THE WELCOME
BY Berton Braley.

It's How do you do to William,
But simply "He1lo!" to Bill!
For William has stocks in his safety
box,
While the riches of Bill are nil;
And William has might and power.
Which people are wary of,
So they smile and bow to William
now,
But penniless Bill they love!
It's How do you do?" to William,
With something of fear and awe,
When we're face to face in the mar
ket place,
Where gold is the chiefest law,
But the children and men and Wo-
men,
They turn with right good will
From work or play when he comes
their way
And boiler Hello" to Bill
It's How do you do?" to William,
With the thought of his cash in
view;
While not a stamp has Bill, the
scamp!
We like him because-we do!
Now had you your choice of greetings
Which one would meet your will?
The How do you do?" for William
Or the simple 'tHello!" for Bill?

Thursday night but his presence was
not learned of until to-day. Newman
has denied himself absolutely to all
visitors. Attempts to communicate
with him by telephone have been
fruitless. Relatives report him broken
in mind and body.
Newman's mental anguish arising
from his misalliance has been accen-
tuated by the institution of bank
ruptcy proceedings against the Mem
phis Paint and Glass Company, of
which he is president and principal
stakeholder. News of this action
reached him last night but has ELECTED

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 22.-To pre-
vent the landing of marines in Mexico
the Hnesta Government to-day
pledged itself to the protection of all
4 foreigners. That this pledge was re-
garded as of little value was shown
by acts which Immediately followed.
Sir Lionel Garden, the British Min
lister instead of being assured, sent
word to all the British subjects to
concentrate in the cities for mutual
protection. Such action would place
British citizens within easy reach OF
asylum in the English consulates In
the event they were menaced by
rebels.

ment in giving assurances that meas
ures had been taken to assure the
safety of foreigners. In brief state
ment General Banquet said:
Orders have been given to place
enough troops In the oil fields and at
A other danger spots to afford ample
protection for all foreigners"
Blanquets pledge was the sequel
to requests made by the Pearson syn
dicate to the American and British
Governments for protection after its
property at TuXpam and Tampico was
4 seized by rebels and threatened with
destruction.
Rebels Still Advancing.
The International situation is now
concerned chiefly with the protection
oil foreign lives. Foreign Minister
4 Noheno said to-day that the United
States Government had made no fur
tner representations and that the sit
Vaton remains unchanged"
A dispatch from Guadalajara states
that rebel activity in that district has
reached the highest pitch it has yet
4 assumed. Five thousand refugees are
nuddled in the city without food

Ties can not relieve their suffering
and an outbreak of disease is feared
These refugees fed from Topic before
the advance of a rebel army under
General Martin Espinosa.
Similar conditions were reported
rom Durango, Aguas Calientes, san
Luis Potosl and Oaxaca.
Il is strongly indicated that Gen
efal Huerta intends to see his legls-
alive program completed before he
turns his personal attention to the
determination of the rebels. AL
JAough there has been a halt In the

event did more to stamp its name in the
history Of the country than that which
occurred in the home OF the pastor of the
Congregational Church on June "a, 1913.
The head Of the congregation al that time
was no less a person than the Rev.
Lyman Beecher, the man who had been

of 1857. l was then student at Dickin-
son College, at Carlisle. and club was
formed to attend course OF lectures In
the capital of Pennsylvania, twenty miles
away. AS the trains did not run at night.
our trip was made in an omnibus-not an
inconsiderable jaunt in pursuit of knowl-
edge. One OF the course was by Edward
Everett, who was then delivering his
celebrated lecture on Washington in aid
OF the women's association for the pur-
chase OF Mount Vernon. Everett's ora
tory was OF highly ornate and studied
character. His sentences were completely
rounded and polished with the utmost
nicely 1t is said that his gestures and
poses were practised before mirror. and
his words and actions were those of a
delcately constructed machine. The ef-
feet was to arouse admiration rather
than enthusiasm.
General Charles Devens was a close
disciple OF this school Of oratory. and a
later generation, who could not hear
Everett and have heard Devens, has a
clear conception OF Everett's style and
power. Mr. Beecher was to be the next
in the course. and we were told in the cir
culars that we would be treated to a rare
specimen OF natural eloquence.
A majority OF the club were students
from the South. imbued with Democratic
politics and by no means In sympathy
