Jacob Riis as quoted in The Survey:
We dig and toll in the sweat Of our
brows, and when we see the tares
springing up in the fields we sowed
we hear men sometimes speak of the
unfit. But who are the unfit? The
slouching tramp, who, a spent man at
thirty, having been damned into the
industrial treadmill at seven, will
work no more, or the man who grew
rich from childs labor? The woman
without hope, Of no castor the em-
ployer who underpaid her till she had
to chose the street to live?
Who are the unfit? The raw Irish
man who gets drunk on his holiday,
and yet brings to the treasury In Wall
street his savings Of a lifetime, when
the black panic is sweeping over the
land, saying simply: I'VE saved it all
up in the forty years we have been
here, for our old age, mother and Il;
but last night she read out of the
paper to me that the country was in
trouble and needed money, and so ]
brought 1t here."-He, or the man who
coldly CANDLES to pile up his wealth

living harder for us all? The scrub.
woman who, with empty hands and
emptier heart gives her babe to the
potter's field and then scrapes and
saves through the year, working her
fingers to the bone for the pittance
that shall ransom her child from the

yet not once but three times in the

The fire started In the roof Of the one

was all ablaze and for a few minutes
the situation looked very serious for
the main building, which is used as

called on the scene, and with few
well applied hose streams the flames
We're under subsection and the fire well

Fortunately there was no breeze so
that the smoke was not famed to any
great extent into the interior of the
main or private dining rooms. and but
little into the saloon next door. Re

FICTION THAT BECAME FACT.
The Lightly Uttered PrOphesies of
NoveIists Often Came True.

ShAGh SGVAG W.
st. Louis Republic: When Kip1lng
wrote with the Night Mail. it was
hailed as a remarkable creation OF the
fancy, but his Iindest critics never
suggested that he had laid the ground
plan for the aerial beacons, towers,
signboards and light station for the
airships of the future
Jules Verne wrote seventy novels
type and dealt with mechanical
things. They were always looked upon
as the dreams of dreamer.
In one Of them he told the world
just what a successful submarine
would be like and described its posi-
bilities. Thousands Of people read
Twenty Thousand eagues Under the
Sea and Mysterious Island, in
which he detailed the adventure Of
Capt. Memo and his wonderful sub
marine, the Nautilus.
There is something uncanny in the
foreshadowing of these things by
writer's of fiction who have visioned
them within the last century They
were prophesies when written. Pure
fiction was all that they were in
tended to be, but their marvels have
since been realized. So fast does the
world move that the widest dreams
of the author of tomorrow become the
realities of tomorrow.
A generation ago Lord Lytton wrote
visionary novel which he called The
Coming Race. In it he described a
people as perfect as it is possible for
humanity to be. They had left all
traces of early barbarism and had per-
fected themselves in the mechanical
arts. Strangely enough he foreshad-
owed the equal rights for women
movement that has sprung up since
his time. In The Coming Race the
women were the larger and the
brainier of the two sexes.
In this work he detailed the use
and power Of remarkable force that
seemed prophetic Of radium. This ire
mendous force burned and scared and
glowed with a ghasty glare like that
of the strange element discovered by
the CURES of Paris few years ago.
With it the folk of The Coming Race
slew the wild beasts that still prowled
on the outskirts Of their artificially
lighted domain. Like radium, the
force never lessened, no matter how
often it was used.

Chicago, Aug 25.-An impression
prevails in certain quarters in the

well satisfied with their condition in

have sold large quantity of Septem-

said to have taken the greater part Of
it back on the cents break in the
past week without attracting any at

Death Of Helen Slater.

Just as we went to press last week
We learned OF the death of Helen
Slater, the little seven-year-old daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Slater, of
East Boyer township.
Helen Cleghorn Slater was born
August IS, 1904, and died Sept. 4, 1911.
Funeral services were held from the
home in East Boyer township on Tues
day, September 5th, Rev. J. Jas. De-
Pree officiating, interment taking place
in Oakland cemetery in Denison.
The death of this little girl came as
a great shock to the many friends
and neighbors. Helen had been, ap-
parently, quite well, but a few months
previous to her death was taken seri-
ously ill with stomach trouble and it
was only by the best medical aid that
her life was prolonged. She was a
sweet and lovable child and we ex-
tend our heartfelt sympathy to the be-
reaved ones who will SO keenly feel
the loss of their little one.

HUSTLED OUT OF TOWN.
OisreputabIe Couple Driven From
Oenison Monday After Spend
inq Sunday in Jail.

Denison had the misfortune to have
disreputable couple, claiming
to be man and wife, in town Saturday
night A number of the young men
in town, whose names we would dis
like to mention, were mixed up in the
affair in way not creditable to them.
Some arrests were made and the visit
ing man and woman were held until
Monday morning, when they were con-
victed and released upon payment of
a nominal fine. 1t is said they were
taken to the station and hustled out
of town for the good of the city. 1t is
unfortunate that the vigilance of the
police force of the city is not ade-
Quate to deal with characters of this
kind in time to prevent publicity such
as resulted on Saturday night. 1t may
be, however, that there was nothing
to call the attention of the police Of
ficers to the viciousness of these char
acters until after they had been in the
city for some time.

Athletic at High School.

The high school students have been
busy this week organizing athletic
clubs in addition to their regular
work. The boys have two foot ball
teams playing each evening and there
is every prospect for splendid team
this year. Professor Stone, who for
merly played with Carlton college
and coached the North Platte team, is
acting as coach for the high school
boys this fall. Games have already
been scheduled with Boone, Logan,
Ida Grove and several other teams.
The girls have organized an athletic
club with large membership. Tennis.
walking, basket ball and volley ball
clubs have also been organized and
great interest is being taken in them
all. No doubt the girls will play a
number OF interesting games this sea-
son, and we sincerely hope that the
people OF Denison Will patronize them
to such an extent that as much inter.
est will be manifested at the close of
the season as at present.
