The Schubert Symphony Club.


 The Schubert Symphony Club and Lady Quartette of Chicago presented a varied program of artistic elegance last evening at the First Presbyte- rian church that was received enthu- siastically by a fastidious audience of the most refined and cultured of the citizenship of this music-loying, cosmo- politan city. From beginning to end 1t was sparkling with music's most choice jewels of vocal and instrument tai selections and proved yeritable treat to the attentive and apprecia- tive audience wlo repeatedly en- cored them,
 The violin and vocal solos, the readings. club selections and the num- bers presented by the lady quartette were thoroughly enjoyed and render, ed in a most pleasing manner.
 Tee wonderful range of voices shown by the ady quartette is over three octaves and this enables them to render music rarely in reach of female quartette and explains why nearly all of their selections are writ ten especially for them. The phe- nomenally low voice of the contralto is in direct contrast to the very high range of the soprano.
 The Quartette is composed of the Misses Ieeta Corder, first soprano, Haze Corby. second soprano: Rhca Raven, first alto; Lovie Zendt Pur- cell. contralto.
 Miss Hazel Corby rendered some very amusing readings in which she showed much expression
 The aria sung by Miss Leta Cor der, who has au exquisite soprano, was enthusiastically applauded She graciously responded with Annie Laurie a pleasing encore
 Miss Lovie Zendt Purcell delighted her hearers with contraIto so. c, Wien | Ann With You,' in which her wonderful rich contrato voice was shown to fine advantage
 The club numbers of instrumental selections were fine.
 The exquisite playing of Mir Thomas Valentine Purcell, great American violin virtuoso, was star feature of the performance. Mir Pur cell is undoubtedly an artist of rare ab9 9ity. The beauty of expression. splendid technique and exquisite se- lections were equalled only by the modesty of his manner.

 QUESTION SOLVED
So Far as This Lady Is Concerned She Doesn't Seem to
 Need One.

Pollock, La-iMrs. T. s. Blair, of this town, has the following to say, which should be of interest to women generally; For months, my health was very bad, and the medicines l took did not seem to do me any good.
 l was very weak and nervous, and some days, l could not be up.
 asked my husband to get me bottle of Cardui, the womans tonic. to try, and before I had taken one bottle I was up and doing my work. Before l commenced taking Cardui, had such spells was not able to do anything. Now, l have only taken three bottles of Cardui in all, and l feel fine.
 "A few months ago weighed 1S5 pounds. Now I weigh 15S, and I do all my own work, cook, wash and milk-and feel like I did when l was sweet sixteen
 Taking Cardui has cured me"
 As a relief from the distressing symptoms of womanly ailments, noth- ing has been found during the past 30 years that would take the place of Cardui.
 Its superiority is still unquestioned as a mild. building tonic for cases of womanly weakness where tired na- ture needs help. Made from purely vegetable ingredients, Cardui has no bad after effects and can do you noth. ing but good.
 l Try Cardui.

this, which enabled Becker to gain new trial from the court of appeals after his first conviction.
 Becker's counsel, Martin T. Man ton, entered formal objection to Jus tice Seabury's remarks to the jury. T take exception" he said, to the entire charge on the ground that # is an animated argument'
 The verdict caught Becker unpre- pared, for when the jury first retired his lawyer told him he looked for an acquittal The defendant at that time declared he did not believe .t possible he could be convicted
 Mrs. Becker was even more hopeful.
 "I cannot conceive" she said, that any twelve sensible men can give credence to such cooked-up stories as those told by Rose Webber and Val lon and Pitt. 1 don't expect con viction. The worst that can happen is a disagreement. Charles is inno- cent and he will be exonerated."
 Es details of what happened in the jury room developed later tonight, if appeared that five ballots had been taken. The first ballot is said to have stood six for guilty in the first degree, two for not guilty three for a lesser degree and one blank A second ballot, taken after the jurors had luncheon, brought one man over to the majority The third ballot showed a gain of two and the fourth stood ten for guilty. The fifth ballot was unanimous.

 brace and dropped into a chair.
 Becker stood looking down at Her as she wept.
 Handcuns were then locked about his wrists; he was taken from the room and around the corridor to the other side of the building, across the Bridge of Signs and into the Tomps. On his way around the corridor friends expressed their sorrow.
 T am very, very sorry for myself, he declared grimly. T have nothing more to say"
 Immediately after the court was adjourned Mr. Manton said.
 q fail to see how the jury man aged to convict Becker in view of conflicting evidence presented ly witnesses for the state and evidence that our witnesses gave. However, it has been done. 1 immediately will set to work to prepare an appeal, We will fight and fight hard to have Becker cleared of this charge
 District Attorney Whitman ex- pressed himself highly gratified with the verdict. 1t speaks for itself, he said. Becker is guilty. It was proved. He must pay the penalty cf his crime"
 Mrs. Becker remained in the sheriffs office a long time after her husband had been returned to the Tombs She was too overcome with grief to leave immediately. When she went at last she had to be as sisted from the building. This, the sixteenth and last day of the second trial, was devoted to the judges charge and deliberation of the jury.
 In his review of the evidence Jus tice Seabury directed the jury to find the defendant guilty that they must decide that the setories of Rose, Val lon and Webber were supported by witnesses not involved in the crime. This centered emphasis on the testi- mony of Charles Pitt, Jr., who was Beckers press agent when the for mer police lieutenant was master of the old strong arm squad. Plit was a witness for the defense at the first trial, but at the second he took the stand in support of the state. Beck CTS attorneys tried to prove that Pitt also was an accomplice, but the court left this question to the jury and their verdict showed they decided he was not.
 This point, it was said tonight, might form the basis upon which Becker's attorneys promised to take the case once more to a higher court. It was a similar question, in volving the status of Sam Schepps, witness at the first trial but not at

THE DIFFERENCE.

There is a very distinguishing diff. ference between putting up money for this highway proposition than en- tering into the ordinary improvem mt district to raise money for improve ment of this nature
 In the improvement district, while the building Is near your. door, yet the property is taxed for the building, and there is no return except in the special benefit to you, the advantage to your property, and the general good you have entered into.
 In contributing to this highway proposition you are merely asked co buy so much road scrip, which is de- lvered to you, and which you can use dollar for dollar, in the payment of your taxes.
 That means you are not losing any. thing, unless perchance you are one who sometimes buys your road scrip at the very narrow mar sin of saving that one sometimes makes on the op- portunity.
 The highway will be of much more general good to you than the little saving you might make in being able to buy your road scrip in the com ing year at perhaps 95 cents on the dollar.
 Take this fact into consideration when the committee from the com missioners comes to you for a sub scription." This is not donation. 1t cannot be construed as such. You are merely buying your scrip for taxes for a coming year.
 In St. Paul, when they needed a lot of money for public improvements, they had bond issue and issued the bonds in sums as small as Sl0. Thou | sands of people bought the bonds The bonds may have paid a very | small margin of interest but the in- terest was not worth while. The | people subscribed because they didn't want the bonds sold outside of St. Paul.
 Raising this highway money by road scrip issue is not so different from the St Paul plan. You are merely asked to take such a sum as you can use for taxes, put up the money and get the scrip. If you put up $50 or S100 in cash, you get an equivalent with which to pay your taxes when the time comes.

WORTH VISIT TO CALIFORNIA
and Beauty, Well Repays Tourist
for Long Journey.

The most impressive mountain In
the world is Shasta in California. I'm
like Pixies Peak and many other of
the worlds great mountains, 1t is not
surrounded by a number of lesser
ones, and its tremendous height-14,-
440 feet-is appreciated by the eye.
1t is sublimely grand, and yet grace
fully beautiful. Against the blue of a
California sky it's curved outlines seem
to sweep in the perfect segments OF a
circle from the apex of the cone to the
horizon Far up on it's base the dark
green of the timber-line is met by the
virgin Wilderness OF Shasta's snow, and
then on, up and up, far past the sum-
mer clouds. points the alabaster pyra-
mid.
Shasta is an extinct volcano, and has
two large glaciers. The Whitney
glacier is visible from the railroad. II
looks like a narrow streak of snow,
but it is over mile in width, and IL
scanned with great assures and GREY
asses
At times a natural banner is un.
furled from Shasta's Peak. This Ia
called the "snow banner of Shasta.
1t only occurs when the gale attacks
the summit and blows the snow in
great gusts streaming against the
sky" as the railroad book has It.

MOT all the dresses made for little
~ girls are long WASTED. Those de-
signed for dress-up occasions, the
late afternoon promenade, or the little
lady's appearance at the dinner ia
BILE, are often made of foulard or 9TH
er light weight silk, and along the lines
pictured here. They are not quite so
faultlessly adapted to the childish fig
ure as the longer wasted models, but
they afford variety and look well on
the too slender bodies of fast-growing
children.
At this stage ("the awkward age" it
is pitilessly called) the mother is put
to her wits end to clothe her little
maid attractively. 1t is ruinous to
allow the child to become conscious
that she is not as graceful as she will
be later on. Let her either be uncon-
scious of her clothes or made to feel
that she looks particularly well in any
one of her new dresses, and this will
help her immensely in carrying her
self well.
This simple little dress of ring-dot
foulard is in mauve color with a white
dot. The wide taffeta collar is In
plain mauve and is finished at the
front with a little cravat bow Of the
fouiard. There is no attempt at dec
grafton in this model. The three half

with small embroidered scaliops and
the flower design, appearing on the
waist elsewhere, is repeated here. The
collar is wired with the finest of wire
to support it at the back.
A waist cut on somewhat similar
lines and made of figured wolfe is
shown in the second picture. In this.
model all seams are joined with a pip
ing of cord covered with the material.
There is a vest of plain white net and
a collar of net and lace. Pearl but
tons fasten the vest and small bows
of satin, matching the flower in the
voile, add pretty color note and
smart finish.
Both these models are finished at
the waist line with a narrow belt
which sets under the skirt. There is.
very little work on the blouse of wolfe
but the daintiness of the fabric, show
ing lavender flowers on white ground
and the fineness OF the plain net in
vest and collar, produce an effect of
elegance almost equal to that in the
elaborate blouse of organdy.

The skirt is longer than 1t appears
In the picture, measuring about q

shoulder, and the skirt from waist

The wide, black velvet belt is al
new item in style for little girls. It
drops below the waist line at the left

without ends.
