Beecher's Theories of Public Speaking

Mr. Beecher had many theories about
the art OF public speaking and the way OF
managing an audience. He used to ad-
wise less experienced orators to begin in
rat her q low tone, so as to catch hold #
the watchfui attention of the meetitg
and then, when that attention was Sc
cured, to let the voice go as far rs it
would.

about to address great meeting to begin

The "New York" in Action.

The ship seemed to work and to fight
by herself; you heard no human voice Of
command, only the grieved tones of Lieu
tenant Mulligan rising from his smoke
choked deck below, where he could not
see to aim his six-inch gun, and from
" here he begged Lieutenant Marble again
and again to "Take your damned smoke
out OF my way"
Lieutenant Marble was vaulting in and
out of his forward turret like squirrel
in cage. One instant you would see him
far out on the deck, where shattered
pieces of glass and woodwork eddied like
leaves In hurricane, and the next push
ing the turret with his shoulder as though
he meant to shove it overheard, and then
he would wave his hand to his crew in
side and there would be a racking roar, a
parting OF air and sea and sky, fash Of
flame vomiting black smoke, and he
would be swallowed up in it like wicked
fairy in pantomime.
And instantly from the depths below,
like the voice OF lost soul, would rise The
protesting shrek of Dick Mulligan asking
frantically, "Oh, will you take your
damned smoke out of my way!"-Richard
Harding Darts, in Scribner's.

At an early hour on the morning OF Nov.
"A, Mrs Ruth A. Jordan died after long
and painful illness. Her demise is deeply
felt by the whole community on account
OF life and traits OF character which
endeared her to all who had been blessed
with her association. Months OF painful
suffering were borne without a murmur,
and with wonderful fortitude. In the
death OF Mrs Jordan a beautiful life has
gone out from us. Society loses a useful
and valued member and those nearer to
her have lost a most kind and helpful
friend Her home, which was always
frightened by her gentle and cheerful
presence, has been Swallowed in deep
gloom. Mrs. Jordan leaves a husband
and daughter, who mini,tered to her needs
with ceaseless devotion and love
throughout her long and tedious illness.
She also leaves an aged father, Luther

ARRESTED FOR SELLING SPOOLS OF
SILK SUPPOSED TO Be SHORT WEIGHT

Detective Murphy today arrested mal
giving the name of II. F. Williams while
he was in the act of selling to Jonas, the
tailor, a number Of spools OF silk thread
which are supposed to be short weight.
Complaint has recently been made that
two men had been working the tailors
all over the country on a silk swindle,
and watch has been kept for them in
Butte. Yesterday Bell, the tailor bought
so spools Of the silk from man who
represented that he was from the Leon
ard Silk company, ana that the spools
We're full weight carrying from 900 to
400 yards Of silk thread. He wound off
one Of the snools and found that it con-
tanned about 800 yards, and the balance
was spool.
Bell happened to drop into Jonas
place this morning just as the latter was
closing a bargain for some of the silk,
and told him how he had been sWindled.
The result was the arrest of Mr.. Will
liams. Mr.. Bell states that Williams is
not the man who sold him the silk, but
he believes that he is the partner of the
man who did, as the silk appeared to be
the same.
!, AT the Jail Williams stated that he was
from New York, but refused to give his
address there, and had nothing to say
when Detective Murphy accused him of
giving fictitious name. He was searched
closely, and $26S.O was found on his per-
son. He had about 20 pounds of silk
thread with him and one empty spool of
the kind that carries full weight.
Among his effects was found a receipt
