More Imperial Troops Now Join
 The Republicans
(SpeciaI from United Press.l

Tien Tsin, Jan. "A regiment of inn perial troops stationed at Lan Chow, capital of the province of Kaming Su, Joined the Republicans, today, and rumors are heard that practically the entire imperial army in that section will follow their example.
 This is taken as sign that the -disintegration of the Manchu dynasty Is inevitable. The army in Kiang Su, one of the northern provinces. has always been more loyal to the throne and it will be in a position to cooper ate well with the Republicans of the South should they decide to do so.
 dissatisfaction has been spreading among the troops in all the northern provinces because of the inability of the government to pay them for their services. Agents of the republicans have been working among the sol diers, promising them regular pay if they would join the rebels.
 Should the spirit of revolt extend northeast, the escape of the royal family from Pekin will be almost completely cut off except from the coast.

De AngeIis in
 The 'IPearI Maiden''

Jefferson De Angelis and a fairly competent supporting company ap- peared at The Park yesterday after noon and evening in the new musical play, "The Pearl Maiden" Good sized audiences seemingly enjoyed the production, which Is replete with catchy airs and pretty numbers. One of the best pony pallets that this city ever enjoyed looking at is the fea- ture of the show.
 The music throughout is tunefuI. The story is a tale of the South Sea. Islands. MT. De Angelis appears to be a trifie fat, for hts movements last night were not those of other days when his every gesture was one that had a laugh at the end of it. The dialogue is rather weak.
 The chorus is pretty and sings fairly well. Perhaps when the performers become more seasoned the production will go more smoothly. The first act, however, was sadly lacking in ginger, and for a time it seemed as if the players would never get into the swing of things. The second act was de- cided improvement, and the final act satisfied. The production, however, will need to have something's done to it and some new faces required before it can depend upon 8 profitable run in the tEg burg whither it is destined.
 Joe Weber was among those who looked the show over

F. OF L.. OFFICIALS
 SAY FLAG INCIDENT HAS BEEN DISTORTED
Labor Leaders Only Guilty of Innocent ViO' 'atiOn of Federal Statute, PreScr ping Respect For National Emblem
Special from United Press.)


 Washington, Jan 2-An innocent scritfng respect for the flag, which has been "distoTted'' into an issue by enemies of organized labor was the way Federation of Labor officials to- day explained the report that the War Department had been furnished with photographs and proofs of an occasion in Oakland, Cal, when President Sam uel Gompers and other leaders tram pied on the American flag
 According to officials here, the story is an old one. It was explained that the flag was draped over a table in a hall in Oakland which stood on a platform and behind which Gompers to speak, it was stated here, the audi ence demanded a better look at him and, in a moment of enthusiasm, Com pers climbed tosthe table top. John A. Kelly, president of the Trades Council of San Francisco, who follow ed Gompers in an address, did the same thing.
 Labor officials here admitted that they were advised that the War De- partment was Investigating two alleg- ed cases of Insult to the fiag-the Oak land incident and another which oc- cured at New York, in the parade, last Labor Day.
 At Federation headquarters, it was stated that a moving picture concern took a number of views of the flag being dragged along the street and later labor leaders heard that the War Department had been furnished with the pictures.
 at the War Department, admitted that he had received pictures alleged to show an insult to the flag, but declin- ed to discuss the matter.

unnecessary chatter. Coherency and simplicity of dialogue, coupled with clearness of sdiction and speed on the part of the characters concerned, is a 75 per cent. asset in play production.
 Many a good play fails to score be- cause of the ambiguity of it's dia- logue, the indefiEfteness of it's plot. and last, but by no means least, the failure of the actor to realize the worth of his lines and the inestima ble value that clear enunciation brings to them
 IT an aulnor can overcome all tnese | conditions he is to be congratulated- Then, if his play has a punch in it, the battle is as good as won, but lets make sure of one thing:
 Put the punch over in the first act. .

PEACE ON EARTH.

It came upon the midnight clear That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth, To touch their harps Of gold Peace on the earth, good will to mem From heavens all-gracious King; The world in solemn stiffness lay To hear the angels sing. Still through the eleven skies they
 come.
 With peaceful wings unfurled. And still their heavenly music floats Ger the weary world. Above its sad and lowIy plains They bend on lowering wing. And ever OCT it's Babel sounds The blessed angels sing. Yet, with the woes of sin and strife. The world has suffered long. Beneath the angel-strain have rolled Two thousand years of wrong; And man, at war with man, hears net The love-song which they bring O hush the noise, ye men Of strife, And hear the angels singl And ye, beneath life's crushing load, Whose forms are bending low, Who toll along the climbing way. With painful steps and slow Look now, for glad and golden hour9 Come swiftly on the wing; O rest beside the weary road
 And hear the angels singi For To, the days are l1astening on. By prophet-bards foretold. When with the eveF-circling years, Comes round the age Of gold; When peace shall over all the earth Its ancient splendor fling, And the whole world send back tho
 song
 Which now the angels sing.
