A friend and reader OF this paper
received by him from a friend, a
Turk, then in Paris, France, dated
May 9TH 1913.
In his explanatory remarks our
contributor says:

much Of the foreign policies Of
European nations, and became

brilliant Turkish gentleman, also
member of the Faculty Of Robert

1911, and knew that ,he would have
a years leave in the winter Of
1912-13. I tried, before leaving
Turkey, to induce him to study in
America, but he had made up his
mind on Paris. That explains the
first sentence OF his letters. The
only parts omitted are the preceding
and succeeding, which were personal
news. Nothing Is omitted from the
political discussion. Rather an
interesting letter in retrospect, isn't
it?

comment by yourself on Britain's
insistence on citing Civil War in.

The following is the letter from

W. respectfully urge your
vigorous protest and vote against
any legislation permitting Ameri-
a citizens to travel on armed
beIhgerent vessels at the risk Of
involving this country in a foreign
war, the causes of which would
forever leave an indelible stain
on the reputation for peace and
neutrality of the United States,
whose honor and self-respect does
not depend upon insistence on the
rights of Americans to assume
risks which it is their patriotic
duty to avoid. This sentiment is
strongly endorsed by an over
wheIming majority Of our people
who are strongly opposed to war
and believe Congress should in
sist on its prerogatiye to act
independently.

AT THE MAJESTIC.

Bessie Barriscale wears a black wig
in The Sorrows of Love-" Triangle
Ince feature in which she is starred,
and in which William Desmond plays
the chief supporting role. Miss Bar
riscale admits it frankly, and without
fear of reproach. In fact, she admits
it with confidence, a confidence gained
from the fact that her greatest sue
cesses on the speaking stage were
scored in plays in which she played
the part of a dark-skinned maiden
and wore corresponding dark hair
The Rose of the Rancho" and The
Bird of Paradise. In The Sorrows of
Love-" to be seen tonight and tomOr-
row at the Majestic, Miss Barriscale
found it necessary to use a much finer
wig than that which she wore in her
stage plays. The intimacy of the mo-
ton picture closeup made it neces-
sary Therefore she selected the fin
est wig money could buy. So perfect
was the wig fitted to her head that
even some Of the players at the studio
were deceived and for a moment be-
lieved the star had died her hair for
the picture.

the heart-beats of the man he killed..
and by Poe's famous poem, "Annabel
Lee"
The plot follows: A baby boy has
been left TO the care OF his uncle, af-
ter his mothers death. This uncle
rears the boy with the greatest care,
hoping that he will develop into a lit
erary genius. The uncle's ambitions
for the young man seem about to be
realized when the youth becomes in
fatuated with young woman, who re-
ciprocates his love 10 such an extent
that they are completely wrapped MP
in each other. When the girl, Anna
bel" comes to take the young man TO
a garden party the uncle insults her
by saying that she is pursuing his
nephew like a common woman OF
the town" AS a result of the uncles
interference the young people finally
decide to separate.
Now come black and revengeful
thoughts TO the young man. Only that
day he has been reading The Telltale
Heart" and some of Poe's poems. He
thinks of the happiness that he and
his sweetheart might have If only his
uncle were out of the way. With all
the skill of Poe's character in The
Telltale Heart" he forms his plan to
stay MS ulNits
it is then that the saving grace OF
conscience demonstrates its power.
How the avenging conscience in this
case operates. and how it's influence
| in a mysterious manner is used TO pre-
vent a terrible tragedy, can best be
told by the picture itself. II seems as
/ if conscience were Gods way of shield
ing mortals from fatal sin.
The subtle working of the inner
conscience, beyond the power OF men
tai control, finds expression in the
weird visions that torture the cul-
prits brain. Avenging thoughts, such
as Poe might have conceived, are
made rea Ito the quaking youth. Re
lentless fate seems to drive him TO
despair until
But the end is the most unexpected
pa'x OF all and shows that suffering
mag teach virtue, that even the dark
est cloud may have its lining OF sill
yer, though the existence OF that silver
lining has been entirely unsupported.

Parcel Post SOciabIe.

The little folk Of the willing Work

well rendered just preceding the so

AT SPENCER SQUARE.

THE Avenging Conscience" to be
seen at Spencer Square tonight and
tomorrow, is a drama Of the mind,
completely visualized throughout and
with a thoroughly connected story.
Though il deals with the penance in
f1icted upon a murderer by his own
conscience, this penance is SO person
flied that the result is very graphic
narrative. This is brought about by
the use Of some extraordinary photo
graphic effects, which show the dead
man returning to haunt the living
murderer, who imagines, among other
things, that he can hear the heart of
the dead man still beating. THE
AvenRing Conscience" was suggested
by Edgar Allen Poe's famous story,
The Telltale Heart" (which contains
the idea of the murderer listening 10

The last car of oil has been applied
to the streets of the city. The last
load was deposited on the streets Sat
urday. Practically 10000 gallons of
oil have been used and the scarcity of
dust is proof of its efficiency as a
dressing for dusty roads. These oiled
streets are appreciated by the towns
people as well as by visiting motor
lists, who find it quite pleasant after
driving great distances along dusty
highways to run in upon these dust
less streets which lead to the pave
mentS at all points.

nnlIers Down 300 Feet.

The drill at the deep we'll in course
of drillings on the artificial ice plant
site is again running smoothly, two
castings having previously been broken
after depth of over $50 feet had been
reached A depth Of over 800 feet has
been reached since the last accident
was remedied and the drillers look
for no more such setbacks. 1t is
probable that it will be necessary to
drill about 200 feet more before the
