Hartford, Conn.,, March 7--"What

Mrs. Truman J. Spencer in an address

yesterday afternoon, ARE intelligence
to run the household with business
methods; sympathy and understand
ing in their husbands ambitions and
aims; a consideration of the tastes
and individualities of their husbands,
but very especially a willingness to
bear children. This latter means the
right attitude toward sex relationship
for both men and women, because
successful wife is more than good

they are too apt to make tragedies of
spoiled carpets or scratched furniture
and to forget that order in itself is
not virtue, but merely a means to-

his own fortunes, his wife often has
the building contract, is true of both

Tin THE THEATRES


Fresh from his three years triumph
in THE Witching Hour John Mason
comes to the Park theatre for matinee
and night, Saturday, March 18th, in
a new play by the author Of the one
hrst mentioned. Augustus Thomas.
The new play is entitled "As a Man
Thinks and 1t Is said to sound a.
deeper note and to be builded upon a
more important idea than was 1.-The
Witching Hour LAS a Man Thinks
represents an attempt on Mr.. Thomas
part to show the IRENE dous influ-
ence which Jewish civilization and
the ideals Of the Jewish religion have
had on modern civilization, more par
ticularly upon American civilization.
To accomplish this purpose he has
projected upon the stage new type
of stage Jew-a Jew representative of
the highest virtue and noblest char
acter that devotion to the spirit of
the old law, if not it's letter, can pro-
duce. This Jew is a physician,
man of broad culture and deep perfe-
trating insight into the secrets of the
human heart. Mr.. Thomas developes
the thought that our modern insis-
tence upon the absolute and unques-
toned chastity and purity of the wife
as being essential to the maintain
ance of social order is a direct inher
itance from the old Jewish law under
which an adulterous wife was stoned
to death while the punishment meted
out to an adulterous husband was not
SO severe. DR.. Selling, the Jewish
physician, is the medium through
whom this thought is developed and
projected. The story, swift and NOV
ing in and surcharged with action,
concerns itself with the marital diff
ference between a Gentle husband
and wife and their settlement by their
Jewish friend. Mr. Mason is sa to
have a role which calls into play all
those qualities of authority, distinc-
ton and repose for which is SO just
ly admired. He is supported by

more prominenet members are Vim

WIDE SEARCH FOR
MISSING 100000
Aged Broker, Who Was Robbed
Unable to Describe His
Assailant
Especial from United Press.)


New York, March THE search for
the missing 100000 worth of securities
stolen from aged Aaron Bancroft
broker and financier, by means of the
phoney envelope game, was pushed
to every big city in this country by
tn epolice and private detectives, to-
day. Deputy Commissioner Flynn in
charge of the detective bureau, de-
tailed a dozen of his best men to the
work of running down the thieves. He
said that there was little doubt,
which the robbery was perpetrated,
that the thieves had made arrange
ments in advance for dispos;ng of the
loot. He intimated that they would
probably try to sell the missing secur-
tiles in some city far enough away
from New York so that they could
not be quickly traced.
Bancroft examined the Rogue's Cal
lery at headquarters and also of the
private detective agencies but failed
to see anyone there who remotely re-
the corridor of the safe deposit COM
pany just before the envelopes were
switched. The old man is very feeble
and his sight dim SO that he has not
been able to give any adequate des-
cription of the man who is believed
to have annexed the securities.
President Jarvis, of the Consolidat-
ed Exchange, said the probable way
the thief would try to get rid of the
stolen goods would be to have crook
ed loan brokers deposit them with
some interior banks as security for q
loan. The certificates then might be
retained by the bank for a long time
without anyone there realizing that
they had been stolen
