clothing was intense.
For weeks they had been CARRIED in
rags, with their shoes worn out by the
long march from Casas Gran6es. Soap,
matches. combs and toothbrushes were
the first choice when the roll was called.
The sudden appearance of so much lux
ury occasioned much interest among the
native Mexican prisoners. who peered
wistfully ont of their cells, unable to
share in the distribution.
Each American was provided with a
complete suit OF clothes. shoes and a
bundle containing soap. towels and to-
bacco, Each also was given sum Of
money. The status OF the Americans
was formally fixed I'm the penitentlary
today prisoners Of war Under this
form they may be held pending further

Has Good Word for Actor-Managers, the Principal
Producers Of Shakespeare

"Tbese plays were written for
ceptional ability. The saving from

thing is often wrongly implied.
The play is not the thing. Of itself;
the play, properly acted, is the
thing; the play badly acted is
tiresome. A manager once boasted;
we have no stars in our theater

piled, THAT is evident
''The star system is open TO
criticism. certainly, that Is, the
system Of placing actors in the
position OF playing n leading part
for the several seasons merely to
have peg TO hang a play on, But
the advent of a star requires no
herald. Seldom, however, do they
emerge like Garrick, in a day;
but they are more often born than
made. and the light they shed is the
most Illuminating thing in the thea
ter.
'The theater is the place for act
ing plays; plays can he read in the
study. II is a remarkable thing
that from Richard Burbage to Mr..
Tree and Mr.. Forbes Robertson.
the plays of Shakespeare and the
noblcr drama have almost without
exception beer presented TO the
public by actormanagers. This is
curious fact. for it is generally
admitted that there arc two things
acting cannot do: they
