l." Brothel PLAYS"

The two plays under consideration by the police
are not salacious. They repulsive to many but
that quality may be wholesome If II serves 10
recting it, The important question to be considered
in Judging them is, therefore, 10 what extent are
they true to the facts; in how far do they depict
real conditions? One of them tells the story OF a
working girl lured into brothel but, having gone
thus far 1t lodges the issue by melOdramatic means
For the real end Of white slavery" is not, was
pointed out In The Tribune the morning after the
first performance, timely rescue and happy mar
rage but a hospital cot and Potter's Field.
Having made a beginning, the author lacked the
courage TO 90 on to the horrible end. The other
play is In Its second act merely dramatization Of
city on the Continent Of Europe these last fifty
years and more. How old It is none can tell 1t
does not follow that the wide spread and antiquity
of the repulsive anecdote prove its truth. They
merely prove the migratory power Of anecdotes,
good and bad, their Longevity and the ease with
which they can be adapted to new environments
and attached to new names, though these are never
obtainable when inquiries are pressed.
II the drama like fiction must cease TO be art,
and claims the right to take all life for its subject
let Il at least be true to itself and to the facts. IL
II must deal with prostitution, let 1t at least be
instead of twisting It into punches" with happy
endings II lacks the courage to do this; therefore
Il invites the charge Of commercalism.

The Oueerest Place in the World.

All the world is queer-ourselves and our readers
excluded--but it certainly that the queereSt
place IN the world is Coaticook, Canada.
Why In the name Of all that is reasonable should
Canadian town arise to guard, protect and defend
Harry Thaw? Here in New York we know about
him. We have seen what his insanity did in the
past and have the word of experts ms TO what 1t
will do in the future. We may be pardoned for
having strong opinions with respect to him. hut
why should Coaticook have any view one way or
the other?
Judging by the dispatches this port of entry of
Canada has developed heat over the Thaw case
that would do credit to the gallery Of n melodrama.
The townsfolk cheer Harry the hero. They hiss the
villain Jerome.
The next time our friends and neighbors make
of themselves let US remember Coaticook'
Canada, and be cheered.

no terrors for him. What If the British government
was driven to a cat-and-mouse law to circumvent

stream of his oratory and the visitor would see that
America-at least New York County-was no place

School Room Provision.

The ingenious scheme which has been recalled by
the school authorities may TO certain degree les
sen the evil of exclusion from school for lack Of
room at the cost of engthening the school day. 1t
will not and should not be a satisfactory permanent
settlement OF the seating problem, nor indeed, any
thing more than any emergency makeshift.
A suggestive light is thrown upon the problem by
the current observation that while seating room is
now too scanty there are enough new buildings
now under construction to provide room for all when
they are finished two years hence. But that will be
no improvement, for the seating room then will be
merely sufficient for the school population now.
Meantime there will be large increase in the num-

The Mayors Anti Tammanyism.

The Gaynor managers tangling themselves up
trying to prove that the Mayor is the only original
Observation-Disclosures anti-Tammany man hereabouts
and the natural leader in a crusade against Tam
many disagreement. They put out on Sunday a
letter written by Mr.. Gaynor on September 3
twelve days after he had been turned down by the
Murphy Council of Eighth which he said: "Of
course ! very well knew that they would not re-
nominate me and told everybody so, and yet during
the same time some newspapers were libelling me
by cartoon and otherwise as in alliance with those
people"
Yesterday an interview with Jacob A. Cantor, the
originator of the Gaynor boom for the Democratic
Presidential nomination, Issued in which Mr..
Cantor said that the Mayor asked him about a
month ago-just two weeks before the Murphy axe
fell-what he thought Of the probability Of Tam

opjnion there was no probability at all and ex
r1ained why whereupon the great "antiTammany'
leader remarked well, if that is the case, shall

way of doing things'-that is, Of Withholding re-

Conserving the Calves.

Nothing less than genius dictated the plan OF
Representative Britten Of Illinois, for reducing the
high cost Of living That plan embodied in a bill
Just introduced would prevent the killing of calves
and shipment in interstate commerce of beef cattle
killed under two years Of age In 1911, Mr. Brtten
declares 100000 calves slaughtered which, II
allowed to round ont their infancy into maturity
would have furnished II 2OOOO00O0 pounds of beef
10 a hungry world.
II Is all so simple this serious problem when
attacked by a genius. Obviously. when the world
IS deluged with beef It will cost less. Only one
triflng flaw In this otherwise perfect scheme APP
pears. The bill should also prevent the eating OF
shad roe and caviar. and the eating Of the eggs OF
hen, duck, goose or other fowl wild or tame. Then
the world could be of endless supply OF food
varied enough to make out course dinner and
cheap enough even for the poorest

A Week of Diversified Science in England.

At the series OF meetings of British scientists
beginning to morrow in Birmingham wide variety
of topics will be discussed. Among them the
high cost of vine-of great practical interest-and
the highly theoretical question of the ether, its
nature and reality.
Shrewd tests have been made to show the exist
ence of ether by measuring any possible resistance
TO or friction with bodies moving through space;
hut SO far with no result. The assumption that
there is such thing is based the belief that light
cannot be transmitted from the to the earth
without some medium. The finding of form OF
radiation, used by Marconi for teegraphy, though
not proof strengthens faith in the existence OF

Public or Private Part in the Fair.

The British and German governments have cause
for reconsdering their refusal to take part in the
Panama Pacific Exposition There are widespread
and increasing protests in those countries against
such abstention. There are numerous indications
that important individuals and corporations will
participate in the affair; of them all the more
largely because OF the governmental refusal There
are emphatic charges that the governments assumed
their unfavOrabe attitude without reasonable DELHI

1t certainly seemed unreasonable for those gov
ernments to announce offlland that there was no
desire nor inclination for participation in the expoS
ton when they had taken no effective steps for
ascertaning industrial commercial and popular sen
timent 1t seems all the more unreasonable now
that so many authoritative expressions are made OF
desire to participate. There Is 10 use In saying
that the nations are tired Of fairs. when 50 many
are showing keen interest in this one. There Is no
use in saying that it would not pay to take part III

ready to send large exhibits at their own expense

There is already assurance that Great Britain

room for hoping that there will be official repre-
sentation of those countries on an adequate scale

other days when its influence was too steadily cast
