The Blade complimented Mrs. Gardi-
ner In the following:
Before a large and appreciative
audience in Central Congregational
church last evening, Mrs. E. d. Gardi-
ner gave her exquisite reading of
Enoch Arden, accompanied by Prof.
Arthur Kortheuer, who interpreted
Richard Strauss wonderful musical
setting for this great soul poem. From
the first Mrs. Gardiner had the SYM
pathy of the cultured audience in the
telling of the story of these simple,
honest people of little English coast
town that Tennyson has made famous.
All the beauty of the summer and
autumn of the English downs. the
music of the sea, the happy laughter
of the children at play, and later the
stronger emotions of love and the an
guish of strong souls were all expressed
with delicacy and force, to which the
music added note of gladness or sor-
row. as the story ran.

1t looks from a White House view
point as though there were going to
be war in Ohio after all. Boss Cox of
Cincinnati, said he was ready to come
out of retirement and be party to
any old sort of harmony. Secretary
Taft said all he wanted was harmony
and even Senator Foraker said he
would like little harmony too. But
1T developed on further inspection
that what they all wanted was differ
ent brands of harmony. Senator For
aker said that on consideration, he
found the sort Of harmony he was ex-
pected to be party to would involve
an easy chair and cooling drink in
some retired spot where the turmoil
of public life would not disturb him.
This was not what he wanted. Rest
was not what he was after, he only
wanted recreation. Boss Cox said he
spoke only for himself, just the way
he has usually worked when
there was anything doing. And Sec
retary Taft who has not been saying
much, found that the harmony pro
gram was off and has continued tc
maintain a discrete silence. 1t will
be war to the knife till the elections
in Ohio a year hence. 1t will mean
from present appearances the politi
cal death of Senator Foraker or the
extinction of Mr.. Taft's presidential
prospects. If it results in diyorcinl
the Taft forces from the alliance will
Mr. Cox, there will not be much cause
for regret The record made by the
boss of Cincinnati while effective il
practical politics, is not enviable from
an ethical standpoint. 1t is to b,
hoped that truce may be arranged
within the state party, but the sor
OF a peace that was promised was
little worse than war.

His Old [ Letters

A Wall street business man showed
visitor bundle of old letters that
he was taking home from his Office to
burn in his furnace. 81 wasn't always
so particular about these useless busi-
ness letters" he said. 'until learned
that the women cleaners were sorting
them out of the wastebaskets and sell
ing them to certain firms which make
business of furnishing lists of names
for various purposes, mostly to specu-
lative concerns. Then l concluded
that I owed it to my clients to protect
them from the nuisance that follows

Modern society doubtless makes
mistake in not finding something for
idle women to do. The idle woman is
the menace of later-day civilization.
It is tolerably certain that there are
more busy women and more idle wo-
men in this country than were ever
before assembled under one flag. The
idle would like to find something to
do. They turn in their ennui to
bridge whist, to amateur philanthropy,
no church sociable charity, to visiting
and gossip. The old story that
Satan will find some mischief still
for idle hands to do" is daily exem-
plified here. The Catholic church in
bts wisdom uniforms hundreds of its
adult female children and sets them
10 work nursing the sick, teaching the
young, and at other more or less use
iful employments. but there are mil
lions within and without the church
who are living under the distracting
burden of idleness. 1t is malady OF
modern high pressure civilization.

. A Dramatic Child.

When my son was two or three years
old he was seated in his high chair at
the table eating corn batter cakes and
molasses, of which he was fond. Aft
er eating as many cakes as were good
for him he was told he could have no
more. Heaving a great sigh, he took
the plate in both hands and licked all
the molasses off. Then, looking stead
lily at the plate as he held it up before
him, he said seriously, Il amt got no
more use for you," and threw it back
over his head to the floor. where II
broke to pieces.-Chicago Tribune.

Russian Jurymen.

The most Incredible stories have been
told of Russian jurymen. Thus the
foreman of jury declared he would
not send poor fellow to prison be-
cause it happened to be his (the jury
mans birthday. Another jury had
agreed upon verdict of guilty when
the church bells began to ring. They
revised their verdict because n holl-
day had begun. A burglar was allowed
to go free because the man whom he
had robbed had refused to lend him
money. This in the opinion of the jury
was direct incentive to crime.
