CHIEF COMMENDS VOTERS ON ORDER Gormon Says Election Was Quiet, Compared to Other Years.

"Yesterday was one of the most quiet elections ever held in Richmond," said Chief of Police Gormon speaking of the good order which prevailed at the voting places over the city, and where crowds gathered last night to receive the returns. There were no fights. Henry Athey, who was arrested on the charge of intoxication died at the city jail last night. Banks and saloons were closed, the saloons opening at 6 o'clock in the evening.

the Capital gave their approval of the performance in the theatre and nearly fifty were in attendance. The preface to the play was read from the stake by Dr. Donald C. MacLeon, pastor of the first Presbyterian church of Washington (the first church attended byPresident Wilson after his inauguration). And before the curtain rose on the first ct the Rev. Dr. Earle Wilfley, pastor of the Vermont Avenue Christian church delivered an impassioned prayer asking a divine blessing on the message which the play was to present.

"Little Women." Much has been sacrificed in transplanting popular stories to the stage, but this is not true of "Little Women." All the characters of the much-loved Louisa M. Alcott book have been faithfully preserved by Marion DeForest in the dramatization which William A. Brady will present at the Gennett theatre, Saturday, November 15, matinee and night.

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 5. Excessive joy riding is slowly sapping the prosperity of the church and causing a dearth of spiritual enthusiasm, according to the report of the Rev. It. B. Marsh in the annual Methodist Episcopal conference now in session here. Nevertheless the automobile found some able defenders among the clergymen who insisted that it is not only a mark of prosperity but that it has a tendency to increase church attendance. Only excessive riding on the Sabbath, they claimed could be made a subject of criticism.

"Damaged Goods. Probably the most remarkable theatrical performance ever given in

j America, and before the most remarki able audiences, was the presentation j of "Damaged Goods" by Richard Ben

nett and his co-worers in the National theatre at Washington, D. C, on Sunday afternoon, April 6, 1913. The play

I was given under the auspices of the j Washington Society for Social Hy- ! giene, of which Dr. C. F. Stokes, Suri geon-General of the United States Navy, is president. ! Although the play was given on Sunj day afternoon (necessitated by the

actors oiner engagements in ivew York City), the leading clergymen of

FLOWERS AS FOOD.

n India the Natives Eat Bassia Tree Blossoms Uncooked. In these days one would hardly call a dinner of rosebuds a feast, nor should we be inclined to accept an invitation to dine on the blossoms of the pumpkin vine. Yet some, Indians, like the old Aztecs, used to esteem these flowers, when properly prepared, a great dainty. So, in the same way, do natives of many parts of India depend for food upon the blossoms of the bassia tree. They do not need even to cook the flowers, but make a good meal of them raw. These blossoms are described as sweet and sickly in odor and taste. They are sometimes dried in the sun, when they are kept and sold In bazaars as a regular nrtiole of diet. The trees are so highly esteemed that the threat of cutting down their bassia trees will generally bring an unruly tribe to terms. This is perhaps not to be wondered at when it is considered that a single tree will yield from 200 to 400 pounds of flowers. The Parsees cook the flowers and also make sweetmeats of them. "Nobody would be inclined to deny that smoked fish and smoked meat are agreeable varieties in our bill of fare, but few. perhaps, would feel ready to plead guilty to a taste for smoked flowers. And yet, when we give to the clove Its well earned place among flavorings we are making use of a smoked flower bud. The buds grow on a small evergreen and are plucked from the ends of the branches before they expand. Then they are dried in the sun and smoked over a wood fire to give them the brown color.
