The experiment Of the suffrage leader

frigerating plant which accommodates

popularity yesterday. The saddles OF

were disposed of before lunch, the buy
ers bearing away their purchases in au'
tomobiles.
Eggs, Too, at Cut Prices.
The forty dozen eggs. which went al
SO cents a dozen when the best known
grocers were selling the same guaranteed
variety for A cents, were parceled out to
persons in all walks of life.
Mrs. Belmont also makes a speciality OF
French olive oil at the same attractive
reduction. She sells the finest cocoa fol-
30 cents, when the same tin cannot be
bought for less than 50 cents elsewhere
Coffee and tea are among the staples she
dispenses. The sale of meat thus far
has been limited to joints ordered. that
there may be no overstocking.
Mrs. Belmont's idea in giving the ad-
vantage of the low figures to any who
choose to go to the headquarters is to
bring in the men and women who might
not otherwise be interested.
The lunchrooms were damned yester-
day, and eighty-seven men were among
the diners.

WOULD ERECT BARRIER
TO PROTECT ESK|MOS
Explorer Says Civilization
Should Not Trespass Upon
Newly Discovered Tribe.

NEW YORK, October 2.-Charles We'll
lington Furlong, F. R. G. S., American
artist. writer and explorer. approves of
the efforts of Vilhjalmur Stefansson, the
arctic explorer, to prevent the carrying
Of civilization, including religion. to the
blond tribe Of Eskimos he recently dis
covered in the Coronation gulf region
of Canada. Mr.. Furlong was the first
American to cross the heart of TERRA
del Fuego. and has explored the tropical
forests of Dutch Guiana alone with
natives. and also journeyed to North
Africa He says the Yahgan and Ona
Indian tribes of the extremity of South
America are the Eskimos of the south.
and are in the same dangers from
civilization as are their brothers in the
north: Some time ago he asked the
governments Of Chile and Argentina to
issue general quarantine to cut off
these tribes from the influx of white
people. which Stefansson proposes to do
in Canada.
Prof. Furlong, who is on the STAFF Of
lecturers in Clark University, saws it
is no wonder the natives of all coun-
tries perish under too much civilization
when civilized peoples themselves often
break down or succumb to it's evil eff
fects. The only hope of future health
and happiness for the overworked men
of the big cities, he believes, is to get
back to the country and the simple life
as often and as long as possible be-
tween seasons.
Stefansson is right" said Mr.. Fur
long. PERSONALLY 1 know missionaries in
many cases have done good among the
natives of all countries, but the success
has been with the well trained. educated
men who have been able to adapt them
selves to conditions and apply their
knowledge to the ways of the people thew
wanted to help. But the civilization that
usually follows the missionary is the evil
that leads to the extinction Of the native.
The best results were those obtained by
the white fathers in North Africa. who
adapted their ideas and methods to the
lives and conditions of the Berbers and
did not attempt to force an artificial
mode of life upon them.
Leads to Extinction.
Conditions that follow what we call
civilization, which, summed up, spells
cupidity and ignorance, mean extinction
of any primitive people. You hear a
lot Of talk of civilization for a primitive
people. but, to use slang expression,
such civilization rarely gets down to
brass tacks SO far as improving conditions
Is concerned. In most cases the natives
have a better code of morals than can
be given them. Stefansson not only hits
the point in his objections to the influ-
ence Of civilization generally, but points
out one particular phase which is ia
miliar to my own experience with primi-
tive peoples, the carrying Of diseases to
them, of which measles was the most
disastrous
Furthermore. from my observation,
missionary is outweighed by the evil in
luences of the traders who first reach
the natives with their brand of civiliza-
ton. The native mus in time adopt
some of the forms of living Of the white
man he comes in contact with"

Washington, d. C. June 1.-THE
gathering of delegates at Chicago
next Tuesday forms the fifteenth ma.
tional convention held by the Repub-
lican party since its birth in Pitts
Durgh more than half a century ago.
The first convention was In Phila-
lelphia in 1856, and Edward D. Nor
gan called 1t to order on June IT.
Robert Emmett of New York was
temporary chairman and Henry s.
Lane OF Pennsylvania permanent
chairman, with David Wilmot as head
OF the committee on resolutions. The
platform declared against the extern
sion of slavery into new States and
Territories, demanded the admission
Of Kansas, and advocated the build
ing of the Union Pacific railroad. The
candidates nominated were John C.
Fremont--he defeating John Mclean
OF Ohio on first ballot-and William
Il. Dayton of New York. The ticket
was beaten by the Democratic ticket
nominated at st. Louis and headed by
Buchanan.
The second, but in point of import
ance really the first, convention of the
party was held in Chicago, assembling
June 10, 1860. The platform declared
Tor the preservation of the Union,
denounced the extension OF slavery,
and advocated tariff laws (which
would encourage the development of
the industrial interests of the coun-
try Abraham Lincoln was nomina-
tide for President on the third ballot
and Hannibal Hamlin of Maine was
nominated for Vice-President on the
second ballot. This ticket was sue
eessful in the fall, easily beating the
divided Democracy.
The third Republican convention
met in Baltimore on June 7, 1864 The
platform declared for the carrying
ON Of the war, advocated a constitu-
tional amendment for prohibiting slav-
cry anywhere in the Union, returned
thanks to the Federal soldiers and
sailors, and Endorsed the emancipa-
zion. Abraham Lincoln was renomin-
Ated, receiving all the votes except
those of Missouri, which were cast
for Gen. Grant Andrew Johnson of
Tennessee was named for Vice Presi-
dent This ticket was successful at
the polls.
The record of Republican national
convention and candidate held since
she close of the civil war is as follows:
Chicago May 20, 1S68-Ulysses s.

succeeded Garfield, lived to realize the
full meeting of political ingratitude.
Harrison, although renominated at
Minneapolis, was defeated The de-
feat of Grant in the convention which
met in Chicago in 1880 was the oc-
casion of bitter feud in the Repub-
lican party, and incidentally led to
the defeat of the party four years
later. Mr.. Roosevelt was nominated
in Chicago in 1904 and Mr.. Taft in
1908. These two, of the seven stand
ard bearers named by the Republican
party in Chicago convention, are the

Birds eliminate bugs and weevils and

Nearly every species Of bird feeds

up and ate f65 cut worms. Another
robin was fed 81 green caterpillars In
less than six hours and It's appetite was

Catbirds and bluebirds are equally
