The Way to Do II.

And Christmas less than one
month awayi But there's no
need to worry. A day or two
at Woodward & Lothrop's and
your Christmas problems are
settled to your satisfaction.
Many a forehanded woman
plans to spend a whole day in
the store before the rush be-
gins. A carefully prepared list,
an early start; a glance at the
arrangement of floors, so as not
to retrsce your steps; courteous
salespeople to produce "the very
thing" a dainty, restful lunch in
the attractive restaurant, and
then the leisurely finish of the
days errands. It's more like a
pleasure jaunt than the drudg-
cry of shopping.
Around the World in a Day.
If one should go around the
world with Christmas in mind
she would pick up all manner
of curios to delight friends.
That's what the buyers of
Woodward & Lothrop have
done-searched all lands for the
treasures of art and handicraft
the rare marbles and bronzes
from Italy, the wonderful Clois-
some and Carved Ivory from
China; the exquisite Imperial
Nippon and Satsuma ware from
Japan; the fine Leather Goods
from Vienna and Russia; the ia
nous Watches from Switzer-
land; the quaint Dutch ware
from Holland; the Character
Dolls and Mechanical Toys
from Germany; the high art
Jewelry, Fans and Opera Bags
from Paris; the Handmade
Basketry from all Europe; the
esthetic novelties from the Lib
erty House in London; the Cut
Glass from our own country;
the characteristic work of all
people-a miniature worlds
fair.

prevent Tuberculosis"

Prevent tuberculosis"
With these words as a text the preach
ers Of all the nation yesterday voiced a
plea to the people OF the United States
to Join the battle forces waging war
against the great white plague. 1t was
plea with a personal note-a plea from
the pastor to each man, woman and child
In his flock.
The plea was uttered in churches Of all
creeds and coIors. 1t was spoken from
thousands Of pulpits and heard by hun
dreds of thousands in pews.
Tuberculosis Sunday.
The day was known as tuberculosis
Sunday, the first Sabbath after Thanks
giving set aside each year for the union
OF the plea against tuberculosis with the
preaching of the gospel. The nationwide
plea is designed to stimulate interest In
the sale of the Christmas seals. These
seals are used to raise money with which
to fight the plague.
tuberculosis Sunday was originated
four years ago by the National Society
for the Prevention Of tuberculosis, with
headquarters in New York. The program
is carried out in each city through local
societies
In this city the District Association for
the Prevention of tuberculosis arranged
plans for the day. In Washington the
pastors OF nearly fifty churches gave
prevent tuberculosis" talks at morning
or evening services. They had facts and
figures of q rather startling nature with
which to bolster their plea. Here are
some OF these facts and figures:
More than 10000 persons died from
tuberculosis in the United States last
year.
Records kept Of the deaths of members
OF ffty-four churches In Washington
showed that per cent died from tuber-
culosis.
Church Records EIsewhere.
Records made by churches in other
cities showed that from 10 to L per cent
of church members died from tubercu-
losis
More than 500 residents Of Washington
died from tuberculosis last year, an
average OF more than two persons each
day.

lBy Telegraph to The Tribune.

Troy, n. Y. Oct. 15.-Govefnor

ing which he made eleven speeches, To-
night at Troy before big audience
at Harmony Hall. He took up the
question OF District Attorney Whit'
man, "What about Bensel :" d,
"Bensel," he said, "has been elected
to his present position by the people
and as constitutional officer OF the
state / have no more power over MN
than Mr. Whitman himself. III he
knows anything about Bensel he ought
70 indict him; yes. and convict nm
"There have been too many indict-
ments without convictions. and II he
knows of any illegal acts of NJ. Ben
sci committed outside Of New YORK
County he should turn the evidence
over TO me or to the District Attorney
of the county in which the acts were
alleged to have been committed, and II
that District Attorney fails to do his

GLYNN FAILS In
HENNESSY TRUCE
Gibboney Dinner No Democratic
Love Feast - Tammany
CHALLENGED Again.

The leaders of the so-called Wilson
Democrats. who stood behind John A.
Hennessy in his fight against Governor
Glynn for the Democratic nomination
for Governor in the primaries, gave a
dinner to Stuart G. Gibboney, the man
ager of the Hennessy campaign, at the
National Democratic Club last night.
A few of those who were behind the
dinner hoped that ratification of
Governor Glynn and the rest of the
Democratic ticket would be made, but
their hopes were blighted several hours
before the diners sat down.
A statement issued by Gustavus A.
Rogers, one of the men who arranged
the affair, while the dinner was on, at
tackled Charles f. Murphy's leadership,
but made no mention Of Governor
Glynn.
Mr. Rogers made the following state
ment when he handed the statement to
the assembled newspaper men at the
club:
"The fair construction to be placed
on the statement is that every Demo-
crat who voted for John A. Hennessy
may vote according to the dictates of
his conscience when it comes to Elec-
tion Day"
Among those present were John A.
Hennessy, Manton Wyvell, secretary to
Mr.. Bryan; John X. Sague, Daniel j.
Dugan, Henry 7. Keith and others who
/ fought against the ticket headed by
Governor Glynn in the recent pri-
marleS.

NEW BAN PUT ON
SCHOOL GIRL CLANS
Pan-Hellenic Congress Plans to
Bar prep" Students Members
of Secret Societies.

After the many efforts Of educational
authorities throughout the country to
stamp out the Greek letter societies
formed by girls in high schools, with
little better result than that the socie-
ties became more secret than ever, the
Pam Hellenic Congress yesterday dealt
what is expected TO be the death blow
to these fraternities.
The congress, which held its opening
session at the Hotel McAlpin yesterday
afternoon, is composed Of delegates
from eighteen of the most important
women's college fraternities.
The ruling made by these delegates
Yesterday was that any high school girl
N the United States who joins a Greek
letter society in preparatory school.
or any girl who is at present a member
of such an organization and does not
at once resign, will not be eligible TO
membership in the Pan-Hellenic frater-
mites when she goes TO college.
The objections offered with regard 10
high school fraternities were chiefly
that young girls in Initiating the col
lege fraternities become selfish and
snobbish toward their schoolmates. The
privileges of the home and the pro-
lection provided by college fraternities
are unnecessary in preparatory schools.
because high school girls usually live
in their own homes.
The congress. which IS now holding
its thirteenth annual meeting, will con-
tinue until Saturday at Che McAlpin.
Its object will be to make wOmen's fra
ternities useful in the Improvement Of
social and scholarship standards in the
collegeg -. ....-.

lege Mems League greeted the Republi-
can candidate for Governor at their
headquarters, 10 East 4lst st., at 8
o'clock last night. William ziegler, jr.'
president, introduced District Attorney

"You can't get away from it," said /.

a Tammany Hall heller, and our hght
is against Tammany Hall. incidentally,
we are putting Whitman into the Gov
ernor's chair"
Rapping Mayor Mitchell and other in
dependent Democrats, Mr.. Whitman
said it was amusing to him to see GER
tain people and organizations who up
10 two weeks ago had pounded Gov
ernor Glynn saying now that what all
decent citizenship had been opposed to
must be indorsed."

Due at Pier Is, East River, at .
o'clock, there were more than 1orty
persons there at that time to meet the
Metapan. When word was received Dy
Superintendent Cadmus OF the Uniteu
Fruit Company that the vessel had
come to grief, many of the Assembled
relatives and friends Of the passengers
became nervous. Shortly after the re-
ceipt Of the first message Mr.. Cadmus
received another stating that the snip
had been grounded and all passengers
taken off in safety.
Captain Spencer, the third officer and
the pilot were on the Metapan's bridge
when the vessels came together. VIII
lam Logan, the second officer, was Walk
ing along the boat deck and took
charge Of the launching OF the ire
boats. The Metapan carried eight, eacn
having capacity for forty persons, but
only five were used. All OF the passen-
gers could have been cared for In TWO
boats. Captain Spencer, the cher ON
Ger, the third engineer, and all ms crew
and two quartermasters were lett on
board the grounded steamship. Inc
deck forward Of the bridge Is awash,
but her stern and midship section are
we'll out of the water. Water was pre-
vented from entering the engine room
by the forward bulkhead, and no cargo
or baggage is in danger.
In the vessels strong room IL $5OO,OOO
in gold bullion taken aboard at Saya-
nilla. The Metapan also has 10000
bags Of coffee and $4,000 punches or
bananas. If the seas remain calm she
can be salved.
Among the travellers on the Metapan
were three Frenchmen and eleven Eng
lishmen who are on their way 10
volunteer with their respective gov
ernments. One of these was Andre
Bordes. son of the French nitrate king
of Valparaiso. Bordes, who is twenty,
is exceedingly wealthy, but he decided
to hasten to France and offer his ser
vices. His father, who is the cher
owner Of the nitrate company OF
Bordes Freres, is the owner Of forty
eight sailing vessels engaged in the nj
trate trade.
Although the Metapan is in no APP
parent danger, the derelict destroyer
Seneca steamed down TO her last night,
and will stand by until the vessel Is
patched up and hauled into port.
Twenty members of the crew came up
to the city last night on the Dalzell tug
+. S. Atwood. chartered by the New
York newspapers.
The tug also brought in William
Logan, the second officer; K. Schwartz.
the purser. and DR. Moore, the ships
surgeon Two of the Metapan's life
boats. which had been used in landing
passengers on the dredge Atlantis. were
towed up to the city by the Atwood.
