tho bono of the school system nnd
that all educators agreed that

solvo tho problem. Tho laws aro
moro to blame than anything else
for the present condition of affairs.

tributing the Stato appropriation
One-third of the distribution is bas
ed on tho number of schools. This
hns served to multiply small schools
and keep them In existence. Dr.

any greater superstitions in the coun
try than in the cities. Ho said the

wow doctors, clairvoyants, magic

"THE THIRD DEGREE."
Again Honcsdalo Is to Have u High
Priced Play.
Tho most startling dramatic sonsn
tlon of tho present season nnd ono by.
tho author of that former startler,
"Tho Lion nnd tho Mouse' In "Tho
Third Degrco" which, with tho samo
elaborate stago equipment as char
acterized tho former, comes to Hones
dalo on Wednesday, Feb. 23rd, for
ono night under tho management of
Henry B. Harris, who also produced
" Tho Lion and tho Mouso."
Without a slnglo improper lino this
play has succeeded by reason of its
virility, and without appealing to
tho morbid element that find their
greatest theatrical entertainment In
off-color plays, "Tho Third Degree"
broke every house record previously
established, and even through the
Lenten season, tho worst In nil tho
year In Now York, packed and jam
med tho big Hudson Theatre when
many of tho other houses had closed
for this period.
It Is no iilore than fitting that the
man who wrote "Tho Lion and tho
Mouse" should come back and write
another play that Is even greater
than its famous prouecessor the
story of how a young girl, unaided
and alone, with nothing to assist
her but a woman's wit and Ingenuity,
lights single hnnded ngalnst tho pow
erful Influence of the police and
wins.
Marlon Korby, In tho rolu of the
girl, Illustrates tho highest reach of
umotlonal acting, and that the select
ing of Miss Korby for this part was a
master-stroke for Mr. Harris, the
producer, was best shown by the ex
cellent criticisms accorded her work.
Alfred Moore, about whom little
can be said that is not already known,
In the part of Captain Clinton, who,
with tiroless energy for seven long
hours, subjects his victim to a tor
ture that can only bo compared with
those of the Spanish inquisition,
again demonstrates his value as an
actor ofunusual ability.
The sale of seats for this remark
able drama will begin on Feb. 21st.
