were chosen to voice the grief of the
throng at his death and to speak the
eulogies echoed by the heart throbs Of
thousands. This honor fell to Rev. DR..
Henry Van Dyke, formerly pastor of the
Brick Presbyterian church and now pro-
lessor of English literature at Princeton
university, and DR.. Joseph Fl. Twitchell
of Hartford, a city for seventeen years
the authors home.
Issue Cards of Invitation.
Although the Brick church seats 1900
persons. it was by no means large
enough to contain all who had desired
to see for the last time the face of Mark
Twain. To ensure that all those who
rightly claimed the privilege should OBJ
tain it, cards of invitation to the num-
Der Of 400 were issued with the under
standing that when these had been
presented the door would be open to the
was announced, the opportunity would
be given for those outside to enter the
church and file past the plain mahogany
coffin in which the body Of the dead
humorist had been placed.
In keeping with the known sentiments
of Mr.. Clemens there will be no vocal
music and no pallbearers. Two organ
selections, brief prayers and the few
words of eulogy will constitute the
service.
Mark Twain's sympathies were catho-
lie, and his circle of friends embraced
both the high and the lowly. Many men
who knew him in public and private life
will attend the services. These will in
clude representatives from the Lotos. the
Authors and the Players clubs, prom
inent publishers and editors, eminent
members of the bench and bar, and lit
erary men and women of note.
Second Service at Elmira.
After the services, the body will be
placed Oh train and taken to Elmira,
where a second service, as simple as the
first, will be conducted on Sunday after
noon.
The burial will be in the Clemens plot
in the Elmira cemetery, where Mrs.
Clemens and the children of the couple
are buried.
Within the next ten days public OPP
portunity will be given for the num-
bers unable to attend the services to-
day to show their respect for Mr.. Glenn
ems. This will be at memorial service
arranged by we'll known men who cher
ish the memories of years of friendship
with the author. The programme of this
meeting will include brief addresses by
admirers of Mr.. Clemens humor and
wisdom.

Rebels Active on Coast.

City OF Mexico, Nov. 23.-The
Diaz forces claim to have captured
Gomex Palacio after fierce battle,
and reports from southern Mexico,
although suppressed by Diaz, ind1-
cate widespread revolution with
many battles. All along the east
coast the rebels are active and many
think that Veracruz will fall in a
few days, after which the rebels,
with a clear field behind them, will
march north to join forces with
Madero and face the Diaz army.
Diaz is straining every nerve to sup-
press the revolution in detail before
the rebels can concentrate them
selves. He has ordered the troops
to shoot down mobs and capture
rebels and have them tried by drum
head courtmartial and executed.

CHICAGO'S POLICE CHIEF
TELLS WOMEN A FEW THINGS

Chicago, Nov. 23-On the women
of Chicago the responsibility for a
thorough cleanup has been placed
by Chief of Police Steward, who, in
addressing the Chicago Woman 8
club, declared: Until the women
get out their brooms and do the
sweeping, we never will get this
town clean morally and physically.
Men haven't the time or the moral
conception and not one man in ten
knows enough outside of his business
to be allowed to vote. Already there
are too many city ordinances as we'll
as too many laws, but if woman
owns an automobile, she does not
observe the traffic rules. A woman
in an electric runabout will go
straight down the middle of street
and make all the faster machines
run around her, or she will turn
straight into the curb without warn
ing to, anyone. Four women will
walk abreast down the sidewalk, and
nine will wait for cars side by side,
endangering the lives Of those who
| must walk around them to cross
| the street." Chief Steward has some
very~ definite ideas of what is needed
for city girls who are arrested, and
he added: Every year there are
thousands of girls brought in by po-
licemen, who are not bad, but they
are herded with criminals. They
Eshould have the benefit of kind
words and treatment, and have spe-
cIal accommodations and care" The
ballot for women, Chief Steward
held to be unnecessary, because OF
their influence with men. In re
Egard to the over supply of law,
| which everyone recognizes and nc
one corrects, he said: ''The best thing
the legislature could do this wfnte,
would be to repeal half the existing
laws, and then adjourn for three
years. You cry out, "Why don't this
policemen enforce the 1aws?" Why
don't you, for that is your business?

AS the jobbing center of the Missis-

general prosperity. The charitable
organizations of this city have ar
ranged to feed all of the poor ana
unfortunate, and number Of din

THE SPIDERS SECRET.

For long time the web of the
spider was supposed to be a simple
strand of wavy silk, but later it was
found that such was far from being
The case.
Under the microscope we can get
at the secret of the spinning very
nicely, says the Popular magazine.
We see that there are either four OF
six teats on the spider at the lower
part OF the abdomen. almost exactly
similar to the teats of the COW. From
these issue four or six strands as the
case may be, but these strands them
selves are not simple, but are com
posed of at least thousand fibres
each, for it has been proven that il.
each teat there is a sieve of at least
a thousand holes through which the
silky matter is strained. Thus we SEE
that fine as is the spiders web it is
yet composed from four to six thous-
and fibres. Leuwenhoeck states that
it would take at least four million Of
the completed threads to make a
thread as strong as silk thread OF
the size of a hair.
However, there are some tropica,
spiders that spin threads that are
| known to be very strong; so strong
in fact, as to be able to catch and
hold humming birds.
AS to the color of the thread, our
ordingary spiders spin one of uni
form gray color, but in the rlotous
tropics there are found spiders that
spin vari-colored webs. One, par
ticularly, produces red, yellow, and
black, which it binds together witt.
a pleasing color effect.
In the thread of spider lies DOR
mant a great industry once it is
properly studied. Numerous attempts
have been made to utilize the thread
for cloth to make clothes, etc. All
have so far been doomed to failure.
Anyhow, as a financial proposition
1t is related that Louis the XIV had
a dress made from SPIDERS web
but which was so fragile that he be-
came disguised with it,. The entom-
ologist D'Orbigny had made for him
self pair of trousers from the webs
of tropical spiders which lasted for
a long time.

LODGE WOULD ENTER
THE DIPLOMATIC Field

Washington, Nov. 23.-Here's the
secret made public: Senator Lodge
wants to go to st. James as ambas-
sador from the United States. Sen
ator Lodge is due to have some trou-
bic in being sent back to Washing
ton as Senator-so much trouble, in
fact, that he is said to agree that the
ambassadorship to England would
do very we'll.
In political circles, it is said there
is a very good chance that Lodge
may secure this new honor. 1t has
been reported many times of late
that Ambassador Reid wants to be
relieved of his duties. This would
make it fair sailing for Lodge.
From reliable source it is learn.
ed that at this conference the am
bassadorship was discussed by the
two senators, but that they agreed
that Mr.. Lodge would only accept il
as last resort.
Senator Lodge is blamed even by
the republican leaders now more
than ever for the high prices in this
state, for the defeat of Governor
Draper by Eugene N. Foss at the re-
cent election. and the senator him
self became aware of the real feel
ing against him when democrats
were elected from his own town, Ma
liant, which for 90 years or more
never sent other than republican
to the state house.
