Miss Nellie Amber Crossen, the noted
lecturer, reader, recter and entertainer
will present when knighthood Was
in Flower" in the Improvement club
hall next Wednesday evening, March 20

Rev. S. S. RAIN, pastor of st. Johns
Lutheran church, Jacksonville, says:
Miss Nellie Amber Crossen gave q
lecture recital in the lecture room of
our church on February 20, 1907. As a
reader she is gifted to a high degree;
as an artist she has rare ability. She
captivates by her attractive manner
and graceful personality. BY her in
imitable charm of expression and de-
livery she at once won the admiration
of the large and appreciative audience.
She possesses the happy faculty Of
knowing how to please and delight her
hearers. She gave miscellaneous read
ings of character sketches of a humor-
Gus and ludicrous nature. These were
received with hearty applause. She
brought good cheer and brightness to
the minds and hearts of all present and
carries with her their highest praise
and well wishes. Her work here was
in every way a great success.

PROF. OVERSTREET'S
ADDRESSTO PATRONS

We, the teachers of the Fort Pierce
school, are striving to discharge our
duty toward the youth of this town and
community, The discipline of the school
generally speaking, is rigid, yet
humane, We, at all times respect the
rights and liberties of our pupils. but
at the same time we demand respect
and obedience from them. We take
pleasure in granting the smallest wish
of parent or pupil, provided, of course,
this is not inconsistent with the proper
management of the school. In addition
to the texts. we endeavor to teach the
real art If ri i living. We have doubt
less made mis- axes in our ADMINISTRATION;
YOU have been generous in your criti-
cisms of these. We have always needed
your sympathy and support; you have
so far given this without stint.
We feel, though for teacher to fail
to correct erroneous conceptions or to
punish fragrant violations in a pupil is,
to do to that pupil, distinct and i'm
parable injustice and amounts in a
teacher to criminal negligence, should
you fail in these, we feel that you are
equally culpable.
We need your further cooperation;
you can hardly afford to withdraw it.
Aside from the parent, the teacher
stands the most ready and constant
friend of any pupil. Let US ask you
then to encourage your children in every
righteous act, and to discourage them
in everything that pertains to wrong,
especially as far as it effects the inter-
est of the school or its progress Do
not use your influence to prejudice
them in the confidence they repose in
even these imperfect stays, leaving
nothing in its stead save that liberty
which is lisense, and an unrestrained
nature which is anarchy.

here, and Sailor Burke, prominent light heavy who was recently defeat ed by Johnson, is all packed up for a trip to the coast. Burke gained fame by contriving to knock out Joe Grim.
 T. E. Jones, manager of Billy Papke of Spring Valley, H., writes that he is anxious to introduce his charge to a San Francisco fight gathering Papke is recognized as one of the best of the new batch of middleweights, and he proudly claims to be the champion of the Middle West in his class.
 Packy Mcfarland, the Chicago lightweight, whom Battling Nelson pronounced the coming champion of the world, is looking longingly toward San Francisco and is likely to come here on his own hook, if not invited in the near future.
 Another lightweight who is serious lyr considering trip to the coast is Tommy Murphy, the boy who has filled Terry McGovern's place in the affec- tions of the sports of New York San Franciscoans who have seen Murphy in action say he is sure to make a hit with the fight followers here abouts
 Kid" Scaler, who signs himself "Featherweight Champion of the Northwest" and whose stationery bears picturesvpf himself and Manager Jack Kearns, writes that he would be pleased to show the San Francisco fight fans what he can do.
 A story has gone the rounds of the Eastern sporting press to the effect that Battling Nelson and Billy Nolan have parted company. It is said that Nelson, who is in the Northwest at present, gave out the news. The report lacks confirmation. Nolan Is away on a camping trip but it is be- lieved that when he returns he will busy himself trying to secure a date for the Dane, either in San Francisco or at some point in Nevada.

WIRELESS MESSAGE IS
 HEARD 11,000 MILES
Marcon Experts at Sydney, Nova Scotia, Pick Up Message From
 Manila.

SYDNEY. N. S., Oct. S.-Yesterday while the Marconi experts were test ing several new receiving cones at the top of the towers at Merien station the operator at the room below picked up the wireless station at Manila. The message received was that the United States cruiser Philadelphia had arriv- ed at that port and that all was well. The Marconi people account for the remarkable happening on the pre- sumption that the receiving cone at Merien must have been in perfect tune with that at Manila.
 The distance from Merien to Manila is, roundly speaking 11,000 miles. The best previous record for distance by wireless was 1000 miles, between sa- vannah, Ga, and an American vessel on her way down the South Pacific Ocean.
 The Marconu experts at Merien were experimenting in an effort to in- tercept messages sent by rival com panies.

It is observed with great satisfac- tion and extreme pleasure that at last the efforts of the Alaska papers and the representative pioneers of the great Northwest, have been recognized by the outside papers as having sta bility of purpose, and honesty of thought and action in their earnest endeavors to procure the right of home rule.
 Seattle press has begun to give space to the men who have the brains and the courage to demand territorial gov ernment, .t is certainly most gratify- ing to feel that Alaskans are at last taken seriously and believed. Seattle, the gateway to the present Eldorado of the world, has experienced an awak- ening, and it's people, who have reaped the boneats of the pioneers struggles, are now willing to give him a chance to secure something which is his by all the rights of common justice.
 The statements of the Juneau little stick" Alaska's and the Guggenheim's miniature Teddy, that only the saloon element was in favor of the inaliena- ble right to make their own laws has been a recurring boomerang which will annoy him as long as he is in the public eye as a governor. His antag- onism and direct hindrance of the dele gates of Alaska in Congress, coupled with the later assurances that he is in with the corporations and trusts, has put bad light on his standing with the brave spirited Alaska people.
 The bombastic manner in which his own paper publishes his boasted in- strumentality In aiding to remove Judge Wickersham is a thing which nauseates the press at large to think that man should occupy the position which he does and take advantage of REAL Alaskans by subsidizing any thing.
 How in the name of common sense a man with all Alaska opposing him can yet assert that HE knows best, unless there is something in 1t for him which will work to his own direct ad- vantage, is more than the type of men found on Seward Peninsula can under stand or appreciate.
