Charles Strauss Resigns
Relinquishes $4,000 Place on
Water Supply Board

Charles Strauss, one of the three
commissioners of the Board Of Water
Supply which constructed the Catskill
Aqueduct, sent his resignation yester-
day to Mayor Hylan. The salary of a
commissioner is $4,000 a year.
Although the Mayor has no power to
remove the commissioners except on
charges. Mayor Hylan has repeatedly
declared that the board should be abol-
ished, and an attempt was made by
members Of the new Board of Estimate,
prior to their taking Office, to hold up
the letting of the contract by the board
for the extension of the aqueduct to
the development Of the Schoharie
watershed. There is bill pending in
the Legislature to abolish the board.
Mr.. Strauss pointed out, however.
that he had not been forced out of the
board, but had resigned because he be-
ieved the board was top-heavy and it's
present large organization unnecessary
for the completion of the comparatively
small amount of work left for it to do.
Mr.. Strauss was appointed a member
Of the board on February Z, 1911. The
other two members are Charles N.
Chadwick, who was appointed June Q,
1905. and John +. Calvin, who was ap-
pointed January %, 1911.
New-York tribune., 1918-03-20
By Heywood Rroun

PAN and the Young Shepherd" is
fanciful and that is good, but it is not
so admirable that Maurice Hewlett
should be conscious of his wings.
Here we have romance" he cries, this
megaphone man on the back of his
sightseeing pegabus. Plays with a
pose are the dynamite which destroy
the little round the corner theatres.
And yet Hewlett has some justiica-
ton in his evident consciousness of
having written an imaginative bit Of
drama. The literary quality Of PAN
and the Young Shepherd" is stressed
somewhat at the expense of drama,
but ut times this is q beautiful and
moving play.
The production is interesting, but
not always skilful, and the acting falls
short of the requirements. The play
tells the story of young shepherd
who wins q maiden from the moor who
has been struck dumb because she
thwarted Pan. For some reason, not
ascertained by this spectator, she left
the cottage fireside and sought the
moor again on windy night. Pan
planned to kill the girl and her lover,
but relented when another young per-
son sacrificed herself to him for her
love OF the shepherd. The big wind did
much to complicate things. SO loudly
did it howl and growl and whistle
through the better part of two scenes
that it was impossible to hear the
actors.
Fania Marinotf, who played the moor
maiden. did not do we'll. She lacked
grace. In scene in which she sought
to Indicate terror the spectator could
not fail to gather the impression that
she was playing a game known as walk
lng- yours stomach -out-of-j Joint pop
ularized by Jane; Of Tarkington's
Miss Marinof became more effective in
the last scene of the play.
Sidney Carlyle was an indifferent
young shepherd in spite of the fact
that he made & striking figure. His
voice and enunciation were trying.
Margaret Fareleigh as the self-sacr-
acing country girl played with skill
and understanding, and Joseph Macau-
lay was excellent as Geron, an old
shepherd. Frank Conroy made a per-
suasive Pan. The settings of the play
by Roy Mitchell are attractive, as were
the incidental music and songs by W
FRANKIE Harling. The dancing was de-
cidedly good. There was one earth
daughter in particular who flung her
self about with captivating abandon,
but though she had lines to say we
were not adroit enough to identify her.
