GIRL SWALLOWS POISON
PRETTY LODGER AT THE WINDSOR
HOTEL WAS IN DANGER.
Laura Strange Discovered by the jan
itress I'm Commissions from Eff
fects OF the Drug.

Miss Laura Strange, a pretty young wom-
an of tweny-four, roomng in the Wind
sor Hotel on North Illinois street, swal-
lowed two ounces of strychnia last night
with suicidal intent and was in I'M
conscious condition when Drs. Cunning
ham and Seaton, OF the City Dispensary
were called and revived her. The girl was
respondent because of being away from her
home.
She was found lying across her bed last
night shortly after z O'Clock by the colored
janitress. AT that time Miss Strange was
in violent commissions. After unsuccessful
ly trying to recuscitate her, the janitress
called the Dispensary physicians who sue
ceeded in saving her life after working
with her for two hours. The woman was
sent to the hospital where her condition,
though not critical, is serious.
Mystery surrounds the reason for TAX
ing the drug. Miss Strange has been liv-
ing at the hotel but two weeks and was
known only by sight to the other roomers.
The attaches of the hotel said that they
did not know what Miss Strange's occu-
patton was. She was too i'll at the hospital
to give any explanation of her actions.
She will recover.

in MEMORY OF EMERSON
SERVICES HELD BY THE NEW ALL
SOULS UNITARIAN CHURCH.
In Other Pulpits OF the City Sermons
Were Preached I'm Honor of the
Sage of Concord.

Services in commemoration. of the one
hundredth anniversary of the birth of Ralph
Waldo Emerson were held yesterday after
noon by the congregation of the All Souls
Unitarian Church at the Hebrew Temple,
at Delaware and Tenth streets. The Rev.
E. E. Newbert, formerly of Augusta, Me-,
who has just been sent to the pastorate of
the congregation by the Unitarian Associa-
ton, of Boston, spoke the influence Of
Emerson in the emancipation of the thought
of the nineteenth century.
Before the talk Emerson's Concord Hymn
was sung by the congregation. after which
were read selections from the works of EN-
erson. showing his Interpretation of the
gospel. Mr.. Newbert took his text from
Emerson: II love prophet of the SOUL"
He dwelt briefly on the poverty of Emer-
sons early life, but he said: 1T does not
matter when great souls are born or when
they die; sufficient is it that they live
Relative to an accusation that Emerson
is a pocket edition Of Thomas Carlyle. he
said the charge was false The two men
had begun to shape itself before he met Car
lyle. In speaking Of his place in the thought
of the world Mr.. Newbert said that Emerson
had grouped around him the greatest body
of men in the worlds history, whose work
has brought present freedom of thought.
THE intellect" he affirmed, began to be
free in the fifteenth century, and has be-
come totally free to-day. Emerson is one
of the men whose influence has been great
est"
According to the speaker. he shaped the
thought of the nineteenth century. He said
Emerson was Unitarian and his creed was
Unitarian, and he startled the world when
he announced that Jesus Christ was not
the son of God but the son of man. But
this gospel helped to Danish fear and super
stition out of the world, and put an end to
the belief In the supernatural. The three
men who did the most in this respect and
their representative addresses, Mr.. New
bert thought. were: DR.. Claiming and his
sermon at Baltimore in 1919 outlying the
Unitarian creed in America; Theodore Par
ker and his plea In Boston in 1S41 for ra-
tional thinking; Ralph Waldo Emerson and
his divinity school address before the the
illogical students Of Cambridge in 1885,
Emerson" said the speaker will be
appreciated and commemorated in the CEN
turtles to come as the emancipation OF the
human mind"
The talk closed with a description of a
visit to Concord and Sleepy Hollow, where
Emerson is buried. At the conclusion of the
sermon solo was sung by Mrs. Swain.
Among the decorations were flowers from
the bulbs which were brought from the
Emerson yard al Concord, and which Mrs
Emerson brought from her home in Plym-
outh.

more serious literature are not overlooked.
The History of the New Harmony Com

of Peru, now private secretary TO Governor
Durbin, has been the subject of many care
full and extended reviews in British news
papers and magazines, the connection OF
Robert Owen and his sons with that So

element of interest for them in the volume.
The work has been very favorably received

GENTRY BROS SHOW.
1t VIII Begin Weeks Engagement
To-Day-Lfne of Parade

Gentry Brothers trained animal shows are
In indianapolis to-day and will be here
all week. Early yesterday morning, as
the animal actors, one by one, alighted
from the special train of palace cars, the
small boys cheered and the little girls gig
gled. and the older folks looked long and
wisely on the many dogs, ponies camels
and elephants which. by their learning sa-
gacious and amusing qualities have made
the Gentry brothers famous. The rise Of
the Gentry brothers is matter of wonder
TO casual onlookers. Fifteen years ago
the four boys started out in the amuse-
ment world with nothing but a bunch OF
common sense. energy and brains, allied
with the knack of training animals by
Kindness alone, better. perhaps. than one
trainer. That they have been successful
Is well-known fact

TAKE CUE FROM PARRY
ORDERS OF RAILWAY EMPLOYEES
MAY FORM GENERAL UNION.
First Meeting in This Direction Held
in This City-Unity Of Pur-
pose Demanded.

Representatives of several railway mems
unions met last night in the hall of the
Order of Railway Conductors on North
Delaware street and discussed the advis-
ability of forming a grand union Of rail-
way employees in Indiana for the pupose of
combating the association of manufactur-
ers and employers OF labor who are or
ganizing in pursuance to advice given all
employers of labor in the United States
by d. NJ. Parry, president of the National
Association of Manufacturers. A number
of men gathered at the meeting last night
and discussed the prospects Of success
in forming such an organization and from
the expressions made in the hall it was seen
that the trainmen favor the movement and
may accomplish something in this direc-
ton. Another meeting will be held next
Sunday night to which will be invited
representatives from all railway unions and
lodges in the city and If the sense of that
meeting is that the project be favored by
the railway men a date for a state meet
ing will be appointed and all unions in the
State will be invited to send delegates to
it.
ization was taken by the leaders when
the conclusion WAS reached that If laboring
men wish TO fight combinations of capital
and industry for their rights there must
effort would avail nothing IL made against
an employer who was associated with all
others In his line of business in the dis
trict In which the trouble occurred, but
where the laboring men stood together in
classes and were so closely allied in pur-
pose that the action of one body would be
an expression for all, the associa tons of
employers would be met on more equal
ground.
A move ment such as was proposed at the
special melting last night is being discussed
and proposed in all parts of the country
The trades unions now nearly thor
oughly organized and there are few trades
in this section of the country where union
ism does not dominate the work of the men,
The different organizations are on such
friendly relations that one would help the
other should occasion arise. The object
of the railway men is meant to bring all
classes closer together.

from the initial shipment Of twenty
five tons of ore. With everything
but the freight deducted the product
brought SAL so per ton.
Encouraging reports continue to
come from this property and Mr..
Hudson says while the shaft at the
new discovery was down only eight
feet when the last letter was dis
patched from the mine, it shows
width of about II feet, four of which
is shipping product, the same going
$65 to the ton.
"The second car load is enroute
and force of men is engaged at the
mine in sacking ore preparatory to
further shipments. If teams can be
obtained to haul the ore to Sodaville,
ten cars, Mr.. Hudson stated, will be
dispatched before another.month eX-
pires.
1t is interesting to report that IN
connection with the above the com
pany is taking out six to ten tons OF
ore daily, Nearly all of it is OF ship
ping character and the third or
fourth carload has been dispatched.
The ore is of kind very much de-
sired by the smelters, as it not only
carries a high percentage OF lead,
but also runs as high as 10 per cent
in iron, d necessary adjunct in the
smelling If silicious ores. Because
of the presence OF these elements IN
the ore the company is enabled to
get q remarkably low rate for treat
ment. the entire cost for shipment
from Lone Mountain to Salt Lake
and reduct ton at the smelter beng
only a trife in excess of SIG per ton
This rate on $40 ore, where it Is
found in large bodies, leaves q neal
balance to the producer, and as Lone
Mountain has any number OF claims
that are capable of producing ore o
this value and better, the coming
, fall should witness a large and STEADY
output from that section.
