Have tragedy and wickedness taken
so easily to the haunts and habits OF
virtue? Can it be true, when death
and violence stalk so dramatically In
front OF the soda counter, that men
who never drank before prohibition
are taking by thousands to the red
stuff now?
Surprises are so frequent that no

Hoyt's Plays.
"a Trip to Chinatown" Given in San
Francisco in 1890.

To THE New YORK HERALD: Refer
ring to Charles Zimmerman's letter as
to the production of Charles Hale
Hoyts "A Trip to Chinatown" / wit
messed it's first regular performance
early in the spring of 1890 at the Bush
Street Theater in San Francisco. The
fact is indelibly impressed on my MEM
ory, for voice from an orchestra seat
back of me gave me a CHEEKY greeting.
1t was that OF May Yohe-before she
was Lady Francis Hope-who had just
landed after flying visit to Australia.
Hoyt was managing his company in
San Francisco. l first made his ac-
quaintance in Boston in the sos, when
he conducted a column called "All
Sorts" in the Boston Post and was also
musical and dramatic critic of that
paper.
"a Bunch of Keys" dealing with the
humorous features of hotel service, was
Hoyt's first success. He died in 1900.
All the titles OF his plays began with
the indefinite article "A Milk White
Flag" "A Texas Steer" "A Parlor
Match" "A Tin Soldier" &c.

Conditions in Germany.
Members Of the Middle Class Said
to Be Those Who Suffer.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: The let
ter from TX" on conditions in Germany
gives wrong idea of the situation.
The writer Of the letter, like most
tourists living in hotels, received, no
doubt. a general idea from observations
taken in the prominent business and
residential sections, but did not see
deeper than the surface. which repre-
sents the wealthy. the laboring and prof
iteering classes.
The good. stable. educated middle
class is suffering terribly. A peculiar
incident showing the sad state of af-
fairs is-told me. The sexton of church
changed his position to that of dock
laborer at $500 marks a week, while
the pastor Of the same church earned
only $500 marks a month. This in
formation comes to me from the clergy
man himself and us absolutely true.
= There Is such distress and suffering
among this educated middle class, par
ticularly among old people. who for
merly lived on a pension or fixed in
come, that persons will now stay in bed
one entire day every week so as to
forego the necessity of eating and 10
overcome the pangs of hunger.

When the best seller meets its al
most inevitable fate and Is trans
ferred to the stage various emotions
are certain to be aroused In the minds
or those who admired the novel In
its original form. Only the mex
perienced hope to find the first SAVIOR
of the story preserved. II there is
moderate diversion for the spectator
who sees in their dramatic guise the
characters he has learned to love in
another form, protest is mild.
The less interested man in the
theater is Indifferent as to whether
the story is justly represented or not
so long as he is entertained. It is
the uncompromising and more OF less
unworldly admirer OF the novel who
expects to have It's finest qualities
retained in any theatrical use OF the

Java's Population Dense.
Belgium Has a Rival for First Place
in the Census Records.

To THE New York HERALD: You pub
lished recently an extract from the De-
partment OF Commerce bulletin in
which were recorded data as to the
density of population in various coun-
tries. The Department of Commerce
should be good enough authority for
any one. But suspect the figures you
quote are decidedly doubtful
Certainly the data for Java are mis-
leading. There are in round numbers
35.000,0o0 people on $4,000 square
miles. That figures about 729 to the
square mile and makes Belgiums claim
to first place seem rather shal<y. The
above figures could have been checked
in the Encyclopedia Britannica by any
one. To be sure. the last figures on
Java's population are of 1905 and only
80, O000 900 are shown; but more recent
figures show the higher population.
Porto Rico. according to the Bri-
tannica has 1.11S.0OO people on 3.435
square miles, or about 325 to the square
mile.
If our income taxes are ueed to
gather such data as the above we are
getting rather poor value.

Would 1t Work Hard II II Did Not
Have to Earn a Living?

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: should
like to ask your correspondent Louis NJ.
Eilshemius If he thinks that II artists
and writer's were pensioned. as he sug
gests. they would continue to work. The
immortal Esop relates that when the
hen was well fed she ceased to lay.
However. what would be the test of
genius. which alone. I presume, would
entitle writer or an artist to a pen
sion? Would he be taken at his own
estimate or would he be required first
to produce a work of genius? In the
latter case fancy that he would not
need pension.
What seems to mo a better scheme
than Mr.. Eilshemius's would be the en-
dowment Of literary and artistic bu-
reau to encourage struggling aspirants
to fame by examining and publishing
their works when worthy. AS It is now
an unknown writer has the utmost diff

ton Of Mammon for the Muse does not

Those Roaring Seaplanes.

the authors ability to hedge his char

BILE to the mechanism of the stage,
become In the new form OF his fic-
tion the more or less stereotyped fig
ures Of the stage. The resemblance
between them and their prototypes
of the authors Imagination is slight
indeed.
Naturally the admirer OF the book
cannot control his disappointment.
Yet there is no ground in this emo
tion for predicting disaster for the
enterprise. There may be in the re-
suit all the qualities that make up
popular success for the larger public
that does not insist that all the quail
ties of the novel shall be retained.
This has been the fate of dramatic
version of IF Winter Comes" in Eng
land, which has again shown the In
evitable results of wrestling work Of
imagination out of one medium and
transferring 1t to another. Those
who were most enthusiastic over the
novel failed to find its charms In the
play which was distilled from A. s.
NJ. HUTcHINsoN's material. On the
other hand, those who were unfamil-
lar with or Indifferent concerning the
original found certain interest in
the drama.
It may have been that they knew
the important secret of enjoying a
play made from novel, which is to
recognize that the delicacy and sub
tlety of character drawing possible in
book cannot be counted on to in
fluence the quality of stage work.

Philharmonic New Field.

The Philharmonic Society, which
has reached the ripe age of eighty
one years, retains the initiative char
acteristic of organizations with a big
purpose. The chairman Of its board
of directors, CLARENCE H. MAcKAY,
announced yesterday the new edu-
cational plan Of the society, which
includes features as novel to the
routine Of most symphony orches-
tras as they are praiseworthy.
AS a part Of Its responsibilities as
the oldest musical organization in
this country, the directors Of the
philharmonic have outlined def
mite educational policy. This is to
include, in addition to its regular
season, a brief series of concerts in
the great hall of the City College, at
Carnegie Hall, in the Cooper Union
and at the Commercial High School
In Brooklyn, besides single concerts
at such we'll known educational in
stitutions as Princeton, Yale, Vassar,
Smith, Mount Holyoke and Connec-
ticut College.
Thus will the artistic ministrations
of the orchestra be shared in its edu-
cational concerts by many who but
for this new policy might not at a
particularly susceptible age have the
advantage Of hearing music under
conditions which will render it's in
fuence most advantageous. Science
will in certain cases be called to fur
ther the aims Of art, as some of these
concerts will be broadcast by radio
to extend their influence still farther.
What might be called educational
IN another way is the second new
departure of the Philharmonic So
ciety this year. Increased attention
will be paid to the works of native
composers. Special study will be
given to the scores submitted by
Americans, and those found worthy
Of performance will be presented with
the care necessary to the fullest reve-
iation Of their beauties.
Thus the coming year in the his
tory of the Philharmonic Society
promises proof that the spirit of the
organization remains perpetually
young.

The Largest Congress District.

Representative ALBERT B. RossDALE
who stands for reelection as the Re-
publican candidate from the Twenty
third New York district, has the
largest constituency among the men,
bers of the House. BY the figures of
the last census the district has a
population of approximately 100000
In area it comprises the greater part
of The Bronx-geographically an in
significant fraction of the country.
Its population, which by now must
be considerably in excess Of what it
was when the census was taken. is
almost as large as the combined pop
lation of three States-Nevada, Wyo-
ming and Delaware. These three to-
gether have population of 494,S12.
The Twenty-third New York district
contains more people than Vermont,
Arizona or New Mexico, and it ap-
proximates the respective populations
of Idaho, New Hampshire and Utah.
Some of the States which contain
no more voters than the Twenty
third New York district are primarily
agricultural in their interests. The
men who represent them in Congress.
combined with others who represent
more thickly populated agricultural
States, WELD formidable influence.
Idaho and Utah, neither Of which
greatly exceeds The Bronx district
in population, have each two Sena-
tors and two Representatives.
With such a situation it is a mat
ter of particular urgency that the
New York districts should return able
and experienced men. The city dis
tricts change their Representatives
too often. That is in part the reason
why, out OF the twenty-three Repre-
sentatives from New York city, only
one is chairman of House commit
tee, for seniority has lot to do with
assignments to important committee
places.
