EUGENE w. CHAPLIN

The prohibitionist's candidate for
president has one thing which all
the other presidential candidates
may well envy him-the love of
scores of men whom he has res
cued from drunkards' graves. W.
you see the suit have one?
Well, 1t was made for me by the
man whom I literally picked from
the gutter where he had been left
bya.hose who believed it the only
fit place for him"
Thus Eugene w. Chain. And he
will go on to tell how the man is
now the proprietor of tailoring
business yielding an income OF
$4,000 a year. And he could, II
disposed. tell of many similar
cases.
Seven years ago Chain left a
comfortable law practice in Wis
.consin to go to Chicago and take
charge of the Washingtonian home
at salary of $500. Since then
ahe has come into personal con-
tact with 5000 drunkards of the
extreme type. In large proper
ton of cases he has been able to
hip these men to take a new hold
on life.
A big, strong. good natured man
is this prohibition candidate. He
weighs 1S5 pounds. can turn a
handspring at So as well as he did
at 16, and boasts that he has never
felt a pain or experienced sick
day In his life. This Is the herit-
age of boyhood on a farm near
Milwaukee.
Last year Chain made sos
speeches. He spoke in eight differ
ent state, and did not miss meet
ing or arrive late for one. He did
not miss train nor experience a
hitch in his arrangement III all
that year.
Campaigning is no new stunt to
Chain. For 30 years he has been
on the lecture platform. and in his
home state of Illinois he is well
nor and for judge of the circuit
court. His lecture on Lincoln the
Man of Sorrows" is circulated as a
campaign document by the pro-
hibition party. For the past IL
year he has devoted his time to
the prohibition cause
Chain is a Methodist His father
died when he was II, leaving 10
children. he being the oldest boy
at home. Thus 1t fell to his lot to
run the farm for his mother and
the eight younger ones, and this he
did until he came of age. While
working on the farm he carried
on his school work. and saved to
go to college. and finally was sue
cessful in working his way through
the state university. He was a
.classmate there of Robert NJ. La
Toilette. of whom he is a strong
admirer
Chain writes with confidence
about the outcome of the election
In November.

TUNHE stephen White monument, Douglas
TIden, sculptor, just erected in front of
Il the court house, was unveiled last week.
We had hoped that this monument, to
commemorate so notable a man, and because
something of feature among the interests of
the city so sadly in need Of sculptural art,
might be good II not great as 1t deserved. but
il is even a more conspicuous failure than the
one other monument in Central park, because
of its being far more pretentious, which be-
Genes almost burlesque, so lacking in dignity
and nobleness it is. The approach and base,
Though entirely out of proportion to the size
of the figure, are far more pleasing and artistic
than the statue itself. which Is bad in compost
tion and rendering from every point of view.
Everything has been carried out to detract
from the height of figure naturally short and
thick set, from the solid and poorly modelled
Greek chair to the texture which is rendered
in horizontal depressions. Viewing the statue
from the southwest the head and neck are gro-
tesque in outline and proportion, and the left
arm miserably stiff and ''woodeny." AS there
seem no redeeming qualities about this piece OF
work. it is difficult to understand how such
model could be accepted or decided upon. and
1t would be interesting to know just how and
why 1t shows the dire necessity for art edu-
cation in Los Angeles, and also the great inn
portanoe of having men who have some
knowledge and appreciation Of art, and who
would consider that alone in the granting Of
the public be so inflicted, the city so belittled
and the contributors so robbed in perpetuating
such atrocitiesY

Just as his carriage was being driven
up to the door of the merchants man
sion on California street Mr.. Truelove
was saying to his wife:
Nothing should be permitted to en-
eroach upon this, of all others, the
children's festival. Not a juvenile de-
fusion should be disturbed by doubling,
in their presence, the visitation of San
Ia Claus Soon enough will many of
them grow up to be cold, formal and
unbelieving in everything that has a
trace of goodness, purity or beauty
about it. Soon enough will the Christ
mastide lose its entertainments, it's mys-
teries and the glamor of its fairy tales
Soon enough will the rugged old Ice
lander with his seal fur cap and his
roguish smile and his bushy whiskers
lose his tabled identity and disappear
forever with his reindeer team of
charms"

entertaining and instructive talk on art Mon
day afternoon, the opening day OF the exhlpi-
ton. Tapestries were the main subject talked
upon, the history of the Gobelins being re-
counted in an interesting manner, and the de-
Velopment of the art through It's many stages.
The beauty of that wonderful tapestry used at
the coronation of King Edward VII, and after
ward purchased by Mr.. Morgan for SbOOOOO, put
which could not be brought to this country on
account of the duties, was described, ana made
us hope for the free art which is being sought

its many forms, and paints In both OIL and
water color.
William Wendt left during the week for Chi
cago. where Mrs. Wendt will join him next
week, and they will hold an exhibition of their
work, painting and sculpture, at the Art lnsti-
tute. Los Angeles is a great loser In not being
able to see and possess these splendid examples
of both these branches OF art and OF the work
Of these talented artists.

GEORGEE TRUELOVE'S DREAM

far, very far, upward-almost to
heaven-and a lovely angel, all COW
cred with a white robe, as white as
snow, came slowly down the LADDER
slowly, very slowly-unti she stepped
into this very room and stood pesloe
my bed-yes, right beside my little
bed: and, placing her beautiful white
hand upon my aching head, 1t mace
all the pain go away, and then she
said; Come, little Edith, come with
me. I will take you where the bright
est flowers forever bloom and where
birds sing their sweetest melodies and
where the sparkling fountains play
INCREASINGLY. Come to the blessed
abode of peace. where suffering and
woe are never known. Come to the
bosom of our Savior, for he Is calling
you home. Come, Edith, come And,
mamma-where are you, mamma
Give me your hand-there! Oh how
1 wanted to go with that good, dear
angel! But l thought how sad and
lonely you'd be without your Edith
near to comfort you, and l asked the
angel to let you 60 too, and we would
be so happy together. And when she
said, No, little one, Jesus wants but
YOU l asked her to please tell God
that I didn't want to go and leave poor
mamma all alone and to let me stay
little longer, and she kissed me and
slowly went UP the golden ladder.
drawing it up after her, and 1 heard
her call, Edith Edith! long time
after she left my bed. oh, mamma,
twas a happy dream, and when l
woke ane found that I was in this
cold, cherries room almost wished
it had been a truth and I had gone to
the bright, warm gardens; but when
1 saw how hard you worked 1 knew
you could not spare me, and tried TO
bel was-contented to stay with you.
But 1t is so SOLIDS there no fire? Oh,
mamma, I'm freezingi Wrap me
closer, closer. mamma; fold me in
your dear arms, for I know 1 am
freezing. Oh, mamma, there-there is
the golden ladder again! Look,
mammal Look on the wall; see, there
It is, and there is the beautiful angel.
Sec, she beckons to me and extends
her beautiful arms. I think-mamma-
I think-I must go-I must go
mamma-the angel-I-I-heaven Is
so-I-I-"
And the little form became quite
cold in it's mothers arms. Clasping 1t
to her heart. the distressed woman
pressed warm kisses upon tho lost
ones pale face; and then, fashioning
the body neatly up in the bed, the
widows being became deluged In the
full fountain of a mothers grief.

and through Market and Kearny
streets, where a perfect pageant met
his eyes. Never had he before witnessed
such a crowd. 1t was evident that the
lieutenants of Santa Claus were out in
full force. Not one of them had received
or even asked for a leave of absence.
None was on the sick list; all were
there in undress uniforms, carrying out
the orders of their superior officer. who
was already examining his team and
giving that attention to the harness
and other accessories of his bewitching
outfit which he never intrusted even to
a member of his household staff. Mr..
Truelove experienced much difficulty
in passing from his carriage to the
stores. No sardines were ever packed
closer together than were the human
beings in some of the bazaars. Vocifer-
atoms of joy and mirthfulness greeted
the ear upon ali sides and fat men and
women must have returned to their
nestlings with variegated tints of flesh,
so great was the human current they
were compelled to stem.

He has been d careful protector of the rights of his countrymen and has always sought to cultivate the most friendly relations between the officials of the two governments.
 MT. Fowler says that after the re- ceipt of this news MT. Pima had to change his plans considerably and for the present remain in the capital Mir LipshOn went ahead on his previously arranged itinerary.
 A portion of tho party instead of going to the west coast went to Tam pico where there is an American col onization project Most of the party that got as far as the City of Mexico also went to Guadalajara. This is city of perhaps l5OGO0 people of whom
  the 4th of July the excursionists were invited to and attended big ball giv- en in a large hall by the American club at Guadalajara. Most all of the Americans in the city belong to the club Gates NJ Fowler formerly of Phoenix is located there and engaged in the real estate business. With oth- CTS he has laid out an addition to the city designed to attract the American colony. He seems to have the founda tion laid for very good business and about fifteen nice residences have been built on the new ground and as many more contracted for.
 While in the City of Mexico. said Mir. Fowler Consul Pima gave the Ari- zcna excursionists his special and par ticular attention practically all of the time. He escorted them to the various places of interest and looked out for their welfare and convenience. He took them through the presidents place where they saw many historic things. Among others was a parchment per taining to land titles that was written with pen and ink 3S4 years ago. The paper was well preserved and the writing is yet very legible though a little faded. They did not gain admis- sion to the mansion at Chapultepic though saw it from the outside
 MT. Fowler said so far as he could judge. most of the Americans in Mex ico are prosperous and happy. They have good employment when they have any and most of them are in business on either a large or a small scale. and it takes less capital there to operate in many lines than it does here.

 The most notable change of pro- gram was by Consul Pima of this post who had for a travelling companion I. J. Lipsohn. They had planned to go from the City of Mexico to some other interior points. then to Vera Cruz and home via steamer to New York and west by rail. Arriving in the City of Mexico MT Pima was notified that the office of consul in this city was about to be taken away from him but that the powers above had decided to send him to Chicago at 5000 a month, to serve as general consul for the states of Illinois, Wisconsin and Minnesota.
