BY SALLY SHARP.

The philanthropic days have come,
the gladdest of the year-for such as
have a little change to spare. And
somehow, in this busy Western burg,
there's always change-and to spare
for the sick and heavy-laden. And as
for suffering babies, there's no tenderer
spot on earth than San Francisco-for
note the hospitals reared for their
care. But these hospitals are not sup
ported wholly by their tiny inmates,
hence the call at times for help.
The latest bid for assistance comes
from the auxiliary of the Children's
Hospital, and behold what is offered
vaudeville potpourri to be given at
the Alhambra tomorrow night, in
which a load of smashing surprises
will be sprung.
There are to be a lot of stunts" by
smart maids and matrons, including
Mrs. Frederick Kohl, Mrs. Camille
G G'Arville- Crellin, Miss Cora Smedberg,
Miss Ethel Patton, Miss Bessie Nc
Near, Miss Genevieve King, Miss Hazel
King, Miss Matte Livermore, Mrs.
John F. Babcock Mrs. Eugene Murphy.
Mrs. Frederic Kimball, Mrs. Willard
Drown, Mrs Worthington Ames and
Miss Lucie King.
Besides the clever playlet In Toy
land" that was given with such snap
and ginger at "Meadowlands" last
summer, will be presented by the
original cast as the play bills say.
This will bring Miss Constance De
Young, Miss Pearl Landers and Miss
Helen Wagner before the footlights.
Clever? -
Just ask those who saw the affair
al the De Young garden party last
summer
Then Courtney Ford promises a
sketch that is said to be ratt1ing good,
and Mrs. Willard Drown, Mrs. George
Martin. Miss Anita Harvey, Miss Vir-
ginia Jolliffe, Miss Genevieve King,
Miss Ethel Dean, Miss Gertrude JOS
selyn, Miss Edith Berry. Miss Ysabel
Brewer, Mrs. Percy Moore and Mrs.
Fred McNear will pose as miniatures.
Now, isn't that lot for your money
your 81 so?
q And by the way, don't forget to ex-
change your tickets for reserved seats

Enthusiastic All-Day Meet
ing at Perry's School
House.
SEVERAL ADDRESSES.
Many New Names Enrolled
in the Tobacco AS
ISOLATION.

The tobacco growers of the Perry
School House district held an en-
thusiastic meeting Saturday, which
was attended by about eighty plant
ers. Many ladies were present and
basket dinner was spread on the
ground for everybody.
President W. w. Radford, of the
County Association of Tobacco Grow
ers, was on hand and conducted the
meeting, making an earnest appeal
to the farmers to unite. Mr.. Rad
ford is one of the most progressive
farmers in the county and as pub
lie speaker he has a most entertaining
and convincing style. A fund of
anecdote and line of sound reason
ing, coupled with strong appeals to
his brother planters to organize,
made his speech a most effective one.
A large number of signatures were
obtained to the contracts.
Mr.. D. R Perry was another
speaker who made a stirring address,
Mr.. Perry's ability on the stump has
been shown in many political cam
paigns and as an orator he is a gen
uine hustler" He made fine
speech.
Col. E. D. Jones was also called
upon, but spoke only briefly, en-
couraging the movement in every
way.
Chas. M. Meacham and Col. w. r.
Howell also made talks along the
same line. Col. Howell is a rousing
stump-speaker and his address was
listened to with much pleasure and
interest.
The day as whole was a pleasant
and profitable gathering, the wealth
er being all that could have been
asked for for an outdoor meeting.

SULTRY WEATHER
And Several Storms Pre-
dicted.

The weather for June, according
to Hicks, will be about as follows:
From the 3rd to 9TH, inclusive, look
for rain and thunder storms. The
storm period extending from the 18th
to the 18th, promises to bring some
of the most general and severe dis
turbances of the month. Great
thunder storms and downpours of
rain, with great warmth, attended
by high humidity and very low
barometer. Next storm period runs
from the Goth to the 18th. High
temperature, thunder storms and
great electrical unrest will continue
probably until the 28th. If heavy
rains and storms occur between the
10th and 18th, the same may be ex-
pected to continue at the reactionary
period, 25th to 18th.

Playful Roasts of Faculty
Members in Class Paper
the Cause.
MUCH ADO ABOUT 1T,
Boys Father There to See
His Son Out of the
Trouble.

Lexington, Ky, May 29.-The
greatest sensation in college circles
in this city in recent years occurred
here Friday afternoon when by a
majority vote Of the faculty of the
Kentucky State College, Karl L.
Dietrich, son of c. H. Dietrich, of
Hopkinsville, KY, was suspended
from the institution for a year, af-
ter which the faculty will consider
his case again. Young Dietrich was
a member Of the senior class in the
Mechanical and Engineering Depart
ment, and had been voted the class
day "grumbler," and had prepared
a paper to read on that day.
When the paper was submitted to
to Prof. S. c. Mckenzie for censor
ship it was found to contain remarks
about four members Of the faculty.
The paper was then given to Presi-
dent Jas. K. Patterson, who called a
meeting Of the faculty, and young
Dietrich was expelled.
The remarks were that Prof. Nc
Kenzie had on one occasion used
coarse language in the presence of
I his young lady pupils; that Prof.
White was given to partial mark
ing; that Prof. Patterson was per-
mitted to hold two positions at one
time and that the students had a
kick coming on him on general
principles.
President Patterson wired the
boys father at Hopkinsville that his
son was ir serious trouble and to
come at once, and in response to that
message the elder Dietrich arrived
Saturday night.
His son stated to him that he had
meant no disrespect to any member
of the faculty, and that the paper
was prepared in a spirit of fun.
He at once began a vigorous at
tempt to secure a settlement of the
matter. The senior class of SO mem
bers held meeting and entered
strong protest against the suspen-
sion and refusing in body to accept
their own diplomas or take any part
in the exercises on class or com
mencement days.
Prof. Dietrich has also employed
attorneys to force the faculty by
legal proceedings to issue the 'di-
ploma his son is entitled to.
The general opinion is that the
teachers exceeded their authority
and that the Board of Trustees will
reverse their decision.
1t is understood that suspension
was made by a bare majority Of the
faculty, as several members believed
the paper should have been burned
up and a reprimand given to the of
fender.
A similar trouble came up three
years ago over the paper of Clark
another Hopkinsville boy,
but the matter was finally dropped,
as it should be in this case.

Sprints a Mile to Wed Elopers.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
Justice Theodore Mayer last night demon
strated his sprinting abilities, when he ran
nearly one and one-half miles to perform a
marriage ceremony. The principals were
julius w. Stokes of Springfield, Ill, and
Miss Christine Vonderhyde. The two were
speeding toward st. Louis fifteen minutes
after the perspiring justice had performed
the ceremony.
Stokes and his bride are believed to have
agreed upon the hasty marriage because
they feared parental objections. They ar
rived in Chicago early in the afternoon and
went to the home of Franl. Mae. Stokes
went to the Chicago avenue police station
in search of Justice Mayer.
Il want to Justice Mayer right
away" Stokes said to Sergt. Carey. The
latter. on learning the visitors errand. tel
ephoned to Justice Mayer who was about
to dine when he received the message
The justice hurried from his home and
boarded a North Clark street cable train
He had gone but two blocks when the train
was halted by long string of cars which
had been blockaded by the breaking of a
wheel of coal wagon. When the justice
learned it would be twenty minutes before
the blockade could be cleared he set out on
foot and ran all of the way to the Huron
street residence.
On reaching his destination the magistrate
ran up the stairs. where he encountered
Stokes and his intended bride. Two min
utes later tho ceremony had been perform
ed. Mrs. Stokes threw her arms about the
Justices neck and kissed him, then she
and her husband hurried to their train.
Il was determined to reach the place on
time, and that is why l ran all the way"
said Justice Mayer when he appeared at the
Chicago avenue station. II was two min
utes ahead of time

Massage in Nubia.

From the St. Louis Globe Democrat.
The masseur had just returned from Nu-
bia, the birthplace of massage.
L didn't learn as much as l expected to-"
he said, but l got hold Of two movements
in an incredible way.
"Nubia is a queer place. They have SO
little water there that they never take
baths. The 'masseh' or kneading-whence
our word massage-is the baths substitute.
You strip, lie down, and are covered from
head to foot with a cream made Of mutton
fat, musk. sandal wood powder and certain
plant juices. Then you are kneaded, you
are massaged. / studied the Nubian move
ments thoroughly. and learned, as / say,
two good things.
The Nubians are a handsome and queer
race. They hunt elephants with the sword.
hunter steals upon a DOING elephant
and sashes him in the back Of the leg, ten
inches above the hoof. This cut sewers
the artery and the elephant bieeds to death.
They cook meat on hot stones. First
they build a fire, then they put big stones
on ii, and, when the stones are hot enough,
they clean them Of ashes and embers care
fully and throw on the meat. This Is
better way of cooking than the brotl, for
il preserves all the meat juices. But green
