In her work, of course, she Is expected to emphasize the dance as the feature, the thing most worth while; but it Is probable that the majority of those who attended last niKht's exhibition, at least, came away with the memory of the music crowding out both the supulchral tones of Mr. Duncan as he read, and the dancing of Miss Duncan. Mr.

Copeland played the Chopin music in masterly fashion. The objection which we have to Mr. Duncan's elocution Is that It reminds one of a mortuary chapel, rather than a dlonyslon. "It Pays to Advertise," will celebrate Its 250th performance at the George M. Cohan Theater this evening.

Charles Frohman and David Belasco request those who are to attend the opening performance of "A Celebrated Case," at- the Empire tonight, to be in their seats at 8:10, as the curtain must rise promptly at 8:16. The announcement was made yesterday that Klaw and Erlanger, in association with George C. Tyler, have arranged to present the Hol-brook Blinn Company in "Moloch," a new play in a prologue, three acts and an epilogue, by Beulah M.

The last half of the present week it will be shown at the Greeley Square, American, Lincoln, Bijou, Seventh Avenue, Fulton, Delancey and Shubert theaters. The picture Is the only one ever made of Jess Wiliard, and shows the big fellow as the hero In a playlet, which gives him an opportunity to appear in action in an actual bout, and also In training subsidiary role, the memory of his work la likely to stick longest In the mind. The lines of the part are extremely clever. Indeed, clever Aroused over the proposal of the Board of Estimate to levy a local assessment on property owners In tbe vicinity of Kings Highway, to meet the expenses to be Incurred In widening that thoroughfare, It was decided at a mass meeting of property owners In the section, held last night, under the auspices of the Kings Highway Improvement Association, to appeal to the City Plan Committee of the Board of Estimate, in a public hearing on the matter, to be held on Friday, asking that the costs for the improvement be borne by the entire city.

President William H. Kowenhoven, in addressing the meeting, explained that since the project to widen Kings Highway was already firmly established inasmuch as the city had already vested title, he urged that vigorous protests be made. Commissioner E. W. Voorhies declared that he has always been opposed to the widening of Kings Highway and that tbe direct interests of the property owners In the section should have been consulted In tbe matter.

George O. Sayres was of the opinion that since Avenue is a parkway 100 feet wide and Is tbe adjoining street and parallel with Kings Highway, it would be a waste of money to widen Kings Highway. It is expected that a large gathering of property owners In the vicinity of Kings Highway will be present at the public hearing. IN GERMAN CIRCLES ness Is the outstanding feature of the play. M.

It is of Philadelphia pressed brick, with brownstone trim, having a frontage of 86 feet and a depth of 161. It will contain 136 rooms and its equipment will be of the most modern style. The State Board of Charities has highly complimented the architect, Frank J. Helmle, on the perfection of his plans. The total cost, Including furnishings, will be $160,000, very little of which has as yet been raised.

The completion of the building without debt is now the hospital's most urgent need. The work of construction is being done by the Kennedy Construction Company. a theater party last night.

The members of Schiller Lodge No. 304, F. and A.

visited the Bushwick Theater Monday night and A constitution adopted, officers elected, four committees appointed, an Important question of club policy determined and one resolution working toward the betterment of Brooklyn adopted, was tbe business completed at the first meeting of tbe long awaited Brooklyn Civic Club held last night at the clubhouse, 127 Hemsen street. After an excellent dinner In tbe club restaurant, the members of the Brooklyn League and the City Club of Brooklyn mot jointly to effect the formal organization of the new association. With the adoption of the constitution and the unanimous election of the slate of officers proposed by the joint nominating committee, the two older organizations went out of existence. Then Magistrate Howard P. president of the City Club, and Former Senator Charles H.

Fuller, president of the Brooklyn League, left their places at the officers' table, and the new head of the Civic Club, Jacob C. Klinck, was escorted to the chair. Almost before his hand had warmed the gavel he was confronted with an Important question of policy. William Llebermann, In order to place the new club on record before the bill should coma to the Governor for signature, offered a resolution to. approve the Marginal Railroad bill and to appoint a committee to wait on the Mayor and Governor and axpress the club's attitude In the matter.

Immediate objection was made that by adopting the resolution the club would establish the precedent of discussing and acting upon questions introduced from the floor, thereby laying Itself open to the danger of hasty and ill considered action. Around this point the discussion was warm. Mr. Liebermann disclaimed any wish to establish a precedent, and said that be offered tbe resolution at this time only because by the time any committee could act and the club could meet again, tbe Governor will have signed or vetoed the bill and the Civic Club will be powerloss to influence him one way or the other. Magistrate Nash replied that whether Mr.

Liebermann wished it or not, the adoption of his resolution would make the establishment of a dangerous precedent, and mean the introduction of a practice which had rendered many civic bodies Ineffectual. Andrew Colvin insisted that the necessity of referring everything to a committee would so retard the working of the club that progress would be slowed to a snail's pace. "The trouble with the old Brooklyn League was that free discussion was held up by the necessity of having everything reported out by a commit-toe before it could be discussed. Free discussion and quick action are what we must have if we are to make this new organization effective," he said. Pass Resolutions Favoring; Marginal Railroad BiU.

After a spirited debate in which nearly everybody present took part, President Klinck anally settled the point by putting It to a vote, and it was shown that free discussion without the interference of a committee was generally favored. Mr. Llebermann's resolution was adopted. The tension of the debate was relieved when Frederick Boyd Stevenson, in answer to a request for a speech, that he had feared for a moment that the new club had, "like a certain lady of the headlines, got its Oliver twisted." The chair was empowered to appoint several committees to serve until the by-laws should be formulated and the details of the organization completed. Upon the by-laws committee were appointed Magistrate Howard P.

Nash, ex-Senator Charles H. Fuller, Edward W. Wilson, Thomas J. Riley and Clarence J. Smith.

Ralph Jonas was appointed chairman of the membership comm)ttee to begin a campaign for new members at once. A special Constitutional Convention committee was placed in charge of Senator Fuller; and the temporary house committee comprises John F. Brush and Louts H. Pink. The last committee was also empowered -to attend to the Incorporation of the new club.

The date of the next meeting was announced as Wednesday, April 14. The officers elected are: President, Jacob Ci. Klinck; first vice president, Frank C. Munson; second vice president, Charles Jonos Feabody; treasurer, Charles C. Putnam.
