CAN'T HYPNOTIC WIFE
FIFTEEN FEET AWAY
Husband, Mex: Door Neighbor,
Wants Peace: She Doesn't.

Fifteen feet is the surveyed distance
between the respective dwellings Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Alexander s. Brown in
Freeport, L. l., but. according to Mrs.
Brown, it might just as well be fifteen
oceans for all the conjugal pleaAntries
that will ever take place between them
again.
A year ago Justice Frederick f.
Crane, in granting her separation on
the ground of cruelty. suggested that
they take year to find some way Of
reconciliation for the sake of their two
children. Soon afterward Mrs. Brown
moved with her brother TO her old
home. a scant fifteen feet away from.
her husbands house, where she has
since been running dry goods store.
Mr.. Brown. who is retired con-
tractor and amateur hypnotist, asserts
that on Saturday. January 29, the legal
separation ends and that on that date
he will knock at Mrs. Browns door and
present himself as her husband. He
feels that he has given ample proof
of his constancy by leaving his win
dow shades up so that Mrs. Brown
could look in on his little hypnotic
parties. Mrs. Brown says she has no
intention of answering that knock on
Saturday.

fore the cause became known.

This committee found things never

would as soon change it or modify II
as I would change the conception Of

At this point Chief Magistrate Nc
Adoo sent out the following statement:
Certain features of tho, ballet OF
The Faun' and 'Scheherazade' are
deemed by those who saw them as be
ing Objectionable and injurious 10 the
public morals.
AT the conference here this morn
ing Mr.. Brown. the manager. promised
20 remove these Objectionable features
and 20 withdraw any emphasis from
certain actions and situations hitherto
presented in these ballets. His good
faith IN this matter is TO be tested by
the subsequent performances
1--WE will tone down the perform
ance in spots" Mr. Brown said. I'VE
have received no formal order. Any ac-
ton taken will not be mandatory. IL Is
merely a request 10 eliminate the OBJ

The Faun,' where the scarf IS used.
In the future it is probable that the
scarf will only be kissed

out of a masterpiece an obJectonaole

the paintings, as 10 make the changes

Before the Emperor of Germany
would witness this production he gave

do YOU suppose the censor did? Asked
that the performance be repeated FOR
"The most prudish of Europeans
have seen this production without ad-
verse comment. IL was left for the
gloriously free L. S. A. to estab-
. lish censorship. The ballets do
nothing more than show the poses
and gestures Of old Greek vases. There
is really no dancing
Mr.. Barber was the only one Of the

"All care TO say about the matter"
he said. lis. that the management has
agreed to modify the production enough
