MISS ULMER's OVATION.
Such Was the Peoples Meetins
Last Night-Why Any Religion

Last Night-Why Any Religion?
Century hall was packed last night as
it has seldom been packed. a large
portion of the crowd was undoubtedly
drawn out by the announcement that
Miss Maud Ulmer, now with the Bos-
tonians, was to sing at the peoples
meeting. The regular service.was pref
aced by little presentation. Rev. S.
W. Sample called Miss Ulmer to the
platform and there presented to her. on
behalf of her numerous friends in Min
neapOliS, and especially among the at
tendants upon the peoples meetings,
with handsome ring. With emerald and
diamond settings. Miss Timer could
scarcely find words to reply.
regular services began. The subject
chosen by Mr.. Sample for his discourse
last evening was, why Any Relig-
ion?" In brief. he said:
1.-The word religion comes from a
root meaning not to hold back OF bind
down, but to 60 over again, to consider
carefully. Religion doesn't imply bond
age, although it has contained much
that was offensive. Yet in spite of all
these. the poor victim still looks I'D to
it, saying, Here is my Father Man
must be religious. Religion is the steam
power to draw humanity up the in
clined plane of life.''
Mr.. Sample pleaded for the national
religion.
While he believed in humanity he
would not fall down and worship it. A
rational religion did not want to be
patronized. He believed in the theater
when it stood for education or rest. but
where was the public institution with
out the church, which stood for char
acter? The question, "Why any re-
lgion?" answered itself. 1t was the
beauty of the soul, that love of man.
that which elevated and made true man
hood.

GETTING YOUR HAIR OUT.
1t Is Nice Matter, and Your
Barber Should Be Watched.

1t Is Nice Matter, and Your
Barber Should Be Watched.
Some men who are exceedingly care
full about their dress bring all that care
to waste by negecting their hair. He
who has the attire of a gentleman and
the bair of Bowery tough suffers the
humiliation of being distinctly inferior
to his own clothes. Nothing is more
necessary to the man who would be
correct in his appearance than proper
dressing of the hair.
Styles change in this matter as else
where. At present, says the New York
World, the movement seems to be
toward longer locks. 1t is surely so in
England. and the fashion there is doubt
less exerting its influence upon Ameri-
cans. 1t is impossible to convey the
impression of the exact length that is
proper. Figures wouldn't do it; and,
indeed, the length should vary slightly
with the nature of the hair and the cast
of the cOuntenance. But in a general
way l would say don't have you hair cut
too short, and let it be left Of good
length upon the sides.
Some BARRIERS if told to leave the hair
long at the sides will neglect to train it
properly behind the ears. Always look
out for that. If the long hair runs back
too far it must end too abruptly and will
not harmonize with the short hair on the
back of the head. In that case it does
not look well from behind.
One of the most conspicuous faults of
the parvenu is that he does not dress
himself for observation from all points
of view. He sees himself in mirror
full in the face and gets himself up for
his own observation alone. The careful
man of fashion sees himself with the
eyes of all the world. No man is so
poor, or so busy, or so high and mighty
that he can disregard this principle
A gentleman's hair is parted rather
high up on his head, but rarely now in
the middle. The parting should begin
at point just over the inner corner of
the left eye and run backward to the
crown. At this point it has come TO
the exact median line of the head.
From the crown the parting extends
about an inch and a half straight
down the back of the head From
the parting the hair is brushed nat
urally across the forehead. 1t must not
be plastered down, nor must it be
brushed Enthusiastically back over the
temple in the manner much affected by
BARRIERS themselves in the small eOun-
thy towns.
At the back the hair is cut rather
short, but this must be done cleverly,
in order not to make the back of
the head look out of proportion
with the sides where the hair
is long. No we'll bred man ever
allows the back of his neck to
be shaved The clipping machine may
be used but with the greatest discretion.
The form of the hair on the neck must
be left natural. The barber must not
attempt to give it any particular outline
unless he can do it in such way as to
deceive the most critical observer. Art,
which is absolutely concealed. is as good
as nature. but art which reveals itself
unnecessarily in matters Of the toilet is
to be wholly condemned.

The Proner Free Love.

A. G. Lanphere lectured last evening
at No. II Washington avenue north
upon Occult Science and Esoteric
Teaching of Free Love" to an audience
of about thirty persons. Mr.. Lanphere
declared that he believed in free love.
but not free love in the broadcast sense
of the term-not free indulgence of the
animal passions.
The free love to which he referred
was that which prompted him to love his
neighbor equally with his own family,
to love every man as we'll as his own
brother with an unselfish love. The
home circle, he argued, was where self
ishness had its first Origin, but still he
declared himself as believer in home
relations. There should be some check,
some restraint upon the animal passions
OF man, and hence the law governing
social relations. He argued that these
laws had become necessary.

MINNEAPOLIS,
ALL THE COMFORTS.
CHATS What Sam Edwards Will
Obtain With 100000.

The last time the Comforts of Home''
company played at the Grand 1t was
stated that during the season of 1928
Sam Edwards. who plays Theodore
Bender in the charming comedy, would
become a member of AuguStin Daly's
company. The contract with Mr.. DAILY
was to commence Sept. y, 1892, and to
continue over a period of five years.
Since shat time Mr.. Edwards has
changed his mind, and instead of ap-
pearing at Days theater, Will go to Eu
rope in May to be gone for an indefinite
time. Sam Edwards, at the age of seven,
was the only son of Il very wealthy mer-
chant of Liverpool. He became at
tached to 4 sailor named Trevern and
one night he shipped on board vessel
with TreYern bound tor the South seas.
The voyage lasted three years,
and finally Trevern and his
prOtege landed at Melbourne, Aus
tralia, where he remained for five
years, Trevern working at Shipbuilding
during this time. Young Edwards, again
getting the roaming fever, left TreYern
III Melbourne, and became stowaway
on a ship going to San Francisco. When
he arrived in San Francisco he secured
position at the old California theater,
and later became a member of the old
John Mcguire stock company. Since
that time he has travelled with several
theatrical organizations, and about two
years ago he became & member of one of
Mr.. Frohman's companies. All this
time he eXerted every effort to obtain
some news of his father, and last sum-
mer. when he visited LIVERPOOL, he
learned that his father, hearing that his
son was in Australia, went there, and,
becoming engaged in quarrel with
Trevern, the old sailor, whom he found
in Melbourne, was shot. Trevern was
sent TO prison for life, where he died.
Just before the Frohman company left
New York city recently, Mr.. Edwards
received word that he would receive

amounts to about 100000. the balance

lives in Rome. Mr.. Edwards will in all
probability leave the stage at the close
of the season, going TO England to assist
in settling up his fathers estate, and

his days at the old home which he left
when a boy. Mr.. Daily will lose good

their hats in glee. This greeting
was sort of preface to the
announcement of the week of prayer
One point touched upon was that there
had been. in the year just passed,
some leadings of Divine Providence that
were hard to understand. The people
Of the church, 1t said, cannot quite un-
derstand why they were compelled to
part with an efficient and well-beloved
pastor just when they were beginning
to appreciate him. Nor can they under
stand why they have been allowed, by
this same Providence, to wander blindly
so long III their search for a successor to
him, their unguided footsteps leading
to no goal. The fact is noted
that this is the first year since the or
ganization of the church that the week
of prayer has been entered upon with
out the guidance of a pastor. All good
members are eXhorted TO pray that the
pastoral committee will be guided by
divine intelligence in its efforts to
secure a suitable pastor. Then the
coming week is designated as a week of
prayer. Friday evening the special
service will be prayer for a speedy
browning of the labors of the pastoral
committee with the laurel of success.

MOTIVES Of CRUSADERS.
They and Rev. w. p. Mckee Dis
IrnnHan~tnnf

They and Rev. w. L. Mckee Dis
agree on an Important Point.
The motive which inspires Walter S.
Briggs and his fellow crusaders against
the saloons was revealed by Rev. w. P.
Mckee in his prelude at Olivet Baptist
church last evening. Commenting on
the law enforcement league recently
organized he said that it was a needed
institution, as shown by the fact that
during few months siXJy-two
saloonkeepers had been convict
ed of violating the Sunday
ION testimony furnished by officials of
this league" Mr.. Mckee asked for the
names of three of his congregation who
were willing to recruit the league, and
assist in the enforcement of the laws.
1t had been shown that the laws could
be enforced; the officers elected would
not enforce them. 1t devolved upon
the league to defeat the plans of the
liquor men, viz: To suspend all liquor
laws during the meeting of the Repub-
lican convention, and keep open day
and night and Sundays.
1t was the intention also to repeal or
at least modify the existing laws, and
the saloon interests, a unit when their
revenues was at stake, would do their
utmost by fair means or foul to accom-
plish that purpose. The league was
non-partisan. While it was apparently
antagonizing Democratic administra-
ton it would undoubtedly find the same
work to do under Republican admins
tratiOn.
In connection with what Mr.. Mckee
has said, it may be of interest to state
that Briggs and his co-laborers in the
crusade field. have always maintained
that they are working for no one. Mr..
Mckee says that they working under
the direction and in the employ of the
Law enforcement league. They have
even stated on the witness stand that
they are merely working on their own
hook in bringing these cases against the
saloonkeepers. The lawyers have been
after these men pretty hot on this point
before, and it is likely that they will
press it again and attempt to show that
the crusaders have been bearing false
witness.
