But I'm afraid they cheat at cards." "Nonsenser "I knew you'd say that, and it's dear of you to Do so unsuspecting. Butwell, what was the price of the chips tonight? Five cents each? That's what I thought Jim. I examined those chips carefully, god they're the very same tilng that I could have bought at Jones' store for a dollar a hundred, in all three' colors too!"

A Lull

For the next two weeks, the water works situation will be somewhat quiet from all that we can learn. The regular city business has been held up by the board of works and the council in order to give full attention to the proposed contracts. The board has work outside the city in inspecting street flushing and the like. And the board wishes time to go into the water works question thoroughly. The Palladium has every assurance that the city will enter into an investigation of the books of the company and conduct an investigation on oath as permitted by the statutes of 1909. It is apparent that this will have to be done before the proposed contracts or any subsequent questions are acted on. The Palladium makes this statement of the case in order that the citizens of Richmond who have taken such an interest in the equitable settling of this question shall know what the state of affairs is and that no one is allowing it to go by the boards.

The Chautauqua

The Chautauqua is now a fixed Institution in America. Its purpose has become obvious and each year has seen the growth of the assemblies. , Starting at Lake Chautauqua years ago, the Idea has spread, carrying with it the ideals and purpose of the founders. Today there are not only hundreds, but thousands of these Chautauquas all over the country. They have become an integral part in every community. This year will probably be the last year for the Chautauqua at the Glen and its going, far from meaning extinction, will be marked with a new period of development when it goes to the Hawkins addition. That this movement should have had the steady support of this city and have grown simultaneously with the desire to add to the park system of the town means that the fundamental principles of the Chautauqua are for progress. ' And this is easily believed when the great body of Chautauqua platform speakers are reviewed. Men like Judge Ben Lindsey and LaFollette have become Identified with this movement of the people to work toward better things. It is not alone the relaxation of the body which is gained, nor the mere gathering together of many people, but more than that the realization that minds and bodies need the healthful stimulation of being turned into new channels more than relaxation. People are accustomed to call this sort of a vacation "a change." The roots of the matter are a part of that subtlest of problems the problem of psychological change on the tissues of mind and body. It is very much like the effect of music on the mind and body. That along with the growth of the movement have come such things as gymnastic exercises for old and young, the Boy Scout movement the 6tudy of domestic science and the discussion of great economic principles has stamped it as progressive. The Chautauqua this year, as before, will give half its proceeds to the Y. M. C. A. But the reason for the continued support of the Chautauqua is far different from anything of that sort. It is simply an added reasou. The Chautauqua needs no excuse except its own.

NEW COUNTRY CLUB CHEF BEGINS WORK

President Bond opened the meeting

of the members of the Country club

at 8:20 last night. A discussion of several matters of interest to the members followed, and reports were heard from two of the directors. The coming of the club's new chef was the cause of much favorable comment among the members during the evening. He started on bis new duties Monday, but last night was the first time he served any dinners. All who dined at the club were delighted with the meals, and the chef has already acquired quite a reputation.

A Surprise For Horace Gree fey. - In the early days of the suffragist movement Miss Susan B. Anthony had no more bitter opponent than Horace Greeley, It was for a long time his custom to wind up all debates with the conclusive remark. "The best women 1 know do not want to vote." When the New York constitution was being altered iu 186? Miss Anthony laid a train for him. She wrote to Mrs. Greeley aud persuaded' the editor's wife not only to sign a' petition for woman's suffrage herself, but to circulate the paper and get 300 signatures among her acquaintances. In tbe committee Mr. Ureeley, who was chairman, had listened to the debate and prepared to Introduce to tbe convention an adverse report. He was Just about to utter bis usual "settler" when George Wltlinm Curtis rose. "Mr. Chairman." said he. "I bold in my hand a petition for suffrage signed by 300 women of Westchester, headed by Mrs. Horace Greeley." The chairman's embarrassment could hardly be controlled. He had found at least one of "tbe best women 1 know" wanted to vote, but be re venged himself . later upon tbe leader by scathing editorials.

One of Curran'a Witticisms. Ourran once had as colleague in a case a remarkably tall and slender man, who bad originally intended to take holy orders. When tbe judge ob served that tbe case involved a ques tlon in ecclesiastical law. Curran said. "I can refer your lordship to tbe high authority behind me, who was once Intended for the church, though in my opinion he is fitter for the steeple."

The tobacco fields of Slam embrace six thousand acres. .

TWO TENTS PMCED AT THE CHAUTAUQUA

Two unusually progressive families in this city have decided not to

wait for the crowd to assemble before starting their preparations for the Chautauqua. Secretary Myfick says that two tents have already been put up, and are ready for occupancy. The work of fencing in the grounds commenced this morning, and before the week is over the whole place will be enclosed.

BUZZARDS' NESTS. a. The Same Ones Are Rarely Used Two Consecutive Seasons. Tbe flight of the buzzard is as well nigh perfection as is possible to find. In fact, be might be called the most perfect aeroplane in existence. To see him soaring between the bare hills, with a vast green fertile valley below him and with the spring sun lighting up his brown plumage as he slowly sails around with outspread pinions, Is a sight never to be forgotten. The buzzard usually chooses a ledge on a cliff for an eyrie, but in certain parts of Wales there are a few well used nests in trees, and as tbey are generally used by some bird of prey each season tbey grow to an enormous size. Tbe buzzard does not, as a rule, use the same nest two consecutive seasons,, but returns to it the third, and after that allows 'another season to elapse before occupying it again. Two nests are often constructed in one dingle, and an amusing incident happened a few years ago in one of these places. The hen laid one egg In each nest. and. as it was quite impossible for her to sit on both at once, we did ber a good turn by placing one of these eggs in the nest with Its companion. The i result of our kindness was that a collector passed by about two hours afterward and put both eggs In his collecting box. When I thought the matter over 1 came td the conclusion that that old buzzard was not half such a fool as we took her to be. and if we bad left the eggs as we round them the bird might have had a chance of rearing one youngster.

Before the day of steel for writing purposes England was importing more than twenty-five million quills each year for pens.

Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE. Copyrht, 1908, by Edwin A. Nye

JACK LONDON GETS

A KNOCKOUT

PUNCH

SARAH MOORE. PATRIOT. One of tbe constant needs of humans is the Inspiring example of noble deeds. And that is why tbe story of Sarah W. Moore is worth while. Where most people see in a group of Italian workingmen a "lot of dagoes" Miss Moore saw in them brothers in need. About ten years ago Miss Moore, a woman without Influence or wealth, undertook to do something for the incoming aliens who land in such numbers at New York. She selected as the object of her labors the most despised and rejected of these the Italian laborers. , Because of her persistent efforts the Society For Italian Immigrants was organized, which society has accomplished a world of good. And then Not satisfied with this society, which greets and cares for the ignorant immigrants from Italy, Miss Moore turned her attention toward making these aliens into good citizens. During the building of tbe New York aqueduct, the great artificial -waterway by which the city gets its water, thousands of Italian laborers have been employed. These gangs live in camps such as one sees when railroads are being built. Manners and men are in tbe rough. In these crude camps Miss Moore opened camp schools for the education of the Italians. Repeatedly told by the water commissioners and the contractors that schools would not be permitted, Miss Moore persisted and succeeded. Moreover It is told of her that in writing the little primer which she printed for the use of the workmen she learned the words which the men needed to know by sitting on the bank of an excavation and listening to the orders given. Stricken with paralysis, Miss Moore continued to the tiire of her death to inspire the yo'iagr women teachers who were her helpers. Tiers was a patriotic mission. If the melting pot of America is finally to fuse into one citizenship the dissimilar elements that are cast into it for the melting it must be by such

sacrificing labors as those cf Sarah W.

Moore, patriot. X AndAlthough there were no great bead-

lines in the newspapers the day after

this heroic woman died, whose life better deserved such notice?

Not Interrupting at All. At the piano Mrs, Eaton was guiding Edith and Edward and Jack through the intricacies of an old English melody when she became' aware that tbe twins were adding their voices from an indiscreet distance and stopped playing. "Children." she exclaimed, "you are not allowed to join in the chorus with Edith and Edward V "We weren't," the twins protested, in slightly resentful tones. "We were singing something quite different." Youth's Companion.

Shakespeare Altered. A portable theater had been pitched in an out of the way spot where the prospective theatrical patrons were unsophisticated in matters dramatic. The players possessed the costumes for "Hamlet" and Shakespeare's tragedy was- selected for representation. It then occurred to tbe proprietors of tbe show that tbe name migbt not attract, so they altered the title to "llow the Stepfather Was Paid Out!" London Mail.

Red Blood Novelist Trimmed by "Abyssmal Brute," a -

Lumber Magnate. SAN FRANCISCO. Cal., Aug 16.

From Eureka comes the news that

Jack London has been fighting again.

Comes likewise the news that London has been licked, which, by the

way, is getting to be an old. old story. ,

This time it was not a saloonkeep- '

er who laid the author low, as was the case a few months ago in Oakland. It

was William H. Murphy, Jr., son of

one of the lumber magnates of northern California, who made London mea

sure the boards after having beaten

him to it with a punch.

The fight had a "low brow" setting.

It took place in a saloon. London and

his wife have been in Eureka at the home of former Mayor Ricks, where he met Murphy. The two men did

not fall into raptures over each other. Eureka's abyssmal brute conversation says there was bad blood between

them.

Abyssrrjal Brute Stirred. In the "saloon their conversation took

a personal turn. Possibly Murphy had

a different view of protoplasms, or perhaps the Murphy cosmos and the London cosmos didn't jibe. At any rate, Mr. Murphy jabbed Mr. London squarely in the countenance. The Abyssmal brute in London leaped to quick response. He retaliated.

The author waded in with the determination of the victor in the famous fight with "Cheese Face" that makes the reddest of red blood episodes In his own "Martin Eden." But spectators were too many, and before any serious bodily harm was inflicted the belligerents were separated and cautioned to be good. Then Mrs. London packed her belongings and left the Ricks residence in a hurry, sailing for San Francisco on the first steamer. Mr. London

sought other lodgings and kept in seclusion. Leaves Impression on Author. It was not as sanguinary an encounter as one of those described in the "Abyssmal Brute, In which Mr. London says of the defeated pugilist: "After that they put eleven stitches in his mouth and packed him off in an ambulance. It left its Impression however, on London-s face and his opinion of Eureka. The author is expected to return to his residence at Glen Ellen within a few days. Eureka is nervously expectant of the next London novel. It expects to see a lumber king playing the heavy villain to learn something of the lumber industry, and to see the aforesaid villan properly mauled by the hero.

"Address on Advertising" By William O. Freeman, "The Exponent of Clean Advertising" given at the Convention of the Associated Advertisers Clubs of America, in Boston, Mass., last week.l (NEWSPAPERDOM) (Continued from Tuesday) "Business in that suburban community thrived. Many people in the community did not know that their local merchants could supply their need so well until they read their advertisements in their home weekly newspaper then they stopped going into the city to shop as frequently as before. The lesson I learned in that suburban town was that advertising in a small weekly newspaper in a suburban town, where everybody also read a daily newspaper, paid. "My next step was to represent a big daily newspaper in a big city, the city being Philadelphia. I found the merchants in that city to be a little more consequential than the merchants in the smaller communities. They thought they were pretty big pumpkins in the commercial world. They told me that advertising in the city was different from advertising in the country town. It was hard work to convince them that human nature in the city was about the same as human nature in the country, but many of them started to use human-interest copy, nevertheless, with the result that the display advertising in all of the newspapers increased tremendously. "However, the work of all of the advertising men in Philadelphia did not accomplish nearly as much in the development of more display advertising as did the human interest advertising of John Wanamaker. It was John Wanamaker's faith in newspaper advertising, his faith in the kind of newspaper advertising that talked out in meeting to the people, that surred up all of the merchants of Philadelphia. Philadelphia, as you know, sets the whole country a good example in the volume and character of the advertising printed in her newspapers. "I have learned that whenever merchants realize that their advertising must be human, must be full of interest, must be instructive, must be impelling, they then begin to get maximum results from it. Newspaper advertising never fails if the copy embodies these four important points. The lesson I learned in Philadelphia was mighty helpful to me in the work I cut out for myself later on in New York City, where I have been for nineteen years " . (To be continued)
