Another Artistic Event Is Added

$500 More Needed to Keep the
Widow and Children from Be-
ing Turned Into Street

Miss Anne Kavanaugh, known and
beloved throughout the library and ar
tistic circles of Los Angeles, will read
at the Vidal benefit Tuesday evening.
Character Sketches" is the only name
she will give to her reading at this
date for 1 never know" she explained,
what 1 will read till am face to face
with my audience and get an idea OF
what they would like. I'll just go on
the stage and make up my mind after
I'm on as to what I'll say" Miss KaV-
anaugh has recently opened studio
in Blanchard hall, leaving her Holly
wood studio part of the time so that
she may be in the city.
A booth at the Roston store Will be
opened Monday, November 2l, for the
sale of tickets to the concert. This
booth will only be run one day, the sale
being continued both Monday and the
day after at the regular places: The
Herald office, Boswell & Noyes drug
store, John o. knight company, He'll
man building, Mullen & Bluet6 and
with William Eimers, 1919 Santee street.
In spite of the many weeks of appeal
to the public and the generous re-
sponses thereto there yet remains near
ly 5000 to be raised on the Vidal fund.
This means that unless the rest of the
tickets go before Tuesday night all the
efforts of the last few weeks will have
been in vain or that subscription list
will have to be started among the cap
italists of the city, as Col. Lankershim
suggested.
of all the charitable demands in the
city today there is none so absolutely
dependent on the Lublic generosity as
Mrs. Vidal. The Children's hospital,
though in need of help, is so situated
financially that it will run even IL the
public donation is small; the women
back of 1t have so much wealth that
it could be tided cver many slippery
places. The Salvation Army and the
Volunteers of America have organiza-
tions back of them so that they are
not wholly dependent on the people.
But unless the public itself comes to
the aid of Mrs. Vidal she is helpless.
Her home will go and there will be
neither individuals or an organization
to fall back on. The benefit will prove
the goodness of the people in general.

THE report of the Commission
of Fisheries for IooS-o is before
" through the courtesy Of the
chairman of the Board. Its finan-
cial portion has already been Civ
en- our readers in an earlier issue.
Too many matters of Importance
appear therein to have been given
the study necessary for comment
at so early a date, therefore we
have given study only to those
portions recommeniinglegislation
which effects our people here.
The alarm OF the fishermen APP
pears to have been unnecessary
as TO the Board defined no special
law which will be brought before
the legislature, NEVERTHELESS as
the report states thatsomechanges
in the laws will be asked for it is
well for them TO be on their guard
and ready to fight if necessary.
Theportion recommending oys-
ter legislation is less satisfactory.
The natural rocks in the rivers Of
Mathews AMI Gloucester and also
those of Mobjack Bay should be
rented out. says the BOARD. The
citizens interested in these rocks
can Judge for themselves whether
or not a sufficient quantity of
them are not already rented out.
They also advocate the straight
ening of the lines of the Baylor
SURVEY in James River. which
appears all right if as much ground
is let out as is taken in. Thew al
so recommend that the lines of
the Baylor Survey be run over
again and stationary works be
made. which appears to be a good
idea,
We are giving to the oystermen
and fishermen these facts without
much comment in order that they
may see what the commission ad-
vocates in regard to these things
in which they are interested. A
petition has already been sent to
the Legislature by the convention
which met in Newport News on
Tuesday asking that the BAYLOR
Survey be left as it is and that no
change be made in the fish laws.
Should other action be necessary
we desire that our people be
ready.

of the week the report of the
death of Mr.. John A. Enos comes
to us to-day. After suffering from
an incurabie disease for a long
time the end came on Tuesday

Wednesday on p. m. by Rev,
]. Arthur Vim, and the body laid

Mr.. Enos was the son Of Mr..

lived in Mathews during his entire
life. He was known in every Sec
ton of the county and his many
admirable traits of character
made him generally liked. He
leaves a wife and two little ones,
a brother and two sisters besides
many friends to mourn the loss of
a loved one and true friend. To
all Of these the JOURNAL extends
its sincere sympathy.
