pleased with the Last DAYS of
Pompeii." Bulwer-Lytton's great
novel put into photographic form and
thrown upon the screen, was evinced
by the large crowd that attended the

STOKES IS STILL
CLAIMING CREDIT
Tells Elizabeth Audience Repub-
licans Really Framed the
Reform Measures.

ELIZABETH, Oct. 2S.-Former
Governor Edward C. Stokes made mis-
only visit to Union county in his
campaign last night and addressed
more than 500 persons in Proctor's
Broad Street Theatre. Former Gov
ernor Foster N. Voorhees, was chair
man. In addition addresses were
made by county and local candidates.
"If what I am told by those who
ought to know is true said Mr.
Stokes, Union County will give a
plurality to the Republican ticket
This will mean that the next Gov
ernor of this State will be Repub-
lican.
II come here as a Republican, but
I do not claim that that party has
always been right. In the past fifty
wears, however, it has been nearer
right than the other parties.

with one exception, all of the re-
form measures put on the statue
books in the past fifteen years were
put there by Republicans. These in
clude the public utilities act, the en-
ployers' liability act, corrupt practise
act and the Geran law. These were
not new to the Democrats. They
simply amended them and amplified
them. The Democratic party has
adopted Republican children. The
public utilities act and the direct pri-
mary act were passed during my
administration.
There is nothing new in the Geran
act, Mr.. Fielder says that this act
is perfect. Yet in his own county
at the last primary occurred stipend
uous frauds. He said that the law
was all right but that election Of
ficers were dishonest.
when l am Governor, / am going
to amend that law so that the in
dependent voter will not be disfran-
chised as he was at the last primary.
shall still keep the two ballot boxes,
but shall have a third where the In
dependent voter may cast his ballot.
We need him in the selection of candi-
dates and to be a warning to party
leaders that they must put up only
the best possible man.
my opponents criticise me because
I took lunch outside of this State. In
answer to them l want to say that l
am going to eat where I please, when
I please and with whom ] please. 1t
so happened that at that dinner there
were only six or seven New Jersey
commuters. Ten years ago these same
people criticised me by saying that
ate at 15-cent lunch counter.
Governor Fielder apparently is to
be shelved. He is evidently no longer
a factor. They are now gong to try
to elect President Wilson Governor of
New Jersey by proxy. This is a State
campaign and New Jersey must not
be made plaything for national poll
tics.

backward, oh backward, turn time
In your fight and make me a child
again just for tonight" Well, believe
me- time won't have to turn back
ward to make you a child for a couple
of hours, in thoughts at least, if you
visit the Shubert Theatre this week
and see that most delightful produc-
ton, "Snow White and the Seven
SDwarfs,' the dainty little fairy-tale
play that is on view at that theatre
this week.
Don't think it is a show just for
the Riddles for it is far from that
and is just as pleasing to the grown
ups as it is to the little ones.
Maybe you think you have forgot
ten all about the days when you used
to get your old, and usually torn and
tattered, "Grimm's Fairy Tales and
sit off in a corner by yourself and
sread again and again the troubles of
the beautiful princess and her
triumph in the end over her wicked
aunt and the awe-inspiring witch that
still haunted you when you went to
BED, so much SO that you pulled the
covers over your head and shivered
INIT! you went to sleep. Now, don t
say you didn't do that very thing.
You know you did.
And when you see "Snow White"
you will find out you have not for
gotten those childhood days, either,
for the dainty little fairy tale brings
them right back to you, and you will
surely be well pleased with yourself
for seeing the show. The writer was
last night, and so was every other
adult person that helped make up an
audience that almost filled the
theatre. AS for the "kiddies," and
ere was a big bunch of them pres
ent, they went home ''tickled to
death" and beseeching their parents
TO take them to the theatre again.
1t seems a shame to work that little
word dainty overtime, but really it
seems to be the one word that most
aptly describes the production of
"Snow White" Dainty, fairylike
girls, dainty music and dainty dances
help to make up most enjoyable
performance, with the fearsome old
witch, the wicked aunt and the seven
real dwarfs thrown in for good meas

Miss Juliette Day made most
pleasing and winsome-I came nearly
using that word dainty again-Prin-

the two scenes, first where she is dis
covered in the home of the Dwarfs,

housekeeping princess, stamped her
as an actress of the highest merit,

Traces Of Powder In Brain Gives
Strength TO Theory of
Suicide.

VALDOSTA, June 21.-The Coro-
ner's Jury investigating the death last
Saturday of Mrs. Morris Newsome to-
day rendered the following verdict:
I'VE find that the deceased died as
the result Of shooting herself with a
pistol, causing instant death, accord
ing to the evidence, cruel treatment by
her husband being the cause"
The woman's body was exhumed
to-day and an examination made. It
showed powder marks through the
brain, proving that the muzzle of the
pistol had been placed Immediately
in the ear and tending strongly to the
theory of suicide. The bullet was
found imbedded in the brain. New

yesterday, was released from custody
under nominal bond late o-day, after
the Coroners Jury had rendered its
verdict.

70 PER CENT Of
HAWAII MALES
ARE ORIENTALS
Japanese, Chinese and Koreans
0utnumber Natives and Ameri-
cans in Pacific Possessions.

WASHINGTON, June 21.-Those
persons who are inclined to consider
the Janapese as a serious menace to
the safety of this country, will find
fuel to kindle their fires Of agitation
in a bulletin on the composition and
characteristics of the population Of
Hawaii, soon to be issued by Direc-
tor Durand of the Bureau Of the
Census. Department Of Commerce.
The statistics which were prepared
from the thirteenth decennial census
taken in 1910. show that the Japa-
nese. in that year, numbering 1858,
constituted 41,5 per cent, OF more
than two fifths of the total popula-
ton, while the japanese. Chinese and
Koreans combined. numbered 1O5,SSs
or 55.2 per cent Of the total popula-
ton. The increase Of the japanese in
the decade 1sOO-1sI10 was 1864. or
3O.4 per cent. In the same period the
Chinese decreased 4,O93. or 1873 per
cent.
Hawaii First Striking Point.
It is practically certain that in case
OF war between the United States and
Japan, the first move Of the latter
nation would be an attempt to seize
Hawaii and the Philippines. To
those who think that such a war is
imminent, the statistics quoted above
will bring alarm.
On the other hand, in the decade
1900-191O the number OF CauCasians.
including Americans, Portuguese,
Porto Ricans, Spaniards and other
Caucasian descendants. inreased 49,,
229. or SIS per cent, the percentage of

As enumerated in 1910 the number
males p years of age and over was
1895, Of whom 7O.3 per cent were
Chinese, japanese, of Koreans-near-
ly half, being Japanese-16.5 per
cent were Caucasians, 90 per cent
were Hawaiians, and 81 per cent

purpose of levying an inheritance tax
upon estates of persons in Georgia,
H. H. Swift, the new member of the
Muscogee County delegation in the
General Assembly, will introduce a
bill at the coming session of the Leg
islature.
The Swift bill would exclude all
estates of less than $4,000 clear and
above all encumbrances. He would
begin by levying a tax Of per cent
upon estates of $4,000 to $4,000 and
continue the scale upward until the
estates reach 100000 or more when
the rate of tax levied would be 6 per
cent.

heritance tax is a new thing in
Georgia, it is really an old practice,

the pier a throng Of spectators ap-
plauded the seamanship OF Pilot John
F. Hopkins
The weatherbeaten tar, who has
brought many big ships through Am
brose Channel, did not conceal his ad~
miration Of his temporary charge.
"She could dock herself" he re
marked as he turned her over to the
ships commander.
Captain Hans Ruser, commander,
said the trip had been fair, but too
much fog had prevailed for best speed.
Although the passage was made in s
days, 5 hours and IA minutes and av-
eraged Pills knots an hour, the I'm
perator made % knots an hour on her
trials in the North Sea-" he said.
Not one of the $3.50 passengers had
anything but praise for the behavior
of the Imperator. Many of them had
crossed the ocean before, and they
were unanimous in agreeing with Rear
Admiral Winslow that the Imperator
is a model Of comfort and luxury.
