Ir.it+i tand theee. usually, are the majority), the
delta*; of Adrea will chiefly appeal by reason
cf it* implications of theatrical situation, its start
!icc ejects of climax, and its gorgeous scenic ln
rrstiture. To ihcughtful minds It will come home
as an illuminative and significant exposition of
hursun r.eture. artfully made through the medium
cj a voDderful picture of human life in the antique
»or!<J: and in this it reaches much further than to
th» fulfilment of an lmm^liate theatrical need. Like
tti<" more c'.asn? drsaatlsts of the (Sarrlck era. its
euthoi-g have drawn thrlr inspiration from the great
fountain of historic antiquity — adjusting, rearrang

a rir-h and permanent addition to the literature of
the stage— by which is hr-re BMsUrt, not things that
arr mace to be read, but things that are made to be
acted.
The ecenie ernbelUFhment of this : lay Is magnifl
r*nt. The incidental music, arranged by William
Kurst, is spproririate ar.d singularly expressive*.

against :J:e obvious hindrance of severe illness. The

that it is humorous for the knight to put both his

Mr. Currier fancies that he is funny when he tries

A NEW PLAY BY ADE.
Just before George Ad>- sailed for Porto Rico and
Mexico yesterday, he signed a contract with Henry
W. Savage, agreeing to write a play for that mana
ger to be called "The Second Time on Earth." The
signing of the contract means that Mr. Ade will
continue to write plays for Mr. Savage, who pro
duced Mr. Ades Sultan of Sulu." when the Indian*
author was unknown as a playwright and later
produced "Peg-gy from Paris," '"The County Chair
man." "The Sho-Gun" and "The College Widow." I
have had "The Second Time on Earth" in mind for a
long time," said Mr. Ade yesterday. "It will be a
comedy of modern life, and will be strictly American.
The principal character will represent a millionaire,
who has a wayward eon. The latter to pet his
father's fortune" has the old man committed to a
sanatorium. After a time the old man sets his
freedom, and it develops that his sojounr in the
sanatorium has* completely rejuvenated him. The
old man returns to the outside world younger In
his actions than the son."
"The Second Til on Earth" will have an early
production next season.

NEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUNE. THURBDAY. JANUARY 12. 1905.
AMERICAN PRESS FREE.
Chicago Press Club Celebrates Its
Twenty-fifth d I n viversary.
Chicago. Jan. 11.— The tw*nty-flfth anniv^rsarj' of
th" founding of the Chicago s*reßß Club was cele
brated to-nijtht, with a banquet in the clubroomß.
In after dinner speeches statesmen and, authors of
national reputation, invited guests and newspaper
men prulsod the power and Influence of the Ameri
can press in the highest terms. The principal
■peakfrs of the evening were Colonel George Har
vry, of New-York, and Governor Albert E. Cum
mins of lowa. Two hundred and Forty members of
th© club, with their s.imsHi. were present. Homer
J. Carr, president, was toastmaster. Colonel Ha.r A
vey, in responding to the toast. "The Freedom of
th« Press, 1 said
/There- is no press in the world comparable to
that of America in freedom from Influence, political
or social, from venality, from contamination of any
Kind whatsoever. In ! ranee, a newspaper's opin
ions are. a matter of francs; In England, too often
of titles; in Germany. Austria and Spain, of im
perial favor; in Russia, of absolute censorship. In
America, thanks to the maintenance of the sturdy
traditions established by the Greeleys, Raymonds,
Uanas. Bennetts. Medills and Bowleses of the
Past, the fundamental integrity of the press cannot
be Impugn**. It is faultful, but it Is free. Wt
nave our rdly exaggerated headlines on week
<Jay*. and our monstrosities on Sundays; we have
amazing productions of no less amazing "art"; we
nave columns »nd columns of crime, and pages and
pages of waste. Finally, not least, at any mte. in
numbers, we have our red and white papers, some
times referred to an "yellow Journals.'
Personally. i should be of the last to defend or
maKo apology for this latest manifestation of com
mercialism, misdirected ambition and false doc
trines In the American press. But. however seri
ously we may regret and resent the ebullition, we
cannot ignore the Irrestistible conclusion that this
Particular channel, and this alone, affords a vent
{■° r unexpressed beliefs and suspicions which can
De dissipated only by the clear rays of reason fol
lowing any form or expression
As contrasted with our own country. Russia to
day stands forth a vivid example of the effect of
suppressed opinion. Discontent would better burn
tnan smoulder. The continuous hissing of offensive
gases escaping li not pleasant but it is infinitely
preferable to the otherwise inevitable explosion,
let more important, more vital to the permanence
or a government of a whole people by ihenv3elves. is
absolute freedom of expression. Upon that all de
pends. Restrict it. or create the impression in sus
picious minds that it is being restricted, and you
sow the wind.
With this general dictum few if any would have
the hardihood to disagree. But it is often. ?.nd I
regret to say often truly, urged that 'iberty Is sub
verted to license. Freedom of speech, freedom of
publicity, yes; all admit the wisdom and necessity
of preserving both. But how frequently is added,
especially by men in public office, a vigorous
declamation against "unfair criticism" and how
almost dally is uttered, sometimes a violent and un
warranted, sometimes a dignified and justifiable,
protest against "invasion of privacy," "encroach
ment upon personal rights" and like offences.
Only those behind the curtain of the editorial
sanctum can fully appreciate the proportion of In
sincerity contained in the virtuous avowals of
shy and retiring, though weak and human beings
of both sexes. In nine cases out of ten. the most
vociferous protest may be attributed safely to self
sufficiency, snobbishness or a guilty conscience.
There is so little of malice in American news
papers as to be unworthy of notice, but It Is un
questionably true that too little heed is paid to
the fact that un wilful misrepresentation is often
quite as serious in effect.
Worst of all is the refusal to rectify a known
error. Cursed be the man who initiated the policy
of never making a retraction in the columns of his
Journal! The mere- fact that an individual, whether
right or wrong. Is virtually voiceless and helpless
in controversy with a newspaper, should and does
morally vest him with the right to exceptional
consideration. A lie once started can never be
stopped, hut the one responsible for its circula
tion, directly or indirectly, who falls to exert every
possible endeavor to that end is unworthy of asso
ciation with decent men. An American newspaper
should be an American gentleman.
To see the right is genius; to do It is courage.
Unite the two under the banner of Bane Idealism,
and the most potent force in the cause of progress,
enlightenment and good will He in the free press
of America.
HEARING ON PARSONS PLAN TO-DAY.
Civic Organizations Will Rally to Support of
City Club's Bronx Park Protest.
There Is to be a public hearing to-day at the office
of the Rapid Transit Commission, No. 320 Broad
way, on the plans which William Barclay Parsons
put forth tentatively two weeks ago. Brooklyn,
The Bronx. Queens and Richmond have arranged
to send delegations, while Manhattan will be there
in force.
The fight to save Bronx Par* will be made by
representatives of many Bronx organization", who
will protest against the Parsons plan to run an ex
tension of the subway through the park. Protests
have been Bent to the Rapid Transit Commiasion
by many persons, who will be unable to be present.
Mr. I'arsons and George S. Rice., chief engineer,
will probably speak in defence of the plan. There
will be a discussion of me alternative route udvo
cated by the City Club and The Bronx organiza
tions.
Arthur Yon Brie.-en baa sent a protest to Mr.
Orr, Baying:
1 protest as a citizen and taxpayer against the
usr of public parks of this city for railroad pur
i.,,*es It has been sufficient of a struggle, as
your board will know, to secure for the inhabitants
of this city proper breathing spots; a sufficiency of
such' breathing places has not even now been ob
tained When the. citizens on holidays seek the
eiMoyment which these parks afford them, they are
entitled to be received in the quiet of nature. This
protest which Is sincere throughout, should re
ceive further support from the fact that the pro
posed extension can be conveniently carried from
the Intersection <>f Tremont-ave. and Boston Road
around the park, and In such doee proximity
thereto as to brine its station quite close to an
entrance to the park.
The Torrey Botanical «'lub, at a meetlruj on
Tuesday night passed a resolution condemning tho
proposed extension.
HEARERS TO DIE YOUNG.
Consumption Will Kill One-third,
Dr. Walbarst Tclh Audience.
Half the people in the world have consumption,
according to I»r. A. 1.. Walbarst. surgeon at Beth
Israel Hospital and the New-York Polyclinlc. H«
told the audience he was addressing at the Men's
club of Qrac* Chapel. No. 41G East Thlrtee.nih-«t..
last evening, that on prUtdpte half of them had con
sumption. When thl« teemed to meet with liula
credence he declared that one-third of those pres
riu would probably die from jonnumptlon, and die
young, too.
Dr. Walbarst then went on to show how con
sumption might be prevented. Good food, plenty
of .sunshine and fresh air would destroy the germs
ana the open air treatment, if taken in time would
cure consumption, he said. Every person who suf
fered from a cough that did not yield to treatment
should consult a physician, he declared, although
not all who coughed had consumption.

MANY HONOR MR. BALDWIN
Well Known Men <it Memorial Ser
lice at Church of the Messiah.
A jervice In memory of William H. Baldwin. Jr..
president of the Long Island Railroad Company.
was held yesterday afternoon in the Church of
the Messiah, and was conducted by the Rev. Minot
J. Savage.
The church was crowded with men well known
In business and finance, with Harvard College
friends of Mr. Baldwin, employes, and representa
tives of social, civic and religious organisations.
Mrs. Baldwin, the widow, occupied a p«w with her
two children, and members of Mr. Baldwin's family.
At 4 o"clock Mr. Savage came to the front of the
pulpit and said that as at that moment all the
trains on the Long Island system were still in
honor of the dead man it was fitting that the au
dience should Join with thousands of others to pay
their respects. A selection from the Scriptures wae
read. Then Dr. Felix Adler began a eulogy of Mr.
Baldwin. He said in part:
hiVii? lm P° ss ' bl * to "ingle out any one object of
?, i e . tO *IWeUl WeU on - M hlB whole nature was mani
rested in his every utterance. He was a man
tjpical of the best influence of modern democracy
kP'L 1 ? ood He wa " a typical American. By
mrth he was a New-Englander. by congeniality and
progress he was a Westerner, by his public service
and understanding of social conditions he was a
man of the South. He belonged to the metropolis
on account of the large and ever loyal part he
took in our civic life.
Dr. Adler spoke of Mr. Baldwins work for the
negro and toward the solution of various civic prob
lem?, and closed by saying that his photograph
should be placed in the Council Chamber of the
city. Tho Rev. Robert Collyer's eulogy was of Mr.
Baldwin's boyhood and manhood. He remarked:
"What can I say better than Amen' to what has
been said?"
Said Mr. Savage:
T have met many mon I respected, many I ilked.
a rumb^r I have reverenced; but of Mr Baldwin J
can truly say. I loved him. His was a character
as utterly beyond question of reproach as one could
niiTifTinp. He could not be tempted. He could al
ways be counted on. and was equal to anything he
ejrwr undertook. His life waa a victory, and it is a
victory we celebrate to-day.
Broker T. Washington spoke of Mr. Baldwin's
life and the deep interest he had taken in Tuskegee
Institute, of which he was a trustee, and in the
colored race In the South. His help to the institute.
he said, had been great "in adding to its material
and educational foundation." but "was as nothing
when compared to th«> moral and religious Influence
which his presence and faith inspired among teach
ers arid studt-ntn."
The trains on the. Long Island road remained
motionless yesterday for two minutes. All the of
nces in the business departments at the main sta
tion in Long Island City were closed at noon.

WHEN NEW-YORK DIGB ITSELF OUT.
To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir. In Thursday's issue under the head of "Block
Mountain Roads," you represent us as in a terrible
plight. Now. the facts are so different that we
should recommend that you people in New-York
come up here and winter, when you succeed in dig
ging yourselves out of your drifts. We have only
six Inches of snow, no winds or drifts so far, mail
running every day regular, and there has been no
Interruption of telephone or telegraphic communica
tion, and the lowest reach of the thermometer so
far this winter in our village of Peru has been only
1 degree below zero. Therefore our many friends
abroad n*-ed not worry about js.
