Our beautiful Hall of Fame fosters heroisn of another type. Here the entire life work is the basis of judg ment What 1as man or woman done to lift him above the rank and file, what permanent contributions has he made to thought, to civiliza- ton. to religion? They who meet this test must have had tine patience, the endurance, the insight, the native ca pacity, the instinct for hard labor, the ambition, that are fundamental quali- ties in exceptional characters. When a poet like Poe can embody his strange fancies in beautiful and enduring verse; or another like Harriet Beecher Stowe can put their passion for free dom and righteousness into story that stirs the nation when q preacher like Phillips Brooks can make God real to men, the college presidents and pro- fessors of history and the other learn ed men who have a right to vote on the subject. deem them worthy of a place in our modern Hall of Fame.
 Which kind of a hero would you like to be? Would you, by some brave. self forgetting act arrest attention and receive plaudits or would you prefer the glory that comes from steady, la borious patient employment of the peculiar talents which God has given you. but which would never come to their fullest expression u.-iess the bit Of genus III you were JOl1led WlCn all indomita'ble purpose always to do your best.
 Perhaps we ought to aspire to both lxinds of fame, to be ready alike for the short cut and the long pull, but when I build my temple of fame I shall reserve liberal space for three kinds of heroes.
 First, the mothers of the race, shall have ample representation, for no sol- dier on the battlefield, no hero of 8 drowning episode, no thinker or artist devoted to his work, shows more stay ing capacity, more patient fidelity. more unquenchable love, more self effacing and constant regard for otI.- CTS.
 Second. I will have special niches for the men who have met and over come particular diversity, handicap or calamity, who have mastered the temptation to blame God for what hap pened to them, and whose cross has been the means of the highest personal development.
 Third there shall be 6 number of statues in honor of the routine workers

! have a notion that there is too much unspeakable truth lying round In the corners of life, and it is like the lint in the dark places and the dirt in the corners of d neglected home, menace to our professed good ness. We are none of us good as we should like to have the world think we are; and very few of us are as bad as we seem. We could evangelize the world if we would and fifty-two mil lions will not accomplish the feat if man will not If we knew of one evangeliZed state we should have faith there might be an evangelical coun- try; and if there was an evangelized country have hope of an evangelized world. Divine power operates through love and by the will of man being in consonance with the will of Good If our morality has too much lint and dirt in the corners we should expect 1t to pollute the atmosphere and to produce the effects lint and dirt do everywhere.

Of course, it IS the under dog who shouts loudest for equality, and nine times in ten he and his ilk are pro- motors of the inequality of which he so loudly complains. Equality cannot be haled with a shout by man into all the ranks of life. but it can be lost by the negligence and laziness and general ineptitude of those who get themselves into the slough of inequaI- ity and then shout so loudly to be res cued from the results of their own fol- Iy.

Red Ledge Development

News reaches here from Buffalo that
the Red Ledge mine in the SCOTS nat
division of the Allegheny gold bonanza
zone will very likely be worked upon
a much larger scale than 1t has been
for several years. At present only
"a small force of men is at work on
the mine, driving the tunnel ahead,
practically prospecting the formation.
Considerable development has already
been accomplished, but the vein Is such
an exceedingly large one that the de-
veIopment, which would be regarded
as extensive for ledge of ordinary
size, is in this case as is jackknife

mite and iron, lying between dixie of
serpentine and a bed of slate. being in
effect a "serpentine contact" vein. Some
years ago an attempt was made to op-
crate the mine, but on the burning
down of the mill the project was aban-
doned and the property passed into the
ownership of the Bank mining and pro-
motion company, the principal stock

WHITE SLAVERY
ROUSES PROTEST
Rabbi Nieto Says Vice Could
Be Controlled if People
Would Act

Rabbi Jacob Nieto, in an address on
civic conditions in San Francisco de-
livered before the Commonwealth club
at it's luncheon in the Palace hotel yes
terday urged that vigorous measures
be taken toward the suppression of the
white slave traffic. He also said that
tag days should not be tolerated again
as it let the rich masquerade as charit-
able at the expense of the poor mans
pocket book.
Strikes and lockouts, he said, should
be prevented, and labor differences adj
justed, as the public was the sufferer.
He said rights were involved on both
sides. but prejudice and q desire to
secure advantages blinded fairness.
Fashionable Summing parties were
scored. He said the habit of taking
women to vile dives under cloak of de-
cency served to make the unfortunate
inmates believe they were heroic and
partly justified in their lives. White
slavery, he said, was not peculiar to
San Francisco, but had been brought
here since the fire and could be con-
trolled If the citizens would act.
The cure for the dance hall and sa
lon evil, he said, was in the substitution
of social centres under proper surveil-
lance. He urged a judge solely for the
Juvenile court, and spoke against mass
ing the de1inquents- With vehemence
he said panderers were worse than
murderers, and should be the only ones
to bear the capital punishment
T. B. Bocarde's term as chairman of
the club ended yesterday and Charles
wesley Reed will be chairman for the
ensuing three months.

FRENCH THEATERS USE
AN EXPENSIVE CLAQUE

The claque is considered an expen-
sive though necessary adjunct to
every French theater. One manager
has devised a plan to save some ex-
pense by introducing a mechanical
claque under the orchestra floor. -Four
sets Of hammers, fixed at certain dis
tances apart. when set in motion serve
to initiate the knocking of sticks and
umbrellas on the floor, while a couple
of large castanets covered with parch-
ment and striking against each other
by means of a spring form a good sub
stitute for the clapping of hands. Elec-
trio wires lead from this apparatus to
a compartment, where they are con-
nected with levers arranged like the
keys of a piano. The sound produced by
the operator of this contrivance pene-
trates through openings under the
seats of the orchestra and boxes.
