The Passing of Popular Actor

Arthur Mckee Rankin. who died last week in San Francisco, was the last of the old school of actors whose chief aim was the interpretation of character. In some respects Rankin's merit was not commensurate with his fame, but he had the good fortune to augment his reputation by close asso- citation with other actors. Even after he had become trifle passe his in- terest in and association with Nance O'Neill, whom he was endeavoring to place in the rank of ''star," kept him constantly and favorably in the public eye.
 Rankin was born in Canada in 1S41, and while at college ran away to New York through disagreement with his father relative to dramatic predilic- tions. His father compelled him to re- turn to his home and accept gov ernment clerkship, but he soon again sought the stage and at 21 was the leading man for Mrs. John Drew. He quickly amassed large fortune which he later lost entirely in theatri- cal ventures.
 His dramatic instincts were in- herited by his daughters, all three of whom married into branches of the Drew family-one becoming Mrs. Sydney Drew, one Mrs. Lionel Barry more and the third the wife of Fanny Davenport's brother.
 Rankin chung to his profession with wonderful tenacity, and refusing to acknowledge the failing of his powers appeared at the age of 70 in Shake spearean dialogues with his daughter, Mrs. Davenport, in vaudeville per formances.
 Of late he had been almost forgot ten by the public and his death re- called the memory of one who during the civil war period was in many re- spects the idol of theatregoers upon both sides of the Atlantic.

\ PROHIBITION sNAG
the New York Commercial.

From the New Ofk 0Oinflefcldi
 Those who are opposed to total prohibi- ton of the liquor traffic including the manufacture, importation. or sale of any beverage containing alcohol in any form, draw attention to the loss of revenue which this country wifi sustain. The total revenue receipts of the federal gov ernment from all sources for 1912 were $6S1, ,O00,C00 $222 20O0,G09 of which were de- rived from taxes and duties on distilled and fermented liquors. This large sum would have to be made up in some way and the question to be decided is whether the sacrifice would result in a>corre- spending gain in the welfare of the peo- pie
 If drunkenness could be abolished with the assurance that no other vice, such as the habitual use of opium would take it's place, the answer would be more easily given. The trouble is that abso- lute prohibition would be followed by the manufacture of illicit spiias on a large scale. The process of tulnisg mash of any grain or other n.a .er,al containing starch or sugar into ordinary alcohol in a more or less diluted form is very sim pie and the cost of the apparatus re- quired is small

The National Guard

"The Mexican situatio is naturally of absorbing interest in the National Guard" said a bank official who is T veteran of the Spanish American war.
 "The activity in government circles brings 10 mind vividly 1898 when we went to war with Spain to free Cuba and when the Presidents call for vol unteers was answered by the civilians of the different states with character istic patriotism. We had an organized militia then, of course; but it was nothing like as well organized as the National Guard is today.
 "If large body of guardsmen should be called into active service and should be ordered into Mexico. it would not be surprising to see the governor of Alabama as commander in chief of the state militia, head our troops. Of course he would take his staff with him and the colone1s who have had no warlike duties to perform would then get real army experience. Col. Marcus Veil is the Birmingham mem Der of the staff
 T hope there will be very little fight ing in the event of a conflict of arms. President Wilson seems to think that the United States can win in its con- tention without a fight: but it looks to me as if that would be next to im- possible. If the Presidents idea, how ever, works out. should we have a par adox of a warless war?"

\ HUMANE RULER

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer
 Some would probably call President Poincare of France a crank. Doubtless many of his own people hold this opinion of him. Fer the Frenehman of today is strongly addicted to the forms of sports< manship which have for their object the killing of wild creatures, while President Poincare is so strongly opposed to all such pastime that the mere sound of sporting gun causes him genuine discomfort.
 The President Is of the opinion that the killing of animals for fun is relic of barbarism and unworthy of the civilized man of the twentieth century. He loves all animals, but he cannot endure the presence of dogs as pets since they re- mind him of their use as creatures of the chase. His favorite animal friend is a huge cat which with canine fidelity fol- lows him on his daily walks.
 This Is a pleasing example. It is in striking contrast with the attitude of sev- eral other Europeon rulers whose delight lies in the slaughter of wild creatures which are given no chance for self-preser- vation. Many Americans, too, suffer the same taint, finding pleasure in the gory activity of the hunt The President of France may be crank on the subject of killing wild life. but the world would be happier place if there were more like him.

Skyscraper Town

"Birmingha is now quite sky scraper town" said R. w Farnsworth of Philadelphia.
 q happened to have been in Birming ham 12 or IS years ago when the first steel frame building was being erect ed-a 10-story building. It was my first visit, and I recall the fact that bust new office building would be filled up. It was an experiment and some per sons I met thought it would require energetic effort on the part of the rental agent to get tenants enough to make it pay. But the next time l came erward l saw still larger steel frame structure, which is now the First Ma tional bank building. Handsome office buildings here have multiplied stead : fly and the 25-story Jefferson County Savings bank is the most impressive specimen of mercantile architecture that I have seen anywhere in the south. There are few skyscrapers in the north equal to it in general appearance, and l know of none that has so much ele- gant and costly ornamentation.
 Birmingham is much greater city would be. It has a good deal of the metropolitan about It, and it should not be surprising if the eity's populat tion was upward of 300.OO0 in the next cen sus'

Evolution of the Submarine

Invention is the result of evolution and. though not generally known, our n,odern submarine boats were first suggested by the possibilities o1 the ordinary diving bell.
 The first submarine upon record was constructed in the seventeenth century by Dutchman named Cor nelius Drebell, and was propelled by means of a liquid composition which restored oxygen to the air when 1t had become unfit for respiration and the secret of this composition has never been revealed.
 Several other attempts were made without success until Robert Fulton, in 1900. constructed in France div inp vessel which he tested upon the River Seine and was able to remain under water for four hours, moving the boat with ease in any direction For the purposes of respiration he em- ployed compressed air with satlsfac. tory results. From that time on inn movements were made and inventions effected until the present submarine was perfected.
 The boats now constructed range In size from 68 to 200 tons in displace- ment and are equipped with such ap- proved machinery that in action the craft seem endowed with life and pos sessed of human intelligence.
 When Jules Verne wrote his "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" he was admittedly romancing in unbridled license, and while his imaginary submarine was employed as pleasure craft, no one dreamed that the creature of his fancy would soon become a formidable force in naval warfare, nor did the inventor of the simple diving bell ever suppose that the product of his ingenuity would some day revolutionize the methods and movements of our conflicts at sea.

Congress Supporting the President

1 No'S N9P AoaPPoisbt6 NhS tSNPAoNasb
 In the crisis in the Mexican situa- ton President Wilson is acting with characteristic pdfse and courage, and will be strongly sustained by Con i gress. The House of Representatives under the vigorous leadership of Mr. | Underwood passed joint resolution approving the Presidents purpose ito use the armed forces of the nation to obtain from Huerta the fullest recog- milton of the honor and dignity of the United States" While the negative vote was somewhat larger than might have been expected, the majority was decisive enough. There is practically no opposition to the Presidents in- tention to compel Huerta to comply with the administration's demand that he salute the American flag; but some of the senators and representatives object to what they term individual lLl1g 11QtGld. Ht DGiid tS S IoiCiSh relations committee has amended the House resolution, but the effect will be practically unchanged.
 As Mir. Underwood pointed out with emphasis, immediate action of Con- gress in response to the Presidents message was imperative. The Senate adjourned shortly after midnight until noon today It will spend more time in debate than the House; but the re- suit will be a decisive vote to uphold the President.
 The Presidents special message set ting forth with due solemnity the facts in connection with the recent incidents in Mexico and asking Con- gress to approve his use of the army and navy in such ways and to such extent" as may be necessary in dealing with General Huerta and his adher- ents, had the true ring.
 If there is to be armed intervention in Mexico, President Wilson's pas sionate desire is that it be as little like war as possible. He makes it plain that he has no idea of aggression and that he does not intend to fight the Mexican people. t is only Huerta who has brought on the present sit uation and it is Huerta who must make amends.
 It may result in real war, but net if the President can, in dignity and honor, help it. But whatever be the course to be pursued, Congress and the American people will be with him.
