This at least is the con- sensus of opinion among the men who last night saw Everywoman at the Lyceum. A good cast, with Edna Porter in the title role, was greeted by a capacity house. Despite long delays between the acts the show oved to be one of the best morsels the present dramatic season. Miss rter was ideal as Everywoman and r three companions, Youth, Beauty, and Modesty, portrayed respectfully | by Hazel O’Brien, Helen Molineau and Frances Simpson, were wonderfully cast. George Sydenham more than did justice to the mythical Nobody. Frank Gilday as Bluff and F. J. Mc- Carthy as Stuff the stage managers played their parts admirably. “NEverywoman is a modern morality play fashioned after those of the six- teenth century. It depicts Every- woman's pilgrimage in quest of love. Everywoman is in her home, sur- rounded by her three charming com- time on a stage of a great theater. She has as her companion Wealth, and Witless, a nobleman. Youth and Beauty are in the chorus and Everywoman is the star. And Modesty has been thrown aside.

T0 IMMORTALIZE NAME OF ERWIN Mayor Names Committee of Fil- teen to Choose Memorial Acting on a vote of the city coun- cil, Mayor Quigley has appointed a committee of fifteen to recommend a suitable memorial to the late Corge- lius B. Erwin, New Britain’s greatest philanthropist. The committee is composed of the original council com- mittee which was appointed on peti- tion of the Russell & Erwin’s Fore- man’s club to change the name of Walnut Hill park to Erwin park as a fitting testimonial to the memory of the man who really did something for the city, but never sought to per- petuate his own name, and ten citi- zen members. The new committee is as follows: Councilman E. L. Teich, Councilman Charles Mueller, Councilman David S. Ohman, Councilman Walter Pohl- man, and Councilman G. M. Landers; Hon. A. J. Sloper, Representative E. W. Christ, George K. Macauley, Tho- mas W. O'Connor, Corporation Coun- sel James E. Cooper, Willlam Bur- karth, representing Russ¢ll & Erwin’s Foreman's club and Judge B. F. Gaff- ney. When the council committee was appointed following the Foreman's club petition, it was found on inves- tigation that the name of Walnut Hill park could not be changed without a lot of legal red tape which would take the matter into the state legisla- ture. In addition it was discovered that general opposition existed against the change of name. Walnut Hill park has stood for fifty years and people thought more of the name than anyone suspected. It was then pro- posed to change the name of the New Britain Institute, but that was found to be a knotty problem, too. The new committee appears to start with a good working basis, that of a choice of memorial which has never bore another title and something that will prove a memorial in a true sense. It has been proposed to name one of the city parks in honor of Mr. Erwin | and it is not unlikely that the com- mittee will follow this suggestion.

According to a list which, given out late vesterday afternoon by the Havas News agency, is considered authorita tive, the ministry will be composed as follows: Members of Cabinet. Premier and minister of foreign af- fairs—Aristide Briand. Vice president of the cabinet minister of state—Charles De cinet. Minister of war- lieni. Minister of justice—Rene Viviani. Minister of the interior—Louis J. Malvy. Minister of marine—Rear Admiral Lacaze. Minister of finance-—Alexandre Ri- bot. Minister of public instruction inventions concerning national fece- Professor Paul Painleve. Minister of public works—Marcel Sembat. Minister Clementel Minister of colonies—Gaston mergue Minister of agriculture—Jules line. Minister of Iabor- Ministers without Combes, Leon Bourgeois, Denys chin and Jules Guesde, General secretary of ministry foreign affairs—Jules Cambon. Under secretary of state, war and munitions—Albert Thoma Under secretary of state for sistence—Joseph Thierry. Under secretary of state for tary service—Justin Godart. Under secretary of state for aviation —Rene Besnard. Under secretary of state for marine —Louis Neil. This is tie first time in the history of the KFrench republic that a coali- tion ministry of all the opposing par- ties and factions has been formed. It follow closely on the recent innova- tion of forming a British coalition cabinet of conservatives and liberals. All Parties Unified. The action taken yesterday in form- ing the cabinet was the outcome of the deep popular sentiment that party division at the supreme crisis of the war should give way to united. action by all the parties in common support of the government. The cabinet of Rene Viviani was representative of only a few political groups, and the ministers, therefore, presented their collective resignations. President Poin- care immediately charged Aristide Briand with the formation of a new organization combining all elements. ! The resulting coalition is remark- able in personnel, including such ven- erable figures as Charles de Freycin- | et, who was one of Gambetta’s aids in { the upheavel of 1870; Jules Meline, a | former premier, who instituted the | protective system of France and Leon Bourgeois, who is known as the | “Grand Old Man of the Radical Par- | tv,” which has the largest membership in parliament. The modern element is represented by conspicuous leaders of all the po- litical groups of the country. Thus the new coalition brings together France's and Frey- General J. S. Gal- and de- of commerce—Etienne Dou- Me- -Albert Metin. portfolio—Emil Co- of sub- sani- | ilderiand younseroisiasmeniond in | pesonnel represents all the history of | modern France since the fall of Napo- | leon III. The new body also is not-! able in having the popular military leader, General Gallieni, as the head of the war office and Rear Admiral Lacaze as head of the ministry of marine, both of them replacing civil- ians. . Political Creeds Diverse. The extent of the coalition is shown by the following representations from the various parties: The Radical party is represented by M. Bourgeois, a former premier; M. (‘ombes, a former premier, and Rene | Renoult, one of the foremost parlia- mentary leaders of the Radicals e Republican Socialists have as members M. Briand, M. Viviani and Professor Painleve. The Socialist group is represented by Jules Guesde, who has been the So- cialist head since the death of Jean Leon Jaures, and by Marcel Sembat and Albert Thomas, prominent So- cialist leaders. The Democratic Left has as bers Gabriel Guist'hau and Joseph Thierry, while the Radical Left has Titienne Clementel as its representa- tive. The Royalist and Clerical element is represented by Denys Cochin. This embraces all the parties and groups in parliament which for years have been arrayed against each other. MM.

The designation of Jules Cambon, former Ambassador in Washington, Madrid and Berlin, as secretary gen- cral to the minister of forelgn affai is another innovation in the new cal inet, as it places an ambassador of wide experience for the first time in responsible direction of foreign quei- tions! ® N . i3 .
