Charlotte Cushman.

IF one were to choose the two most
L distinguished representatives of
the stage in America-one a man and
the other a woman-they would prob
ably be Edwin Booth and Charlotte
Cushman. AS matter of fact, Miss
Cushman was chosen for the Hall of
Fame of New York University in 1915
by the college of electors, comprising
100 well known persons from every
section of the Union. The name of
Booth has received very strong sup
port in the last three quinquennial
elections, and 1t is hoped that full
recognition will be accorded himsin
the election which is to take place
during the Summer of 1925.
Although a tablet has been placed
to Miss Cushman by New York Uni
versity in the colOnnade at University
Heights, the honor of her. selection
will not be complete until the tablet
has been surmounted by a bronze
bust, and at the invitation Of DR..
Robert Underwood Johnson, director
of the Hall of Fame, an informal
committee is presenting the matter TO
the profession and the public. This
committee includes Elsie Ferguson,
chairman; Julia Arthur, Blanche
Bates, Katharine Cornell. Jane Cowl,
Minnie Maddern Fiske and Eleanor
Gates, secretary.
Charlotte Cushman 1S16-76) was
famous in many characters, including
Lady Macbeth, Romeo, Meg Merrilies,
Queen Katherine ard Cardinal VOL
sey, playing the last two characters
on alternate nights. She had a voice
Of marvellous power and depth and an
intelligence of Interpretation which
made her a favorite in readings from
Shakespeare after she had left the
stage. Her career did the highest
honor to the profession, and is dis
tinguished part of the prestige and
dignity of the American stage.
Contributions should be sent to Miss
Eleanor Gates, secretary of the COM
mittee, 730 Fifth avenue, New York,
preferably in check to the order of
the Bursar of New York University,

than a million persons from pay
ment Of any federal tax.

annual burden would be cut by
$193,575. 900, beginning with taxes

SOLDIER TO HAVE

Screens by Maj. GIassford
Will Be Displayed at
Studio Two Weeks.

A professional soldier by vocation

ham Davis Glassford, an instructor at
the Army War College, with dis

the construction and painting of
screens of unusual character. The
six screens he will place on exhibit
tion tomorrow are of the type to
which he has devoted the last several
months.
Long Army Service.

served &c years in the Army, intends
to retire from the military service in
1880 and devote his time to art Maj.

Hawaii; John Sloan, Birger Sandzen
and Randall Davies. For five years

professor Of the department of draw
ing at the United States Military
Academy at West Point, from which
he was graduated in 1904.
Maj. Glassford was appointed briga-
dier general in October, 1918, and as
signed to command of the artillery
brigade of the 26th or Yankee Divi-
sion. He was the second youngest

ton OF the San Mihiel salient and In
the Meuse-Argonne offensive. He
was wounded in September. 1918, and
received the silver star citation for
gallantry in action.
Two of the screens to be placed on
exhibition tomorrow are OF Oriental
derivation, while another is a pea
cock screen in gold, black and dark
green. adapted from a window panel
by James Mcneil Whistler in the pea
cock room of the Freer Gallery.
