Woodrow Wilson Has Record of
Which He Can Feel Proud.

Chicago, Sept 1O.-In the midst of
all the charges and countercharges
flying back and forth between the two
FACTIONS of the Republican party,
woodrow Wilson stands serene and
unassailed. He has no past that is
not creditable to him. Every year Of
his life has been lived in such a way
that now when he stands on the
heights no man can say word
against him or cast aspersions upon
his record or impugn his motives.
There Is no qestion in the minds of
the American people as to Wilson'S
honor and truthfulness. No taint %

stands out in this campaign as the one
man whose record is unassaila BILE and
whose program meets the approval of
the entire body Of his own party.

Crossing her veins until they mingle.
The lnternationals are mingled. The
five members of the company represent
five different countries, and offer an APP
propriately broad range of program to
their audiences. Tekla Farm, the so
prano, is IA native of Sweden; Rose Hell
denreich. the contralto, comes from Ger
many; Christian Mathisen, tenor, is a
native of Norway, and the baritone, Burt
Mckinnie, can surely belong to no coun-
try save Scotland. As to Mr.. Lawrence

to render concert pieces in English, Ger
man or Italian as well as in his own
tongue.

effects it gives when it is played on forte
