people: Germany has declared war
against France, Russia, Belgium and
England, and this so without having
previously notified Italy. 1t is, there
fore, Austria and Germany which have
broken the agreement of the Triple
Alliance.
Now. as the two German empires are
waging a bold and offensive war. Italy
fulfills to the limits of possibility the
duties imposed upon her by the
treaty, and refrains from being en-
tangled in the inhuman conflict.

ITALY TRUE TO HER ALLIES
Il Was They Who Broke Their Treaty
with Her.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The cartoon in this mornings
Tribune representing Italy in the act
OF breaking the treaty Of the Triple
Alliance is an offence against truth
and justice.
The principal points OF the treaty
of the Triple Alliance are we'll known
and read: (a) II nation of the
Triple Alliance declares war against
another nation, the ally must first be
notified. (b) The ally receives aid OF
the other ally only when it is de-
fensive war.

THE TALK OF THE DAY
GLAD PROSPECT.

Some day with philanthropic care
Well take our customs everywhere
And teach the nations to be good
And always do the things they should.
Wen tell them, in explicit terms,
How to eXterminate the germs.
We will persuade them TO be wise
And boil their drinks and STAY the flies -
And after that they'll take a chance.
Wen teach them all he tango dance.
Wen teach them to wear clinging clothes
While they attempt the Venus pose.
From women they will hear lot
Who want to vote or who do not.
They'll talk in scientific phrase
On subjects that must oft amaze,
Since nothing is considered rough
If words you use are long enough
Oh, Nations! You will be surprised
When once Te get you civilized

ROMANCE OF A BALL PLAYER.

you've got the curves-youve got the speed;
Come, jump TO me and be my Fed

And then, startled, blighted wreck
He heard her edge in with this toss

Her old man blew in off the street;
The player sprinted with a slide,
But he was thrown out twenty feet

GAY GOOSE GLIDE
TIPS TANGO TABOO
Bird Steps May Convince Screen
Club That (John) Bunny Hug
Is All Right. Too.

Quite the gravest problem that has ever
confronted the moving picture world
since its pioneer days was argued last
night by the board OF directors Of the
Screen Club. No. le5 West 9Th street.
The question was Shall we. at our an
| nual ball january 81. dance as our
| mothers used 10 dance. or shall we tango.
bunny hug tout OF compliment 10 John
Bunny. Of course) and Argentine" Al
though it was never settled last night,
Julia and Frank. the club bartenders.
swung the votes way over to the tango
side.
Julia the Imp is quite the most pop
ular member OF the club. n Julia IS
happy. everybody laughs. Also. Julia is
the only female member OF the club. So
Julia the Imp chose Frank as her partner
and did her very best 20 show the board
that the tango. the bunny hug and the
Argentine crawl should win
The Tribune representative was present
only with the idea OF getting all the news
there. but to him Julia the Imp appeared
as follows
Her nose is a bright red, she il bow
legged. her neck is frigntfully long and
wiggly. she has beady eyes, when she
walks she doesn't-she wabbles from side
10 side; she's fiat footed. and she was
clothed merely in a thin covering OF
white feathers. But she can dance.
And Frank calls her "Duckie."
Also. she showed a most deplorable abb
sence of decorum by too obviously chas-
ing Frank all over the club. She go over
did it that when Frank hid behind the
bar she ran about the room, Kissing in
anger And while the Tribune representa-
tive was attempting to secure the facts
for which ne was sent, Julia the Imp
continuously interrupted by trying her
very best to chew an embroidered red rose
from his left sock. She had been drink
ing.
However. the club, which is made up OF
moving picture actors, managers and
owners. is well divided about what is best
TO dance at its coming ball. It's their
second annual ball. by the way. A whole
lot of them declare that this is 1914, and
therefore. If for no other reason, the
dances should be those that are popular
just now: and others say that, as was
said, they should dance as did mother
And they remained so until they entered
the barroom, some hours later. 10 see
Julia the Imp dance with Frank.
Just before the paper went TO press it
developed that this story is all wrong
because Julia, she is he and is named
julius the Imp. julius. by the way. is a
trained goose.

"We are all Of US daughters OF dog
enes. looking for an honest man. SAID
Miss Eleanor Gates. humping her cush-
ions with an energy that matched the
OF all creeds. eugenics. The old idea OF
woman is embodied in the term 'daugh-
ter OF Eve according TO which woman
was the cause OF all trouble. To-day the
role OF woman is reversed. She taxes
her name from her own idea of herself
rather than from mans idea OF her. In
her own mind she is the female Diogenes
always on the lookout for the man VINO
will make worthy husband.
Women are very serious nowadays
about this subject. Oh. yes. they laugh
and Joke about II, or else pretend they
are not interested. but deep down in her
heart every woman is subjectng every
man she meets TO this scrutiny she
never meets a strange man that the ques-
ton doesn't come into her mind, would
he make a good husband?' That Is usually
the end of It, of course. We don't, alas.
meet so many men who impress us as
worthy.
The same idea is in the mind OF every
intelligent mother. too. She never allows
a man to enter her house who could not
bear the Diogenes test. She does not per-
nit her young daughters TO make the ac-
quaintance of men whom she could not
accept as possible future sons-in-law
That IL not saying, OF course, that every
mother is so careful TO safeguard her
daughters We know OF too many cases
where mothers have been careless. AS
the importance OF eugenics becomes more
generally understood however, they will
be more particular about the character
OF the Young men whom they introduce

100000 GRANTED
FOR POLO TOURNEY
Panama-Pacific Exposition Di-
rectOrs Set Aside Big Sum
for Worlds Competition.
FOREIGN COUNTRIES READY

SAN FRANCISCO, April 2.-One
hundred thousand dollars was set
aside yesterday by directors of the
Panama-Pacihc Exposition for the
furtherance of a worlds polo tourna-
ment. With the approval of the
American Polo Association already
granted officials of the exposition said
last night it seemed reasonable to
hope that a score of countries would
be represented by one or more teams
each. The time set, March Is to May
l, 1915, insures good weather here and
at. the same time provides for the
closing of the tournament ahead of
the usual dates for other big matches
in the East or West.
1t was learned that Chill, Argen-
tina, Germany, England, Ireland,
Hawaii, Cuba, Canada and India al
ready have been sounded, with ready
responses. In America efforts will be
made to line up the best civilian and
army teams. Major General Leonard
Wood is named as an honorary di-
rector, and it is probable that a cham
pionship cup will be offered.
