MAUDE ADAMS MAKES
WISTFUL CINDERELLA
Barrie Play Provides Actress Most
Congenial Role.

Special to The Washington Herald.
New York, Dec. 30.-Maude Adams is
here In Barrie play. not another Peter
Pan" nor a What Every Woman
Knows" nor yet Legend Of Honor"
but something with a little bit of each
of these, for "a Kiss for Cinderella is
unmistakably Barrie in a mood of in
finite charm and whinsy and kindly
humor. Only one man could have writ
ten such a delectable combination Of
fantasy and fact, such mingling of the
dream world and reality, and there never
was-there never will be-one Is tempted
to state in extravagant appreciation
such q wistful Cinderella as Maude
Adams. An evening Of rare delight is
In store for those who visit the Empire.
The meaning Of "A Kiss for Cinde-
rella" may be called elusive, and 30 it
is. just as thoughts are elusive on the
border land Of slumber; but one cannot
well be definite and treat of fieeting,
half-reslized longings, which by their
very nature defy exact analysis and
must wither in the presence Of nnater-of-
fact, Questioning reality. Barrie con-
tinues to be the dramatist of dreams,
OF subtle emotions Of spiritual strivings
in . physical world, and the wonder Of
his work II that he succeeds In being at
once 20 spiritual and so human.

HUMILIATION

Some few colored men have de-
clared for Mr.. Wilson and the Demo-
cratic party. The Blade wants to ask
few questions and request an an
swer from Adam Patterson and his
aggregation. First, are these gen
tlemen permitted to ride through the
South in a first class car? If not,
why not! Second, are these gentle
men taken on equality with those who
established the Jim Crow" cars?
Are thu wives and daughters of these
gentlemen permitted in a frst-class
car going South or any section Of this
country, when the Acknowledgement
laws are enforced? What induce
ment, therefore, has been the demo-
cratic party? Are they not aware
that it is the scheme of the demo
cratic party to tighten the rope
around the neck of colored Ameri-
cans. Are these colored men sane
or insane? There is nothing in the
democratic party for the Colored
American, and never will be. Men
have right to exercise their own
judgment, but so far as the colored
men are concerned The Blade believes
there are exceptions.
Look, if you please, when you are
in car at the opposite and ask your
self the question, Am | an American
citizen? If you are an American
citizen, are you not the equal Of those
who discriminate against you? What
will the colored man do under the
present conditions? Race prejudice is
more rampant now than at any time
in the history of this republic. The
argument that is being advanced by
these colored men who are supporting
Mr.. Wilson is fiimsy. 1t is ridicu-
lous. The idea of praising the party
that declares the cOlored mans in
feriority and condemning the party
that recognizes equality of citizen
ship. What has become of the col
ored mans senses? Is he crazy?
Nothing is more humiliating than to
see your wives and daughters dis
eliminated against.
Beware of false prophets!
