Prize Winning Drama in

TEW YORK, Jan. so am afraid
M the experience of winthrop Ames
- goes far to prove there are few
budding geniuses hiding their play
wrighting light under a bushel and
that the great American drama cannot
be obtained by offering a money prize,
no matter how large.
The winning play which took the
$4,000 prize Of Mr.. Ames over thou
sands of others is now on view at the
Booth theater The author IS the tai
Cuted shc-t story writer, Alice Brown
The piece is a curious combination OF
very good and very bad points. In the
first place, Miss Brown and Mr.. Ames
could be depended upon to give the eN-
act atmosphere of country New Eng
land, but the story Miss Brown has
elected TO tell in this setting is not an
attractive one.
Mary Allen Barstow. whom the New
Englanders would certainly call an 'old
maid" has given UP the lover Of her
girlhooG at the request Of her family,
and for 26 years has devoted herself
solely to the routine Of petty duties in
the paternal home

an uncongenial wife, with him she can

1t is difficult even in a short story
to make a middle aged love affair at
tractive. The playwright had better
give it up. This is not denying the IN
doubted humorous possibilities of a love
affair 40 years overdue.
Mr.. Ames and Miss Brown labor man
fully. Mary Ellen promises TO run
away with her strange partner, but de-
spite the joy she is convinced this
elopement would bring her, she cannot

The majority are of silk, with an un-

the crowns of the hats are of silk,
while the brims may be of straw. The
all-straw hats are mostly of a rough,
coarse straw and trimmed with gros-

Irish Sentry Finds TwO
Large Diamonds rs He
Patrols The Sand Dunes

London, Eng, Jan. 30.-How an Irish
corporal picked up two diamonds from
the drifting sands Of his sentry post in
German Southwest Africa, is told in a
letter which HIS just reached his fami-
ly here.
MY present post is in a desert of
sand Dunes" he writes. "A mirage
shimmers continually on the horizon.
The sand, blown by the wind, fills the
eyes and throat and bites into the skin.
1T is our duty to keep the railroad
open. That means very little soldier
ing, but a great deal of shoveling; all
day long the native shOvelers push
aside the drifting sand, which would
soon hide the rails if left to it's own
devices.
To-day, while I stood idly watching
a group of complaining shOvelers, my
eye caught an unusual flash, and
stopped and picked up a diamond. the
size Of a bean. L searched a little
longer and found another, a bit small

English Audiences Amused
When Kaiser is Mentioned
or is Shown in Panton1ime

London. Eng, Jan. 3O--It is some
what singular that while. Is years
ago, the Lord Chamberlain peremptor-
lily forbade theatrical managers to al
lude to the late Mr.. Kruger in pan
tOmime just after the South African
war had broken out, the German en-
peror is allowed to be freely chaffed in
nearly every pantOmime in London.
What perhaps is even more singular
is that no burst of hostile feeling IS
aroused when the archenemy of the
moment is mentioned, for his fOibles,
like the failings of the crown prince
serve simply to arouse mirth.
This presents n curious problem in
popular psychology. and it may be TAX
en- as proving that there is no fear
in any quarter of the emperor Will
lam. No parent eXclaims The Kaiser
is coming" in order to brighten a
child. 1t would be more likely to
evoke an inquiry as to whether Little
Willie" was coming with him, and it
is in this spirit that the anti-German
pantomime jests are accepted today.
