The Other Great Man.


DR.. Russell Cool of California hap
pened to suppress an epidemic of
measles while on a vacation trip to
Tahiti, and Chief Oreaori gratefully
invited him to a banquet in his print
tive palace. The south sea potentate
and bis white guest sat amiably on
the floor and dined of roast pig and
other native delicacies served on broad
leaves and eaten with the fingers.
After dinner host and guest adjourned
to seats outside the palace, lit long. fat
black cigars and gazed out over the
moonlit Pacific. In the eyes Of Chief
Oreaori, Robert Louis Stevenson. who
did so much 10 improve the condition
Of the south sea islanders. was the
greatest white man that ever lived
The chief related to DR.. Cool many
incidents to illustrate Stevenson's
kindness, then asked score of ques-
tons about the health Of Steverson's
widow and of his stepchildren. When
tie last question had been answered
there followed long period Of silence.
The two friends puffed slowly at their
cigars and luxuriously regarded the
radiant tropic moonlight glowing upon
rustling palm fronds and the silvery
ocean. Then Oreaori turned to the
doctor and demanded. Now tell me
about John L. Sullivanv'-Harper's
Weekly.

1t is a curious fact that, although
jewellers in northern climes must have
known for ages that low temperature
preserves flesh from putrefaction, it
never seems to have struck any one
that this natural fact could be turned
to artificial advantage until Lord Bacon
stuffed the historic chicken with snow
and thereby caught chill which killed
him. 1t is perhaps even more curious
that an experiment resulting in the
death Of one Of the most eminent men
in the world should not have called any
attention to an already we'll known
principle which might have been read
lily turned to great advantage. AS
matter Of fact, it was not until the year
1875, 249 years after Lord Bacon's fatal
experiment, that freezing was prac-
ticaly employed as a method Of pre-
serving flesh. This was the commence
nent Of the frozen meat trade between
America and England. Four years
later a dry air refrigerator was per-
fected

Thought He Had Died.

A prominent member Of German
American society told story about a
German friend of his who was taken
i'll. For many days the German was
close to death, but after time he
showed improvement in condition. The
doctor told the Germans wife that her
husband might have anything to eat
that he liked.
The German expressed desire for
limburger cheese, and the wife, being
a generous woman and pleased at the
improvement and in order that her
husband might have nibble at any
time he had taste for it, put some
cheese in every room in the house. 1t
Is easy to imagine the aroma.
The next morning the doctor called
at the house, and as soon as he opened
the door he asked:
when did he e?"-Hartford Post.

Then he tells It to the first friend he

he tries II on the biase hotel clerk and

1.-THE policy of Bethlehem is to helI
persons to help themselves" said F. II.
White, superintendent of the Industrial
department of the Bethlehem tnstitu-
ton, $40 Vignes street. I'VE turn no.
body down who comes to us. We pick
up a man who has no money or friends
and find work for him. There is no
charge except for the accommodations
and we give trust for that in many
cases.
1--WE have beds, with from two to five
in room, at 10 cents, and single rooms
from 81 to $3.50 week. In addition 70
the fifty-flve rooms in the main build
ing we have four cottages il the same
grounds, giving us seventy-five rooms
altogether. There are sixty-hve men
in the hotel at present, but we expect
to have double that number to take
care Of with the beginning of colo
weather in the east, when the usual IN
flux of out-of-works begins.
There are thousands of homeless
men in America who drift around from
place to place. They are unmarried
because the uncertainty Of their posi-
lions, due to the constant fluctuation
of the labor market, prevents them
from undertaking the responsibility of
caring for a wife and family, since they
cannot even be sure of a living for
themselves. Having no binding ties
they begin to wander.

comes the home of most of them. It's
poor substitute for the real article.
They must have companionship. and
even though they are not drinking men
they go to the saloon, where they find
bright interior and good fellowship.
This is the way the majority of men
who drink begin, not because they like
the taste of liquor, for they don't, but
because they have to buy the drinks in
order to pay for the social life the
saloon offers.
"It is a recognition of the social needs
Of mans nature upon which we base
much of our work at Bethlehem. We
aim to give the wanderer some home
atmosphere with reading room, game
rooms and occasional literary and must
cal entertainments"
A friend of Bethlehem, whose name is
withheld by request. has offered two
prizes of S. and $40 for articles not ex
ceeding $50 words on the subject, why
Ought Bethlehem Receive Help from
Our Citizens?" The papers submitted
must be sent to Rev. Dana Bartlett not
later than Thursday evening, Novem-
Der ~, and the winners names will be
announced on the following Sunday. The
committee to judge of the merits of
each article will be composed of prom

boys decline to state, but one has so
far unbosomed himself as to hint there
will be no scrip accepted at the box
office, which may or may not mean
anything. But it is nearly well settled
fun will reign from curtain to curtain,
and the show will live up to its motto.
Heavy sales of advance tickets have
been reported, and the Mason box Of
flee will be opened Monday for the ex-
change of these for rc-erved seats.
Tuesday and afterwards the public
may buy seats at the same place-the
Mason box office.
Meanwhile the bank clerks will con-
tinue to sell advance tickets, and seats
may be obtained from them until the
nights of the show. AS the last min
strels was given in the Auditorium, a
much larger house. and hundreds were
turned away, early reservations are
urged by the clerks for 81 who really
wish good seats.

BANK CLERKS TO
MAKE ALL LAUGH
KEYNOTE OF MINSTREL PRO
DUCTION Is FUN
OBJECT is TO RAISE MONEY FOR
ORGANIZATION
Director of the Show Declares It Will
Rank Equally with Anything
Now Seen on Profess
sionaI Stage

Fun will be the keynote of the show
of the Bank Clerks minStrels which
will be given at the Mason next Thurs
day and Friday nights, and the boys
declare the biggest joke of their en-
fertainment will be an attempt by any
one to take them seriously. OF course,
they brag of the excellence of their
production, and after last years effort
this confidence would seem to be well
justified.
But, after all, it is a big frolic for
them, and they want it understood not
one of them has professional aspira-
tions or desires to break in upon the
Orpheum stage.
They frankly state they need funds
for their organization which has the
backing of the banks and the Amer
dean Bankers association, and they
will give this minstrel show to raise
needful money. At the same time they
promise all who attend, with the will
to enjoy, will be given a royal treat in
the way of amusement and will see
some stunts far above those usually
presented by travelling minstrels.
George Towle, who is the music di-
rector and the only professional identi-
fed with the production, is authority
for the statement the boys themselves
are all too modest. TOwle declares the
entertainment will rank with anything
pIOlC6olOldl Ol TIE AOdu IlE has
built it up himself, and he knows
whereof he speaks While IN large
measure the program is a secret, it is
known it contains some acts which
will be little short of sensational.
Bizarre CARRIED End Men
or course there is the regulation
first part; it would not be MINISTRIES
without; there will be 200 boys in
the black-face semicircle, and therfe
will be a galaxy of bizarre--garbed end
men to enliven the proceedings with
tambos and bones. Songs, dances and
concerted numbers will alternate with
Jokes, and bank presidents, who were
the butts of all the wits one wear ago,
are wondering in terror what will hap
pen to them on this occasion, when
trying to maintain a stern front, they
smile at the hits made on their con-
freres.
The list of specialties in the olio is
q long one, but all participants are
amateurs and all the stunts are new.
These, too, are under cover, but 1t is
known a broad burlesque on the cele-
brated bathing girls, exploited so free
ly at the Grand all summer, will be one
big feature. Then there is another in
which the former 80 Long, Mary, .
have part; this, it is declared, sat
irizes a we'll known and much
Wanted feminine fad Of the day in
dress, and the costumes for it will be
of SURPRISING elegance.
These hints give a character to the
advance announcements of the boys,
and go to prove their assertions it will
again be a case of "still no lemons"
And the afterpiece, it is agreed. will
be a startler. in that It makes fun Of
