Lawyers Are Working
For Court Reforms

In the picturesque metropolis OF
Canada q distinguished gathering OF
lawyers from the United States is
working upon plans for the promotion
Of greater harmony and some approach
TO uniformity in the procedure of
American courts Federal and state
Judges are taking advantage CT the
annual meeting of the American Bar
association at Montreal to seek some
practical means of reforming the rules
of pleading and practice in the courts
of the United States and Of the several
Btates.
The goal which these eminent law
gers and jllrists hope to reach, In the
end, is a reform and greatly simpli-
ned and rnodernized system of trans
acting legal business in the courts OF
all civil divisions of the American re-
public They aim to set in motion
forces which win continue active until
the laws delays shall have been much
aessened. the expenses Of litigation
greatly diminished. and the differences.
In procedures between the courts Of va
rious states and sections practically
eliminated.
This movement aims to accomplish
one Of the most important of the re-
forms sought by progressive and en-
iIghtened Americans. It will make the
courts stronger, as it gains ground
and better assured of the entire loyalty
and confidence Of the people. It viii
rerve the ends Of justice and promote
good government. Enormous waste of
time and money will be prevented.
Hitherto the lawyers Of the United
states have been accused OF being
chiefly to blame for the excessive de-
lays and costs OF court procedure. If
the American Bar Association can re-
move this reproach from the legal pro-
fession It win earn the praise of far
seeing lawyers and laymen alike.

Newport r. l., Aug. 81.-Under the

Craig BiddIe and Mrs. Dick Stevens.
Newport society is spending more law
ishly and perhaps more foolishly this
season than ever before. Last year
Mrs. Nicely Vanderbilt and Mrs. OH

were many who wondered before the
season closed whether they would be
able to get through without becoming
bankrupt, both in ideas and in wealth.
Now Mesdames Biddle, Goelet and
Stevens have started out to eclipse
last seasons most gorgeous entertain

Originality has been the keynote in
all the entertainments-ori at

WHITE SLAVES?
Rarper's Weekly.
. = - . . . q . . = . .

1t has been held in the notorious San
within the Mann act, the so-called
white slave act, if he merely pays the
fare Of woman from one place to
another, If they are making the trip
for purposes deemed morally obtec-
tionable. It may or may not be wise
for the government to undertake to
regulate all the sex matters in the
universe but it Is certainly idiotic to
make no distinction between the real
white slave traffic, which is the or
ganized interstate trade in vice, and
those voluntary rrangements between
the two individuals concerned. The
fight against organized vice as bust
ness has begun in earnest, and has an
increasing weight of public feeling be-
hind 1t. The danger Of a statute like
the Mann act is that, in mixing up a
cruel business with the ordinary con-
Germs of private individuals it may
bring about a reaction. The Mann act
not only does not confine itself to or
ganized traffic, it does not confine it
self to prostitution organized or isolat-
ed. It undertakes to bring within the
federal statute, on technicaltty, pure
ly individual and non-mercenary mat
tiers and thus make the federal govern
ment interfere with the most intimate
private morals. Whatever your opin-
ion about human rights may be, you
will admit that the law in this in
stance is undertaking a considerable
of regulation.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Bonita Theatre Today.

"The Prisoner Of Zenda," with James
K Hackett in his famous dual role,
supported by his own company. will be
shown at the Bonita theater today.
THE Prisoner of Zenda" is distinctly
piece of artistry. Although it fills
four reels and one hour and a quarter
is necessary to show 1t, at no time
does 1t drag. The reason is three
fold. First, there is the interest that
attaches to Mr.. Hackett's excellent
acting, secondly there is the plot,
which does not lack continuity, and
last there are the superb stage sets
and the beauty Of the outdoor back
ground. Pictorially It is a. master
piece and it is production every one
