|PLAN EXHAUSTIVE QUIZ
INTO SUBMARINE DEFECTS
Secretary Daniels to Ascertain Cause
of So Many Disablements to
Underwater Craft.

Secretary Daniels is going ahead to-
day with his plans for an exhaustive
inquiry into the disabling of subma-
rines which had been assigned to take
part in the recent war game with the
Atlantic feet. Unofficial reports said
that half of the twelve underwater
craft had been disabled.
The purpose OF the inquiry Is to as
certain the cause of, and, If possible, a
remedy for. the too frequent breaking
down of the submarines. No effort
would be spared, it was announced. to
remedy the weaknesses in the navy's
underwater craft.
What am most interested in." said
Secretary Daniels. "is in finding out
whether these breakdowns were such
as must be expected In more or less
experimental boats or whether they
were due to faults of construction that
should have been remedied or to de-
fects in our system of reporting and
making repairs"
Designed Before 1912.
Secretary Daniels pointed out that all
of the submarines in trouble recently
were designed before 1912. Various
causes are assigned for the ineffective
ness OF the submarines in the recent
maneuVeres lNCluulnS Dattery ana other
troubles.
The Secretary expressed the hope that
| the battery trouble would be eliminat-
| ed in the navy's newer submarines, and
added that the other troubles wera be-
ing eliminated with each new design
as the defects Of the old design become
apparent
I'm the meanwhile" said Mr.. Daniels
"the plans for the twenty-six new sub
marines authorized by the Sixty third
Congress are being pushed with all
possible speed. and am greatly

POST SUPERB IN EXOT|CROMANCE

Noted Actor Charms Large Audience in Notable Per fOrmance of Richard Wal ton Tully's Famous Play - Wonderful. Production.

There is story to the effect that when Guy Bates Post was starring in , The Nigger quite a number of years ago, Richard Walton Tully told him he was working on a play which would have Omar Khayyam for it's central figure. MT Post asked for an opportunity to play it, declaring that in such role he could do the best work of his life. MT. Fully said that he wanted him to play the beach, comber in The Bird of Paradise" first, but Post objects because the star part was a woman's. q know" said Fully, but if You will play this part l will take you into New York playing Omar Khayyam." So it hap pened that Guy Bates Post played in support of Laurette Taylor in the play which made her a star. He waited three years to play Omar but it; was worth the waiting. Never has a finer role fallen to his lot and never has he done anything that so surely has stamped him as splendid actor
 Analysed as play. disregarding the exquisite stage pictures with which the producers have surrounded it. Omar the Tentmaker'' is sadly lack iIS III cCtlcIl IL IS d SeIleS OI lOnk speeches, interspersed with poetry ard to hold an audience as MT. Post sure ly does hold them, through all that talk is a feat few of our modern stage stars could accomplish His Omar for all his frailties, is a most lovable old soul. A roysterer and drunkard but withal a man. It is a splendid creation a masterpiece of stage tech nique, and-human. Omar is un- questionably the finest of a long line of his achievements.
 As a production, it is lavish and beautiful in the extreme. The stage lighting in particular was superb, ex- quisitely lovely and pervading the whole play with the poetic charm of a lovely Persian garden. Not the least remarkable thing about it was the manner in which the huge settings were handled on the small stage at the Elks theater
 The support, as a whole was good and the two Shireen, Louise Grass Ter and Mabel Emerson, were excel lent The performance was a partic- ularly trying one for Miss Emerson, as her husband, who had been MT. Posts manager for years, died yes- terday morning in Los Angeles and was buried just before the company left there yesterday.
 It was good to see the Elks open again and better to know that Omar the Tentmaker" was truly indicative of the quality of the attractions booked by MT. Redmond for the com ing season. The others are of quite different type, but of equally high calibre. There has been nothing here since the engagement of Sothern and Marlowe that could in any way com pare with it. It was magnificent.

Empire State Agrees to Take to Water
 lf Pennsylvania Will

The following communication from w. D. ONeili is f-explanatory:
 Having noticed by Sundays Repub- lican the vehement challenge of my compatriot, J. c. Reed, I am com peled to get into the papers immedi- ately to defend my title as the cham
 pion swimmer of the All States soci- ety for 55 yards. I know this will go hard on my friend Reed, who had previously thought" himself the champion swimmer of this society, but if he has become peeved over the recent race having ended as it did in his catching me by the heels and pull ing me under water why, I feel sorry for him He also told several people before the race that he was a regular water cut-up, and gave out the i'm pression that in addition to his speed he was swell Hula Hula" diver. Imagine Reed doing the Hula Hula,"
 It is now necessary for me to be- come pceved as the said article went way back to the war between the United States and Honduras CD and finally wound up with a suggestion that a modern German "steal-torpedo" net be used in the pool so as to make me safe from Reeds wild method of swimming which makes a "steaf' torpedo net necessary in the pool to protect Reed from the rest of the swimmers when he takes a bath. Fur ther, the statement made by Reed that he could swim "steal rings around me, and that he would bet million dollars to doughnut that he could beat me to the end of the pool and calling me q would-be swimmer sounds like belligerent talk. but I hope we don't find it necessary to re- call our diplomats.
 | am sorry to call the attention of The Republican readers to the fact that what was really peeving Reed was not the loss of the swimming race so much as was the fact that the Pennsylvania society (of which he is president had lost a tug of war for banquet
 Now. I have this proposition to make If the Pennsylvania society in vite the Empire State. society to q fried chicken dinner at Riverside Park in the rear future.

This is regular put up or shut-up' proposition, and l will waive the 'steal' net part of the agreement, as I expect to swim so fast Reed won't be able to locate me in the pool to again catch me by the heels as he did before. As for the "steal'' rings, why anyone can see at. a glance that he can't do it. I'll bet ell my doughnuts right now that the chicken part of this proposition and the million dollar part of it will prove embarrassing to my friend Reed. Se- lah!
