THE PRoDIeAL SON.
An oratorlo Presented by Walden
University in the Meharry Au-
dltorium.


An a~ppreciative audience that was
and could be called a large audience,
considering the extremely inclement
weather, filled the spacious auditori-
UNI at Meharry Medical College last
Friday night, March list, to witness
"The Prodigal Son." which was pre-
sented to the music lovers in the form
of an oratorio. This beautiful and
~welLrendered entertainment was un-
der the management of Miss Mamie
u. Braden, musical director of Wal
den University, and daughter of the
late and beloved DR.. Braden, the eX-
president of Walden. Miss Braden is
an ardent worker, tireless and I'M
swerving in her devotion and efforts
in everything that will interest Wal
Gen University.
The program for the evening was
one highly entertaining. 1t took on
the professional air. The performance
was to begin at 8 p. m, but a gale was
blowing at the hour that marked the
advent of March, and in this high
gale the rain was coming down in tor
rents, yet many braved the storm and
at $3.50 the Walden Orchestra began
with a beautiful selection. Then the
chorus, consisting of about fifty voices,
arranged twenty-five to each side OF
the stage, in costumes that were
catchy and becoming, furnished a fine
selection. The orchestra again played
and the chorus began the first strains
of the oratorio, "The Prodigal Son."
There is joy in the presence of the
angels of God over one sinner that
repenteth." The well-trained voices
and the way in which the grand COM
position was rendered, appealed to the
very hearts of the hearers. Those
present leaned far over in their seats
to catch the pronunciation of every
word. at the conclusion the chorus
was loudly %applauded.
The soloists were Miss Maud ].
Roberts, soprano, who is recognized
as n of the leading soprano singers
in the city, and indeed on Friday
night she sustained this reputation
and with a clear, sweet, musical voice
that was wel~lcontrolled, she rendered
her parts, exciting o continuous alp
nlause on each appearances. Mrs
Laura P. Allen, the contralto, can be
said to be next to Mrs. John Work
She showed wonderful ability as a con

for a matinee in New Haven this after
noon and planned to take the 9O3 train
south this morning which would make
slight margin before the matinee began.
The train was one hour and Is minutes
late. which made IL impossible for them
to make connections. Mr., Hopper showed
that he was as good a leader in the out

The Worlds weaIthiest Country

The United States is not only the
wealthiest country on the globe but its
lead over the other countries is increasing
every day. As estimated by the census
bureau, in a report Just sent out the
wealth of the United States was in 1904.
in round figures. $1O7. 900. 900. 600 This
was an increase of SIS 500, 900 900 over
1900. During the four years ending with
1904 the country's wealth expanded by
a larger figure than it's entire wealth
amounted to ($l6. 900 900, 00O) in the year
in which Lincoln was first elected. 1860.
In that year, moreover. the 1000 900
slaves were counted as merchandise. and
entered into this SIC. 500 900, 900 property
valuation. The best British estimates
place the wealth of the United Kingdom
at about $50 900. 600 900. It ranks next
to the United States in this respect, but
is far below this country. Germany and
France are each few millions below the
United Kingdom.
on the basis Of increase June Goth, 1900,
to June 3Oth. 1901. the wealth of the
United States is about Sl19 900. 900. 900 in
these early weeks of 1907. The wealth
Of the United States is much greater
than the combined wealth OF the coun-
tries which hold the second and the third
place on the roll And the gap between
us and them is steadily and rapidly broad
ening. The increase is very much faster
than in population In the 107 years since
1900. while the population of the United
States has increased sixteen times. the
wealth of the United States has been null
tiplied 119 times. This is one Of the
marvels of American expanson.-[L

How Lincoln Won His Case.

The lawyer whose honesty is proved
has the confidence of the judge and jury.
A story of Abraham Lincoln is an illus
tration: he was appointed TO defend one
charged with murder The crime was a
brutal one; the evidence entirely circum-
stantial; the accused a stranger. Feeling
was high and against the friendlcss de-
PENDANT. On the trial Lincoln drew from
the witnesses full statements of what
they saw and knew. There was no effort
to confuse, no attempt to place before the
jury the facts other than they were In
the argument, after calling attention to
the fact that there was no direct tes-
timony, Lincoln reviewed the circumstan-
ces. and after conceding that this and
that seemed to point to defendants guilt,
closed by saying that he had reflected
much on the case, and while IL seemed
probable that defendant was guilty, he
was not sure; and looking the jury
straight in the face said, Are your"
The defendant was acquitted, and after
wards the real criminal was detected and
punished. How different would have been
the conduct of many lawyers Some
would have striven to lead the judge into
technical errors with a view to an appeal
to a higher court. Others would have
become hoarse in denunciation of wit
nesses, decrying the lack of positive tes-
timony and the marvellous virtue of a
reasonable doubt. The simple, straight
forward way of Lincoln backed by the
confidence of the jury, womb. ],

WEALTH IN COPPER.

Mines of World Are Producing a Million
Dollars a Day.
As recently as 1883 the value Of copper
produced by the mines of the United
States was only 1913, S39, 1854, and for 1904
only two years ago. was bur $l05 629, S45
the year 1904 being the second in the
history OF the country In which the
value of the copper output exceeded $780,
900, 900, yet, at the present moment the
copper mines Of the United States are
producing copper to the value of 5000 000,-
600 yearly, and the Lake Superior copper
mines alone are making copper worth
100000 for every day of the year. or at
the rate of more than 81 900 900 weekly.
So great has been the growth OF the
industry, and so rapid the increase in
price of the metal, that the production
of three counties Of the single state of
Michigan is as great in value as the
entire copper production of the United
States as recently as 1S97-only nine
years ago-and double the value of the
entire copper output of the United States
in year as comparatively recent as
1889
Figuring copper at an average price
throughout the globe of 20h cents per
pound. which is a trihe below the aver

are making copper at the rate of exactly
a million dollars day, for every day in

Compared with copper, the value of the
gold and silver production of the United
States is as a minor fraction, great as
is the output of the precious metals, and
rapid as has been the increase in pro-
duction of the money metals by the
mines of America. Another fact of deep
interest is found in the surprisingly large
percentage of the gold and silver out
put of the country that comes as a by
product, from the copper mines. The vast
and rapidly increasing value of the copper
product of the United States, which
makes more than half of the copper pro
duced I'm the world, is a most significant
develOpment.-TStev Copper Hand

Government statistics show that new
buildings erected in the United States in

dentally it is remarked that the fire
loss for the year aggregates about $780,
O00, 900, not all of which was on build

is the comparatively small proportion Of
new construction that is really fireproof.
