tired woman companion, who per-
formed the feat the other afternoon
and carried away art works, rugs and
bric-a-brac valued at $4,000 from the
mansion of William II. Davidow on

lures of the robbery is that it is not

the thieves coming from her house,
but took them for visitors who had
come to call and leave their cards.
But they did not leave their cards.

FOR APPLE CULTURE.
Meeting In Interest of Apple Growers,
Several Prominent Speakers VIII Be
Present


Because of the interest manifested
in the meeting to be held in the inter-
est of apple culture in this vicinity
at Kellogg Hubbard library. on, Fri
day, November 18th under the auspices
of the Board of Trade it has been
deemed advisable to hold two sessions,
forenoon at 10 and afternoon at 100
o'clock, thus giving people from out
of town an opportunity to hear the
entire program.
1t has been decided to conduct an
exhibit a limited amount of space,
some of which has already been en-
gagged, being available and the Board
of Trade extends an invitation to the
apple growers in the various towns to
exhibit samples of fruit grown by
them. The meetings are arranged as
much in the interest of the consumer
as the producer and large attend
ance of both is expected, so the re-
suits should be very satisfactory.
AS the program is about ready for
publication the board will appreciate
notice at once as to who will attend
and report for the various towns on
present condition of the orchards, and
what is being done to improve them.

How One Woman Kept to the Point.

Woman has often been taxed with
incapacity for concerted and contin-
uous thought. Now and then some
thing occurs to disclose the utter folly
and falsity of such charge.
The other day two young people in
buggy We're approaching the ro-
mantle crisis of their lives. An au-
tomobile was also approaching them
from behind. At the very instant
when the young man was putting the
question the automobile struck the
buggy and tossed its absorbed occu-
pants to one side of the road. He"
was unconscious and she" was badly
dazed. But she refused TO be dis
tracted from the main theme by the
intrusion of any minor issue. Keep
ing the line of communication open,
she grasped for her oblivious lovers
hand and ecstatically murmured: ooh
Billy dear, yes.'
When woman is vitality interested
she may be trusted not to lose her
grip.

Berlin Bourse Not Alarmed

Berlin, June 6.-The Berlin bourse is
strongly disposed to view the situation in
Wall street calmly and to pick out the
most favorable features. Operators re-
gard the violent break in prices as largely
artificial and designed to influence Presi-
dent Taft. 1t is also expected that the
conference which President Taft will have
with the railroad presidents tomorrow is
likely to have its weight. German spec
ulators still regard the present movement
as favorable for buying American stocks
for these reasons, and 1t is said large or
ders have been cabled to New York dur
ing the last few days. These resulted In
an unusually heavy demand on Saturday

MISS CLISBY's READING
TO BROWNING STUDENTS

The members of the Round Table were
fortunate indeed in having the privilege
of hearing Miss Annie Clisby read on Sat-
urday afternoon at the residence of Mrs,
Mark Lewis. 1t was the second open
Der was allowed to invite a friend, 1t was
quite a representative gathering of club
women.
Miss Clisby has just returned from a
two years study at the Powers School OF
Expression in Boston.
Before beginning her wonderful inter-
probation of Saul-one of the master
pieces of-a master mind-Miss Cllsby gave
an analysis of the poem. The portion of
Scripture which Is the germ of the poem
is found in the First Book of Samuel.
xvi, 1923: David has been sent for to
chase away the evil spirit which had cast
its spell over King Saul. David, on re-
ceiving the message, hastens to the
kings presence. He reaches the kings
tent tunes his harp and begins the songs
by means of which he hopes to drive
away the madness of the king
There are three distinct songs in the
poem, said Miss Clisby: First. the songs
of the brute creation, the sheep song etc.;
second, the song in which are pictured the
epochs of human life, ca the help tune
of the reapers, (b) the funeral song. (c)
the marriage chant, (d) the war march,
(e) the religious chorus. Third. the song
of human aspiration, which ends with
prophecy that the Goldman will throw
open to Saul the gates of new life.
Throughout the reading of this poem
which Prof. Hiram Corson Of Yale char
acterizes as perfect in all that is In
cluded in the idea of expression Miss
Clisby's imagery was so fine that her
hearers felt that they themselves could
see the scenes she represented, and her
enunciation was SO perfect that they
could hear her every word.
AS an offset to this rather heavy bit of
reading, Miss Clisby gave two other Sc
lections, which were delightful: THE
Guardian OF the Acolade," by o. Henry,
and "Brer Rabbits Astonishing Prank"
an Uncle Remus story.
At the conclusion of the programme
refreshing ice was served.
