ny LAWRENCE REAMER.

When George Broadhurst last night
made his temperance at the theater
which bears his name in the role OF
dramatist as well as manager he seiec-
ted as the corner stone OF his new play
story which had already measured UP
fiction magazine. The new play was
called wild Oats Lane" Its corner
stone was Gerald Beaumont's story The
Gambling Chaplain" There were three
acts and an epilogue necessary 20 ex-
plain the dramatic amplification of this
fable Nothing in II was so important
however as the character OF a human
and benevolent priest who dwelt in
Wild Oats Lane and dispensed In the
broadest sense OF the word. the charity
which lay in his power.
This role fell. appropriately enough. to
Maclyn Arbuckle, who acted the kindly
priest 70 the life. He gave the doles
from the special fund to the suffering
boy who needed Colorado. He even
started him on the right path when he
came back He helped the erring daugh-
ter OF the lane to a place with MILL
ner Thus on every side his good deeds
took the practical form Of helping those
who might have fallen deeper but for his
good will. He was gambling chap
lain in that he took chances on the good
inherent in every human wreck He not
only risked his confidence, but his cash
as well.
Mr. Arbuckle, with his clear and richly
unctious speech, made real character
out of the large hearted cleric. All his
faith In his fellow man, his benevoience,
his confidence in the good VIII or every
suffering fellow were brought out with
real elouuence. 1t was finely drawn
and clearly executed portrait OF human
kindness blended with shrewdness and
optimism. Mr.. Arbuckle's achievement
was SO out of the ordinary run OF his
trionism that 1t would have been notable
under any conditions.
The actors achievement was more dis
tinguished last night from the fact that
| its significance alone was clear. The
other characters were more or less nebu-
| lous. Men came and went In the living
room Of the rectory. Why they came
| and why they went was not always
perceptible Some of the spectators grew
peevish over their inability to see things
| clearly and went away. Others were
| more patient and realized that they
could at all events observe the charac-
ter of the good parson in It's evolution
and observe its reaction even when an
ungrateful object of his far reaching
benevolence came home and then wanted
to carry away his foster daughter. Al
ter while that occupation grew tire
some. Then 1t really was time to 60
home.
Mr.. Arbuckle made q speech after the
second act because the audience like him
so much and made no effort to conceal
| It's recognition of q fine study of char
| acter. Richard Barbee played with
| genuine feeling the part Of youth who
| was saved by the good will of the par
son. Douglas Wood. Marion Coakley,
Edna May Oliver. really natural In the
spitefulness of a cherished housekeeper
and an industrious funny woman who
was not to be identified on the program
helped Mr.. Rrbuckle through the even
| ing. 1t cannot be said. however. that
| much progress toward success was to
| be noticed even at the end Of the even
| ing.

Louis Pasteur
lNouth's Cnmnaninnl


Wedne sday, the 9th of December.
is The one hundredth anniversary cf
the birth of Louis Pasteur. On the
long roll of scholars and workers IN
science who during the nineteenth
century made such extraordinary ad-
dtions to mans knowledge Of nature
and 10 his control over it. pasteur'S
name IS one of the most distinguish
ed. When he began his work. even
the most learned men had only the
dimmest ideas about the causes Of
such common natural processes as
fermentation and putrefaction. No
one knew what infection or conta-
gion was, or how to control epide-
mic diseases. No one dreamed that
il was possible to protect wounds
agains, infection or by artificial
means to render mankind immune
TO some of the most mysterious and
surely fatal of diseases. All our
knowledge of those important sub
lec comes from Pasteur'S discover
les or from experiments based on
them. Some Of that knowledge is now
so general and concerned with mat
terS of such everyday experience that
we do not realize how recently it
was gained and how remarkable was
the intellectual triumph that gave X
to us.
Pas;eur was forty years old when
he proved to the world that fruit
juices arc turned into wine or vine
gar and that sweet milk is turned
into sour milk by the presence and
growth in the liquid OF bacteria, which
he had learned how to identify. A
little later he showed that the put
refaction in foods is also owing to
bacterial action. Lord Listers discov-
cry of antisepsis, which has done so
much to advance modern surgery,
was based on Pasteur's explanation
OF what causes septic condition.
Still later the great French chemist
showed that various diseases of men
and beasts are caused by bacterial
infection, and he worked out a meth
cd of preventing such diseases by
inoculating the subject with a cul-
ture of the offending germs that by
artificial means had been deprived
of their virulence. His most famous
exploit of that kind was isolating the
germ of hydrophobia and discovering
a preventive treatment for that
dreadful disease. II is only the truth
to say that we owe all the subse-
quent advances in the control and
cure of germ diseases, as well as the
merciful achievements of antiseptic
surgery, to the genius and the labors
of Louis Pasteur.
He was one of the most gentle and
sweet-natured of men, and one of the
most devoted and Industrious work
ers in science. His many pupils loved
him as much as they admired him,
and the successes that many of them
won in the fields of chemistry and
medicine they were always ready to
attribute to the inspiration and the
example of the master. Work. work
all the time was the motto Of his
life. On his deathbed he whispered
to the grieving pupils who stood
round him: "Where are you? What
are you doing? We must work."
SO died a tireless seeker after
knowledge and an eager servant of
his fellow men.
