English Musicians

London has long been noted for it's large musical element. and ever since Handel's day the great composers have been appreciated nowhere more thor oughly than in England,'' said a man.
 But with the exception of organists, England has produced few high class native musicians.
 "It Is only recently that England has begun to rise in the musical world and send out virtuosos and musical works in large form. Elgar and Stanford are master composers and will rank with the famous moderns on the continent. Each of these Englishmen is original, broad and compelling. And among con- cert players we find two violinists who are having great success this year John Dunn and Arturo Tibaldl The last named is Arthur Larking in private life. His father was Colonel Larking, an equerry to King Edward, and his mother was Lady Adela Larking, lady-in- waiting to her royal highness, the Duchess of Connaught. The late Duke of Edinburg. a son of Queen Victoria, played the violin, and appeared occasionally in pub lie
 Maud Powell told me that she and the Duke of Edinburg once exchanged violin playing courtesies. She played for him and he played for her. This occurred at Kennsington, where Miss Powell, then a girl in her teens, had been command ed, along with Joachim and other mu- sical celebrities, to play before the royal e, h royal highness, the duke, played. She replied oh. like a duke-very badl Well. that was doubtless true of the Duke of Edinburg, but this young scion of mo- bility, who comes under the name of Tibaldi, is from all accounts, a real art ist. He is said to be solid, musicianly player and a gentleman of singularly charming personality"
 Henry Clews, in his Saturday cir cular on cotton conditions, says, in part;
 Some of the market analysts, who base their convictions of ultimate price trend on fundamental as well as gen in their deductions by any speculative commitments, are DeBlnHlnS to express more openly the belief that the long run of prices will be toward a lower level. The active traders. however, whose day to day operations are large enough in themselves to influence fiuc- tuations within certain Hints, are talk ing no fixed position, but are governed | in making their market transactions | by hourly developments. and the un- folding events of each day This &C., counts not only for their many changes | from the bull to the bear side, and vice versa, but also for the wide swings that have been witnessed in options during the week. For the immediate future these daily operations are like | ly to be continued which ought to re- suit in a market offering good oppor- | tunities for nimble operator to make many profitable trades, if he will but wait for the weak spots on which to buy, taking advantage of the strong spots to sell, as the present level is still high, especially if the increased crop estimates should prove true"

Wrinkles

wrinkles and Their Cause is the heading on
beauty hint" that is going the rounds of the news
papers.
sWrnkles are caused by tired muscles, - says the
writer They are more easily prevented than
cured. To remain wrinkleless woman must pass
placid existence, free from emotion
This advice is directed to girls and young women.
1t is to be hoped that will accept it for it offers
a mighty poor bargain.
Suppose a girl should determine to remain
"wrinkleless," what price must she pays
As daughter she must not share the cares and
burdens of the household with her mother-because
she would tire her muscles.
She must not let her heart clutch with agony
OF love and fear as her tiny brother lies stricken
with some baby disease.
She must not worry her fathers failing
strength permit herself to feel grief at his bier.
She must not let her heart open out in ecstatc re-
Spouse to the lovers first wooing
AS bride she must not quicker her pretty brows
over the problem of placing the furniture and hang
ing the pictures-for pretty FUCKERS are the seed of
wrinkles.
As mother-oh, no. she must never be mother
if she would live the placid existence recommended
AS an aunt she must not exert herself for the chill
dren about her knees.
AS an old woman she must not listen to the joys
and sorrows OF the young worry her mind in
giving them comfort, aid, advice and sympathy.
No, indeed! Starting from her earliest girlho.d
she must be placid. That is, she must shun shock
OF great joys and avoid her share of the worlds sor
rows
She must live each day in and for herself alone.
Her one thought must be to keep her mind as pacid
as castor oil and her heart as cool as rutabaga.
Aud thus will wrnkleless face be achieved
And, having lived loveless, useless, aimless
friendless childless, husbandless (for the man to
whom she was wed would never have been her hus-
band), wrnkleless fe she would be ready to be laid
away, unmourned and unmissed
And for the friends of the rest of the family filed
by the best they could say would be s'How calm she
looks"
Girls, it you are going in for the wrinkleless life
remember that your great exemplars will be the
oyster and the cabbage.

THE POCKET PET

One day when Marjorie was out
at the farm, Uncle John came in
from the woods and told her to
hold out her hands; and what do
you suppose he dropped into
them? A little baby gray squirrel.
Marjorie was delighted with it,
and carried 1t home in her coat
pocket. The squirrel seemed to
think that pocket was to he his
home. When Marjorie Vould
come home from school andzhang
her coat on the peg, the squirrel
would climb into tho pocket and
go to bed.
One Sunday, when the little
fellow felt sleepy, Marjorie's coat
wasn't there, so he got into broth
er Ben's instead. Ben wasn't in
the habit Of feeling In his pocket

No enterprise that has been
launched by the Times in the past
has exceeded the wide popularity
that the women's suffrage SYM
postum and ballot vote has at
tanned. Not only in Tacoma does
this interest gain in volume each
day, but in the suburban and
rural towns there are clubs form
ing. Some of these have been
called The Times Suffrage club.
Mrs. Mary Fuller of Alder, Wash,
writes to the Suffrage Editor to-
day, congratulating the Times and
announcing her intention of cir
culating the Times ballot through
out Alder, so that every woman
in that community may vote.
Express Your Opinion.
Whether you are in favor of the
ballot for women write your opin-
ions and send them I'm to the Suf-
frage EDITOR of the Times. To-
morrow there will be a sympos-
ium by well known Tacoma wom-
en-. One will express her opinions
of suffrage; she will tell why she
believes that women should vote
and have q hand in the admins
tration of municipal, state and ma
tional affairs. And on the other
hand, there will be an equally
firm, fair and logical exposition of
the disadvantages and the objec-
tons of woman suffrage.
1t Is a Great Question.
1t Is great question. There
are a great many things that must
be considered before woman is
given the equal political rights of
man. And the sooner this great
question is answered, the sooner
the movement will be fruitful OF
results; in one way or the other.
The women of Washington have
this opportunity of going upon
record. The ballot will be pub
lished for only a day or two long,
er. Clip it today and send in
your vote; but VOTE ONLY
ONCE. II you have already voted,
pass the ballot along to some
friend or neighbor and have her
vote. BUT VOTE EARLY.
Address communications to
SUFFRAGE EDITOR. Your name
will not be published with your
letter If you do not wish to have

"a score of years ago little
Vida Meynell met a babbling, blue

Though there was much of the

of, yet he knew there had been
just such man in the case of

The pink lady said nothing,
merely grinding a small shoepoint
into the thick Administer carpet.
Presently she asked, with head
turned away: might there have

"a wedding-so that Mr.. Lawson
might have mixed the two occur

Reynolds snapped his finrers
savagely. "OOf course-that Kid

He turned to depart. but Vida

door, blocking the way. There was
a pink in her cheeks that rfvaIed

she said. very softly:

SHOULD WOMEN WANT TO V0TE?|
tAFFTRM ATIVE.)
BY Mrs. Sofia Loebinger.
Leader of the Fig hting Suffragets.

Women must vote because mod
ern life, more complex than at
any time of human existence, de-
mands 1t. Men, too busy with
money-making scfremes, find no
timef or higher public activities,
and therefore the commonwealth
suffers.
Women must step into the
breach to assist men. Public well
fare without woman's participa-
tiop Is impossible.
Educated women have as much
conception of public affairs as
men; they are better adapted be-
cause they are more altruistic;
they have a finer sense of honor,
responsibility and intuition.
Affairs of our country are such
that woman's assistance is press
ingly needed, for men have thus
far made a failure of democracy,
which should be an ideal form of
government.
