Lack of Galleries Declared
To Have Lost City Art Gifts
Mrs. William F. Mcknight, of
Michigan, in Address, Also
Says Washington Should
Be Made a Model Mu-
niciipality.

Washington has lost many valuable art
collections because the city has no ade-
quate gallery facilities, and because Con-
gress will not promise to build galleries,
according to Mrs. William F. Mcknight.
of Grand Rapids. Mich, who spoke yes
terday before the Washington Club.
Mrs. Mcknight before her marriage
was Anna Caulfeld, art lecturer. She
spoke YESTERDAY on the Freer-Whistler
collection, recently donated to the Cap
ital. She is here for the National Rivers
and Harbors convention.
Mrs. Mcknight said that the only
reason the Freer collection came to the
Capital. was because Mr.. Freer made
provision for a 100000 gallery TO house
the pictures.
From art Mrs. Mcknight went into a
discussion of the efforts to make Wash
ington a model city. She said the mem
bers OF Congress argued that TO vote
for improvements in Washington would
not help them with their constituencies
She declared that because of the many
visitors to Washington. who carry back
impressions to their home cities, any
civic betterment here affects the whole
country. Mrs. Mcknight said that the
Michigan Representatives and Senators
need have no fear in voting appropria-
tons to beautify Washington, for it only
would be giving to the residents of the
District the same things they had worked
for before the people of Michigan sent
them to Congress.
Representative of State.
Mrs. Mcknight has been appointed by
the governor of Michigan to represent
Michigan at many conventions in Wash
ington. She is an active worker for
city betterment in Grand Rapids.
In discussing the Capitals art collec-
tons, Mrs Mcknight said that Wash
ington had lost the Riggs and the Alt
man collections, because the city could
not promise galleries, while New York,
even If 1t did not have the housing IA
cilities for donations, would provide them.

NINE OUTLAW UNcApTURED.
Fate of slayer of six Men Is stir
Undecided.

Bingham, Utah. Dec. 2-The fate OF
Ralph Lopez slayer Of six men, today
remained a question which only the re-
moval of the bulkheads and search OF
the Utah-Apex mine, where he took ref
uge, would answer. All night sulphur
smudges poured deadly gases into the
tunnels, and deputies watched each exit
to shoot the desperate on sight.
The failure of Lopez to attempt a
dash from the mine led some to the
belief that the resourceful Mexican has
found a secure retreat from the gases
and would live to fight another under
ground battle.

TAXING AUTOMOBILES

wv HO can object to good roads :?
M And do not the auto enthus-
lasts more than all others,
desire good roads?
Yet shall the owners of cars be taxed
excessively for the building of high
ways which after all are to become
simply trunk lines into the cities?
Came up last week in the house a
bill to tax autos S. year for the Ii
cense tag. At present the charge is
$3.50 for three years.
Note: Mr.. c. M. Bendixen voted
for this bill though it was palpably a
measure designed to help the cities at
the expense of the country and the
country owning auto men.
In the senate Frank Clague opposed
the bill, probably because he knew that
the people of this city and county are
not given to burdening themselves fol
the benefit of others, probably because
he knew that the law was unfair, that
it would appear in the guise of dou.

borne whence no traveller returns.
Happiness may lie beyond the grave

borne whence no traveller returns.
Happiness may lie beyond the grave:
you must die to reach it.
Is there not happiness for you, con-
tentment at least, in this life? Folly
supreme to put death behind you and
forget that you were born to die.
Consider the roses of the field how
they bloom today, fruit tomorrow and
the next day are not. Yet the pink In
the petal is radiant with joy and laughs
it's perfume into the morning air with
the splendid abandon of perfect faith.
Fruiting and dying, yes, but mean
while, living its life completely, blush
ing into the most perfect conceivable
bloom, matchlessly Indifferent to the
inevitable.
There is your lesson, taught by the
rose, emphasized by the calamities OF
the past week.
So live that the death summons,
coming sooner or later, shall at all
times find you in complete prepared
ness, ready to draw the mantle OF your
couch about you and lie down to pleas
ant dreams.
There is no time to set your house in
order except today.
Take the consideration into your
heart, search well your abilities and
desires, letting honesty of conviction
and truth of belief dominate. Say for
this life l was born and here find l
completeness of living. The state of
life in which you find your self is OF
no matter, that is an affair settled
when the mountains were young and
the morning stars sang together.
Humanity has it's needs, loves its
pleasures and demands, each day
crowns rapidly climaxing past or is
rubbish on your hands. You have
lived long, and has love placed the
crown upon your brow, have you lived
in house by the side of the road and
been a friend to men? Woeful the
wretch, white-haired and alone, who
finds mo" forced to his lips.
Youth is with you and are you build
ing character that stands the test of
glimmering ideals, that makes friends
and holds them with hoops of steel,
that sets truth above ambition and
makes enduring humility supreme over
selfshness?
Then shall death find you ready.
Such a one Calmly fronts the NOR
row in the negligence of that trust
that carries God with it and so has al
ready the whole of the future in the
bottom of his heart"

THANKS FOR AN EARLY EASTER

" confidently predict an early

Wiseacres gone wrong and the uni

By all the counts of the past and all

spring should have come early in this

Behold, winter fingers in the lap of
spring, Easter came and went and the
glad rags hang dejectedly on the closet

peep and the blushing young things
appear daily in their dowdy buds.
There you have it and let no one in

IN THE MIDST OF LIFE is DEATH

hundred sat down to their evening

moved out of the heavens, caught them,
crushed them, hurried them into eter-

Time for preparation they had none.
The inevitable caught them, furiously
stamped the life out of them, left the
coldly inanimate in place of the laugh

DAUGHTER OF F. E. RING DEAD
Home of Former Redwood Falls PeO-
pie Saddened by The Death
of Only Child

Particularly sad is the death of
Ruth, the only child of Mr.. and Mrs.
F. E. Ring, who passed away Sunday
morning at rs o'clock at their home,
406 Waco street, on the twelfth ami
versary of her birh and following an
ILLNESS of ten days caused from pneu-
monia, which later developed into peri
tonitis, the direct cause of her death.
1t was apparent Saturday that death
was only mater of few hours and
the mother who was seriously i'll at the
time her daughter was stricken, was
permitted to see her for the first time
during her illness.
While the friends were not admit
ted to the home on account of the i'll
ness of the mother and the father was
unable to ttend the funeral services.
for the same reason, at the New Bay
view cemetery, where interment was
made, hundreds of sorrowing friends
gathered at 4:30 Sunday afternoon
where Rev. T. F. Sessions, pastor Of
the First Methodist church conducted
most beautiful and impressive SER
vice. Nearer My God to Thee" and
ASLEEP in Jesus" were sung by Mr.
and Mrs. ]. w. Pittman, Mrs. Stanton
Simpson, Mrs. Ralph Dimmick OF
Kngsville and Mr.. Lynch. Seemingly
all the fiwers in Corpus Christi were
offered, so numerous, beautiful anc
profuse were he floral tributes.
Ruth was most lovable child in
every respect, attracting the admira-
ton of all who knew her and the large
circle of loving friends grieve with
the parents in their deep affection
The pall-bearers were Messrs. May

The materials for romantic sensa-
ton were bruited about in Redwood on
Monday, in the discovery of ladder
against a young lady's chamber win
dow, coupled with the fact that the
lady and her affianced lover had alb
scented themselves between dark and
daylight. The romantic pair were
traced to Morton, where they left their
team, but evidently only as ruse, as
it subsequently leaked out that they
went by the other railroad to Glencoe,
where they were married in the pres
ence of the young ladies guardian on
Wednesday. Both bride and groom
are yet in their minority in age, and
the match being opposed for the pres
ent in this county, they succeeded by
change of venue. Now that the
marriage has been consumated we hope
the friends of both parties will unite
with us in wishing Mr.. Finley Gray
and bride long life and happiness.

Perhaps the presence in some churches

And, pledging aft to meet again.
We tore oursels asunder;
But oh. fell deaths untimely frost,
That nippd my flower sac early!

But still within my bosom's core
