Az EMU e.

That most thrilling OF dramas With
its revelation Of a sordid side of Pari-
sian life, Madame X" was presented
In the Avenue theater Sunday, by the
Avenue Permanent players. The play
is study in emotions and offers a
number of widely different characters,
each of which is dissected with keen,
sure touch by the dramatist, Alexan-
Dire Bison.
In the Avenue presentation OF the
play, JasQueline, afterward known as
Madame X, Is enacted by Corinne
Cantwell, and Roy Walling has the
role of her son, whose eloquent plea
to q Paris jury frees his mother from
a felon's cell. although, at the time of
the trial, prisoner and advocate are
unaware of the bond OF relationship
which exists between them.
Miss Cantwell gave very good por'
trayal Of the refined, lovely woman OF
the opening Of the play. and Of the
drug-sodden wretch OF the slums
which this beautiful creature later be-
comes.
The play requires elaborate staging
and an earnest effort has been made
by the stage manager to adequately
present the scenes.

submeraed Timber.

The strength of a hemlock stick a foot square that had been in water for almost forty years was recently test ed in the 600,000-pound testing ma chine at Rensselaer, Polytechnic insti- ute at Troy, in Kew York. The tim Der, which was 16 feet inches long, had formed part of one of the piers of the Congress street bridge at Troy. When the pier broke down after the flood in the spring of 1913, the timber was turned over to one of the mate rial-testing laboratories of the insti- ute. It was kept in the open air for three months, and then placed in a dry room for little more than nine months When placed in the testing machine, the column failed under a load of 384,00O pounds; that is, the long-submerged wood showed an ulti- mate strength of 2,670 pounds to the square inch. In the opinion of Prof. T. R. Lawson, who conducted the test, the remarkable strength of this piece of hemlock seems to show that be- ing immersed in water for long time does not decrease the column strength of timber that Is subsequently permit ted to dry out.-Youth's Companion.

GERMANY ID MAKE

ACTION OF EiTEL IN SINKING U. S. SHIP WILL BE REPUDlATED

TWO OF FREY'S CREW HELD
Washington Investigates to Find Out If They Are Germans and If They
 Remain Aboard Voluntarily.

Washington. Germany probably tain of the Prinz Eitel Friedrich in sinking the American ship William P. Frye and make reparation for the loss of the vessel and cargo, in the opinion of German officials here.
 Inasmuch as the United States and Germany are in accord on the ques- tion of shipping foodstuffs from neu- tral country to civilians in belligerent territory, no issue is expected to be raised by Germany over the right of without interruption.
 Count von Bernstorff, the German ambassador, after a visit to the State Department, indicated that he believed the case would be settled without much difficulty. He told Counsellor Lansing what the captain of the Prinz Eitel had told Capt. Boy-Ed, naval at tache of the German embassy, as to the sinking of the American ship; but the ambassador reserved his own
  mander, saying he had no instructions from his government.
 The question of damages was dis cussed briefly between the owner of the Frye and the State Department of ficials who indicated that if the sink ing of the Frye was proved to be an aggravated case, punitive damages in addition to the value of ship and car go might be asked. They pointed out that England paid 25 per cent punitive damages in the famous Alabama case during the Civil War, but added that a final decision in the present case had not been reached
 State Department officials said the next step would be the drafting of a formal claim which could not be com pleted until definite information had been received from owners of the cargo.
 Charles Frank and Robert Rogge, members of the Frye's crew, were not released when Capt Fiehne and others of his crew came ashore, the com mander of the Friedrich stating at the | time that the men were Germans and still liable to service under German arms. When Collector of Customs Hamilton here looked into the matter it was stated the men had made no protestations against being detained or had they requested Captain Kiehne to aid them to get away.

 Nobody Will Know.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur properly compound ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also ends dandruff, itching scalp and stops falling hair.

Every body uses this old, famous recipe, be- cause no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair. as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time; by morn ing the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger.
