DR.. SH!NN
Life Story Of Former Harri.
son County Divine is
Well Received.

The first editions OF the life story
of the Rev. Q, H. shinn, d. D., for
mer Fairmonter, whose boyhood
home was in shinaston, entitled,
Saith With Power" by the Rev.
Mr.. Laughlin, has been printed and
is now for sale.
The following is a criticism OF the
Work by the Hon. Granville D. Hall,
of Glencoe, H., also a former West
Virg saian, author of the Daughter
of the ELM" and many other well
known books:
Il have been reading carefully
the portions which more especially
appeal to me. i do not know when
have followed the story of a life
which touched me more than this.
The literary part of the work is adj
mirably done by the biographer.
and the whole story is one offcapti-
waiting interest. If this book is to
be circulated by the church in the
wide field in which DIR. Shinn's long
years of labor and visitations were
spent, can not doubt it will he read
in many a home-humble and
otherwise-with deep emotions and
tears. To those nearest and dearest
to him in life this volume will be a
memorial to be cherished with his
memory while life shall endure"

URGES 3 NEW BATTLESHIPS.
Secretary Meyer COnfers With House
Naval Committee on Bill.

The navy enlargement plan out
lined in Secretary Meyers recent an
nual report was discussed with the
House Committee on Naval Affairs
on Monday by the Secretary.
Mr.. Meyer direcced attention to
the recommendation in Ais report that
Congress at this session authorize the
building Of three additional battle
ships. At the last session owing to
a fight on the navy only one battle
ship was authorized, when it is usual
to authorize two.
Secretary Meyer argued that if the
United States was to keep pace with
the naval programmes Of other nations
it was important that three battle
ships should be provided for in the
naval bill now being framed
Secretary Me yer suggested further
that appropriation be made for four
torpedo boats for each battleship.
Hearings on the bill will soon be
closed and the budget will be submit
ted to the House the latter part of
this month.

"THE QUAKER GIRL"
Peerless Musical Comedy al Academy
Of Music Baltimore Next Week.

"The Quaker Girl" the peerless
musical comedy-hit of three CONT
nents ald the one undisputed trie
umph of last season in New York,
opens in Baltimore at the New Acad-
envy of Music next Monday night,
after years run at the Park Thea
tire. New York, with the original
company headed by Ina Clsire and
Percival Knight. There are few
amusement lovers who have not heard
of the history of this famous comedy
and its arrival has long been awaited.
Two years in London, a year in
Paris and a year in New York are
some Of the records established by
the winsome Quaker lassie and the
tunefu melodies and the famous
"Come to the Ball" waltz are as apt
to be heard on the South African
veldt or in the jungles Of India as in
ones own parlor. Lionel Monckton
wro tethe score which is conceded 20
be by far the most tuneful ever
brought across from England, while
the book is by James T. Tanner, and
the lyrics by Adrian Ross and Percy
Greenbank. Henry r. Harris, un-
der whose management the play is
presented here, is giving it precisely
as it was seen for two years in Lon
don.
The story centres about Prudence,
a demure little Quaker girl who.
in the first act, is shown in her
quaint Quaker home in an English
village. Hither journeys Tony
Chute the gay young attache Of the
American Embassy in Paris, and
he undertakes the not difficult task
Of teaching Prudence to love. Cap
tain Charters, a Kings messenger,
is ia the village paying court to the
! Princes Mathilde, who has been eXiled
from France, and the four sip a glass
of wine together, which proves to be
/ the undoing of Prudence, for when
her stern Quaker parents hear Of it
they cast her off.
Madame Blum, a Partisan modiste,
| il in the village at the time and she
| agrees to take Prudence to Paris and
| give her employment in her shop.
Thus in the second act the audience
| finds the Quaker lassie Partisan shop
| girl, learned Paris ways fast, while
I her companion is the Princess, who
has taken up the guise of a shop girl
i in order to remain in Paris. Tony is
on hand and is making fine headway
in his suit for Prudence until Diane,
an actress, an old flame of his, be-
comes jealous and attempts a scheme
to break up the affair between Tony
and Prudence.
She places an old love letter from
Tony in the pocket of dress Pru-
denee is to wear. However, the let
ter is not from Tony at all, but fro n
| the Minister Of the Interior, and when
/ Prudence returns it to him he is SO
happy at the averting Of q scandal
that he removes the ban of exile from
the Princess. At a gorgeously staged
ballroom scene in the suburbs of
Paris the two couples sre reunited
and 81 ends happily. 10 the cast of
''The Quaker Girl" are included May
Vokes, Nellie McHenry. Gilbert
Childs, Roland Bottomley and May
Allison.

cared for until homes can be secured
for them. Mrs. Jensen was only
slightly wounded, three of the shots
missing the intended victim. Neigh

send them out to cut wood and when
they failed to return with the required
amount he would tie them securely
and apply heavy stock whip to their
bodies. No complaint was made by

Yankton.-The Yankton city COM
mission has elected six from the list
of petitioners for saloon license, that
being the number allowed to this city
by the recent ruling of the legisla-
ture which will become effective July
1. A committee of citizens opposed to
the sale of liquors invoked an injunc-
ton against the commission granting
license to any petitioner on the
grounds that the requisite number Of
freeholders were not secured for
signers to the petition referring the
question of the sale of Intoxicating
liquors to the voters at the last elec-
ton. Judge Trip in his decision set
aside the injunction, holding that he
had no right to restrict the city in it's
transaction of legal business.
