HAMILTON LAUDED BY MRS. J, R, COLE Historical Le :rer calls Patriot AmerL?.'s Greatest Statesmen.

Mrs. J. Redding Cole, the well known Chautauqua lecturer, who specializes on historical subjects, biography, literature and economics, made her first appearance this morning at the Teachers' Institute, where she made a very favorable impression by her address on Alexander Hamilton. She first told of his ancestors and of his mother, who said to him while on her deathbed, "Remember that you are to be a great man. ' "It wa)j his description of the storm on his tlative southern island that first brought the notice of the world to him," Mrs. Cole said, "and he went off to school in the north. He was a politician at the age of seventeen and began to inhale the hot air of rebellion, but his brain was not young and his friends encouraged him to go on the platform, where he aroused the Bleeping Cromwells and defied the king. Few did not recognize his ability, but he was acknowledged to have e wonderful brain. At the age of twenty-three he wrote that wonderful letter to Robert Morris, in which he suggested a financial system, by establishing a national bank. His writings are Ciceronian in their eloquence anw power; he was the most finished man of his time. Then came the time when Washington made him his secretary and he was forced to stay from the Held of battle, where he would fain have been. And he sat day after day answering the important letters of Washington. Washington His Friend. "Rut Washington saw in him the future statesman, fertile and creative, and refused to have him killed while dolts were allowed to escape. After the war he shut himself in his library and devoted his attention to the study of law, and when he made a speech of six hours duration at the constitutional convention, what he did not tell the members about constitutional law was not worth knowing. New York determined to fight the constitution, and Hamilton was dragged Into the whirlpool of politics, where In the assembly he spoke almost every day for three weeks, and before bis logic and ingenuity the convention' fell. Hamilton's genuius never glowed so bright. When the question of the settlement of our debts came Up our present financial system burst from the brain of Hamilton complete. At this point in his career he received the challenge from Burr and sacriflced himself to the biped hyena. His had been a conquering career; he had no mother country, he had created one and what he had built no man could tear down. Throughout the history of the Hamilton family there are great names, but none stands so high as that of Alexander Hamilton, the Caeear of America. In his life we find more to commend and less to condemn than any other man. He stood beside Washington and as long as the land of the free and the home of the brave shall survive the name of Hamilton will stand as America's greatest statesman and her second greatest patriot." Tfie Theatres One of the best plays ever seen in this city is Sol Smith Russell's beautiful drama.

STORY OF RUTH IS THEME FOR RUSSELL AT CHAUTANQUA Professor Russell had a large audience at 1 : 45 yesterday afternoon when he delivered his address "The Story of Ruth." Prior to his speaking, the Lotus Glee club sang for a half hour. Their songs were varied and the solos, duets and quartet selections were all well received. Professor Russell named the various romances and love stories In the Old Testament of the Bible and then began with the story of Ruth. He said there was an uneven development in the five verses but that it had a definite theme and was worth more than history. The story shows the utter devotion of one woman for another. Various Incidents in the story were discussed and interesting points of the story were well developed by the speaker. At the conclusion of Professor Russell's talk. Miss Maud Willis gave a

Stuart, one of the most popular lecturers on the Chautauqua platform, appeared before a large audience last night and delivered his lecture, "In Tune With the Age." "The age in which we live is an age of progress," he said. "We are going some. Since I was born almost all of the modern inventions which are responsible for the progress of the age have been made, and I have lived to see great progress and advancement. Never before in the history of the world has there been so much sentiment for the. brotherhood of man. Almost all of the fraternal organizations have come into existence in the past fifty years. Never has there been such a great value placed on human life. There are just five great diseases which destroy the people of the earth. They are smallpox, tuberculosis, dphtheria, typhoid fever and alcoholism, and we have found the cause of these diseases and are stamping them out, all but one, and that is the worst, the dread disease of alcoholism, which is destroying more lives and wrecking more homes than any of the others." Wrong Ways of Money Making. "There are just seven ways of making money wrongfully train robbery, burglary, counterfeiting, grafting, kidnaping, white slavery and the saloon business. I say that the man who takes your dollar and leaves nothing in your pocket is not as bad as the man who takes your dollar and gives you a bottle of liquor in return. The latter is seven times worse than the ordinary robber, for he takes your dollar and gives you that which ruins your body, clouds your, mind, injures your reputation, destroys your character, unfits you for work, kills your love for your family and damns your soul. All of these other wrong ways of making money have been made unlawful by our government and are being stamped out, but the saloon business is flourishing under the flag and doing more harm than all of the others together. One of three things Is true, our laws are inefficient, our officers are not doing their duty, or the question is bigger than the government. If our laws are to blame we should make new ones, if our officers are unfaithful we must elect new ones, and if our devil is bigger than we are we had better begin to cut his tail off. The time is not far off. In our present age of progress we cannot long endure a business so degrading and ruining. The saloon must go."

LECTURES UPON BOOK OF ESTHER TO THE TEACHERS

Instructive and Entertaining Address by Prof. Elbert Russell, of Earlham College a Feature of the morning Session of the Chautauqua Assembly Today.

Prof. Elbert Russell delivered his I third lecture this morning before the Teachers' Institute, the subject being "The Book of Esther." He treated the book as being more nearly in the form of a drama than any other book in the Bible. "The Book of Esther," said Prof. Russell, "is the favorite book of the Old Testament among the Jews and is i read at their feasts. For the first time in the Old Testament an effort to create a background Is made and the first chapter of this book is full of description of the court. This pictures J the close, heavy, indoor and barbaric quality of the scene and also shows the atmosphere of caprice, intrigue, jealousy and vengeance. A Strange Picture. "It seems strange, the picture of the Jewess in the Gehtile court, and yet the loyalty of Esther and Mordecai and their simple, faithful, upright character in such surroundings are all the more impressive. The plot of the story is more artistic and complete than that of Ruth. The plot itself is not impossible, but some of the motives and the physicology of the characters are unusual. The Book of Esther is more nearly a drama than pny book in the Old Testament. At trjt one might thing that Mordecai was the main character in the plot, for he appears irst to suggest Esther A SATIREJN OPERA By Lotus Glee Club Pleases the Audience. One of the most clever and amusing numbers among those given by various entertainers at the Chautauqua was the act of modern n grand opera, which was "produced ' last evening by the Lotus Glee club in connection with their evening's program. The title of the opera was "Fire in an Apartment House," and he whole thing was a satire of the forms of the ordinary opera, especially emphasizing the lack of interest in the opera caused by sacrificing the action of the plot to the musical forms. The opera opened with a man and wife occupying a flat becoming suspicious on smelling smoke, and the first climax comes quickly as they realize their plight and bewail the situation in each others arms. Then the janitor makes his appearance and after being saluted by each person on the stage, calmly announces in an aria that in no way reflects any agitation that the building is on fire and they must flee. This is taken up by the entire chorus and a beautiful song, telling how they will burn if they don't flee is sung and repeated. At this juncture the wife faints and the husband, janitor, and chorus crowd about her and voice their helplessness in song until she at last revives and they all form a circle, march around the stage and pause to sing a .last final chorus before leaving the burning building. The whole thing was highly comical and very well done by the singers. The humor of this thing was fully appreciated by the audience and they received round after round of applause. It was all the more enjoyable because it was not overdone. The situations were much like those in many operas, alafdram The Woolworth building of New York, the tallest office building in the world, cost $13,500,000, and, according to the architect, is "a structure unique in New York, since its stands without a mortgage and without a dollar of indebtedness."

as queen and his appearance as prime minister is last. It is really the story of Esther, but the two are so woven together that it is difficult to separate tnem. The story is not the biography of Esther, but the account of how her people were saved. There is far more caprice in this story than in any other in the Old Testament, for the king himself is governed only by his impulses and all of his actions turn on that feature of his character. But the actions of Esther and Mordecai turn on the strength of their characters, and their merit and faithfulness win even in a court where Intrigue and caprice reign. There is an instant in the story that we feel that the situation is pathetic, when Esther goes to the king to plead for her people, bur the momentary feeling of pity turns to admiration for the heroic action. Story Becomes Dramatic. "The story becomes very dramatic and interesting at this point. Esther goes before this changeable king and secures favor by her personal charm and for two days the climax is sustained as E.sther, who waits until she sees, that she has won a place in the regard of the king that is higher than Haman, and she strikes the blow that wins over Haman. This Book of Esther is a warning to the world of the terrible menace to human brotherhood that lies in race prejudice."

LOCAL BANKERS IN FAVORJMMRE Glass Currency Bill, Several State, Will Meet Popular Demand. Formulative and nebulous as the Owen-Glass currency bill, now pending in congress, stands, when properly modified and amended to be reasonably satisfactory to the banking and business interests of the country, it will be the best currency law the nation has ever had was the opinion expressed by some local bankers today. Senator Owen and Representative Glass drafted a theoretical bill as near practical as their investigation would permit, these bankers stated, and the co-operation of financial interests all over the country is expected to aid in making it the safest and most protec tive measure of its kind ever brought before any congress. They believe the administration at Washington is earnestly desirous of making a law wbich will efficiently serve the interests of the entire country, incorporating into the banking and currency system of this country l proved principles, which will provide the most ample credit facilities with greatest safety and consistency based on gold, which automatically adjusts its volume of trade requirements. They say the object of the bill Is to obtain the greatest stability for American commerce, thereby assuring continuity of employment for the laborer and favorable markets for the producer.

Tan, Red or Freckled Skin is Easily Shed To free your summer-soiled skin of its oiliness, muddiness, freckles, blotches or tan, the best thing to do is to free yourself of the skin Itself. This is easily accomplished by the use of ordinary mercolized wax, which can be had at any drug store. Use at night as you would use cold cream, washing it off in the morning. Immediately the offending surface skin begins to come off in fine powder-like particles. Gradually the entire cuticle is absorbed, without pain or inconvenience. The second layer of skin now in evidence presents a spotless whiteness and sparkling beauty obtainable in no other way I've ever heard of. If the heat tends to loosen or wrinkle your skin, there's an effective and harmless remedy you can readilly make at home. Just let an ounce of powdered saxolite dissolve in a halfpint witch hazel and bathe your face in the liquid. This at once tightens the skin and smoothes out the lines, making you look years younger.

I L UHtAR OF PARK REVENUE Wants Glen Miller Conducted Like Private Amusement Place. A special enabling act. to be passed by the Indiana legislature, permitting the city of Richmond to build and operate an amusement park, is favored by B. A. Kennepohl. president of the board of public works, as the proper means of caring for the future development of Glen Miller. Kennepohl says that with permission obtained in this way the city could construct an amusement park fashioned after the revenue producing resorts controlled by private capital in large cities of the country. Mr. Kennepohl states that all of such kind of parks are hade financial successes. Should the city own and operate places of this kind together with the concessions that are usually sold to private individuals Mr. Kennepohl thinks that sufficient revenue could be raised in a very few years to not only pay off the bonds that would be necessary to build it but to also furnish a tidy sum annually for the improvement of other inirtions of the park. Under present arrangements the amusements aud other concessions of the park are held under private lease which will terminate September 1. 1915. Charles Fetier. the owner of the lease, states that under the short life of the leases allowed by the city, it would not be a paying proposition for a private individual to invest much money in amusement features. It is understood that the board of public works on the othfr hand, does not favor granting a long lease to anyone, as future conditions relative to the park and the city cannot be so accurately foretold as to make clear the terms of an equitable lease for a long period of years.
