EURIPIDES PLAY GIVEN
ON COLUMBIA CAMPUS.

NEW YORK, July 27.-The "Elec-
ira" of Euripides. as translated into
English verse by Gilbert Murray, was
played in Columbia University campus
grove last night. The acting of Mr..
and Mrs. Charles Douville Coburn was
exceptionally fine.
This play was produced first in Az
or Ala B. C. The plot is full of tragic
situations. Clytemnestra, mother Of
Electra and Orestes, murders her hus-
band, Agamemnon, and becomes the
wife of Aggisthus. BY the decree of
that unholy couple Electra is forced
into marriage to a peasant. Orestes
escapes death by exile. With the pas
sage of years the ill-starred brother
and sister dream of vengeance ,Orestes,
wandering with Pylades, a friend, ulti-
mately discovers Electra. Their hate,
because Of the wrongs suffered, leads
them to murder their mother and STEP
father. Despite the sanction of that
deed by the Delphic Oracle, the gods
decreed Orestes should ever be a wan
derer. Electra, welded to Pylades,
seeks respite from a shattered life In
distant lands.

Relative Values of Cows and Me-
at WASHINGTON


xuT HEN an epidemic of foot and mouth disease broke Ut among Amen-
w can beef cattle a few years ago the United States department OF
" agriculture mustered an army Of 200 experts, with HALF A MILLION
DOLLARS CASH in their pockets, to fight it.
Every herd in the suspected territory a inspected.
Every cr that had carried stock for a month was examined.
The flesh of every animal slaughtered in the United States vas put under
the microscope
In six weeks the disease had been traced to its sourcea stamped out!
Hurrah for the agricultural department!
Great work!
About the I'M time an epidemic of yellow fever broke ut in New
Orleans.
The public health and marine hospital servce-which looks after our
healh-was able to mustera n army of SEVENTEEN experts!
BY skimping on regular expenses it managed to spare all of TWO THOU
SAND, FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS to combat the disease!
The epidemic lasted six months and was finally stamped out by natures
Heneny-frost.
Now the health and lives of people are again menaced, this time by
choera. Again the public health and marine hospital service, by pinching and
scrapng and neglecing routine duties, musters a handful of men and a pit
lance of mo0ey.
Congress appropiates the funds for both the agricultural department and
the public health and marine hospital service.
One saves PROPERTY-worth eve cents a pound-and gets millions.
The other saves HUMAN LIFE-which is cheap-and gets hundreds.

HEAT IN SUBWAY DUE
TO ELECTRIC POWER.

NEW YORK, July 27.-The Inter
borough has told the public why US
tubes are SO insufferably hot in the
summer time. The thousands who have
sweltered and been half-suffocatsI in
subway trains will be interested 10
learn that the subway is really one
great electrical heater" according tc
the PETERBOROUGH Bulletin. The power
house uses 1000 tons of coal to de-
veiop lao, o0o. 900 horsepower. and more
than 80 per cent of the electrical
energy is converted into heat whea
utilized in the operation of trains.
The Interborough says the "peeL. ar
features (of the heater) possess desir-
able advantages in all the seasons OF
the year except the summer" Che
Bulletin says partitions between the
tracks are a physical iinpossibility,
and that probably these would not
make the cavern any cooler. anyhow.

FAST YACHT Rifles
WALL STREET MEN
Borden's Speedy Craft Beats
Commuters to Drawbridge,
Making Them Wait.

NEW YORK, July 2L-Matthew
Chaloner Durfee Borden, sometimes
called the cotton print king of Amer
lea, has a steam yacht, supposed to be
the fastest craft of its size on the At
lantic seaboard, and all the Jersey
Central Railroad commuters between
Sea Girt and Atlantic Highlands know
all about 1t.
1t was only three weeks ago that the
Sovereign, as Commodore Borden's
yacht is named, made her appearance
on the Shrewsbury river. She put up
a little more than her guaranteed speed
of thirty-five miles an hour and raced
the Wall street train to the draw
bridge between THE Spit" and Attain
tic Highlands at Naveslnk.
Many pairs of admiring eyes were
fixed on the Sovereign as she cut a
clean swath in the water and beat the
train to the ~drawbridge, which lifted
and let her through while the train
waited. The commuters tool advan-
tage of the wait to admire the lines of
the speedy craft as she went through
the draw. BY the time their delayed
train for Cedar street could get under
way the Sovereign was a speck between
Sandy Hook and the Singer building.
Officers of the Jersey Central Rail-
road boats said today that their steam
ers ran so close to schedule hat 1t was
impossible for them to make up time
if delayed leaving Atlantic Highlands.
They admitted that the Borden boat
was more than a match for their YES
sells and for the ordinary suburban
train. They laughed, however, at the
idea hat Commodore Borden passed
through the draw just before the boat
trains with any humorous intent. They
said they regarded the episodes of the
last few weeks as mere condolences.
This view of the matter has not com
pletely satisfied the commuters, how
ever. Many of them have missed APP
pointments because of delays at the
~drawbridge.

DEMocRATs AdAINsT GENERALIZATION.

TT T is not singular that the Walsh commission act, which was
passed by the Legislature last winter at the solicitation of the
Governor, should be extremely unpopular in Democratic mu-
inequalities, while apparently having popularity in those that are
Republican. Capitalization in government has ever been opposed
by the Democratic party, while it has been as consistently upheld
by Republicans. The Did Bumsted charter for Jersey City, passed
by a Republican Legislature, went much further than the scheme
of government under the Walsh act. The commission was named
by the Legislature. The Democratic party denounced the Bumsted
charter, as it consistently did all attempts by Republican legislation
to unduly centralize power in government in this State. 1t has
stood out against judgemade grand juries and against comforting
arbitrary power of removal upon the executive, such as proposed
during the last Republican administration at Trenton. There are
always plausible reasons to give for centrahzing the powers Of
government. and citizens who become Indifferent to their public
duties and permit misgovernment are apt to believe that centraliza-
ton is a short cut back to better government, that it saves them
the time and effort they begrudge. But the Democratic instinct,
as well as principle, s ever opposed to such ideals. They may
prevail in a State or community Enthusiastically Republican, but
not in a Democratic one, as the results of the recent Walsh act
elections in cities of the State show.

TIE PRESIDENTS DEFENsE or us COURsE.

y RESIDENT TAFTs message to the Senate on the subject
of Controller bay explains the Presidents acts leading up
to his order eliminating 1880 acres at the bay and leaving
the land open to the exploitation of the interests represented by
Richard S. Ryan, the promoter. Mr.. Taft assumes all the RESPONSE
biity for this elimination. He says that he proposed it. And he
defends his act on the ground of public policy. The President
denies that there can be a monopoly of Controller bay unless, in
deed, the Ryan interests should sell out to the Guggenheim-Morgan
interests, which he assumes to be quite unlikely. He accepts as
true Ryan's assurance that he has no connection with these Wall
Street interests, and that statement may be perfectly correct on its
face. But the puzzle of the statement is why Wall Street interests,
with such an immense stake in Alaska, should sit supine and per-
nit others to secure control of Alaskas gateway. Those interests
are not letting anything as big as that get away from them.
What MI. Taft says in his message does not dispose of the charges
that Ballnger and Ryan were really acting in behalf of the Gug
genheim Morgan group, nor do the denials by these men convince
the public that the "DicktoDick" letter was a fabrication. There
was no motive for the woman who copied that letter, or postscript
to invent a falsehood, while there is strong motive for the denias
which may safely be made, since the letter has disappeared from
the departmental files, even as did the official voucher in the dc
partment of state. But the American people will judge for them
selves whether there is danger of a private monopoly of Controller
bay.

Praises Shade Tree Commission.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Writers to this column are so apt to
criticise public officials in every walk
of municipal activity and authority
that 1 am glad of the opportunity to
throw a bouquet instead of a brick.
The particular department of munic-
ipaI activity to which l wish to throw
a bouquet just now is the Shade Tree
Commission. l do not know whether
the men comprising it are paid for
their services or not. But 1 do know.
this: The work done by the active en-
ployees in this department is excellent
ly done. l had occasion recently to
watch them, busy with repairing the
damage done by one of the heavy mid
summer storms that brought trees
down to the ground by the dozen and
tore and twisted innumerable branches
from trees thai had withstood many a
storm of previous years
The men assigned to repair the dam
age worked with intelligence and skill,
and the net result is hat today the
shade trees of Newark, as a whole,
are in better shape than they ever were
before. DICK.

Charge. Neglect of Sanitation.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Now hat the cholera Is almost at our
doors, why does the Board of Health
still neglect to enforce the law which
compels storekeepers to keep all kinds
of food, especially fruits, under cover?
l walked through the market and down
through the lower part of the city one
day last week and noticed how water
melon n other fruits were exposed
for sale in slices by the fruit vendors
without any covering to keep the flies
off. Swarms of flies were feeding on
the uncovered fruit and open garbage
cans were standing near the stands.
l noticed how the flies made several
trips from the garbage cans to the
fruit. Imagine how quickly cholera
would spread with these flies deposit
ing the germs on our food. C. H.

NV EW YORK harbor is now quarantined against by foreign
aNW ports on account of the cholera cases that developed in the
city. The effect is injurious to commercial interests, but if
the cholera scare goes no further than that New York city and the
country generally will be fortunate. A serious outbreak of the
cholera in the metropolis would cause other American cities to
quarantine against it, and the scare would extend from city to
city. In the Southwest the prevalence of yellow fever led to the
establishment of shotgun guarantees, and in some sections the
total cessation of railroad travel. Trains were not permitted to
stop at stations. A cholera panic would be quite as unreasonable
in the North. But the quarantine authorities now have the sit
uation well n hand and there is no public apprehension that the
scholera will get away from quarantine except in a few sporadic
cases that can be watched and controlled.

nenInrnhIe cnnre.tinn.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
Allow me a few lines in which to ex-
press my pleasure at your expose of
the conditions in the State Hospital
for the Insane at Morris Plains.
What your reporter says about CON
gested conditions there is only too
true, and the possibilities in case of a
fire or panic are awful to contemplate.
But, while the conditions are such as
to cause alarm among the friends of
these unfortunates, it is equally true
that there are other institutions. some
of them in this city and county. where
precautions are necessary. l do not
desire to call attention just now to any
particular institution. but if wide
awake readers of the Evening STAR
will stop to think they may readily
recall one or more of them.
Congestion in institutions is as bad.
If not worse, than congestion in cities.

WV the Atlantic County Court will be kept busy for some
time with the trials of the accused men, who include the
county sheriff, the acting mayor of Atlantic City, the building in
spector, a member of the Atlantic City Board of Health and a
clerk in the comptrolers Office, all Republicans. Whatever may
be the evidence against the indicted men, it may prove much more
difficult to secure trial juries to convict than it was to impanel a
grand jury to indct. One man can chang" a jury in a trial. The
subsequent proceedings in the Atlantic county prosecutions will,
therefore, not be without great interest.

Want. estone. Ritulithic.


To the Editor of the Evening Star:
A member of the committee sent to
Boston to investigate smooth pavement
there told me that he tried to drive a
big screwdriver into the bitulithic pave
ment on one of Boston's streets IN a
hot day and that the operation was
like drilling stone. I venture to say
that II he had tried the same thing
on Central avenue he would have found
the operation more like cutting Swiss
cheese.
1t is to be hoped that when the Board
of Works paves Market street 1t will
be careful to specify, and OBTAIN,
the stone kind, and not the cheese
kind. of bitulithic pavement. It's only
a difference in quality, and if Boston
gets it, it's not too good for Newark.
