Fire, breaking out early today in

under control. Four alarms were
sounded before sufficient apparatus to
handle the blaze was brought to the
scene. The building itself was
damaged about $4,000, according to
preliminary estimates. Insurance

Spontaneous combustion is believed
to have caused the blaze. Ii started

RUSSIAN ACTOR LIVES PARTS
 IN PLAYS

PARIS, Jan. 16.-"Russian art and literature are at the cross roads No- body knows which direction they are going to take" This is the opinion of Olga Chekhova, widow of Anton Chekhova, the Russian playwright. "Naturally the revolution has re- leased many art and literature ten- dencies, the existence of which were scarcely suspected a few years ago.
 It was behind the scenes ot the Champs F,Iysees Theater that I met Madame Chekhova, during the per formance of Gorki's play, "The Depths" I asked this actress, as famous in Russia as her husband IS known to the rest of the world, what is the secret of the Russian theaters talented cast. Although they under stood not a word of the language, dozens of American tourists in the audience, between the acts, were pro- claiming this performance of Rus sian play the most realistically acted piece they had ever seen.
 Don't Play Outward
 Most actors play outward" Ma dame Chekhova explained. Most actors play to greater or lesser ex- tent to the audience. We play to each other. The audience doesn't exist for us. There is no difference or distinc- tion between a rehearsal and public performance. We study our roles, the characters, and study them for months before we start on the play We study the psychology of the char acter we are to play until we can live the part. until we know that charac- ter so we'll that we know what the person would do in any situation that might arise-until we could live that character off the stage as we'll as on it.",
 I looked at Madame Chekhova's tat tered red skirt, which she wears in "The Depths" Isn't it dangerous to live a part to that extent?" I asked.

NEW YORK, Jan. 16.-From the moment you are born until the mo- ment you die you can't go wrong in New York. No matter what you do or want to do, there is a society that will save you from doing it.
 There are societies devoted to the saving of everything from babies, animals and souls to "indigent fe- males," "friendless men" and Ere spectacle girls" There is even one for the protection of non-smokers.
 These societies, associations and organization, numbering about 1000, with their branches, save anything from souls to the Adirondack Noun tains. The innermost and most inner affairs connected with your life are subjects for being saved.
 The incidental things in your life are also saved For instance, if you lose your civil liberties there 10 ootlCtS lo ooFC bhCll lcl you, should you need to be defended there is society to defend you, and, perchance, should you need to be imprisoned society itself will oblige you.
 There are societies to see to it that you are born properly, to pro tect you from getting bad milk when you are baby, from being spanked when you grow older, from straying off the straight and narrow path when you mature, and from commit ting suicide when you should.
 If you get sick, or drunk, or lost or "pinched" there is a society that will save you. If you are Irish, Jewish, Armenian or Czecho-Slovak- ian, and need relief, some one will relieve you.
 There is society to give you clothes when you lack them ana another to take them away when you Call Spdlc thSHi'
 There is a society for free milk for Italy and temperance for Scan dinavian sailors.
 There is a society to save you from reading books that you should not read and from going to places where you oughtn't to go, to save you from vice, poverty, sickness ana the grave.
 But if you should finally escape all these societies and die, there IS one that win see to it that you are given a proper burial. And then, if that isn't enough, there is another that will investigate the actlV'leS of your soul in the life beyond. In short, you can't go wrong hefe' Va gotta be saved!

~S0CIETIES' WILL SAVE YOU
 F YOU LIVE IN NEW YORK

How many times have you played in this role you have tonight?'
 Perhaps four hundred" she re- piled.
 Living a part so thoroughly and so often, aren't you afraid you'll be af- fected by it, become sort of tattered and torn mentally and spiritually" asked.
 Madame Chakhova's pleasant eyes twinkled. "It's art, you must remem- ber," she replied. 'I don't believe it would affect an artist But, you see, a theater conducted on our plan cannot produce every play. The factory out put as I like to describe the plays ,,r~ned out in a hurry for some par ticular actress Or stage, would almost never be suitable for the intensive work we put into production.
 Stress Realism
 "We must have works which reflect real, vivid, throbbing life. Most plays written for star can not be said to fill this demand The facts and truths of life are subordinated to the needs of the star or of the theater. That is why authors who create works which will live never think of particular actors while they are writing"
 But the world believes that your husband wrote The Cherry Orchard for you" I objected
 He didn't even know what role would play when he wrote The Cherry Orchard" Chekhova replied.
 It's a thoroughly intrenched tra- dition,'' said
 Madame Chekhova blushed a triffe behind her rosy makeup. She shrugged her shoulders. Evidently she doesn't dislike the tradition, even if it does conflict with her theories of the best method of writing plays which are literature.
 "Perhaps," she smiled
 Have you noticed that we carry with us actual art treasures, antiques which thrill the Paris connoisseurs" Madame Chekhova continued. Every property used on the stage must have significance to the actor. They must become treasured possessions old friends, so that the actor will fee toward them as he would to his pos sessions off the stage" Madame Chek hova's call for the third act came

and she left her dressing room.
 "Yes, she's right; but this realism in properties can go too far" grum- bled one of the stage managers, as he directed me back to the front of the theater
 Let me show you something. I'll show you realism for a travelling com pany. It's what you Americans will call takes the--takes the-I used to live in New York you know-takes the biscuit There's realism. We've lugged those all the way from Moscow and must cart them back again"
 He pointed to ten full-sized church bells mounted in a portable belfry.
