SAY IT'S UP TO YOUR COSMOS "New Thought" Advocates Hold Forth in Carnegie Hall Meeting in New York. MES: ELLA CHAPMAN Some of the followers of Dr. Julia Seton Sears, head of the "New Thought" cult, who have been enjoying "thought abundance" at the meeting in Carnegie Lyceum in company with their fellow believers of all nations, shades, races, color and previous faith. VOL. 24. NO. 25. SAY IT'S UP TO "New Thought" Advocates Hiding in "We are it," says the New Thought. We held a convention in Carnegie Lyceum, in New York, last week which brought together believers in this comforting doctrine from New York, Boston and Brockton, and everybody was happy and "thought abundance." There were smartly gowned women, who read essays, tied with pink ribbon, pundits from far India, teachers of new health food rules, former theosophists, students of the occult and late followers of half-forgotten "Isaas," all held together by the golden chain of the New Thought, which puts money in the purse of thinking and implies health, wealth and love. New York has now two branches of the new organization, and there exists, in fact, a New Thought church, of which the New Thought college at No. 1 Carnegie hall is the inspiration and source. The chief "New Thoughter" is Mrs. Julia Seton Sears, a physician and philosopher, and the high priestess of the new idea. Being, as she says, a regularly graduated physician, Mrs. Sears does not oppose the administration of medicines, nor does she deem them unnecessary. Unlike Christian Scientists, she does not in effect repudiate the existence of matter. She admits that disease exists, although it is a failure to understand the higher Cosmic intelligence which causes it. There is much comfort to be derived by thinking of the new cult by thinking. The college is a large room on the ground floor of Carnegie hall. Those who surround Mrs. Sears regard her as the secreess and the lead MES: ELLA CHAPKAN Some of the followers of Dr. Ju in Carnegie Lyceum in company wi er of their new church and attend her as faithful followers when she gives instruction on the principles of correct thinking and proper living. There are sixty books which form the bulk of the literature on the part of the layman who has not the inspiration and belief of the new ideas to analyze the various concepts which go to make it. Here are some of the vital sayings: "Perfect health, perpetual opulence or divine realization for all mankind. "Peace, power and plenty are the constant possessions of those who know how to make union with them, how to overcome us from the Infinite, and nothing finite can interpose between the supply and the soul which has made a conscious relation with the universal aboundance. "The All Will wants us to have everything that we want and will help us to secure it. No one can say 'no' to us but ourselves. We are the highest expression of life on this plane, and lords, indeed, of all this lower kingdom. "We believe in the one life in all and through all; its understanding inspires all human intelligence, its infinity is the animating principle of all being; it is a powerful, glorious, allsufficient, and has in it neither sin, sickness, poverty nor death." Perhaps an important phase of the body which we may be summed up in the phrase, "I want what I want and when I want it," to which may be added "I want what I want and I get it." "Every life," to quote from Dr. Sears' 'Key to Health, Wealth and Love,' "has a right to desire and to have and to hold this trinity for itself. No one says 'No' to us but ourselves; no one limits us but ourselves. The All Will wants us to have everything that we want and will help us to so cure it and aid us to keep it. The universal intelligence is no respector of persons; and if we lack while others have supply there is nothing the matter with the cosmic consciousness, or is something materially wrong in an comprehension of it." It is then addressed by Dr. Sears that the human race must have love because the first requisite to happy life is a sound body and the ability to distent and the weariness of the flesh. "Health," says she, "is first in the trinity. We may wait for recognition of wealth and love." One of the speakers in the recent convention, Mrs. Ella Chapman of New Hampshire, dwelt upon the criticisms made by those who, failing to understand the new cult, considered that too much attention was given to the material. Mrs. Sears, with the key, unlocks the mysteries of the New Thought teachings in this respect: "We want alone to have money, wealth, abundance of supply. Why? Because, in the present rate of consciousness, wealth has become a medium of exchange on the physical plane, where every life makes personal contact for freedom. This age is one of great material power and lives that are caught in the currents of personal and are opposed to the universal trend of evolution must forever be ground to dust and ashes beneath the great transmitting power that is higher than themselves." That wealth is also necessary so that those who have it may be able to give a cup of cold water to the less fortunate. MISS ELLA M. ROBIN alla Seton Sears, head of the "New Th with their fellow believers of all nations, After all, financial embarrassment, according to the New Thought concept, may be only state of mind, rather than an actual condition. If a man finds himself alone in a strange city and has not a penny in his pocket, he will only keep his purse empty by becoming paralyzed by fear and anxiety for the morrow. If a woman invites Mrs. Sears in the Key, "we teach ourselves to look into an empty purse with the same feeling of opulence that we should have if we saw $1,000 in it, then we have laid hold of that energy which creates, and no power on earth could prevail to keep that purse empty. It is not in the doing, but in the being opulent that we get the power. We must know how to get back of the things that flares, nickels, dimes—into the energy of the world, and this recognition held steadfastly brings life into relation with higher lines of attraction." Followers of other cults may wonder why all do not have wealth and why it is so hard to get "into union" with the superabundant supply. Mr. Sears tells plainly how to do it. "Simply," she writes, "get the interior attitude of seeing, feeling and being opulent. The first step toward the supply of material things is absolute recognition. We must fill all our hands of consciousness with the thought of the abundance of supply everywhere; all any one has to do is look with eyes that see and he cannot escape the truth of the divine opulence." It is the theory of New Thought that once the physical demand for money is lost from a life it goes on more rapidly in its search for freedom. Sometimes the life becomes so free that it goes on a toboggan slide. The Old Thought persons believed that in many lives too much money meant the pathway to damnation. Not THE APPEAL. ST.

"The faster a life goes to the devil," she writes in the Key, "the quicker its race will be run, and it will come through its experience into the ultimate regeneration. The cure of the thing is in the thing itself, and no one can know the cure but the life which relates it. "Last of all love is required to illuminate the dull gray of the commonplace. "We want love. Every nature demands it, for latent in every soul is the recognition that love is the fulfilling of the law of its being. Without the softening and revivifying influence of love all that is best in human expression would sink into oblivion." It is healthy, well worthy and wise, it is not necessary then to go to bed early, but to be immersed in New Thought up to your eyes. As far as the treatment of disease goes, the efforts in that direction are aimed at getting the race thoroughly to understand the great cosmic consciousness. Disease is only the result of mixed currents of the mind registering negative thought currents. Nobody would be ill unless at some time or other he had recognized his malady in the absolute and had permitted it to register into his corporal form. If a human illness became and deformity it is because in the orbit of his soul he got out of the mony, and the result is that he appears in an imperfect physical manifestation. Behind every deformity is the revenge of some negative energy, which has long since been forgotten, probably, but is still at work. The healer, therefore, who is intelligent, will merely get in touch with the cosmic forces and direct them in such a way that the supreme being be made to understand the supreme energies and to again get into cadence with the harmonies of the universe.

VIRTUES OF THE WOOD CUT. Superiority of a Dying Art to Its Cheaper Successor. We are glad to learn that the Association of Women Principals of the Public schools of New York has taken up certain important questions connected with the care of school children's eyes, says the New York Medical Journal. Physicians have for years been convinced of the deleterious effects of the maddening glare given out by the glazed paper which is used in books when it is thought to illustrate them with half-tone engravings. In some foreign publications we find half-tones hardly printed on paper which is almost if not quite unobjectionable so far as glare is concerned. Our French and German exchanges, for example, afford ample evidence of this. Many of the half-tone engravings are in a high degree artistic, and they have the advantage of presenting undeniable reproductions of photographic pictures, with all their good points and all their bad ones. For all that, however, we prefer wood cuts for weaves. There are the half-tones that present and hold depictions as are to be found, for instance, in the old wood cuts of Sapphire's Anatomy. But the wood cuts must be of a high order of excellence, and to whom shall we turn now for such work in wood cutting as we were accustomed to a few decades ago? Doubless a few accomplished wood engravers still survive, but their numbers are steadily diminishing. Wood engraving, alas, is almost a lost art. As a rule an engraving on wood is made with a half-tone block, and doubtless that is the way of a general return to the wood, but it ought not to prevent our taking all practicable steps to safeguard the children's eyes. A GOQD SAMARITAN. Looks After the Underserved Poor—Says No One Will. There is a rich man in a Southern city who makes the undeserving poor his peculiar care, says the Independent. His methods in healing with what he calls a fresh simmer are unique, and he regards them as scientific from the heavenly point of view. He insists upon a full catalogue of the victim's transgressions. He claims that this is done on the theory that a physician first administers an emetic in case of poisoning. Then if the patient is an utterly loci and abandoned woman he frequently takes her home with him, where she is quartered in the guest chamber and treated by the family as the welcome guest whose presence there is in no way remarkable. For our scientist claims that is is the loss of the sacred home consciousness in such women which casts them so far down, and his purpose is to restore the same by his own fireside, which particularly attractive in that he has a love of young children. Nothing is said to the forlorn one to remind her of the shame; she is simply left to get well, as the scientist expresses it. And it is astonishing how many of them do get well.

Upon a recent visit to a distant city he remarked to the editor. "I married one of my girls off in this town; couple doing well; moving in the best society. Good as the rest, too, now.

He cannot make a speech, but he is an eloquent splutterer; and, although his manner to-ministers is wittily defiant, he has been known to ruin a preacher's meeting and make the victims of his burning incoherence look like rows of paper dolls blown before the breath of a living man displease. WIND, JEST WIND. A certain Liverpool teacher, in endeavoring to explain to his class what compressed air was, brought his bicycle into the room and leaned it up against the wall. "Now," he remarked, "under the outer covering of that back wheel there is a hidden force. What is it?" "Jurrybubber," a smart youth. "The boy tried again, as did nearly every member of the class, but without success. At length one of the youngsters, who had been making a close inspection of the machine, turned on the teacher with a beaming face. "I have it," he exclaimed. "It's wind— lest wind!" After commending the youngster the teacher asked how he discovered the "hidden force." "Why," was the astounding reply, "I've jest stuck my knife in it to see!" Which was the absolute fact, as the discomfited teacher discovered to his cost. THE BRIGHT FUTURE OF "WHITE COAL" Water Power, the Most Ancient Source of Energy, Also the Most Modern—Fields Hydro=ElectricityOpens. YOKING THE GLACIERS TO MAN'S SERVICE.

A BIG BROTHER OF THE OLD-TIME MILL POND Huge dam, with power house at the right, where the forces of the St. Croix river are converted into light and power for Minneapolis. It is one of the queer paradoxes of this century of machinery and power that the most ancient and crudest form of mechanical force is becoming the most modern and highly perfected. Two or three thousand years ago, when the Egyptians and Assyrians were the coors of the world's great work, the latent energy locked up in its stream that "runs down hill" was very powerful. Power man had at his disposal, except human brawn and brute strength. And now, after manifold attempts at improvements, this ready-at-hand gift of nature seems on the way to be man's best reliance once more. In the last decade water power has been slowly pushing its way ahead of all the "better things" devised in the last twenty centuries. To-day engineers predict that the future will find it the most economical and practical means of operating machinery and the most valuable factor in building up industry. It is only within a few decades that it has been possible to use water power as it is now used. Only with the perfecting of long distance electrical transmission has it had any value beyond turning machinery connected di- Power house where the streams from ge rectly with mill wheels. Yet the most recent and complete estimates set the amount of energy Americans are obtaining from the streams and cataracts of the United States in excess of 2,000,000 horsepower. Roughly speaking, this represents the output of 100 of the largest steam power engines built, and is an amount of energy which during a year would require not less than 10,000,000 tons of coal, costing approximately $30,000,000. The latest authentic statistics in regard to the use of different kinds of power in the United States, contained in a report of the United States census bureau, show that the use of electricity increased 3,068 per cent in the ten years from 1890 to 1900 and about 222 per cent beyond that in the five years from 1900 to 1905. And of the power used by electric power electricity generated in 1908 by electricity more than a third was produced by the establishment Among the establishments which bought their power and which used 442,592 electric horsepower as against 191,313 horsepower of other kinds, the increase in five years in the use of electricity had been almost 142 per cent, while the increase in the use of other power—chiefly, steam and direct water power—was less than 40 per cent. The census reports twenty-seven electric power plants in the United States, some of them distributing over distances of many miles, while upon the conversion of hydraulic energy and its transmission and distribution in the shape of electrical energy."

But the step has been taken and now many more will follow depends only on the limit of ingenuity of this ingenuous age. The first application of water power on any scale in this country was in Lowell, Mass., where the first great cotton mills were established. The system of canals at Lowell, planned by Maj. George W. Whistler, father of the famous and erratic English-American artist, still stands as an achievement-in engineering. It demonstrated what a river could be made to do if you could get near enough to it; it would be a way to building up industries that would be economical power to be profitable; possibilities of water power used on a large scale. But until a way was found of converting water power into a transmissible form its usefulness. OKING THE GLACIERS TO MAN'S SERVICE FROM Mount Rainier, brought fifteen miles more electricity for the Puget sound was restricted to industries that could be located on the water course and could be conducted on a big enough scale to justify the building of a large and expensive plant. Such for example, are the great cotton mills, the sawmills, and the huge flour mills of New England, the South and the Northwest. Whover was the man who conceived the idea of making water power turn a generator of electricity and then distributing the electricity wherever it was wanted for miles around, he was one of the greatest benefactors of modern industry. Perhaps the first application of his scheme was to electric light and trolley car plants in the rural districts, where fuel is costly and water power easily available. Lots of small New England towns owe their well lighted streets and their cross-country trolley service to the patient, plodding water wheel. But the modern hydro-electric power plant is a marvel of ingenuity so different from its crude predecessors that it can hardly be thought of as a development from them. The water power development on the St. Croix river, for example, which furnishes electricity for lighting and manufacturing purposes in Minneapolis, now it covers 40,000 horsepower and will it be planned to increase to twice that volume. That the Chattahoochee, from which power is provided for the region about Columbus, Ga., now aggregates 9,000 horsepower, while, now aggregates 19,000 horsepower are utilized, an ultimate development of 75,000 horsepower is anticipated.

WHITE COAL" to the Most Modern—Fields power development, which, harnessing the streams that have their source in the glaciers of Mount Ranier, provides electricity for railway, lighting and manufacturing purposes to Tacoma, Seattle and the country between, while north of it, close to the Canadian line, the Nooksack river, racing down the side of Mount Baker, has been brought into the service of the young city of Bellingham and its surrounding towns. There are innumerable small water power developments in different parts of the country; new ones spring up every day. But those which serve Minneapolis and Columbus and the Puget sound cities, the great undertaking at Niagara Falls, the big plant near the City of Mexico, and two of the three large Canadian installations are indicative of what the future may expect. In 1805 when the last authentic figures were made, there were more than fifty cities of North America supplied electrically from transmitted water power—and several of the largest hydro-electric installations have been put into operation since then. Water power has driven out fuel for operating electric installations in VICE. s down the hills in sluices and pipes, cities. a curious way in some places. In Concison, N. M., for example, there are large railway car and repair shops. Some years ago a complete plant of engines, dynamos and motors for running the machinery throughout the plant was installed. Every pound of coal burned in Concord must come over the lines of the railroad that owns the shops, and it is to be supposed that the railroad can obtain its fuel as cheaply as any one could. But the expensive engines and dynamos now stand idle and the motors that own the shops have a current brought from the local electric supply system which generates its power by utilizing the energy of a nearby stream. The fuel bill is a mighty serious production to many manufacturers, and though the exhaust of the fuel supply is not imminent it has already begun to have its effect upon the prices of coal, petroleum and natural gas. But the "white coal" of the brooks and rivers grows cheaper as its utilization grows more scientific and skilful, so that waterpower electrically transmitted is providing a means of running factories and industries of many kinds in places where they could never have existed if they must depend upon coal generated steam or electricity.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. Treat each man according to his worth as a man. Distrust all who would have any one class placed before any other. Other republicans have fallen because the unscrupulous have substituted loyalty to class for loyalty to the people as a whole. —President Roosevelt's speech at Little Rock, Ark. SATURDAY, JUNE 20, 1908. The Republican party has acted wisely and well in naming as its candidate for the Presidency, William Howard Taft. He is a great man, popular with the people, his public record is clean and he stands for policies which mean the continued progress of the Nation. The howl which a few Afro-Americans have made against him was inspired principally by those who had ulterior motives. Now, that the nomination has been made, these people will see the error of their ways—they will realize that they have made a mistake in endeavoring to work up opposition to the will of the majority of the party. They will realize that there is no room in the Democratic party for the Afro-American that there is no hope for the race in that direction. Mr. Taft is in no sense an enemy of the Afro-American. He has shown his friendship in many ways. Recently he accepted an appointment as one of the trustees of the Jeannes fund for the education of poor Afro-Americans of the South. M. H. HON. WILLIAM H. T AFT Next President of the United States. The Afro-Americans have a good friend in Mr. Taft and they will vote for him on November 3. The race will continue to stick to the party which gave freedom to the slave. Mr. Taft was the choice of the Republican party in national convention assembled. He was nominated by acclamation, unanimously, and the same spirit that led to his nomination will lead to victory at the polls. There is nothing to be even hoped for from the Democratic party under any circumstances and all sober-minded, thinking Afro-Americans know this and will vote accordingly. So let everybody get into the band wagon and vote the Republican ticket as usual, believing, as did the "sage of Anticosti: "The Republican party is the ship, all else is the sea." The Vice-Presidential candidate Hon. James S. Sherman, of New York, is all right, and with Taft and Sherman as our standard bearers, they will lead us to victory. AFRO-AMERICAN RIGHTS The Republican platform has in it the following plank: "The Republican party has been for more than fifty years the consistent friend of the American Negro. It gave him freedom and citizenship. It wrote into the organic law the declarations that proclaim his civil and political rights, and it believes today that his noteworthy progress in intelligence, industry and good citizenship has earned the respect and encouragement of the nation. We demand equal justice for all men, without regard to race or color; we declare once more, and without reservation, for the enforcement in letter and spirit of the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the Constitution which were designed for the protection and advancement of the Negro, and we condemn all devices that have for their real aim his disfranchisement for reasons of color alone, as unfair, un-American and repugnant to the supreme law of the land." If the Democratic platform contains anything in it that in anyway approximates these declarations it may be entitled to some consideration, but as no such thing is either probable or possible, we will still pin our faith to the G. O. P. THE DEMOCRATIC FIGHT FOR LIFE. The Democratic party must make a good fight this year if its existence as an important political power is to be preserved. Of this there are portentious signs. For instance, a year ago, the Pop- HON. FRANK O. LOWDEN Re-elected Illinois Member of Republican National Committee.—A Great Friend of the Afro-American People. ulists of Georgia, supported Hoke Smith; while this year they plowed him under. This indicates that that faction will control the party or send it down to defeat. Another indication is afforded by the following conversation which a correspondent of the Courier-Journal recently had with the late James K. Jones. The correspondent says: "But the strongest point he made in his talk was the one that his party was destined to lose a majority of the Catholic vote of the country, by reason of the shrewd politics played by Roosevelt in the Philippines. 'I suppose you know,' he said, 'that in 1904 the Pope himself indicated his wishes to his American cardinals that President Roosevelt was his friend and should be elected, and I suppose you also know that the wishes of the Pope were carried out. Why, in Tammany Hall alone, 40,000 Catholic members deserted Parker and voted for Roosevelt.' "This was pretty bad on us, when one looks back to the days of 1855-6 and remembers that had not the Democratic party squelched 'Know-Nothingism' there would not be a Catholic, church standing in the United States today." It seems to be a fact that people nowadays care very little for what a party has done in the past—they support it for the sake of what it will do in the future. If intolerable conditions exist at any time, the persons affected by them will support any party regarded as being able to relieve those conditions. The Democratic party cannot inspire such hope, on account of its disgruntled and impotent condition. The Socialist convention recently held in Chicago was not of the opera bouffe order, but was of sufficient importance to attract attention. It was a gathering of earnest men led by brainy men. And it was, essentially, a convocation of the proletariat, the working class, the very class to which the Democratic party has always appealed and of which it claimed to be the representative. Now the Socialists cannot, in the nature of things, supersede the Republican party; but, aided by the Populists and Hearst's Independence league, it seems destined to thrust the Democratic party aside and take its place. Moreover, in its very stronghold, the solid South, the Democratic party has invoked the hostility of the saloon, heretofore one of its strongest allies, by its state-wide prohibition humbug. The fact is that the Democratic party, representing nothing but obstruction and ridiculous fillibustering, lags superfluous on the stage, and ought to make its exit by either the left or right exit.

In early childhood Tom, who was born entirely blind and more than half idiotic, showed himself remarkably imitative, frequently stealing into Dr. Booker Washington, the President of the National Organization, recently gave utterance to the following statement in explanation of the purposes of the League: "The League is not a lodge; it pays no death benefits; it has no pass words, grisps, and not 'fraternal.' It is an organization of Afro-American business men. It offers to its members the fellowship of the men among the race who have succeeded. It has no honors or dignities to bestow. It is not in politics and is not run by political methods. It recognizes that in a free country like ours it is the individual who counts and that it is in the competition and struggles of business that big men have been developed—meal like Carnegie, Rockefeller, George Foster Peabody, Robert C. Ogden, etc. We have successful business men among us. We want to get them to know each other. As a race we have many special and peculiar business problems to settle. We want to find out what we are doing in a business way and we want the best advice the best business men in the race can give us to assist in solving our special business problems. This is the purpose of the Business League. It has no other purpose. It does not seek to take the place of any other organization. It is like the organization of Afro-American physicians. Better than papers is a study of facts: How much business are we doing? How about credits? How can we improve our methods of selling, etc." THE NATIONAL CONVENTION. Established Political Institution With No Laws but its Own. The national convention is the most distinctly original American continuation to the art of government. It is a product of evolution and it has no legal status. The men who framed the Constitution made no provision for nominating candidates, and, in fact, had never heard of nominations. It was their intention that the electors should choose the President uninfluenced by popular passion or prejudice. There were no parties or party organizations, and everything was left to the wisdom of the electors, who were to be chosen by the State in whatsoever manner the States pleased. Before Washington's administration had two parties had formed, and nominating machines was provided in a Congressional caucus, by which the Congressmen of each party selected the candidate and the electors ratified this selection. Thus the legislative department virtually chose the Executive in spite of all constitutional precautions to keep the departments independent. The Congressional caucus lasted until 1824, when the Jackson men bolted the nomination of Crawford. The overreaction of Crawford was particularly regarded as the greatest political reform since the establishment of the republic. The early national conventions were hardly more than conferences, the first having been held in 1831 by supporters of Clay. There are thousands of men still living who were on their way to manhood before the HON. P. B. S. PINCHBACK One of the "Old Guard."—Visitor to Convention. national convention became an established political institution, with no laws except voluntary consent, yet as effective in enforcing its decrees as the government of any other nation. Indeed, more so, for while government is forever flouted, there is no case on record in which a Presidential elector ever refused to vote for the candidate nominated by the national convention of his party.

Thomas Wiggins is the name given in his burial certificate, but the sur- nance was one which the famous pian- ist adopted. He was born a slave near Columbus, Ga., about 1850. In early childhood Tom, who was born entirely blind and more than half idiotic, showed himself remarkably imitative, frequently stealing into A. the house of his master to reproduce on the pianoforte pieces he and heard played by others. In 1861 he became so proficient on the instrument that he was taken to New York and exhulted as a phenomenon and later was widely heard in the United States and Europe.

The Thoughtiness Man Who Monopolizes Narrow Stairway. "It disturbs me always," said a quick-moving man, "when I'm climbing a pair of stairs just wide enough for two to find ahead of me a man walking up squarely in the middle, where nobody can pass him on either side, thus practically monopolizing the whole stairway. I am not disinterested, but I know that keeps me from going ahead past him, though that does disturb me, but because of the evident thoughtlessness of others that his walking so reveals. I hate to see thoughtless people. This man sees ahead of him nobody coming down, the stairway there is clear, and that's as far as he thinks. The ostrich buries its head in the sand, and thinks that there is nothing going up the middle of the stairs sees the way clear ahead and never thinks that somebody may be coming up behind. "I dodge I can get past him there, but only to find him, quite by chance, of course, swaying to that side and blocking me there; and then I try the other side, there to be blocked in the same way and to become aware by this time somewhat satisfied. But there is nothing for me to do then but walk up the stairs and follow the man in the middle until he stops clear of the stairs on the platform, where there is room to pass him. "The fact is that the man mounting the stairs in this way in the middle may be worse than thoughtless, he may be doing this from innate pigishness; he may be one of those men who naturally pig everything in sight. But the man who naturally is said for that he is a thoughtless man, who habitually thinks only of himself; and for such a man he have no use. I wouldn't hire him for any sort of a job, for the man thoughtless of other people could certainly never get anything out of them and so would not be 'profitable.'" No Need for a Poor Farm. Carver's town farm is now no more, says the Boston Journal. Not because the town cannot afford to support a retreat for the needy, but for the very good reason that there are no needy cases to be supported or cared for. This was not always the case, for only a few years ago the town had as well populated a poor farm as any town in the country. The more the vulnerable inhabitants have passed away, and to-day the body of Mrs. Reecha Churchill, the last survivor, was Defective Page man away with due ceremony in the little burying ground. For years she had been the only dependent occupant of the farm. Now that there are no poor to be housed and the farm will be closed the occupants of the little town bleve that the closing will be for good and all. Lost All Interest. As if animated by a common impulse, the crown watching the amateur baseball game geban to melt away. "What's the matter?" asked the man who had just arrived. "Is the game over?" "No," said one of the others. "A batter sent a ball just now through a plate glass window in that apartment house on the other side of the street, and one of the fellows is starting around with a hat to take up a collection to pay for the damage. "How is it that with all his merits you can't get Jenks in with the reform party?" "Because in his early days he was a volunteer fireman, and he'd rather lose than not run with the machine."

A two weeks' run of a stock production is a new departure in local theaters, but this is what will happen at the Grand Opera House with "The Girl of the Golden West." The solendid effort that Managers Hays and Neill have made to inaugurate the summer season auspiciously have achieved the most enthusiastic endorsement of local theater goers. All past records for business of a stock season have been swept away, and a new high-water mark established. This success is not to be wondered at in view of the bargain event that is being offered. A Belasco play at popular prices is in itself an event that should attract and when the Belasco play happens to be one of the best creations of the season, it will be a great opportunity to return out to be the strongest and most artistic stock organization ever seen in the West, and then there is observed a regard for scenic elaboration and detail completeness, worthy of a New York production, then the strong interest local theater goers have evidence, is easily understood. "The Girl of the Golden West" is an enjoyable play, it appeals through the naturalness of the story and of its character. No one but Belasco, however, could take the theme union which this play is built and build around it so interesting a drama, with such a variety of characters and such a blending of the elements of comedy, intensity in dramatic action, thrilling climax and scenic splendor. In the same way, the theme length of the performance the curtain will rise at eight o'clock for the evening presentation and at 2:15 for the matinee performance. Force of Habit. Wisdom.
