CAPITAL CHINESE
CELEBRATE BIRTH
OF NEW REPUBLIC
Elaborate Banquets Will Be
Held This Afternoon and
Tonight.

The passing of the Mafchu dynasty
and the birth Of a republican form Of
government, the kind which drew hum
dreds Of thousands Of their fellow
countrymen to this country to become
part OF It, Is being celebrated in
Washington's Chinatown today.
This afternoon the celebration will
take on formal aspect, and a greater
number of Celestials than has been
seen here for months will partake in a
banquet, more elaborate In its nature,
than the> Chinese New Year celebra-
tions.
At 314 Pennsylvania avenue, the head
quarters of Yuen Honk Low, and at
3I7 Pennsylvania avenue, where the
representatives of Hong Far Low have
their headquarters, two long banquet
tables, resembling in every respect
those used by their American associ-
ates, have been constructed. At
O. oclock this afternoon. just as many
Chinese as can be seated about them
will take their places, and the tubila-
tion which is being observed through
out the world, wherever an enemy OF
the Manchus can be found, Will be
evident here. A second banquet Will
be held at II o'clock tonight.

Sothern and MarloWe
Have Extra Matinee

When e. H. Sothern and Julia Mar
lowe appear at the Belasco Theater the
week beginning February IL. they will
present their entire repertoire Of seven
plays. Contrary to their usual custom,
Sothern and Marlowe will this year
give eight performances during their
week here, by adding a Wednesday
matinee. The repertoire will be as fol-
lows:
Monday night, Tanning of the
Shrew:" Tuesday night, Macbeth" !"
Wednesday matinee, Romeo and
chant OF Venice Thursday night,
Twelfth Night" Friday night, Ham
let;" Saturday matinee, "As You Like
IT." Saturday night, Macbeth"
1t will be seen by the above that
Macbeth" Is the only play Of the reper-
toire which will be given more than
one performance, and that there Is an
even balance between comedy and trag-
edy--a comedy one night, tragedy the
next. This plan. new to this season,
has been found particularly acceptable
to theatergoers. Not only this. but In
former times IL was Sothern and Mar
loves custom to begin their engagement
with a tragedy. This season they have
opened in all the important cities with
"The Tanning of the Shrew.'
The management has arranged to file
mail orders I'm the order OF their re-
ceipt, so that theatergoers may be able
to secure the seats they desire without
waiting in line at the box office.

DOLLAR DIPLOMACY HERE TO STAY
AND UNITED STATES PROUD Of It

mcnt tn following figures are given:
In 1910 there was expended S3.loO,-
92} for maintenance OF foreign s'r,-
ice. There was received i'm actual
cash, however, $LG5LN92. making the
net cost OF the department only 81
94oO3o. Most of the cash was re
ceived through consular and pass
port fees. In other words, the state
department costs the nation only
about one-fourth as much as a first
class dreadnought No more elo-
quent plea for the limitation of arm
aments could be devised.
The state department collected
debts for American citizens, against
foreign governments, to the extent
of $2I15.OOO in 1910 Among thesf
wa. the famous Alsop claim against
Chile. This debt was entirely just
and valid, yet Chile for years lodged
payments until Secretary Knox made
representations which could not he
ignored
Only one thing remains to he done
fer the thorough eQujpmint of our
diplomats. That is the erection or
purchase of embassies in leading Eu-
ropean capitals. This done We can
throw our millionaire diplomats ont
of the back stairs window, and give
men short Of dollars, but long OF
brains, a better chance The state
department is out OF its swaddling
clothes and far beyond the period
where its choicest berths were polit-
ical prizes.
