MRS. THOMAS LECTURE.
Will BE Feature of the Schubert
Club Choral Series

An additional value has been added to
the season tickets of the Schubert club
choral series by the decision of the ex-
ecutive committee last Saturday morning.
The lecture of Mrs. Theodore Thomas,
which will be given on Saturday after
noon, Jan. IS, previous to the appearance
of the orchestra on Jan. % and %, will be
free to all purchasers of season tickets of
any class. The subject of the lecture is
"The Symphony" and it will be illustrat-
ed by Mrs. Thomas herself and by two
of the best pianists in the Schubert club.
Mrs. Thomas has lectured many times on
this and similar themes before the Chi
cago Amateur club. She recently lectured
in Milwaukee before large audience,
JUS previous to the concert of the
orchestra. While she is in great demand
for. such work, especially among clubs,
she rarely accepts such invitations, and
ST. Paul may consider itself fortunate
that 1t is to entertain and to hear the
accomplished wife of the great conduc-
tor.
The sale of reserved seats for the Schu-
bert choral series to season ticket holders
begins next Tuesday, Nov. %, at 8 a.
m. and last four days. The sale of single
reserved seats begins Dec. 2, both at How
ard, Farwell & Cos.

INNOCENT MAN SHOT.
Was Mistaken for One of a Mob and
Lost His Life.

NORFOLK. Va, Nov. 2O-Oscar c.
Fleming, the Princess Anne county mag
istrate who, last Thursday, sh5t and kill
latter, accompanied by a friend, was re-
turning to this city from a hunt, was
this morning the cause of murder
Threats to lynch Fleming have been so
numerous that ne has turned his house
into an arsenal. and every night friends
stay there with him. Sunday night a mob
proceeded 70 his place from this city with
the intention. presumably, of administer
ing punishment. The visiting party was
composed OF shout fifty men, who took
a position beside an outbuilding in the
yard and waited for Fleming 70 appear.
AT O'Clock this morning a shot rang
out sharply on the frosty air. This vas
followed by several hundred from the
other side of the residence, which was
punctured both inside and outside by bull
let's None Of the inmates were injured
Soon after the shooting Fleming
emerged, to find man dead in the yard
Nothing was seen or heard Of the at
lacking party, which had departed. At
daybreak neighbors gathered and a cor
oners inquest was held. The man had
been shot from q secord-story- porch, and
death was instantaneous. He could not
be identified The theory is that the dead
man is a tramp who, seeing lights In the
window Of the Fleming house, was ap-
preaching to seek assistance when shot
by a watcher from an upper porch. The
mob on the other side of the house, be-
lieving 1t had been discovered and fired
upon, opened a fusillade against the
dwelling and then ran away.

SHORT SMART STORIES.

Here is a joke which comes fresh from
the Erin Sir Thomas Lipton's yacht. The
names were given to the writer, but they
We're suppressed for obvious reasons:
A young woman on the Erin, while ev
cry one was waiting for wind, asked:
What slang expression which you have
In America pleaSes pussy cat?
The listeners all gave 1t up, of course.
why, rubber neck" was the reply.
One of Sir Thomas British friends
heard 1t and Thought 1t was so good that
he called friends up to hear the conun-
drum The one summoned came, all ex-
pectancy. The enthusiastic admirer of
the story could not wait for the young
woman who had originally sprung the
joke to repeat 1t, but started to tell 1t
himself ruI 80

and the answer brought out a greater
roar than had greeted the original story.
To Jan Steen, the Dutch painter, a bril-
liant practical joke Is ascribed. Having
accepted a commission from a notable
burgher of Leyden to paint a mural pic
ture representing THE Children of Is
rael Crossing the Red Sea-" Steen, as
usual, requested a considerable advance
and then disappeared to have a joyous
time, his patron having also gone on a
pleasure trip. Stems return took place
a day before the patrons and the wall OF
the staircase had not SO much as been
touched. Steen simply painted 1t a dark
red all over. What is this?" asked the
astonished and irate merchant. That"

STILL UNIDENTIFIED
Man Who Hanged Himself to n
Tree Unknown.

The identity of the man who hanged
himself to a tree In West st. Paul Sat
urday afternoon remains mystery. The
body is still at the morgue, and while q
number of persons have viewed the re-
mains, no one is able to say who the
dead man was. The fact that satchel
containing a change of clothing was
found near the body leads to the belief
in some quarters that the man was a
stranger in the city, but as he referred
in note in his pocket to having befriend-
ed persons here, there is some reason to
believe he belonged In st. Paul. The
