UPHEAVAL IN CABARETDOM. /New York lost what would probab- ly have been the most sensational court case in many years when BEu- genia Kelly, heiress, lover of the cab- aret life; and satellite of Al Davis, a professional dancer agreed to go home to her mother and to give up the life to which she hed become addicted. Bonnie Glass, another dancer, also a satellite of Al Davis whose dancing partner she is had become jealous of Miss Kelly and had gone ~ to her mother telling of the daughter’s acts. In an effort to make her: daughter leave her married admirer the mother brought court action and for a while a big sensation was promised. Bonnie Glass threatened to call into the case many of the leading lights of the Broadway dance halls in an attempt to prove her contention of wrong- doing, and it was promised that a .story of seduction and erime such as the world has never seen would be uncovered. Luckily for some, un- luckily for the general welfare, the matter has been settled and the dis- closures will not yet be made. Undoubtedly the high class cabarets are hunting grounds for human birds of prey and they work under condi- tions that are perfect for their trade. The professional dancer meets every- one in the hall if he so desires. Many young girls are only flattered by the opportunity to -danee with him and thus under the spell of musi¢ and, dance firdt acquaintances are made. The man is surrounded with a glamor that is not present at other times and his appeal to the object of his at- tentions is multiplied many times. ‘With a favorable first impression/upon the world old art has gained an im- mense amount and the rest must' be fairly easy even with a girl with the best of homes. ., Movies and general high life in Sing Sing appeal to James J.

Ministry #nd the Censorship. % (Boston Transcript) All the troubles which now con- front the British government ca be ‘traced 'directly or indirectly to ita cen- sorship ‘of news.. The censorship pushed to such tremes that editors and reporters of obscure provincial papers have sud- denly leaped into fame through being haled into court and' fined. A repor- ter is offered a private letter from the front whose" writer is locally weH known, He copies it or makes ex- tracts from it and turns it in for pub- lication. The editor passes it and the next day he and the reporter are fined and incidentally are stigmatized as semitraitors. The British press patiently endured this treatment for months, but its pa- tience is becomiing exhausted, and it either leading or pushing the ent for 4 coalition miistry. The ‘ newspapers wants the news and the public wants them to have it. The British press is sensible enough and responsible enough not to publish war secrets. It would heed any reason- able request the government might ke for reticence, but when editors ireporters are fined for printing _are not secrets but simply mat- ters ‘of local interest to their readers, ‘such as the whereabouts and condi- -tion of “the company,” it realizes that the censarship has attained inquisi- torial powers smacking mo{s ‘of Rus- ‘| #ia than (San Francisco Chronlde5 Some of the !dfiil‘l -are icultivat- ing little gardens In One’s emotions get at the thought of flowers growing in such places, and yet we are assured by the worthy Omar that 1 sometimes think thnt never blows so red o The Rose: u wherc ; some Caet Thnx e Bylcmth vears.

(New York Tribune.) Rarely in human history have the events of one country more accurately | reproduced those of a preceding than dn recent weeks. In 1813 Napoleon’ was fighting his last campalgn in, Germany. He had against him an | alliance that included Engrand, Russia | Prussia, Sweden and Spain. Despite the odds he had opened his campaign with his characteristic skill and &c- customed success. Lutzen, Bautzen and Dresden had been tought and won. But the issue of the war was still.in doubt. At this moment Austria served upon the great Emperor 2 demand the main | cetail in which was that she should i have the Illyrian Provinces.

Wellington had not yet reached the Pyrenees, in the north French troops were along the Eilbe, and Danzig and. Hamburg ! were in French hands. It requires no argument to demon- strte . how cun;plle,tely the situation today reproduces that of 1813 Italy now comes in as Austria did then, at the moment when a great coalition is making head against one great na- tion, for Austria has become little more than a German province. Ru- | mania, Bulgaria, Greece are bound to follow Ttaly ultimatety, as the smaller German states follow Austria. For then the profit is all in one direc- tion, and the entrance of Italy is a final evidence that in the world out- side her own frontiers Germany can- | not ‘win. But there is something more than chance resemblance between the pre-; sent and the Napoleonic era. The | German idea, which has plunged the whole world into war, is but an adap- tation of the Napoleonic idea of world empire, It was not an accident that a century ago practically all of the nations of Hurope united to drive ‘Napoleon first out of Germany and Spain and then out of France. The one great fact in the world situation of 1915 is the one central fact of the situation of 1813, - The battle that is beilng fougnt today in ‘Europe is just as clearly a battle for liberation as that in 1813 in which Prussia played so honorabdle a part.

At this momentous hour eleven na- tions are embroiled in war, Germany, Austria, Turkey, Russia, England, France, Portugal, Serbia, Montenegro, Japan and Belgium, and Italy practi- cally the twelfth.

Once more draws neir thé day, when a ‘united natiom pays tribute to that -great, 1 army 10f dead de- fenders and it4 survivors, ‘Whose eour- | age and devotion saved 1t mn its ‘hour | of stresf and storm. The thin blue line has suffered ly from' the shrapnel of time since that day a year ag0, when it railled ofice dnore $b the colors and listened once again to the mounting list of its loved dead. Brothers in arms dear to the veterans of many battles and to all of us, have fallen from the ranks in answer to the call of the Great Commander but the line still holds and tne flag still waves unstained, i age, the German idea, They have looked upon.the world as Alexander the Great did, they have sought to adopt and adapt the ideas of Napo- leon; for them *Corsica has congquered | Galilee.” In German propagandist literature the nations of the earth have been pentenced to death, decaaent France was to vanish, the corrupt British) Empire was to fall apart, Russia was to feel the weight of German might rolling her back from the Vistula. Turkey was to become a German annex, -Austria to join in the Teutonic world, which’ was to pass the Dar- danelles and the Bosporus, follow the Pagdad Rallroad across Asia Minor to the Euphrates and approach Indla ty the road of Alexander. TItaly was to obey Germgn direction and accept French provinces in return, South and Central Afrieca were to become German lands, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Scandinavia, ‘““Germanic hy| rnce,” were to disappear in the greater | Germany. | History will see far more clearly ihan we do now the extent, the grand- eur and the vitality of the German ideas. But it will see with equal clarity why Europe rose to combat it. It will perceive that the end of 211 natipns, the subjection of all races 10 one; a return to the -old Roman idea was inevitable if.

Whateéver be the immediate ends of the Italian peo- rle, however selfish the Incidental occasion of the declaration of war, It will remain a landmark in history because it will promise, as did the entrance . of Austria into the Napo- leonic strife a century ago, the begin ning of the end of a great dream founded upon the injustice, upon the repeal of all that civilization and re- ‘ ligion have won for the world in cen- turies. And in such a struggle Italy be- longs with the liberal powers. = All her splendid history in tne last cen- tury, her patroits who died on Hapsburg scaffolds, all that Mazzini and Gari- baldi mean to mankind would be Te- pudiated by Italy if she did not today stand with those nations who are re- suming the battle for liberty fought a century ago against Napoteon and row being fought against the Kaiser. And TItaly should carry with her American wishes for success. Our women and children have Deen sac- rificed to Gefman necessity, our dead have been scattered over the seas and now float with the tides because, hap- iess and helpless, American women ard children stood between Germany snd her purpose.

Baths For the Sparrow.’ (New Haven Register.) It was an ultra-kind person who ‘wrote recently to Mayor Mitchell ask- ing if he wouldn't please see that bathing facilities for the sparrows were: restored in conmection with the fountain at Bowling Green park. “In a big city like this,” he wrote, “where the birds render so much service in preventing bugs and measuring worms from walking over us, it sure- ly is the duty of the city authorities to provide bathing places for them.” By all means provide bathing pla especially for the English sparrow: If there is a bird on this soiled and soling earth that naturally (it seems) needs a bath, it is an English spar- row. If he will bathe, provide him water, and if he will use-soap, add that. And if it doesn't come handy to provide public bathing places in the open, invite him into the bath- room., He won't mind if you can stand it. But let him have the bath, | at ‘all events. He needs it. If you doubt it, observe him as closely as you can. However, there is somethng to he said in ‘extenuation of his looks. Sometimes we may wonder why is an English sparrow . But if we reflect we '‘may observe that no other bird has the nerve, not to say the nerves, to ply his trade of scavenger - and worm -extractor and moth preventer in the swift and perilous midst . of such a city as New York.

R, E. BEARDSLEY. The Blasphemy of Billy Sunday. (New London Day.) 1 Blily Sunday has weund wup his Paterson campaign and he wound it up with a perfectly typical word of advice to the Lord not to believe all that He may have heard about Pater- son. It is ppobably just this enormous egotism—this pose of leading en"the Almghty and encouraging and urging Him not to be discouraged; this mighty blasphemy—that lfes at the bottom of Sunday’s success if suc- cess it can be called. He gives thrills to a’ class of people who enjoy thrills for their own sake. He thrills them by daring to adopt an attitude toward sacred things which puts a fimite creature—hmself—in advance of the hosts of heaven and cheers and waves and abjures them on.to. batile, It is more than intimacy with the Lord that, Sunday assumes. He pa- tronizes his Creator. He coaches Hiin from the third base line. He roots and boosts for-a three base hit from God in his-contest with the devil. And he'tickles an appetite for the unusual on the part of thousands of unthink- ing. persens who do mnot sense the enormity: of the man's pretensions. But'he sickens the souljof every man or woman who is able to' comprehend a God that does not wear a hat or birds, wigh the possble exception of the stdrling, would “make for the opep. The sparrow sticks to the job, and the’ greatér the excitement, the better hé likes {ft. He fits into the strife and' ‘noise ‘and confusion of the city. * His. “song’” is perfectly in ‘tune with . its discord. He belongs there. His life and his work are there. But:.don’t forget the bath. - e, P cs ana Police. (Wl&gbury American.) lhyor Quigley of New Britain finds that “politieal pull and partisan poli- | ties” ido - ngt pnake for efficiency in police .and . fire departments. He favors a committee which shall. draft civil service rules governing the ap- pointment ‘of meén to these depart- ments, - He thinks ‘the New Britain, police and fire departments are in need of a thorough shaking up dnd says in his annual message to the common council: The bane of the police and flre de- partments has been political inter- ference. Men have been avpointed to positions in thése departments who would not have been appointed -had they not had political ‘pul! Political pull and partisan politics must be driven from the volice and fire departments if you are going to have efficient departments. And theére is more along the same line. Anyone who has in mind a pos- sible change in these two departments in Waterbury such as might be made under the Devine home rule act could read the entire message with profit. The New Britain mayor doesn’t say jingle .car fare in His pocket.
