1y was Interested in seeing that Gor-
don Campbell. his client in litigation
in the Montana courts, got a. “square
deal" from the federal government
in regard to his land interests.
The Commissioner added that the
Senator had talked to him only as
any other member of the Senate or
House might have done for a con-
stituent. Asked directly whether Mr.
Wheeler had f'interested himself" in
any controversy before the depart-
mentment, he replied that he did not
recall “any controversy that Senat-
or W‘heelcr had been interested in."
Asked to describe his talk with
~Wheeler. Commissioner Spry said:—
"I think it was in tho‘spring of
1923. He and Mr. Booth came to my
ofilce. After some pleasantry was ex-
changed I tendered the services of
the department to Senator Wheeler.
as I do to other Senators.
“Mr. Booth made the remark that
one case. The Senator replied his in-r
terest was only to see that Gordon
Campbell got. proper treatment and
a. square deal. I asured him that he
would get that."
Duse
The passing of Eleanor: Duse
comes as a great shock to those
who realize that with this death
another inspiring artist has entered
the beyond, comments ‘the Bridge-
port Telegram. Death is not strange,
and vet it is always new. and so
even thbsc followers of the drama
who were not able to see her on
this. hcr last tour. feel a distinct
loss at the news that her career
had ended in Pittsburgh. And yet
there was something appropriate.
something satisfying. in the knowl-
edge that even at sixty-five years of
in age such a finished actress could
11m: to theatre. greater crowd-
than they had known before. and
impress those crowds as they had
seldom if ever been impressed.
Critics unhesitatingly classed her
as one of the few great emotional
spirits of the past. In a. class with
Bernhardt. Reine, Irving. Booth
and others whose ettorts are writ
large in human memory. she gave
all that she had to the parts which
she was called upon to interpret. It
is said that her first stage work was
attempted at the age of three. but.
however. this may be, t is certain
that in’later life especially. she was
wholeheartedly of, for and by. the
theatre.
Her work there was her supreme .
accomplishment, and it would never
have seemed right that a life which
could be of such value and of such
uplifting influence to mankind
was able to spend it. Her magnet-
ism. her spirit .en Indennable some-
thing which was only puzzling to
those who would solvee it, swayed
audiences even as her voice thrilled
them. with a. bewildering power.
One can Well agreewith the pro-
nouncement of Mrs. Fiske when she
said the other day. "One of the
noblest artists of all time has gone
from us. Her beautiful presence
has vanished from the theatre but
her divine spirit lives imperishable
there.” .
