chiIdren,s Home Society Appeal

The New Jersey Children's Home So
ciety has several charges under its care,
and is seeking homes, either temporary
or permanent, for these helpless children,
ranging in age from infants to fifteen
years. The work of the society is most
c~ommendable, rescuing, as it does, the
little waits and caring for them until such
time as a suitable home can be found.
Complete information can be had con-
corning the society and it's work, by ad-
dressing G. V. Williams, Superintendent,

Local Option to be Discussed

The local OpllOn bills having been i'll
troduced the an~ii-SaloOn Leagues are
pushing their cause in all parts of the
Stale. MI. Monroe, the leagues repre-
sentative at Trenton, said that Cover
nor Glenn, who is already well known
in the State, and Judge Covington, who
f framed the prohibition law of Georgia,
and helped put it through the Legisla-
ture, and other prominent men OF the
country had been engaged to stump the
State. He said that a great concerted
discussion of the bill would be taken up
on the 10th of Lhe month by the pastors
of the State, and inside Of four days
after making the announcement, desig-
mating the twentieth as the day, the
league office receil ed word direct from
several hundred pastors that they "ould
urge the bill, and that more replies
were pouring in all the while"
Said he: ''The people of New Jersey
are becoming tired OF being classed by
their legislation with Nevada, that
licenses gambling, prize-fighting, as
well DIS denying the people redress on
the liquor traffic. Every State in the
Union that has not prohibited the sale
of liquor entirely has granted the people
the right III local communities to do SO
with the exception of the State of Ne
vada, Pennsylvania and New jersey
and even Pennsylvania allows the people
TO select judges, who III urn have the
licensing power, and she has through
this method gotten rid of licenses in
three counties. New Jersey is denied
wen this opportunity.
while New Jersey people have been
on their knees begging the Legislature
to enfranchise them, the people of South
Carolina. Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, Del
aware, Oregon and Washington have
secured their local option bills, and
most of them have thus rid their States
of more than half the saloons. During
the same time Georgia, North Carolina,
Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee and
Oklahoma have driven the last saloon
from their states, and tie people of
New Jersey are becoming sick and dis
gusted with tile idea that tier majority
vote is eiectin3 men to the Legislature
who, when they arrive at Trenton, deny
to their constituents The right 10 decide
this question, so vital to their interests,
by their majority vote"
Mr.. Monroe predicted that the hear
ing this year, which was expected TO be
a Ioint hearing OF both houses, would
Le a iecord-breaker, as it was planned
to run special trains from both sides OF
State, and tile interest was tWO-fOld as
great as two years ago when tie Assem-
bly, room, the largest IN the State House,
could not begin to hold the crowds,
there being about as many in the corri-
doris as there were in the Assembly
Chamber. And he predicted that tile
spirit o. the people was SUCH that il they

ment. there was in the approaching

PIERRE, S. D., April 1.-The Missouri
river congress closed today after the adop-
tion of resolutions, endorsing the general
improvement of the waterways OF the coun-
try, urging the states to assist in the work
and recommending liberal national appro-
priatons for the Missouri river.
The principal feature of the afternoon
session was a showing OF what can be done
in the way of briquetting the Ignite coal

a marketable product all the year round
and thus make Missouri river traffic com,
merc'ally successful.

LONDON, April 1.-The official opposi-

Edwin Mordaunt told a story at the

The story Of the redemption of Stephen

but partly told in words. Mr. Mordaunt
tod It. True to the part that the author
has given him the actor keeps Stephen
Client simply interesting, not in any sense
hero, but a man. The admiration that
he draws Is for being a man.
The play in itself is striking. The plot
Involves a marriage without lovemaking
and without love. Just passion on one side
and fear on the other. Then follows the
bitter struggle OF the heart Of the cave
man that stephan Client wears against the
Puritanic conceptions that a background
OF centuries OF racial development have
put into Ruth Jordan. the woman he bore
away 10 be his mate. The struggle ends
in her becoming his wife.
In the successful Interpretation of this
remarkable psychological experiment a
large share Of effort and art falls to the
part of Mabel Brownell as Ruth Jordan.
she must be first the symbolism Of the
force that works the rebirth OF her saw
age husband, and. secondly. woman. The
fusing OF the two becomes a euriously
fretted human fabric. Miss Brownel Is
real.
The setting OF the play is resplendent
with color as strong as the emotions with
which It is concerned. The strokes on the
canvas are bold. The picture can not be
painted by an uncertain hand. Fitting II
is that out In the tumbled, rugged beauty

suffering OF the tortured heart OF Ruth
