ACTORS HONOR JANUSCHEK
Little Band of Thespians Weep Over
Bier of Dead Actress.
Simple Ceremony Was I'm Marked
Contrast to the Many Stirring
Events of Her Past Life.

New York, Dec. 3-A little band OF
actors gathered in the chape lof an
undertaker's establishment, Friday, to
take part in the funeral service over
the body of Madam Francesca Ro-
mana Januschek, once a noted actress,
who died last Wednesday in a home
on Long Island. The very simple GER
emony was in marked contrast to the
many stirring events of her long life.
1t consisted of the reading of brief
service of the Roman Catholic church.
and an eulogy by Milton Mobiles, a
member of the executive committee
of the Actors fund, which cared for
Mime. Januschek's comfort in her dy-
ing years.
In the course of his address Mr..
Mobiles said:
''If another object lesson were need
ed to impress upon us the ephemereal
quality of that substanceiess some
thing which we call fame, here 1t lies.
If this once great woman had been
summoned 20 years ago, in the zenith
Of her powers, the great ones of earth
would have been proud to do her hom-
age. Now, the only ones to do her rev.
erence is this group Of ner fellow
craftsmen, in a strange or at least a
foreign land, who knew and loved her
for herself alone"

GOV. YATES EXPLAINS
Illinois Executive Issues Statement
Regarding the Situation at
ZeiEIer.

Springfield, ILL.,, Dec. 3.-Gov. Yates,
Friday night, gave out the following
statement regarding the situation at
Zeigler, after hearing the report OF
Assistant Adjt.-Gen. Reece.
Theer is nothing to be said relative
to the presence and action OF the state
troops at Zeigler, except that two com.
panies were sent there, and are there
now, for the protection of life and the
preservation of peace.
They were sent on demand OF the
sheriff Of Franklin county, who said
in three different kilograms that he
was absolutely unable to preserve or
der. There has been no proclamation
Of martial law. The sheriff asserts that
the presence of troops is still neces-
sary. Both the adjutant-general and
assistant acknowledgement have visited
the locality.
Gen. Scott was there before the
troop was sent, and Col. Reece has
just returned, and the department is
and will be fully advised of the situa-
ton constantly by the officers in COM

ed In Gods plan of salvation and In
that the sacrifice which Christ made
wrought redemption for all the world.
The terms in which Jesus is referred
to all through the Bible from the time
when God promised Abraham that in
him should all the nations of the earth
be blessed until John came crying:
Behold the Lamb of God, which TAX
eth away the sin of the world" are
those which reach out beyond Israel
into all the world. This intensiveness
and eXtensiveness is the very heart of
the Gospel. It is the conception of the
Gospel which every Christian should
have, and it's spirit must pervade the
heart and life, if one is to do effectual
and faithful service for the Master. It
Is the man with the large vision that
aims the highest and goes the farthest.
The king who was looking for an ad-
ministrator for his kingdom examined
each aspirant for the place and asked
what We're his qualifications. Each had
much to say OF himself and what the
kingdom was to be through his admin
istration. At last there came one with
modest, quiet manner, but with a far,
deep light kindling in the eye. His
vision was not of self, but of the king
dom, his qualifications were not those
