STORIES AND THE DRAMA.
Harder Work to Write Novel Than to
Construct > Play.

One reason why a play is easier to
write than novel is that play is
shorter than novel On the average
one may say t,nt it takes six plays to
make the nmuer ut novel. other
things being equal a shurt work Of art
presents fewer difficulties than long
er one. The contrary is held true by
the majority. but then the majority,
having never attempted to produce a
long work Of art. are unqualified to
offer nm opinion
It is said that the most difficult form
OF poetry is the sonnet But the most
difficult form of poetry is the epic The
proof that the sonnet is the most diff
Gcult form is alleged to he in the few
ness OF perfect snunets There are.
however. few more perfect sonnets
than perfect epi,'s. a perfect sonnet
may be heavenly accident. But such
accidents can never happen to writer's
OF epics,
Some years ago we had an enormous
palaver about the art OF the short
story" which numerous persons who
had omitted to write novels prOnOunc-
ed to be more difficult than the novel.
But the fact remains that there are
scores Of perfect short stories, where
as it is doubtful whether anybody but
Turgenev ever did write perfect
novel;
A short form Is easier to manipulate
than long form because its cOnstruc-
ton is less complicated. because the
balance OF It's proportions can be more
easily corrected by means OF rapid
survey. because it is lawful and even
necessary in 1t to leave undOne many
things which are very hard to do and
because the emotional strain is less
prolonged. The most difficult thing in
all art is to maintain the imaginative
tension unslackened throughout a con-
siderable period.-MetropolItan Maga-

Kills wife and Four Children.

Kills Wife and Four Children.
The bodies of Mrs. Mary Lake and
her four children, Horace, seventeen;
Walter. eight; Stella. eighteen, and
Dorothy, fourteen, were found naked
in their Brooklyn home, horribly man
gled.
Beside them, dying. was the hus-
band and father, Henry Lake, a res
taurant chef Apparently he had killed
all five, then fatally wounded himself.
The police say that Lake became in
sane through poverty, his wiie's ex-
cessive drinking and their frequent
ouarrels. He was fifty years old and
his employers say he was an earnest
and steady worker NeighbOrs verify
the allegation that his wife drank
heavily.
The tragedy occurred last Wednes-
day. Odors from the rooms aroused
ueighbors, and at their request the po-
lice broke in.
The apartment comprises three
rooms. Horace was found undressed
in the front parlOr on bed where he
had apparently been sleeping when he
was killed Wednesday night. There
were bullet holes in his stomach, indi-
eating, the physicians believe, that the
father in his madness, after staying
with his dead a day and night shot
him a second time. as he did the other
members of the family.
Passing through a double door to the
back parlor, Dr. Skidmore found Stella
on a bed in that room, with bullet
in her head and one in her stomach.
In corner acrSss the room, where he
Law crumpled, as though he had been
warding off his fathers advance when
shot was the body of Walter.
To the left of the boys body was
small door leading to a hall room,
where the mother of the family lay on
bed with three bullet holes in her
mead and one in her stomach. The
body Of Dorothy lay beside her.

.BURLESON CONSIDERS
POSTOFF|CE REFORM
Head of Department, However,
Will Go Into Operations
Carefully First.

Postmaster General Burleson, long
Congressman from Texas, is setting out
to demonstrate that a Democratic ad-
ministration can run the Postoffice De-
partment, not merely as well as a Re-
publican administration, but can i'm
prove upon 1t. He has an ambition to
bring the department up to a higher
standard than 1t has ever attained be-
fore. which is something Of task in
view of the fact the postal service long
has had an administration Of an eff
cient sort.
ticular proved himself an unusually
capable head of the department and, it
Is generally admitted, got results. in
spite of various criticisms.
The first thing the new Postmaster
General is having done is a general sur
vey of the Postoffice Department. He
is trying to find out all the details Of
the working before he begins making
changes. He does not intend to make
any false starts. Before he sets any
reforms in motion. he wants to know
they will be improvements on the old
way of doing things.
Postmaster General Burleson realizes
that he has at once great task and
a great opportunity in the administra-
ton of the parcel post law. This is
one of the subjects to which he. pur-
poses to give close attention. He is
convinced the country would not think
of giving UP the parcel post now that
il has ii and that 1t wants II delevoped
and perfected. One of the desires of
the new Postmaster General is to bring
this about.
Some disposition has been manifest
in the Administration to hold the office
seeked away at arms length. This does
not apply to Burleson. He has been in
politics since he was knee-high. He
likes the politicians. He has sought Of
flee himself. So, when man comes
around hunting office either for him
self or for a constituent, Burleson puts
a brotherly arm around him and listens
TO all his troubles, sending him away
feeling he has found a friend
The result is that Burleson threatens
to become the most popular member of
the Administration, not even excepting
Bryan himself.

FRAUD IS ALLEGED
AGAINST INDIANS
U. S. Board Will Inquire Into
Methods Used BY Settlers
in Getting Property.

In a report supplemental to that re-
Gently issued by the United States
Boad of Indian Commissioners. addi-
tional charges of fraud said to have
been perpetrated by the citizens of that
State against the Five Civilized Tribes
of Oklahoma, are made. 1t Is said the
board will make a determined effort
either at the coming special session of
Congress or at the one following in De-
cember next, to institute a thorough in
quiry into the charges made and to
prosecute the real estate spectators,
the settlers, and "sharpers'' who are
said to have used sharp practices In
gaining thousands of acres of land
decided to the Indians by the Federal
Government.
Until recently the lands were held In
trust by the United States for the
Five Civilized Tribes, but recently they
were giyen. full control over them. In
the preliminary report issued by the
commission some days ago, specific al
legations in regard to certain citizens
and certain Indians were made, and the
investigating members of the board
will amplify these charges with scores
of similar nature when Congress takes
the question up. as it is expected 1t
will do.
While Congress has had many charges
of Indian frauds before 1t in the past,
the specific information contained in
the series of reports from the Board
of Indian Commissioners will compel
an entire change Of front in the treat
ment of the problem. it is believed. and
will result in far more effective prose-
cutions of those alleged to have de-
frauded them than was possible in the
past.

Must Take Scutari,"
Says King Nicholas

CETTINJE, April 4.-"Scutari will
be my future capital" King Nicholas Of
Montenegro is quoted as saying in an
interview today. I'VE intend to take
Scutari and keep it,
In continuing the siege of Scutari,
which the Montenegrins began soon af-
ter the Balkan alliance declared war
against Turkey last October, Montene-
gro is defying Austria Hungary in an
information naval blockade of the coast
Of the diminutive kingdom.
I'VE are fighting against poverty for
our very existence" the King said. "Our
national life is at stake. We cannot
grow grain on rocks. Montenegro has
tried 1t long enough to know it cannot
be done.
ours is a struggle against starvation
and death, and II is far better to die
fighting than to go on living as We are
now. We must have Scutari."

CONSIDER
SCUTAR| SITUATION
Dispatch From ConstantinopIe
Says That ChataIja Is Being
Evacuated BY BuIgars.

LONDON, April AT the request Of
Foreign Secretary Sir Edward Grey, the
ambassadors of the powers today re-
sumed their conversations at the foreign
office. to discuss the Scutari situation.
A dispatch from Constantinople said
that the Bulgarians were withdrawing
from Chataua.
1t was regarded as uncertain whether
the Bulgarians planned to Join the Mon
tenegrins and Serv1ans before Scutart
or contemplated ending the war by ac-
cepting the peace terms proposed by
the powers and ratified by the Turkish
foreign Office.
The ambassadors felt that the Ball
kan situation had taken a turn for the
worse when communication from the
Austrian foreign office was received sby
the Austrian ambassador, saying that
austria hungary was determined to
bring to terms Montenegro or any 9TH
er Balkan nation which defied her
wishes.
A diplomatic note also was read, re-
porting the speech of the German for
efgn minister yesterday in the reich
stag, in which he said that Germany
would join Austria Hungary In the in
ternational demonstration Off the Mon
tenegrin coast. A German warship al
ready is on her way to the Adriatic and
two British vessels have been started
to join the blockade.
