WILL WED A SINGER.
Publisher James EIverson Jr.
Finds Bride on the Stage.

FINDS Bride on the Stage.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 2S.-Col.
James Elverson Jr. today confirmed
the report telegraphed from Chicago
last night that he and Miss Eleanor
Mayo are to be married
Yes, it is true that am to be mar
ried to Miss Mayo" said Col. Elver-
son. 1.-THE wedding, which will be a
quiet one, will take place in New
York about the middle of April. Miss
Mayo, who is singing in Chicago this
week, retires permanently from the
stage on March 16. She will go to the
home of her parents in New York to
make preparations for the wedding"
Miss Mayo's career on the stage,
while brief. has been most wor-
thy. She possesses a beautiful voice
and while singing in concert about
year ago her voice attracted the atten-
ton of Willard Spencer, who was about
to produce 1.-THE Princess Bonnie" Mr.
Spencer made fiattering offers to the
young singer, and though 10th to adopt
the professional stage as a means of
livelihood, she finally accepted and
made her first appearance in this city
last spring, scoring an immediate sue
cess.
The opera was the greatest hit of
any production in this city, it's long
stay being due almost entirely to Miss
Mayo.
Miss Mayo is the daughter of Frank
Mayo, the well known actor, who has
just completed a dramatic arrangement
of Mark Twain's successful story, "Pud-
denheadl Wilson," which will be pro-
duced this spring in New York. The
prospective groom is one of the most
popular young men in Philadelphia.
He is general manager of the Inquirer
Publishing company. Col Elverson's
success as newspaper man has been
almost phenomenal. BY his untiring
energy he has made the Inquirer one
OF the best newspapers of the country.
AT their annual meeting of the ASCOT
ated Press in Chicago, when the terri
tory covered by that organization was
divided into four grand divisions, Col.
EMERSON was chosen a member of the
advisory board of the Eastern division.
He is also an active member of the
American Newspaper Publishing asso-
citation. Late in the spring the newly
married pair will go to Europe for an
extended tour

Small Beginnings

Make great endings sometimes ALL
ments that we are apt to consider triv-
lal often grow, through neglect, into
atrocious maladies, dangerous in them
selves and productive of others. 1t is
the disregard of the earlier indications
of Ill health which leads to the estab-
lishment of all sorts of maladies on a.
chronic basis. Moreover, there are
certain disorders incident to the season.
such as malaria and rheumatism.
against which it is always desirable to
fortify the system after exposure to
the conditions which produce them.
Cold, damp and miasma are surely
counteracted by Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. After you have incurred risk
from these influences. a wineglassful
or two of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
directly afterward should be swallow
ed. For malaria, dyspepsia, liver COM
plant, kidney and bladder trouble, ner-
vousness and debility it is the most
deservedly popular of remedies and pre-
ventives. A wineglassful before meals
promotes appetite.

cOvery of Great Importance.
QUEBEC, Feb. 2S.-The successful
tempering of aluminium, so as to give
1t the consistency of iron, is the
triumph of F. Allard, the Lewis black
smith, whose rediscevery of the lost
Egyptian art of hardening copper
startled the mechanical world three or
four years ago.
He has made and hardened a cannon.
which has just been tested in the pres
ence of Col. Spence, the American con-
sui here, and a number of others, with
success.
This cannon Is twenty-eight inches
long and five in diameter, the metal of
the gun outside the bore being only a
quarter of an inch thick. A charge
consisting of a pound of powder was
fired out of this without any appre-
ciable effect upon it. A new and scien-
tific trial of the cannon has been or
dered by the Canadian military au-
thorities and the United States consul.
Allard has been asked to manufacture.

feet long for direct shipment to WASH

member of the Peoples party, made
denial today of reports that the Re-

was very little criticism of him. All
the opposition was fostered by two
men, Medallion, of Kansas, and Nor

confined to small caucus, which did
not amount to much.'

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
HELP FOR WORTHY AND NEEDY.

Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: A visitation of the kindergarten
and night schools, planted and sustained
by the executive committee. of which Col
onel II. NJ. Boies is chairman, and A. w
Dickson is treasurer, among our people
of foreign tongues, has revealed the fact
on which this plea Is founded.
Many of the little children who have
been crowding these schools will have tC
abandon them as soon as the stormy
weather comes for want OF suftci m,
clothing to protect them. Girls OF from
1 to u years are to be found by tine dozen

which the winds Of summer have blown

Our committee Of visitation have been

the city from the vision Of these children
today. SO anxious to learn, they come
barefoot from households too poor 10
c!othe them, and too manly to beg for
anything but work and wages. yet with
out friends except as Strengthened as
themselves. Bare heads, shoulders, legs
and feet make wretched picture on the
face Of approaching winter when they be-

Now, there are garments, outgrown or

half-worn and fashion superannuated
the closets Of our good people of this city
which God has blessed to wrap up In
comfort all these children Of the worthy
strangers. I believe those who have them
would be glad to contribute them and SO
relieve themselves OF the necessity OF
holding them to dole out to the army OF
tramps which marches and counter
marches through our streets with the
seasons, and are sure to rain down with
winter storms.
With this conviction this appeal is made
to all who are looking for the opportunity
of real charity. Please send whatever you
may find 1t In your heart to give to the
residence of Colonel Boies as Mrs. Boies
has consented to take charge OF all such
garments as may be made useful to such
families and see that they are appropriat-
ed In such a way as not to harm the self
respect of those virtuOus and poor
strangers. The missionaries who live
among and work for these children will
distribute them. What kind Of clothing?

DEATH OF cHARLEs STEPHENSON

He Seems to Have Been an English LIT.
crary Man. Temporarily Ia New York.
A call for an ambulance from the Sturtevant
House was received at the West Thirtieth street
station at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. When
the ambulance reached the hotel the doctor
found man of 32 delirious from pneumonia.
The naa gave German name at first and said
that he was a drummer.
Last night the man became worse at the
New York Hospital, and while delirous de-
clared that no was Charles Stevenson, an author
of London, England. His condition became SO
serious that q physician was despatched from
the hospital to learn something about him.
The man registered at the hotel on March ! l
as Charles Stevenson of London. He paid his
bills regularly and was apparently in good
health up to four days ago, when he contracted
pneumonia. and DR.. Nichols of West Thirty
fourth street was summoned TO attend him.
In his room at the hotel were found several
letters addressed to him. caro- of w. b. Marsden.
aa Reyner place. Jersey City Heights. One let
ter was signed by f. w. Horning, 80 Deronshiro
Terrace, Chelsea, London, u
The wffter spJEa OF sofne manuscript of a
novel that Stevenson had evidently left with
him. referred to the writer's work on a new
novel. and said that Stevenson would find en-
closed q letter Of Introduction to $. y. Mcclure.
Another letter was from Stevenson's sister to
his mother which tho latter had evidently en-
closed to him. II was dated at New SOUth
Wales and the writer speaks of a visit to CO.
lombo.
in this letter frequent references to Lord and
family.
Stevenson died in the hospital last evening.
