a temporary expediency in the treat

Charity Must be Steady.
Nor is it advisable that charity
should aim to do more than this. Long
continued charity pauperizes and de-
moralizes; morphine to temporarily re-
lieve pain is valuable, but as a steady
diet it is not to be recommended. Char
ity should therefore be voluntary and
spontaneous when the need is pre-
scented Organized charity which be-.
comes professional not only robs be-
nevolence of its chiefest charm but
to the recipient a false and
1emoralizing hope of permanent as
sistance.

AT THE EMPIRE.

An act that ought to go big over the
vaudeville circuits is that originated
by Robert Rexdale and entitled PLAY
ing the Tanks With a Reuben Show,
which is on view as the feature of the
bill the last half of the week at the
Empire. SO far as known there is not
another act in vaudeville like that Of
fered by Mr.. Rexdale, and it never
fails to score with his audience. Mr..
Rexdale. first of all, is a poet. His
writings are full OF soul and sentiment,
and get the reader or listener instant
". Mr.. Rexdaie, who Is also a finish
ed reader and lecturer. has illustrated
several of his more popular poems and
these he recites while the picture ma
chine carries out the story on the
screen. It's delightful novelty, a re-
freshing departure from the makeup
of the usual vaudeville bill.
Other acts to be seen the last half
of the week at the Empire are the
Four Charles. European jugg:ers and
head balancers. who do some startling
stunts; Fred Ireland and Memo Cato,
who sing and dance neatly; Little
Lord Roberts. who probably is, as he
claims, the smallest comedian in the
world" and Jack Morrissey & Co., in

agree is one OF thu most artistic you

Cheney Ellis was found guilty of the
murder of his wife last evening by a
jury before Judge Adelor ]. Petit. His
punishment was fixed at Is years i'm
prisonment.
Ellis gasped and wilted in his chair
when the clerk of the court began to
read: 1--WE, the jury, find the defend
ant guilty in the manner and form
charged in the Indictment"
Stephen A Malato, assistant states
attorney. had asked the jury to find
the Cincinnati leather merchant guilty
and to fix his punishment as death.
The shadow of the gallows, however,
passed from Ellis vision with the next
words: and fix his punishment
at Is years Imprisonment"
Ellis is Relieved.
A wan smile came to his face; his
hands twitched; he wet his lips, heav-
ed a sigh and silently grasped the
hand of George Remus, his>~}awyer.
Then a deputy sheriff led him away 10
his cell. while his lawyer was filing
motion for a rehearing and declaring
to hearers that the verdict was favor
able to the defendant.

theory that n man may kill his wife
in a jealous rage and then plead in
sanity will not be accepted in Cook
county. He deserved death, but the
verdict is satisfactory. He can reduce
it to nine years by good behavior, but
il is nearly the same as life verdict.
Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Hosea, parents
of the slain woman, did not hear it
read. They were at their hotel. ready
TO go back to their Cincinnati home.
They were not satisfied with the YER

"The Traffic is such a play, and it is

ment of social and industrial condi-
lions ever acted. and it is at the same
time a play of intense and compelling
