law says pay them It costs money

own real estate few man pay the capt.

2ens of the Levy Court. They say
as Mr.. Parks says he was told, Enough
money Is stolen to run the county.
Legislatures and political parties
decide on many questions and the law
compels the Levy Court to pay the
bill whether il is for preventing the
New Jersey fishermen from fishing
in the Delaware on Sunday. or some
one for making an index of court
records. taking over city bridges and
getting the right of way for the ap-

The surrender of the portfolio of
State, by Mr.. Bryan, at the present
crisis is matter of deep regret and
grave concern throughout America.
While the phraseology of the note
about to be dispatched by the Presl-
dent to the Imperial German Gov
eminent is still matter of conjec-
ture, the resignation of Mr.. Bryan
makes it clear that the tenor of the
note is such that, following it's re-
cebtion at Berlin, war between the
Gef.uanic allies and olr own cOun
tr1' = |. event. ;.ly. The &c. ct
Mr.. Is. vans withdrawal from the
Presto ats official family Upon the
Benin and public sentiment in Ger
many is to be considered. Will the
action Of Mr.. Bryan create the i'm
preston in Germany that the Presi-
dent has not the support of the peo-
pie of America in his foreign policy?
And if it do, will that impression
have sufficient weight to affect the
tenor of the reply of Berlin to the
President of the United States?
Again, in the event of the contro.
versy, between the two governments
concerning the torpedoing of the
Lusitania and the other instances
of infringments of American rights,
or the alleged violations of the prin-
cipals of international law, should
reach the point where America
would become belligerent in the
world war, can America enter the
war with an entirely clear con-
science? The REIMBURSEMENT of Mr.
Bryan, of the Portforlio of State
accentuates the fact that there is a
wide difference of opinion in the
United States as to whether or no
Germany has actually violated any
principals of international law, and,
even if such has been done, as to
whether it is right, in the service of
our own country and humanity, for
America to protest so vigorously as
to offer a provocation of war.

SPURNED PRESIDENTS
PARDON; WIN LAW SUIT
u. S. Supreme Court Dismisses Con-
tempt Proceedings Against
Newspaper Men.

The United States Supreme Court yes
terday decided that George Burdick, city
editor, and William Il Curtin. reporter
both of the New York Tribune, who de-
cIned to tell the Federal grand jury in
New York the source of their information
for newspaper articles in regard to Gus
toms fraud. need not answer the Federal
prosecutors questions.
The two newspaper men refused to an
swer on the ground that they would in
criminate themselves. They were offered
a pardon from the President with view
to removing the alleged pleas of self-in-
elimination, but persisted in their refusal
to answer. They were held in contempt
by the Federal Court of New York and
appealed to the Supreme Court. The
question in the case was whether the IN
accepted tender of a pardon will toll the
privilege against determination. Justice
McKenna read the opinion of the court.
THE grace of a pardon may be In pre-
tense only" he said. Acceptance OF
pardon may bring greater disgrace than
the crime specified in II"
Justice McKenna ordered both Curtin
and Burdick from custody and that pro-
ceedings in contempt be dismissed.

Marion, Many Sided Actor,
Makes Hit In Washington
Author Producer Director and Star in Stageand at the
Gayety Greets Many Old Friends, and He and His
Company Get Hearty Welcome.

In these days of trade-marked goods, Ia
beled brands, and Standardization in gen.
eral, burlesque has not escaped. and there
has been marked sameness about most
of the companies and most of the produc-
tions that travel the circuit OF the bur
lesuue houses. There is usually the same
kind of Hebrew OF Irish comedian; the
same array Of more or less dressed girls,
and the same budget of jokes and songs.
It is therefore refreshing to find some
real originality and righteousness display
ed in the production Of a burlesque show,
and both have been shown to a marked
extent in the attraction which is on the
boards at the Gayety Theater this week.
Dave" Marion and his own Company in
SStageland.''
Mr. Marion is not only original in his
conception and execution of the role of
''Snuffy," the cab driver, but he is orig
inal in his ideas concerning what con-
stitutes a good burlesque show. and he
displays the ability to work out his ideas
to a successful conclusion.
He Did It All.
The entire production of ''Stageland,"
as are all other Dave Marion produC-
tons, was written, staged and produced
by Mr. Marion himself. He wrote the
the costumes and the stage settings, and
personally selected the company. At the
present time he is probably the only
actor observation-disclosures on the
American stage.
Mr.. Marion has been a footlight favor
lite for many years on many stages. He
has played in England, Ireland, Scot
land, America, and Australia, and has
owned a theater himself in the last
named country. In London his own orig
inal songs won him popular approval in
the foremost music halls, and in this
country he has played with Weber and
Fields and others of equal prominence.
Mr.. Marion sells more songs of his own
composition than, perhaps, any American
composer today Many favorites that
still find favor with the public are num-
bered among his compositions. Among
these are only One Girl in This World
for Me-" Her Eyes Outshine the Dia-
monds." 1T Makes No Difference What
You Were, It's What You Are Today"
Just a Plain American Girl" Just
Small Room, but It's Home" and Good
by, Old Broadway"
The Washington herald., 1915-01-26

Originality distinguishes the Marion
songs and the Marion productions. In tbs
creation of the character of ''Snuffy' III
has evolved new kind of comedian. The
inimitable Irish cabby, with his fiery steed
that had seen better days when Dan
Patch" was in his prime and his hanson
that rivals the "one-horse shay" in Its
declining years, form a combination that
provokes real and hearty laughter from
the time It first drives on to the Hoboken
dock in the first scene until il disappears
in the wings.
Cabby Clever Conception.
Tho amusing situations that arise be-
tween the immigration officers. the wharf
hands, the police, and the stranded COM
pany of actors that just arrived from
England keep the audience in one contin-
uous gale of laughter, broken only by the
songs which are interspersed freely
throughout the two acts.
Mr.. Marion's conception of the cabby
is one Of the cleverest examples Of good
comedy that has been seen on a Wash
ington stage.
As vehicle for humor, ''Snuffy's' cab
is without a rival. 1t has been driven
on the stage for a quarter of a century
or more, and the crack of the whip and
''Snuffy's' unintelligible gibberish have
made over 100000 people laugh. 1t is
to be regretted that the cab is to be
taken back to the stable this year, never
to appear again before the public. Mr..
Marion has announced this as the fare
well tour of "Snuffy."
In the supporting cast of "Stagcland"
are sixty entertainers. In the principal
parts are William Mossey, Tom Odell.
Chick Hunter. Burdette Hunter, Louis
Schribner. Max Gordon. William Mack,
Ray Magruder. Agnes Behler, Anna Arm
strong, Maude Clifton. Marion Gray, and
a chorus that is notable for its sprightli-
ness and singing.
Sta eland'' is a two-act musical play
that is one of the best things that Mr.
Marion has produced. The book, lyrics,
and music are assembled in a musical
comedy that would be a credit to a
'two-dollar house" The music is espe-
cially good. 'Emilina Lee" "EIks'
March, immigration" and Snuf1y's
own hit, Moon, Moon, Moon" the large
and enthusiastic audience that packed
the Gayety yesterday found especially
tuneful and demanded encore after en-
core.
