Without the shadow of doubt one
can declare that Jack Kerrigan, or, to
be exact, j. Warren Kerrigan, is the
foremost player in filmdom. Not only
is he the popular idol of the general
public; but, what is greater achieve
ment, his associates, be they MEM
bers Of his own company or identified
with other film companies, one and
all agree that there Is only one Jack
and that is Jack kerrigaR."
And yet it would be difficult indeed
to find one more modest, more unas-
sumfng and reticent than Mr.. Kerri-
gan. lnterviewers usually do most OF
the talking when in the company OF
this versatile, serious actor, and the
following story of his past was CLEAN
ed after many questions which though
answered graciously enough, were
only too abbreviated.
To begin with, MIR. Kerrigan is six
feet one, and as he weighs about 1875
pounds 1t is readily seen that he is
built in proportion. His eyes are that
elusive color sometimes called "haZ-
ell" his complexion fair (under the

hair is just as black as black can be
Can one imagine a handsomer com
bination?
But land this is indeed to rarely
the case) Handsome is as handsome
does,' and surely very few actors on
the screen today have done more for
its uplift and betterment than Jack
Kerrigan. 1t has been his aim and
ambition to show the world that the
movies are powerful factor for good
and, with this noble object in mind
and considering his achievements in
this direction it is not to wondered
at that Jack has become SO popular in
his chosen profession.
Before entering the film world he
played in schubert's Road to Yes
terday," Brown at Harvard" and
Brady's Master Key companies.
Then about four years ago came a
tempting offer from the Essanay Com
pany to join the movies, which he

THE TARIFF REBATE UPHELD.

The Board of United States General Appraisers has by an unanimous vote upheld the per cent rebate sectloh of the new tariff law. This means that all goods imported into the un- tied States in American bottoms are entitled to a rebate amounting to D per cent of their value. and the de- cision is of considerable importance in the upbuildine of the American merchant marine Importers who had shipped in foreign vessels protested, but were overruled, and they will now carry their grievance to the Court of Customs Appeals, which will pass fin ally on the point at issue.
 The protestants claimed that the rebate was in violation of treaties, but the answer of the board of ap- praisers, delivered by Byron S. Waite, seems to be conclusive:
 "This is not statute extending a favor to any particular country It is rather an offer made by the Unit ed States to importers, whether they he from one country or another, or whether they be from a place not within the jurisdiction of any coun- try. The same privilege is extended to England as to France or Germany or Italy; that is, to bring in goods in American vessels and receive the E per cent discount from the regular duties of the tariff act. We do not think this violates the provision of the most-favored-n clause"
 While this 5 per cent rebate may not be able to neutralize the evil eff fleets of American shipping laws, it will undoubtedly have tendency to build up the merchant marine, so de- ,sirable and so long overdue. It is not a new thing in American policy. In the early days of the republic a similar rebate to goods brought in to the United States in American bot toms helped to put the mercantile marine on an equality with the Brit ish marine. And if a , per cent drawback is subsidy, it is the least objectionable form of subsidy.-Ex.

souARlNG ROUND SHOULDERS.

The future is secure. We will all be models of physical perfection and cease worrying about appearances. This may sound large, but the Amer ican Posture League has been or ganized to do the work.
 First, attention is to be given to the sitting and standing pastures Of children in schools and of adults in shops, offices, factories and else where This opens up an unlimited field. Round shoulders ar edevelop- ed in childhood and they are due in great measure to faulty school seats and ill-ftting clothes.
 Factory operatives and others em- ployed in sedentary occupations should be much benefited by sys- ,ema-ic campaign for healthful stand ards in what the language terms pos ture engineering. Apart from the needless fatigue caused by ill-adapt- ed chairs, stools, and work benches, the ruining of the machinery of the body or putting it at mechanical disadvantage" tends to break down the health and in many instances renders abortive measure to relieve tuberculosis, anaemia, and other dis eases.
 This is the first organized attempt ever made to standardize these var ious conditions, and, having the sup port as it has of leading orthopedic surgeons, physical trainers, and edu- cators who have specialized on these subj. cts, the league should be able to make an effective campaign of edu- cation.
 We can see trouble ahead, how ever, for the league. What will hap pen when the leagues orders run counter to the decrees of fashion? Does the league expect to triumph ov- CT the "debutante dip" and the "in- genue slouch" and the school boy swagger? Fashion has decreed, fol the time being, curved shoulders. Be fore the league undertakes to cure that order, let it show that it car square a circle.-Ex. <.

ECCLES, w. Va., April 29.--Twc hundred and sixty miners were en- tombed here last night when a sud den explosion of coal damp destroy ed the shaft and broke down the walls of the lower workings. A few men escaped from the mine after the explosion, but they were near the entrance at the time.
 The day crew was immediately summoned and set to work to rescue their companions. All the extra crews from the other mines were al so impressed and the men worked only for ten minutes, when they were relieved by others.
 A government special train with mine rescue workers reached here four hours after being notified of the explosion and they immediately start ed to direct the work and hope to reach the men, some of whom may be alive, within the next "A hours.
 The work of rescuing the men has been made difficult by the large amount of gas which is in the mine and another explosion is feared.
 The wives, mothers and children of the miners imprisoned are waiting at the shaft head for their men and will not leave until they know the fate of those they love.

wives and relatives of those who were saved threw themselves on the necks of their rescued relatives and gave way to fitful sobbing and laugh ter and rejoicing at the return of their loved ones alive. And as the relatives of those still in the mine were told that no hope existed and that the mine might be sealed, they begged and fought to have another effort made and some of the women even endeavored to go down in the mine and help the workers, but were prevented from doing this.
