AZTEC DANCE ENLIVENS
FIESTA IN SAN ANTONIO
Dramatic Pantomime TypifieS
Early Mexican TribuIation

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Sept. 17.-At
the Mexican fiesta now going on in
San Antonio in celebration of the CEN
tennial of their country one of the most
striking and interesting features is the
Aztec dance known as the Matachine.
In one of the parks typical Mexican
village with quaint thatChed roofs has
been constructed. Here the Mexican
women make and sell tortillas, hot
tamales and other peppery dishes. At
night dancing, speaking and other
amusements draw big crowds.
In the matachine the girl is an Aztec
and represents the conquered people.
The man takes the part of the Spanish
cavalier typical of the victor. They
wear gaudy costumes and the dance is
d sort of dramatic pantomine mixed
with singing. The man makes the ad e
vanCes, the woman retreats. He points
to his spur and gaudy clothes and tells
her that he is a powerful Spaniard,
that she must become his slave and
grind his corn. The woman scorns him,
the cruel fate that has be-
fallen the people.
So the love scene is enacted to the
trains of weird music. Despite it's
it is a symbolic impression
of life drama of nation. The program
is varied with two other Mexican
dances called the Jarabe and the In
dos del Guarisamen.

JAYHAWKERs JOIN
IN ANNUAL OUTING
Kansas Society Enjoys Program
of Songs, instrumental
Music and Speeches
ATTENDANCE REACHES 1900
Address of John w. HuntSberger
on John Brown Is Fea-
ture of the Day
ATTENDANCE REACHES 1900

Approximately 1900 natives of Kansas
attended the annual picnic of the Kan
sas State society in Sycamore grove
yesterday. They enjoyed a program
which embraced songs, instrumental
music and speeches. Basket lunches
were spread on the long picnic table.
The day had been named John
Browns day." and for this reason the
address of John w. Huntsberger on
John Brown was the feature of the
day, He reviewed the career of the
noted abolitionist in a new light.
To Mr. Huntsberger, himself a Kan
san, thoroughly familiar with the facts
and traditions of John Browns bio
graphy, the abolitionist appears much
different than he does to the average
reader who has not investigated his
religion and personal attributes. In the
course of his speech Mr.. Huntsberger
said:
"Over half century ago there was
fopght out upon the soil of our native
state a struggle that portended the
greatest battles for liberty that has
ever been waged since time began,
Kansas was soon to be admitted in this
great galaxy of states, either free or
slave state and in response to her
call for aid there came to her beautiful
prairies thousands of men who had no
fear of death when heart and duty
called. They came stout of heart and
firm of purpose, determined that no
bondman should ever inherit her plains
and that she should be forever a state
free and undehled. Among the first to
respond to that call was John Brown,
John Brown, who sounded forth the
trumpet that never called retreat.
DESCRIBES CHARACTER
"Born Of humble New England
parentage, reared in the hard and
rugged school of adversely; graduated
in the university of the open field, he
gave his life to the service of his fell
low men, as with the light he had he so
construed that service. He was an ex-
man in many respects.
Quiet. devout, without grace or charm
of manner, and almost childlike in his
nature. He was a deeply religious
character and believed that in all that
he did in that great struggle in Kansas
he did it as the aVenging nstru-
ment of a righteous Supreme Ruler of
men. And no wonder we thought him
insane, for our hearts were beating
time to the little things here on earth |
while his great heart and mind were |
in tune with the Infinite.
tAt the home of a friend in Pennsyl- |
vania he formed an attachment for a |
negro boy of about his own age. While |
visiting in this home he saw himself |
treated with respect and given the best !
comforts of the home, while his little |
friend with the black skin was forced |
TO sleep in the outsheds and was |
whipped and cruelty beaten. And al |
though but youth there was aroused

JAMES f. cBREAT JR SECRETARY AMERICAN MINING CONGRESS
Secretary Cabeath Says Every Delegate Wishing the Floor Will
Be Heard-He Is Not PnCho Man and Does Not Propose
to Take Sides-Nine- Tenths of Oil and Mining Men -
Are Opposed to the Policy of Conservation
BY JAMES WYNKOOP

a western man, sees that the popular
cry Of Pinchot and the rest of them is
the sentiment of the mining west. AS
secretary of the American Mining con-
gress Mr.. Callbreath must speak
guardedly and with great tact but
nevertheless he expressed himself yes
terday as opposed to any legislation
that would in any way interfere with
or retard the growth of the mining in
dustr of the west.
Mr.. Callbreath is not a Pinchot man,
nor a Roosevelt man, but a mining
man Of the west. From all appear
ances he is taking no side whatever
and seems to wish, as secretary of the
American Mining congress, to let the
other fellow do the talking. Whether
conservation is going to be sustained
or opposed is a matter Mr.. Callbreath
is anxious to find out, that something
can be done at Washington suitable
to the wishes of the mining men of
the west.
Mr.. Callbreath is especially anxious
to learn the views of the oil men of
California, for he believes that some
thing in the way of legislation can be
wrought beneficial to them, but, as he
says, it is up to the oil men themselves
to cooperate with the congress in its
fight for western mining interests.
Mr.. Callbreath says everybody who
Is a delegate to the convention will
be permitted to speak; that the discus
sion of every subject will be absolutely
free, and that the congress will fight
the battle of the oil men if they wish it,
Asked about the program Of the con-
vention, Mr.. Callbreath said that the
program was merely to include those
which were to serve as leads
for discussion, and that after these
papers were read. or speeches made,
the subject would be entirely open to
all delegates

divine. And he then determined that
his life and efforts should be devoted
to the destruction of this great wrong
in our country.
FIGHTS IN KANSAS
But a few years hence we find him
travelling over the eastern part of the
United States, endeaVoring to secure
funds with which to carry on the war
for free state in Kansas. over half
a century ago he came with his six
sons, stern of purpose and with o cour-
ageous heart TO engage in that bloody
border warfare that was destined to
throw our country into the greatest
struggle for liberty that has ever been
waged on this earth. With a few faith
full followers he carried on relentlessly
and without ceasing the fight to keep
from without her borders those who
were determined that Kansas should
sanction the cause of slavery.
Il need not tell you of the fight he
made there, of the suffering he endured,
of the battles he fought of the great
he conferred upon your state
and mine, and of the great victory that
he won, for those events are history
now. And now after the heat and bit
ter sectional feeling of the time have
somewhat cooled those heated hearts
and minds, JOhn Brown STANDS f0rth
today a man honored and revered
this great country of ours,
and, indeed, among all the peoples Of
this earth.
PAYS DEATH PENALTY
with the fight won in Kansas he
now determined upon a course that was
destined to bring about his own igno-
death upon the gallows, but
was destined also to make a nation
free. with his still faithful handful of
men we find him next in Virginia in

BLAME IF THERE Is ANY
Issues Statement on Explosion
on the North Dakota

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE find
ing of the naval court which investi-
gated the recent oil explosion and fire
on the battleship North Dakota, that
the accident was due to faulty design
and installation, appears to have led
to a great deal of comment in the
press. This has caused the navy de-
partment to make public today state
ment as follows:
"The installation of the oil burners
is after designs that have been used
in other navies for a long time with
great success. Furthermore, all the
detailed plans were approved by the
navy department. Under the circum-
stances no one can be held account
able unless it is the navy department.;
provided the installation was in accord
with the approved designs"

REAR MEMORIAL
"a few days ago, back in our own
beautiful. state they dedicated a great
park. clothed in a green blanket of
Yerdure, covered with beautiful trees
and set out in sweet scented flowers, as
a fitting monument to his memory, and
reared upon it white marble shaft in
his honor Such a park is, indeed,
fitting tribute to the life and achieves
ments of this man, and each year as it
clothes itself with it's carpet of green
the spirit of John Brown Will be born
anew, and it shall not die until the
world swings free"
In the center of the long picnic table
used for the speakers was a likeness
of John Brown. The picture was an
oil painting, the work of Mrs. P. c.
Tabor, and had been presented to the
society by G. Major Taber, who was
with John Brown and his men the
night before their raid on Harper's
Ferry.
The program opened with tho singing
of John Browns Soul Goes Marching
On" led by Mrs. Charlotte Weaver.
John P. st. John, former governor of
Kansas, who was to have been the ora
tor of the day, was not present.
G.. Major Tabor recited a poem in
memory of John Brown.
The Rev Irving r. Lovejoy chose to
talk on Kansans as citizens. They are |

have the courage of their convictions"

That Englishmen are not liked ,by
the Canadians may be judged from the
fact that the Hamilton Spectator an
nounces it will not publish advertise
ments in which it is said: mo Eng
lisfxnen need apply" The Englishman
who goes to Canada renders himself
unpopular with the natives by his
supercilious airs and pretensions to
aristocratic lineage. The Canadians are
a plain. democratic people who have
no use for Englishmen who want soft
jobs and boast of their ancestry. They
want men who are not afraid to work
in new country and not snobs who
consider themselves superior to their
associates of humble origin. The day
is fast approaching when Canada will
not suffer itself to be nomnally ruled
by an Englishman as governor general.
A native-born Canadian can attend to
the affairs of the Dominion better than
imported aristocrats from the British
islands.
The Irish standard., 1910-02-05

The British look with envy on Ger
many's growing greatness and, Of late,
they are getting scared Of her. Ger
many, however, is not responsible for
British timidity.
1t is surprising to hear such an ad-
mission from the British minister of
foreign affairs as that England 'could
be starved into absolute submission
in month";" But it is a fact, and
every other nation knows it. That ac-
counts for her eagerness to form an
alliance with the United states. When
this country was engaged in Civil War
England did every thing possible to
disrupt the union. Now she fiatters
and fawns. while she is as Jealous Of
Americans as she Is of the Germans.
She must realize that she can no
longer monopolize the trade of the
world, and that she will have to meet
competition.

St. Riase.

st. Blase devoted the earlier years
Of his life to the study Of philosophy,
and afterwards became a physician.
In the practice of his profession he
saw SO much of the miseries of life.
and the hollowness of worldly pleas
ures, that he resolved to spend the
rest Of his days in the service Of God,
and from being healer of bodily all
ments to become physician of souls.
The Bishop Of Sebaste, in Armenia,
having died, the Saint, much to the
qualification of the Inhabitants of that
city. was appointed to succeed him.
st. Blase at once began to instruct his
people as much by his example as by
his words, and the great virtues ard
sanctity Of this, servant of God wore
attested by many miracles. From all
parts the people came flocking to him
for the cure of bodily and spiritual
ills. Agricolaus, Governor of Cappa-
docia and the Lesser Armenia, having
begun a persecution by order of the
Emperor Licenius, the Saint was
seized and hurried OFF to prison. While
on his way there, distracted mother,
whose only child was dying of a throat
disease, threw herself at the feet Of
st. Blase and implored his interces-
sion. Touched at her grief, the Saint
offered up his prayers, and the child
was cured; and since that time his
aid has often been effectually solicited
in cases Of a similar disease. Refusing
to worship the false gods of the hea-
thens, st. Blase was first scourged, his
body was then torn with hooks, and
finally he was beheaded in the year
-316.
