This is My 51st Birthday

LILLIAN RUSSELL. ' Lillian Russell, noted as actress and Jight opera singer, was born in Clinton, Iowa, Dec. 4, 1861 Her maiden name was Helen Louise Leonard and she 'was educated in a convent school in Chicago, in which city her father was engaged in the printing business. She made her debut in 1879 as a member pt a Pinafore company. For several

roars thereafter she was a popular einger of ballads In Tony Pastor's the-

ter in New York. Fame came to her

hen she joined the McCaull Opera

mpany, of which she continued as

rima donna until the organization of

r own company. Of late years the

rmer opera singer has achieved her

greatest successes as a member of the

Weber and Fields aggregation. Miss Russell has been four times married. Her first husband was Harry Braham, a musical conductor. Her second husband was Edward Solomon, a composer, and ter third, Signor Perugini, a well known operatic tenor. Last June Miss Russell was married to Alexander P. Moore, a Pittsburg newspaper publisher. Congratulations to: . Joseph Letter, capitalist, 44 years old today. Rear Admiral Royal R. Ingersoll, U. S. N retired, 65 years old today. John Mean, former United States senator from New Jersey, 60 years old today. Crown Prince Alexander of Servia, 24 years old today. Samuel P. Brooks, president of Baylor university, 49 years old today.

Dame GossipMurderess. Dame Gossip, that arch lend, committed another murder yesterday, and the records do not show how many hearts she broke, how many lives she ruined or how many men and women she drove into the divorce courts the same day. And her poisoned tongue will not be checked nor her cruel hand stayed until that day when the spirit of brotherly love is aroused in the breasts of all mankind and administers to the old hag her just deserts. At Logansport yesterday Dame Gossip prompted a woman to say unkind things of her neighbor, then, because her victim's tongue had yielded to temptation Gossip took her life through the agency of the woman, a bride of a day, who had been the target of Gossip's poisoned darts. And the murderess was prompted to commit her terrible crime through a young woman who was Bent by Gossip to repeat to her friend the words of the woman who today lies cold in death, with her children crying their hearts out beside her body. This young woman, who played the part of tale-bearer for Gossip, is now being held by the police for being the immediate cause of the tragedy, but there is a world of truth in what she says in protest against her detention: "I did not dream that Elizabeth would do such a thing. As for repeating to Elizabeth what Mrs. Copple told me' about her, I don't see where I did anything wrong. Any woman would have done the same thing. If I had not told Elizabeth about it some one else would, because Mrs. Copple made the same remark to others." In this sordid, pitiful Logansport tragedy all the principles are women, but such is not always the case. Dame Gossip can make men her dupes as easily as she can women. Gossip is immune to libel laws. Only human hearts can bring the fiend to her long delayed justice.

PERUNA CRITICS SAY

THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WON. DERFUL IN THE RECOVERY OF MRS. EBERLEIN.

DR. HARTMAN REPLIES.

Two Kinds of Charity.

This Date in History

The Philadelphia Times correctly points out that the trouble with most charity is that it is inspired by half-contemptous pity, and it further makes clear the fact that the righting of human wrongs can never be affected in this spirit. There is a charity which leads one to go to his unfortunate brothers and lend his brains and his hands, as well as his purse, to relieve the conditions which have brought poverty and misery to their doors; and there is a so-called charity which carelessly tosses a coin to temporarily relieve the sufferings of a class of people the aimgiver knows nothing of and does not care to know. The Times goes on to say: The well-to-do, who do not come in contact with the poor, think they are charitable when they have furrlshed money to tide over the most wretched of those in need of aid. They believe cash donations to relieve utter want fulfill their duty to their fellow man and squares them with God. The charity worker knows better. The charity worker knows that the need of the poor is not temporary help, but permanent improvement. It is nothing short of a crime to keep a portion of the people forever on the verge of starvation and always in need of clothing, fuel, decent and healthful surroundings and some sort of wholesome recreation, and then, when the stress is the greatest, to throw them a few alms in order that they may continue to exist to suffer these privations. Better homes, better working conditions, better food, these are the things needed. To obtain them is the true charity. The average human, if given an opportunity, does not need alma. It is the stubborn social and industrial conditions which make m?n poor and keep them poor in spite of their efforts that need correction. The man who robs his tenants by denying them sanitary housing and plenty of sunshine and fresh air can never make up in alms what he Bteals in health. His pity can never overtake his injustice. If. he would be charitable he must eliminate the conditions that make people poor and sick. The man who pays pauper wages and wrings dividends out of the toil of little children and overworked women can never put back in public donations, be they all he has made, what he has taken from society. Pity can never restore health, cm never enable the children to live over their lives and enjoy their chilihood as they were intended to do by nature, can never enable men to tura back the years and realize more out of their lives. The grave danger at present is that pity will creep into the making of oir laws, Instead of justice and charity. We do not want a paternalistic government that cares for us; we" want a paternalistic government that sees to it we are given a square deal in the fight, that guarantees equity and justice. , It is the making of just laws, charitable laws that promise a square deal to old men, little children and patient mothers, that guarantee opportunity to the young man, safety to the young woman and hope to the home, that are needed. They are practical laws. They include laws regulating wages, and working conditions and hours; laws which affect tenement houses, playgrounds, dance halls and schools; laws that affect taxes, public service corporations, coal mines and tariffs. They have not been generally known or thought of as having any relation to charity, but resolved into their elements they have everything to do with charity with putting yourself in the other fellow's place and trying to make his life better for himself and better for society.

Of course my narrative concerning Mrs. Eberlein, of Pittsburg, who was rescued from apparent death by Pe-ru-na, has excited a good deal of discussion and comment. One critic has offered the following solution. He says that the reason Pe-ru-na cured Mrs. Eberlein at such a stage of the disease is explained as follows: She was probably very weak. She became unable to expectorate. The consequence was huge accumulations of mucus and phlegm gathered in the lungs. On account of her weakness she was unable to expel it. It was slowly strangling her to death. Pe-ru-na stimulated her, enabled her to cough up and spit out the accumulated phlegm. This explains why she was cured. There was no miracle about it. Nothing wonderful either. To all of which I say, yes, of course. That may be the explanation. And yet it remains true that without the Pe-ru-na she would have died. It remains true that I got there just in time to save her life. The doctors had given her up to die. She was gasping for breath, unconscious, cold, in short, dying. However it is explained, the Pe-ru-na saved her life. Of course it did. I do not believe in miracles myself. I believe there is a natural explanation for everything. Pe-ru-na helped Mrs. Eberlein to expel from her lungs the accumulated expectoration, and thus saved her life. Good. I presume Mrs. Eberlein is just as thankful that she is alive with one ex

planation as with another, and I am

just as thankful that I was able to

cure her, whatever the explanation may be. (Advertisement)

WARD SCHOOLS TO BE SOCIAL CENTERS Committee of Club iMembers Will Ascertain Sentiment on This New Project.

To see if there is need in Richmond of making the ward schools social centers, a committee with representatives of all the city clubs in its personnel met at the high school today and outlined plans to execute this purpose. The committee is the outgrowth of a movement of the Collegiate club, which has advocated for some time the establishment of social centers in the ward schools. Those interested in the movement say they believe there is need of making the school centers where clubs may hold meetings and patrons of the schools may assemble

to discuss matters pertaining to their common welfare. The committee will ask the school board for co-operation. It will attempt to see If the patrons of the schools pbrove of the movement. Edward Ward of the University of Wisconsin, who has charge of tho social center work of that state, has promised to deliver a lecture here as soon as the committee determines whether It is advisable to take up the question. The committee organiied today by

electing Mrs. W. O. Mendenhall chairman, and Mrs. Colin Schaefer, secretary-tress. Other persons interested in the movement will be added to the committee. The representation of the

Tubs on the committee is as follows:

Ticknor. Mrs. Frank Land; Athenaea. Mrs. Colin Schaefer; Tourist. Mrs. James Judson; D. A. R.. Mrs. George Dougan; Music Study Club. Miss Mildred Schalk; Franchise League. Miss Harriet Thompson; Progressive League. Mrs. J. E. Cathell: Domestic Scier. e. Miss Mary Ann Stubbs; Collegiate, Mrs. Herschel Coffin.
