SOCIALISTS ATTACK THE PROGRESSIVES

H. L. Spink Denounced Gierluf Jensen and the Bull Moose Platform. The Socialist meeting held yesterday afternoon in the high school hall under the auspices of the local organization, pursuant to an order from the national Socialist committee which set aside yesterday for the purpose of a national celebration of their principles, was generally attended. "It was presided over by Charles W. Lynn, local organizer. " H. L. Spink, candidate for prosecuting attorney on the county Socialist ticket, was the first speaker. While the purpose of the meeting was announced as educational, Mr. Spink's remarks concerned themselves almost wholly with the political aspect of socialism and its superiority over that of the other three dominant political parties. Mr. Spink referred several times to Mr. Jensen, congressional candidate dn the Progressive ticket, who, in speaking to a group of men a week or so since advocated the minimum wage scale for women, which met with the speakers disapprobation, Mr. Spink speaking derisively of this phase of Progressive propaganda. Mr. Spink's address was chiefly given over to denouncing the evils of capitalism rather than to explaining the merits of collectivism, the great socialistic doctrine. Rer. H. L. Haywood followed with an interesting and erudite exposition of the principles of socialism and a resume of its activities. He referred to the number of . celebrated and distinguished men in all departments of life who had embraced the doctrines of socialism, especially referring to William Morris, the English artist and poet, and Bernard Shaw, the famous author and playwright. Mr. Haywood stated that, while he approved of much in the platform of the Progressives, he could not consistently support that party because he did not think it got at the cause of the universal social unrest. , Water Bills due October 1st. 3-10t ABUSES HORSE A complaint was registered at police headquarters late this afternoon by Elmer Hawkins of Butler street, that a huckster, wh6 was selling wares on the west side, severely abused his horse by beating the animal with a club and throwing stones at it. Officer Lawler was sent to the scene, but arrived too late to capture the culprit. The huckster was reprimanded by residents of Grant street for his treatment of the horse and he then cursed and abused the persons- who tried to prevent him. He was beating the animal with one hand and trying to drive with the other when the wagon upset. He then . was informed that a complaint had been made against him and did not stop to gather hl3 warea but drove toward the city. Y. M. C. A. NOTES The formal opening of the Bible classes of the Y.

No man will inter a house or remain In one if he hears a baby crying, for the simple reason that he knows that some one will be about The small doe, we may add, is also a burglar alarm, and there Is a story told of Sir Walter Scott and a burglar. The author of "Waver ley" had defended a reteran cracksman, and in gratitude he gave his counsel a little advice. It ran something in this way: 'You are a rising sun, but I am going (own. The best way to frighten housebreakers is to have a small dog bout He'll always be on the alert and is better than the ordinary watchlog." London M. A. P. The Sphinx's Riddle. The riddle which the sphinx propounded to the Thebans and the solution of which she made a condition of ier withdrawal from the state was as follows: "What animal has one voice, tt first four, then two and at last three feet?" Oedipus discovered the answer to be "man." who In infancy, from asing his hands as well as his feet in walking, may be said to have four feet (all fours.), in after life employs !ut two. and iu old age to these he idds n staff, which may be reckoned a third. Upon this solution being given the sphinx is said to have thrown herself headlong from the citadel. Nol Alwaya. -. "Don't yon think." she asked, "that an old man who marries a young woman makes a great mistake?" "Not necessarily." be replied. "One in awhile a young woman who marries an old man lets him go on baring the use of his money till the end." fndge. .

THE WORD PARADISE Its Earliest Meaning Was an Inclosed Pleasure Ground. The earliest meaning of the word paradise appears to have been a walled in pleasure ground. In the Hebrew It was "perdes," in the Persian "ferdus," and from one or other of these the Greeks appear to have derived the word "paradelsos," from which we get our own word. We also know that the ancient monarchs of Chaldea and Assyria and also of Egypt constructed vast inclosures of forest land for the preservation of wild animals kept for hunting purposes, and these were also called paradises. Thus the historical meaning of the word comes to this: A space protected from all incursion from the outer world, in which those who were privileged to enter were able to indulge in such pleasures as pleased the fancy. It is easy to see the translation from the material to the spiritual meaning, paradise in the latter sense meaning the place of the elect or chosen. This is strikingly borne out by the fact that the favorite battlecry of the Moslems, whose firm belief It is that those who die fighting go straight to heaven, was always "Fight! Fight! Paradise! Paradise!" And the strong probability Is that they got the word from the Per sian campaigns of the eighth century. The use of the word in its present form in the New Testament is of Greek origin, and its description, as applied to the garden of Eden is probably of Hebrew origin, dating from the period of the captivity. MILLETS SKETCHES. The Painter Didn't Value Thsm and Let Thorn Co Cheap. I sold Sensier a quantity of Millet's sketches, and this is how I got them. I went into his studio one morning and found the servant making a fire with pieces of paper that looked as if they had pencil marks on them. I examined them more closely and, seeing that they were the painter's sketches, began to upbraid her for what she was doing, but she very coolly told me that her master had told her to burn up the papers. I could hardly contain myself with astonishment, when in came Millet, and I began to reproach him for the destruction of what I knew would sooner or later bring money. To all of which he calmly replied: "Ah, they are good for nothing. I have got out of them all I want." Just then I noticed a ile of paper in the corner, and I looked It over and found that It consisted of sketches. "What will you take for the lot?" 1 asked. "Anything yon have a mind to give," said Millet "Will 300 francs be enoughr "Oh, yes." I handed him the money and took the sketches home and counted 800! Soon after I sold them to Sensier, who mounted them carefully and set to work to sell them. From this one can get some idea of the endless preliml nary study Millet gave to the preparation of a picture. Charles Jacque In Century. . .

ALLEGED DYNAMITE FUNDJSJHARGED Government Seeks to Prove It Was in the Control of J. J. McNamara.

(National News Association) INDIANAPOLIS. Oct. 14. J. J. McNamara's $1,000 a month emergency organization fund, for which the government claimed no accounting was required, and alleges constituted the bank roll from which was met the expense entailed by dynamiting non union construction work, held the attention of the jury and attorneys in the federal dynamite conspiracy case today. Mrs. A. J. Hull, of Kimball, Neb., formerly bookkeeper in the headquarters of the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers identified stubs of check books, showing that that amount was turned over to McNamara each month for organization purposes. These check books formed part of the document which District Attorney Miiler alleges were turned over to the government by Herbert S. Hockins, the present secretary-treasurer, during the federal investigation last spring and for which act Miller denounced Hockins as a double-crosser of his companions in the dynamite conspiracy. Mrs. Hull was bookkeeper for McNamara In 1910 and declared that the union books never were balanced during her -employment there. She identified about 300 canceled checks which were indorsed by J. J. McNamara and F. M. Ryan, and had the letters "E. S." on them, which Mrs. Hull testified designated emergency fund. CHARGES DISMISSED Judge Fox today sustained the motion to dismiss the charges against Robert J. Mendenhall filed several months ago. Lulu Mendenhall recently secured a divorce and the custody of their child. The charges were wife and child desertion.

HIS BAPTISM OF FIRE. The Senaation Waa Different From What He Expected. A curious story of a Lieutenant Harford of the Ninety-ninth regiment, who served in a Zulu campaign, is told by Colonel Hamilton Browne in "A Lost Legionary In South Africa." "He was a charming companion, one of the very best, but he was a crazy motha nd beetle hunter and would run about on the hottest days with a landing net to catch butterflies and other Insects. He, moreover, collected and treasured snakes, scorpions and loathsome beasts of all sorts. He had never been under fire before and had on two or three occasions talked to me about a man's feelings while undergoing bis baptism of fire. "Well, we were in rather a hot corner, and he was standing to my right rear when, I heard an exclamation, and, turning round, saw him lying on the ground, having dropped his sword and revolver. " 'Good heavens, Harford.' 1 said, you are hit!' " 'No, sir,' he replied, 'not hit, but I have caught such a beauty!' "And there the lunatic, in his first action and under a heavy fire, his qualms of nervousness all forgotten, had captured some microbe or other and was blowing its wings out, as unconscious of the bullets striking the rocks all round him as if be had been in his garden at home!"

EMPIRES VICTORIOUS Defeat Waldorfs in Baseball at Athletic Park. About 100 people saw the Waldorfs go down in defeat before the Empires at the Athletic park yesterday afternoon. The contest; which was interesting at times, resulted in the score of 9 to 7. Eight hits were accredited each team. It was a case of wlldness on the part of Roop, who started the game for the Waldorfs and of swiftness on the part of "Red" Evans who finished it. This is given as the reason for the Waldorf's defeat. Roop hit three men, two in the first inning. Roop was jerked at the end of the fourth inning and Evans, who was put in, was too swift for Catcher Denny. Evans, however, struck out twelve men and allowed only1 three hits in the five innings he played. Albright, for the Empires played a stellar part on the mound for the Empires. LAD LEFT HOME WITHOUT PERMISSION Smith Hoover, the lad Injured on the Pennsylvania railroad last week, left home without the permission of his parents.

They were strolling down the Rambla and met two street mendicants, one of whom was singing while the other begged. Gayarre was touched at their wretched appearance and suggested giving them a couple of louls, but changed his mind and said that be might do better still. "I will sing and you shall go round to collect the money. Nobody will ever have beard me sing so cheaply, and the contributions will be a-charity. Let us begin at once." No sooner said than done. The celebrated tenor asked the poor singer for his repertoire and then attacked the grand air of "La Travlata." Scarcely had the first notes been beard before a crowd began to assemble, and a whisper went round: "It is he! It is Gayarre." The applause was tremendous, and as an encore he sang "11 Barblere dl Siviglia," finishing up with a popular Spanish song. The enthusiasm then broke all bounds, and Schurmann, having filled his own bat, had to borrow Gayarre's. The contents, amounting to a little over $185. were then poured into the hands of the astonished and grateful musicians, and the two improvised street performers had the greatest difficulty in forcing their troy back to the hotel, where Gayarre remarked: "Well, I hope you are pleased with the takings. As for me, I have never sung with so much pleasure. It is good to help others." The Better Way. "It la better to trust and be deceived than to be suspicious of everybody. "Yes, but it'issjust as well as a rule to keep your bank account in your wife's name if you are going o do any widespread trusting. Chicago Record-Herald.
