Nursed German Soldiers.
Miss Cavell is the head nurse of a
surgical institute of Brussels. She has
spent her life in alleviating the suf-
ferings of others, and at her school
have been trained numerous nurses,
who, throughout the world, in Germany
as in Belgium. have kept watch at the
oedsides OF patients. At the beginning
of the war Miss Cavell gave her serv-
ices to German soldiers as well as to
others.
Failing other reasons, her humani-
tartan career is Of a nature to inspire
pity for her and. in advance, to secure
her pardon.
IF the information given mo is cor
cert. Miss Cavell, far from hiding her
all the facts laid to her charge, and the
information she supplied was the cause
of aggravating the sentence passed

In a report to Mr.. Page, at London,
Mr.. Whitlock wrote:

frequent inquiries of the German au-
thorities anu reminded them of their
promise that we should be fully in

under no Misrepresentation as to our
interest in the matter"
The British foreign office. in a note
to Ambassador Page, asking him to
express to Mr.. Whitlock and his STAFF
the British governments grateful
Miss Cavell, says:
View of Foreign Office.
"sir E. Grey (the British foreign
minister) is confident that the news of
the execution of this noble English
woman will be received with horror
and disgust. not only In the allied
states, but throughout the civilized
world.
Miss Cavell was not even charged
with espionage, and the fact that she
had nursed numbers of wounded Ger
man soldiers might have been regarded
as a complete reason in itself for
treating her with leniency.
THE attitude of the German authori-
ties is, If possible, rendered worse by
the discreditable efforts successfully
made by officials of the German civil
administration at Brussels to conceal
the fact that the sentence had been
passed and would be carried out I'M
mediately.
These efforts were, no doubt,
prompted by determination to carry
out the sentence before an appeal from
the finding of the court martial could
be made ito a higher authority and

show In the clearest manner that the
German authorities were well aware
that the carrying out of the sentence
was not warranted by any considera-
ton. Further comment on these pro-
ceedtngs would be superfluous."
Sir Edward Grey adds that he is fully
satisfied the American legation left no
stone unturned to secure a fair trial
for Miss Cavell and a mitigation of
her sentence.
Brave to the Last.
The Amsterdam correspondent Of the
Daily Express sends story concern
ing the case OF Miss Cavell, which he
says he secured from an intimate
friend Of the British nurse. The dis
patch follows: "She had long been sus-
pected by the Germans, but always re-
fused to leave SO long as there was a
single wounded man left in Brussels,
saying that duty compelled where
there was suffering. 1t is believed that
before her arrest she was spied upon.

is reported that when the president OF

Clown Still A Factor
But the Circus Fun-Maker of To-day Is Strictly
Up-to-date

The old.time clown has apparently
gone with the old one-ring circus, but
the modern Grimaldi seems to hold his
own in creating merriment for the pub
lie. One of the principal fun makers of
the Barnum & Bailey circus was recent
ly interviewed by newspaper reporter,
and gave some interesting facts in re-
gard to the evolution of the modern
circus comedian:
There has been revolution in
clowning," he said. "The time when
we could crib our jokes out of the fam
lily almanac has gone forever. Now
we must be funny without saving any
thing amusing. A man who wants to
make serious business of Glowing must
have a standing contract with a tin
shop, own a trained pig or comedy
automobile or be prepared to do any
thing from handling snakes to rivaling
the sword swallower. Of course, he
doesn't do these things literally Every
thing with him is a matter of burlesque.
In the days of the Shakespearian clown,
everything he said was in rhyme, and
his poetic witticisms were the talk of
the toNh' Inc NuSue Vi the cloWn was
therefore tremendous, and a single one
would command as in the case of Dan
Rice, salary of $500 a week. The
big shows have made the speaking
clowns impossible. They couldn't be
heard and action has taken the place of
speech. Instead of one clown there
are fifty, and while no man can com
mand salary equal to what Dan Rice
received, the combined expense to the
show is of course many times greater.
Naturally, as the speaking clown fell

more and more to the rear, it became a
serious question how to amuse the pub
lie and introduce those interludes of
laughter that seem so essential to an
arenic performance-esp especially to the
children. Pantomime pure and simple.
as practised in the Christmas spectacle
of Humpty Dumpty, would not do.
There was not sufficient variety to it,
New make-ups and new costumes were
demanded, and, the circus clown pres
emily became d vaudeville entertainer,
depending entirely upon his appear
ance and actions to command attention
and provoke laughter. That naturally
developed into little comedies in which
several of the clowns participated, and
these presented simultaneously at diff
ferent points in the rings and on the
hippodrome tracks, offered laughable
entertainment to the crowd.
"This year we have introduced
something new along the same line of
development. We call it burlesque
clowning. A popularity of this kind
lis that it requires great deal of
paraphernalia. What is burlesque
clowning9 1t is the caricaturing of
acts in the show which, by virtue of
their merit, have attracted particular
attention, and public events that are
currently in the public eye. 1t is in
this way that the modern clown keeps
in touch with the times and justifies
his intention in the colossal circus of
to-day"

& Bailey circus is said to form strik-
ing contrast to the sensational features
