LOCAL AUTHORS
NIGHT 4 SUCCESS

| Authors Night at the Kilohana
! Art League rooms last night proved
| to be quite as successful as the promo
tiers could well desire, the large art
room being crowded with a large num-
Der of members and guests, including
many of the leading educationalists Of
the city. The program of original
poems and stories was a most enter
tanning one, highly interesting from
the fact that some of the articles were
read by the authors themselves, while
the others were splendidly read by
Mrs. L. L. McCandless, whose training
and natural talent allowed her to bring
out in her reading all the fine points
Of the various selections.
A particularly interesting item of
the program was one not looked for,
being the presentation of a page of
the manuscript of the late General Lew
Wallace, given to the League by Miss
Krout, to whom it had been sent by
the recently deceased Mrs. Wallace.
The acceptance of the gift was suitably
acknowledged by the president of the
League. D. Howard Hitchcock.

by local authors, were read:

Gripping lhe reClZeT .yuse with

ragged London waif into the
possessor Of incalculable wealth,
this story by Louis Tracy meas

The stirring adventures in which
Philip Arson became en1broiled
by reason of his suddenly ac-
CURED riches, literally sent to

tain of its aspects. The weather was
cold and showery, a typical day of the
March equinox. Under such conditions

ness or hobby it is to record such facts
observed a rapid shrinkage of the mer-
curry column between the hours Of 6
and Z. a deluge of rain fell for many
minutes and was followed about 7:30
p. m. by mad turmoil of thunder and
an astounding electrical display not
often witnessed beyond the confines Of
the giant mountain ranges of the world.
4 SO violent and unnerving was the
outburst that the social life of Lon
don was paralyzed for the hour. The
ater parties, diners in the fashionable
restaurants. the greater millions anx-
ious to get away from offices and shops,
those eager alike to enter and leave
the charmed circle of the four mile ra-
dius, were ruthlessly hidden to wait
while the awesome forces of nature
made mad racket in the streets. All
horsefesh was afraid. The drivers of
cabs and omnibuses were unable to
make progress. They had sufficient
ado to restrain their maddened ami
mails from adding the havoc of blind
charges through the streets to the gen.
eral confusion caused by the warning
elements. Telegraph and telephone
wires became not only useless, but
dangerous. and the suburban train
service was consequently plunged into
a tangle from which it was not eXtri
Gated until midnight.
So general was the confusion, sc
widespread the public alarm, that the
sudden cessation OF the uproar a

fulness to be uttered in the metropoli.

right to some $75ooo,ooo, marries

RATHER PREMATURE.

w. ]. Connor, chairman of the Dem
ocratic State Committee of New York,
has called a conference of Democrats,
senators, congressman and prominent
men in the party, to consider the ques-
ton of a Democratic candidate for
president. The conference is fixed to
be held in New York in the middle of
November next This action is prema-
tire, but at any rate can have no con-
troll of the Democrats when they meet
in convention to name party leader. If
guided by the experience of the past, the
Democrats will not be nisled as in the
past. The duty of the Democrats is
plain. If they would win the confidence
of the people and elect their candidate
for the presidency, they must stand on
well defined principles and on issues
which will appeal to the masses. The
rsople will not support Cleveland nor
any mugwump which New York would
recommend and endorse.
