Yale, Mich. Jan. IA. 1902.
Mr. j. A. Menzies,
Yale.
Dear Sir:-In your last weeks paper
we see the statement-"lf you don't
like Yale, move out"
Would you please explain your state.
ment i'm your next issue.
Yours respectfully,
subscriber.
The above request was dropped in
our item box, and while our waste bas-
ket is the receptacle for all items that
are not accompanied by the signature
of the person who writes them, we Will
deviate this time from the rule, and try
and explain the statement referred TO
bY "Subscriber."
In every village there is n certain
class that never have a good word for
their town, and Yale Is no exception.
They are what one would call fault
finders or chronic kickers, nothing done
by anyone meets their appreciation.
They are looked upon as more harmful
than the gOssipers, and are usually
found hand in hand with those indi-
yiduals who crop out In the spring on
n dry goods box, discussing how our
nation. state and village should be run,
and generally close their arguments
by taking fresh "chaw" of tobacco
and passing remarks about respectable
ladies that pass by. You VIII find them
again. debating 90 our merchants and
threatening 10 patroniZe outside towns
unless they yield 90 their demands. III
subscriber" Is of this class we think
that his absence will be great deal
more appreciated than his presence,
and we can say 90 him that IL he
doesn't like Yale, move out
In the item In question we do not
refer 20 any one who moves out of our
town. Circumstances compel people
10 GO and come and Yale has lost many
a public spirited citizen, whom we re-
GREETED very much 10 lose.
We want citizens who will stand by
their town aud speak a good word for
10 whenever an opportunity presents
itself. They are the kind OF citizens
that strangers enjoy 10 meet and no
town can prosper without them.

FRENCH OPERA IS
 COMING IN MARCH
MANAGER DOUGLASS SIGNED A CONTRACT YESTERDAY WHICH WILL GIVE BIRMINGHAM TWO GREAT PERFORMANCES.

The famous French Opera Company of New Orleans has been engaged for two grand performances at the Jefferson The atre Saturday. March = matinee and night. Manager Douglass signed the con tract yesterday.
 The French opera is finer this season than ever before. It begins its touring enterprise at Memphis and will come from Memphis to Birmingham. The com pany is as large as Maurice Grau's, which gave "Lohengrin" here last October, and it is better in many respects. It brings seven or eight principals, a chorus of 30 a ballet of 25 an orchestra of 40 and many upernumeraries-a company all told of l75.
 The operas to be sung here have not yet been selected but it is almost certain that Carmen will he one of them. MT. Guckenberger said last night he would suggest that the company give Carmen and the Jewess. The latter opera has nev- CT been heard here and it is known among musicians as a very great work The Jewess is to be performed in Memphis. The manager says that while the prices

ED. cuDAHY AFTER A RECORD.
Training Since Kidnapping Has Made
 Him Proficient in Bowling.

From the New York World
 Omaha-Eddie Cudahy, the 16-year-old son of E. A Cudahy, the millionaire packer, who was the principal In the eel ebrated kidnapping case year ago. is claimant for the bowling record for his age.
 He is easily the best of the younger set of bowlers in Omaha, and frequently goes above the 20O-mark, both in private and In match games His record was made lew nights ago, when he scored 256.
 His good work on the alleys Is the result of the course mapped out for him by his father since his Kidnapping. At that time the elder Cudahy determined to put hls son through a course of athletics which would fit him to put up a stout resls- tance in case he is ever again attacked.
 This commenced in the spring, when young Cudahy could be seen daily at tho practice grounds of the Creighton Uni vel sity baseball team. In the summer tennis and track events took his atten- tion and this fall he was one of the most promising candidates for place on the university foot ball team.
 In addition to this, a well stocked gym rasium has been fitted up at his home, and there he frequently invites the boys of his set to contests of skill ard en- durance Fencing, vaulting and number of exercises are possible With the mag nificent apparatus with which the home gymnasium is furnished.
 Besides being fitted himself to stand off the attacks of any others of the Pat Grove type, Cudahy has another protec- ton through the fact that wherever he goes he always has one or more com panions with him, and a faithful servant of the family is always on guard to pre- vent a repetition of the crime that stirred the continent from coast to coast.
 Bowling however. is young Cudahys \ strcng point, and overtures have been made to him by the managers of several of the Omaha crack league teams He contents himself, however, with the cap taincy of the Creighton University team.

PUBLIC WANTS LOVE STORIES.
Opinion of a Former Editor of liar
 per's Weekly.

From the Washington Post.
 MT Henry L. Nelson, formerly editor of Harper's Weekly, is the latest &C., quisition to the capitals library set He has made his home here in Seventeenth street, and announces his intention of spending his winters in Washington in the future. MT. Nelson talks entertain ingly of his experience as an editor and it will doubtless be of interest to writers for the magazines to know what vet eran editor of one of the best periodicals in the country says upon the subject Of magazine contributions.
 "The magazines" declared MT. Nelson, want anything that can be attractively illustrated. Today the public insists on being entertained A magazine article must be light, much lighter than in years gone by, and must contain plenty of anecdote. In fact the average maga- zine article is often series of anecdotes which are nothing more or less than em- bryo short stories"
 Then you do not believe, with the critics that the popularity of the short story Is one wane?'
 ''No, it is not true. whatever critics say. Everything is tending toward this form of fiction. The idea that the love psychological story may be dying out be- cause the public want action, but the love story in spite of the critics, still holds the place of honor. Love! People are not tiring of love; they are never tir- ed of love. 1t is true that adventure is a supreme element in the modern short story, but when the adventure is one of love, 1t makes the best sort of story. Every story which deals with human be- ings must deal with man and woman Place man and woman in any position in which they are of interest to each other and to the world, and what Is the result? Almost invariably a love story"
 What do you think of woman as short story writers?"
 Everything! Woman Is in her element in this sort of work. Her fine sensibili- ties and her strong emotional power es- pecially fit her for 1t. She Is decidedly the equal of any man in this field. In- deed it is my opinion that in time wom en will drift more and more toward the work and men will leave 1t and take up the serious and heavier side of literature Fiction and poetry are woman's best field history and politics belong to men.
 But the short story is not dying out. It Is growing shorter and more popular every day"

Takinq Chances.

From the New York Mail and Express.
 In the career of a man who suc- ceeds without aid or influence in this country there always lies a message to the young men of this land. Some times the message is put into words. Then those words are always worth close study.
 Eleven years ago man took up his residence in an American city. He had a capital of $1.25, and no backing except his energy and judgment. In less than ten years he was a million aire, head of half a dozen financial institutions and a high city official His words were well worth hearing. And this was the theory he voiced:
 Human life is too slow for the slow processes of thrift. I concede that one gets a small start by keeping part of his salary, but l am talking about commercial success on a broad scale. I do not see how a man can possibly make a fortune unless he speculates. Don't you ever believe that by saving money a man doubles his capital. He does it in strikes and big punches. All my good fortune, so far as it has come, has resulted from taking ShohSCo' AdfO pA0lCilSu lO ldhS chances on a large piece of real estate rather than a bushel of beans. So I have made more money than a corner grocer and yet, with all due respect, I could not successfully manage a grocery store. Every man in his own place is my rule. l find success in an indomitable faith in your own propo- sition.
 This advice, put in words by this successful man, is urged daily by thousands of examples. But, 1t so happens that the real meat of this message, like the point of a woman's letter, lies in the postscript. Frank C. Andrews of Detroit spoke it. He is now in jail charged with bank wreck ing and breaches of many trusts. He may escape the fate of a pauper pris- oner in the penitentiary At best he will be bankrupt and disgraced man.
 The facts of today furnish the moral for his discourse of day just passed. It needs no other comment. But 1t cannot be brought home too often to our boys.

Johannesburg to Have Fine Hotel.

From the New York Herald.
 London-Ritz the famous hotel keeper, and restauranteur, not content with a pretty good sized chain of hostelries in Europe, has set out to conquer South Af- rica.
 Not long ago it was stated that Ritz and his company were to build hotels at Camps Bay near Cape Town. and at Auckland Park, in the Transvaal.
 Now I am able to announce that they have decided to build a hotel at Johan- nesburg.
 This action was decided upon at a meeting of directors of the company in London on Friday, when 1t was further more decided that the work should begin immediately.
 '"The war will make no difference in our plans" said MT. Ritz's representative in London to me tonight.
 "Englishmen have already begun to flock down there, and there may be others whom business calls to South Africa. Good hotel accommodations are desired. and we shall endeavor to supply them and shall try to import Carlton hotel civilization into the Transvaal. The new hotel will contain between 200 and 25o rooms'
 The work on the hotels at Camps Bay and Auckland Park is progressing rapid ly. The latter Is expected to become the Mayfair of the new TranSvaal capital from which 1t Is only two miles distant

DETROIT BANK
 STANDS THE RUN
Its DepositorS Become Alarmed
 and Want Their Money
ALL ACCOUNTS ARE PAID
Fright Started From Rumor That the Bank Had Suspended Because Doors Were Closed On Washington's
 Birthday-No Help Needed.

Detroit, Mich, February A-A run was started on the Jefferson Avenue branch of the Dime Savings Bank about noon today and soon after o'clock it spread to the bank itself, at the corner of Griswold and Fort streets. Depositors were paid as fast as the accounts could be looked up and the currency could be counted out At 5 o'clock the regular hour for closing the bank, it was crowded with anxious de- positors, and the line of people who wanted to close their accounts extended through the door and some distance down Fort street. Instead of closing the bank the directors decided to hold open until o'clock. The receiving teller and his as- sistant dropped their usual work and as- sisted In paying the depositors. Until 6 O clock accounts were closed as rapidly as possible. At that hour the line of peo- pie waiting for admission to the bank extended down Fort street for almost a block. President Livingston addressed them from the steps of the bank and said that while the bank would now close it would open at 9 o'clock tomorrow and every depositor would be paid in full.
 It Is impossible to learn the direct cause of the run. It is said that Polish depositor at the Jefferson avenue branch saw a sign on the door Saturday an- nounoing that the bank was closed be- cause of it's being Washington's birth day and a legal holiday He is said to have spread the report that the bank had closed and thereby frightened the depositors at the branch. The news of the run there gradually spread downtown and started the run on the bank itself.
 Help was immediately offered by the local banks It was declined, however, the Dime Bank having plenty of funds in their own vaults. Tonight President Livingston said to the Associated Press:
 q expect that the run will be resumed tomorrow, but 1 hope that we can break it by tomorrow night. We have ample funds on hand. and if necessary could have sufficient money in the bank in 4S hours to pay every depositor in full. None of our commercial accounts have been withdrawn, the nervousness being con fined entirely to the savings depositors

Fun With the Bank of England.

From the New York Times.
 J. Pierpont Morgan Is the hero of an anecdote repeated at a recent meeting in the headquarters of the steel trust, and if not apocryphal, illustrates a bent of humor hitherto unsuspected in the banker.
 While in London he visited the Bank of England with a large currency note for which he wished to obtain gold. The tell CT examined the note and handed it back.
 You have not endorsed it." he said. glad of an opportunity to occupy an atti- tuGt.
 "Is this not payable on demand?" asked MT. Morgan, stimulating surprise.
 'Yes, if indorsed' '-haughtily.
 The magnate drowned. q am very care full whose notes l indorse," he said, with mock severity.
 "Do you challenge the Bank of Eng land?" gasped the clerk, gazing upon the visitor as upon blasphemer.
 If you are solvent, why do you want my name on your paper?'
 The glare of suspicion with accompan- jed the words was too much for the clerk; he stared speechlessly.
 Very we'll" continued the magnate, with vigor; i've will let 1t go to pro- test"
 The petrified clerk looked alarmed about it but could offer nothing in reply except a mumbled and ridiculous assur- ance that the bank was not in distress. Then MT. Morgan smiled and indorsed the note.

Pittsburg, February 24-An important meeting began here today in which the Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Chicago and Pittsburg baseball clubs are taking part They meet in compliance with the demand of A. G. spalding who wants to ascertain how these clubs stand on the question of continuing their support of Spalding as president of the National League
 In letter demanding this conference Spalding has placed his resignation as president in the hands of President Bar ney Dreyfuss. of the Pittsburg club, to be presented to the league in case the four clubs are not loyal in his support.
 There have been many rumors in cir culation of late regarding the stand of the Brooklyn Club in the Spalding Freed man fight. Charles H. Ebbets, according to reports, has been worrying about the money due the Brooklyn club from the National League for the purchase of the Baltimore club when the league circuit was reduced two years ago. He claims the amount is $25000. The New York club has consistently refused to pay It's share of this amount, which was to be deducted pro rata from the gate receipts.
 When both Ned Hanlon and Ebbetts re- fused to attend the recent rules confer enee at Buffalo, Spalding became suspi- cious of the Brooklyn club, Since then the money question has been brought to his attention. A circular letter to the Pitts burg. Philadelphia, Brooklyn and Chica- go clubs followed. demanding that they state their positions definitely.
 In this letter Spalding notifies the four
