VON FALKENHAYN

Since Gen. Eric von Fa1kenhayn be- came chief of staff of the German ar
 mics, succeeding the discredited von Moltke, his ascendancy has gradually increased until it is now alleged that he yields a more despotic power than the Kaiser himself, whom he numbers among his devoted admirers. Won F'a1kenhayn's word is law not only throughout the German army, but in Austria, Bulgaria and Turkey as well, and from Belgium to Bagdad his sway extends. His supremacy is all the more remarkable inasmuch as before the war he was considered a second rale soldier. Ven Falkenhayn is fif- ty-four years old and has spent the greater part of his life in the army. As a young officer he was looked upon as a military misfit, and he was on the ragged edge of failure when he went to China and became governor-gener- al of Tien-tsin after the capture of that city by the allied troops. When he returned to Berlin after the Chi rese experiences he was cordially re- Ceived by the Kaiser and was made a member of the gneral staff of the ar my. He soon became a personal fa-

JEWS CELEBRATE
 PENTECOST FEAST

The feast of Shvouth or Pentecost will be observed by the Jews of this city and throughout the world, begin ming at sundown tonight. The or thodox Hebrews will celebrate the fes- tival for two days. Originally Pen tecost was the harvest festival of the Jews, but it now has a triple signifi- canoe, commemorating not only the agricultural industry of the ancient Jews, but also the promu1gation of the ten commandments on Mount Sinai, and the hftieth day of the exodus of the Jews from Egypt. The chief sig nif1cance of the feast now attaches to its observance hs the deca1ogue day Although the original festival has changed it's aspect, Jewry now ob- serves it as strictly as ever.
 Like other Jewish feasts, Pentecost has it's peculiar food. Shvuoth is as sociated with the batter cakes called ''blinzes,'' which consist of pancakes with cheese, raisins and spices in the center. The services in the syna- gogues are solemn and impressive. As the deca1ogue festival Shvuoth has profound significance not only for Jews, but for Christians and Mos Iems as well, since both of the later faiths have adopted the ten com n.and1nents as part of their law.

FRENCH DRAMA

The father of the classical drama in France, Pierre Cornei1le, was born at Rouen BIO years ago, to-day, June 6, 1906. He was sixteen years the sen for of Moliere, and thirty-three years older than Racine, but he survived the former by several years, dying in 1884, just a decade before the birth of Voltaire, the many-sided genius who upheld the traditions of the French drama as established by the three great contemporaries of the sev- enteenth century. Corneille's father was an advocate and Pierre was ed ucated for the legal profession. A love affair diverted him from the bar to poetry. A friend of the young advocate took him to see his mistress, and that f1ck1e young lady was so smitten with the lawyer that she cast

ITALY CELEBRATES
 CONSTITUTION DAY

This is Constitution Day. in Italy, and, next to the twentieth of Septem- Der. the greatest of that country's pa triotic holidays. The latter date marks the anniversary of the entrance into Rome in 1870 of the Italian army. Now that Italy is engaged in the long dreamed of task of the reclamation of fItaIia irredenta" Constitution Day is likely to be celebrated with more en- thusiasn than in years. A great pa rade, including soldiers, students and private citizens of all classes and con ditions, is usually the chief feature of the day in Rome. The procession marches to the Quirina1, the royal res idence, where the Italian colors are hoisted by members of the royal fam fly, and the bands play the national anthem.
 The constitution of united Italy is based on that granted in 184S to the former kingdom of Sardinia, although considerably expanded and 1iberalized. The executive power is vested in the king, who exercises it through res ponsib1e ministers. The Senate is composed of the princes of the royal members who are nominated by the king for life. The monarch's choice of Solons is confined to twenty-one categories of notables, including those
 filling high offices, men famous in lit erature, education, arts and sciences and other pursuits beneficial to the na- ton, and who pay taxes to the amount of $500 per year. The lower house of the Italian parliament has over 500 members elected directly by as many electoral colleges or districts. Depu- ties must be over thirty years of age, and those holding government posi- tions as well as priests, are ineligible

Only those who can read and write, and who pay taxes to the amount of $4 annually, are permitted to vote in the parliamentary elections although the latter provision does not apply to doctors, advocates, professors and members of learned societies.

The French stage had then existed less than a century, and Paris had but one theatre. Comedies genius en- abled him to vastly surpass the fee b1e efforts of his predecessors, and he has ever since been honored as the real founder of the drama in France.
