Conduit Road Line For Gas Is Opposed The District engineer's office through Lieutenant Colonel Langfltt has made a report to the Senate District Commit tee against the bill authorizing the Georgetown Gas Light Company to lay a gas main along Conduit road from Foxhall road to the District line. Lieu tenant Colonel Langntt holds that the laying of the main and putting in of cross sections would havo destructive effect on the road and would be dan gerous to the safety of the aqueduct and the water supply of Washington. General Blxby, chief of englneeers, concurs In the report. In view of the objections raised by tho army engineer and the danger to the water supply ' which they point out, it is considered unlikely the committee will recommend the bill favorably.

The Mercantile National Bank, or ganized thrpo yoara ago an the Provi dent Savlnes Bank, was absorbed at the close of business yesterday by the Union Savings Bunk. It will not reopen. The shareholds of the Mercentlle will recclvo 110 a share par value for their etock from the iTnlon savings Bank, and tho assets and liabilities of the former will be assumed by the latttr C. Ij. Bowman, the cashier of tha Mercantile, will assume the duties of treasurer of the Union Savings Bank, and II Is expected that E. Southard Tarker will ho elected president at tho first meeting of the director, early next wee1. . During the years between 1820 and 1831 there lived in quaint chambers on Inner Temple lane, London, Charles Lamb and his talented sister Mary. Both of these writers a" best known today by their "Tales From 3hakcs peare," of which tho tragic ones were written by Charles and the comic ones by Mary Lamb, but in the years men tioned these two were reputed for their, hospitality and for the notable charac ter of the social gatherings which oc curred in their chambers. Some enthu siastic biographers have compared these Historic "meetings with the celebrated evenings of tho Holland House for bril liancy and profundity. Among the friends who mado tho supper parties with Charles and Mary Lamb memor able were Coleridge Lloyd, Southey, Wordsworth, Hazlett, Leigh Hunt, Tai fourd, George Dyer, and Tom Hood, and with these when the coffee, houses closed It was a favored expression, "Let's go around to the Lambs'." Club Is Formed. Years after, when most of these not able personages had Joined the major ity, the parties at tho Lambs' were dis cussed in genial reminiscence In the clubs and coffee houses of London. It was the tenderness In which these re collections were held that caused a number of young actors and writers, forming a club In London, to coll them selves the Lambs. Members of this London organization, migrating to America, and lonesome for the atmos phere of the London club, organized a similar organization in New York, which subsequently became the succes sor and the heir of the London club. The earlier shepherds of the New York Lomba were English actors Montague, Wallack, and Beckett. Following these were Billy Florenco, and the lino of American players and writers that have since that time presided over the world known organization. It Is, therefore, seen that the Lambs have a lineal and logical title, not only to their name, but to the spirit that tontrols them. If there exists anywhere In America any suggestion of the fra ternal and convivial and literary flavor that made the various coteries of Lon don coffee houses famous. It Is to be found in the Lambs. "Why havo you Joined that club?'' the wife of a prominent attorney recently asked her husband. "You are a' member of the Metropoli tan, the University, the Athletic, tho Lawyers', and several other clubs, and I should think those were enough.' "I Joined the Lambs, my dear,' the hubband replied, "because when I leave Wall Street and go to any of the clubs you havo named, I find there a number of men as weary as myself who have also left Wall Street or name- other busi ness section and retained only sufficient vitality wearily to order a cocktail. When I gQ Into the Lambs' Club at the same hour any afternoon I meet fifty or sixty wide-awake men who have Just finished breakfast." Atmosphere Inspiring. It Is undoubtedly this Inspiring at- mAanhArA thflt makpfl tn tha rlnh of an afternoon that hum which Is attractive to Us lay members. The real flavor of the club, however, Is found In the small hours of tho morning; that time of 3entlo relaxation when the Players' work Is over and when he abandons himself to the gregarious appreciation of his fellow artists. Much has been written of the nights at the "Cheshire Cheese," with John son, Garrlck, Goldsmith, Edmund Burke, and Reynolds In the company, but It is much to be doubted It the brilliancy of those nights In any way excels other nights tn the earlier days of the present Lambs' Club, when the unclothed supper table had Its benches Maurice Barrymore. Steele Mackaye, Sydney Rosenfeld, Nat Goodwin, Stuart Robson, Wilton Lackaye, Bllty Florenca and Beckett. The ponderous dominance of Johnson was unquebtlonably absent, but the flow and sparkle and nlmblenesa of wit was In nowise Inferior. Many of these men who made the old Iamhs famous have passed away, but those famllar with its present member ship and capable of measurement are confident that the club today Is 'living In a golden time which needs only a mellowing perspectiveto make Its rpcol. lections deservedly historic. Goodwin. I Crane, and Lackayq are etiU (hero and GREEK TRAGEDY TO BE PRESENTED HERE Out-of-Door Production of "Elec- tra" of Euripides Promised for May 25. AUGUSTUS THOMAS. about them are gathered the trenchant wit and the gentlo humor of Gillette and Collier, MacDonough and Hobart, Hopper and Tarklngton, Hodge, Lpw Fields, Ed. Kembell and a score of others. Dramatists Members. Tho Lambs' Club is a strong club be cause with Its artistic and musical cle ment there Is united that of the dra matic writers. There Is no American dramatist of prominence, and hardly one of successful record, who Is not a member of the club. A roll call of Its playwrights sounds like a theatrical hall of fame Gillette, Belasco, Klein, Broadhurst, Royle, Presbrey, Greene, KJdder, Ongley, De Mllle, Thomas, Ho bart, MacDonough, Collier, Manners, Rose, Ade, Blossom, Herbert, Backus, Carle, Cressy, Dazey, Davis, Dletrlch- teteln, Dunne, Hlggtns. Hughes, Ma pes, Tarklngton, Osbourne, Paulton, PIxley, Pond, Selwyn, Edgar Smith, H. B. Smith, Wlnchell Smith, Stewart, Wise, Swan. At the head of Its musicians are Vic tor Herbert and Reginald De Koven, accompanied by such names as Harry Rowe Shelley, Victor Harris, Theodore Rpndlx. Louise Gottschalk. Henry K. Hadley, Gustave Kerker, Gustavo Lud- ers. A. tJaiawin Bioane, Armur weia, and others. Tho scenic artists of the country are or. its rolls, and a majority of the fa mous colorlsts or America, wun tioDert Reld, Metcalfe, SlmmonB, and Finn at their head. A dlsUnctlve feature of the club Is ts monthly entertainment In which. In addition to some excellent foolery, there In generally a dramatic skit too much of an Innovation or too problematic for a production by the regular theaters. Many of our greatest dramatic novel ties havo their tentative presentation at the Lambs. "The Squaw Man" was an anticipation of a one-act sketch done at one of Its gambols. When managers thought "The Witching Hour" too wide a departure rrom tne accepiea suDjects of the playhouse, a performance of one act In the Lambs and the quick seizure of It by that diversified audience proved Its right to a wider hearing. Audacious Experiments. Some of the most audacious nvjlcal experiments that the theater has seen were first tried at the Lambs' Club. Many an actor condemned by precedent and habit to one line of character finds his emancipation through some bold essay before this generous and keenly appreciative audience. It is this side of the old club's activity that comes somewhat near Justifying the claim of Its members that the Lambs' Club is and always will be the real national theater of America, no matter what palatial playhouses may be bullded with that Intent. In the old coffee house days the opln The Coburn Players will on Saturday evening, May 23, present the "Electra" of Euripides on tho grounds of the Western High School. Whenever this great tragedy of the most modern Greek dramatists has been given. It has been an Instantaneous suc cess At Princeton University, where It was 'produced last week for the first time In this country, tho audience sat spellbound throughout the performance, despite a rain coming up In the middle of it. The version used by the Coburn Players is that of Prof. Gilbert Murray, who has translated the lines of Euripides Into English rhyming verse. The revival of Interest in the play Is due to a great extent to the music set ting given it by Richard Strauss, pro duced a few times In Now York and Philadelphia last winter. Tho Coburn Players use Mr. Murray's version, which Is nearer to the spirit of the original Greek than any translation heretofore made, to be admirably suited to an out-of-door performance, and they have re ceived unstinted congratulation wher ever thev have presented It. ACCEPTED BY FINE ARTS C01ISS1 Frank D. Millet Approved Colored School Scheme as One of Last Acts. Among the last official acts of Frank D. Millet, the Washington artist, who met death in the Titanic disaster, was his approval of the plans for tho new colored normal school building to be erected in Georgia ' avenue north of iju-.u jjiutc. iiua oecamo Known yes terday when formal announcement was made of tho acceptance of the designs for the building by the Fine Arts Com mission, of which Mr. Millet was a member. Before sailing from New York with Major Archibald Butt. Mr. Millet ad dressed to the Commlsloners a letter complimenting the architects Leon E. Dezzez and Snowden Ashford upon the plans for the normal school. The building will be of colonial design. occupying a terraco thirty feet above Georgia avenue and consisting of two stories and a basement. The sum of $200,000 was appropriated for Its con struction. Bids will bo called for prob ably In August, and then It Is expected the building will be ready for occupancy By September l, 1913. v Events Which Make This Date Notable Fourteen years ago today William E. Gladstone, prime minister of England and one of tho greatest names in her history, died. He was born in 1809. On May 19. 1613, the colonies of Massachu setts Bay, Plymouth. Connecticut and New Haven confederated under the name of the United Colonies of New England. Ninety years ago today Itur bldo was proclaimed Emperor of "Mex ico. Twelve years later occurred the death of General LaFayette. Ho was born In Auvorgno in 1757 and died In Paris.

"Va was playing In Sprlnghan's al ley," Cot a told the court, "and Henry just shied that brick at me expecting me to dodge. He wasn't mad. and neither was r. He didn't want to hurt mc, and I don't want him sent down." Assistant United States Attorney Ralph Given, who had refused to dis miss the case at Cora's request, said tnat the woman told a different story when she came for the warrant for Ford yesterday. Policeman L E. Adams, of tho Fourth precinct, told the court that the woman had been In hos pitals several times as icrult of Ford's "'playfulness.'" "You'd better find omethlnc softer than Micks to use In your games in the future." observed Judge Pugh as he Imposed sentence. Submarine Damaged. NORFOLK, May 19.
