VISIT SAIN! MARY'S

Beautiful Outdoor Pageant At Girls' J', College to Celebrate Famous

Author's Tercentenary.

By Mique O'Brien.

In listing the entertainments given throughout the country in celebration of the Shakespeare tercentenary, dra•ma leaguers and others interested in the presentation of the classic drama, -one must not overlook that given under the auspices of St. Mary's-of-the-Woods college and academy on

Wednesday afternoon and evening. The affair was modestly called a Shakespeare tercentenary pageant, but there were some admirably acted

1

scenes from Shakespeare's plays in the open air, upon the academy porticos and in the auditorium of the academy of music.

The program began at 2 o'clock in the afternoon and continued, with slight intermission for refreshments at Anne Hatheway's college (Guerin ball), and an Elizabethan dinner for the performers until nearly nine o'clock.

Terre Haute Girls Appear. Pupils from every part of the United States and many from Canada were 5 represented in the program. Four

Terre Haute girls distinguished themselves, Adelaide Prox as Aufldius in "Coriolanus," Helen Milks as Juliet in "Romeo and Juliet" and Barbara **\._Smith, Puok and Catherine Mary. Rich-

ards in "Midsummer Night's Dream." The pageant procession with which I the festivities began brought out all of i -the stars of the day and evening with their attendants. The girls who assumed male characters walked with mannish stride and tried hard to re-

pi

train from blushing under their beards. In the bright sunlight the flashy costumes of Queen Elizabeth's heralds $' And ladies in waiting of Lord Lei cester, Sir Walter Raleigh and other scharacters of history, to say nothing of f':' the royalty and nobility represented in I Shakespeare's plays, looked nothing short of gorgeous. It was a sight far more Inspiring than a mere motion

picture possibly could be with an ideal setting. Fantasy Run Riot.

The fairy revels from "Midsummer Night's Dream", were staged in the ter i*aced ravine with the audience looking y^ cn from the other side of the valley.

The wedding scene from "The Taming of the Shrew" eftacted in front of the academy with the audience assembled in the portico yras one of the delights of the afternoon, due largely to the spirited performance of Miss Blanche Szwajkart in the role of Katherine.

A' scene from "Twelfth Night, enacted on the portico of the conservatory of music, uncovered another promising actress in Miss Frances Bearss, the Viola.

In the tent scene from "Coriolanus," presented on the east campus of the acamedy. Miss Alice Keating played ""•••'••toe- part and Miss Adelaide Prox '*as conspicuous in the cast, rendering ,the lines of Aufldius w*th intelligence fT and force.

Miss Helen Milks showed unmistake^•^•aljle dramatic talent in role of Juliet. S Three scenes from "Romeo and Juliet"

were given in the auditorium of the V conservatory of music. In the cast of "Midsummer Night's Dream" were I Louise Holmes, Anita Heuer, Evelyn

Dulin, Barbara Smith, Ruth Conners, 4 ConstlLnce Reed, Mary Elizabeth Andres and Vivian Holmes: attendant L,Y ffdrleS: Louise Andres, Helen Mullaley, 1 Elisabeth Hamilton, Romana Bowen,

When* she gave it a couple of dosos of Foley's Honey and Tar'she was so pleased with the change she did not know what to say."

Commission IHxcs Responsibility Jointly on Engineer Hess In Cleveland Crash Which Killed 27.

WASHINGTON, May 11.—The wreck on the New York Central lines, near Cleveland, O., March 29, in which twenty-seven persons were killed and forty-seven injured, was due, the interstate commerce commission reported today, to the failure of Engineer Hess to see the signals or to read them properly on account of the' dense fog in which his train was running.

The report to the commission cites the engineer's record sined 1900 to show that he had been four times suspended for running past signals and was again suspended last December

Urges Automatic Stops.

The report says the rules were not observed and the high rate of speed at which Hess' train was running, "in view of the fog and at short distance which signal indications coijjd be distinguished was one of the proximate causes of this accident. "Not only did second train No. 86 make up time in the fog but all three of the fast trains involved in this accident made up time in the night and the testimony of practically all of the employes clearly indicates that foggy weather makes no difference in respect to the rate of speed at which trains are run. "It is clearly shown also that the operating officers charged with the responsibility of knowing that safety rules and requirements are observed were perfectly familiar with the fact that trains not only run at normal speed but make up time in dense fogs. "The evidence Justifies the conclusion that those, in charge must have known that trains were continually being operated at the same speed in fog as in clear weather. Accidents such as this may be expected to occur unless those in charge of the operation of this property at once takes steps to see to it, by such check, observations and other means as may be found necessary, that speed is materially reduced in foggy weather."

The committee, in its report, again refers to the need of automatic train stops.

"The record of this aocldent," the report states, "together with a cardrul consideration oi a record of accidents wherein employes have failed to obey fixed signal indications since July 19, 1911, brings forcibly to mind the fact that the rulefe relative to speed permitted during foggy weather are, in many instanoes, indefinite and vague."

WHEN IN DOUBT. Trr The Tribune.

Official Facts About Prohibition Maine

An upstate editor, wrought up by an itinerant preacher, gives fervent expression to a desire that Indiana take "its place alongside Kansas and Maine." Charity would ascribe this ill-advised editorial expression to ignorance. Surely no true Indianian familiar with conditions in these prohibition states could be so disloyal as to wish such a fate upon his own Hoosier commonwealth.

A recent compilation of official facts from the state of Maine will be of interest to those zealots who are so eager to exchange conditions here for those in the oldest prohibition state in the Union. Sixty "dry" years have proven rich.in prohibition experience,—experience which the professional "dry" agitator carefully refrains from discussing.

Portland, the largest city in Maine, had an estimated population of 62,162 in 1914. Statistics published in the annual police reports of that city for the five years ending January 1,1915, show a total of 27,250 arrests, of which 7,091 were for drunkenness and 11,973 for drunkenness and disturbance. This makes a total of 19,064 arrests for intoxication, or about seventy per cent of the total.

One of the most appalling facts in connection with conditions in "dry" Portland is the great number of women and minors charged with drunkenness. Statistics of the police matron for the year lf£ I are not available, but for the remaining four years of the period, the records show 779

Portland women charged with intoxication. Two thousand four hundred and fifteen boy6, between the ages of ten and twenty, were arrested during this same five year period.

The city of Lewiston, Maine, with a population of 26,247, had 9,169 arrests for intoxication in the period between March, 1909 and March, 1915. Arrests for drunkenness comprised eighty-two per cent of the total.

Bangor, Maine, according to its police reports, arrested 13,779 for intoxication from March 1, 1909 to March 1, 1915. Over eighty per cent of the total arrests were those for drunkenness.

The city of Augusta (population 13,211) shows 196 arrests for drunkenness out of a total of 343 arrests during the year ending March 31, 1915.

Auburn, Maine, has a population of 15,064. Dqring the period from March, 1909 to March, 1915 there were 1,423 arrests for intoxication, or sixty per cent of the total.

Rockland (population 8,174) arrested 321 persons for intoxication from March 14,1914 to February 8,1915

The above facts are typical of conditions in the prohibition state of Maine. Compare them with conditions here at home. Do you wish to place Indiana alongside Maine and other so-called "dry" states?
