DEPTH BOMBS TO END HUNS
 STEEL SHARKS

CHICAGO, BIarch 30. Nothing on, above or in the sea is feared by crews of German submarines as m ch as depth bombs. This is the opinion expressed by Harry Lowe, able sea- man for the past thirty years, who would "rather sleep in a hammick, thank ye," than the best bed in the best hotel. and who says the depth bombs will yet "drive the skulking steel sharks from the waters" As Lowe enlisted at the British Canadian .ecruiting station in Chicago, for over seas service, he related his experiences on ships sunk by Teuton tcrpedoes.
 'I wen down with the lberian and with the Galicia," said Lowe. "The Iberian, one of the biggest ships of the I,eyland line wss sailing light from Liverpool to Boston, when at about 4:30 in the morning she was hit amid ships by torpedo. 1 was at the wheel trying to hold Ter steady in a deep fog.
 "The big ship quivered like dog struck by it's master and sank Tn fif- teen minutes. We lost two men. Both were Americans. A French torpedo boat took us at the call of the wire less and took the crew to Dunkerque. This happened on July 22, 1915.
 "When the Galicia was torpedoed- Oct. 10, 1917-we were struck near Queenstown Ireland. Twenty-four men were killed. Most of them died like rats in a hole. We saw the wake of the torpedo, but didn't have time t. dodge. The ship. .l8,000 tons-blew up and sank"
 Lowe said he was member of the crew of the Lusitania, but missed his berth when the biz liner sailed from New York on it's ill-fated voyage. "So, you see, I've escaped three torpedoes," !" said Lowe, as he shouldered his duffle bag and fell into line with nearly a hundred other recruits. He had wired his sister in MuScatine, Iowa, that he would soon be overseas and fighting the Kaiser.

The first sunshiny spring day in Seward reduced the attendance ct the work room to five, the lowest it has been since Christmas. While the de- sire to stay out in the sunshine is al- most irresistible it is well to bear in mind that the first spring days have brought on a resumption of the slaugh CT on the western front and they should be the signal for an increase instead of a slackening of effort on our part.

GIVE BEEFSTEAK DINNER

The losers in the recent "500' tournament gave a beefsteak dinner
 in five courses at the Hazelwood Sat urday night, which proved to be a most enjoyable occasion. High man Farwater and low man Green graced the respective ends of tke table and during the repast the "howS' anG the "whys" were discussed until the beginner. who was present crncluded that there "ain't no sech game" Fol lowing the spread "500" was again re- sumed at Georges place. Those en- toying the dinner were the high mer, Tarwater Urbach and Root, Anderson failing to show because he knew d job was framed up; low men, Kcatlng, Sexton, Romig and Green and the "umps", James and Friend.

Traditions Shed
A Glamour Ouer
Circus Families

The arstocracy of the stage has its
traditions and its cumulative glamour
no less than the aristocracy of birth.
There is a pride of lineage and accom-
plishment about such names as JEFF
ferson, Boucicault, Davenport. Barry
more and Drew quite as real as that
felt by the descendants of belted earls.
The circus, too. has its aristocracv.
Everything about circus life tends to
preserve and strengthen family ties.
The same people live together, work
and play together in their strange
wandering life from childhood to old
age, from one generation to another
and many performer day bears
name which sprang into fame more
than two centuries ago, when carts car
ried the owners crude trappings from
one town to another, and when a soil
tary press agent on a plodding mule
rode one day ahead to tack the hand
bills to the village bulletin board or to
wayside trees.
OF such stock comes May Wirth, the
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1918-01-27

daring little equestricnne of Charles
Dillingham's "Chcer Up!" acknowl-
edged queen of the ring to-day. At a
time when the circus had but one tent
and the band consisted of solitary
fiddler, John Wirth, great-great-g great
grandfather of the little star, was as
founding yokels by riding three times
around the ring while standing up
right.
May Wirth is an aristocrat, not only
by birth, but by surroundings and po-
sition. For there are as distinct castles
in the circus world as in Ward Meal
listers "4O0," and of these the riders
are the acknowledged leaders. Next to
them in rank are the clowns, for their
traditions, too, date back to the early
days Of primitive stagecraft. After
these come the aerial artists, the tight
rope walkers. etc.

NAPOLEON as a Human Being

vitality divergent readings as the Napo-
leon of Shaw's and Bahr's imagination
The dissimilarity is the outcome part
ly Of the wholly different purposes for
which they were created, and partly Of
the way this purpose was followed up
by tho two dramatists. Shaw wanted n
mouthpieco through which to speak out
his mind on many shortcomings, prin.
cipally English. The mouthpicce must
be as picturesque and strange rs pos
sible, and the sayings as clever. brill
liant and seemingly paradoxical as he
could make them, so that they would
be heard and laughed at by every one.
At that time. Irving, with his sonorous
voice, seemed to him the right inter
prefer, Napoleon the right vehicle for
that purpose Gas later on, in his Caesar
and Cleopatra" he employed Forbes
Robertson in a somewhat similar fash
ionD.
From this followed necessarily that
he was most concerned with the daz-
cling brilliancy Of his own utterances,
whether they fitted the situation or the
character to speak them or not His
only fear-as it was that of Wilde, the
other Irish writer-was Of being con-
sidercd dull. To steer clear of that re-
proach he sacrificed everything, and his
Napoleon thus became curious "mix-
tttm compositum," at least nine tenths
undiluted Shaw. A satirical pamphlet
in the form Of dialogue, of very high
and Illuminating order certainly, was
thus achieved, but by no means a
satirical comedy, with Napoleon as a
"hero."
1t was left to Bahr to do that. He
has succeeded. The reasons for that
are thrcefold: he approaches his sub

It's Tarkington's Turn
Last Year Stuart Walker Devoted Him.
self to Lord Dunsany's Wonder Plays
No.v He Turns to American Playwright

themselves And his genius lies in
that he can portray number of indi-
vidual characteristics and also show
the soul beneath them which makes
the. character person. Dunsany is
interested in human tendencies only
in so far as they lead to some ulti-
mate catastrophe. His genius lies in
presenting a generality in such per-
sonal form that every one who reads
or sees his story feels kindred I'M
derstanding- of the person, but of
the emotion that is being experienced
To preserve Mr.. Tarkington's en-
phasis in staging his story, the utmost
realism must be employed. By that
l do not mean crowding the scene with
odd bits of "local color" l mean that
the stage should present picture
which seems reminiscent to the au-
dicnce-the Baxter home should seem
similar to some home they've known.
And proceeding toward this ideal of
simple realism for all Of the scenes in
Seventeen" I have introduced none
of the mechanical illusions of the
theatre
In Lord Dunsanys plays the scene
should present q picture such as you
never actually saw, but such as you
have, or could have, imagined. That
scene must be imaginatively simple,
because the action of the Dunsany
plays is so concentrated and the stage
properties so important nothing must
be admitted into the scene that might
distract ear or eye. Dunsany's back
grounds must be treated broadly with
in as close boundaries as possible; in
this respect lies the particular value
of the 16-foot Portmantcau setting.
Then his stage properties stand forth
vivid and gettable-they must.
because they are more than symbols;
they objectify important ideas and
emotional values inherent in the plays
To achieve such striking and simple
imaginative effects it is sometimes
necessary, as in "The Gods of the
Mountain" to employ every mechani-
cal illusion of the theatre both in
lighting and coloring.
Does it sum up the contrast when I
say that Mr.. Tarkington's story is real
because it has actually been lived? 1t
must be presented in a recognizable |
home, because people you know are
always the same size YOU are, and
therefore live similarly. But the only
appropriate stage setting for Dunsany
must somehow suggest slice of in
fnity.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1918-01-27

between the great Irishman and the
author from Indiana in that they are
both Unsuitable students of human nat
ure. Both have delved deep into the
human heart. Both have acquired
great wisdom of the motives, instincts
express this knowledge with the tingc
of comedy that makes man seem at
once smaller and greater than his fate.
But in presenting their knowledge in
stories they use exactly opposite
methods Harrington deals with
human nature as shown in individuals
he particularizcs. Dunsany deals
with human nature as q set of single
forces-he generalizes. With Dunsanv
you don't think of the characters as
individual human beings. You think
of the feelings and emotions they are
experiencing, such as fear, hope, or
faith. The little girl in "Thc Golden
Doom" is not any particular little girl
you don't even care whether she has
name or not. But you do remember
that she made a poem and became
thereby powerful force that moved
kings and prime ministers.
On the other hand, Mr.. HARRINGTON
draws Jane, the child in Seventeen.
with such detail that you can't posi-
bly, think Of her in any other way than
as Jane. You know how she looks,
what she likes to eat, how her mind
works. Though she is force in
Willie's life, your interest centres on
the way she does things rather than
on the effect of what she does. She
is definite person, and you will prob
ably remark to some child of your
acquaintance, you're just like Janet"
Whereas you would never say, you're
like the child in The Golden DOOM"
Harrington is interested in the per-
sonal pecularities or cccentricities of
people for the oddly of the things
