Although Spanish in atmosphere and
scene. the play has a local interest be
cause of its reference to events of the
Spanish-American war. AS a study in
psychology it is unusual for the entire

Donna Teodora. the wife of Don Julian.
are in love with each other, and in the
end what 1.-The world says Is found to be
true.
The scene in which Don Ernesto de-
nounces "the world for its gossipy tongue
swears that until then there had been
nothing between himself and his friend s
wife, and then discloses that at last
love has come to them, is triumph in
thrills and excitement. 1t is excellently
handled by Richard Buhler in all its
complexities. The part is probably the
best Mr.. Buhler has had since he Joined
the Poll Players.

sham and Julie Opp were seen in Wash

Columbia,

The Trail Of the Lonesome Pine" a
dramatization of the novel of that name,
with Miss Charlotte Walker as June"
returned to the Columbia Theater last
night, after an absence Of three years
Although several changes have been
made In the cast since the play was here
before. it seems to have lost nothing of
its attraction. judging by the reception it
net last night
To students of the character, Miss
Walkers conception of June the little
mountain girl who wanted learning
and an acquaintance with the world be-
yond her spot in the Alleghenies, seemed
true to life. Similarly. Mr.. Willard Rob-
ertson. as Dave Tolliver," the young
feudist who is the rival of the city man
in his love for June" furnished a dis
tinguished portraiture of that intense
character. One might wish. however.
in last nights cast had put less volume
in their voices. in keeping with the low
voiced, quiet mountain character.
This well known play is after all, a
group of character studies The things
that happen to June and to John Hale,
the engineer who comes from the city Ia
the gap in the mountains, could happen
to them anywhere else than in the noun
talns. The aspiration of June to be like
the city-bred sister of Hale, whose por-
might dwell in the heart of any factory
girl of the city who had idealized her
employer or his son. To that fact the
play owes its wide appeal. Human nature
is dealt with, and, fortunately for the
playgoer. Mr.. Fox's novel was placed for
dramatization in the hands of a man
who has by other plays proved that he
knows the elements of human nature

In his Kelvin lecture yesterday. before

scheme to correct the vagaries Of the

the placing of a copper rod around the
earth parallel to the equator. which
would be able to discharge millions of
amperes, and thus correct climatic
changes-that is. he advocates the shift

a greater share of positive electricity in
