There was a chance for two of the

indicating that either Fales or Alden
would win. Ephraim Daniels and Otis.

their support would go to the others.
The next ballot would virtually decide,

Stiff Punishment.
One of the so-called "Woman's
World bills" provides penitentiary
punishment for the detention of girls
In disorderly houses under the pre-
tense OF debt and the second provides
a penalty of one to ten years in the

ings of white slaves, as Assistant
United States District Attorney Par
kin says some 5000 men in Chicago
do. Heretofore statutes have not
been explicit enough to make the laws
easily enforcible and the punishments
provided have been light Jail senten-
ces, which the culDrits have laughed
at. Great pains has been taken to
make these bills constitutional at ev-
cry point, some changes having been

bringing of girls into the state for i'm
moral purposes is being perfected.
Every lawyer realizes from cases
he has encountered in his practice

Perhaps the most important events
for church women in this city this
week are the lectures to be given

Presbyterian church. Mrs. Smith

Domestic Science and Home Econom-
ic clubs. Mrs. Frank Land, president
deavoring to have every club woman
hear these instructive lectures. The
following is a clipping concerning
Mrs Smith which will be of much
interest:
Mrs. Burton Smith met with a most
sive audience at the State Normal
school, which she visited in Athens
last week. The student body was
thoroughly in accord with the subject
she presented. Outside this fact, how
ever, the enthusiastic attention which
she secured was due to the charm
which characterized her manner of
presenting the subject. Beside being
thoroughly. practical. what she had to
say was altogether delightful. She
laid down the laws of health and ar
tistic environment with just such
beauty of speech and charm of man.

was held Thursday morning of the past
week in the Starr Piano parlors. An
excellent program on German compos-
ers was given.
Madame Schumann-Heink sang be-
fore the Emperor and Empress at the
Imperial castle on Wednesday after
noon. She had been requested to sing |
before the Empress on Sunday. and
Her Majesty was SO charmed with the |
great diva that she asked her, - a |
special favor, to some again on Wednes-
day afternoon, when she would arrange |
surprise for the Kaiser When the
singer entered the music room, At the |
appointed time. the Emperor and EN-
press were present, also the Queen OF
England, Prince Joachim and Princess
Victoria Luise. The great artist was
overwhelmed with attentions from
these royal personages- The Queen OF
England remembered Schumann-
Heink's singing at Windsor Castle some
years ago, when the King presented
her with a diamond and ruby brooch
In the name of Queen Victoria The
piece especially selected by the EN-
press for both Sunday and Wednesday
was Schubert's die Allmacht." She
also sang on Wednesday 'Das Erken-
men, and "Mutter an der Wiege." BY
Lowe. and like the good patriotic
American she is. she also sang The
Rosary" and George w. Chadwick's(
la Danza.' 1t will interest Mr.. Chad
wick to learn that the Emperor was
especially pleased with his compost
ton. He engaged Madame Schumann-
Heink in conversation and talked with
her for a long time. The Empress pre-
scented her with diamond brooch con-
tanning a crown and her initials.
The accomplishments were played by
Mrs Holman, of St. Paul, who, as has
been stated, is touring with Madame
Schumann-Heink in Europe this sea-
son.
Tina Lerner, the Russian pianist,
who has played with great success in
Boston, Worcester with the Boston
Symphony orchestra Hartford, Cleve-
land. Baltimore. Philadelphia. Spring
field. Montreal, Quebec. Washington.
D. c., and many other cities. was the
soloist with the Fittsburg symphony
orchestra in Pittsburg, March fifth and
sixth.
= - =
Never before have full symphony
orchestra and dramatic company ap-
peared together here and the attrac-
ton of two such eminent organizations
as the Russian Symphony Orchestra
and Ben Greet's compant Is potent
one. Mendelssohn's most popular
music was inspired Shakespeare's
great comedy of fairyland and fantasy
and his muscical setting will be done
full justice by the famous Russian
Symphony Orchestra The stage set
ting is considered one of the most ar
tistic and beautiful seen of late years.
Ben Greet's best role is thought by
many critics to be that of Bottom,
which he wilt play in this performance.
He is recognized as the best exponent
Of Shakespearian low comedy parts:
yet is equally successful with such a
part as Shylock-
A feature Of the performance will be
the group of children rendering the
fairy dances. They are said to be un-
usually we'll trained and the dances to
the accompaniment of Mendelssohn's
music by a symphony orchestra of 50
men under the magic baton of Modest
Altschuler the effect is said to be de-
light.
