New Castle, Pa., Feb. 16.—Nature in a rage without, sending snow whirling against the window panes. Forty people leaning anxiously forward, minds dismayed and foreboding or filled with desire for vengeance. Miss Jennie Davis, on the stand in Alderman Mantz's court, swore that she had been set upon and dangerously beaten by Mrs. Emily Young, wife of the man with whom Miss Davis had been going to picture shows and having a good time generally. Jennie said they were all at church that peaceful Sunday. After the services, as the congregation filed out, she was directly ahead of Mrs. Young without knowing it. Suddenly Mrs. Young seized her by the fur collar she was wearing and struck at her with a knife. At least that is what Jennie testified. She jerked away and was saved, but so outraged and insulted that she caused the arrest Mrs. Young, and the hearing resulted. Convinced Court y convinced the court that assault and battery no surety of the peacer. And she had the assistance of Attorney Edwin K. Logan who handled the witnesses for the prosecution without gloves. Mrs. Young's story was a little different from Jennie's. When she went to church she sat beside Miss Davis. Soon her husband came meandering out of an entry room toward the front of the church and she distinctly saw Jennie give by a high sign, calling his attention to wife sitting behind Jennie, his inaudible, his ebony pearl. He responded with a signal to indicate that he had flamped" the lady he once promised to love, cherish and protect, but who is now living apart from him. No wonder such conduct in the holy edifice somewhat illustrated Mrs. Young, and she was scarcely able to keep her mind on the service. As she emerged from the building behind Jennie, she put forth her hand to detain her rival. "Don't you all know that man's my husband you're going with?" she asked plainly. Whereat Jennie answered in language not becoming to the time or the place. Then Mrs. Young's sister approached and drew Mrs. Young away and the affair was all over. That was the defendant's story. Her sister corroborated her, and other witnesses who were near enough to see and hear, testified that there had been no attempt at stabbing—no fracas at all, knife thrust or threats. In all seventeen ladies and gentlemen of the Race told their version of the affair and the preponderance of the testimony was favorable to Mrs. Young. The fact, together with the impassioned plea put up by her attorney, freed her from the horror of a prison sojourn. Hardly skipped, the alderman dis- bo Ey ee eos EN UN Ce ee ee ee Ee RR SE ety ES TG EPENDER ee VE Es Se Bee De UAT GHTOA, | ADBFENDER oes ie oe a . pe Ney ts a ar pisces . fel NS, SA ees eo Ro Le . ares A eae ed Oe En es rae PENG (oe Tor REO Ne oars cee gSeeeameah, Y Ja BRERaS : eae cymes z : fey oF : & : Rs ees | Ne Soe fe ss eee ee F ae aa m4 a Ra a £ cme = i ce Mege oy — ae ene lg op a ey ee A mi Ff A ot ‘ A ‘S es ae 5 . : yin oe a Bet ee “ee ee 5] Ea pe me <i Co mS gtk ate Fi E ves my a Be Tn Pe ae ae EI OE ca AEE ae EB EA ge a oo te Se eR re + AMAT thy step aby ee AM pnts.

Feb. 16. — College Boy Tom Johnson—that's all. Nobody wore have believe it, but until two weeks ago, he hit no game, hit no game in his mit. Then came Hall along, batting in place of Williams, and he singled over third, and Tom's all, for Tom Robinson up. But that was all, for Tom Robinson up. But that was expected, and he quit with a one-hit game to his credit. Redding started the game, but failed to get into the box Williams went in for him in the second innning after Grant and DeMoss rambled. All this happened Tuesday, Feb. 6. The Chicago boys played a fine defensive game behind Johnson, who was invading the first lining when Charleston was passed. He stole second and went to third on Pete Hill's sacrifice fly, Lloyd sent a long fly to Thomas and Charleston. The second lining, Rube's men chanced the game, in the second inning. Deloss and Grant were walked, and Dick Redding, sometimes a manumball was yanked, and John Willett, a New York boy, went to the mount. Petway forced Grant at third. Tom Johnson walked and the bases were loaded. The richest people of the country were in the boxes and the excitement grew to the max. Men worth millions and millions of dollars, he went out on a pop fly and all held their bases. Hill, the heavy hitting fielder of the Chicago boys, waded into one box, slid into the swinging and sent left for two bags, the gampered home. This ended the scoring as far as the winners were concerned. Johnson pitched all right Tall Hall, the sound for a base hit, and sent Handy Base reached first on a pass, went to second ALABAMA Enstley, Ala. Feb. 16—Rev. L. W. Mitchell of the Metropolitan G. M.

From纷繁ly published reports the following may be depended upon as being nearly_correct, though in some instances additional profits have been earned since these figures were given out. *Million Dollar Mystery* (2000) paid the producer over 300 per cent; "Quo Vadis" had a profit of $500,000; "The Spoilers" has paid 1000 per cent and is still paying; "Civilization" has already paid 400 per cent, and "Nepal: The Birth of a Nation" has paid 3000 per cent, and is playing in all parts of the world and will earn no doubt another 1000 per cent. "Intolerance," produced by Samantha, has been before the public's attention in September. "A Race" is now selling stock in Chicago and all over the country. Shares are going very fast, and soon they will be entirely gone and your chance to make a lot of money gone, unless you use the Race Photoyle Corporation, Suite 416, 29 La Salle street, Chicago, IL. A PRAYER The following few lines are the second of the poems written by the late George Russell. These poems are of such an unusual character that they are bound to attract much attention; the one published in the issue last week caused much comment. Teach us, Heavenly Father, how to live. That we may others pleasure give. Grant us knowledge, we besech. That we may some poor mortal teach. Make our nature as the dove's. Fill us with love, we love. Let not our pride lead us so high. That we may pass some mortal by. Make life bright at the fragrant flower, Fill us with its soothing power. Load us, Lord, and be our guide. As through this wicked world we glide. And when we have reached the goal, Receive the Lord, Lord, our humble soul. If thatasks they've done quite well. Place them where the good souls dwell. BREAKS UP THE SHOW Twenty-Fifth Infantry Boys Steel Girls in Hen Wise's Company. Schofeld Barracke H., Jan. 31.—When the regiment came to these barracks in 1913 Hen Wise had a show and was making a big hit all over Hawaii, but the members of the Twenty-fifth flirted with the girls and as a consequence the show was broken up. Hen Wise went to the States and got to team up with the girls to collection of the prettiest brownskin girls he could get. They, too, were captivated by the boys in khaki, and Prof. Wise is not figuring out how he can get a company together that will be immune to the soldiers' uniforms. There are only three members left in his company. 'CRISIS' AT THE Y. W. C. A. St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 16.—Moving pictures of Winston Churchill's 'Crisis' were shown at a benefit entertainment a night before a career and appreciative audience. The pictures were under the auspices of the educational section and were of particular interest to St. Louisiana because so many of the scenes of the "Crisis" were laid in this city. Lulu Coates and Her Crackerjacks, the first Race act to show at the new $600,000 Rialto theater, is being headlined at that house, and is creating a sensation at every performance. "Miss Coates has accepted contracts for .32 consecutive weeks on the 'big' time. New costumes have been finished for the entire company and it presents a handsome appearance from the front."
