Chamberlain Framed Issue.

"Of course, in order 70 have an issue
there must be a sVit, a proc sding at
equity or at law. There was such a sit
Uation in respect TO the party in this
case, and out OF that suit Judge Cham
berlain framed an issue wnich he sub
mitted TO the masters. and in which he
in detail provided what appearances
should be made, what parties should ap-
pear here and evidently cOntem plated
that the next friends were to go fur
tner and maintain their claim with re-
spect 70 the issue presented.
They have withdrawn from this
hearing and with notice that they in
tend to exercise their right to dismiss
the bill in the superior court we think
there is nothing left to be answered
by Mrs. Eddy or decided by US
Therefore We should not feel war
ranted in going forward eX-parte with
a view 10 establishing the mental status
of Mrs. Eddy on the 1st of March. we
think we should report to the court
what has been dOne-that is, report
the evidence under the commission.
The commission, I think. requires
that we should report the evidence. We
may be wrong in our disposition of
your motion. Mr. Streeter. Although this
is a friendly suit, II in sense, OF course,
Involves the interests OF different parties,
and when the parties who assert a lack
of mentality withdraw, there Is no con-
nothing TO answer, as We view It.
If we should stop and report what
has been done to Judge Chamberlain
there could be no harm done, such as
results from delay
Il think before these three volumes
which have come from the stenographer
are formally made a part OF the report
the record should be corrected either by
myself or some one In connection with
Mr.. Parker and DR.. Jelly or by counsel
There are necessarily some verbal err
rors, OF course We do not say this
as any criticism on anybody
Is there anything further to be said p

"Altruistic Motives"
Mr.. ChaEtiIer said in notifying the
court Of the withdrawal of the case:
There als many reasons for this ac-
ton and the principal one results from
the consideration OF the Improbable
ness Of any immediate results upon the
issues as now framed. compared with
the burdens and Disadvantages TO be
Incurred by US both before and after the
decision. The suit has been almost Who'll

Judge Aldrich read the decision Of the
masters as follows:
I'VE have only this observation to

I'VE have acted from the beginning
upon the idea that the issue submitted
TO us was purely a property issue. we

Of the controversy before US, excluding
as far as possible all considerations IN
respect TO religious doctrines or reli-

THE NOVEMBER WoMAN's
HOME COMPANION

The opening chapters of a new
novel, Though Life Us Do Part"
by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, is the
feature of the Womans Home Com
panion for November. The announce
ment of a new story by the author of
"a Singular Life" is always agreeable
and this new novel gives promise
of being one of Mrs. Wards best.
Under the title "Do You Know
Your Grocer?" the editor makes some
very telling comments on grocery
conditions throughout the country,
that every housewife will read with
interest.

alphabetical order, in a specially ar
ranged series of ballots. The whole
number of ballots to be printed for
the school election is to be divided
by the number of candidates running
for places on the board. The quotient
so obtained will be the number OF
ballots, under the law, in each series
of ballots to be printed as follows:
"The names of candidates shall be
arranged in alphabetical order and
the first series of ballots printed.
Then the first name is placed last
and the next series printed and the
process repeated until the name of
each candidate appears first" The
school election returns are to be kept
on separate poll books and tally
sheets.
The possible extention of non
partisan voting to include municipal
elections depend somewhat on the
manner in which the new method of
voting for school board candidates is
received at this election. Bills are
now pending before the legislature to
remove the party emblem from all
ballots in municipal elections.

ATTRACTIONS AT THE vALEN-

Week of October Twenty-eieht.

Charles Frohman will present at
the Valentine Theatre, Toledo, Ohio,
Wednesday, October 30th, Hattie Will
liams in the daintiest of musical COM
edy successes "The Little Cherub."
No more charming entertainment has
been offered in many years than this
tuneful, mirthful and artistic work of
Owen Hall and Ivan Caryll. "The
Little Cherub" was first produced at
the Criterion Theatre, New York City,
early in August, 1906, and ran there
for nearly seven months before con-
cluding the long season with eight
weeks in Boston and three weeks in
Philadelphia. "The Little Cherub'
the original production of which will
be given here, served as the vehicle
for the first stellar appearance Of
Miss Williams, who is so well known
for her clever work in "The Girl
From Kay's." "The Rollicking Girl"
and other musical comedies. There
are seventy members of "The Little
Cherub" company.
On Thursday, October 31st, one of
the most notable offerings of the
stage, Eleanor Robson, in "Salony
Jane" will be the attraction at this
theatre. This is the piece in which
Miss Robson has captivated New
York and Eastern audiences and in
which she has scored her greatest
success since she took the country
like wildfre in Merely Mary Ann"

strong, and its very atmosphere gives
Miss Robson full opportunity to re-
veal her personality which is. one
thoroughly dainty and ingenious in
manner and yet disclosing depth and
possibilities of great emotion. The
stage settings are exceedingly rich
and picture the Western country with
much vividness.
"Wildfire" is the title of the
straight comedy in which Lillian Rus
sell will appear at the Valentine
Theatre on November l and 2. Miss
Russell has recently declared she
will never return to a singing role
but will confne her efforts in the
future to straight comedy. This
determination was caused by the ia
vor showered upon her in "Wildfre,"
comedy in which she sparlSles at
every turn by reason of her complete
understanding of comedy effect and
accord with sense of humor, which
her personality furnishes. She re-
vealed when in comic opera a master
ful sympathy with the refined humor
and in this new comedy this funda-
mental understanding of fun making
asserts itself at every turn.
