FUEL FOR THE MELTING POT.

ieart to Heart

Talks. Ear EDWIN A. NYE.

Even though some aenemic pessimists do croak, Lake county is not afraid of the brawny, though dirty, toilers who have crossed the great bosom of the Atlantic from the waning countries of the old world. The sweat of their sinewed muscles is to make its cities hum with industry and wrest -the laurels of dominion from ' Indianapolis and other industrial

centers of Indiana. All the hubbub and clatter that has been made by the democratic politicians and such papers as the Indianapolis News over the "hunky" vote at the last election, falls in deaf ears here, in Lake county. Some day Indianapolis will stand second to a great city yet unnamed but which is being melted out of the living, breathing component parts of a great region. Thi3 Is as sure a prophecy as was ever made and it is beginning to be realized up and down Indiana. Not only this commonwealth but the whole country has its eyes fastened on the magnetic Calumet region in Indiana, which Is welcoming workers from all parts of the world. It needs them to start the furnace fires which turn its wheels and make it a powerful part of a more powerful America. "America is God's crucible, the great melting pot, where all of the races are melting and reforming. The foreigners with their fifty languages and histories, with their fifty blood hatreds and rivalries arrive continuously at Ellis Island. But they won't be like that long. These are the fires of God they've come to these are the fires of God. A fig for your feuds and vendettas! Germans and Frenchmen, Irishmen and Englishmen, Jews and Russians into the crucible with you all! God is making the American."

This is the splendid, sentiment expressed by Israel Zangwill, the great

Russian author-dramatist, through the lips of Walker Whiteside in the

"Melting Pot," now playing in Chicago. So comprehensive are the lines and so subtly does this inspiration possess one that it i3 apparent Israel

Zangwill has given expression tch-the GIIEAT -AMERICAN IDEA. ..Lake

county is glad to be Indiana's melting pot.

Since the foreigners have played 'so 'prominent a , part in the recent

election in Lake' county and the republicans have been universally condemned for encouraging their naturalization, the presentation of the foreigner's idea of his amalgamation into the great American race, that is

now forming, is of interest. ?.?'... :

"The Melting Pot"; tells a story 'of a young Russian Jew who came to

America from Kishenve, where his ' father, mother and brothers and sis

ters were murdered before his very eyes, under the orders of a Russian

bureaucrat, David Quixano, who is the character which Whiteside por

trays, Is compelled to flee from the terrible scene to save his own life and

naturally he goes to America where many of his neighbors have gone and

where he has heard there is religious and political freedom.

There he earns a modest living, playing his violin in a concert hall. He

falls in love with a settlement worker who later proves to be a member of the Russian aristocracy. Just before the consummation of the love

affair the father of his sweetheart comes to America, himself a refugee

driven out by the anarchists, and David Quixano discovers that he is the officer who ordered the terrible slaughter of his family, because of racial

prejudice. Despite the fact of this discovery, David Quixano has become imbued , with., such, an abiding faith in America as the great melting pot that he forgets his own prejudices and hatreds and marries the woman he

loves. The melting pot had claimed a Russian Jew and a Russian Christian, Here, surely, was an amalgamation of apparently heterogeneous materi

als brought about under the light of the great statue of liberty in the

harbor of New York City.

It is true, America is the melting pot where all of the Caucasian races

of the world are being amalgamated. ' At the present time certain citizens

of America, with an overwhelming and ofttimes mistaken sense of their own superiority, treat with disdain and contumely the foreigners who are being thrown headlong, into the crucible when in many cases they are

themselves still, warm from, the melting pot. But in a hundred years the evolution of the American will have been completed and when seen from the perspective of the years will be regarded as the greatest human amalgamation since the dawn of history. What if a hundred Slavs or a dozen Hungarians or a few Poles were given the inspiration of American citizenship a few years before they deserved it? What if some of the millions who come to our shores do sometimes prove themselves unworthy of the opportunity which America offers to the persecuted of all lands? Are we to einpty the crucible? Are the fires under the melting pot to be extinguished? It will not be many years before the peanut politicians and the disillusioned journalists will be forgotten, but the American race is still in ' the making and iwth the virility which these Russians and Slavs and Huns will impart to counteract the effect of a few generations of old world imbeciles, the product of parasite inheritors, a race will be developed which in a hundred years from now will be the marvel of tho world. "Cattle" they call them; and yet it is only a few years back to the dark ages. Zangwill, in darkest Russia, has seen the light from the statue of liberty.

The history of the world has been made by migratory peoples. The great Aryan race, split by influx through Himalayan passes into the valleys

of the Punjah and Ganges, and southwestward into what was the country

of the Mede and Persian, ultimately spread over the world. The ancient Greek, the Roman and the Teuton were all supplanted by swarms of redblooded, uncouth barbarians. The rapacious Goth and Var.dal tribes that swept down on that luxurious nation whose empire Romulus founded on the

hills near the Tiber, where a shewolf suckled him, are, as time goes, but a

step from the hordes that are today crossing the sea to free America where in years, that are but a drop in time, they are swallowed up amongst its peoples. And down at Crown Point they are fussing over a petty election

contest to stop a world movement

INDIAN DIVORCES. The Indians of South Dakota have cheerfully accepted some of the conreniences of our civilization. Among these are the white man's divorce laws, which the Indians cherish as a means of culture and uplift. A correspondent tells of a Sioux buck

who walked into a lawyer's office at Chamberlain demanding; a divorce. He wore a huge sombrero, greasy and dirty, with a pair of overalls flapping

about the ankles and a blue checked

cotton Jumper soiled by weeks of wear.

The Sioux, unable to speak English,

made known bis desires through an in

terpreter. He said his squaw had six

husbands previously to marrying him.

The lawyer filed an application for divorce on the plea of "Incompatibil

ity."

Eagle Boy hoped the lawyer would

hurry, as he had already selected a

new wife the squaw of another In dian who had applied for a divorce.

When he got tired of the new wife,

he volunteered the information, he

would get another in the same manner.

The smiles of Eagle Boy plainly indi

cated that he thought the whole proce

dure a lot of good fun.

Formerly when an Indian grew tired

of his squaw he sold her to some one else for a pony or a blanket or a bag of flour. Now he is civilized. He con

sults a divorce lawyer and sells her

just the same.

The marriage custom is also changed.

The buck selects his wife according to

tribal precedent, but immediately starts with her for the nearest Justice of the peace or missionary and gets the sanc

tion of the law. Marriage or divorce

it is all the same to the discriminating

aborigine.

Lo, the poor Indian, is up to date

The tribes, it is said, point with pride

to young braves who have had four or

five wives and been freed from them by law.

And why not? The smart set of the east find the

Dakota divorce statutes convenient to them and travel long distances to avail themselves. The Dakota Indian is for

tunate In having the courts close at hand. And

Is not ."incompatibility" as trying in

a tepee as in a brownstone front on Fifth avenue?

If the white man makes a mockery

ef marriage, what can he expect fronl

a half tame savage?

He was a great favorite of Queen Victoria, and the friendship has been continued by King Edward and Queen Alexandria. Tostl's most famous song, "For Ever and

FADS AND FASHIONS.

A new fabric that looks like directoire satin, but Is more warm and supple, is satin-finished cashmere, and It Is to be had in all the popular shades. Cord belts are the latest wrinkle in girdles. These come In almost any standard sade and are fastened in front with a huge colored stone in barbaric design. A few highly fashionable women have ventured to wear sleeves of different materials, one of the fabrio used in the dress, and the other ot chiffon cloth, lace or net. All white, even for young girls, la

not In high favor this season. If ths gown is white there is -sure to b a touch of color in the sash or at th throat In the yoke trimming. Many women have the mistaken idea that the present faahionabla dress which seemd extreme at first, is trying to the figure, but. truth to tell, it 1., exactly the reverse. A new idea in sideboard and bureau covers is English eyelet work on heavy white linen with lndets of Irish

crochet and Irish edging to match, and finished off with tassels.

It was at first thought that the re

turn of the long sleeve meant the doom of the bracelet, but this favorite of

fashion has very happily adapted itself to changed conditions.

Blouses of colored net to wear with tailored suits are made over white, lining, tucked all over, and finished off

with collar and cuffs of pompadour silk in the same shade as the net-

Ruchlngs flure as one of the most becoming fads of the season. They are plaited very full and fall over the tops of the high collars, suggesting a picture from the Elizabethan era. The one-piece gown which . is built on redlngote lines, and as a fact serves for theater and afternoon reception costume under fur coats, is one of the leading favorites of the season. An effective way to give a delicate, note of colar to a waist Is to run rows of fiat floss silk through the meshes in paralled lines for the yoke, collar and cuffs. Black and white waists may

be treated in this way.

Pretty lounging robes for mid-winter

are cut in kimona style from silk and wool blankets. These blankets come

In pink and white, blue and white, and. prettiest of all, dull green and white plaids and stripes.

Unique in character are the necklaces made of bridges taken from oldtime watches of English workmanship. The bridges are all different and must be matched up In size, the hand-carving giving them a charming individuality.

The collar Is cut in many gores, flares out and shews bright little touches of the red at the

ON TRIAL FOR MURDER. Newark, N. J., Jan. 6. The case ef Mrs. Josephine Amore, the Italian woman charged with the murder of Michael Martello. was called for trial in the criminal court today. The alleged murder occurred early In August last and attracted much attention at the time. Martello, a boss painter and married, was shot down in the Amore home in Drift street, death ensuing in a few minutes. At first Mrs. Amores husband, who has since disappeared, was suspected by the police of the murder, but while he was being questioned by the police the wife appeared and confessed that it was she who had

committed the deed. According to the woman's confession she ahd long been annoyed by the attentions Martello forced upon her. Finally, goaded to desperation and fearful for her own life, she decided to wreak swift vengeance on the man, who, she alleges, had tried te force her to forsake honor a&4 family to flee with him.
