Froman Tells Story About Barrie

When Peter Pan" was first play
ed in Paris, writes Charles Froman
in the November Standard, I induced
j. NJ. Barrie to see his play acted be-
fore the French. When Mr. Barrie
entered his box he was obliged, in
according with the custom Of the
country, to yield france as tip to
the female usher, and another france
tip to the female who gave him a
program. Mr. Barrie's extreme shy
ness is In direct ratio to his fame.
He dislikes sitting in the box during
the whole performance, choosing
rather to go out at every available
opportunity and hide himself in
some Obscure corner of the build
ing. But each time he re-entered
his box he was greeted as stranger
by the omnipresent female usher ana
programme lady. The one was just
as determined to Mr.. Barrie to his
box again as the other was that he
should not enter 1t without pro-
gram. And 1t made just as little
difference to the one that the author
knew where his box was as 1t did
to the other that he did not need the
programme. Hence for each exit
and entrance of his box Mr.. Barrie
paid dearly in frances. In fairness
to the managers of the Paris theat-
ers, 1t ough to be said that they
would like exceedingly to do away
with the nuisance; but they are
powerless In the face of the tradi-
tionally-imposed governmental con-
troll and apparently never-diminish-
Ing supply Of the widows Of veterans

The Reformed Feudists.

OF Devil" Anse Hatfield, the famous
West Virginian and Kentucky feu-
dist, with uplifted hands swore to
forsake their career of lawnessness
and pledged themselves to live peace
full and Christian lives. Their father
prayed with them that the days Of
the HatfieId-McCoy feud be for
gotten and that his family would
never again have any more blood
shed.
Under ordinary circumstances,
Hatfield had almost enough sons to
continue a feud for years and still
have a few survivors left to avenge
the death of the more unfortunate
membes Of his family, and the de-
cission of the feudists to lead Chris
tian lives doubtless has created a
sensation" in the feud country.
The days of feuds are passing and
the time may come when all hot
blooded persons, with grievances.
will permit the law to punish those
who offend against them.

Good Looks and Love"

The story of an elopement, mar
riage in haste and repentance at
leasure was told in a courtroom OF
New York several days ago when O
young woman applied for the annul-
ment of her marriage to the son OF
a police lieutenant.
The girl told the Judge she and
her husband, from whom she would
be freed, were playmates. Two years
ago the young man hired an automo-
bile and they rode to Hoboken, where
they were married by justice OF
the peace. A week later the girl
confessed her marriage to hex mother
and after the confession. the young
man made his home with his brides
parents.
The young wife wanted spending
money, but her husbands pockets
were always empty. This was when
their first real misunderstanding
occurred The young man, after
being scolded by his wife's parents,
found employment as bellboy in one
of the large New York hotels
His secret marriage became
known to the other bellboys and they
made so much fun of him, he gave
up his position and sought work as
a street car conductor. This work
was entirely too hard for him, but
when he returned to his parents-in-
law and applied for permission tc
make his home with them again, his
request was refused
The bride told the judge her hus.
band thought he could live through
life ION his good looks and love,
but she no longer agrees with him
There are thousands of young
men, who believe their good looks

Frmo Tarrytown, N. r., comes a
pleasant tale of mosquitoes which
get on gasoline jags and then ex-
plode, to the terror of the inhab-

Bradley is mentioned as having been
badly burned by fire in his mattress

full of gasoline. which came too near
while Mr.. Brady was filling his pipe
and exploded. This Is about the
meanest thing the mosquito has done
yet When we had all thought We

that the mosquitoes are trying to be-

Our Laws,


Edwin r. Keedy, member of the
Northwestern Law School faculty,
declared recently In an address be-
fore the Legal Club of Chicago that
the unsatisfactory results in our
courts is due largely to the fact that
our procedure practice, embodyine
many delays, gives the prisoner an
undue advantage. He advocated
court proceedings like the English
use and as proof of its superiority
he cited the Crippen case. comparing
1t with several trials in the United
States, noted for the length of time
required to reach a verdict. Who Is
responsible for this condition? The
people do not make the laws" this
important function being left almost
entirely to lawyers. Mr.. Keedy's
suggestion probably will not meet
with the approval of the "profes.
sion," for the existence Of many OF
the members greatly depend upor
our laws, and especially those that
authorize long delays.

The attempt to punish the Coats
Vile lynchers having been practical
ly abandoned by the State of Penn

civilization of Pennsylvania "a thin
veneer laid upon primeval savagry?"
Considering the fact that the crime
of the Coatsville mob was plotted
by American-born citizens, educated
in the public schools and that it has
been protected and condoned by the
good citizens" of the place on the
ground that complete exposure of
the facts would hurt the town
1t would seem that something besides
'primeval savagery" entered into the
case.
Perhaps, after all, this habit OF
making holiday bonfires of living
men and snarching their buttons
and charred bones for souvenirs is
not strictly 'barbarous."
The red men of the woods managed
these matters with far more decorum
and in spirit of religious solemnity
They did not wear masks at the
blood rite, nor form a social con-
spiracy of perjury to conceal their
deed.
