PHOTo PLAYS
A decision on tho constitutionality of
tho censor law In Ohio will bo handed
down by tho United States Supreme Court
within tho next few weeks. Tho decision
will undoubtedly bo sweeping and far
reaching. It will establish finally whether
or not n Stnto has tho rlshl to censor pic
tures or whether photoplays have tho
nnmo status ns tho nowspapcr. In the
npponl of tho Mutual Film Company to
tho highest court In tho, land It Is con
tended that tho censor law places an un
lawful burden on Interstate com
merce; It Interferes with tho freedom of
the press and of speech, It delegates tho
powers of tho Legislature to Individual
oulcers. Counsel for tho company referred
to the opinion of the lower court, which
held that censorship of motion pictures
was nothing moro than anxcrclso of tho
pollco power, and that tho regulation of
iheatrc had from time Immemorlnl boon
considered a proper function of the pollco
poweri of the State. Ite snld ho had no
intention of disputing this opinion, but
ho pointed out that much moro than tho
regulation of theatres was Involved In
the censorship question. "The motion
picture," ho said, "served many other
purposes besides furnishing amusement.
"The motion plcturo is rapidly winning
its way Into tho schools and universities
cf the country. In mnny Instances tho
motion picture has como to take tho placo
of tho newspaper. Tho dissemination of
the world's news upon the Bcreen Is ono
of the most Important functions of tho
motion plcturo. Tho motion picture,
therefore, ought to enjoy tho same free
dom of expression which is accorded to
tho press Tho press is not subject to
previous restraint, 1. c, restraint before
the publication, though no ono will deny
thnt newspapers often carry very undo
slrablo matter from a moral point of
view."

A MOVIE PLOT SUSPECTED.
They wero hoisting a safo to tho tenth
story window of a building on Market
street, San Francisco, recently by tho
familiar block nnd fall method. A crowd
had gathered, nnd Vivian Rich, of tho
American-Mutual Company, making her
way through tho denso mob of Idly
curious peoplo toward tho shopping dis
trict, was seen by two men who stood
watching operations from ncross tho
street. Meanwhile the safe was slowly
climbing skyward.
"Know who thnt pretty girl Is?" ono
man asked tha other.
"Nope."
"What? Geo! Td know her among a
thousand Just from her picture. That's
Vivian 'Rich."
Just as ho said thl3 there camo from
high In tho air a snap nnd the rip of rope
fibre, and from below a chorus of horri
fied shrieks. With a crash tho safo hit
the sidewalk. Concrete chips flew In
every direction, dyglng sharp, biting
paths through clothing and skin. The
safo burst open. Women fainted. Men
pushed away madly.
"Huh I" oxclalmed the man across the
street, "They can't fool me! Just an
other ono of those 'movie' stunts."

CAPT. NIBLACK DEMOTED
rosea Tive Numbers for Grounding
Battleship Michigan.
Captain Albert P. Nlblack, who com
manded the battleship Ilichlgan when It
went aground off Queen City, JId., re
cently, has been reduced five numbers
in rank because of the accident. Lieuten
ant Commander Clarence L. Arnold, nav
igator of the warship, lost ten numbers.
Following the accident the officers were
court martlaled. The court sentenced
Captain Nlblack to a reduction of 20
numbers and Lieutenant Commander Ar
nold to a loss ot 40 numbers. These sen
tences were reduced by becretary of the
Navy Daniels.
The battleship Michigan was bound for
the Philadelphia Navy Y rd when the
accident occurred. It was the first time
Captain Nlblack had commanded a bat
Meshln. Both officers are well known In
this city. As Captain Nlblack loses two
of his extra numbers, the reduction
means a net loss ot three numbers.

comedy, "Tho Inspector General"; "Tho
Secret Orchard," a new version of Chan
nlng Pollock's dramatization, nnd Shaw's
wild little blank verso burlesque, "Tho
Admirnblo Bashvllle."
"Stage Breaks"
The audlcnco always enjoys a "break"
on tho stage. The only actor that can
get nny fun out of It Is the comedlnn of
a musical show. For Instance:
Tho gondolier who fell off Into the
Grand Canal when hlB boat grounded on
a "stago screw" during the first per
formance of "The Marriage of William
Ashe" dld'nt get hnlf ns much fun out
of tho Incident as the audience did. Tho
grand piano ln "The Song of Songs,"
which went on playing after tho actor
left It on tho first night in Now York,
probably enjoyed Itself. Tho nctor didn't.
But Frank TInncy "cats up" such llttla
errors. Every night In "Watch Your
Step" Mr. TInncy remarks:
"You know this Is a swell show and
everybody has to make good and get
applause."
Then ho fishes out nn American flag
from tho bottom of his pocket and gets
It. Tho other night tho ling wasn't forth
coming, but tho applause was. For tho
comedian brought out tho following llttlo
speech Instead of tho red, white and blue:
"You see, I usually have a flag to wave,
but ono of my envious rivals In this com
pany has stolen It. This troupo Is full of
professional Jealousy."

understand why Katherlne, becoming the
subsequent victor, docs not boast of her
triumph. And ot one of their meetings
before the curtain ho takes her to task.
Baptlsta: "Kate, Where's thy pluck?
If thou art the conqueror sure the tri
umph's to let Fetmchlo know It."
Katherlno: "I want no triumph."
Baptlsta: "Ho'll boast that he hath

MUSIC
Yesterday's Concert
A nroaram unenuallv divided between
Liszt and Padcrewskl was played by the
Philadelphia Orchestra yesterday after
noon. The symphony, by the latter com
poser, was tho chief number, but It did
not nil nn afternoon, nnd tho concert
lasted only a few minutes moro than an
hour.
Whether the symphony, which Is sup
posed to speak of Poland nnd Poland's
spirit In revolt, ranks with tho spoliation
of tho kingdom as n crlmo against It
Is a question for nntrlots nnd not for
musicians. Tho work is pretentious,
sometimes bombastic; It Is turgid with
thcmntlo material, uneven nnd unsat
isfying In emotion. An ndngto maestoso
begins tho work with furious trifles; an
allegro cndB It with a longlsh. plcco of
ttfnirrntr, mllatp. trnrtnt- the revolution Of
1JG3. Between them Is the only beau
tiful work of the whole sympnony, mo
nndnntc. Hero tho structure Is moro sim
ple and tho melodic stuffs aro moro sin
cerely worked out. Just why this sym
phony cannot be for Poland what tho
fifth Tschalkousky Is for Russia In not
hard to tell. Because this symphony Is
not Poland, but Padcrewskl.
To tho performance of this work Mr.
Stokowskl nnd his men addressed them
selves with unflagging ardor, and In Its
turbulence and disruption their work was
none tho losa rntlsfylng. But It was as
nothing compnied to tho miracle which
proceded.
Tho "Tasso" ot Liszt Is too familiar
and toa accurately annotated a text to
need comment nut In playing It tho
orchestra afforded Its hearers a new
pleasure, tho plenstiro of puro tone. Tho
groat fault of tho orchestra this year has
beon Insufficiency, Bometlmes downright
weakness, of tone. Yesterday afternoon
the strings first nnd eventually the whole
orchestra played with what we know ns
virtuoso tone, full sounding, rich and In
spired. It will not do to Inquire tho
whoreforo of this miracle, but fair warn
im, ot,i1 lm frlvmi tho orchestra that
now wo know It enn nehlevo so much
nothing else- will bo taken from It.
It has been held In tho reviews of tho
orchestra so far this season that, rcgard
lcis of the works played nnd tho plcnsuro
afforded by them, the orchestra owes It
to Its hearers to glvo them nn unvnrylng
satisfaction of tho car. Dulness nnd In
accuracy, overexertion nnd carelessness
havo seen gradually overcome. Yester
day, In the richly colored and splendlly
evocntlvo poem of Liszt, tho result of
Mr. Stokowski's labors appeared. Ho and
his men deserve to bo congratulated.
Mr. Stokowskl led with moro restraint,
but with no less Intelligence and enthu
siasm, than usual. It has been somewhat
mistakenly hold, although not by tho
conductor himself, that tho passion of
Interpreting music, which is second only
to tho passion of creation, must bo ex
pressed In gesture. Those who followed
tho conductor yesterday wero amply as
sured, In tho quiet and graceful motion
of his lending, of tho penetration and tho
understanding in study which preceded
tho concert. And us has been said, the
orchestra played so unwontedly llko vir
tuosi thnt n minimum of conducting
Beemed to suffice.
