T c. NUGENT is the author of
- "Gunpowder," the play which
Gene Buck, in association with Flo
Ziegfeld, will produce at the National
next week.
u. c. Nugent is unique charac-
ter of the American theater," said
Robert Grau, a stage historian of a
few years ago. "As an orator." he
continued, "he was compared to Ros-
coe Conkling" Even so fine a talker
as De Wolfe Hopper is quoted as
saying, "Of all the speakers / know.
j. c. Nugent on one occasion made
the finest speech | have ever heard"
Later Grau in his stage memoirs,
speaking of Nugent's famous articles
on stage organization, says his
trenchant pen held Broadway spell
bound"
Which partly explains a writing of
the widely read Jack Lait in
Variety, to wit:
81. G. Nugent holds a number of
titles. He is Americas most accom-
plished monologuist, line of en-
deavor which never held more than
half dozen first-raters in as many
years. He also wrote and played
many of the best short plays ever
seen in American vaudeville and he
has a knowledge of the technique of
dramatic writing and acting second
to none in America"
That was some years ago. Before
that j. G. Nugent had had a notable
career in the legitimate, both as actor
and writer. His play, AN Indiana
Romancet" with Robert Downing. was
produced at the Lafayette Square
Theater. this city. in 1899, and even
before that he made a personal hit

me department re -ruiting commit,
tee. consisting of two members from
each camp, with p. e. Shomette as
chairman, met Monday evening at the
hall of Astor Camp and planned an
intensive campaign for recruits dur
ing the coming year of Department
Commander Belknap's administration.
1t Is intended to bring to the atten-
ton of all eligible veterans the
advantages and necessity of being
affiliated with the organization.
The Pension Bureau will be repre-
sented> at the coming convention at

tailed the following. who are employed
in the bureau, to have charge OF the
bureau information office which will
be established there: William O'Brien,
Charles Galpin, a survivor of the
Maine, and John Coyne.
At a recent meeting of the Snaix

sent Washington Lair at the convoca-
ton to be held at St. Petersburg dur
ing the encampment: Past Grand
Gu Gu John Gallagher. Past Grand
Gu Gu Charles McCaffrey and Com
nison, George Cook and William
O'Brien.
The last meeting of Richard j.
Harden Camp was noted by the large
number of visitors present. Com
mander-in-C Chief c. w. Herrick made
an address and thanked the camp for
its support during his administration,
and called attention to the fact that
his first official visit to any camp
was TO Richard J. Harden, and on
this occasion would be his last to any
camp before the expiration of his
term of office. IS he would leave for
the South in a few days to establish

ton city. Adjt. Gen. j. j. Murphy

cial trains and accommodations leav-

the number of reservations for cars

Legislation providing for the abol-
lshment OF flying pay will not origi-
nate in the War Department, it was
stated at the department this week.
An informal discussion of this subject
has been made in the department
from number of points Of view,
declared Assistant Secretary of War
Davis this week, but at the present
time the abolishment of flying pay
is not being considered by the de-
partment. The suggestion has been
made that part of the flying pay of
officers and also the entire flying pay
of officers be converted into insur-
ance for the flyers dependents, but
no recommendations in this respect
are before the department, and the
Assistant Secretary indicated that
none would be made to Congress by
the War Department.
The recommendation of Maj. Gen.
Mason NJ. Patrick, chief of Air SerV-
ice, providing for the creation of a
separate corps for the air service,
is meeting with so much opposition
in the War Department. that it is
believed that Gen. Patrick's recon-
mendation Will not receive the War
Department Endorsement. The crea-
tion of an aviation corps, it is con-
tended. would not be harmonious to
the Army's new policy, which eX-
tends aviation instruction to the line
on a broader plan than has been in
operation heretofore. 1t Is also con
tended that flyers are more efficient
in the lower grades and that a sys.
tenn should be evolved by which. after
aviators attain the higher grades,
they could be transferred back to the
line and staff branches.
The subject of flying pay for the
Navy will come up in Congress at
the next session. This is one of the
reasons why the Assistant Secretary
of War is inclined to have the pro
posed investigation conducted before
Congress convenes, so that the ques-
tion relative to the personnel of the
Air Service can be taken up and
solved.

already made himself felt before
his recent achievement of putting

on Broadway but also his now famous
son and daughter.

The daughter, Ruth. not yet 20, has
just scored another notable hit as
the lead in the Family Upstairs" at
the Gaiety.
Nugent was born in Niles, Ohio
almost so years ago. His father was
a highly regarded labor leader, a
highly educated, brilliant Irishman.
His mothers brothers were priests
or theological students and young
Nugent's childhood evenings were
spent In listening to weighty discus

Then the family migrated to Texas
and to cotton raising to escape the
wage slavery" of the mills and for
three years his academy was the cot

of listening to the loud readings of
