NEW1ORK
LETTER eNs&fs,a a

NEW YORK, Jan. 18.-Putting the
Bible on the stage has always been
a more or less dangerous undertaking.
The peril OF sacrilege lies near on
the one hand; on the other, so strict
an adherence to scriptural narrative
that dramatic value will be lackinv.
II Is doubtful whether any play
wright has ever steered so skillfully
between these rocks as has Louis N,
Parker in Joseph and his Brethren"
the new pageant play" At the Gen.
fury theater.
There is no line or action that can
give offense TO the most devout, yet
there is throughout the most powerful
appeal TO the emotions; the play is
drama OF the highest order.
The production Of Liebler q Co, Is
as magnificent a series of spectacles
as can be imagined. Those previous
triumphs of stagecraft OF the Century
theater, THE Garden or Allah" and
"The Daughter of Heaven, have been
outdone.
There are four acts and l3 scenes.
They are series Of gasps, SO far
as the audiences are concerned. Per
haps the most wonderful is The Pyra-
mid"-a scene in the desert, the sky
full of twinkling stars, blood-red
moon low on the horizon, the great
dark pyramids marvels OF scenic repre-
sentation. But descriptions are vain.

CHICAGO, Jan. 18.-More DRASTIC
action in the board Of educanion's
campaign TO staLlp out high school
fraternities, was expected today, al
ter the difiance shown by two soror
tiles in giving dances last night, "A
hours after the board had ordered all
members Of the frats to be suspended
until they can sive bona ide evil
dence of their designations.
Board members expressed chagrin
today when they heard that 200 had
been present at the functions openly
given by the Theta Chi and Beta
Gamma Epsilon sororities.
Wholesale suspensions were mad
in every high school yesterday. IL
Hyde Park nigh school alone 70 were
barred from classes.

school," said Principal Hiram b
LOOMS, OF this school, Other prin
cipals echoed his words, and copied
his action
The Detroit times., 1913-01-18

The color, grandeur and beauty OF the
various scenes cannot be put into
words
So far as acting goes, the play Is
not only saved but exalted by the
splendid work Of Brandon lyman as
Joseph; James O'Neill, as Jacob;
Howard Kyle, as Simeon (who is de-
picted as ringleader of Joseph's wick
cd brethern), and Frank Losee as Pot
iphar Some others OF the large cast
read their lines intelligently, but
many there are Who rant and shout
aud mess UP most fearfuffy the aHCt-
ent form of speech in which the d.
alogue Is written.
These defects Of detail, however.
are lost sight OF in the protection
Of the picture as a whole. The audi
tor follows Joseph through his vicis-
STUDIES to his final triumph with an
interest that rithlng can defect. His
trust in his God to deliver
him out Of every persecution; his un-
swerving uprightncss in the face OF
every mortal temptation. are depicted
by lyman with a marvelously spirit
ual touch.
Pauline Frederick Is most beautiful
and most alluring as Potiphar's wife.
Her costume, in the temptation scene.
leaves dreadfully little TO the imagin-
alton, but she carries of the scene
without even Lint OF vulgarity.
There are a number of dances ar
ranged and led by Violet Romer,

York reputation as the dancer in "Kis-
met" and whose work in this produc-
ton Is giving her new laurels

summing up what has been done, DR..
Roberts concludes his discussion with
this pertinent statement:
Morgan thinks that man does not
replace an arm or leg as crabs do
because his tissues regenerate with
different degrees OF rapidity There
Is no tendency shown by the bones
and tissues to regenerate together.
May not the time come when the
surgeon will regulate these processes
in the same manner as other human
functions have come under control?"

BRANDT,
MUST SHUN STAGE
Schif Valet Leaves New York
for West to Enjoy
Freedom

NEW YORK, Jan. 18.-After serv-
ing six of the 80 years to which he
was sentenced for burglary at the
home OF Mortimer l.. Schiff, where he
was servant. Foulke Il. Brandt left
for the west on an early train today,
to enjoy the freedom OF the pardon
granted him yesterday by Gov. Sulzer,
because the sentence was excessive.
Brandt was accompanied by United
States Senator Nelson, OF Minnesota,
and he will stop first in Washington
before going 10 Minnesota TO begin
lie anew. A large number OF mem
bers \of Swedish societies were at
the pennsylvania station to shake
his Band and wish him luck.
Brandt very assiduously followed
the instructions OF Gov Sulzer, that
he would not discuss his case. He
has been warned that IL he does dis
cuss the slanderous statements pre-
viously made, which he retracted pub
licly yesterday, or seeks to gain any
notoriety by either writing OF his
case, or appearing on the stage, the
pardon will be revoked
Brandt was valet for Banker Schiff
When caught in the house at night,
he was charged with burglary. He
claimed at the time Mrs. Schiff had
invited him TO come, but has declared
this an erroneous statement.

School in Virginia to Take

BLACKSTONE, Va, Jan. ls.-Earl
Richeson, brother OF Clarence ". T..
Richeson, WHOM as electrocuted In
Boston last spring for the murder OF
avis Linnell, has entered the Black
stone academy, preparatory school
TO mt himself for the Baptist min
lstry.
He arrived here n day or two ago
from his home In Amherst and enter
Ell upon his studies with vim.
II was through the influence OF ID.
5. Lyon, principal OF the academy,
that young Richeson determined TO
follow his Inflated brother into the
ministry.
Another factor was the late Rev. DR..
William +. Hatcher, founder and pres
iGent for some years of Fork Union
Military Academy, with which Profess
sor Lyon was connected as head mas.
ter for three years.
Through DR.. Hatcher, who convert
ed Clarence Richeson, when the lat
ter was youth, at a revival meeting
In Amherst, Professor Lyon came to
know the younger Richeson, and
when he established his academy here
September last, induced him To enter
the institution and lay the foundation
for theological training.
II was DR.. Hatcher TO whom Clar-
ence Richeson, wrote from Boston,
seeking a pulpit charge In Virginia.
shortly before he was arrested for
murder
Dr. Hatcher exchanged several le,-,
tiers with Clarence Richeson, and
made every effort 10 procure him
charge in this state without success.
| Or, Hatcher always evinced the
greatest interest In Clarence, and had
followed his career practically from
the time he left the farm In Amherst
TO go west.
Like his older brother, younger
Richeson has always had yearning
for the ministry, although 1t was not
until after his brothers death that he
made up his mind definitely to make
II his life work
In reaching this decision he was
encouraged by his aged father.

And while DIR. Roberts, in asking
and answering this question in so az
trmative manner, simply gives the
result OF his study of the researches
OF DR.. Alexis Carrel OF the Rockefel-
Ter institute, OF DR.. John Is. Murphy
OF Chicago, and others, more def
mite answer was contained in a news
paper dispatch. A boy in Conneeti-
cut was in peril OF losing his arm
through an accident while hunting.
Surgeons removed the shattered
bones, inserted IN their place the
bones OF a rabbit and the youths arm
was restored to its normal condition
Scientific investigation has shown
that the crab can reproduce a limb
that has been destroyed and that q
lizard can replace tail, although II
cannot grow a new leg. There Is REQ
ord OF a frog that grew new fore
leg. And while the result OF modern
Investigation alone Is responsible for
the startling statements that have
emanated from men like Roberts and
Carrel and Murphy the idea OF as
sisting nature In the replacing OF
limbs, ETC., that have been destroyed,
is not at all new. The leaders In the
new school of surgery, II 1t can be
called new school, are agreed that
nature must be assisted In restoring
damaged bodies. And while they have
progressed wonderfully toward bring
ing into general practice a method or
giving this assistance, they have three
thousand years OF experiment behind
them AS early as 1900 B. c., there
was record of grating new bones on
old stumps in Egypt. In India, SO far
back that there is no record or the
time, noses, cut off as punishment for
crime, were replaced. And when the
courts ordered the severed noses
burned because OF the growth OF the
practice OF restoring them. surgeons
sprang into being who supplied per
feet new noses.
The genesis OF the work OF the sur
geons OF today may be said to date
from the introduction OF the Indian
practices in Italy in the fifteenth cen
tury. There are numerous records OF
the work OF the Brancas, father and
son. the Sicilian surgeons who prac-
ticed skin grating and the rebuilding
OF damaged personalities
