THINGS TO FORGET.

If you see a tall fellow ahead of a
crowd
A leader OF men marching fearless
and proud, ...-..
And you know of a tale whose mere
telling aloud
Would cause his proud head to in
anguish be bowed,
It's pretty good plan to forget it.
If you know of skeleton hidden
away
In a closet. and guarded, and kept
from the day
whose sudden display
Would cause grief and sorrow and
lifelong display,
It's pretty good plan to forget it.
If YOU know OF thing ;ha will dark
en- the JOY
Or 4 man or a woman. OF a girl or {
boy.
That will wipe out a smile, or the
least way annoy
A fellow. or cause any gladness L
cloy.
It's pretty coed plan to forget it.

S%UFFRAGlSTS ASK
TITLES FOR WOmEN

London. Nov. 21.-Suffragists now have a
new grievance. Since votes for women are
not forthcoming, why not at least titles
for women? The list Of kings birthday
honor, including a celebrated singer and a
celebrated actor, has aroused discussion
over the question why men musicians,
writer's and actors should be knighted ana
never women, who are equally proficient
in the same line. If a Sir John Hare.
why not Lady Ellen Terry, since her sue
cess has been equally great:
These untiring s-uffragettes are carrying
their campaign into he police courts.
When an old woman was being tried for
drunkenness. eager ~su,fragettes in the
bach of the court room arose n protested
against her trial. as she had never had
a vote and. therefore, was not a citizen.
The old woman was puzzled, but de-
lighted, by the u%nlookcd-for Interference,
while the court, scandalized at the pro-
cedure. ordered the instant election Of the
offending suffragettes, who were carried
out, still shouting, votes for women!''

FOLK IN

Minneapolis, Nov. 21.-Professor Frances

tells her classes at the University Of Min
nesota that the members of the Christine
Hill Stock company, chorus girls and all
will attend the university to study drama
with the. regular students. She says this
is to be done in order to give the actors
a deeper knowledge OF stage literature
and q greater power in their work at the
local playhouse.
Most actors, according to Professor Pot
ter, have not secured n thorough training
in the groundwork OF the art, and this
can be given them by the better apprecia-
tion of the drama which comes With its
more systematic study. She and others
interested in the drama are trying To work
up a live interest m the production OF the
better class of drama, and want the home
ompany to edacatc the pi.oiic taste along
this line.
Professor Potter says this Will. in great
measure, be achieved by having the !aenl-

MASKED MEN Drag
HIM BACK TO WIFE

Huntington. l.. L.. Nov. 2l~.-lndignalt
residents OF Fair Ground. II suburb of
Huntington, seized John T. Hurd. u
resident of Huntington, peat him with
birch switches. and, after dragging him
TWO miles. left him on the front porch
of his wife's home. Every man in the
party was masked.
Hurd, who is about so. is in the hands
of u physician. For many years he WAS
an architect of prominence in New
York. He married II sister of the late
Henry G. Platt, for many years United
States district attorney fer the south
ern district of New York, and about "a
year ago inherited a small fortune.
When Hurd appeared in Fair Ground
dren he was practically a stranger
among the townspeople. Soon the re-
port spread that ne had deserted his
Wife in Huntington and that the wom-
an who was seen daily in the village
streets With him was the wife of an
other man.
One Investigator brought the informa-
ton that Hurd had recently inherited
$50, 1000, and his mode of living led the
visitors TO believe he was trying to
spend it all i'll a few months. Few per
sons In the village spoke to Hurd, and
toward the end of the summer 1t was
planned to carry him out Of town on a
rail. This plan was abandoned when 1t
was suggested that his wife would suf-
fer disgrace through such a proceed
ing.
Recently, neighbors declare. the house
which Hurd occupied became the scene
of dinner parties and other festivities,
at which persons from outside the VIII
lage We're guests. and the residents OF
Fair Ground We're shocked. Then a
meeting of the leading citizens was
