MEETING OF FIRST VOTERS.
P. E. G. LalIY and Judge Conner
Address Fair Audience at the City
Hall Friday Night.

AT reception of ladies held in Cres-
ton short time ago, the guests were
presented with Roosevelt and Parker
badges, they being allowed to make
their own choice, Fifty badges were
used for Roosevelt and three for lar
ker.
The first open meeting of the Roose.
velt First Voters club was held at the
city hall last Friday evening. The
town had been we'll billed for the
event, announcing speech by Mr.. p.
E G. Lally as the principal feature of
the program. and surprisingly good
audience was present in spite of the
rain anu mud. A number of young lad
les, no doubt anticipating the time in
the near future when they may be call
ed upon to assist in administering the
affairs of state. lent their presence to
the occasion.
The meeting was called to order by
DR.. R 0. McConnaughey. president of
the club. and the speaker was intro
duced by j. H. Walker. Mr.. Lally did
not make an address of any great
length, as he had had no time to pre-
pare a speech or even to think of what
he was going to say. Consequently his
remarks were extemporaneous. He
congratulated the young men upon the
stand they had taken in politics in thus
allying themselves with the party of
progress. He called attention to the
splendid past record of the republican
party and also the record and the won
dersul personality of the present ad-
ministration. He also took up one or
two OF the issues raised by the demo-
cratic party and showed their incon
sistency' He spoke in convincing
and entertaining manner and all we're
sorry that he did not speak at greater
length.
AT the close OF Mr.. Lally's address
Judge Conner was called on for
speech He responded with good grace.
He compared the records of the two
great parties and showed that every
policy which has been advanced by the
republican party has tended toward the
upbuilding of this country, while every
doctrine upheld by the democratic par
ty has tended toward its deterioration
and destruction and was either shot to
death in the Civil War or hasIbeen voted
to death at the polls, and now lies in the
great democratic grave yard.
The club intends to hold another
public meeting next Friday evening,
notice of which is given in another
place.

ANIMAL TALES.

A wealthy Frenchman has started
home for aged animals at his country
place and now has a mule seventy
three years old, goose thirty seven

A Milford Haven Englan0 trawler

STYLE IN WRITING.
An Incident That Showed How Well
Choate Knew De Quincy.

1t is the fashion to laugh gently at
any claim If special sense for style
in writing. Most people really believe
that MIR. Brown and Mr.. Johneon will
order car load Of potatoes in substan-
ttally the same words and that Lord
Bacon and Master Shakespeare wrote
enough alike to deceive their dearest
friends. But occasionally one comes
upon an illustration that goes to prove
style in writing is as distinctive to the
trained eye as color Is.
Many years ago James T. Fields was
making collection of the writings Of
De Quincy. The essays We're widely
scattered in various periodicals and
were often hard to Identify. Mr.
Fields knew Rufus Choate as a devot-
ed student of De Quincy and wrote
him one day asking his opinion as to
certain article. Was it by De Quin-
cey or not?
Mr.. ChOate replied that it certainly
was. There could be no mistaking the
style of the piece. A few weeks later
Mr.. Choate received, through Mr..
Fields, a letter from De Quincy deny
Ing absolutely and somewhat indig-
nantly the authorship of the article
But Choate was not of the stuff to
yield his opinion for trifie like that.
He wrote to Mr.. Fields:
Il still believe that De Quincy wrote
the essay, De Quincy to the contrary
Notwithstanding"
Doubtless Mr.. Fields read the note
with. smiling comment, That's just
like Choate's confidence in his own
Judgment"
Months elapsed. One day there came
letter from De Quincy containing
humble apology for his previous blum

TO RETAIN YOUTH.

Simply refuse to grow old by not
counting your years or anticipating old
age.
Refrain from all kinds of stimulants
and sedatives. They will shorten your
life.
Keep in the sunlight. Nothing beau
tiful or sweet grows or ripens in the
darkness.
Avoid fear in all it's varied forms Of
expression. 1t is the greatest enemy
of the human race.
Avoid excesses Of all kinds. They
are injurious. The long life must be a
temperate, regular life.
Cultivate the spirit of contentment
All discomfort and dissatisfaction bring
age burrows prematurely to the face.
Don't be too ambitious. The can1er
of an overvaulting ambition has eaten
up the happiness of many life and
shortened its years.-Success.

TRAIN AND TRACK.

The Lake Shore and Michigan South
ern is experimenting on one Of its
branch lines with gasoline motor
coach.
About 10 per cent of the fuel used by
the Paris, Lyons and Mediterranean
railroad Is slack and dust from the
coal mines pressed into briquettes by
the company.
Tests of trolley lines without rails
which have been made in Germany
and France show that while the initial
cost Of such electric roads is small
the operating expenses are very heavy.
The annual report of the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit company shows that
eightyseven persons were killed in ac-
cidents upon its lines in the year which
ended on June 80, 1904, and 2o4 were

THE LECTURE COURSE
Seven Excellent Numbers on
The Course.
FIRST NUMBER TUESDAY.
The Committee Has Spent Much
Time in Securing the Best Talent
in This Years Course.

Lecture course patrons will be pleas
ed to learn that the committee has
secured most excellent course for the
coming season. Last year there was
was no lecture course given and this
year finds the public mind hungry for
something of this sort. Heretofore the
lectures have proven very entertaining
as we'll as of great educational value
and this years course will be fully
equal to the others in these respects
The committee has spared no time nor
pains in securing the best talent the
country over for the course, as will be
seen by the following list.
Father LII. Vaughan, Oct. IL.
Pictorial Story of Hiawatha, Nov. rs.
Salisbury's Orchestra. Jan. ID.
Temple Male Quartette, Feb. s.
Sunshine Hawks, Feb. 81.
Ernest Thompson Seton March 2.
Leland 7. Powers, April 20.
1t is said OF Father Vaughan that as
dramatic orator he has no superior,
as an interpreter of Shakespearean
characters he equals many of the great
actors of the day. and that during his
lecture there is not dull sentence,
nor moment that is not charged with
magnetic power.
The pictorial story of Hiawatha as
given by Katherine Ertz-Bowen is a
novel, artistic and pleasing presenta-
tion of the poem as dramatized by the
Ojibway Indians. The moving pictures
used at the entertainment are unequal
ed for smoothness and beauty.
Sparkling with wit and humor,
teeming with Sunshine and smiles.
fitly describes the lecture of the
Laughing Philosopher" Sunshine
Hawks"
OF the Salisbury Orchestra it need
eniy be- said that they have charmed
Denisou audience before and are now
better than ever. Ably Rose Wood,
soprano appears with this company.
The most noted naturalist and
student of wild animal life of the day,
Ernest Thompson Seton, will give
one of his inimitable lectures on ami
mails, MIR. Seton is without doubt the
greatest living naturalist. He has
written numerous articles on animals
for the Ladies Home Journal and a
number of his books are in our school
and city libraries. His lecture will
interest both old and young.
The committee count themselves
fortunate in having been able to secure
for Denison the famous Temple Male
Quartette. This organization has been
before the public for twenty-five years
and stands the peer of any to-day.
The work of Leland Powers presents
the best of the drama in the purest
form, free from all unwholsomeness
and false theatrical atmosphere. 1t is
absorbing, cleansing. and inspiring, a
recreation unequalled.
The first lecture on the course will
be given by Father Vaughan Tuesday
evening, Oct. IL. Season tickets are
now on sale at Johnson's and Casa
days and they will be reserved Friday,
Oct. I at Johnsons book store.
