Justin McCarthy. Juatin McCarthy, whose reputation as statesman, historian, journalist, novelist and orator is world-wide, was born in Cork, Ireland. November 22, 1830. He early mastered the classics, and at 18 was forced to earn his own bread. For several years he was employed as reporter and stenographer on Liverpool and Cork papers until 1860, when he became political editor of the London Star, then owned by John Bright, the celebrated statesman. Later he visited America, lecturing and writing for the magazines. Mr. McCarthy's greatest speech was

made in defense of Parnell during the great leader's fight against the London Times. His greatest literary achievement is "The History of Our Own Times," a chronicle of what has happened in the three countries of the United Kingdom since the beginning of the reign of Queen Victoria. In addition to this and several other works of history, Mr. McCarthy has produced a score or more of popular novels.

RAILWAY BUSINESS ASSOCIATION "FEED"

t.v. Monal New Association) NEW YORK, Nov. 22. Presidents of trade bodies in several score of the principal cities of the country gathered here today for the annual dinner of the Railway Business association, which ia made up of manufacturers of railway equipment and supplies. Heading the list of visitors as the chief speakers at the banquet were Governor Emmet O'Neal of Alabama and Walker D. Hines, chairman of the executive committee of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway company.

Perhaps the performance of the Balalaika orchestra is not an epochmaking event in the history of the town. Perhaps it should go by unnoticed. But it does seem to us that the performances of this kind are about all that separate Richmond from the "Tank Town" class. At the close of the theatrical season last year The Palladium reviewed the theatrical and amusement business in this town and quoted from an article by Walter Prichard Eaton on the subject of bringing good attractions to small towns. We asserted at that time not only on the authority of Mr. Eaton but from the experience of many theatrical managers In smal towns the hazardous nature of bringing good things to a small town. At that time The Palladium urged Mr. Murray to continue the policy of his predecessors so far as he was able in bringing high class productions to Richmond. But in justice to Mr. Murray we did not ask him to lose money on them. We pointed out that it was only by the guarantee system that these things could be brought here. We quoted Mr. Eaton as a competent authority in the case of Public Decency vs. Public Indecency on the burlesque question pointing out that the natural and effective way of driving out poor and tawdry not to say indecent attractions was to encourage good things. If the support of the forces of what is called "good citizenship" is placed behind the legitimate drama and dance and music the result is constructive to the point of destroying what furnishes a legitimate point for protest by even those who are not puritanical. As to the Balalaika orchestra it was the best music that Richmond has heard in many a day and is likely to remain the best for months. There was an audience of enthusistic people whose applause was genuine. The audience was only once removed from being pitiful by its numbers. Obviously such things do not pay under ordinary management. They require extraordinary publicity. They need hard work to be made successful. Isn't it about time that someone was paying some attention to this work of promoting big things? The dividends to the town are self evident. When Cleveland King Chase was here as a professor in Earlham college he assumed a large part of the public service in bringing things like Ben Greet's players to Richmond. And he earned the regard of more than that section of the town which likes to be considered "high brow" though he also earned the buffets of muddle headed ignorance which could not see farther than its nose; which could not see the state of things in Richmond if somebody did not take on the initiative of bringing guaranteed performances here. The work of Miss McVicker In assuming the risk of the Russian dancers Pavlowa and Mordkin when the theater could not by any chance make money on the house if crowded was simply an example of public service. The work of promoting such things must fall on someone but we feel that it is unfair to expect all the work to come from the theater manager. Though when the manager has not done the work any profits should go to the prevention of deficits on the next similar venture. Those who went to the-Balalaika performance last night must know that not many things of similar character will be brought here and it would have been well for a meeting to have been held after the performance with the idea of organizing an association for the purpose of promoting all such future performances. This is the way out. Otherwise there is little hope and no reason for sympathy with a public which does not enter into the constructive work of supporting good attractions, while it can be said of any management that does not co operate that it is not worthy of public support. We believe with the proper interest from all quarters that something can be done to give Richmond a good theatrical booking every year and keeping Richmond from being a "Tank town."

DEMOCRATS HONOR CONG. UNDERWOOD

Blend Getting Scarcer. Scientists are taking a gloomy view of the future of the blond. Not only are fair people becoming fewer, but if this Is not a paradox they are also becoming darker. The future promisee to bring us nothing more Interesting than the "white browns" of humanity. To preserve onr blonds Is scientifically possible, but their continuance would make an end to the progress of civilliation. All or nearly all the conditions of modern life tend to encourage brunettes. Before many decades have passed there will probably only be rare examples of women who are divinely fair.

(National News Association) JACKSON, Miss., Nov. 22. A large oil portrait of the late Bishop Charles B. Galloway, "the mission Bishop of Methodism," was formally presented today to Millsaps college, of which institution he was one of the trustees from the opening of the college until the day of his death. Leading participants in the presentation exercises included Bishop Bratton, of Mississippi, Bishop Candler of Georgia, and Dr. D. C. Hull, president of the college.

Incredible!

President Taft s indorsement of Boss Cox's ticket is the final horror. To support it at all (on the urgence and assurance of a Cox politician!) Mas terrible enough; but to support it against so fitting and courageous a candidate as Hunt really, words fail, and we are driven to punctuation and italics.

What is the President coming to? After such an exhibition can he be even nominated? If there were an election tomorrow, would not Woodrow Wilson carry Ohio against him overwhelmingly? We have been patient with Mr. Taft. The Payne-Aldrich tariff, the Ballinger iniquities, the use of patronage against Insurgents, the wool veto, the retention of Secretary Wilson and Solicitor McCabe, the turning of the Post-Office Department into a still more rigid political machine, the ruin of our relations with South America in spite of blow after blow, we have clung to the hope that the President would improve sufficiently to have a general balance of usefulness to his country.

FRED GEIS. CAPITALIST. Is America another name for oppor tuniry? Freddie Gels of Des Moines. Ia., aged eighteen, newsboy and capitalist, says it is and has proved it He started ten years ago selling

newspapers. Two years ago he bought

sick wife, an old grandmother and two

children.

That is why he started out at 5 o'clock on a cold morning ten years

ago to sell newspapers. His cash capital was 4 cents. Four cents plus! Today be has a regular stand with newspapers and magazines. For a long time his stock In trade was contained in a canvas bag. He pre-empt

When he cries out "Paper, lady!" his band invariably goes to his cap. Behind Fred Geis is a stanch old grandmother. The mother is an Invalid, but the grandmother is a forceful character The young man loves his mother, but he banks on his grandmother, and they do some great team work. The old woman Is thrifty. When the deed to the home was turned over to the family the purchaser carried away $3,000 in email coins a satcbelful of savings. Grandma bas ber doubts about banks.

Immodest and Freakish Clothes are Deplored By Woman as Bar to Suffrage

NEW YORK, Nov. 22. Mrs. Ida Husted Harper, author and lecturer has discovered the reason why New York women haven't the right to vote. "Nothing has done so much harm to suffrage in the last fifty years as the way women have dressed themselves in the last year or two." she told a feminine audience at the Waldorf. "You have aroused general contempt and criticism and have made men say everywhere that you have neither sense nor judgment, and so are not fit to be trusted with the ballot. Your hats especially have made you objects of ridicule and burlesque from one end of the country to the other." Mrs. Harper's indignation had not cooled when a reporter saw her. "No woman who enters a great movement can allow herself the same freedom she enjoyed before," she declared. "She is no longer responsible merely as an individual. She is the embodiment of the cause she represents. Modesty Is Forgotten. "If she is a suffragist whatever silly thing she does is charged up to suffrage by the men. Therefore, I am convinced that that thing has hurt the suffrage cause so much as the way women have dressed or undressed in the last few years. "Their hats alone have made them the laughing stock of the country. These ridiculous objects are without

excuse in either shape or trimming, i

and, and they are made worse by the wearing of long hatpins, which have been such a menace to others that legal relief has been sought all over the land.

"The most influential women have i

worn dresses on the street and in public places in which a woman of the demi-monde would not have appeared a few years ago. They have exposed figures, arms bosoms and ankles in so shameless a way that one is forced to suspect that if they have appeared modest in the past it was only because custom demanded it and from no innate refinement. "Another great evil is the way these society butterflies, are imitated by working girls and women. Their false

estimate of the necessity of dress elaborate beyond their means often leads them to absolute crime." Sheath and Hobble Examples. "What are the features of modern dress to which you particularly object?" "Well." answered Mrs. Harper, "I was never so discouraged over the problems of women as when they adopted the tight fitting skirt, variously known as the 'sheath 'hobble,' or the 'tube.' It seemed to me then that our case was hopeless. I can go down into the slums and see all the poverty and misery there and not feel so discouraged over the outlook. "The law would not allow women to be nearer naked than many of them are now at evening functions, with their dresses cut down to the waist line in the back and nearly there in the front. "If women only wore these clothes at private functions it would not be so reprehensible. But when they appear in the dining rooms of public cafes exposing themselves to the gaze of men of every class and description it makes you wonder where their sense of shame has gone. It makes one

heartsick to see women in offices dressed as they would be at an afternoon tea, either with necks and arms entirely exposed or so thinly covered as to be even more suggestive."
