A number of railroad men were discussing the new rate bill at the St Nicholas hotel yesterday. One of the officials present said: "You must not give a pass to any one after Jan. 1, 1907, and we must even pay for our own servants after that date. The Ohio law says that no pass shall be given to Influence busl ness. I now wonder how railroad men are to get along unless they become entirely different from what they have been in the past. I would suggest the following rules for their conduct so that they may not be accused of in fluencing business for their roads: "Don't shake hands with anybody; your motives might be misconstrued. "Don't ask a friend or stranger to have a drink; you may be after trade. "Don't mention a pass; you may be talking to a spotter. "Don't be a good fellow; you may be reported. "Don't go after, freight; make the shipper come to you. "Follow these rules, which the new bill fosters, and you will soon be looking for another job. "Trly these are great times, if you say it hurriedly." Cincinnati Enquirer. EMINENT DIVINE DIES. Rev. J. W. McMullen. D. D., over SO years of age, died Thursday morning, Oct.

S.

or he declined, preferring to remain in

the ranks of the ministry. For 40 years his home was in Laf ayette, where he was held in reverence by all the people. Beautifying a City. The Ohio State Journal, discussing a :aper In a current magazine, on the vvays to beautify a city, adds, from Us jwn experience and observation in Colambus: People should not be allowed to erect houses and use the sidewalks for build ing steps to them They should not e permitted to hold vacant lots and turn them into eyesores They should lot be allowed to make additions to the city with thirty-five and forty-foot iots. They should be prohibited from throwing litter in the street. Parks -should all be kept up. A public comfort station should be supplied In fact, the beauty of a city is next in importance to Its health, for it enhances all the qualities of good citi zenship, and helps powerfully to mako ilfe worth living.

The first American appearance of Miss Lena Ashwell, the great English emotional actress brought to this coun try by the Schuberts, has proved to be a pronounced triumph. All the Chicago critics and play reviewers have paid her the highest tribute for her portrayal of the title role Of "The Shulamite" at the Garrick theater in that city. Theirs 13 the first American verdict upon this distinguished London artiste, and they are unanimous in their praise of her art. Mr. W. L. Hubbard in the Tribune declares: "Miss Ashwell is an actress whose coming to this country is fully justified. She has scored a distinct triumph. She sways her audiences to her will. She is complete mistress of her artiatlc powers, and she possesses temperamental gifts which enable her to move and touch her hearers." Mr. Burns Mantle in the Inter-Ocean exclaims: "Miss Ashwell is a thoroughly good actress in all that the term should mean, and one who is certain to win a following in the United States." Mr. James O'Donnell Bennett in the Record-Herald sounds an eloquent paean of praise in her honor, declaring: "Hers was an unmistakable and a beautiful triumph. It was an exhibition of acting that brought the first big thrill of the season the thrill of poetry and passion. She acts from the soul. She is the poet of the parted lips and the searching eyes, of the vibrant stroke, the wild swift cry, the death-like silences. Her method in moments of Supreme stress is swift, impetuous, decisive and for all her skill in the depiction of frantic anguish there seems ever a thought behind, and in all she does a clear big thought and it is in this she is most remarkable, for the capacity of the stage emotionalism is by no means Invariably coupled with the Intellectual faculty. In all the various passages of tragla poetry her grip was firm, her passion electrifying, her are true." peaklng of the play of "The Shulamite" itself, he credits it with being "well written and possessing climaxes of enormous acting value." All the Chicago critics dwelt especially upon the surpassing quality of her voice. The Inter-Ocean says: "She is an actress of fine contrasts, capa-ble of tigerish ferocity in her anger, of sympathetic appeal In her calmer moods, and there is a strange, almost harsh penetration to her voice when it rises in protest before injustices a harshness, however, that thrills as it penetrates, which is proof of the heart behind it" The RecordHerald remarks: "It is a voice capable of wild, sweet music of lyric rap ture, of the tenderest notes of musing and of thrilling impression made by Miss Ashwell upon her first critics in this American advent of hers. She re mains at the Garrick for only one week more, her stay being limited to October 27 next, as she goes directly to New York City for her run at the Lyric the ater there. TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY.
