Vrora the Detroit News, Clyde Fftch, the playwright said of Mr. Mansfield's death: "Mansfield did not have a lovable or affectionate personality; his was intel lectual achievement, but he had hla own magnetism, which made the few who did love him, love him first and laat ' But he would have loved to have beer, loved. He was too big a man to stoop to little tricks to win affection. 'He was a real actor, a real artist ana big in both. We cannot compare him with anybody. There was no emotion that he could not expresa. He has helnad raise the standard of the stone. The noble place he made for himself In tha theatre must stay empty. Richard Mansfield's glory will always remain his own." .... Daniel Frohman, the theatrical man ager wno, some years ago, signed a threw Years' contract with Mr. Mans field, which terminated In exactly three weeks, said: . A man possessed oi mansiieia srlfts. but wlthbut his Intellect never would have reached Mansfield's plana This Quality, this penetrating intellect was or ntue vaiue to mm in ciassio roles but it made, him peerless aa a character actor.

Are Women Replacing Men on Stage? From Current Literature. Thar a waa a time when no women was permitted even to enter the theatre, much less enter a theatrical career. The feminine parts on the stage were taken bv men and boys, liven Shakes peare never saw one of his female char acters enacted by a woman. His Por tias, Juliets, Desdemonas and Ophelias war- taken by boys. Professor Ralelah ascribes to this fact the miraculous de velopment or tne poetic urama in tne days Of Elizabeth. Archie Bell, a writer In the Theatre magraxlne. biinaa out another aspect of the same question leas favorable to boy actors. Some of them, we are told, were 40 years of age and a Jolly old chronicler informs us that real kings were sometimes kept waiting for the performance to begin on than any other single force. Th the atre In return has done more for woman than any other Institution, and at pres ent her supremacy Is almost unques tioned In the theatrical world. Nordu contends that the future of poetry belongs to children and women. May the same be true of the stage T Mr. Bell evidently holds the belief that it will, which he bases uDon tha fact that not content with overshadowlna man, woman even takes his best- parts from him, snd.

Maude Adams as Peter Pan and L'Alglon, of this generation and several women of th past century have given ample aatisfaction In mas culine roles.

The chorus the representative of the lowest oaste In theatredom. and his more fortunate brothers are merely hanging on tha thread of custom, which Is likely to snap at any moment and leave thm relics of the day when there were men actors on the stage of the theatre. From How Easy, the New Tork World. There will be 992 delegates in the Re publican national convention of 1908, with 497 votes necessary to a choice. Of these 992 delegates S32 will come from southern states where the Re publican organization Is In the hands of federal office holdera, St will coma from territories where the Republican organization Is also In the hands of federal office holders, 156 will come from states west of the Mississippi, where Mr. Roosevelt's anti-corporation policies are most admired and where his Jingo battleship demonstration Is most popular. These three groups will represent 614 votes In the convention a safe working majority. How easy It would be for Mr. Roose velt to control that convention! How easy to renominate himself If that hap pened to be bis Duroose! With the southern, western and ter ritorial delegates solidly behind him Mr. Roosevelt would not requlr,.the Vote of .a solitary delegate frond any State north of Mason and Dixon's line and east, of the Mississippi river.'

Sine Secretary Taft has been talk ing it la apparent why he has been selected by the present government to become the government that Is to be. If Mr. Taft has any original Ideas or sentiments he keeps them carefully to himself. His speeches all say In effect: "If you like what I say, reserve your applause. I'm only the humble phono graph which delivers to you the Great Voice. If you want me for president, you won't get me; you will get the owner of the Voice, of which I am the meek and lowly echo.' A candidate for the highest office in the land who will thus demean himself la not the sort of candidate that the people want The president of the United States ought to represent the people, not any Individual; and an aspirant for that of fice must make his canvass as a man and not as a phonograph.
