PATRONAGE IS LARGE.
Pipe Organ Lecture Course Opened
With a Good Show

Take four good looking young wo-
men performers in pretty gowns and
they would make almost any enter
tainment success. The Chicago
Lady Entertainers who opened the
popular lecture course of the Pipe
Organ association at the Auditorium
last night had these qualifications and
others and they made good with an
audience of about two thousand peo-
pie. The Chicago Lady Entertainers
name is against them-they really
ought to change it-but otherwise
they are all right and give exactly
what they Advertise good popular
musical programme
To give an idea OF how popular it
was, every number on the programme
last night was encored once and some
of them twice. AS a rule nobody
cares for eIocution, and it doesn't
make any difference, either, whether it
is called recitation in the good old
fashioned way, given the more modern
version of a reading or the very
latest a ''melOdrama,' which includes
the idea OF a musical accompaniment
But her audience last night was de-
lighted with Mrs. EstelIe NJ Clark s
monologue and the melodramas King
Robert of Sicily, and recalled her after
both numbers. For an elocutionist
she is exceptionally good. The marvel
always is that a woman with such a
decided talent and taste for dramatic
expression doesn't find her meter in
some good theatrical Organization
where her opportunities would be so
much better and where there is a real
demand for her art.
OF the musical numbers the quar-
tetteS were perhaps the best. Besides
the elocution, Mrs. Clark is the first
contralto in the quartette. the other
parts being taken by the three other
members of the company. Miss Stella
Hitchcock and Miss Marcia Moorehead,
sopranos, and Miss Bessie Mercer, sec
ond contralto. The quartette is I'M
usually well balanced and sings with
smoOthness and precision. One of
their encores was a number included
in the repertoire of the Ladies Music
club quartette of Topeka, Patty
Stairs Minuet which they danced as
well as sang. Miss Hitchock's So
pranO solos were well received. Her
voice is light, but sweet, and bell-hke
in quality and she sings with very good
taste. Mrs. Clark has an eXtraOrd-
inarily heavy cOntralto, more like a
mans voice than a woman's but it is
smooth and melOdious and she sang
her simple ballad numbers pleasingly

Her Face Disfgured and Finger Marks
on Her Throat.

Kansas City. Mo, Nov. 4.-The dead
body of Winona Charlotte Newton.
aged Is years, daughter of Thomas
Newton, painter, was found today
beside a bridge over a small stream

nue. on the outskirts of the city The

MONEY GOES UP.
Sudden Advance in Cali Rate to 81
Per Cent.

New York. Nov 4.-There was a
slight furry in the call money mar
ket this afternoon in which the rate
rose to 6 Y per cent, as result of the
large decline in the cash reserves of
the banks indicated by the weeks cur
rency movement to the interior. The
active speculation of the week on the
stock exchange was believed to have
expanded the loan item of the banks
while the strength of foreign ex-
change kept alive discussion of posi-
BILE gold exports. A weak bank re-
turn was expected in consequence to-
morrow and belated borrowers were
obliged to advance their bids for ac-
cOulmodation.

city really needed It. why has II new

buy It? If the money has not been
paid except in the form of note. the
taxpayers are paying the interest on
it, which will Increase the cost sew

have to pay the principal sooner or
later. The city can afford to buy
burial grounds II does not need. Il
seems, but 1t can't afford the extern

THE MESSIAH OF PATRIOTISM.

"The president in the south" is the
title of an editorial from Mr.. Waiter
son in the Courier-Journal. Among
other things he said:
Certain puzzle headed newspapers
affect to see in the warm welcome
met everywhere by the president on
his journey through the south a yari
ance from the storm of indignation
which followed the Booker WASHING
ton incident. Their surprise. where
IL happens to be genuine, is the OFF
spring OF a liberalism equally with
out sympathy and Imagination, or
else IL is the Pigment of a sectional
ism which has put party spirit be-
fore all other considerations. Bigot-
ny so dense knows not the people Of
the south.
