SCENES IN EUROPE
Many American Tourists Visit
Switzerland.
Land Of lnimitabIe Lakes and Peaks
and Mountains--Federal National
Exhibition to Be Held
at Berne in 1904.

Berne, Switzerland.-All roads lead
to Switzerland and to the border land
between Switzerland and other coun-
tries where there are mountains and
lakes and invigorating and curative
springs and baths. The lakes Of Kill
larney are fine and the mountains and
passes picturesque. The Welsh noun
tains are not to be ignored. The Eng
lish lake country, with it's Winder-
mere, Grassmere, Thirlmere, Rydal
water, Derwentwater, is enhancing.
Scotland, its mountains and lakes in
literature and in fact historic, poetic,
tragic, with their chain of castles from
Glasgow to Edinboro, the latter one OF
the most fascinating of cities, all in
vite the tourists eye, but there is only
one Switzerland, or, rather one Alpine
, land, for the lakes and the Alps were
so greatly insistent that they could not
confine themselves to the country of
the Swiss, but Tapped over into Ger
many and Austria and Italy, and east
ern France has the Jura mountains
which are ambitious foothills Of the
highest of the Alps.
For those who make stops at Lon.
don and Paris perhaps the best route
to Switzerland is to take car at the
Lyons station in Paris, whirl through
the great Burgundy and Chablis and
Champagne country and land at
Geneva. 1t is best to travel by day,
as the landscape is worth the seeing
and arriving at Geneva in the evening
one will, if one be wise, take hotel
rooms fronting on Geneva Lake, or
Lac Leman, to give it the French
name, and from a window or portico
the early sun will make such spec
tacle of Mont Blanc, the monarch OF
peaks, as can be seen at no other time

in Washington is said to have ex-

Basis of Good Manners.

The formation Of good manners is
unquestionably tact. And the founda-
ton of tact is consideration. To train
your child therefore, into the highest
culture of good manners begin early
to teach him consideration for others.
This will develop later into the very
finest kind of tact.

COLUMBIA PLAYERS
SCORE PRONOUNCED
HIT IN THE LILY
Pretentious Production Sets
High Standard for Plays
to Follow.

David Belasco's adaptation of "The
Lily" from the French of Pierre Wolff
and CASTOR Leroux. was well received
at Its first presentation In stock In this
city by the Columbia Players In their
fifth weeks Offering at the Columbia
Theater last night. The masterpiece
had it's initial performance In this city
with Julia Dean. former Columbia
Player, In the cast
The present cast at the Columbia but
adds laurels to those already won,
maintaining a high standard of excel
lence, though the play is different from
other stock presentations this year,
and sets An even higher mark for the
plays which will follow.
The scenes are laid in France and
the motif for the play is found in the
consequences which follow the efforts
OF the Compile De Maigny to deprive
his two daughters of the society OF
young people their own age. The
compte requires that Christine, as play
ed by Frances Nelson. and Odette,
which falls to Carrie Thacher. shall
think and act at his direction. Dra-
matte climaxes follow the efforts
of the compte, as able and force
fully given by George w. Barber. and
the irresistible craving OF youth for
love and companionship furnishes the
main love interest.
Georges Arnaud, the painter, Is played
by Edward Hass Robins In opposition
to Frances Nelson's Christine. Ahne
McDermott plays the part Of Lucie Polk
very prettily, and in involved in little
love story with the Vicompte De Maig-
ny. as taken by ]. Hammond Daley.
The PREDICTION Is beautifully staged
the first act of the four-act play being
set in an old park, once owned by the
monks, but now part of the estate OF
Georges Arnaud. The remaining acts
each filled with dramatic situations
take place in the living room of the
irrascible old Compte de Maigny.
The play is somewhat more difficult
for the stock players than those usual
ly given here, but the cast rises nobly
to the occasion and gives a high-class
performance. George Barbier's inter
probation of Count De Maigny was 9
| triumph for this sterling actor, while
Carrie Thatcher is given an opportunity
which was highly appreciated by the
audience last night.

SCORES A SUCCESS
AT NEW NATIONAL
.Weighty Comedian Delights
Audience in Howard's
Clever Comedy. !.

Frank Mcintyre met many old friends
and made new ones at the New Ma
tonal last evening when he rollicked
about the stage as the "dook" in
George Bronson Howard's clever COM
edy, "Snobs.' Mr.. Mcintyre is a fat,
joviai person on and off the stage, and
was a great laughter producer last
evening The mirth was occasioned
partly by the clever lines of the play
and again by the agility with which
Mr.. Mcintyre trucked his rotund form
about the stage.
In the first act one sees the comedian
as Henry Disney, the milkman. He is
suddenly left FIVE castles, eighteen
titles, about $40. 900, 900 in stage money,
