INDIANS TODES SUBJECT
Of LECTURE BY CURTIS
Author of "The North Ameri-
can Indian" Considered Best
Authority on the Race.

| Edward 8. Curtis, who IL said to know
| the Indians even more intimately than
the red men know themselves, is to give
his picture-musical, "A Vanishing Race, !"
at the Belasco Theater the afternoons of
Tuesday, January 30, and Thursday, Feb
ruary 1. The picture-musical is said to
| be one of the most artistic as well as
| one Of the most authoritative expositions
| Of the picturesque features Of the life of
North American Indians. 1t will be seen
| in Washington under the auspicessof the
League of the Covenant and the Wash
ington branch of the Archaeological In
stitute of America. The league will use
it's share Of the proceeds t., further the
practical charities undertaken by the or
ganization.
The musical part of the entertainment
is unique in that the symphony orchestra,
which Wfll be present at both mat1neeS,
will render Indian music which had been
first captured in Indian villages by the
use Of recording monographs. After be-
ing recorded on wax cylinders a musician
has arranged 1t in such shape that an
orchestra can play it. "A Vanishing
Race will be given in every city OF
Importance in America, and the musical
portion of the entertainment is an i'm
pOrtant addition to archaeology.
Spent Life Among Indians.
Mr.. Curtis has lived among Indians
most of his life, his travels taking him
from New Mexico to British Columbia
and Alaska, and he probably knows
more facts about Indians than any
other man. His book, 1.-The North
American Indian" is considered one of
the most remarkable works Of the age,
not only for its facts and interest, but
for it's pictures. The field work and
explorations, travels, ETC., which formed
the basis of this work were conducted
under the patronage of j. Pierpont
Morgan, who now owns the painting
"a Vanishing Race" The cream of
the field work finds expression in the
picture-musical which the League Of
the Covenant and the Archaeological
Society win conduct.
An honorary committee for the two
matinees has been announced by Miss
Elizabeth Bryan. chairman of. the
League Of the Covenants committee,
and is as follows:
President Taft, Ambassador J.. ]. JUS
serand Ambassador James Bryce. o. NJ. !;

HRDMl|DERS Return
TOl|BRARY Of CONGRESS
Change Back to Original Quar-
tersf is Announced in
Circular.

The blind Of the District and the friends
OF the blind have succeeded in their ef-
fort to have their books returned to the
Library Of Congress from the District
Public Library and to have provision
again made for a reading room for them
in the gilded-dome building on Capitol
HILL .
The change is announced in q circular
just issued by George F. Bowerman. Ii
brarian of the local Public Library, in
which he says: ;.
by special arrangement with the au-
thorities Of the Library of Congress the
service for the blind is to be resumed
Immediately at the, Library Of Congress,
even though the final provision must
await action by Congress upon the ap-
preparation bills now pending. ~
1.-The room formerly used for the blind
Is being prepared: the books are being
returned there and the room will be re-
opened within q few dayS-certatnly by
Monday, January 8. Upon recommends
fin. the entertainments also are to be
resumed at the Library OF Congress,
though it Is understood that the au-
diences must be limited to the comfortable
seating capacity of the room. Notices OF
the entertainments will appear In the
Reasons for Change.
1t was upon the recommendation Of
Herbert Putnam, librarian of the Con-
gressional Library, that the books Of the
blind were transferred from the library
under his charge to the District Public
Library and reading room for the blind
established in the marble building in
Mount Vernon square. The blind read
ers, however, did not like the change.
1t was found, 1t is understood, that the
many visitors to the Congressional Libra
ry became interested in their work when
seeing them in the reading room in that
library and that this same interest was
not stimulated by reading room in the
Public Library because of the compare
lively small number Of visitors there. 1t
was also declared that the delivery sys-
tenn at the Public Library was not as
we'll equipped for the blind readers las
that at the Congressional Library. Other
objections were made from time to time.
A protest against the change, made
some months ago. resulted In further ief-
forts to accommodate the blind readers
through the service Of the Public Library;
but they were still not satisfied. And
the return of their books and the re-
establishment of their reading room al
the Congressional Library is the result.
Both Librarians Bowerman and Put
nam showed a willingness to cooperate
with the blind and their friends in giving
them the accommodations they wanted.

PRINT PAPER PRODUCTION
PASSES PREVIOUS RECORD
Shipments in November Show Larg-
est Increase Over October,
However.

Octohers record shipments of news
print paper were exceeded In November
by 7O4 tons. bringing the total shipments
up to 1l1,248 tons. as reported to the
commissioner. OF corporations by the
American Paper and Pulp Association.
While production showed a similar I'm
crease. it was considerably less than the
shipments. The result was q decrease of
1855 tons. in stocks. to Sc. $50 tons. This
shows reduction since the end OF Au-
gust Of 1896 tons. the stocks on that
date having been $3.50 tons. At the
close Of November. 1910. stocks were g.
30 tons.
The actual output per working day In
November. 1911. was 4, 10S tons, the high
est figure thus far reported for any
month Of that year, with the exception
Of June. when the daily output reached
4, 246 tons The November. returns cover
fifty companies. whereas thPse for octo-
Der cover forty-nine.
Other grades Of paper AZ I rule showed
a heavy production and . large move
ment, with a moderate increase In stocks
on hand. except wrapping paper, where
heavy shipments resulted in q decrease
Of about 1000 tons. this presumably being
partly due to the. holiday demand.

PLAN A TESTIMONIAL
FOR DICKENS FAMILY
Son of the Great Novelist May

Country.

NEW YORK, January Aside from
the shock which the friends and admirers
Of Charles Dickens and his son ex-
perienced when the sudden death Of AL
fred Tennyson Dickens. which occurred
at the Hotel Astor Tuesday, was
announced yesterday morning, the
sad news carried with it a great disap-
pointment. This disappointment was
keenly felt. especially by the men who
compose the committee in charge of, the
arrangements for the celebration Of the
birth Of Charles Dickens, planned to take
place in Carnegie Hall the evening of
February Z. Alfred Tennyson Dickens
speakers on that occasion. He was to
speak on the subject my Fathers Life

to attend. but his acceptance has not
yet been received by the committee. Ad-
dresses will be made by some Of the most
distinguished men in the field of litera-
ture. Messages will also be read from

those who have been asked to con-
tribute are Rudyard Kipling. Bernard

had scarcely been uttered before Mccain advanced on him. Fryer moved him back and told him not to come on him. Mccain pulling g pistol began shooting at Fryer, who in the meantime had secured his shot gun. After two shots had been fired at him, Fryer raised his gun and took deliber- ate aim at Mccain, but was mo- ticed to lower the gun and set it down on the ground without flr- ing appearantly reluctant to take McCain's life. Mccain again began firing and then Fry CT raised his shot gun and sent a of load of buck shot into Mo Gains stomach which resulted fatally.
 Fryer was unscratched, and in the examining trial which fol- lowed McCain's death was re- leased because of the proof show ing that the killing was justifi- able.
 Mccain, it appears, was a clever gentleman. when not un- der the Influence of whiskey, and 1t is to be regretted that this dreaded demon of drink has again. in lea than two weeks been the direct cause of the death of two of Monroe counties good citizens -the other, Wm. Carr, killed by officers at Eden.

J. H. Fryer, of Monroe, Kills
 (. T. Mccain.


 Tuesday afternoon at Monroe, Ark, between the hours of three and four o'clock. c. T. Mccain was instantly killed by a shot gun loaded with buck shot, in the hands of J. H. Fryer.
 The killing occurred in front of Kings store at that place. and was the elimination of a quarrel which had started some two or three hours before. by McCain's accusation that Mir. Fryer had been meddling in a law suit be- tween Mccain and his mother in-law, which was to have came up in the next term of court.
 The two men were thought to have settled the quarrel and no further notice was given it, when in the afternoon they happened to meet in front of Kings store and exchanged words, whereup- on Mccain pulled a pistol and be- gan firing. It seems that Fryer was unarmed at the time and Me- Cain succeeded in emptying his pistol but no shot took effect. Fryer quickly procured a shot gun close by and before Mccain could reload and fire again shot him down. N
 MT. Fry CT was given a nearing Wednesday morning in the jus. tice's court and .completely ex- honorated. The sentiment of the town is considered to.be with him, as Mccain is alleged to have started the trouble.
 Mccain was buried at that place this afternoon It 3 o'clock.
 ANOTHER VERSION.
 It appears that Mccain was drunk and quarrelsome and in Kings store accused Fryer of meddling. Fryer denied this, and noting McCain's intoxicated condition sought to avoid a diff culty with him by telling him that if he (Fryer) had done any thing to injure his feelings that he would beg his pardon and cor rect the matter in any way. This didn't stop Mccain. who picked up an axe handle and as- saulted the aged man. who after he had been backed up against the wall by Mccain in the as- sault, pulled a dull pocket knife and struck at him in defense but did no damage. Mccain was pulled off by friends and Fryer went on away. Later Fryer who was in his buggy driving through Monroe. had stopped and gotten out of it to talk to Dr. Bradley. when the Doctor observing Nc. Cain approaching suggested to Mr. Fryer that he had better move on away. This warning
