MISSIONARIES ARE

ACCUSED IN COREA SCwenty Americans Indirectly t Charged with a Political ; ; Conspiracy. (Natlorl News Association) SEOUL, July 19. Twenty American taissionaries stand accused in a remarkable conspiracy trial now pending dn Seous with complicity in a plot to Hcommit murder. These men have not been indicted jot any crime and are not defendants in this trial, but their names have been introduced into it by the pointed questions put to the Corean prisoners by the presiding judge, who bases his questioning upon alleged confessions made by the prisoners to the Japanese police examiners. The Americans thus accused are Bishop M. C. Harris, head of. the Northern Methodist Missions in Japan nd Corea; Rev. H. G. Underwook, of the Northern Presbyterian Mission, whose 27 years of service makes him the senior missionary in Corea; Rev. W. A. Noble, head of the Northern Methodist Mission; Rev. W. M. Baird, president of the Pingyang Christian College and a leading educator of CoTea; Rev. S. A. Moffett, of Pingyang, e recognized leader in the great Christian work. in Northern Corea; Rev. Graham Lee, Dr. J. H. Wells, Rev. W. L. Swallen, Rev. "W. N. Blair, Rev. C. F, Bernheisel, Rev. J. G. Holdcroft, Rev. B. M. Mowry, of the Northern Presbyterian Mission at Pingyang; Rev. N. C. Whittemore, Rev. Cyrill Ross, Dr. A. M. Sharrocks. Rev. S. L. Roberts, Rev. H. W. Lampe, Rev. G. S. McCune, of the Northern Presbyterian Mission at Syon Chung; Rev. C. C. Morris and Rev. A. L. Becker, of the Northern Methodist Mission at Pingyang. ' The list reads like a roll of honor of the Americans who are giving their lives to -the service of the Prince of Peace in Corea. And yet these men find themselves pilloried before the world as accessories with 125 Coreans, and arraigned upon the charge of a conspiracy to assassinate the Governor General, Count Terauchi. Bishop Harris is reported to have told the conspirators: - "Help will be given to you by the missionaries and the nations not outwardly, but In secret. You will have our moral support in all your plans." Mr. Underwood is charged with keeping the conspirators at the North informed of Count Terauchi's movements and as well is alleged to have urged the assassination of Count Terauchi. Mr. Moffett is alleged to have rebuked the accused men for failing to execute the plot, reviling them for their, -,cowardlce ,w , Messrs. Moffett, Wells, Baird, Lee, Hoss, McCune and others figure as custodians of the pistols for the conspirators. In varying degrees each man in this 'long list is similarly implicated in the questions of the Judge reading from the dossier containing the alleged confessions. - j Every Corean defendant has repudiated in open court his confession, and every defendant save one has testified fthat the alleged confession was wrung from him by physical torture, under the stress of which he simply assented to the questions propounded by the police examiners, and that when subsequently arraigned before the Procurator he did not deny the confessions through fear lest the denial would involve a return to the police inquisitors for further torture. A single defendant who did not suffer torture repudiated on the stand all bis allegations made previously against the Americans. There is no present prospect that these Americans are going to be given the opportunity to vindicate themselves, as the Judge has refused the application of the defense that the missionaries be summoned as witnesses. Amusements THEATRICAL CALENDAR At The Murray. Iewis-Oliver Stock company. Indefinite. , Perils of The Stage. Jack Carrington ruffled his black fcurlyhair, before the mirror in his dressing room at the Murray theater the other night, and in regard to the perils of the stage, had the following to say: s "The steeple jacks, and aeronauts ipractice a perilous calling, but in theatrical work, with a stock company, my work is just as risky. "How can an actor's work be likened iio an aeronaut's, or steeple jack's? "Because be scoffs at danger. "You play the line of parts with a , stock company that I do. Now you must remember that there are two new plays every week. In the usual run of.plays the heronie Is insulted by the bully. Its my duty to knock him down. As a rule I get a good stiff punch myself. In the next act the lovers elope in an auto, the auto jumps over the clifT. and kills the chauffeur. Yours truly is the man- steering the car. The third act is a reconciliation Bcene ending in an aeroplane flight, wherein the aeronaut becomesa tumbler at a height of 1,000 feet, falling and breaking very bone In his body Xast act, wedding and grand hanging scene. My neck Is all raw from the Ioie for weeks, but most people think 4t came from shaving too close.

CONSIDER THE ACTOR

For Unlike the Lily, He Toils, if He Doesn't Exactly Spin, and Works Harder, Sometimes, Than the Street Scraper.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. "Isn't he grand!" "Perfectly lovely!" "She's the sweetest thing!" "They're dead in love with each other" "I should say look at the way he kisses her!" "I wish I was on the stage." "Uh-huh. Not a thing to do but go on once a day." "Have your mornings and afternoons and parts of the evening." "Perfectly dandy!" Thus they prattle about the matinee idol or the leading lady. When it may be that the two detest each other for professional and personal reasons, and the leading lady may be married to a manufacturer of chewing-gum or pistols whom she adores. The matinee idol, on the other hand, has a wife and three children, and off the stage, is as dull as ditch-water. The truth is that there are no harder worked people than those of the theatrical profession. And, not unfrequently, none more commonplace. For one of the seeming anomalies of the stage is the ability of its expositors to assume something they do not possess, and of which seemingly, they have little comprehension. Actors, as a class, do not belong to the intellectuals. And the art of acting is a more or less mechanical process. It is governed by certain set conventions and rules of procedure that must be met and given consideration. These might be termed the technique of the stage but not of dramatic art. The latter is something finer and more subtle. And is strained through the alembic of individuality. A certain amount of mental acumen, however, is called for in every phase of the art of acting. Take, in instance, the stock company playing a summer engagement In this city and which gives two plays each week. If you think its a light matter to learn one part, say, a week, try it. But two, you will find, is a strain on the physical and mental makeup. Every morning is spent in rehearsing. Three afternoons and every evening in playing. And the times between frequently in study. A repertoire actress once told the writer that when she first started in with a two bills a week program she only slept from four until seven each day playing every night, going to her lodgings to study, - until four in the morning and getting up at seven in time for ablutions and toilet before rehearsal. When she "got onto the ropes," of course, it was not so hard, since she arranged her day into a less exhausting regime but the process of so doing was grueling. All illusions vanish after you have witnessed a "rehearsal. The rose-colored glamour in which the matinee idol and the leading lady are enveloped has floated into the rigging and their ardours are turned o n and off like water from a spigot. A dismantled stage, lighted "by stray , gleams of sunlight that enter surreptitiously from the alley or struggle over the line which divides the stage from the house, greets your vision, with dim figures sitting about the edges of tables, barrel-heads or other nondescript furnishings. Disconsolate figures, ghostly and pallid minus their makeup, yawning, limp, bored Two are standing up stage. One, somewhat disheveled, with his hat over one eye peering at a roll of dog-eared manuscript in his hand. The other, a trig, tailor-made lady. The man begins to read rapidly and monotonously in a sort of cross between a priest-like chant and a school boy in the fourth reader. "Now embrace her," yells the stage manager from the northwest corner where he had so far remained undiscovered. 0 The man's arm flaps limply across the leading lady's shoulders the while his eye vaguely wanders down the page. "Kiss her-t-kiss her hurry man we're only on the second act and its after eleven."

The matinee idol imprints a fond os-

culatory salute upon the atmosphere to the larboard of the leading lady's ear the while she near-sightedly tries to find her place. And Marguerite gasps. "Why its him," she whispers ungrammatically. "I didn't know! Why how different he looks. Why he's he's he looks lots older he's got crowfeet round his eyes he's oh " "Here we'll have to do that over," caterwauls the stage manager. "Put some ginger into that speech. Don't kiss her like a wooden Indian now " "Er er " babbles the matinee idor clutching for his cue "There it is middle of the page," whispers the little ingenue looking over the matinee idol's shoulder. "Oh er yes 'my darling I cannot will not believe ' "Look here," cries the stage manager pushing the matinee idol uncermoniously to one side and taking his place by the leading lady, "this's the way! Say 'my darling ! ! ! ! ! I cannotWill not' " Matinee idol resumes flabby embrace of leading lady "'My darling! ! !'" he mumbles. "Good Lord, man!" says the stage manager playfully. "Don't eat and chew your words so This way "My DARLING ! ! ! ! ! ! now " Again the m. i. salutes the atmosphere, embraces the leading lady's shoulder blades, begins 'my darling!' End of scene. Enters villian in sack coat and immaculate linen. Sneers at the leading lady. "Madame I'll have your heart's blood before the striking of the clock," he says in a pleasant conversational tone running his finger down the page. "Dog!" responds the leading lady suppressing a yawn. "Let me see is that my cue?" asks the character lady. "Don't ask something you ought to know," snapped the stage manager. "No mine " says a callow youth rushing past the character woman. "Father!" shrieks the leading lady making a feint of falling in the callow youth's arms. '"Father!" whispers Marguerite. "Why he looks like her little brother." "He's an old man In the play," you murmur. "He's awfully good lookin'!" whispers Marguerite. "I think he's got prettier eyes than the m. I." And so the rehearsal grinds monotously on. Scorn not "the least of these" for it takes something to do this. Some sort of good human stuff. And mental concentration. For no one works harder than the professional entertainer. The writer has seen an actress come Into her dressing-room at the end of an emotional scene, spent, trembling and exhausted. "We worked, so hard I never worked harder," she said it happened to have been in "The Thief" "and we

rmond the proof is positive. You must believe it. Read this testimony. Every backache sufferer, every man, woman or child with any kidney trouble will find profit in the reading. David Hershey, 316 S. Thirteenth St., Richmond, Ind., says: "I was troubled for some time by kidney complaint and the remedies I tried did not help me. Often I was hardly able to straighten on account of sharp, cutting pains across the small 'of my back and the least exertion or any cold I contracted caused the kidney secretions to pass too frequently. Doan's Kidney Pills, obtained at A. G. Luken and Co.'s Drug Store, cured me and at that time, I publicly recommended them. I now gladly confirm all I then said, as I still firmly believe that Doan's Kidney Pills are a splendid remedy for kidney disorders." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

When the great, black mouth in front of him sets its lips grimly and never smiles, his heart sinks. When it shows its teeth, or moves its lips or bursts into a hearty laugh or gives other signs of approval, or even of disdain, then he braces himself. He can tell from its degree and kind just what he himself is accomplishing. And with that for his background, he can paint in broadly or color faintly or manipulate his brush with fine nuances of feeling as the temperamental mouth may ask.

The Theaters

"Nature's Nobleman, which began ! a half week's engagement at the Murray last night, is a silly name for a good play. "Good play with reservations. Because just exactly what constitutes a good play is variable and governed by considerations of time, class. presentation, quality, authorship and caste. For a midsummer evening's entertainment by a ten cent stock company, however, "Nature's Nobleman" passes muster. Not only passes but gets way ahead of the dramatic game. Excepting such plays as "The Devil" and "Camille" this is the best in a general sense that the Lewis Players have yet presented, since its plot has more substance and the company puts it through at a livelier theatric pace. Earl Simmons as "Jim Melvin," who, by the bye bears a strong resemblance to "Jim, the Westerner," han an exacting role which called for almost continuous presence during the four acts and displayed his genuine histrionic talents to good effect. Simmons, who has a certain latent theatric power and charm which should stand him in good stead in bigger things where it might be developed into a broader dramatic grasp, was

greeted warmly by the audience. The play, of the familiar Wall street type, possesses a certain breeiy atmosphere, and concerns the doings of Jim Melvin. a rancher, who comes on to New York to spend some superfluous coin, after a long residence in the West, where he has served a severe novitiate paying off his father's debts, and his mining partner, who stole their united gold findings some years previous to the opening of the story, and who had become a successful speculator. The latter character was well taken by Mr. Wolcott who played it consistently. Some of the best comedy of the evening was that furnished by Edward Williams as the sporting deacon and by Flora Frost as his wife. Tom Coyle, who played the double role of a New York man of wealth and a cowboy Westerner, displayed his versatility, and Miss Mabel Frost made a charming daughter of the first named with whom "Jim Melvin" was in love. Miss Marion Milton as the daughter of the sporting deacon did the best bit of acting in which she has so far been seen, and Jack Carrlngton appeared in the role of the scapegrace son of the New York financier with his usual success.
