SURRENDERED

Bombarding a stomach with hot bis
cults and warm pie, plenty OF butter,
bacon, greasy. potatoes, and a few Other
choice delicacieS will finally cause the
Notifications to give way. Then how to
puild back on good food is worth know
.ng.
A man in Factoryvile. Pa, attacked
his stomach in about this way and says:
The sign Of surrender was plain in my
white, colorless face. AT that time every
tricle of food distreS sed me-, and heart
burn kept me in continued misery.

did not agree with me. OF course, much

THRILLING PLEA
FOR THE COLLEGE
Gentleman Who Lately Learned to
Read Speaks for Higher Educa-
lion and Gives Also.

To hear a man Of comparative wealth
and much influence, who but lately
learned to read, make a splendid address
and plea for higher education is not a
usual experience. But such a one came
to Or. 5. NJ. Pitcher. of Petersburg. few
days ago. DR.. Pitcher was followed by
! this gentleman after making speech
for contributions to Richmond College to
meet the Rockefeller offer.
DR.. Pitcher had been attending an all
day meeting and was asked to remain
over night and preach He accepted
tho invitation. That night he learned
that the church had done nothing in
hiding to get the Rockefeller offer. He
decided to present the claims of the col
lege. It was raining VIXEN the time came
to preach and only a few of the re
tables were there. DR.. Pitcher told OF
the movement, and about the time he
gentleman rose and asked that he may
say a word The gentleman made one
Of the strongest appeals for higher edu-
cation that the Doctor had ever had the
pleasure to hear. The gentleman in his
closing remarks said he would subscribe
a certain amount When he concluded
the Doctor had an easy time In raising
a handsome sum. AS he left the church
one of the deacons told Dr.. Pitcher the
following story:
Years have made great change on that
man. It was only a few years ago he
could not read a word. DR.. Dickinson
was travelling through that part of the
county and induced the gentleman to
take the Religious Herald. From the
head lines Of that paper he learned his
alpha bet and finally could read the paper
without difficulty. and then he read MS
Bible for the first time. It is an inter-
esting thing to mention that this man
who learned to read and write from
newspaper made an appeal for higher
education and led a movement to raise
money for the cause.

like fabulous prices for their work. This
see ms strange when one lightly consia-
ers that there are about $1,000 bands in
ttis country which can be heard most
every day for nothing. The difference
between the great number and the few IS
merit.
The. concert band may be termed the
music Of the people from the fact that
most of the year they are employed at
summer resorts and eHpositions, where
prices are popular AT the exposition

being depended upon to draw crowds
wnen the millions worth OF exhibits and
ide-shows fail. Innes Is said to have
prayed to nearly 100000 paid admissions
n the b!g lines Auditorium during each
of his Atlantic City seasons, while his
audiences at the Buffalo Pan-American
exposition were only li1n'tbd by lac
capacity of the beautiful Temple OF Mu-
sic, where the concerts We're given.
The cost of such band as lines, II
hired outright, IS about 5000 week.
To those who believe that musicians can
be hired at the cost of the laborer, the
concert band would appear like a great
money-making institution. This is a mis-
take Fine musicians practically fix
IL cir own wages, and none of the band
leaders can be called wealthy men. In
its nature the business is one of ups and
is in the easiest circumstances of any
of the famous band-leaders, though like
Innes. he has acquired a commercial
standing only within the last few years.

It will be pleasant to admirers of
dainty. graceful. tunefui airs to near
this delightful musical comedy, which
undoubtedly has been one of the musical
hits of the year.
The story is that OF a mandarins love
for his daughter. San Toy In order
to save his head. and HIS daughters,
too, he sends her to the Imperial Court
upon command of the Emperor She is
in love with an English officer. The
much married Emperor falls victim
to her wiles; she does with him as she
spleases; gains her fathers pardon, and
his appointment as Viceroy and consents
to her union with the young Englishman
There are many characters introduced
who take an important part in the de-
yelopment of the story: chief among
them is L. the nandarin's secretary.
which is admirably played by Samuel
Collins.
The production is most elaborate; the
two scenes employed are beautiful and
picturesque, one showing street in
"Pynka-Pong the other the Imperial

tunes are most elaborate and are alb
solutely correct, being imported from

able gentleman, and has made strong
friends of ali who have been thrown with
him during the session Of the convention.
Eppa Hunton, Jr., besides being one Of
the greatest lawyers in the convention,
is decidedly the Lord Chesterfield of the
body, when it comes TO fine manners.
Being the son of the great Confederate
loader and former United States Senator,
whose distinguished name bears, 1t
would be strange if he were anything else
by instinct and by training. than the very
highest type OF the true Virginia gentle
man. He is the very incarnat ton OF all
the term implies. and 1t is therefore easily
explained that he is one of the most popu-
lar of the convention leaders. Mr.. Hun
ton occupies a place in the very front
ranks as e, lawyer, and though yet a
young man, he has a reputation for legal
ability, which is more than Statewide.
An intimate knowledge of his superior
gifts in this line induced President Goode
to place him at the head of the Judiciary
Committee and he has discharged his
duties in this capacity with Characters
tic ability and 10 the eminent satisfac-
ton of all concerned. Mr.. Hunton's was
ineeed trying task from the time his
committee took up the great problem OF
reforming the judiciary of the State, until
his report was finally adopted in Commit

sometimes acrimonious debates that

have seemed unnatural 1or me ctidlrHial

and courtesy the distinguished chairman
deferred ard yielded at all times to the
wishes OF his colleagues, and even under
the most trying circumstances he was
the same forbearins and courty Vir-
ginian.
Mr.. Hunton has recently removed his
residence and law Offices to this city, ano'
his name is not unfrequently linked to
high political honors.
He is certainly very much in the pubic
eye at this time. and his friends predict
great things for him in the future

LAW CASE
Dietrich- Parker. Decision Of More
Than Local Bearing.
HINGES ON THE WORD MAJORITY
Central Committees Will Get the
Matter straightened Out for
November Elections.

Special to The journal.
West Superior, Wis, April 4.-The APP
peal taken by the Dietrich forces from the
decision Of Judge Vinje in regard to the
election law which was tested before the
circuit court as result of split in the
republican convention, will attract wide
attention The question is on the inter-
probation of the word majority The
caucus laws of the state say that to be
elected or nominated for any Office at a
caucus the candidate must receive a ma
jority OF the votes cast, With three can
didates running anywhere close together,
this would be impossible and the people
might keep balloting for weeks without
getting results
The case is one that will affect the en-
tire state at the election next fall. Espec-
tally will this be true in regard to the
county officers where there is generally a
wild scramble for, the places. The point
was probably raised here for the first
time when the Parker delegates to the
convention to nominate mayor left the
convention on the ground that illegally
elected delegates were acting, these dele
gates not having received a majority OF
the votes Judge Vinje held with the
| Parker forces on this.
The matter has been brought to the at
tention of the republican state central
committee, which will take it up in order
that there may be no question at the cleo
| ton in November.
| Under Sheriff Frank Sommer stopped q
fight late yesterday afternoon that might
| have resulted seriously. William Smith
and WV. Dunn were fighting and Smith
was using heavy stove poker on Dunr
while the latter was about to pull gun
so Sommer says. Both men were placed
under arrest.
