LITERATURE OF THE DAY.
DIR. Emil G. Hirsch Says Much OF II
Isn't Worthy of Attention.

Chicago. Dec. 2S.--That much lltera-
ture Of the day Is not worthy Of atten-
ton that modern philosophy Is the creed
OF brutality. and that the new scnooi
OF naturalism is undermining the mo-
raj foundations OF society, We're some OF
the conclusions Of DR.. Emil q. Hltsch,
in an address lefcre the Hull House
woman's club yesterday.
Man Is much the same as he was
900 wears ago. said Or. Hrsch. The
same elemental passions. ambitions and
appetites obtain. They are the same
as those of the animals. Science has
brought us to realize this and our peep
into the workshop of nature has had a
tendency to brutalize humanity
"Our knowledge that man is only one
Of the company Of brutes has led small
men to ;each that man In all things Is
merely a brute. In their desire to unity
the world they have jumped at the con-
cmsion that man is no different from
the other creatures that tenant the
earth In their passion To show him as
d beast, philosophers and authors have
reveled in vice and depravity calling
1t realism.
Society Is drifting without compass.
IL is period of transition; the old can-
ons are gone ana the new ones nave
not vet been found. The latest an
uollncement OF modern philosophy Is
that you may 10 what you want TO, but
don't get caught at II. II you do,
commit suicide. In this philosophy Of
brutality you have an explanation for
the fact that literature always paints
life as struggle between the forces
OF desire and duty.
Never before in the history Of the
world was there so great need Of
masters. Men who will interpret life
in terms OF sanity and sanctity, of duty
and righteousness.

BRIDE AND GROOM COLORED.
Contracting Parties Are Miss
Bertha Lewis and Preston
F. RuCker.
Girl is But sixteen Years of Age ana
Had to Get the Consent Of
Her Guardian.

Very few courtrooms in the Land per-
haps have had as unique a dedication
as did the new Juvenile courtroom ON
the main door Of the city and county
building this morning. The dedicatory
services consisted Of a marriage cere-
mony between a young colored girl,
who has been a charge Of the court
for the past TWO weeks, and her dusky
lover. The girls name is Bertha Lewis
and the name Of the groom is Preston
+. Rucker. a Pullman car porter from
ST. Louis The ceremony was performed
by Rev, Benjamin Young of the FRS.
Methodist church in the private Office
OF Judge Brown and WAS witnessed by
the guardian OF the bride and several OF
the col0red friends Of the contracting
parties and by officers and attaches OF
the court and the newspaper represen
tatives.
About two weeks ago the girl, who Is
only IL years of age. called at the
court ana complained Of the conduct
of her guardian, Mrs. Estelia Mont
gomery Finley, and asked for the pro-
lection OF the court. The woman was
appointed guardian OF the bride in Colo
RADIO and had opposed her marriage To
Rucker. When the girl told her story
she was placed IN charge of a proba-
ton officer and then negotiations We're
opened up with her guardian With u
view to getting her consent for the girl
10 marry the man of her choice.
The negotiations We're successful and
this morning the bride and groom-elect
called at the juvenile court and were
soon followed by Mrs. Finley, who had
decided to withdraw her objections to
the marriage. The parties In interest
went up to the county clerks office,
where license was issued. The guar
dian gave her consent In writing and
was there to sign the same in the
presence of County Commissioner Mil
Ter and Probation OFFICER NJ. NJ. Woods.
After tho license was issued they re-
turned to the Office OF Judge Brown,
where Rev Young performed the cere-
mony and the incident was brought TO a
close.
The court then took up its regular
course of business and thus the new
courtroom. which was opened today for
the first time, was started on its career.
