publishers and the pusillanimous &C.
ton of others in suspending Irish pub
lications are signs of surrender. This
is defeatist policy in the field of lit
erature, the field above all others in
which we should now exert our utmost
efforts.
There has been no truce in the end
less warfare on the Irish race. The
war has increased the number of in
trigues against the aspirations of our
people, and the assaults on our prin-
ciples are more violent than during
any period in the last generation. We
are openly accused of being "slackers,"
and we give color to the charge by
Stacking in our own defense!
While great armies Of soldiers in
whose veins flows Irish blood are
shedding that blood for the unim-
peachable principles of freedom for
which their ancestors have contended,
there are those in civil life-in pro-
tected tranquillity-whose supineness
weakly refuses to guard the purity of
Irish fame.
While our brave youths are dying
their ambushed foes are lying. The
truths that would shield the Irish
name are unuttered because the
mouthpieces of Irish opinion are being
! closed by their owners-or masters.
1t is but recently that the Carson
ties sent broadcast throughout the
world statement that charged the
Irish with enmity to America and with
treason to the whole system of free
civilization. This statement was pub
lished in thousands of American
newspapers. 1t was read-and be-
lieved-by millions. It was unan-
swered by the Ancient Order of Hi
bernians, the representative organiza-
\ tion of the Irish race in America, be-
cause of the recent suppression of the
Orders monthly magazine--the Ma
tional Hibernian-for years the ve-
hicle of its official expression. These
millions, therefore, who know little of
Irish matters except what they read,
must accept our silence as confes-
sion Of our guilt-or they must have

All the world knows the story Of
the Madonna which was dislodged by
German shell-fire from it's perch on
the tower of the parish church at Al
bert during the first mad rush Of the
Huns through France in 1914. The
statue did not fall, nor was it greatly
damaged, but the base was SO shat
tered that it hung precariously over
the main road from Amiens to Ba-
paume, which passed under the very
walls Of the beautiful old church. For
some reason, when the red tide of
war swept westward through Albert,
the Hun did not complete the destruc-
tion of the tower, and the statue still
maintained it's strange poise after the
invaders had been rolled back by the
battle of the Marne. Those were the
days of great hope. France was fight
ing with skill and determination. Brit
ain was steadily increasing her small
but wonderful army, and the Russians
were advancing almost at a gallop
through East Prussia. In fact, there
were optimists who thought Germany
would sue for peace before Christmas
Christmas, 1914! Some hint Of the
trend of popular thought was given by
the quaint conceit which grew up in
the hearts of the people, namely, that
when the Virgin Of Albert fell Gas fall
she must, in the opinion of all who
saw the statue) the war would end in
a victory for France and her allies.
But the war did not end, nor did the
statue fall, and the opposing armies
settled down to nearly four years of
trench warfare, with the odds greatly
in favor of the Hun, and success con-

An interesting headline attraction, a
musical Scotch number, another that
causes "roars of laughter" and "a mil

attractions of the bill at the Cosmos
Theater this week. The headline act,

it's kind in long time. The girls are
especially attractive and each does a

really says funny things a-plenty. The
Gordon HighlanderS, a trio of Scotch
entertainers, offer music on novel in

Polls,

The Poll players have essayed no easy
task this week by selecting Sweet
hearts" in continuing their popular run
Of musical comedy. An appealing and
colorful little operetta, it requires the
finesse of acting and will not do with
less. Its enthusiastic reception by a
large audience last night. however. in
dictated that it will be one of the major
hits of the company's stock season.
The story is familiar. The romantic
happenings that follow the discovery Of
a little girl in a tulip bed near Bruges,
Belgium. and her marriage to a prince
after it is developed that she Is lost
princess, were worked out by the prin-
cipals in a manner creditable for first
night effort. Belgian costumes worn
IN the play gave the. audience a feeling of
nearness to the great struggle now in
grogress over there" The ease with
which the players. principally the
chorus. wore their wooden shoes ap-
peared to be relished particularly.
Eulalie Young and Billy Lynn gave
wooden shoe Dance while Matt Ham
ley. Ralph Nichols and others seemed
equally at home in the cumbersome
footwear. Maude Gray. as Sylvia, the
lost princess; Henry Coote, as Franz,
the prince travelling incognito. and
Roger Gray, as Mikel Mikeloviz, in
search of the princess whom he had
left in the tulip bed. are assigned the
principal roles. The chorus gave Just
the touch of daintiness required in the
dances.

Belasco.

With their present impartial cordially
toward the stage, Washington theater-
goers turned readily from recent ad-
ventures in syncopation to grand opera
In numbers that exceeded the Belasco's
seating capacity last evening.
& The auditors reaped rich musical re-
ward. The San Carlo Grand Opera COM
pany sang Aida in a manner to win
enthusiastic plaudits of an audience which
was socially distinguished and bore evil
denee of being highly disseminating.
Steiia Demette, who has a rich mezzos
soprano voice, invested the role OF Am.
neris with dramatic value that enhanced
the beauty and spirit of her singing Es-
pecialiy well received was the famous duet
OF Amneris and the captive princess, Aida,
who aroused her JEALOUSY. The title role
was sung acceptably by Louisa Darciee,
who appeared in the place of Elizabeth
Amsden, who could not sing because of
a cold.
The male roles were well sung, and this
extends to male chorus, which was par
ucularly effective in the temple scene
and In the resonant, martial ensemble
marking the entry of the triumphant
Rhadames into Thebes.
Manuel Salazar brought to the role of
Rhadames mellow, flexible tenor voice,
and the baritone. Joseph Roger, was ac-
corded frequent appreciation. He sang
Anonasro, Aida's father. The bass parts,
Ramphls and the Egyptian king, were
well sung by Pietro de Biasi and Natalie
Cervi
The President and Mrs Wilson, diplo-
matte representatives. Army and Navy
officers and other notable persons were
in the audience The performance last
evening was benefit for the District of
Columbia Chapter of the Red Cross.
Preceding the overture the orchestra
played national airs of the allies. Ii
seemed fitting that Verdi, son Of one of
the allied nations, should have contrib
uted the opera Of the evening.

Photoplay Features.
Loew's Columbia.

la Tosca," with Pauline Frederick
as the heroine, photoplay of Sardou's
tragic romance, is having it's first show
ing in Washington at Loew's Columbia
the early half of the week. In her por-
trayal of a character which distin-
guished actresses and singers have
made familiar to the stage. the screen
star pictures the capricious allurements
and passions with which the author has
invested the Roman singer, together
with splendor of period costumes
which add to unusual personal charm.
Frank Lessee varies his representations
of kindly gentlemen of leisure to pre-
sent a ''Scarpia" of dramatic excellence;
the large cast contributes it's share to
the general success of the pictures, and
the scenic beauty of environment con-
veys an atmospheric sense of the Rome
of 1900, with its blending of the church
and the law. A farce sketch built on a
jazz band and motion film reviews of
current happenings at home and abroad
supplement the bill.
Garden.
Henry B. Walthall is pictured in His
Robe of Honor at Moore's Garden
Theater, the first three days of this
week, as Julian Randolph, a young
attorney who attains eminence by ques-
means and then attains honor
through the interest and love of a
woman whose clear perception of right
becomes his inspiration,
1t is a story of present-day corrupt
politics, with occasional intervals of
doubtful relationship between men and
women who represent the central fig-
ures in the narrative The settings,
both interior and exterior, are impress
sive, and particular interest is created
by crowded courtroom during the
progress of a famous trial.
The chief feminine role is taken by

An unusual picture for William s.

matte action genuine heart interest.
So lacking in manliness is Jack Stur-
CESS that his father exiles him to, the
klondike, not to return until he has
thoroughly reformed. Reformation
seems to be- beyond the ken OF the pam
pered young rounder. and he imne-
diately becomes involved with ques-
tionable characters in his new environ
ment. Yukon Ed, who has just return
ed over the long white trail to the
same camp where Sturgess is living,
forces him to marry girl named Ruby
and when she dies, as the result of ex-
posture trying to rescue her husband
from a storm in which he lies unpro-
tected in drunken stupor. he sends
the husband to eternity with her.
The contrasts in type. environment
and outlook upon life are vividly

Lottie Gibson and her nimble feet are
