LIFE AND WORK !, OF SHAKESPEARE Professor Griggs Speaks Elo- quent1y Of the Famous
 Bard. Success of the Entertainment Given by the Young Mems
 Institute.

A very interesting and highly instruct i've lecture on Shakespeare was given by Professor Edward H. Griggs of Stanford University, under the auspices of Mis- sion Council No. 3, Young Mems Insti- tute, last evening.
 The speaker dealt with his subject in a manner which held the attention of the entire audience from start to finish. He spoke first of the wonderful genius evil denced in the works of the famous bard, whose masterpieces work their way slowly into the heart, but once there re- main fixed forever, although we hardly realize when they first began to become part of our natures-we only know they are there. We can hardly realize the fuel upon which this marvellous fire of genius fed itself. It was evolved in the outburst of the Renaissance following the gloomy pages of the dark ages This re- Vival awakened painting in Italy, fn colder Germany philosophy and religion, and in England It blossomed out in the drama.
 England in the Elizabethan era, the inn portant part the drama played in history at this time and the magic touch of Shakespeare's hand in the drama. He told of how the way for this marvellous first with the bloody tragedy, then with satire and mimicry and finally the DOT trayal of deep sentiment and true nature
 He enf touched ] but lightly on the early days of the famous poet, which are, in fact somewhat yelled in obscurity, but in a most touching manner referred to the early struggles of the then unknown actor in London and the slight recogni- ton which at last was somewhat charily given him.
 The lecture was preceded by a. short, but very enjoyable programme or vocal and instrumental music. Solos were ren- dered by Mrs. Eva Tenny and Frank NJ; Coffin and R. Fletcher Tilton performed in a very creditable manner on the organ. The introductory remarks were made by the Hon. Frank J. Murasky, who acted as president of the evening.
 The officers are as follows: Samuel Haskins, grand president: George A. Stanley, grand secretary; Hon, J. F. Sui- livan, past grand president; Eugene Cal Ian, president Mission Council No. 3;
 sullivan grand inside tanti9ni fentinf; H Kupe1beTg and E. Hayden, grand di- rectors; Eugene Sullivan, grand district deputy; M w Fleming, president Of lece ture bureau R. A. Miller, secretary or lecture burPdu.

A Right to Chance Her Mind.

The ladies of this State are under a lasting obligations to the Justices of the Supreme Court, who yesterday decided that women have a perfect right to change their minds and be protected by court in so doing. This conclusion was late Edward E. Shiels. At the request of the widow George F. Shiels was appoint ed administrator. A while later she asked voked and she nominated Henry E. Monroe for the position. Then, for some reason best known to herself, she changed her mind and recalled her nom ination of MT Monroe, as she had evil dently decaled that the old administrator would do.
