THE RICHMOND TALLADIU3I AND SUN-TELEGRAM, FRIDA F, AUGUST 2, 1912,

THE LAST DAYS OF POMPEII WHS A MAGNIFICENT SIGilT A Wonderful and Dazzling Display of Pyrotechnics Thrills Crowd of Three Thousand People.

(Continued from Page One.) union of form and color and fascinates through its erratic movement. The world is one big child when gazing at spectacles of this character. This part of the entertainment was opened by a general illumination and the ascent of the "Washington" rockets which, as the program stated, blended into one "continuous effect" although""fired from different points." Followed by the discharge of great bomb-shells with extraordinary tintings and wonderful luminosity. Roosevelt Popular. The Pain fireworks artist shows great versatility of invention and fecundity of conception in the wonderful scale of forms shown in this pyrotechnic medium, but none greater than "Colonel Teddy Roosevelt in Africa," which shows the "greatest of them all' on the jungle firing-line discharging his deadly instrument of destruction toward giraffes, lions, teddy-bears and other animals familiar to the habitues of circuses and the ten cent emporiums. This was what is sometimes termed a "clever conceit" and was the hit of the evening. Beautiful was the great American Beauty rose with its buds and foliage and programmed as "The Last Rose of Summer" but not more so than the "Aerial Wheat Sheaf" the "Aerial Rose Garden" and "Aladdin's Jeweled Tree," all of marvelous makeup. "Tho Mikado's Fan" both closed and opened was one of te most admired effects of the evening although the reproduction of the Horse-Shoe Falls was more brilliant and appealed to the audience most of whom have visited this famous freak of nature. The "grand finale" in which two hundred large exhibition rockets were fired simultaneously topped off an exhibition splendid and brilliant and which delighted thousands of persons who had gone out to see it. The Commercial Club is to be congratulated on the successful inauguration of this series of three entertainments which are, in certain phases, incomparable of their sort. The thousands that attended last evening will no doubt be duplicated this evening and tomorrow if the weather is propitious. The inclusion of the Richmond City Band in the program gave local interest to the affair, the band, under the leadership of Frank Hartzler, acquitting Itself with honor. Statu With Umbrella. Some poor art is to be seen In this country in the shape of statues dedicated to the memory of great men, but Do American enormity In this line quite equals that which was perpetrated by fin English sculptor for the town of Heading. When the fellow townsmen of a certain George Palmer of that place decided to honor his memory they determined upon a bronze statue of Palmer, which should be not merely a portrait as to features, but a correct presentment of him as he appeared among them every day. Accordingly, the stranger In Reading Is startled by the most unconventional of statues. vrlth every crease and wrinkle of the homely attire of the original reproduced. To complete the effect the statue is bareheaded, with silk hat and umbrella In hand. It is thought that this is the only Instance In which the necessary but not entirely beautiful umbrella has been reproduced in bronze. New York Sun. He Fooled Her. "If you were asked to get ready to tart next Thursday on a long Journey do you think you could do so?" asked ber rich employer, who was a widower. "Oh. I much would depend upon the kind of journey it was to be," she replied. "I mean a pleasant journey a Journey that would last for a month or more." "And should I have company on the Journey?" "Well, I hadn't thought of that No, 1 don't believe you would. I should expect you to go alone." "Then I don't believe I could get ready." she said turning to her typewriter and making four mistakes in "'.a first line of the letter she had beChicago Record-Herald. Melody Becomes Malady.

OCTOBER im IS TUBERCULOSIS DAY Local 'Churches and Religious Societies Urged to Observe Day. Churches and religious bocieties in this city will be urged to give special attention to the prevention of tuberculosis on Sunday, October 271 h, or on some day during the week preceding or the week following tn.it date. This season has been set apart and designated as the Third National Tuberculosis Day by the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, which makes this announcement today. Tuberculosis Day was originally set on April 28th, but was postponed because of a conflict with Conservation Sunday of the Men and Religion Forward Movement, whJch was held on that date. The observance of Tuberculosis Day in the Fall this year will be utilized by anti-tuberculosis workers not only for the general education of churchgoers on consumption, but also for the purpose of interesting them in the sale of Red Cross Christmas Seals. Every one of the 600 and more antituberculosis associations allied with the National Association will be urged to promote Tuberculosis Day in their respective communities. While last year over 50,000 churches observed this occasion, it is expected this year that this number will be doubled. Millions of circulars and other forms of literature will be distributed. The support of every religious "denomination will be asked for. That tuberculosis is a serious problem among church congregatons is evidenced by statistics which the National Association gathered last year, which show that 10 per cent, of all deaths among church members are caused by tuberculosis. Based on these figures and on the mortality statistics of the Census Bureau, over 52,000 of tne 33,000,000 communicants in churches in the United States de from tuberculosis every year. This figure assumes that the death rate of 1.60 per 1,000 population in the Registration Area applies to all churchgoers, when as a matter of fact, the rate would probably be higher.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE. How to Cook Various Kinds of Summer Vegetables. Carrots a la Poulette. Wash and scrape carrots and cut in small cubes. There should be two cupfuls. Remember that the best flavor as well as the brightest color lies nearest the skin, for which reason they should never be pared. Cover with boiling water and let stand five minutes. Drain and cook in boiling salt water to cover until soft. Melt three tablespoonfuls of butter, add three tablespoonfuls of flour and stir until well blended; then pour on gradually, while stirring constantly, one cupful of chicken stock (the liquor in which a fowl has been cooked) and one-half cupful of rich milk or cream. Bring to the boiling point and add carrot cubes and one-half teaspoonful of lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. As soon as thoroughly heated add the yolks of two eggs, slightly beaten. Turn into a hot vegetable dish, garnish with a sprig of parsley and serve at once, says Woman's Home Companion. Peas when fresh, young and tender are most delicious and should be cooked right from the vine to be at their best. They are often almost ruined In the cooking by using too large a quantity of water. There should be little, if any, water to drain off when they are done: then, again, the salt had better not be added until the last ten minutes of the cooking. Peas that have lost much of their natural sweetness are improved by a bit of sugar. Peas a la Francaise. Cook three tablespoonfuls of butter with one slice bacon five minutes. Remove bacon and add two cupfuls of shelled peas and eight small onions. Cover with boiling water and cook until vegetables are soft. Drain and add one-fourth cupful of cream and one egg yolk, slightly beaten. Season with salt and pepper. HOW TO BEAUTIFY A PORCH. A List of Good Climbers For Your Selection. Nature uses vines to hide her defects. Man has borrowed the practice, which Is to his credit. Nature' hides tree stumps and rock heaps under festoons of shimmering green. Outbuildings, unpainted fences and rubbish heaps may be hidden in the same way. Many climbing vines are beautiful in leaf and flower. Grown over trellises, porches and arbors, they provide shelter and shade. The list of really good climbers Is not overlong. For permanent locations perennials are preferable, and among the most common is the Virginia creeper, or woodbine, which grows very rapidly and will cling to walls of any kind. In the fall the leaves turn a brilliant scarlet or crinion. The plants are cheap. Fifteen cents will buy one. The trumpet creeper and the wistaria are also good vines to grow over buildings. The former has splendid dark red, trumpet-like blossoms, which last a long time. This plant is not a very rapid grower, but Is well worth planting. The grandiflora variety is the one to order. The wistaria makes the finest show of any of the vines. The vines grow to an immense height, but the plant needs a little petting. Give It a sunny location, strong soil and an occasional enrichment of manure, and it will delight your heart. For a dense screen there Is nothing better than Dutchman's pipe, which has leaves almost as large as elephants ears. The curious little flowers, which really amount to little, give It Its name. The leaves come early and stay late. fact which recommends It for many situations. It must be grown on a trellis or given a sup port of some kind.

PLATFORM ADOPTED

The Pogressive party of Indiana believes that the people should rule and that their demands should be respected and complied with; that denial of just demands is a denial of free government; that the Republican and Democratic party organizations have become fossilized into rigid machines controlled by political adventurers acting for special interests and controlling all of the machinery of government to the extent that the people no longer have any voice therein and their just demands are disregarded. To the end, therefore, that the people may have freer and better government, that they may possess the power to control party organization, that they may enforce their will through their representatives, secure justice and the enjoyment of political and industrial equality, we present the following demands, to the accomplishment of which we promise unflinching and tireless effort: 1. The initiative, whereby a certain reasonable percentage of the voters of the state may petition for the submission of a proposed law directly to the people for their approval or rejection. The same principle should be made applicable to smaller districts. 2. The referendum, whereby a stated percentage of the voters may secure the submission of laws passed by the law-making bodies to the whole body of voters for acceptance or rejection. 3. The recall, applied to all elective, executive, administrative and legislative officers. 4. Direct primaries for the nomination of all elective officers and of all officials of party organizations to -be held by all parties on the same day, which day shall be a registration day, these primaries to be governed by the corrupt practices act. 5. The adoption of the proposed amendment to the federal constitution providing for the election of United States senators by direct vote of the people, and in the meantime the adoption of a law similar to the Oregon law, by which the legislators elected by all parties shall be bound by a direct preferential vote for senators. 6. A preferential vote for candidates for President and Vice President. 7. The adoption of a more effective and economical registration act and a corrupt practices act which shall apply to all elections and primaries, including the election of officials of party organizations and of delegates to all conventions. 8. Equal suffrage for women on all questions. 9. A minimum wage for women wage earners. 10. Efficient child labor laws, national and state, and the rigid enforcement thereof. 11. A decided change in state education which shall prepare youth to engage in life work through trade schools and wide-spread industrial and agricultural education: free school books for children in common schools. 12. A public utilities commission, with power to regulate rates, service, capitalization and issuance of securities of public service corporations and to make physical valuation of the property of such corporations, and compel the production of books and records. 13. An act prohibiting corporations from the issuance or sale of watered stock. 14. A workman's compensation act for industrial accidents under which establishment losses shall be settled upon a scale fixed by statute, the worker to have his alternative to pursue his remedy in court. 15. Home rule for cities, with power to adopt their own charters. Until this can be accomplished by constitutional changes we favor the passage of an act granting to cities and towns the option of adopting commission government in lieu of remaining under the present cities and towns act. 16. The application of the competitive merit system to the civil service of the state and of the cities and counties thereof, and the adoption of the PIANO TUNING D. E.

federal registration rules for the labor service. 17. A reform in court procedure whereby technicalities in pleadings, in trials and on appeals shall be eliminated, so that justice shall not be delayed or denied. 18. The creation of a state conservation commission embracing the work of the state geologist, the state entomologist, the bureau of statistics and the state board of forestry. 19. The erection of a state library and archive memorial building in celebration of the centennial of the state in 1916, the Btate having now no adequate place for its priceless historical documents and library. 20. A national income tax, and a state inheritance tax; and In connection with these an expert investigation, followed by a complete reformation of the tax laws of the state, whereby such outrages as are now committed in working out the corporation highway tax shall be rendered impossible: and whereby small properties shall cease to bear more than their proportion of taxes; and whereby as new taxes are added present direct taxes shall be diminished. 21. A revision of the road laws, along the line of state aid and state control of main roads. 22. Liberal pensions to soldiers. 23. Federal regulations of corporations doing an interstate business, under the supervision of an industrial commission with power similar to those of the interstate commerce commission. 24. We hold that the liquor traffic is a moral question and that its solution rests wholly in the moral and religious attitude of the people 4hemselves; that the moral and religious attitude of the people of Indiana can and will be honestly expressed on the liquor question only wnen it is wholly divorced from politics. As a permanent solution we agree to etiact the initiative and .referendum, thro'igh which method a vote of the whole people honestly expressed, without bias or prejudice of party politics, may bo had. In the meantime we favor county local option as a temporary relief. 25. We favor a tariff measured by the difference between the cost of Resinol reliovos sunburn instantly RESINOL Soap and Ointment soothe and cool sunburn, stop the itching of heat rash, ivy or oak poisoning, and insect bites, and quickly restore the skin to perfect health and comfort.

production here and abroad. This la fair to American manufacturers; less than this la unjust to American laborers: more is unjust to American consumers. We demand the immediate creation of a genuine permanent nonpartisan tariff commission, with ample power and definite duties fixed in the law itself; meantime we demand the immediate revision of the Payne-Ald-rich tariff law along the lines of honest protection. 26. We favor the calling of a constitutional convention by the next Legislature, the delegates thereto to be chosen by direct vote of the people on a nonpartisan ballot.
