STRONG ADDRESS
BY JUDGE BRUCE
Discusses the Wonderful Work OF
the Three Great Reformers
of Chicago.

Threatening weather prevented
many people from hearing Judge
Bruce last night when he spoke to
members of the Bismarck Suffrage
association in the auditorium of the
Commercial Club rooms on the sub
ject, Three Reformers.' Those who
were prevented from listening to
Judge Pruces discussion Of Miss Jane
Adams, Mrs. Florence Kelly, and
Miss Julia La,hrop, whom the speak
er characterized as the three great
est individualities of this cen-ury,
missed an opportunity to hear a. beau.
tiful tribute to the work OF these
great reformers and a comprehensive
study Of their work in the slums Of
Chicago and tha factories of Illinois.
Jane Addams.
"Miss Adams is known as the first
citizen of Chicago, and | see no reas-
on why she should not be known as
The first citizen OF the United States.
Tho really great persons are the ones
that have formed ideals. Miss Ad-
dams, Miss IathrCD and Mrs. Kelly
have certainly done that. When |
think of Miss Addams always think
of her in connection with General
Booth and Cour.-, Tols.oi, I always
compare her with these two reform
ers. General Booth saw the dignity
and worth -whileness in the men of all
classes, but his endeavor was largely
confined to the spreading of the UNI
dera .anding Of the Kingdom of Heav-
