The Lecture of Mr.. Clark.

Congressman Champ Clark, Of Mis-
souri,, appears at the Central school
building this evening in the course of
the teachers institute lecture. He Is
we'll known all over the United States
for his wit and keenness of speech.
This is what a western paper says of
this speaker and his lecture: "a large
and cultured audience greeted Con-
gressman Champ Clark at the Central
High School auditorium yesterday to
listen to his lecture on Daniel Web
ster. They came to hear and remained
TO applaud. From start to finish it
was a keenly appreciative audience
and the speaker was frequently inter-
rupted by laughter and applause.
The address was a marshaling OF
great thoughts in strong. elegant, clear
English. 1t abounded in happy illus
trations, well chosen anecdote. pithy
epigrams; in humor, pathos and patri-
otism. The lecture was delivered will,
that persuasive eloquence for which
Mr.. Clark is so justly distinguished.
Among the many strong points of
the lecture were the Side-lights thrown
upon Webster's contemporaries-Clay
Calhoun. Haype and Benton. Mr..
Clark is one of the few congressman
who have a passion for history. biogra-
phy. poetry and art. The auditor is
reminded of what Benton says of John
Randolph, of Virginia: that he would
exhaust enough historical allusion. apt
quotation and pertinent anecdote on
one speech to adorn a dozen efforts

First Institute Lecture.

The first lecture Of the course, which
vii! be given this week in the audito-
rum of the High school, was opened
last evening with a selection by the
glee club. 1t was very nicely rem
dered. The recitation, "'rhe Drunken
Organist" by June Fitzpatrick, was

ham, Frank and Watt rendered a piano
trio in an exquisite manner.
The next on the programme was the
lecture, Character Building" by SUI

very ably. In part, he said: II think
the most important duty of this gen.
Grafton is to prepare those who are 10

piSbiSiio S3iNS liClI " tllS "oilt
We are especially anxious that our
boys and girls should be so trained
that they will have correct Judgment.
I'VE discover in our nature ten
dency toward action and these actions
repeated become habits, and these
habits repeated become character. It
is the effect produced upon the indi-
vidual that is the important problem
in these lessons.
"'The greatest element In life after
all is to learn to be useful to mankind.
Those who work for others are on the
broad road to prosperity. Character is
really what we are. Character differs
from reputation in this: Reputation is
what the world may say of us; char
acter is growth that comes to us
through all the years of our develop
ing life. Reputation is heetng
thing: character always remains with
us. Character is the thing that We
are looking after in this world ana
we must seek to acquire it. The aim
of life is rather to point out the direc-
tion toward the formation of good
character" He then said that the
mind was divided in three parts. He
cited the parts, bringing his lecture to
a close by using the story of "'rhe
Great Stone Face" by Hawthorne.

Jones held Mr.. Lathrop in $500 bonds

the alderman preferred regular surety.
SO George s. Kimball furnished that
amount of security. and the combat
ants wended their separate ways.
The city is full Of excitement over
the fracas. Yesterday 1t was the prime
subject of discourse, and while many
severely criticized Mr.. Lathrop for at
tacking a man physically smaller than
himself, others condoned 1t on the
ground that he was justified by the
long course of patience he had prac-
ticed in going to such great lengths.
Last evening the Leader had nothing
