WOOED AND WON GIRL
HAD KNOWN AN HOUR
Daughter of Wealthy Farmer Falls
in Love at First Sight With
Itinerant Salesman.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 20.-From
the parish Of Plaquemines, on the left
bank Of the Mississippi, comes the
story of the briefest courtship on rec
ord.
An hour after Miss Louise Lafeau
formed the acquaintance of Charles
Whisper, a drummer, they. eloped.
Miss Lafeau is the pretty seventeen
year-old daughter of Francis Lafeau.
a prosperous farmer. For long time
the young men of the neighborhood
on the lower coast where she lived
had been struggling for Miss Lafeau's
affections, but she turned deaf ear
to ALL Her lovers were numbered by
the scores, and came from miles away
to cast themselves at the feet OF the
unyielding beauty.
Miss Lafeau often saw strange,
handsome young mad ride past her
house. His visits to the neighbour
hood became regular. With her it
seemed to ha love at first sight. She

the chest and back strong. A weak
heart or unsound lungs soon tell their
tale if the owner enters the fencing
class, for there must be plenty of wind
and endurance.
And so the reader will see plainly
that grace, suppleness, bright eyes and
healthy compilations may be bought,
and with good eyes, skin and figure
the happy possessor is well on the high
road to beauty Of a less evanescent
and more lasting quality than that
beauty to which the owner is born and
which terminates with early youth.
This beauty is the price Of labor and
persistence, and like many other things
to be gained only by persevering,
Is An Aid to Beauty.
When the physical culturist has adj
ded a course of Delsarte to her exer-
cises she bids fair to become fascin-
ating, and it is plainly said that the
little affair of the Crown Prince and
Miss Gladys Deacon is not the first
time in his history that the suscep-
tible young man has been touched by
an American girl, and that in the not
long ago Miss Geraldine Farrar, the
pretty actress, made a terrible dent in
the royal organ, if she did not alto
gether fracture it. And all by strictly
Delsartian methods. She is, it will be
remembered an actress, and the Empe-
ror William was SO struck by her
pretty, graceful and appropriate ges-
lures that he had her give private
exhibition of emotions from various
characters she had played, then he
asked her to pose impromptu at his
bidding in suggestive poses and with
out hesitation, as the royal host gave
the word she in turn illustrated

so slzillfully that the great kaiser told
her she was a fine actress and a ge-
MUS. But all this while the Grown
Prince had been using his eyes too,
and where his eyes rested there fol-
lowed his heart, so gossips said.
And yet though physical culture is
modern it is perhaps just revival of
the old Roman and Greek exercises
and games, and it may be that those
famous beauties Of ancient days owed
some Of their fascination to physical
culture.

lists in connection with the industry
in the whole country. We pay one mil
lion a year for coal-tar color products,
and spend over three millions year
on imported dyestuffs,, all of which we
are in a better position to manufacture
ourselves. Prof. Won Baeyer, of Mu-
Mich, referring to the German triumph,
says:
Makes Good Use of Coal Tar.
at is one of the most singular phe-
nomena in the domain of Industrial
chemistry that the chief industrial ma
ton and the most practical people In
the world has been beaten in the en-
deaVor to turn to profitable account
the coal tar which it possesses. We
must not, however, rest upon our oars,
for we may be sure that England,
which at present looks on quietly While
we purchase her tar and convert it
into colors, selling them to foreign ma
lions at high prices, will unhesitatingly
cut off the source of supply as soon as
all technical difficulties have been sur
mounted by the eXertionS of German
manufactures"
1t is tWenty-four years since the Ger
man professor issued this warning
about our awakening, and we are still
more asleep than ever, and completely
handicapped in one important branch
of our industry by the success Of scien-
tific methods in Germany. The Ger
mans can now find substitutes for our
raw material; we are dependent on
their colors. Benjamin White. r

Church of the Good Shepherd. We
are glad to have the poor join our
church. We are glad to welcome them
to our services"
They Are Not Welcome.
eff the poor were made welcome
in the churches there would be no
need for city missions" said Rev.
David Morgan, Of the Bethel. Gun
fortunately they are not made well
come. They are not wanted. Not
long ago a minister on the West side
went down to the flats and invited
the people there to come up to his
church. None of them seemed will
ing to avail themselves of the invita-
ton but he finally prevailed upon a
few Of them to accept. They only
went to the church twice. They real
lied instinctively that the we'll dressed
people there resented their presence
and it wasn't fancy on their part,
either. Those we'll dressed men and
women did not want the poor in their
church. Now If that is the case in
the Sixth ward how much more must
it be the case in the more aristocratic
wards of the city. Not so long ago
a st. Paul church started a series of
revival meetings. I asked one Of the
trustees one day how those meetings
were progressing and he said: o,
not well at all. Only servant girls
come and of course we don't want that
class of people, Another trustee said
precisely the same thing.
"They Smell So Badly"
"Just the other day I was talking
with a minister in regard to this very
subject and he said that his people OBJ
Jected to the poor in their church be-
cause they smelt so badly. Those

Sunday are not. able to entirely re-
move the marks of the weeks drudg-
cry. Mind you, do not think that
ministers resent the presence of the
poor in their churches. Indeed, I am
sure the majority would gladly well
come them but the weather. class
of people don't want them. The fault
lies in the fact that the churches are
little more than social clubs. The
Catholic church has the advantage
over the other churches, for 1T teaches
that man to save his soul must go
to church The rule applies to the
poor as well as to the rich. There
right in the church and his rich
brethren acknowledge that right.
There should be no need of city mis-
slons but SO long as the churches re-
fuse welcome to the poor, the mis-
sions must offer. them a refuge.
Says Poor Are Welcomed.
Certainly the poor are welcomed

pins of the Mount Zion synagogue
People are too apt to confuse the
social side of the churches with the
spiritual side. The question of caste
must enter into all gatherings and the
churches are no exception to this
rule. But that only concerns the
social side of the church. The ser
mons and the instructions are FOR the
poor and the rich alike, and the man
who is preacher and instructor is
usually glad to welcome ali classes.

sure, begrudge the poor a share in
the church. On the contrary many
of them put themselves to some in
convenience to make the poor feel at
home. At least, this has been my ex-
perience in pastoral work"
Changed the Scheme.
'I cannot speak for any Of the other
churches in the city. I can only tell
you what we are doing to meet this
problem in the First Baptist church,"
was Rev. II. F. Stilwell's response to
the query. "Originally, this church
was built for an aristocratic congre-
cation. The building is a fine one and
the appointments are rich and in good
taste. Until three years ago it could
have been called distinctly a rich
mans church. Then those in charge
began to consider seriously the mat
ter of reaching the poor. Pew rent
was dispensed with. There were no
taxes. Even the formal chorus choir
was replaced by congregational sing
ing. Committees were appointed
whose business it was to invite the
poor to the church. Ushers were in
structed to give them special con-
siderauon. AS a consequence we now
number among our most valuable
members some of the poorest people
in the city. We have been aided in
this work by the wealthy members,
too. I have never noticed a DISPOSE
ton on the part Of any member Of
my congregation to look down upon
man or woman who was not dressed
well or who showed their poor station
in any way. think it is true that in
the churches frequented almost ex-
clusively by the very wealthy the
poor feel they have no welcome but
I fancy this is caused more by the
display of wealth that always intimi-
dates the poor rather than by the
actions of the rich members"

LONDON, Sept. 2O.-The recently
published statement of Sir Alfred
Bateman, statistician of the London
Board of Trade, in reference to the
comparative condition of British. Ger
man and American commerce and IN
duStry, which he couples with popula-
lions for his own purpose, does not
throw any more hopeful light on the
situation here.
1t merely bears out, with certain pal
liations, the facts given out by the
London technical education board
showing how fast Great Britain is go
ing down the hill and will continue go
ing unless steps are promptly taken
90 offset foreign competition.
The lack of technical education and
scientific research into manufacturing
methods is at the bottom of England's
trouble in this direction, and the rival
who is absorbing her business through
having devoted money and time to
these things is Germany.
Capture of the Color Trade.
One of the important points which
the report specifies England is beaten
or is the capture of the color trade by
Germany, which is now complete. The
report says:
"Most of the colors and dyes used in
the county councils leather tanning
and dyeing school at Bermondsey are
of foreign manufacture; 80 per cent Of
the colors used by the Bradford manu-
features comes from Germany; Eng
lish dyers use only 10 per cent of Eng
lish dyeing materials; the English
Sewing Cotton company buys 80 per
cent of it's coloring matter abroad. Yet
thirty years ago we were the first
country for the manufacture of coal
tar colors. We began the industry;
now not more than half million is in
vested in it in this country -Four firms
in Germany alone have a combined
capital of nearly three and a quarter
millions; them employ 468 chemists, 317
engineers dyers and other technical
experts, they have commercial staff
of 1858 and employ 1880 working
people. Their average dividend is 20
per cent. We have not so many chem

slowly so as not to tire herself. Put
ting on flesh is often more difficult
than taking it off, but both require I'M
firing zeal and the great secret of sue
cess is regularity and persistence.
Then the eyes grow bright with
health, the complexion cleans and
CLOVIS with vitality and the move
ments from being slow, sluggish and
clumsy, become quick, alert and grace
full. Strength and grace are one and
the same said a famous German pro-
fessor who expressed it as follows:
Grace is the outcome of the Consum-
mate strength"
No one can be graceful without well
trained and developed muscles; weak
ness is shaky and certain strength is
quick and accurate.
Exercises for the Abnormal.
Beside the exercises for the normal
woman there are also now exercises
and exercising apparatus for the abb
normal, the undeveloped and the de-
formed. Flat chest, undeyeloped legs
and arms and curvatures each have a
special apparatus for their correction
and there are ankle, wrist and finger
apparatus that are certain to produce
a beneficial result in at least three
months. Wand exercises give strength
to the back and chest while club swing
ing does the same, beside calling into
play several other sets of muscles.
And all this is comparatively modern,
for Ludwig Jahn was the first to found
a gymnasium for men. He was a Ger
man and established the first gymna-
sum at Hasnheide, Berlin, in1S48. Then
this was followed by one for girls and
now most of the Turn Vereins have put
in apparatus and today here in Mime
sofa the $40 Turner societies have some
gymnasium appliances or undertake
physical culture in some form, and all
the Y: M. c. A. are so equipped.
Fencing Is Popular.
Fencing this year will be more pop
ular than ever, so the teachers say.
1t is pretty, graceful exercise and de-
velops many fine qualities of body
and mind. The fencer must be quick
of eye, wrist and foot movement, alert
and wide awake for any unexpected
move on the part of the opponent; the
wrist must be strong and supple, and

Are the poor welcome in the
churches Of st. Paul? Last Sunday
there was published in T h e G o b e a
signed editorial by Rev. George L. Nc
Mutt, in which he declared that there
! was no room for the poor in the
churches of the large cities. T h
G l o b e has interviewed a number Of
St Paul pastors in regard to local con-
ditions, and this is what they say:
Are the poor welcome in the
churches Of ST. Paul? Theoretically,
I should answer yes to that; practical
ly, I should most emphatically say
no." said Dr. RAIDER, of the First Meth
odist church. "Well-to-do people, that
is, the majority of them, do not want
the poor in their churches. They make
no effort to get them there and when
they come they either ignore them, or,
what is worse, patronize them. Both
attitudes are resented by the poor and
consequently they stay away from
church. do not think there is a min
lister of any denominations minister

went out into the highways and the
byways and gathered together for serv-
ice all they could find, but as those
early church members grew in pros
perity and as prosperous members
joined the church it grew away from
the poor.
Prosperity Hurts Salvationists.
"Three years ago the Salvation Army
was doing the work the Methodist
church did when it was first started.
But the Salvation Army, too, is be-
coming prosperous and in many cities
it's influence over the poor has de-
parted. The Catholic church Is the
only church know where the poor and
the rich are alike made welcome, and
believe the reason for this is that
there is no social side to the Catholic
church. 1t is primarily place of wor-
ship and nothing more.
"Undoubtedly the churches will go
back to the poor. The further away
church gets from it's poor the fur

the poor will be made cordially well

Good Shepherd, that the poor are
