RUPEE LEGAL TENDER.
Innovation Is Only Provisional I'm.
I'll British Coin Arrives.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
CAIRO, Egypt. April 1.-The Indian
rupee has just been made legal tender
in Egypt. and large quantities of the
coins have been brought into circuIa-
tion.
There has for some time been short
age of silver and other change in Egypt
owing to the great influx of troops. A
considerable quantity of newly minted
Egyptian coin was brought from Eng
land last year. but it proved insuffi-
cient to meet the local demand. Some
of the consignments brought from Eng
land were lost at sea. and since it
would take some time to replace them
the Egyptian government decided for
a time at least to use the Indian rupees,
large quantities of which are available
The innovation is only u provisional
one until sufficient new coin be

Exercise Inalienable Right.

1.-THE 900 who compose our membership
exercise their inalienable right of hold
ing an opinion on every conceivable sub
ject. including the relations of this gov
ernment with foreign powers. and this
right they hold and exercise in common
with the rest Of tho hundred million
Americans.
This broadly does no great harm be-
cause. however. unwise the opinion thus
individually held. no one else is COM
mitted by its expression.
Our form of government provides
that the duty and obligation of voicing
the opinion Of this nation in it's inter-
course with foreign nations rests with
and is imposed upon our chief magis-
trate. When he speaks for US in the
course Of that Intercourse he speaks
for all Of us. 1t is a very great-indeed,
very terrible-responsibilit for q
man to bear at any time.
To-day. with a world drenched in
blood. writhing in anguish for those
already dead or manned, the RESPONSE
bility is immeasurably great, immeas-
urably terrible.

"The Birth of a Nation"

No theatrical entertainment in re-
cent years has caused such widespread
interest as "The Birth of Nation,
the master work of David w. Grifnth,
which will begin its third week at the
New National with next Mondays mat
inee. The playhouse has been crowded
at each of the two daily presentations
during the past and current weeks. No
detail has been sighted that makes for
the perfect projection of the story on
the screen, which gives visually COM
plete and accurate idea OF the stress
and storm of the upheaval that was
essential to the cementing of the states
of the Union into an indissoluble ma
ton. And with 1t all there is a ro-
nance, with love finally triumphant
after many heartburnings Each lnc1-
der. Is emphasized with music, orig
inal, or carefully selected. and played
by a special orchestra of thirty pieces.
