precedence over the educational fea-

a large majority hope to find the col

WHAT WOMEN
: WANT TO KNOW

To Remove Paint.-Is there any way
beside scraping to remove the paint
from an old chest? It seems as tho it
would be an endless task to scrape it,
and I am lazy enough to want to find
an easier way, if possible.-Dollie.
You are a wise woman to save your
strength wherever it is possible. To
remove the paint, dissolve one-half
cup of washing soda in a pint of warm
water and wet the chest thoroly with
the solution and then go over it with
stiff scrubbing brush. Rinse well with
clear water and dry before you try
to refnish it.
Pink Summer Gowns.I have per-
feet passion for pink summer gowns in
spite Of the fact that they fade to a
dirty white before the season is over.
It occurred to me that you might know
Of something that would prevent some
Of the fading-Reader.
Try this: After your pink gowns
are washed. rinse them in liquid made
by pouring boiling water over small
piece Of turkey-red cheesecloth. Ex-
perience will quickly teach you how
much will give the desired color. Let
this stand until the color is out Of the
cheesecloth and then pour the dye into
bucket Of cold water, in which put
your pink gown for perhaps an hour.
Then wiring out lightly and hang up to
dry.

daughter of the man who founded the
hardware establishment of Hubbard,
Spencer, Bartlett & Co. She is one OF
the leading figures in Chicago society
and is reputed to be worth between

who died eighteen months ago, was one
Of the best-known exhibitors of horses
in this country, and Mrs. Cation has al,
way been an enthusiast on the subject
Of horses. She has ridden and driven
shows, and is able to hold the reins in
coach driving, as well as to follow the
hounds thru cross-country courses on
spirited mounts. She is handsome and
vivacious, and very fond Of society. Mr.
Field, on the other hand, has always
been an unobtrusive and secretive man
of affairs, with little inclination for the
pastimes Of the smart set.

Cation and Marshall Field Of
Chicago was one Of the most
simple ceremonies ever pronounced in
the precincts of Westminster Abbey.
Without so much as a professional
hymn, the wedding party advanced
toward the altar, in front Of which the
stately bride took her place second in
advance of the bridegroom.
Modest tho the BRIDES gown was, it
was a Paris creation and was Of gray
silk China crepe trimmed with broad
bands Of chiffon velvet and of silver
embroidery. She wore large hat of
white, with ostrich feathers dropping
over her jet black hair.
The bride s ornaments, in the nature
of precious gems, consisted of large,
magnificent pearl earrings, a priceless
pearl framed in irregularly cut dia-
monds fastened at her throat, a gift
from, the merchant prince, and a dia-
mo mond clasp that enclosed nc a, small
Fields favorite flower, and therefore
it was in gallantry that the bridegroom
wore one in the lapel of his coat.

AS the bride and bridegroom and
their mutual friends departed, Canon
Henson was observed to smile. In his
hand he held something that had a

| in American money, the largest wedding
fee, it is said, ever receivedeby a clergy

The wedding gifts were modest, with
the exception of flowers, and the latter
represented the most elaborate creations

devise.

URGE ACCEPTANCE
Of OFFERED SITE
SECOND WARD OBJECTS TO
MAYORS ACTION
Veto Message Discussed Section by
Section by Joseph Mesmer-coun-
ciImen Make Ad-
dresses

From the large number of residents
of the Second ward who filled the au-
ditorium of Temperance temple last
night it was evident that the hope is
growing that the city will eventually
accept the free city hall site on North
Main street The meeting had been
called to protest against the action of
the mayor in vetoing the ordinance
passed by the council accepting the
site and to devise some legitimate
means of securing the seventh vote
necessary to pass the measure over the
mayors veto. To this end a committee
composed of r. w. Drumbo of the
First ward, M. S. Gregory of the Sec
ond ward and Lawrence Holmes of the
Third ward was appointed to call on
Councilmen Hitler and Houghton and
try to show them the true light. Coun-
Gilman Smith was given up as hope
less task.
The meeting was held under the aus
pices of the Civic alliance of the Sec
ond ward, and A. A. Bayley, president
of the alliance, was the first speaker.
Mr. Bayley used the fact of portion
Of the balcony of the mayors office
Ealing away as one of his most power
=
why, the old pile is tumbling about
the very ears of those who are COM
pelled to use it, said Mr.. Bayley.
"Councilman Kern and Police Justice
Chambers were nearly killed this af-
.ernoon by several large stones falling
from the mayors balcony. There are
other parts of the building that are
as unsafe as the balcony. and the
building superintendent has declared
that the structure is not safe one
It will be necessary to erect a new
building very soon, and now is the log
cal time to do it and the North Main
street location is the logical place to
put it"
Joseph Mesmer was one of the prin-
,ipal speakers of the evening, and at
the request of the chairman repeated
most of his arguments made before thu
Civic alliance at it's meeting last Satur'
Law evening. He again took the veto
message of the mayor section by sec
ton, and refuted every argument that
the mayor had advanced. Judge VIII
D. Gould followed Mr.. Mesmer ana
showed how the Plaza was the geo.
era phical center of the city and its
vicinity the proper place for the city
hall. Lawrence Holmes and Council
nen Healy and Harmon were among
the speakers.
An interesting feature was a large
drawing shown on the platform of how
that portion of the city would appear
when the new federal building was fin
ished and the city hall built in the
vicinity. The drawing showed the
court house within easy reach and the
federal building and city hall side by
side. each building occupying sep
arate block If the proposition is put
to a vote 1t is the intention to have
copies of the drawing made and used in
the campaign.

MUSIC AND
TIE DRAMA
Present Browning Play

At the Mason opera house yesterday
afternoon Miss Eleanor Robson, Miss
Ada Dwyer and II. B. Warner pre-
sented Robert Browning's fragmentary
drama, I'm a Balcony" 1t was an al
most ideal presentment of this famous
poem and 1t is doubtful If a better in
depreciation of Constance could be
given. For never a moment was the
exquisite picture marred in any man
ner. From the time the curtain rose,
discovering Constance dreaming alone
in the moonlit balcony, like figure In
a Maxfield Parrish painting, the har-
mony was unbroken and Browning g
mellifluous periods rolled forth with a
perfect artistic effect. 1t made the
small audience wonder why the major
ity preferred the ponderous efforts of
Ibsen and Shaw at reforming the race
for their special matinee" pabulum.
Miss Robson proved that she is not
a one part actress. Her conception of
the character of the whole drama, of
which only this fragment was finished,
was brought forth with the same sure
ness and graceful art which she shows
In Merely Mary Ann" character as
widely different from Constance as the
poles from one another.
Her quiet effective methods are mar
velous and place her alone among the
players of her time. Every pose, ges-
ture and tone Is placed to speak vol
umes and the result is startling nat
uralness.
II. b. Warner made Norbert a real
ity and In the costume he was dis
played to even better advantage than
In "Merely Mary Ann" Miss Ada
Dwyer was excellent as the queen.
