"Well sir" replied the offender,

THE MINOR CHORD.

His song was not a song to thrill,
HIS voice was not voice to sway:
He was a humble bard, but still
He sang in such an earnest way.
The singer with the lofty air
Whose voice in splendid accents rang
Looked with contempt upon him there
And scorned the simple song he sang.
When they had passed. the people still
Recalled the humble singers lay;
His song was not a song to thrill
He'd sung in such an earnest way.

CHRISTIAN ENOEAVORERS PLAN A CAMPAIGN FOR PASSAGE OF
 AkTl-PRlZE FIGHT LAWS
AFTER VAUDEVILLE TOUR
Movement Started to Prevent Jack Johneon's Appearance on Stage Throughout Country-Missouri
 Town Puts on Ban.

Boston. July S.-Elated by the rapid spread of the opposition to the nov ing pictures of the Jeffries-J Johnson prize fight, the leaders of the move ment against pugilism began the lay. ing of plans for national campaign for the enactment and enforcement of anti-priSe fight laws in every state of the Union.
 Since the United Society of Chris tan Endeavor, under the direction of its general secretary, William Shaw sent out from this city an appeal against the fight films 29 cities have officially put the pictures under the ban, and six states have taken or prepared to take action to bar the fight pictures
 At the same time the fight on the pictures Is being waged from coast to coast, there has been started a strong movement against the appearance of Jack Johnson. the only negro world s heavyweight champion ever seen on the vaudeville stage. Ministers want him barred in one city-Washington D. C.-and others, led by Atlanta, have said through their officials We don't want him here
 The campaign has failed, to all practical purposes, however, in some of the largest cities of the country Renewed efforts to bring about the prohibition of the exhibition resulted il the information there is little pros pect of success for the movement in SC, eral cities, besides the larger ones that first refused to bar the fight pie lures. Besides New York, Philadel- phia and Chicago, the pictures will have field in many cities.
 Owners to Fight

ENGLAND FEARS SECRET TREATY BEHIND REGENT CONVENTION
 OF EASTERN Po1HaRs.
UNITED STATES INVOLVED
Fact Would Affect American Expotere-May Mean
 Triple Alliance.

London, July 8.-Dpsomats oonver- sant with the situation in the far East see behind the convention between Russia and Japan, announced at St. Petersburg, a new alignment which threatens the existence of the open door.
 It is believed there is secret treaty by which the countries that a few years ago were at war, pledge themselves to dominate the East This explanation is current and ac- cepted in semi-ofricial circles.
 The subject is one of great alarm to the British foreign office. The i'm pression grows here daily that Japan will never sign another treaty with England of the same nature as that now existing. There will also be marked effect on the negotiations be- tween Japan and America over the new treaty
 The most immediate effect of the new alignment probably will be felt in the relations between Great Britain and Japan. The growing unpopularity of the British-JapaneSe alliance. not only among Englishmen in the far East but at home as we'll can but be increased by the agreement between Tokio and St. Petersburg. which Is regarded as nothing short of com pact for complete domination of the tremendous markets of China and Manchuria.
 The long expected formal annexa- tion of Korea by Japan is now regard ed as matter of short time The lief here Is that the conditions which have been in gestation since the peace of Portsmouth will soon be- come known. startling Europe and America.
 The negotiations between St. Pc tersburg and Tokio, which are under stood to have been ready for comple ton when Prince Ito went to Harbin and was killed by Korean. are of especial significance In view of the fact that Japan Is about to renew her treaty with the leading powers. Lon don is watching the situation eau uously, particularly with reference 10 the negotiations for an immigration treaty between the United States and Japan. which subject Is of extreme i'm portahce to Great Britain because of the opposition to Japanese immtgra- tlon in Brieish Columbia and Austra- lia.
 Neither the United States nor Eng land wishes to take the initiative in the matter, but as the American treaty does not expire till year after the expiration of that with Great Brit am, the advantage seems to hs with Washington.
 One outcome of the JapaneseRus- san alliance may be triple alliance between England. the United States and Germany.
