The Evening Chit-Chat
BY RUTH CAMERON

Doubtless most of you have read in
your newspapers within the last few
weeks of sthe death of Americas grand
old woman, Julia Ward Howe.
And by the obituary notices you were
doubtless reminded of Mrs. Howe's
having written the Battle Hymn of
the Republic" and of her great services
to the cause of abolition.
I happened to have the great honor
of knowing Julia Ward Howe and of
being occasionally received into her
home, and L want to tell you the thing
that impressed me the most about her.
And that was, not the work that she
had accomplished, but simply the won
derfuIly beautiful old age which the
quality of her life made possible for
her.
You cannot often say beautiful old
lady" and really mean it. You could OF
her. l never saw young woman who
gave any more pleasure to the eye than
this exquisite old lady as she held
sway from her Throne Chair" as her
visitors call it.
She almost always wore a lavender
gown and a white lace cap beneath
which her white hair was parted and
drawn softly back. Her hands and face
looked as IL they were out of ivory
Thomas Lawson, who paid her beauti-
full tribute at her death, called her 4

me think more of lavender, ivory, ole
| lace. and things of that sort.
! But the really beautiful thing about
her vast he wonderful expression of tina
old face. You see, Mrs. Howe had never
stopped really thinking, never ceased
being interest in things. She has had
large family and done her duty by
them. A lovlier family of children anc

IS IT FAIR?
By EDWIN A. NYE.

IS IT FAIR?
Yes, he is a bum.
There is no mistaking his sort
Blotched face, bleared eyes, cringing
pose. in whining voice he begs you
for dime to buy sandwich when
you know it is drink that he wants.
If he gets your 10 cents and an
other or two, that will be enough to
make him comfortably drunk. Some
how he will get more cheap whisky
after awhile, and then he will be
dumped into the police wagon along
with other refuse humanity.
Wretched body of death.
And yet do you know that vag is

it licenses the saloon keeper to sell

grandchildren you could not hope to
see. But she has always had time to be
interested in the outside world, to
study, to read, to be thoroughly alive.
Mrs. Howe was ninety-one when she
died, and yet up to her last illness she
wrote a little every day, read a little
Greek and Latin, and practiced at her
piano. Last spring there was some
question about the purity of the milk
the Boston babies were getting. and it
was Julia Ward Howe's pen and pres
ence that aroused the public in this
serious matter
There is a little story about portrait
of Mrs. Howe. which her son-in-law
John Elliott painted, without which no
tribute to her is complete. 1t seems
| to me this illustrates her greatest
service to American women.

Howe sitting in her morning room

laws studio in Italy. Queen Margherita.
who was at the exhibit, was so impress
ed by this picture that she would
scarcely look at any other. She asked
many questions about the original, and
as she was about to leave came to Mr..
Elliott and said, you tell me that this

woman of your country, but tell you
hiatt it is a picture of old age as 1t
ought to be-
1t seems to me it isn't what Julia

abolition cause that markes her such
a great figure. 1t Is more the quanty

Of human plague has appeared in San
Francisco in two years and -four
months and no case of rat-plague has
been found there in a year and six

This war on rats is mostly in the
nature of phophylatic measure against
reinfection. Thirty laborers are em-
ployed exclusively as rat trappers.
There are in constant use about 5000

During May 1864 rats were trapped.

Grand Forks, N. D., July ga
thrilling race between Arch Hoxsey
in his aeroplane and an automobile
was the feature event of the 1910 Grand
Forks fair. The attendance yesterday
was not quite up to that Of previous
days.
The track for the aeroplane had
been laid at the west end Of the in
field to permit Hoxsey to rise against
the wind. The aeroplane was pushed
down to that point on its detachable
In the meantime ]. d. Bacon's speedy
fifty horse power automobile had been
brought out on the track ready for
the five mile race with the aeropIane.
At 4:04 Hoxsey rose from the earth
and after a short preliminary flight
circled back for the start and they
were off with the big automobile few
lengths in the lead. In the ten turns
around the track the spectators had an
excellent opportunity to realize the
speed of of the aeroplane. The auto
mobile was driven skillfully and as
fast as the half mile track would per-
NIT and still the biplane, battling with
a twenty five mile wind, kept close be-
hind. SeveraI times Hoxsey gained
enough to pass before the grandstand
almost straight above the auto and
once toward the end of the race in
rounding the west end Of the track
Hoxsey was ahead. Coming down
the stretch he was buffeted by strong
gusts of wind and was at the same
time forced to rise in the air to pass
lost his lead He was unable to re-
gain it and finished a4speedy and ex-
citing race about fifty feet behind.
Many times the audience broke out
with cheers and seemed anxious that
Hoxsey should win and there are a
great many who believe under better
conditions that he would have pulled
out ahead. He was flying under great
difficulties. The speed of the wind
and the gusts that caught the big
planes would have caused most of the
men in the business of awaiting to re-
fuse to make an attempt to carry out

splendid manner in which he handled
his machine filled the hearts Of the
people with admiration for his cool
ness, nerve and daring.

At the close of the. race Hoxsey rose
higher in the air and gave the people
