INFLUENCE OF A SONG.
San Francisco Police Court
Greatly Affected by 1.-The

Youths Companion: Thirty
men, red eyed and disheveled.
lined up before a judge of the
San Francisco police court. It
was the regular morning COM
pany of "drunks and disorder
lies" Some were old and hard
ened, others hung their heads
in shame. Just as the momen-
tary disorder attending the
bringing in of the prisoners
quieted down, a strange thing
happened. A strong, clear
voice from below began singing
Last night as | lay a-sleeping
There came'a dream so fair
Last night! It had been for
them as a nightmare or a drunk
en- stupor. The song was a
contrast to the horrible fact
that no one could fail of a sud
den shock at the thought the
song suggested.
Istood in old Jerusalem,
Beside the temple there
the song went on. The Judge
had paused. He made a quiet
inquiry. A former member of
a famous opera company, known
all over the country, was
waiting trial for forgery. II
was he who was singing in his
cell.
Meantime the song went on,
and every man in the line
showed emotion. One or two
dropped on their knees; one
boy, at the end of the line, latter
a desperate effort at self con-
troll, leaned against the wall,
buried his face against his fold

ed arms, and sobbed, ooh, mo t.
her, mother"
The sobs, cutting to the very
heart the men who heard.
and the song, still yelling its
way through the courtroom,
blended in the hush.
At length one man protested.
"Judge," said he, "have we got
to submit to this? We're here
to take our punishment, but
this" He, too, began to sob.
1t was impossible to proceed
with the business of the court,
yet the judge gave no orders to
stop the song. The police SER
geant, after an effort to keep
the men in line, stepped back
ana waited with the rest. The
song moved on to its climex.
Jerusalem, Jerusalem! Sing for
the night is Ger!
Hosanna in the highest! hosan-
ma for evermore!
In an ecstasy of melody the
last words rang out, and then
there was silence. The Judge
looked into the faces of the
men before him. There was
not one who was not touched
by the song; not one in whom
some better impulse was not
stirred. He did not call the
cases singly-a kind word of
advice, and he dismissed them
all. No man was fined or sent
enced to the workhouse that
morning. The song had done
more good than punishment
could have accomplished.

QU|NT
WILL BEGIN WORK
MONDAY MORNING
In Preparation for Hard
Season, Blue and Gray
Athletes Start Early.

Monday morning in the Ryan gym
nasium the first practice of the
Georgetown basketball team will be
held. Never before have candidates
been called out so early in tho sea-
son, as is the case this year, but
Captain Martin and Coach Jim Colli-
flower deem 1t advisable. in view of
the hard schedule, which Manager
Fortune is arranging for the Blue and
Gray quint for the coming winter.
With arrangements already made
for games with Virginia, North Caro-
lima. and the Navy. and negotiations
well under way for contests with
Columbia, Fordham. West Point, and
other large Northern schools. the Hill
Top management believes that the
process OF conditioning the men
should begin now, for a strong team
must be developed II the Blue and
Gray is to make a creditable showing
in face of such a schedule.
The news that Monarch, who played
such a sensational game at guard last
year, would be unable to come out
for the team, hastened, to some eE-
tent. the call for candidates, as his
absence will necessitate the filing of
position about which Collifower
felt he had no cause to worry;
1t Is probale that Barricello, Wal
dron, and Heiskell will have to fight
1t out for Monarch's old Job, as all of
them subbed in the guard positions last
winter, and showed up equally we'll.
Lamerton, the Oil City boy. who
was given a chance to show his abil-
ity in the latter part of the season.
must also be given some considera-
tion, as he gave promise of great
things in his play, and II would not
be surprising to see him, with the ex-
perience acquired in 1911, win q berth
on the Hilltoppers' quint.

novelty race added for good meas

TO GET RID OF =
RHEUMATISM

If we suffer with Rheumatism and
desire to get rid of it we must make
up our minds to subject our systems
to the proper course Of treatment fo1
q while. Tie only wsy to cure
oneself of Rheumatism is to remove
the cause-expel .hI irritating uric
acid from the blood; every other
method of treatment has proved q
failure. S. c. S. cures Rheumatism
because it is the greatest of all blood
purifiers. This medicine goes down
into the circulation and expels every
particle of the sour, inflammatory
uric acid which is the ono great
cause of the disease. The cure can
be greatly hastened by a little care
and self denial by the patient. In
the first place do not let anything
interfere to prevent your taking
S. S. S. regularly and according to
directions; be guarded in your eat
ing, because an attack of indigestion
will always aggravat the symptoms
OF Rheumatism. Do not expose
yourself to damp and inclement
weather any more than is isnecessary.
When S. S. S. has had tim to rid the
blood of the uric acid and strengthen
the system, then these little restric-
tions can be left off. This simple
course has cured many thousands of
cases OF Rheumatism. Book on
Rheumatism and any medical adv e
free. S. S. S. is sold at drug stores.
