If embodied In the law, would be of benefit to those obliged to travel In the steersge. Mr.

Behar ws. accompanied by his daughter, his son-in-law, David Vsron, Professor of Architecture In Syracuse University, and their two children. They sailed from here. on July 2 In the steerage of the French liner Lorraine. While Mr.

Behar had much to condemn In the steerage, he bad also much to praise, and he spoke highly of the Improvements made since his first experimental voyage as a steerage passenger. One suggestion that I think would aid in Americanising incoming steerage passengers." he said. is the establishment on board of libraries so that the intended citisen could learn of the country and Its laws. Many are entirely Ignorant of the country to which they are coming. With libraries they could, become aoquainted oa the way across." FROM ST.

Mill Another specimen of the true-hearts- a re-more-than-coronets type of musical comedy made Its appearance on Broadway Is st its war eastward from La Salle Theatre In Chicago, where, tin der the title of The Girl Question." it Is said to have had a run of nearly 400 Sights. Fortunately for the authors. The Girl Question la one of those elusive titles which mar mean anything. At any rate. It commits them to nothing.

The true heart Idea, however. Is rather overworked for an audience that expects girls and songs and glittering gauds. Perhaps the La Salle patrons like the Idea of getting the extra bit of sentiment without extra charge. Broadway how ever, does not exactly go to the theatre on the bargain-hunting principle. Consequently when Broadway finds Its current of song and dance interrupted for the eake of a slang waiter's heart break, or In order to allow the true-hearted wait-resa to lift the mortgage on th old place.

It laughs the sort of a laugh that has a grating, raucous 'sound. One has rather ceased to look for much consistency In entertainments of this kind. The best that can be asked In most cases Is catchy music, good-looking girls, and an 'occasional joke that Is able to stand on its own legs rather thsa demand respect due to a crippled veteran. But The Girl In whatever the answer otherwise, fails to meet most Of these simple requirements, though once In a while there Is a line to evoke a smile. Tea or coffee? asks the waitress In the familiar manner.

Which do you think It Is? caustically demands the restaurant patron. How many women in America nave you made love to!" is sentimental foreigner at I don't know is the i the population is aemanaea oi a one pointy answer. Wbat'a But these sallies ars more or less burled under the ruins of some dosens of antique Jests that by rights should have been doing honest service further up the street, now that the minstrels have come to town. One Jest about the worst way was, in fact, so obviously a favorite of the authors that it was lugged in a second time in slightly modified form after the audience had generously treated It as an old friend on Its first sppearance. Of the cast.

Miss Georgia Drew Men-drum, in a misplaced bit of sentimentality, played with genuine feeling, and was easy and natural throughout, while Carl H. George, with a real German dialect, brought some humor to a part that had little of that quality in Itself. Junle McCree was entirely at home In his familiar slangy fashion. Helen Rovton. riven plenty of -opportunities, with at least one curtain number that ought properly to have gone to another, worked too hard and with too much self-consciousness to be st all effective.

The bright particular spot in the performance was provided by that very dainty little feminine person. Miss Isabells D'Armond, who has grace and charm, sings rettlly, dances beautifully, and is de-ightfully buoyant and rollicking. EVA TANGUAY AS SALOME. Costume Abbreviated, but Alhambra Audience Doean't Enthuse Over cnce. Eva Tanguay made her first appearanoo in her own original vision of Salome yestsrdsy afternoon at the "Alhambra Theatre, wearing a costume of the most abbreviated type.

Her idea of the dance aa entirely different front anything yet seten. and had more of the elements of a one-set drama. At ths opening of the act fialome appeared, rejoicing at her triumph. During the following dance a storm arose, and the head of the murdered Calnt appeared mysteriously on a pillar. Salome then pleaded hejr Innocence, laying the blame on her mother, and finally fell to the ground overcome.

Miss Tanguay performed with her sccustomed vim and vigor, but was not an expert In Orientalism. In fact, the audience refused to take th impersonation Seriously. ELSIE JANIS HOME. Actress Confera with George Ada Ovar Plaea Ha li Writing for Han ElaJe Janls, ths actress, arrived from Europe yesterday on the Holland-America liner Rotterdam. 'She spent several weeks in London, Paris, Berlin, and Rotterdam.
