CHICAGO, June 19. The Fourth of July Is to be celebrated with the big gest demonstration of patriotism Illi nois has known! It is not to be a noisy Fourth, nor one devoted to sports and clamorous crowds bent on enjoyment. It is to be a day devoted to the seri ous consideration of the underlying principles of Americanism and the pur poses of the Nation. The demonstration will be directed by the Illinois Council of Defense. Every municipality in the state will co-operate. In Chicago the citizens' war board will be in full charge. Every church In the state will be requested to hold a special service on that day it falls on Wednesday and to urgre every member of the congre gations to attend. All to Fly Flag. Every public building and every schoolhouse will fly the Stars and Stripes. Every labor, fraternal, religious and civic organization has been asked to help. Every public park and village green will be the scene of a meeting, It is planned. Not a single agency that reaches any individual in the state is over looked in the plans. In every city, town and village there will be public meetings, where the Declaration of Independence and Lin coln's Gettysburg address will be read, and there will be speeches. To the children will be explained how America became a Nation, her tra ditions and history, why the Nation is at war and the present duties and ob ligations of its citizens. To get such a celebration one of thoughtfulness and of prayer the Council of Defense has appealed to religious denominations, to editors, to the Mayors of 4C0 cities and villages, to 1000 commercial organizations, to the Grand Army of the Republic, to fraternal societies, labor unions and organizations whose members are foreign-born. The council's plan is not to inter fere with the arrangements for any local demonstration. War Board Will Help. The citizens' war board, which will handle the Chicago and suburban ar rangements, has issued an appeal sim ilar to that of the state council. Plans will be laid this week by the board under the direction of Harry A. Wheeler, its president, and Harrison B. Riley, chairman of its executive committee. The suggestion has been made that Chicago be divided into districts and that mass meetings be held in each locality. It is planned to ask the Chi cago churches to decide upon a def inite hour for their services, so that they will not conflict with the hour for the mass meetings. In the holding of mass meetings it is planned that every city park, as well as some of the larger buildings, will be utilized. An effort will be made to have every man, woman and child in the city at tend at least one of the patriotic serv ices on that day. NORTHCLIFF IS LAUDED 91. TARDIEU. OF FRENCH MISSION, VOICES SATISFACTION. Journalist of Republic Welcomes Com ing of Brttinb Journalist to Amer ica Co-operation Planned. KEW YORK, June 15. Andre Tar 3ieu, at one time foreign editor of Le Temps and now head of the French mis sion in the United States, welcomes Lord Northclifte as permanent head of the British mission to the United States. At the same time M. Tardleu took occa sion to explain in some detail the work which Is being" done by his own mis sion in conjunction with the missions of the several allies at Washington and elsewhere. He expressed a hope that the Russian mission will see fit to co operate with the representatives of the other allies. "I have no need to speak for "Lord Xorthcliffe in America, where he is so well known and liked." said Mr. Tar dleu. "But I have known him for many years, and I am deeply gratified that Great Britain has been moved to dele gate to one of her. journalists the task of heading- her mission to America. No body but Lord Northcliffe would have been able to tell Britain, as he did, her mistakes in the war, how the war might best be managed and what steps should be taken to improve military efficiency. He Is a good man to tell Americans of tho necessity for fighting the war as efficiently aa possible. M. Tardleu explained that the organi sation of the French mission, with its elaborate personnel of 300 to 400 indi viduals and many minor missions, was now completed. Different departments have been constituted under experts to take care of the following questions: Military, naval, financial, war manufac turing, food and shipping. All these separate departments in reality sep arate missions are directly under the control of M. Tardieu, who, before he left France, obtained from every min istry in the French government full authority to decide, without consulta tion with the several ministers, all questions which might arise in con nection with the departments' functions on this side of the ocean. All the mis sions are to be permanent here during the war.. In Europe, he explained, the central clearing-house for allied wants is the Inter-Allied Commission, which deter mines what the different allies require, formulates their needs and passes on the requests to the missions in Wash ington. These Washington missions tell the American Government their needs and the American Government fulfills thein as far as possible, accord ing to the needs of the American Army. All contracts are made directly with the American Government. There are no more private intermediaries. "Our relations with the departments of the American Government are excel lent," said M. Tardleu, "and we have every reason to expect they will con tinue so. The American Government now realizes the efforts necessary to win the war and I believe that the peo pie will soon come to realize the great rteed for the attainment ox universal . oflioiencjV f . - .x t K .

OLD PLAY PLEASES "Ten Nights in a Bar Room" Given by Alcazar Players. MAYO METH0T WINS HOUSE Pathos of T. S. Arthur's Famous Melodrama Carried Without Dis sent and Affecting Scenes Admirably Portrayed. For the closing week of their long: and successful season the . Alcazar Players are putting on that old stand by of philosophy and good advice, "Ten Nights in a Barroom." The play has possibly a pertinent appeal just now that the question of Nation-wide pro hibition is being discussed on every side, and a good sized audience at yes terday s matinee applauded vigorously 11 the old lines. Strong drink was not a favorite with the audience, and whenever virtue reigned triumphant and vice was given a solar plexus the enthusiasm was un bounded. Thanks to the exquisite play ing of little Mayo Methot and George R. Taylor, the pathos of the story re mained true pathos and never leaped over the line to become bathos. Mr. Taylor played the role of Joe Morgan, who is rescued from the gut ter and made a man through the affect ing death of bis child at the hands of the saloonkeeper. Mayo plays the melodramatic role with charming simplicity and a nat uralness that brought tears to eyes un accustomed to weeping. Mr. Taylor, too, gives sincere por trayal, marked with woe.' His regen eration scene at the child's bedside be comes quite affecting. Henry Norman is excellent as the saloonkeeper, Slade; Peggy Winston qualifies as his sad wife, and Walter Gilbert steps out of his duties as stage director to capably enact the .role of Young Slade. George P. Webster wanders through the action as a good man full of morals and quotations, and Walter Seigfried gives a highly interesting portrayal of the role of Harvey Green, who becomes a murderer over a card game. Corry Jones, as the young village squire, and Herbert Porter in the quaint comedy role of Sa.mple Swichel add interest. Lora Rogers contributes her delightful personality to the role of Mehitable Cartright. There are five acts and each act offers two or three scenes. There will be a matinee on Wednesday and on Saturday. The Italian Mannllcher-Carcano Is or the 1891 pattern. It is rather alow, discharging but 15 rounds of shot a minute.
