~ TS'ts
Coleman du Pont was born in Ken
lucky and started his working life in
The mines Of the Blue Grass State. He
stands today as one of the few sue
cessful men who have acquired their
positions by methods that will stand
scrutiny. He has been a producer
not stock jobber He has never an.
tagonized any class of people, Capital
and Labor alike admire him.
Without, self-advertisement he does
more charity than do most men. He is
an ardent advocate of good roads and
believes that really perfect system
Of highways will enhance the farmers
income and reduce the cost of living
to the cities. He has built roads and
given them to his state, always with a
sound business scheme to perpetuate
them and save them from being q
burden to the taxpayers.
He comes from family more Amer.
can than most-a family identified
With the building of the nation since
The Revolution. His grandfather was
Thomas Jefferson's most valued per.
;onal friend and advisor in the time
II great need during the dark days
ii the Republic.
The great Powder Company with
which he was formerly identified has
Implied our government with all its
owder at a price always named by
our government officials themselves
and never by the company.
Because of his great executive abil.
.ty and high standing in the business
world, some Of the shrevd pc.
litical minds In the country consider
him as being one OF the most likely
dark horses" for the Republican
nomination. They point to the fact
that his success in life would elimin.
ate any need for q friendly Colonel
House, or any other financial influence
standing ever behind the presidential
chair. Nor would he be compelled to
take orders from any man or group OF
men.
Another factor that the supporters OF
General du Point are pointing to is his
knowledge Of military affairs. For
sixteen years he has been identified
with the soldiery OF his state and ia
thoroughly alive to the necessity for
preparedness. He has also had
practical training in politics. hav.
ing been . delegate to a number OF
State and National conventions. and
serving as member OF the Republican
National committee for many years.
It is the splendid business training
of General du Pont that is pointing
the way for him to the nom
nation. For II is conceded on all
sides that the biggest problems of this
country at the close Of the European
war will be business problems, and
there are few men among those men
toned, who have had his experience
in coping with such huge problems
As manager Of constructive bust.
ness and as reorganizer. Coleman
du Pont stands in q class by himself.

RUTH ST. DENIS
DISCUSSES
DANCING.

Ruth s.. Denis, who dances with her
company at the Palace Theatre this
week. is a young woman who has stud
led out her own theory or bodily
RHYTHM and expression and follows her
own conclusions without reference 70
any school or any self-constituted
priests or priestesses of Terpsichore.
She saysinpart:
Several years ago an American girl
in Europe Isadora Duncan-did re-
markable thing, and this thing that she
did has changed the face of our the

STAGE FRENCHMAN
TO PASS WITH
THE WAR.
Exit the stage Frenchman.

Exit the stage Frenchman.
That this will be one OF the newt
able effects Of the war is the prog
nostlca6on Of James Lounsberry,
whose Gaelic comedy Characterization
in every Good Eddie" is one OF its
amusing features.
IN the face OF what the once fas-idi-
GUS and elegant boulevardier IS dong

think that bv the time the war - over
We shall have seen the last comic
Gallo character on the stage. The
stage Frenchman has always been
libel on his nation and sex, lust as
has been the stage lrishman. But with
this distinctions: We have never be-
Neved the libel on the Irishman, but
we have not only believed the worst
about the Frenchman. but We have
compounded the felony by attrlbuung
to him all manner OF vices which ne
never dreamed Of.
Thanks 10 our acquaintance with
the Celt, we know that the stage
Irishman is just stage lrishman. Re
garding the stage Frenchman, however.
we do not all have the advantage or
knowing the type caricaturcd. II IS
needless for me 10 say that there never
has been d such . Frenchman as
Monsieur Rougemont. The point that
I want 70 make is that by the time
the war is over and France begins 10

dead: when the French dramatists,

TO their studies and begin 10 drama

Perils of Dramatic Adaptation
as Viewed by Leo DitrichStein

JIG which has accepted and liked the
characters of q book seems 10 have a
desire 20 see them realized in flesh and
blood. Here, TOO, the dramat.st must
exercise groa. caution and tar-seelng
judgment Frequently he must omit
the very characters IN the play which
have most appealed 20 him IN the book,
and he must be prepared satisfactorily
10 account for the omission to the
BOOKS public.
Under play limitations. too. he must
change some of the characters and
construct a new story that must bear
resemblance 20 the book story. In
fact, his only chance TO write play is
10 read the book carefully and then
throw il aside and forget as much Of II
as he possibly can. and then he must
get outside himself and be able TO re-
Jet what has impressed itself most
upon him. The dialogue of the book,
too, would seem stilted and unreal IN a
play except in the rarest instances.
Things IN the book that pass by the
reader and are accepted by him because
of the beauties of style or the clever
ness Of the authors obscurty, or spe-
cial pleading, would be absolutely raw
in the fixed quantities seen and done
on inc stage. IT NuCU llaI tci0 are ! VII
damental. as they frequently are. the
drametst must supply something ln
their place or reconstruct them 20 bear
scrutiny.
That which is done, that which the
audience sees, is the important
thing IN a play and consequently the
motive for the thing done. Form
means everything 70 the dramatist. II
means little 70 the novelist. He can
atone for multitude OF sins by style.
Forget the book and dramatize Its
spirit.
when peace has settled some one will
write play that will be the Iargest
and truest expression of the genius Of
the people Of she United States. But
IL will not be play that will express
the people of to-day We are changing
rapidly i'm our standards. our ideals,
our characters. We are reconstructing,
reforming in every phase OF life the

BASE STEALING FALLEN OFF
Are Players Slowing Up, or Are Catch.
ers Becoming More Proficient
in Checking Attempts?

A decided change has come over the
base-stealing ability of players during
the past few years and gives rise to
the question: Are the base runners
slowing up, are the catchers becoming
more proficient in checking attempted
steals, or has the straightaway steal
given way to the sacrifice hit and the
hit and run play? In both the National
and American leagues there has been a
marked falling off In base stealing, a
feature of the game that has done
much to add to its popularity.
No team in baseball today even ap-
preached the New York Nationals Of
1911. 1912 and 1913, the three-time
pennant winners. The old team av-
eraged 800 steals a season over a
stretch of three years, while this sea-
son the team that passed the 200 mark
is the exception rather than the rule.
In the National league base stealing
has been falling off for some time,
but the American league kept up well
until this season. In 1911, six teams
in the American league stole more
than 200 bases during a season, and in
each of the three succeeding cam
paigns five teams went above this
mark.
