CONGRESSIONAL
 CHAPLAIN.

The first chaplain of the United States Congress was Rev. Jacob Duche, an Episcopa1ian, who died in Philadelphia 116 years ago to-day. He was native of the Quaker City, and a descendant of the Huguenots. He espoused the cause of the rebel Iious coIonists. and was invited by the first Continental Congress to deliver the opening prayer. He was rector of Christ Church when the British occupied Philadelphia. It was then that he was afflicted with an ailment which slangy noderns call tscoId feet. > and renounced the American cause, writing a letter to Washington urging him to do likewise. De- nounced as a traitor, he fled to Eng land, where he became a popuIl- reacher. Tn 17eo he returned to Philadelphia, and lived there until his ceath. In his prayer at the opening of the Continental Congress, Duche prayed God to Hook down in mercy upon these American States. which have fled to Thee from the rod of the oppressor and thrown themselves upon Thy gracious protection He also begged the Deity to "defeat the malicious designs of our adversaries.'

! ANNIVERSARY OF
 APPEARANCE A OF
 FIRST ACTRESS ON AMERICAN STAGE.

What could be more deadly dull than a theatrical performance with out any women in it? There may be an answer to this question, but it is unknown to the present writer. Yet there was a time when actresses were unknown and strictly tabooed, and the theatrical profession was for men on- ly To-day is an important anniver- drama, and a date which all theatre patrons should celebrate, for it was on Jan. 3. 1881. that Pepys recorded in his diary that he went to the Clare Market Theatre, saw "The Beggar's Bush, well performed. and added that this was s.the first time that I ever say a woman come upon the stage As MT. Pepys was thor ollgh man about-town, and saw and knew everything, douhtless that date may be set down as marking the be-. ginning of feminine participation in: the British drama. While Pepys' does able that Mrs. CoIman was the first Englishwoman to take to the stage. While most writers on dramatic his- tory agree with Pepys as to the date of the theatrical feminine invasion, one authority asserts that there is good evidence to show that Mrs. Col
 man performed the part of Ianthe in Davenant's Siege of Rhodes as ear ly as 1856. or five years prior to the date recorded by Pepys and others.
 Charles IT, was the first English
 monarch to encourage the public ap- Epearance of women on the stage. Anne, queen of James T., had pre- viously performed in a theatre at .eollft, but this was a private appear ance, and does not rob Mrs. colman neer professional and public actress of England.
 It is related that Charles IT. was convinced of the desirability Of hav- ing actresses in plays by a peculiar circumstance. The King was in his box some time before the curtain went up, and. becoming impatient, he demanded the reason of the delay He was told that .'the queen has not shaved yet!'' The Merry Monarch laughed at this explanation, but or dered that henceforth feminine parts be played by women From that time the men and boys who had been |taccustomed to play feminine roles found themselves deprived of en- ployme ent.

 Among the ancients, when the the

 man empire, but they were nearly all women of low morals. Indeed, it
 has been only within the last century that the actresses have escaped the universal condemnation formerly wis | tied upon. them. and have ceased to be social pariahs.

IATR. WANAMAKER'S
 PATRIOTIC CANDOR
From The New York Mail)

1ETOm The New 4Ork A1a1l) ss
 In the newspaper broadsides of opinions gathered from p TO m in ent manufacturers, |financiers and merchants re- Igarding the business outlook of l the United States for the pres lent year there is a striking agreement of view that 1914 is not to be a period of hard times, but one of readjustment to new Iconditions.
 l There is a distinct note of confidence, if not of enthusi- asIn, in the utterances of men
 who, only a few months ago, 1 predicted immediate and black disaster should the sacrosanct tariff schedules of extreme high protection be reduced. Perhaps the most interesting statement of all was made in John Wanamaker' frank and manly speech at the Union League Club in Philadelphia yesterday:
 Naturally a change of Iong-estab- lished tariff has disturbing influ- ence. Who is to blame for this? The Republican party, long in pow ers had full notice far back of the unrest of the people with a tariff un- necessarily high in spots. That par ty was deaf, dumb and blind to the wi n cS n r1F a ,11,- ation to enforce changes in the tar if corresponding to the improved machinery and greater skill of Amer lean workmen. Coming from 8 leading mer- chant and distinguished Repub- lican who powerfully support led MT. Taft last year and who served in President Harrison's cabinet, and urged an 'sequaIiz- ling tariff" as against mere sstandpatism,' this further
 statement comes with great force:
 The day of judgment came to the Republican party in November, 1912. Good Republicans, worn out by brok- l en pledges, resolved to punish their partys deaf, dumb and blind leader ship. They united against radfca1fsn and deliberately Joined forces with the Democratic brethren in turning over the national goxernnent to woodrow Wilson, who took office pledged dis tinctiy to two objects of profound in- terest to the business world:
 i 1. A lowered tariff.
 ?. A revisal of the monetary law to
 improve the old banking act. of Civil War time.
 In less than one year both these great undertakings have been accom-
 plished. All honor to the persistent President and the Democratic states
 men who have made their word good. And the most astonishing
 thing of all is that the very lmen responsible for this adeaf, dumb and blind leadership are
 being continued in control of
 the defeated and discredited Republican organization.
