manent abiding-place for themselves
or their offspring.
Let us drive away the incubus Of
rent that eternally hangs over their
struggling lives. Then instead Of
wizened and weeping faces will be the
bright smiles of the happy widow;
in the place Of the cries of children
will be youthful shouts, making the
Welkin ring, while their childish feet
are scurrying to the school on the
hill then in the place of a heavy
conscience and restless pillow, our
dreams will be sweet, our homes will
be brighter, and new light will
shine in our lives that we never
knew before. Instead of a piteous
moan coming on the wings of the
night winds from hearts wrung with
woe, there will come stealing to us
with the voices of the night the voice
of the orphan lisping at it's mothers
ing to the giver of every good and
perfect gift, that weary hearts, tired
feet and aching frames had at last
found a roof to shelter that the hand
of no landlord could remove, and
whose closed door would never bear
the ominous inscription, For Rent.

Editor Montgomery Times:

low me to say word through the
columns of your valuable paper,
touching my recent proposition to
build home for needy and deserving
widows and orphans
When John Payne wrote
BE it ever so humble,
There is no place like home"
he touched a chord which meets a
responsive echo in the hearts of all
humanity; he expressed a sentiment
that is the wool and warp of the
fabric of all happiness
Home!"
What nameless charm clusters
around that heayen-born appellation,
and it's significance
The happy home, the reflection of
that abode beyond the stars, where
the tragedy of death will never be
enacted, and falling tears transform
ed into imperishable gems and
Shine forever more
The home is the hope of the re-
public; the bulWark of our liberties,
and the citadel of our strength and
glory as nation.
We have banded together for as.
high and holy a purpose as ever in
spired the breast of mortal-the
building of homes for those worthy
widows and orphans within our
gates whose enfeebled condition, and
inadequate means, stand like an AL
pine mountain range between them
and reasonable livelihood
Wizened and wan, the weary widow
tolls the day through, with emaciat-
cd Cd and aching hands, and when with
n,ain-racked frame she seeks her rest
less pillow, it is only to be haunted
in her dreams by the vision of
the dawn of darkening morn, when
she shall seek again with heavy
heart an abiding-plaee for herself
and babes-because there is not
enough to buy bread and pay rent
The Widows and Orphans Home
Building Association is to excite in
interest in, and provide ways and
means for constructing cottages for
the deserving widows and orphans of
Montgomery-for those poor women
with their families who are unable
to earn living and meet rent pay
ments.
| ask, Mr. Editor, can a more pa
triotic service be conceived of?
Until that day when the trump of
the angel shall sound the termina-
ton of all earthly things, we will
have the poor with u.s.
Far back in the dim mysteries of
the hidden past, Cain cried out: "Am
my brothers keeper" The echo and
response is sounding down through
the ages; sounding in our ears to-
day:
The widows moan,
The orphans pathetic appeal

merce drown the sad refrain, nor the

Captain Odom Gives Reason For
Building Home For Poor

Iimony against us to the great Je-
hovah
Can the most fertile imagination
evolve happier plan of solving
this question of caring for destitute
widows and orphans, proposition
embodying more wholesome features,
than that of building nice little cot
tages for them to live in; a place
they can call home, and that is home
(for it is the purpose of this asso-
citation to give the homes to the
POOR, where every patter of the
winter rain on the roof is not taken
for the landlords tread, and where
every moan Of the wintry wind is
not mingled with the cry Of the wolf
where the bright hearth CLOVIS and
the happy mother sings and sews,
with merry babes at her feet, and
peace in her heart?
We are preparing an appropriate
cut to adorn our stationery it rep
resents Montgomery as a fair wo-
man. beauteous of form and comely
to behold-laurel crowned-emerg-
ing from characteristic symbols of
prosperity, bestowing upon a poor
widow, with her children grouped
about her, a pretty and comfortable
little cottage. Expert engravers are
at work on the design, and when
completed it will be as handsome and
attractive piece of work as was ever
displayed in this section.
Montgomery was the first capital
of the Confederacy, and with this
proud city is associated many glori
Gus memories dear to the heart Of
all true Southerners. It was from
here the lightning's spark flashed
that loosed the dogs of war against
the invaders of Southern soil; rocked
in the fiery cradle of revolution, here
was born and nurtured that mo-
mentous struggle for constitutional
liberty.
Montgomery is famed for her
brave, patriotic men and noble wom-
en- she has left her lasting i'm
print on Southern history's bright
est page.
Montgomery is famed for her gen
crosby and liberality; her great
heart is not unmindful of the suf-
erers' appeal, whether it comes from
a sister city, under the shadow of at
fiction, or for those within her gates.
But Montgomery, the proud, the
brave, the chiyalric, the magnani-
nous, will eclipse all of her former
glories, and outshine all of her for
mer achievements, when she moldS
into reality the symbols of
this institution-which will stand
depicted on it's stationery-and
crowns the hearts and lives of the
first family of poor widows and
orphans with her first gracious offer
ing in the form of a comfortable
cottage, thus launching an enter
prise at once so humane, SO patriotic
and so noble, that by the magnet Of
it's worthiness will command the

POLICE RAID
ON EXCLUSIVE
Club Has Set the Millionaire
Colony Quaking For
Fear of Exposure.
BY United Press Wire.

Hot Springs Va, Sept. 29.-There
is fear and duaking in the colony of
millionaire sojourners at this fash
ionablc resort today as a resule of n
police raid on the exclusive Wood
land club" The raid was n quiet af-
fair, the alleged proprietor, Thomas
O'Bricn being the only person ar
rested. Although the arrest took
place on Tuesday night, the incident
did not become public until last night.
The Woodland club seems to have
been nothing more than a gambling
house where rich guests of the local
hotels separated from their coin. AS
in the case of the club raided at
Narragansett Pier recently, the play
was not confined to men, many wom-
en- having been among the patrons.
Today subpoena servers are gum
shoed on the trail of some of the
fashionable. men and women, who
are reported to have played at the
club. The authorities are especially
anxious to get the testimony of Ros-
well Colt, young son OF .de president
of the rubber trust and DTotherin-
law of Ethel Barrymore, the actress.

GREATEST POWER
IN HANDS OF WOMEN

greatest power i'm the world is in their
hands They are custodians of the
future the wardens of the human
race. Has the Being to whom has
been conhded the greatest human mis-
sion the time to waste In buying dress
es for lap dogs, or wearing those big,
eXtravagant hats and those strange
fashionable gowns?"
1t was Cardinal Logue, the primate
of all Ireland. who made this inter-
esting observation yesterday on the
tendencies of modern womanhood.
"I don't like TO see women law
yers," he continued. "They get such
rough handling in the law courts That

is unfit for politics.; 1t is the politics
that is unfit for women. The grandest
profession in the world for women Is
caring for home and children. Wo-
men In measure are responsible FOR
extravagant living. Men all over the
world make the money and the wo-
men spend It,"

GOVERNOR IS A
JUDGE OF STOCK
Visits the Barns and Dis
cusses Points.
PICKS THE WINNING HORSE
Greets Hundreds on the
Playground.
Wednesdays Crowd Was the Largest
Ever Seen on n wednesday of The
Fair--Govcrnors Coming Not Ad-
ycrtiscd.

Following his address at the Ma
rion fair, Wednesday. Governor JUDI
son Harmon left the grandstand and
paid a visit to all the departments OF
the fair. He was a very Interested
visitor to the stock barns and when
there discussed freely the points Of
some of the finest animals on exhibit
ton. He shook the hand of the man
who had been grooming the cattleand
mingled freely with all classes, feel
ing perfectly at home with each.
During the afternoon he was intro
duced to hundreds Of the fair visitors
and other hundreds came up and made
themselves known without the for
mallty of an Introduction. Later in
the evening he crossed the race track
and spent some time with the horse
men, and displayed great interest in
the speed events. FINALLY he took
his stand along the fence below the
grandstand and hanging onto the pal
ings gave his opinion of the manner In
which the different horses showed up
in the scoring and racing. From his
remarks II was clearly seen that he
knew the points about horse. for
he picked the winner in one large
field.
Just before 4 o'clock he was taken
to the depot in J. T. Prendergasts
touring car where he boarded the
Hooking Valley train for Fostoria.
Governor Harmon's visit to the Ma.
rion fair served to bring out the larg-
est crowd ever seen upon the grounds
on "A Wednesday and while here, al
though no mention whatever was
made of politics, he made many
friends.
Considerable comment has been
caused because the coming of the
governor was not more thoroughly ad-
vertised. 1t has been impossible TO
gain any information from the fair
management as to whether or not the
governor was coming and at what
hour he would speak. The hour for
the address was not given out until
noon on Tuesday and all of the in
formation which has been secured
by the Mirror and given publication
was secured from sources other than
the management OF the fair. The gem
eral feeling Is that If the fair manage
ment wished to use Governor Harmon
as one of the attractions for the fair
II certainly should have advertised
his coming and given the people an
10 hear and see him.

New York, Sept. ga group of
ST. Louis capitalists have invaded New
Yory City with brand new idea.
They have put up two hundred foot
tower at Broadway and Forty-Second
street the center of New Yorks night
life, exclusively for electric advertise
ing signs. 1t is the only thing Of the
kind ever seen hereabouts.
Some of the dignified citizens who
have decided opinions on "high art"
are inclined to be peevish about the
Heidelberg Tower, as 1t Is called.
They say 1t is not pretty and ought
to be removed. But it's too late now;
the building department gave the
necessary permits, and the work is
practically done.
The queer structure rises from the
top of six story building on a mil
lion dollar plot of ground. The walls
are unbroken by windows-they are
simply blank surfaces. Only fire.
proof materials have been used. The
frame is steel. and the walls are of
the same kind of hollow terra Gotta
blocks used for most Manhatten's sky
scrapers.
These blocks passed through n
a temperature of 1000 degrees Fah-
renheit in process of manufacture,
and were also subjected to elaorate
strength tests. The walls had to be
absolutely unburnable, because the
wires running about them will carry
thousands Of volts of electricity.
Already the canny Westerners have
lease dthe tower space to an adver-
tising contractor for 100000 a year.
And the contractor is to get $4,000
n year from one sign that is now in
place. SO everybody concerned seems
to be well pleased--except the citiz-
ems with opinion of art.
