VOL. XXI. SNOW IS SNOWED UNDER Abortive Effort to Besmirch Character of Noted Minister Aborts Again. Dr. Bradley Makes Statement Defining His Position. Dr. H. S. Bradley, pastor of Trinity church of Atlanta, was exonerated of the charge of heresy preferred against him before the North Georgia Methodist Conference in session at Newnan. The report of the investigating committee was as follows: "We, the committee in the case of Rev. H. S. Bradley, charged with disseminating doctrines contrary to the doctrines of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, after a careful consideration, and no trial necessary." When this announcement was made it was loudly cheered by the friends of Dr. Bradley. This is the second time Dr. Bradley has been exonerated of this ridiculous charge by a committee of his brothers. After the committee had reported Dr. Bradley asked permission to make a statement to the conference. Among other things, he said: "When I first came up before you here several days ago, I refused to discuss with' you the merits of my position, as I wished the matter to be gone into fully if you so desired and did not want to throw any influence on the subject one way or the other, but simply desired that it be given a chance to come up on its merits. "Now, however, that the matter has been sottiled, I feel that with your permission, I would like to make a few remarks regarding the attitude I occupy. I came into the church when quite a child. "I am free to confess that the real reason why I entered the Methodist church was because 'the ones I loved were in it and because my associations drew me to the church. Had my associations been otherwise, I would just as likely have been a Presbyterian, Baptist or a member of any other denomination as to have been a Methodist. "The true state of affairs was that I came into the church as a child won to it by the affection I had for those who were already in it. "But during the last ten years I have reached a period where you might say I could conscientiously sift matters and see where I stood and why I really was a Methodist. "I love my church and like it indeed better than any other church in the world. I also like the policy of the church, though I reserve the right to differ with that policy at the proper time and in the proper way. "But it is no secret that there are expressions in our articles of faith which have a Calvinistic flavor in their interpretation of certain doctrines. To this Calvinistic flavor I cannot subscribe. "I like the Methodist church because the rights of any member, are guaranteed to him. He is not required to believe anything in the articles of faith that are not strongly backed up by Biblical teachings." "In this way, every man, so to speak, stands in his own shoes. The church does not endeavor to coerce his will. "The fact that the Methodist church does not tolerate free htught is, above all things else, what draws me to it. "This is a progressive age, and I want to see the church advance and broaden with the advancing and broadening age of the world. If the church does not tolerate free thought progress of the age, there is only a question of time when it will go to pieces. "My position in brief is as follows: There has never been a moment since I have been in the church that I have not had offers which would have paid me more money than the work I have tried to do for the Methodist church and since I have been drawing money from her treasury. "I am frank to confess to you that I belong to a school of thought that is known as theistic evolution. Through this thought we teach that God is working in and through us and all things higher and higher up to the perfection of His plans. This, to my mind, is better than the idea that God made all things at once and then left things alone." BAPTISTS IN SESSION Georgia Convention Called to Order in Macon—Ex-Governor Northern Is Again Made President. When ex Governor Northen called the Georgia Baptist convention to order Thursday morning in the First Baptist church at Macon, the large auditorium of that edifice was filled with delegates from every section of the state—over one thousand being present. The session opened with devotional exercises, led by Rev. Dr. L. M. Brittain of Atlanta, after which the regular order of business was taken up. The election of officers for the coming year was attended to as soon as the enrollment, of delegates had been finished, and it resulted in ex-Governor W. J. Northeen being reelected president without opposition. The following other officers were elected: B. D. Ragsdale, secretary; C. B. Chamblee, assistant secretary, and C. B. Willingham, J. C. Soloman, J. S. Calloway and G. B. Campbell, vice presidents. In an eloquent address Frank A. Mallory, of Macon, welcomed the delegates to Macon, and this was responded to by Dr. W. A. Smith of Columbus. The balance of the morning session was devoted to hearing reports from various committees and in the recognition of pastors who had come into the state since the last convention. Dr. S. Y. Jamison of Atlanta read the annual report of the state board of missions. Many interesting facts and statistics were presented. The report showed that for home missions $24,000 had been given. To foreign missions $51,362 was contributed, and for state missions, $21,000. The contributions represent a total of $107,000, against $89,000 of last year. Dr. Jamison spoke eloquently of the mission work now being done by the denomination in Cuba, in the slums of the great American cities and in the factory communities. It developed, too, in the course of his statement that the remote mountain districts of Georgia are badly need of mission work. A feature of the day's session was the address by Dr. W. O. Carver of the Baptist theological seminary of Louisville, Ky. Dr. Carver was interesting throughout his talk, as he described what had been done by his institution, and he urged that more attention be paid to this kind of work. The afternoon session was devoted to unfinished business and to hearing the verbal reports of the Baptist schools and colleges not under the commission. The report of the committee on the work of the Sunday school board was also heard. COST OF THE INAUGURATION. Figures Just Given Out 'Show That $145,491 Was Expended. To inaugurate Theodore Roosevelt president of the United States last March cost $145,491, a greater sum than was ever spent for any previous inauguration. The details of this cost were made public Thursday in a report by General John M. Wilson, the chairman of the inaugural committee. Notwithstanding the large expense the committee has turned over a balance of $4,730. FOR ROLLING CIGARETTE. Youth at Lincoln, Nebraska, Pays Fine of Fifty Dollars. Patrick Raymond, aged 18, was arrested in Lincoln, Neb., while lighting a cigarette which he had just rolled for his own use in the presence of a city detective. He was fined $50 and costs. This is the lightest penalty prescribed by the law for "manufacturing" cigarettes. Germans Arrive at Pensacola. The German imperial commission, which is investigating conditions in the south, arrived in Pensacola, Fla. Thursday. They were entertained at Oscoola Club, and taken for a ride through the harbor. They expressed themselves as pleased with the gifts Assaulted by 'Ex-Congressman -Din- more and Jack, Walker.' Charles Jacobson, private secretary to Governor Davis, has given out a statement at Little Rock to the effect that Governor Davis had wired him from Fayetteville, stating that former Congressman Hugh Dinsmore and Jack Walker assaulted him in his room at a hotel with drawn revolvers and that he (the governor) was struck over the head with a revolver. The governor, in turn, according to the statement, struck Dinsmore over the head with a large cane. QUEER INSURANCE DEAL From Treasury Vault of New York Life $700,000 of Stock Was Surreptitiously Removed. One of the most interesting features of the life insurance investigation at New York developed only a few minutes before adjournment of the Armstrong committee Monday when Theodore F. Banta, cashier of the New York Life Insurance company, testified that about the beginning of 1901 Edward D. Randolph, treasurer of the company, opened the vaults of the company, removed New York city stock valued at $700,000, and put a check of the Central National Bank for $700,000 in its place. Mr. Banta said he helped to open the vaults at the order of Mr. Randolph and that he supposed Mr. Randolph acted for the finance committee. The stock was kept out for a few days and was then returned and the check withdrawn. The transaction was not recorded on the books of the company, so far as Mr. Banta knew. The effect of the operation would be that any one having that stock would have $700,000 worth of non taxable property at the end of the year. Mr. Banta did not know who received the stock. George S.W. Perkins, vice president of the New York Life Insurance company and member of the firm of J. P. Morgan & Co., bankers, was also a witness during the day and described to the committee the transaction which resulted in his receipt of $40.138 from Kidder, Peabody & Co., of Boston, as half the profits of the sale of $2,000,000 worth of bonds of the Mexican Central Railroad company. Milton M. Mattison, a bookkeeper of the New York Life Insurance company, had previously testified that $330,000 of the life insurance company's money was used'in the transaction and that Mr. Perkins got the profit. Mr. Perkins, in his statement, Monday, said that he went into the transaction for the Nylie fund, which is owned by the agents of the New York Life Insurance company, and that he invested the profits for that fund. The life insurance company, he said, profiled to the extent of 5 per cent interest on the loan of $930,000. He stated that the company had no right to the $40,193 profits. Mr. Perkins said also that J. P. Morgan & Co. had taken up notes of Andrew Hamilton and E. E. McCall, formerly justice of the New York state supreme court, amounting to $66,310 at the request of President John A. McCall of the New York Life Insurance company, and that the amount with interest was paid, to Andrew Hamilton by the New York Life Insurance company for the proceeds of a syndicate in United States Steel Corporation stock. President John A. McCall was called and told the committee that he had told the Central National Bank and E. E. McCall that Hamilton was good for $50,000 and they had then taken Hamilton's notes. Much evidence was given both by Mr. Perkins and President McCall about the New York Security and Trust company's participation in the United States Steel Corporation syndicate to the extent of $3,250,000, having the deposits of the New York Life Insurance company for about that amount, "I never gave United States Senator Platt a dollar in my life for the New York Life Insurance company," declared Mr. McCall in reply to a question. Mr. McCall did not know of any payment by the New York Life to any state campaign fund. Mr. McCall said one of Hamilton's notes may have been a contribution. His brother, E. E. McCall, he said, was elected supreme court justice in 1902, but the New York Life never contributed to his campaign expenses. "Who have solicited campaign contributions from you?" "I had rather not tell. I have been solicited very much, but not by members, of the legislature nor state officials." Alabama Woman's Clubs Don't Like Negro Delegates. The Alabama Federation of Women's Clubs, in session at Birmingham, voted down a resolution providing for joining the general federation of women's clubs. The admission of colored delegates at the Milwaukee meeting of the general federation figured prominently in the discussions. There seemed to be a sentiment favoring the formation of a gulf states federation. BREAK BY CONVICTS Killed Two Prison Officials and Wounded Warden. Desperate Fusillade Between Escapes and Their Pursuers—Recapture Effected After Two of the Convicts Were Wounded. In a desperate attempt to escape from the state penitentiary at Jefferson City, Mo., Friday afternoon, five convicts fought for freedom with weapons and nitroglycerine at the prison gate, killing two prison officers and wounding Deputy Warden See, and four men made a dash through the streets of Jefferson City under fire, only to be captured after two of the escaped men had been wounded. Flye prisoners, taking advantage of the absence of Warden Hall and six guards, who left Friday morning with seventy-one federal prisoners for Fort Leavenworth, Kans., attempted to escape, but only four left the prison after wrecking the gate. Convicts Harry Vaughan, Charles Raymond, Hiram Blake, George Ryan and Ell Zeligler, who were world close inside the prison gate, having secured pistols and a bottle of nitroglycerine, entered Deputy Warden R. E. See's office and shot him in the arm as he sat in a chair. He sank back helpless and the convicts rushed to the gate, where they met Gateman John Clay. Before Clay could raise his weapon he was shot dead. The convicts then rushed through the gate, dragging Clay's body with them. They slammed the gate shut and fastened it. Zeligler was left inside'. The convicts placed nitro-glycerine under the outside gate and blew an opening through the steel doors. The four men crawled through this rupture and dashed through a number of "trusty" convicts who were working in the street. Almost before the four escaped convicts had covered a block, prison officials were in pursuit, shooting as they ran. The chase kept on for a dozen blocks, the convicts outrunning their pursuers. Near the Missouri Pacific railway depot the convicts came up with a wagon driven by Orville Lane. Jumping into this wagon the desperadoes seized Lane and used him as a shield from the bullets of their pursuers. One convict lashed the horse into a run, and escape seemed sure, when suddenly a squad of city policemen and armed citizens appeared and stopped the horse. Shielding themselves as well as possible behind the slides of the vehicle, the four convicts fough the policemen. Volley after volley was fired in the street by both sides to the conflict. The policemen sheltered themselves behind trees, splintered the wagon, finally putting a bullet through Vaughan and Blake, the latter falling to the ground probably fatally hurt. Then the convicts surrendered. Lane and his horse and Convicts Ryan and Raymond were uninjured. The convicts were immediately taken back to the penitentiary. NEW RATE BILL DRAWN. Senator Foraker Thinks He Has the Right Remedy. Senator Foraker of Ohio Friday presented to the senate-committee on in-Wednesday by a committee representing the Diamond Workers' Protective Union of America and the Diamond Manufacturers' Association. The employees in New York city are less than forty. The question of wages for the coming year is also being considered. The men now average, it is said, more than $40 weekly. Ex-Congressman's Wife, Killed and Several Others Badly Hurt Mrs. Francisce Burton Harrison, the wife of ex-Congressman Harrison, was instantly killed in an automobile accident in Long Island City. The machine became uncontrollable on a steep hill, plunged to, the side of the road and turned over. Mrs. Harrison's neck was broken. Lawrence I. Scott and wife of San Francisco were injured and Charles F. Crocker, brother of Mrs. Harrison, and the chaunters was slightly hurt. WADSWORTH SUSPENDED Methodist Conference Committee Finds Minister, Guilty—Facts In His Favor, Suppressed. Dr. W. W. Wadsworth, pastor of the Hartwell church, charged with immoral conduct, was declared guilty of imprudence; by the committee appointed at the North Georgia Methodist Conference to investigate his case, and his suspension for one year was recommended to the conference. In a statement that is replete with cutting references to the conference, Dr. Wadsworth appeals his case to the public. His statement, which he gave to the Atlanta Constitution, refers to "the foreordained degree of a reeling and corrupt ecclesiastical oligarchy." Regarding the woman who testified against him, he makes a comparison with the act of Potiphar's wife, and declares that her husband had found her crying "from plaque" after he had resisted her. Regarding Bishop W. W. Dunean he says: "Irritable and insulting, and autocratic in manner, and manifestly bordering on imbecility." The North Georgia Conference, declares Dr. Wadsworth, "contains a considerable band of whisperers and assassins of character; of self-seeking ecclesiastical political tricksters." The good men of that body, he declared, are "unconscious slaves, driven by the whips of itinerant taskmasters." The statement of Dr. Wadsworth, in part is as follows: "Since the flaming headlines of last Wednesday announced the arrest of my character, through the illegal procedure of my presiding elder, and the appointment of a second committee of investigation—without precedent in such cases in the thirty-four years of my connection with the conference—I have felt that the matter was no longer mine, but belonged to the public. "When the public clearly understands this case, it cannot avoid seeing that the climax which was reached in my suspension was a species of persecution which would do credit to the days of the Spanish inquisition. "On March 11, last, in my regular round of pastoral work, I visited an unattractive and unrefined woman for THE FIRST time in the little city of Hartwell. As a specimen of what she is she says in her accusations that I made 'commentary' remarks about her ring. She tried to put herself in a sentimental way, upon me; and I repulsed her kindly, and immediately left the house. Her husband found her crying over what had happened—partly, I suppose, from plque and partly from shame. She had to explain, and, in a modified way, played the act of Potiphar's wife, and told a story which grew as the weeks went on, but never reached what ought to have been-called a case of real immorality. I told her husband the next morning practically what had taken, place, and in the afternoon his presence put the blame where it belonged—upon her. The little city of Hartwell was stirred to its depths and at least 95 per cent of the 300 resident membership of the Methodist church stood enthusiastically by their pastor. The community of men and women, so far as the truth of these charges was concerned, stood in almost as large a proportion. The large congregation of last Sunday passed unanimously the highly complimentary resolutions asking for my return. They brought for presentation to me at conference, not dreaming what was coming, a handsome gold watch—as a token of their confidence and love. "In the light of these facts, it is obliged to be clear, to every unprejudiced mind, that to arraign a man a second time of such a charge can be nothing short of pure persecution and the product of hidden hate." It is charged that the endorsement of Dr. Wadsworth by his church at Hartwell was not given consideration. A telegram was sent jointly to Bishop Duncan, Mr. J. W. Williams of Hartwell and Mr. A. A. McCurry, also of Hartwell, which, was said to have been withheld by Bishop Duncan. It is claimed that the committee investigating the charges against Dr. Wadsworth had no knowledge of the receipt of the telegram from Dr.Wadsworth's church members. GOMPERS-AGAIN-HONORED. Succeeds Himself as Head of American Federation of Labor. The silver anniversary convention of the American Federation of Labor adjourned at Pittsburg, Pa., Saturday, to meet next year in Minneapolis on a date not yet set. Samuel Gompers was re-elected president by practically a unanimous vote, only two ballots having been cast. M'CURDY RESH Such is Report Annot President of Mutual Life. PUBLISHED IN THE WORLD With Him Goes His Son Robert and a Son-in-Law Louis Theobald—Mr. Official Information aa. Yet. The New York World of Business published the statement that Elmer McCurdy, president of the Mutual Life Insurance company, has resigned the time when his resignation takes effect, depends only on the time required by the trustees to find his successor. Quickly following the retirement of President McCurdy, his son, Robert H. McCurdy, general manager of the Mutual, and his son-in-law, Louis A. Thebaud, the general agent for New York, have resigned. A tentative order to head the company was made to James B. Forgan, president of the First National Bank of Chicago, who once was an Bankable director. His bank is one of the leading financial institutions of the middle west. Mr. Forgan declined to accept the offer. No official information was obtainable at the Mutual Life Insurance company's office as to the report that Richard A. McCurdy, president of the company, had resigned. Unofficially, however, it was learned that the company's finance committee is believed to have, Mr. McCurdy's resignation under consideration. It was learned also that the connection of Lewis A. Thebaud, Mr. McCurdy's son-in-law, with the company is expected to cease about January 1. Dr. Walter B. Gillett, vice presi dent of the Mutual Life Insurance company, Monday night denied published reports that Richard A. McCurdy had resigned the presidency of the Mutual Life, and that Robert H. Mr. Curdy had retired from the general managership of the company. Dr. Gillett, however, said that Louis A. Theaud, son-in-law of Mr. MrCurdy, had rellinquished the position of the company's agent for New York. There is said Dr. Gillett, no truth in the report that the Mutual Life presidency has been offered to J. B. Forgus of Chicago. Frightful Accident Befalls Employees of Powder Works. An explosion in the mixing house and in one of the packing houses at the Keystone powder works at Emporium, Pa., Monday, destroyed the entire works, killing nine men and injuring several others. The dead are: James Boyce, John Butler, James Campbell, John Hamilton, Thomas Welsh, James Murphy, Frank Harrington, John Bossle and William Sprung. The body of Sprung was the only one of the dead recovered. The top of his head and one leg were broken off. Searching parties gathered up the other bodies in small pieces. No damage was done in the town. SOUTHERN BUY8.SHIP YARD. Depot and Warehouses. The Southern railway has made an offer acceptable to the bondholders committee for the Trigg ship yard property at Richmond, Va., embracing all of the real estate of the shipbuilding company except the dock. The offer, which has been virtually accepted, provides for the transfer of the lands of the Trigg ship, embracing about 30 acres. The intention of the railroad company is understood to be the erection of a large freight depot and several warehouses on the property. Nearly All Profits in One Transaction Went to Attorney. Most startling developments were brought out at Friday's session of the committee on insurance investigation in New York. Milton Madison, bookkeeper of the New York Life Insurance company, swore that in the case of the United States Steel syndicate, appeared in one unannounced to the New York Association of Steel Workers, which was instituted and was given the start of its work.

Church had cceasion to speak to a number of young men who compose one of the leading social clubs inthecity. The point of true manhood was emphasized and the young men urged to be- come good citizens by paying their tax. Rev. Cash needs to be commended for taking such an excellent opportunity in telling the young men of their duties and impressing upon them the importance of fullfiling the same. We had occasion to spend about twenty minutes at the West Side Pharmacy recently and were made to feel encourag- ed upon seeing the constant stream of customers coming in and making purchases.

Two months ago dates the advent of the Ludden & Bates Pisno Club in the city of Savannah and the country around. At that time we chose the Ludden & Bates Piano Club as our method of introduciog the New Scale $400 Ludden & Bates Pianc tothe public, Since its frst organization and a few people were permitted to know the merits of this elegant piano, it bas been almost impussible for us to’ supply the demand for it. Ludden & Bates Pianos have been sold over the entire South for the past 20 years, but never be- fore have we been ableto offer the public such value, such piano satisfaction, at a popular price and on such easy terms of payments. The New Seale $400 Lnddea & Bates Piano appeals alike to musician and mechanic. Asa medium of corroborating ourclaims for it at that time the piano basallowed no doubt to remain even in the mind of the most skeptical as to the jus- tice of our reputation to make good every promise given orevery responsibility we assume, The New Scale 8300 Ludden & Bates Club Piano is “WARRANTED FOR A LIFETIME” and for the past 35 years the name “Ludden & Bates” has stood for truth, and this instrument in its embodi- ment of truth is our emblem. MUSICIANS HAVE CHOSEN IT—be- cause it met their demands in every par- tirular. Tis resonance of tone, sympa. thetic quality and wonderful sustaioing power, with its evenness of touch, have made it alike the favorite of singer and player. * BUSINESS MEN HAVE SELECTED [T—because in all its mechanical appear- uaces it has reached the standard of worke, manship, and combining its artistic quall- ies with its pleasing design of case, st of fers them A MAXIMUM OF VALUE FOR A MINIMUM OF PRICE.

A Ger mtown will scarcely be found, says se Oppler-Legbaud in am article in Independent, without one or two torlal artists devoting themselves ely to making the reform dress. ere is even a studio of artistic dress jone of the department stores in Ber- }, with Mrs. Oppler-Legbaud, who {s ell known artist, in charge. e feform dress movement in Ger. has gone through two distinct ges. The first attempts ‘were made ug byglenic lines only. Several £0. les for the promotion of the de Jed ‘reform ‘were formed in the nine- is’ and a number of prominent phy- lams joined the movement. The re ts ‘were not satisfactory owing te ‘lack of consideration for beauty, jmany friends were lost to the Pp Then the artists came to the ge,-and the movement took a new Ry of-1ite.” * * Sue of those whose work contrib- f,thiscend, Mrs. Oppler-Legbaud katt stie has aimed to effect a sensible compromise between fashion reform and the hygienfe And practical requirements of the sex, ‘This she found to be a dificult task, owing to the absence of traditions to build upon, Parls dressmakers have no new prob: lems to solve, but dress reformers must begin at the foundation, They nre*niso hampered by the lack of dress» makers able to compete with the con ventional artists. Yet all these difti- culties have been suffictently overcome to make the reform dress popular. “Men and women formerly opposed to our reform movement are gladly learning,” says Mrs. Oppler-Legbaud, “to appreciate the female form as na- ture has fashioned it, and are begin- ning to comprehend that the natural lines of nature evidenced In the reform dress as-opposed to the deforming cér- sets form tle very basic conditions of dress reform. To attain this happy aim when the eye rests and feasts with unalloyed delights on the soft and yielding form of the female body and Its beauty and untrammelled mobility 1s our hope.” .

They did not wish to go to the extreme of promenading In bloom- ers, but have been successful In, intro- dueing the skirt-of ankle length. As dresses worn with shirt watsts meet with most favor for street yrear, they are made with nll possible “variations of suspetiders in order td distribute the welght of the materfal on shoulders ‘and hips. PN ee aoe Ce ee ae re care ee | According to the Newark (N, J.) Ad- vertiser, sentiment {s becoming an an- Known quantity in the lover’s vocabu- lary, and incidents are cited as proofs of this deplorable state. The view seems to be decidedly pessimistic, and ‘one cannot but feel that if a broader field of observation. had been taken, the conclusions would have been much less pessimistic, at least. ‘The state- ment referred to follows: Sentiment is really on the wane évery day; incldents come to one’s notice which verify this fact to an almost pathetic intensity. In older days gifts were given, with feeling frém the, in- most regions of the leatt of the giver: No thought of effect was prevalent. Not so now. The florists tell an in- teresting tale of this, As long as the world goes on so long will flowers be one of the most acceptable, most beau- tiful of” gifts. Years ago they were plucked by the ardent lover to give to his loved one. They were sent with love sonnets, hidden away in the clus- ter of plain field flowers or exquisite roses or violets. No card accompanied them. ‘But this sort of wooing fs not to the modern lover's liking. He sends bou- quets of violets when they are scarce, orehids which cost a smal} fortune; American Beauties with yard stems, but with all no missives are to be found. A plain card js all, and to many it would seem as though the card said: “I send you $10 worth of love with these flowers,” or, “Am I not an ac- ceptable lover when I spend so much money on blossoms for my Indy?” Such fs much of the sentiment of t9- day. Money is really the greater part of it, love being quite a secondary con- dition. The modern girls are, as a ma- Jority, content to receive the blossoms notwithstanding the lack of sentiment. Perhaps as the years pass on sentiment will be a thing of the past—something merely spoken of as a cbaracterist{e of the olden days. @-prety= . mae Things ~ (BO WhO ‘The veil plays a most importént part in fall millinery. a - All sorts of supple cloths arg!high in favor for every sort of use. é Hairy cloths—zibelines and iheir kin are used very sparingly, and mostly for separate coats then.

He pretended not to hear, but I saw him color me. He took no notice of me, when I left the club just behind him, till I touched him on the arm. "You heard what I said about your book?" I remarked. "Yes," he said. "I heard. I knew you hadn't seen me, so you needn't apologize." "No," I said. "I didn't see you, but I wasn't going to apologize. It is a bad book." I looked at him, but he would not look at me. "It's true to life," he asserted. of the world, knot and a little more. I ought to be, but ten that book. than I wouldn't good woman thought of it." He turned from walked away. As I have said my fellows, and a bad book in this book of B my mind. The public bougwright dramatiz into concrete fo Is true to life, he asserted. "And what has that to do with it?" I asked. "There's poison, but you needn't give it to people." "People needn't take my poison unless they like. Apparently they do. It's run to 35,000 already." "I am sorry you are poisoning so many." "It isn't my fault if life is poisonous. I didn't make it what it is." "You're helping to make it what it will be. People can't touch pitch, or read it, without the usual consequences." "You've no right to call it that," he protested. "There's nothing coarse or repulsive in the book." "That's why I condemn it! Vice that looks like vice only appeals to the vicious. Vice that looks like virtue contaminates the virtuous." "I didn't invent the virtuous looking vices; only described them as I found them." "You didn't describe them as vices." "Preaching isn't my business or yours." "Photographing vices in fancy costumes is the devil's business," I told him. "The things that you force upon people's notice wouldn't enter the mind of a good man—if there is such a person. Anyhow, there are good women, and they don't suspect that problems like those in your book exist." "They can't help seeing them unless they shut their eyes." "Then they shut their eyes." "Would your mother—" "My mother belonged to a past generation," he interrupted. "Good women are the same in all generations. We'll take one of the present day. Would your wife—" He grasped my arm roughly. "I won't discuss my wife," he said sharply. "I'm not discussing your wife. I'm discussing you. I was fond of your father, Brunid, and I've known you since you were a little chap in petticoats. You used to play with the dog's head on my stick. I suppose I didn't know you all the time. I never suspected you had it in you to write as you do, or that you would if you could. You can write. There's no doubt about it. The less excuse for wasting your powers on these 'men and women' stories." "I shall be grateful if you can discover a third sex to write about," he observed. against since Eden. I don't say you can give us all good. They wouldn't be real men and women if you did, but take the writer's privilege, and give us something just a little better than poor humanity." "I can't make humanity what it isn't." "You can avoid making it worse." "There's no harm in the book," he insisted doggedly. "My boy, there is. Don't take my word. I'm an old man; old enough for sin to be saltless. I haven't been a saint, either, but I've been an honest sinner. I never passed off wrong for right, even to myself. Ask one of your own generation 'Ask'—I laid my hand on his shoulder—"ask your wife if she would like to have written that book." He stopped walking and made a queer little gulp in his throat. His wife was a bold card to play against him, for she was a colbless little person—some one had called her "the little gray woman" and I knew of no reason why he should value her opinion, except that he had married her. As she couldn't have won him by her looks or external attractions, I credited her with some charm of character. "My wife is proud of my books," he said, after he had wiped his face with his handkerchief. "You're wife is proud of you. She takes your books on trust—blind trust. If you put her instinct as a woman to the test—her instinct, as a good woman—" I of the world, knowing its weaknesses, and a little more tolerant of them than I ought to be, but I wouldn't have written that book. Men that are worse than I wouldn't have written it. A good woman couldn't even have thought of it." He turned from me in a rage and walked away. As I have said, I am no better than my fellows, and I have tolerated many a bad book in my time; but somehow this book of Brand's welghed upon my mind. The press blamed it, but the public bought it. A noted playwright dramatized it and put its evil into concrete form. I could not stop the harm which it had done; but I thought perhaps I might induce his wife to stop him from writing like it. So I called upon her. She rose to greet me with a friendly smile. She was one of the women that elderly men like, because they have a kluddy feeling for elderly men. I smiled at her, too. "I wondered when you were coming to congratulate me on Charlie's book," she said. She always imputed kind intentions to one. "I'm afraid I haven't come for that," I owned. "My dear, I don't like Charlie's book. You see, I'm an old fashioned man." "I see." She flushed slightly. "You don't believe in problem stories?" "I believe in them? Oh, yes! I'm old, and my eyes have been open for some years, but I don't want to open other people's. I don't want to open yours, my dear. I'd rather you believe the world was good. It's the belief of you good little women that makes it better. Charlie believes in you, and I want you to make him better. I don't mean that he's bad. He's a very, very clever man, as the book shows. He sees things that most of us miss. We're better for missing them, my dear. We don't want to be told about them. He's told us. That's what's wrong." She worked furiously at the embroidery which she had picked up. "Is there anything in the book that you had missed?" she asked quietly. "I'm afraid not, but I want the world to be better than myself, you see!" "It isn't. It sees things just as you do, and pretends that it doesn't—just as you prejend." "Concealment implies condemnation. Evil isn't so dangerous when it's kept out of sight. Speak of the—problem story!" "The pretence is threadbare," she objected. I was surprised that she expressed herself so well. "There are hundreds of published problems, and many of them are far more lurid. The book is, at any rate, refined. Its problems are 'such as come to good men and women; such as leave them some of their virtues." "Yes." I dropped my milt in my eagerness. "Yes. That is why the book is so dangerous. Other tales show worse evils, but they show them as evils; as temptations; that the fraction of goodness in us fights against, even when it is overcome. Your husband has brought in the Powers of Light to fight for the Powers of Darkness. The plain man shrugs his shoulders at the other books. He shudders at this. Even the club smoking room condemns it. Some of the best men go so far as to avoid the author." She looked up over her work. Her face was white. "Does Charlie realize this?" she asked. I nodded. "We were-talking about it the other evening. He overheard us.. He must have known before— Of course he knows." She plied her needle again. "Have you spoken to him?" she inquired. "Yes. He left me in a temper because I counselled him to put the matter to you. You have a great hold over him, I am sure. A good woman always has a hold over a man. I am certain that, at the bottom of his heart, he is ashamed of the book, but—" "But"—she laid down the work. "He didn't write it. I did!" "I. No, I am not saying it to shield him. It is quite true. I—I wonder if you could understand? You see, I am not pretty or attractive. People generally left me alone. So I used to sit and watch them; and see things. I see a great deal. I can't help it. It is my nature. I dare say, I looked too much for what was bad, but it is hard for a woman when she is not attractive. It makes her look for defects in others. I was very bitter against people then. I'm not bitter now, because Charlie finds me attractive. It wouldn't occur to you, that I can be, but I can. It didn't occur to him at first. He came and introduced himself to me out of their pity for my laziness. He's like Ohah. A time dog. I thus who's down on his luck, even a 'little gray woman'—you see I know my name he can't pass me. He came and talked to me just because he thought I wanted some one to talk to. I made up my mind that next time he should come because he wanted to talk to me. Do you know I almost screamed with my anxiety to attract him. And when he was going he gripped my hand and nearly broke it you know how he does with people he likes—and said, 'What a lot people miss by not talking to you!' And I began to cry. 'I've been lonely—lonely—lonely!' I told him, 'and every one thinks I'm stupid and dull.' And he said, 'You needn't be lonely if you'll let me talk to you. No! Talk to me, you bright little thing!' It was the first compliment I ever had—the very first! Well, that is over now. I'm not a bit spiteful to the world. I even like a few people. I like you. But you see I'd got into the habit of studying the defects in people, and I'd grown curious about them. Women always are. I knew others would be, curious. So I wrote the books. They succeeded. I knew they would, or I shouldn't have used Charlie's name.' "And he was willing to borrow your success?" I said huskily. It hurt me to lose my good idea of him. "No. He wasn't. I made him do it. I don't think, you realize that I am clever enough to manage Charlie quite easily. I told him that I didn't want success for myself—I don't very much—and that my greatest desire in life was success for him. That was certainly true. I declared that I hadn't the courage to publish the books under my own name. That wasn't true at all. I pointed out that I should find it difficult to study people if they knew I wrote. I persuaded him that the books would do good, because truth always does good. That, of course, is false. I don't think he was quite persuaded at the bottom of his mind, but he thought the bottom of his mind was wrong, because he believed in me. I believed in myself. Well, you've shown me I was wrong." She snatched up the work and sewed again for a few minutes. Her eyelids flickered and I supposed she was going to cry, but she did not. So I let her fight out her battle alone. I thought she was using heavier artillery than I could bring to bear. "I suppose," she said, presently, "you expect me to say that I'll own up to the books and clear him? If so, you're mistaken. I shall not: I wonder"—she lold down the work again—"if you'd believe me if I told you why?" "Yes," I promised. "I shall believe you." "If I owned the books the blame would fall on me. I shouldn't care, but Charlie would. You see"—her face lift up, and I saw at last that she had attractions—"Charlie is very much in love with me. He would rather people attacked him than attacked me. I shall get my punishment in knowing that he is hurt. You need not fear that I am going scot free. I don't think you want me to be hurt, though?" I picked up my hat and rose. "No," I said, "I don't. You are a good woman, in spite of the book. God bless you! You'll come out all right, my dear." I held out my hand and she put both hers over it and smiled up at me. "Yes," she said. "It is the belief of you good men that makes women better. I shall come out all right. You will see." I saw, when the next book appeared under his name. It was a great, good story, and it took the world by storm. The hero was a man who sacrificed himself to shield a woman—and I knew she meant him. The heroine was a woman who learned the lesson of life from her love's sacrifice—and I knew she meant herself. Her father-confessor was a kindly old gentleman who tried to spread the butter of benevolence over the bread of the world. She thought she had portrayed me, but she had only succeeded in picturing the man I ought to have been. The cleverest of women subordinate reason to feeling, and "the little gray woman," whose charm society is beginning to find out, has an affection for my unworthy self. If the blessing of an old sinner can benefit her, she has it—Black and White. Cured. A story is told of the wonderful cure from deafness of a patient who was recommended to hear a Wagner opera and to sit near the orchestra by the trumbles. The physician accompanied his patient and sat beside him. Suddenly, while the crash of instruments was at its loudest, the deaf man found, he could hear. "Doctor," he almost shrieked, "I can heart!" The doctor gave no sign that he noticed, the remark, "I tell you, doctor," repeated the patient in ecstasy, "you have saved me; I have recovered my hearing." Still the physician was silent. He had become deaf himself.—Harper's Weekly. Not the One. Commenting on the number of Joneses in Wales, a writer says: "It is inconvenient if, when a foreman calls Jones' forty or fifty men come running to him." It recalls the old story told of a certain Oxford College much resorted to by Welshmen. A man from another college went into their squad in search of a friend, and called "Jones!" All the windows looking on the squad flew open. "I want John Jones," said the man. Half the windows closed. "I mean the John Jones who has got a toothbrush." All the windows closed but one—London Globe. King Edward's father used to be referred to as "Albert the Good."

That firmness and kindness combined will easily govern many wild animals that by nature are fierce and innuity finds a notable illustration in Gunda, the young elephant which daily amuses hundreds of youngsters at the Bronx Zoological Gardens in New York City. Gunda was captured wild in an Indian jungle 'just a little over a year ago, and purchased for the Zoological Gardens by Hagenbeck, the famous animal trainer whose Zoo is one of the wonders of Berlin. He was shipped in care of an Indian keeper, Hassan Bey by name, as it war supposed that the young elephant would be far less lonely when attended from the beginning of his captivity by a native with whom he was familiar. Kunda was brought over in a strong crate, and finally lodged in the elephant quarters. From the moment he was taken from the crate Gunda was sullen, fierce, wickedly inclined, and considered dangerous. Hassan Bey took little interest in his charge, and finally became so indifferent—spending most of his time sighing for his faraway home—that Director Hornaday discharged him, with the gift of a steamship ticket, and sent him back to Ceylon. Hassan Bey had remained only a month, and during that time Gunda's only mission in life seemed to be the destruction of everything within reach of his trunk. He wrecked his stall, threatened his keeper, and gave many evidences of being a genuinely bad elephant, like Central Park Tom and others who became murderers and met a murderer's fate. But at the earnest request of young Frank Gleason, Gunda was placed in his charge the day Hassan Bey took his leave, and a marvelous transformation began at once. Gleason, who is only twenty-eight, has spent most of his life among wild animals, principally elephants, and has the natural love for his beasts that is the first requisite of a successful trainer. He had watched Gunda from the day of his arrival, and had been thoroughly convinced that the whole trouble was due to the native Indian keeper, whom Gunda did not really like. "Gunda's heart is in the right place, and I think I am the boy to reach it," young Gleason told Director Hornaday. His appeal was so earnest that Dr Hornaday, somewhat against his own better judgment, finally decided to give Gleason a chance. Originally, Gunda was purchased for the mission he is now fulfilling, of that carrying people on his back about the park. Gleason took charge of him at a time when the powers higher up had about decided he should go the way of all bad elephants. He told Director Hornaday he would have Gunda safe and ready for work inside of a week, but his confidence only excited good-natured railway and a statement that if he had Gunda tamed in two months it would be highly satisfactory. The young keeper believed in himself and believed in Gunda. Director Hornaday was astonished when, two days after Gleason had taken charge, he appeared astride of the elephant in front of the director's office and announced that Gunda was "good" and ready for business. The wicked young elephant had become not only good, but really obedient, for he obeyed Gleason's commands with an accuracy and willingness that made the Bronx officials marvel. Within a week Gunda was ambling about the park loaded down with gleeful children, and getting just as much fun out of it all as the youngsters on his back. Now he is as gentle and lovable as one could wish, and the especial pet of the children who flock to the park during the spring and summer months. It costs fifteen cents to ride on Gunda's back, and, generally speaking, there are not a great, many youngsters of those who visit Bronk Park who can spare fifteen cents for an elephant ride. But all are allowed to feed him peanuts and sweetmeats, and Gunda has grown fat and good-natured on the generous morsels he has received from his young friends. When the young elephant came to the park, he behaved like a frightened child when first taken out of his stall into the highways and byways. He would stand and tremble all over at the sight of a little dog, while the sight of a donkey or horse would almost give him a fit. Now he is not even afraid of the largest and fiercest looking automobile. He climbs over fences, calls on the other animals quartered in his neighborhood, plays with any dog that comes along, and allows the children to pull his ears and pat his sides to their hearts' content. Gunda's best friends, with the exception of his keeper, are Mr. and Mrs. Schwarz, of the Rocking Stone Restaurant, where Schwarz is chef and his wife assistant. The chef knows what lidblis Guida likes best, and always has a supply waiting when Guarda ascends the steps leading to the res- taurant and thrusts.his trunk through the kitchen door or kneels down at Gleason's bidding and "begs" for his breakfast. Gunda calls at the restaurant Jally. Gunda has the greatest faith and confidence in his young master, and no terrace is too high for him to climb at Gleason's bidding. He has made rapid progress in the English language and understands many words. Besides being an unusually intelligent elephant, Gunda promises to become a monster of his kind. Elephants grow until they are past thirty, and Gunda is only eight. When he reached the Zoo he weighed 3740 pounds, and in March he weighed 4400; a gain of nearly 700 pounds in a year. In the same time his height increased from six feet seven inches to six feet eleven and a half inches. His tusks are nineteen inches long, and are said to be the finest that any captive elephant of his age can boast—Helen D, van Eaton, in St. Nicholas. MAKING A PANTOGRAPH. An instrument that can be used to copy maps or drawings, or to enlarge or reduce them, is called the pantograph, and you can make one yourself with just a little care. You can use four flat pieces of wood, as shown in the illustration, or four plain flat rules, which you can buy for a cent aple. The rules are better, for they have the 'inches' and smaller divisions already marked on them, whereas if you use the pieces of wood you will have to make those marks yourself. The four pieces must be so fastened together at B, G, G and H that they can turn freely on each other, and all parts of the pantograph must be supported at the same distance from the table, so that the motion will be an even one. If you use ordinary screw eyes to fasten the joints G, B and H from below, they will lift the pantograph to an equal level. A lead pencil is fastened at A, and a screw eye should be put in from underneath, just next to it, to hold it level also. At G a steel nail is used DIAGRAM OF THE PANTOGRAPH. of such a length that its point just clears the table when the pantograph reats on the screw eyes. F is fastened to a block of wood screwed on the table, by means of a steel nail, on which it must move freely. It is well to shape this block like K, so that the screws which hold it on the table will not prevent the stick from moving freely on the nail at F. If you now place a map or a picture under C, and a piece of blank paper under A, and then move the steel nail at C along the lines of the picture, the pencil at A will draw a similar picture twice the size of the one at C. If you put the pencil at C and steel nail at A, the picture drawn will be one-half the original size. The proportions may be made different by changing the position of the joints G and H, where the pieces of wood are fastened together, but the opposite sides of the figures CG and HB must be kept equal. You can regulate the size of the drawing by remembering that, the line drawn by A will always be as much larger than that drawn by C as the line AB is larger than CH; so that if you wish to enlarge the picture or map to four times its size move the hinge half way up to C. And since the opposite sides of the diamond must be kept equal, G must also be moved half way down to B. If you make the pantograph carefully it will more than repay all your trouble—New York Evening Mall. * The French President.

D., are making efforts to interest the public in the organization which is one much needed in this community. The home is temporarily opened in rented apartments near the Waters Road, where several orphans are now being cared for. It is the purpose of the incorporators to purchase a suitable location with plenty of room and erect there a building that will meet the needs of such an undertaking. An opportunity will be given the colored citizens to show their appreciation of the movement by subscribing to the cause, and it is hoped that they will liberally respond. Protective League The Negro Protective League is a new organization that is bidding for public favors. It was organized as announced in THE TRIBUNE 4 month ago.

Its main purpose is to further and encourage business enterprises. It will conduct a campaign of race loyalty and endeavor to spread the same to every colored home in the city. Those business and professional men and others who have not been enrolled and desire to become members can do so by attending the next meeting. The organization is a timely one and should meet the encouragement of everybody. Left for Tampa, Fla. The host of friends of Mr. Paul Clark sincerely regret that he has left the city to make his home in Tampa, Fla. He left early Monday morning last and was joined later in the week by Mrs. Clark and children. Mr. Clark has been in the employ of J. Rosenhiem & Sons for a number of years. He enjoyed the utmost confidence of his employers. His position was the most responsible in the business; he had charge of the stock, orders, etc. By his high integrity, faithfulness to duty and conservativeness in its discharge he made himself almost indispensable. He enjoyed privileges few of our men similarly situated do, but true to his make up he did not abuse one of them. When Mr. Clark tendered his resignation his employers were surprised and made overtures for him to change his intention, but without avail. Sufficient notice was given them and last Saturday terminated his service. In doing so he has retained the good will and friendship not only of his late employers, but others connected with the ebusiness, Mr. Clark will make his home in Tampa, where he will conduct a merchandizing business. His years of training has fully fitted him for this and his success in it is assured. About a year ago he made a trip to Tampa viewing the grounds and has since been preparing for his removal and opening of business. As a citizen, Mr. Clark is admired by all who know him. He had a knack of making and retaining friends, and true ones too. He is blessed with children to be proud of. He has carried with him the beat wishes of each one of his numerous friends and a hope for his success in every respect. Rates to the Exposition.
