CARRIE REYNOLDS CRITICISES
CRITICS.

Miss Carrie Reynolds, who plays the
leading feminine role in "The Blue En-
velope," which comes to the Providence
Opera House for the week beginning
Monday night, has taken up the cudges
for and against the critics of music and
drama and the players who portray
stage characters. Miss Reynolds feels
that much more harm is done by the
wielders Of the critical pen, literally
speaking, than is generally supposed
even by the critics themselves. In speak
ing Of one remote instance where an un-
suspecting critic curbed the career OF a
most promising young girl, she said;
"a little friend Of mine who was play
ing a small but important part in The
School GirP when i was touring in the
title role few years ago. had been very
i'll for two days. We had been playing
week of one night stands and she had
contracted a cold one night while playing
in Il rickety old theatre, called the Cri-
teriOn, out in Indiana. So weak had she
become that, on the opening night in
Cincinnati, she could scarcely get to the
theatre, and it was simpy her determi-
nation that gave her strength to play
her part. The result was that she gave
rather listless performance. The next
morning a critic on an influential paper
scolded her numerically, attacked her
personality, her faded looks, her incon-
ception of the part and even went so far
as to say she had better go back to the
shop from whence she came. Now, that
little girl was rather clever and her fam
lily was so situated that she was de-
But that criticism positively crushed
her. The fight she had been putting up
all season, and it was "a plucky fight,
was all taken out of her. She gave up
the stage and the last / ever heard Of
her was such a sad story that it de
presses me every time / think of it. A
moment of thought; reasonable ques-
ton put to the manager OF the COM
pany, would have saved a heart from
breaking and would have retained for
the stage one who would have been a
credit to it. | could recount numerous
just such instances. Ones health and
the various other conditions under which
one works to almost unbelievable cir
cumstances are rarely considered.
"On the other hand, | know a very
great number of critics; men who have
won distinction in their life's work, who
have helped, through just criticism,
many who would otherwise have fallen
into ruts that would have kept them in
eclipse, no matter how seriously and
conscientiously they worked to improve.
Those are men who feel with the play
ers; whose artistic sense conforms with
that of the player and whose natures
grasp and comprehend the hardships
under which the player works. They
know it a physical impossibility for a
woman to sing well, act well, dance well
and look well every day in the year.
They know there are days when they
themselves cannot write an intelligent
review of play to save them from per
dition."

Sometimes you hear men, sensible

ASK such men n short question. Ask
them, "Out OF what war;
Did Mr. Wilson keep us out OF the
European war? No. He has himself
'n formal address to congress spoken
of the European war rs "a war with
which we have nothing to do, n war
whose causes do not touch u.s." How
could Mr. Wilson keep us out Of war
with which we have nothing TO do and
whose causes do not touch us?
Did he keep the rest OF the western
hemisphere out OF the European WARP
the world is involved In 1t; the only
people IN It are the colonies Of Euro

Did Mr.. Wilson keep us out Of war
with Mexico? No. In his term more
Americans have been killed by MeXi-
cans and moro American property has
been destroyed by Mexicans than by
Spanlards during the whole Spanish
war. In his term we have seized a
Mexican port and have sent our entire
regular army and militia to fight McXl-
cans. In his term Mexican armed
forces have invaded American soil and
fought battles against our people with

President Taft went through two
Mexican revolutions during his term
the revolution against Dlaz and the
revolution against Madero. American
lives were safe I'm Mexico during that
time No Mexican cities were seized
by Americans and no armed Mexicans
invaded the United States while Mr..
Taft was I'm the White House. Yet Mr..
Taft never thought OF asking the
American people to vote for him be-
cause he kept us out OF war with Mex
ico. He put an embargo on arms so
that American weapons would not be
sent across the boundary, and he re-
fused to interfere In Mexican affairs.
when he left Office MeXlcans liked
Americans, and Americans were safe
I'm Mexico. Since he left office Mexi-
cans hate Americans and Americans
dare not remain in Mexico. Did Mr..
Wilson keep us out of war with Mexi-
co? Not If words mean anything.
Mr.. Wilson did not keep us out OF
the European war, and he did not keep
us out Of war with Mexico.
Out Of what war, then? Detroit

The Republican party has selected
a standard bearer whose utterances
from day to day justify the people
who chose him. Not only does he
bring before the country the short
comings OF the Administration that
owes its existence to a divided Re-
publicanism but his criticism is every
where constructive.
He tells what must be done and will
be done 10y the party he represents to
prevent wastCfulnCss and extravaganza
i'm the governmental expenditures and
10 put n stop To the vacillating policy
that has caused other nations TO be-
lleve that the United States has no in
tCntion of backing up Its demands
made In the interests of justice and
humanity.
Most vulnerable OF all points In the
Democratic armor Is It's foreign policy.
Primarily this is because of the spoils
system by which men trained In the
consular and diplomatic service
through long years, have been displac-
ed to make room for politicians and
friends of politicians, whose sole claim
TO prefcrment was their services TO the
Democratic party.
"If l am elected president OF the
United States" said Mr.. Hughes last
night 81 propose that every man
put I'm charge of an important depart

discharge The duties OF that depart

BUSY GAY BEFORE
MASQU5 5HtDE BALL
'1ircmcn Made Five Runs
as the Result Of one
Blaze Yesterday.

For several years there generally
have been many fire aarms the day
of the annual masquerade bal. Of the
Tulsa firemen, and yesterday was no
exception. AS the result of blaze
which destroyed Il barn at IQ2 South
Boston avenue, 1t S:25 o'clock yes
tcrday morning. there were four other
alarms, and the department was on
the move for the greater part Of two
hours.
The cause of the barn fire is not
known, but when discovered it had
made great headway and the building
was destroyed before many .treans
Of water could be played into the
flames. The building WAS the prop
orty of wi liam Fewel who places his
tomobile stored in the building. but it
was taken out without damage.
While the firemen were fighting
the barn blaze another alarm was
sent in from seventh and Lansing
where woman uOintod TO the barn
blaze and said "Thcrc's the fire right
OvSr there" The department mem
bCrs no sooner had returned to their
task than three other alarms were sent
IN from Fifth and Detroit, where
short circuits caused by the original
fire had caused fires at SIS South
Boston and 102 South Cincinnati
and in another building on South Gin
cinnat. No damage resulted to other
than the electric fuse boxes on ac-
count of the short circuiting of eicc-
trio wires.
