School Boards in clUes of the third class in Penn sylvania, until the autumn at least, can Ignore the claims of the city treasurers for recognition In the parceling out of jobs of collectors of school taxes. The Superior Court has just granted a supersedeas in the case In which the local court directed the School Board of Carbondale to turn over to duplicate tax list to City Treasurer P, P. Hughes for collection. The higher court's ruling permits William J. -Evans, the board's choice as collector, to gather the taxes until the Superior Court hears vhe the case and disposes of it at its w ttlng in Pittsburgh, the date to be fixed later.

NOVELIST 'Q' WRITES HIS FIRST COMEDY The Popular English Story Toller Fnils as London Playwright Sir Artho QuIUcr-Coueh, fondly ltnown to the English reader ns "Q," has written his first play. Originally a critic and wr ter of verse, later nnd more famously a teller of prose romances, he has now come Into tho theater with a piece called "The Stayor of Troy," on which the Kngllsh reviewers passed a reluctantly adverse verdict. It was recently presented at tho Hnymarltet, with Honry Alnley In the lending role, an Englishman, who, nfter ten years as a pris oner of war; In Franco nt the beginning of tho Inst century, returns to find himself ciy much in tho way of those who had long supposed Mm dead. Says the writer In tho Times: "A first play In apt to be llko n tlrst lec ture, a first speech, u first symphony. There nre generally too many Ideas, too many 'nioemonts' In It. 'Q's' flrrt play, to be sure, has ono main Idea ot thesis, but It has too many casual Ideas, superfluous de tails, loose ends. His main Idea Is tho Inconvenience caused all round by tho re turn of the dead to life. Resurrection nt any rate after aufllclcnt lapse of time for wills to bo proved, property resettled and griefs to hnvc calmed down la a so cial nulsanco. When tho dead returns with fresh n lions, llko Slonto Crlsto, you have another story. But when ho comes back, lllto SInJor Toogood, without n penny, to nn estnto long since divided up among his heirs, he la certainly da trop and made to feel It." This oxccllent Idea, tho TImos critic finds. Is quite frittered nway In "Tho Slayor of Troy," which tho Telegraph finds utterly lacking in dramatic force and Q's cele brated humor. Tho pleco had a painfully brief career and has now given way to "Flshplngle," a comedy by tho tireless Sir. Vachel, wherein Sir. Alnley plays tho rolo of a domineering butler. Georgo Agnew Chamberlain, the novelist, author of "John Bogardus." "Through Stained Glass" and "At Homo," has just been appointed United States Consul Gen eral nt Havana. Sir. Chamberlain has been for several years Consul at Lorenzo Marques, Portuguese Cast Africa. A dramatization of Alice Ducr Sinter's romanco of n Southern country house, "Come Out of the Kitchen!" will be pro duced In San Francisco early In Augi untier mo management oi iienry .unicr. Ruth Chatterton Is scheduled to play the leading part. Captain Lincoln C. Andrews, U. S. A., first American Governor at Leyte, P. I., and a veteran of the Cuban and Philippine campaigns, spent n year in Mexico In 190G, becoming familiar with tho northern provinces particularly. Captain Andrews, whoso "Fundamentals of Military Service," recently published by the Llpplncott Com pany, Is the text-book In use at Plattsburg nnd other military training camps, has been recalled from tho Philippines for service with tho American army on tho Slexlcan border.

In the literary world and captain of militia in, the military world, writes from Nogales, Ariz.: "We are now In sight of Mexico, in tho most foreign town I have ever found In America. Our men look exactly like the hero and the villain of a,war play when tney come in tne iniru act, powdered witn white dust to the eyebrows." Mark Twain's "Innocents Abroad" Is one of the few volumes which have found space In the German U-boat during its subat lantlc voyagJP'" "Innocents Abroad," ex claimed her captain, humorously, "but that did not apply to us." Slark Twain's works have been carlred by travelers Into many strange parts of the earth and the sea ; now, perhaps, we shall hear of them as the joy of aviators. , Since early boyhood Frank H. Slmonds, author of "They Shall Not Pass," a book about the battle of Verdun, which has at tracted much attention, had predicted that during his life there would be a great Euro pean war, and for more than 20 years he made the study of warfare his hobby ; such is a statement which comes from the office of the Review of Reviews, which continues: "It was not unusual for him as a boy to hide from his playmates in order to pore over atlases, draw maps and study military details." All Sir, Slmonds's Instincts and training, It appears, Indicated a "war historian" In the making. Throughout bis career as a hard working and highly successful jour nalist in New York In times of peace, at no time jaj he neglected hla hobby, the study of war ; even hla vacations have been pent visiting the famous battlefields on the Continent.

In collaboration with Snmucl Crowder (Doublcday, Pago & Co., New York), Is tho best work of the kind that has appeared In years. As she states In her foreword. SIlss BJurstedt docs not attempt to mnko a critical analysis, but merely how she, holder of n host of ten nis titles, plays tho game. Sll.ss BJurstedt says tennis for women nnd tennis for men nre essentially different, nnd proes conclusively from her own ex perience on the courts of Norway nnd the United States that her play Is simply tho highest development of the woman's game, nml Is not patterned after that played by men. In her "Tennis For Women" SIlss BJurstedt docs not contlno herself to actual play, but touches on tho questions of keep ing In condition and maintaining it In a way which Insures one's nlwaya being at top form for tournament piny. On tho whole "Tennis For Women" Is nn excellent work, both for the female begin ner and the moro experienced player. Tho heroic mood engendered by present International complications will receive Slary Raymond Shlpman Andrew's little volume of threo short stories, "Old Glory" (Charles Scrlbner's Sons), with uncommon pleasure Tho colors wavo with thrilling effect through each of the stories, ahd the joyous spirit of "undiluted Americanism" sweeps all before It. 'Tho Colors," concerning a peculiarly In consistent patriot who declares In his reck less youth that America is a "gigantic Inter national joke," achieves his Itfo's ambition when he Is an English baronet, and later, faced with complicity In nn attack on the land of his birth, returns his allegiance thereto, suggests a somewhat far-fetched modern adaptation of 'The Slan Without a Country." "The Stranger Within tho Gates" Is artistically and dramatically presented. Its Italian hero Is humorous as well as tender, nnd a figure, successfully Intended to Inspire sympathy and affection for tho alien whoso loyalty to his new lnnd Is entirely untainted. 'The Star-spangled Banner" Is the effective conclusion to the little volume, leaving tho reader with a delightfully mixed mpresslon of tears and cheers. Slany of the readers of Edward A. Gray's latest book, 'The Twelve" (Fleming D. Revell Company), will gain from It a brnnd new realization of tho everyday humanll ness of the 13 apostles who "had been with Jesus." It Is written In a delightfully essalcal style and presents. In the simple straightforward language that goes with thorough organization of material, sym pathetic but acute analysis of tho divine personalities of those remarkable men. Sir. Gray shows the development of their Indi vidualities Into greater and greater dis tinctness as tlmo went on Individualities that were not shaped Into the sameness of a mold by their association with tho Slan of Nazareth, but rather were rounded out In conformity with their separate natures. The book contains chapters on the apostles In art and In literature. Tho Slexlcan revolution "made" John Reed. And. for a good many of us, Sir. Reed did the same service to the Mexican revolution. If that continental packing town of slaughter and slander which is eu phemistically known in certain literary cir cles as "the present conflict" has failed to arrange any such mutually advantageous deal with Sir.

All of which Is a rather carping preface to tho admission that Mr. Reed's newest, "The Wnr In Kastern Europe" (Charles Scrlbner's Sons, Now York). Is ft singularly distinguished book. It has color, vigor, life. Sir. Reed hns reacted to tho plcturesquo eastern front with in enthusiasm and a humor out of tho common.
