"SwEET MOLLY o"
1t over.

The following clipping was taken
from the Saltwater Gazette. We
may be stung in one sense, as the
clipping may have been only a
press notice, but the ways OF
Chauncey Olcott are fairly depicted
and even though it not be true. it is
a thing Mr.. Olcott would not hesi-
tate an instant to do. People are
obsessesed with the idea that actors
as a whole are blggoty, but of
Chauncey Olcott this cannot be
said. Read it for yourself and
Judge if it does not ring true.
Occasionally in the life of player i'm
promptu scenes are acted which leave a
lasting imprint on the memory. 1t is not
liable, for example, that any person in the
Metropolitan Opera House, Minneapolis,
at Wednesday matinee recently will ever
forget a scene that occurred after the cur
tain had fallen on the second act of sSha-
meen Dhu, Chauncey Olcott's new play.
"The dramatic climax TO the second act
had been played and the audience was
vociferiously applauding, when the Irish
comedian appeared before the curtain and,
instead of bowling his acknowledgement as
usual, raised his hand commanding silence.
He held letter which he stated had been
sent to his dreSsing-room, and asked the
indulgence of his hearers as he read its con-
tents in voice choked with emotion. 1t
stated that the writer, an old lady, had for
many years been regular attendant at Mr..
Olcott's performances in Minneapolis, but
that she was past seventy years of age and
suffering from a malady which she felt
would prove fatal, that one of the choicest
pleasures of her life had been in listening
to the sweet singers moving ballads, and
that she would be present that day in
seat in the balcony, probably her last visit
to the theater, and would he for the sake of
an old lady whose days were numbered,
sing once again the song she so dearly
loved Sweet Molly Or is the writer
of the letter present. asked Mr.. Olcott.
Every eye in the house swept the balcony,
but there was no response until Mr.. Olcott
saw in the upper gallery a little old lady in
a black bonnet, supported by an anxious
faced young girl, who had risen to her feet
and was waving her handkerchief at Mr..
Olcott, feebly announcing her presence.
The comedian cleared lump from his
throat and announced that it had been
years since he had sung the song in ques-
ton, but that he would try, and with the
sole accompaniment of his leader at the
piano, his voice arose in the familiar
strain. He never in his life sang better or
sweeter, and as he finished there was not a
dry eve in the house,

EMPLOYMENT FOR NEEDY

The great trouble with charitably
inclined people is in giving without
knowing who their contribution
helps, and 1t is seldom the needy
see much of it. Columns could be
written of charity frauds practiced
in every city, and the truth would
make several organizations rare up
in the air, and for the very reason
their methods are covered with the
cloak of religion is why they get
away with it without exposure.
Employment furnished the needy,
at living wage, is the best charity
for all concerned, and each county
in every state should have one
charity organization and no more,
composed of three or more heads,
according to place and population
under control. Each county should
furnish employment one way or
another, for all who need it, while
the INDECENT should be taken care
of with free hand in place of the
grating, stingy, starving aims
houses so common these days. Fur
nish employment for the needy and
the INDECENT would be taken in
hand by their relatives and friends
SO that generation hence, aims
houses would be of little or no use.
There is not county in the United
States that has not employment for
all her idle men on road or land

TO GO To HIGH SCHOOL

Commencing September Is, a
complete high school course will be
started in Jackson prison for the
inmates, Warden Simpson having
found that nine out of ten prisoners
never went beyond the eighth grade
in school.
Competent instructors will be
engaged to conduct the classes. The
first eight grades will also be taught.
There are dozens of young men in
the prison, according to Warde n
Simpson, who have had but a short
period of schooling.
Fred L. Keller. deputy state su-
periDtendent of public instruction
in Lansing, has been investigating
the need of a school in Jackson
prison and has promised his sup
port. The officia Is of the Michigan

POOR BUSINESS

The city Of Saltwater is having
quite little trouble with their Ii
brary. Not long since some gink
broke into the library and did
great deal of malicious damage to
the contents thereof. The past
week the breaking-in operation was
repeated.
1t is not for us to get out of our
territory, but we are going to ven-
ture this once. The city has spent
great deal of money on their IL
brary and feel proud of it. It is a
place young and old can go, and
feel we'll repaid for the going; for
they find fiction, history. classics,
ETC., to their hearts content.
Then to have some misguided
would-be" house breaker mutilate
these books is enough to put the
good people on edge. We have
sympathy for some kinds of crimi-
mails, but for the above kind, none.
Ordinarily we wouldn't recommend
the penitentiary, but in a case of
this kind dose of the same kind of
medicine we are taking would not
be out of place.

We MAKE OUR OWN PRISONS
The poet has sung that


Stone walls do not a prison make,
Nor iron bars cage.
But there are some things which
do make prison and a cage, name
ly, our desire for pleasant and easy
things and positions.
All over the world people are
pining III such prisons which they
have made, carrying their prison
about with them like a snail with
it's shell. In prison and out, we
are anxiously searching for oppor-
tunities and ignoring the opportu-
mites we have; but we shall never
get anywhere until we are strong
enough to take the step that lies i'm
mediately before our feet. Without
doubt Heaven answers our pray
ers; but it is not the business of
Heaven to mend the holes in our
clothes or to sugar our bread and
butter. Hence we get what our
Soul desires, not what our physical
personality bankers for. 1t is these
hankerings that bar us from our
true freedom, manliness and 1nde-
pendence. The Soul, the true Self,
stands above and beyond them.
We are all pupils in the school of
life, yearning to achieve this true
independence; and we find that
towards all, courage, and
good cheer are essential to success.

The Recent Exposures in Regard to White
Slavery Causes One Of the Contrihu-
tors to Promu|gate the Following
Comment.

In recent publication an emf
nent clergyman declares that the
reason so many young girls go
wrong can be traced to the par
ents." He lays claim to the fact
that mothers are altogether too
careless of the welfare of their
daughters, by allowing them to
take long rides into the country
and to attend late festivities
with young men unchaperoned.
We concur with the doctor. He
further states: That it is a known
fact that girls have been ostracized
from society by a circle of young
men for repulsing the forward ad-
vances of the latter Many of
these men he claims are leaders in
society.
Now, Doctor, allow me to pro-
pound quiz. the same courtesy l
extend to you: Who and what is
society?
Society to me has always been
defined as the idle rich. whose sons
languish away their time in various
sports and pastimes which, in many
instances, are not conducive to good
health and morals. Girls should
consider it blessing to be Stunned
by class of men who have in mind
aughI except to accomplish their
ruin.
Are these young men you speak
of as being leaders in society" the
best element of our young Ameri-
can manhood? No, doctor, they or
their kind are not the sustaining
qualities of this, or any other self
respecting nation.
The men, / might say people,
collectively speaking, who are the
very bowels of a nation, and upon
whom a nation depends for strength
and protection are drawn not from
society, the elite," but from the
sturdy ranks of the middle class. 1t
is to this class that womanhood can
