"QU0 VADIS {"

Those who attended the play "Quc
Vadis?" which had quite a run in this
country ten or eleven years ago will
be pleased to learn that Sienkewicz' :
famous novel of the time of Nero Is
now a photo-play. Realistic to the
very highest degree on the stage, the
|motion-film of this novel offers even
wider possibilities for the quality
readiness.
A dramatic writer says:
The orgies of the court in rsero's
palace proceed with a degree of
naturalness which would never
have been possible on the stage,
THE crowd in front of the palace
as Rome burns; the Emperor hear
ing with establishment their i'm
precautions, and the sight of
Petronius turning their affections
once more to Caesar-these cpl
sodes were accomplished with
vivid fash of reality impossible to
the dramatic stage.
IT was of course the burning OF
Rome which most fully revealed
the capacity of the pictures to in
dictate spectacle. Through streets
swept, by smoke and flame rushed
panic stricken people. Houses tot
tered and crumbled about them as
the flames advanced relentlessly
With striking reality is the
burning of the city represented;
the later views of charred and
ruined buildings added their effec-
tiveness to the scenes.
1t was perhaps the most striking
novelty of these pictures that the
backgrounds never seemed to have
been created for the special pur-
poses of these various views. The
action seemed on the other hand
to be taking place in just the spots
it would naturally have happened
Certainly the film screen in the
nickel-show presents greater oppor-
tunity for the burning of Rome than
the finest stage in the world. Quo
Vadis?'' in film is one of the signs of
the triumph, in many respects, of the
motion-film over the regular stage.

Istead of taking advantage of some
otherwise splendid locations on the
north side.
According to the proposed system
property fronting on strets in which
the trunk lines will be laid will be
assessed an additional dollar per
front foot. because this property is
getting the advantage of a local as
well as a district sewer. Some prop
Ierty owners object to this. The
trunks will be laid in the most i'm
portant streets. thoroughfares that
have always had the best prospects,

The property owners speculated in

trying to please all sides will have to
decide one way or another. If silence
gives consent it may rely on ten prop
|erty owners voting in favor of the
deep sewer system as against one re-
monstrator, and no administration
can afford to disregard the wishes of
so large a percentage. No matter
what the question the opposition may
always be relied on to show the most
activity. and the same is true in the
present situation. The would-be re-
monstrators are sincere and in earn
est, no doubt, but even they would
not assert themselves to oppose the
balance of the city, and IL they can
be convinced that they are working
against their own interests they will
make haste slowly in this important
matter.

FORWARD MARCH.

Now by inches, now by leaps and
bounds, democracy, not the Tom Mar
shall brand is marching forward.
Whether we approve of the methods
by which the principles are establish
ed the fact remains that the many are
asserting their rights over the few.
Inc tremendous changes In China are
SO recent that their full significance
has not yet been fully realized.
Equally remarkable is the equal
suffrage movement that has Just won
out with ten days political strike"
in Belgium. The manner in which
the half million socialists won is as
disconcerting to the ruling powers rs
the concessions that they had to
make, for, the Belgian movement has
been notable, according to the press
dispatches, for the energy and de-
termination displayed for the excel
lent control shown by the men.
The immediate victory consists in
that the government promises to take
up for consideration a change of the
1~'6AoA POI franchise with
its hated system of plural votes for
the weather. and more educated
emlasses- At the last returns 9s3,O7o
men possessed one vote, 3s5,S66 two
votes and 30S,683 three votes, so that
the single votes were always over
whelmed, but now the leaders are
confident that the franchise will be
made equal
The government leaders may well
have fears that surrender will encour-
age the socialists to resort to the gen
eral strike for other reforms they may
desire, but the success of our own re-
puohc strengthens in us the conf
dence in the rule for and by the peo-
pie.

THE HAMMOND PLAN.

Regardless of the fact that there
will probably never be entire agree
ment as to the extent to which low
wage of the working girl contributes
to delinquency, the investigations in
to the situation now being conducted
in vaious parts of the country, are al
ready showing results of gratifying
character. 1t may be that insufficient
wages, long hours and hard work can
not justly be charged with SO large a
degree of responsibility for the short

comings of those who fall as is claim
eo In some quarters, but one develop
ment of salutary character has been
the bringing to employers of new
sense of responsibility that extends
beyond the mere working hours for
whoch he pays. Doubtless short-com-
ing in this respect in the past has
been due not so much to indifference
as to failure to appreciate the proper
relationship between employer and
|employe. One interesting develop
ment of the agitation is reported from
Hammond, this state, where a dozen
or more large employers of female la
Dor purpose to unite in the erection
of ahome for working girls. 1t is
planned to provide living place for
them where they may be surrounded
by wholesome influences and where
the living expenses shall be no more
than they can afford to pay. One Fort
Wayne institution has provided ac-
commodations of this character for
the past few years, and it is declared
the experiment is eminently satisfac-
tory. In seeking the same results on
a large scope, employers at Hammond

DANCES FIND A FRIEND.

The turkey trot, the tango and the
lone-step have found a friend in the
midst of all their afternoon tea trou-
Ibles. Miss Gertrude Robinson Smith,
secretary of the National Civic Fed
leration. which sees to it that working
girls not only have a good time in the
summer but fun all the year through.

ting dances which have set all New

portion of them by the toes.
The turkey trot. properly danced.
is rhythmical and good looking
dance" she declared Il approve of
the turkey trot, the tango, the one
step and all the rest of these new
dances when they are properly and
correctly danced. There is no harm
in them and a great deal of fun.
But and Miss Smith nodded her
hear very emphatically, "if a girl
doesn't know how to dance them cor
rectiy she shouldn't dance them at
all.
The real point is just this, and it
applies equally to the working girl
and to the society girl. If girl will
respect herself just as much In dane
ing as she would if the man was sit
ting on the sofa beside her, there will
be no harm for her in dancing the
turkey trot
These dances are beautiful, and
| believe they have come to stay, be-
cause they are SO much more rhyth-
mical and spontaneous than the old
waltz and two-step. They express so
naturally the joyous overflow of ex-
uberance and good spirits. They have
that primitive satisfying quality of
pure rhythm, like the beating of tom
toms and the rhythmical dances of
Indians and Oriental peoples.

|sidered shocking until you grow ac-

The Sun believes that a similar
confidence, courage, intelligence
adaptability are common among
American industries. They or most
of them can make their way against
the world; and they are bothered far
less by changes of tariff than by
doubt about and waiting for the
changes.

The confidence and courage of the
Secretary of Commerce, a thorouehIv

cut by the new tariff bill, are not less
noticeable and refreshing in the in

ANOTHER ROAST FOR MARSHALL

We may as well confess that the
Jefferson birthday dinner given by
the National Democratic club in this
city was frost. Only about half as
many guests as usual attended, and
those who were there were glum as
oysters. Even the customary toast to
the president of the United States was
omitted, and there was a good deal of
silence when Mr.. Marshall expressed
his personal belief that Mr.. Wilson is
the authorized representative of the
Almighty.

enthusiasm at a democratic dinner

was nothing like as much as there

practically none at all.
