JUST A PACE FROM LIFE Playwright Says There Is No Semitism or Anti-Semitism in His Drama Beautiful 8tage Settings. a I i-mMm i Tnm 7w Tah Trurl PArtlS. Oct. 13. Henry Bernstein's newest play.

Israel, "was produced to-night py Mme. Rejane at her remodeled and it" is probable that It agreeable subject. On choosing- a title Bernstein consulted his superstition, which bids him to name all his plays in a -word of six letters, after the success of "Rafale" and Wolf The title susrests perhaps too strongly a very Polemic play after the manner of "Le Retour de Jerusalem." but -the playwright himself disclaims any desire to prove anything. He simply puts on the stage a chapter from life as he sees It. "It's Impossible for me to conceive a work which aims to prove the superiority of this or that." he said to me to-day.

As for Semitism or anti-Semitism, there Is nothing of that in Israel, except in so far as the characters express their own sentiments. I am a Jew myself, and a very happy one. I don't say proud, because it seems to me ridiculous to boast of anything: so involuntary as birth. I feel strongly, however, that that part of my being one calls temperament which makes me an artist I owe to my origin. As to the plot of the play.

It Is unnecessary to go into details now. as the story was disclosed for the first time In these columns over a week ago. Suffice- it to say that it concerns a young boy strongly anti-Semitic, who discovers that his own father is a Jew; not only that, but. this Jew causes a conflict In the boy's mind and soul when he learns that his mother had not been faithful to her husband, and that he is of Jesuit origin himself. Louis Gauthler played this boy's part, the leading character In the play, very brilliantly.

Mme. Rejane played the mother, the only woman's role in the piifee. Tho scene between the mother and son. in which the boy discovers the truth, is one of tine most wonderful Bernstein has wrltterr. and it is superb ly, plsyed by Rejane in every detail.

De Max, who first was to have played the part of the finally preferred the comparatively minor role of the Jesuit, who has a chance in the last act for quiet, sustained acting. Ot all the cast perhaps Signoret, who acts the Jew, alone rails, iie aoesn seem to grasp the bigness of the character, as conceived by Bernstein. The rest of the roles are more than capably filled, Raymond Lauxerte being excel lent in me pan ol iu yuuua, The settings of three acts are the marvels of Paris. The first scene represents the entrance to the Club Rue Royale. and Is perfectly copied from the real room in every detail, to the design of the carpet.

The footman in this act is a real footman from the real The second act occurs in an exquisitely designed salon, and the third in a library. Naturally Rejane has scant opportunity to wear gowns for which she is famous, but the few minutes in which she appears in the last act she is a beautiful vision I in black cape lined with gray. 'Her hair, grayish white, she wears combed plain and tightly back from a part in the middle. The papers in the morning will express widely diverse opinions. Some find the new nlay diffuse and tiresome.

and others praise it. However, it is likely that the amount of discussion it will raise will carry It to success. DROPS SUIT AGAINST SIRE. Mrs. De MlHe Withdraws Action Over Production of a Play.

Mrs. De Mllle. the. play agent, was allowed yesterday by Supreme Court Justice Blschoff to discontinue the suit brought by her for a dissolution of partnership with Leander Sire and for an accounting. Sire opposed the application.

FISHKILL. LANDING. N. Oct. 13.

Harry K. Thaw has again been summoned to Pittsburg In the bankruptcy proceedings pending In that city. An order from the Federal-court of Pittsburg was served on the authorities of the Matteawan Asylum last night commanding them to produce Thaw in Pittsburg. The order is similar to that served upon Sheriff Lane of Westchester County. When Sheriff Lane was called to answer for contempt before Judge Archbold in Scranton he was excused because the habeas corpus proceedings before Justice Mills were recognized as taking precedence.

Judi Archbold held, however, that the Jurisdf'-ctow of the United States courts over THa.w could be exercised as soon as the habeas corpus matter was disposed of. 1 The authorities of the asylum say they will net obey the order to produce Thaw lu Pittsburg.

Miss Deyo had reached that portion of the dance where she produces the head of John the Baptist, when Director Lang sprang from his seat and hurried to the stage door. It was locked.

NORWICH. Conn, Oct. la. Daniel Colt Oilman of Baltimore, formerly Preaident of the Johns Hopkins University, died here suddenly this afternoon from heart He had gone to his room to prepare for a drive after dinner, where he was found lifeless on the floor by his wife. He arrived here yesterday for a visit with his sisters.

1 Dr. Oilman arrived in New Tork last Thursday after a European trip of sev-erai montha. He was expected here the day previous to attend a meeting of the Peabody Education rind, of which he was a Trustee. It was hoped that he might arrive in time to participate in tha deliberations which bad to do with the final distribution of the fund, but a wireless received from him while at sea announced that his ship was behind her schedule. Dr.

Oilman was born in.Norwich, July 1831, and was a descendant of Councilor John Oilman of Exeter. N. who came to America in MIS from Norfolk, England. He prepared for college In Ne.v York and was graduated from Yale In tno class of '52. The first few years of hla life after his graduation were spent In study and observation abroad.

During this period he was attached to the United States Legation in St. Petersburg, also a student in Berlin, and a Commissioner to the French Exhibition of 18T3. Upon his return to America he held various posts in Yale from librarian to professor of physical and political geography. He was also at different times Secretary of the Sheffield School and City Superintendent of the Schools of New Haven. In 1872 he became President of the University of California, which post had been to him in 1S70.

Six weeks after the trustees had received from the executors of the will of Johns Hopkins of Baltimore the half of the S7.UiO.ouo which under the terms of the will was to be used In founding a university. Dr. Oilman left the University, of Calfomia and began his duties as President of a unverslty whose practical founder he became, and which at that time existed principally upon paper. Thls was on the first of May, 1875. Dr.

Oilman spent that Summer abroad visiting Institutions. A year in addition was taken to develop plana, it having been rovided by the will of Johns Hopkins hat the income of half of the $7,000,000 was to be spent In the establishing of a hospital and the income of the other half should erect the buildings of the university. At that time the S7.00O.0uo gift was the largeat that bad been made to education. In the beginning Dr. Gllman availed himself of the sen-Ices from time to time of men of note, as, for instance, when Prof.

Huxley at thst time under a cloud with religious people made an opening address, but it was felt In the main that the Institution required young men and new departures. These new men were selected with such Judgment that many of thm subsequently had a vogue In their own departments that became more than National. From Remsen to Osier, and back again to Oeorge Williams, this policy had its' results. Johns Hopkins has sent out a large company of professors, investigators and But as the institution grew steadily the six professors did -not long company. Shortly the language and literature of nearly every country in modern Europe were taught in Johns Hopkins.

Baltimore became the centre of Semitic philology, and students of Assyrian, Babylonian, and Egyptian language, literature, and antiquities found facilities there. In 1880 Dr. Gllman was called upon to aid In the organisation and founding of an allied institution provided for In the will of the old Quaker merchant who had divided his fortune between toe two projects. The Johns Hopkins Hospital was organised and Dr. Gllman became its director.

Durlnar the course of his career In Bal llmore Dr. Oilman took an active part in the affairs of the city and of the State. For many years he was President of the Baltimore Charity Organisation Society. He was President also of the Munic-inal Art Society of Baltimore. He once refused an offer made to him by the Board of Education of this city to become Superintendent of the schools of New York City.

In the National field he turned his knowledge of TolitIcal geography upon Venesuelan affairs when he was a member of the Venesuelan Commission through the appointment of President Cleveland. He declined to serve upon a commission to investigate the conduct of the Spanish war. Dr. Oilman was married In 1861 to Mary Ketchara. who died In 1S9.

He married In 1877 Elisabeth wight, daughter of John Woolsey. Joseph A. Scranton. Joseph A. Scranton," ex-Congressman and owner of The Scranton Dally Republican, died In Scranton, on Monday, after a long illftess.

He was a member of the family for which the city was named. For the last thirty years Mr. Scranton had been a dominant figure in political circles "of Pennsylvania. He was born in Madison. July 26.

1S.TS. He secured an academic education in Pennsylvania. From 1WK to 1866 he was Collector of Internal Revenue and was Postmaster of Scranton for seven years. He founded The Daily Republican in 1867. He was elected to Congress in 1880 and re-elected four times.
