AS the lights went down hush of
expectancy settled over the audience
at the theater. Most of the faces
were alight with anticipation, but the
old man and women in the back seats
of the first balcony looked very grave.

The stage was the acme of all that
was vilest in the world. They had
come up to town, without announcing
their intention, and were now await,
ing the rising of the curtain upon the
first act of ''The Merchant of Venice"
Portfa does not appear at the be-
ginning of that play. And before she
had come on the stage the old people
were staring in wonder at the mag
niicence of the setting. More than
that in place Of the immortality
which they had expected to find in
culcated, they found story, so grip
ping, so pathetic, and withal so true
that they were spellbound.
But when Portia appeared they
leaned forward with revival of their
old terror. Portia was Lucy!-Miss
Margaret Lake, as she was billed: 1t
was true, then!
The old woman pressed her hus-
bands hand again.
'.cWill, did you see?" she said in
mournful tones.
He nodded. But the look on his
face was not so sombre and depressed
as his wife had expected.
Mary" he exclaimed, turning
round in his seat, "do you know they
are applauding her!-Lucy"
There was, almost an expression of
pride, but there was also bewilder-
ment. His Lucy! Their little girl!
How could this be she!
"Sh-sh!"' said those about them
warningly, as the old couple whis-
pered together.
So the play went on toward its dra-
matte finale. And now William Null
Inns and his wife were following the
developments with bated breath. And
their lifelong horror of the stage was
forgotten. And when the great trial
scene came on, and Shylock sharpen
ed his knife, and things looked bad
for his enemy, tears came into their
eyes.

NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY
The First United States Senator from Neveda

James W. Nye, who with William
Stewart was one of the first repre-
sentatives from Nevada in the United
States Senate after that territory had
been created into State, was a man
of singularly attractive personality.
Physically he resembled somewhat
Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll, although
he was not quite so tall. The facial
resemblance was strong and was es-
pecially noticeable when Senator Nye
was speaking.
He was a man of infinite wit. He
sometimes deplored the mastery over
him of his sense of humor. He was
one of the most effective of the cam
paign speakers of his time, although
much the greater part of his service
of that sort was in the East. He did
not have much opportunity for pub
lie speaking while he was citizen
of Nevada.
Senator Nye was native of Cen
trail New York, and for some years
practiced law in the village of Ham
ilton. He was a devoted friend of
William II. Seward. who lived nearby
at Auburn. When Nye was appointed
Governor Of Nevada by President Lin
coin the belief prevailed among the
Republicans of New York State that
he owed that appointment to the rec
ommendation of his long time friend,
Secretary Seward.
In one of the political campaigns of
Connecticut, in the late sos, Senator
Nye took an active part and was the
guest of his friend, the late N. d.
Sperry, of New Haven, who after
ward served long time in Congress
and who in his last year of service
was the oldest member of the House.
At that time Senator Nye said to

From the foregoing quotations>it Is

Ultimate offspring of commerce and

markets is the underlying cause of
wars, wars to a great extent are de-

prices, opportunities to unload rotten
food and clothing on the war market

for munitions of war, gunpowder,
battleships, cannons, uniforms, drugs,

shoes and a thousand other things.

Gutter Babies.

From the Chicago Tribune
The "gutter babies of London are
becoming immune to ordinary
diseases, according to the annual
health report of the worlds greatest
city. Conditions that would be death
to other children, says the report,
leave the infants in London's worst
slums unaffected. They not only man
age to exist, they even thrive under
these conditions.
This immunity of the gutter babies
does not cheer the British health au-
thorities, however, for 1t does not
mitigate the problems of the slums in
the least. The baby who from the
moment it was born has been exposed
to circumstances that tougher" IL,
that give it greater resisting power TO
disease caused by filth and insanitary
living, is the sort of a baby that 10
likely to be tough mentally and NOR
ally as well.
Progress and civilization have been
in the direction away from-the tough
ening process. We are today not try
ing to harden people to physical dis
ease. We are not trying to accustom
them to typhoid, for instance we
realize that progress lies in the direc-
tion of wedding out typhoid and OF
preventing disease. The immunity OF
slum babies in London and in all other
cities where slums are prevalent may
be looked upon as one of the freaks
of nature, but it must have no erect
whatever on society's attitude toward
sIums. The war against unhealthy
congestion and filthy tenements IN
modern cities must go on unapated.
Immunity toward slum conditions no
civilized people can afford TO cuiti-
vate.

Dear Sir: FIN view of the inconceiv-

hooves us to investigate the causes
of this turmoil, In order to avoid the
possibility of a repetition of the
wholesale butchery taking place in

this end, we may we'll begin by quot
ing some of the worlds best qualined
authorities on the subject.
Fred d. Grant: 81 do not know OF
a war for the last 800 years that was
caused by a soldier or by a soldiers

causes. Without a single exception
all wars are wars for trade. They
are all caused by bankers, merchants

Noted Women Whose Birthday Is Yours
By MARY MARSHALL.
SEPTEMB 1
Marguerite BIessington
Copyrighted 1914.

Sometimes it is a distinction to be
homely. Such was the case of Mar
lguerite Blessington, who as child was
known simply as the plain member"
of a family of seven other remarkably
fine looking children. Marguerite was
born in Ireland in 1882 Her father,
who was known locally as "Shiver the
Frills" because of his lace ruffies
white buckskins, top boots and white
cravats, kept his family in state of
Generalization and general terror.
AT fourteen and half, Marguerite,
In spite of her plainness, received an
offer of marriage from an English
army officer. He was one of many
suitors and her family forced her
against her will to accept him. Margu-
erite consented reluctantly, but when
soon after the marriage he was called
from Ireland back to England, the
child-wife refused to go with him.
BY the time the plain member"
of the family had reached the age
of eighteen she had turned out to
| be a great beauty. Because of her
early marriage and her separation
! from her husband she had remained
at home. But about this time her for
mer husband died and within four
months of his death she was married
to the Earl of Blessington, a man
seven years her senior, who possessed
an income of thirty thousand pounds

French National Museum.

The Musee Carnavalet, of Paris is
so seldom frequented by Americans,
yet it is of vast interest. 1t is also
known as the National Museum, for
it contains objects pertaining to the
history of France, and especially of
the French revolution. The sacred
ness of antiquity clings to the build
ing itself. which was begun in 1874,
and enlarged in 1860 by Mansart, the
famous architect of Louis XIV. In
1877 it became the home of Nine. de
Levigne, who lived there for eighteen
years, and after whom the street is
named that faces the principal en-
trance Among the contents of this
museum are fragments and statues
from noted old buildings which no
longer exist. There is also a weird
portrait done in wax of Henry Nv.
made the day after his assassination,
and an autograph order from Louis
XVI. for the defenders of the
Tuileries to cease firingi Things of
historic interest are numerous, but
none more sanguinary than the copy
of the constitution of 1893 bound in
human skin.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER ?. 1914.

Good and evil influences conflict to-
day, according to the reading of as
trologers. Jupiter rules with a power
strongly benefic, while Uranus and
Saturn are adverse. y
Under the kindly sway of Jupiter
judges, lawyers, dignitaries of church
and state and all who are interested
in higher education should greatly
benefit.
The government is most suspicious
for business enterprise of every sort.
Merchants should find the conditions
especially good for pushing corpmer-
cial ventures of large scope.
1t is a time especially stimulating
to those who depend upon muscular
energy. Athletes are under a for
tunate guidance today.
There is sign interpreted as favor
able for the ambitions of United
States senator's who are independent
in their views. The old, however, are
subject to influences held to be I'M
lucky.
Since Uranus is believed to govern
the psychic powers the adverse as
pect of the planet Is supposed to be
most unpleasant in its influence upon
the mind. The aspect is said to
operate to cause irritability, restless
ness and discomfort. While the rule
prevails domestic relations are likely
to be strained and natives (persons
born when the Sun was in Aquarius)
should be especially guarded In their
conduct.

With the Earl of Blessington Mar
guerite went to- live in great state
IN London and their house became
the centre of all brilliant society of
the day. Lord Byron was among
Marguerite's most brilliant admirers
and the artist Lawrence was hon
ored to paint her portrait.
The earl died before many years
had passed and Marguerite found, to
her surprise, that the estate had been
considerably depleted. But Marquee
rite was unwilling to lower the stand
ard of her living. She was used to
the elegance of being countess and
she refused to go back to her old
poverty. Accordingly she took to
writing. For nearly twenty years
after this she earned from ten tn
fifteen thousand dollars year with
her pen. But her annual expenses
were twenty thousand dollars-a state
of affairs which kept her in perpetual
Indebtedness. The brilliant society of
the countess's house-known as Gore
house-continued to assemble. The

daughter, took up his residence

che orchard

1t was years ago, and no one knows
Just who planted the orchard rows,
Bedded and 6fned the tender feet
OF the Twenty Ounce and Golden Sweet.
And the struggling clan whose branches meet
Over Pomonas little aises.
A tumbe-down wall and an old rail fence
Guard the orchard with poor pretense;
And pferers, footed and winged, come there
Even in winter when boughs bare,
And the nuthatch hunts for his meagre share,
Peering and pecking, this way and that
First up, then down, like an acrobat.
Deer stroll in from the mountain pass
Gratefully nosing the buried treat
OF fruit, frost bitten, and brown and sweet,
Brought to light by their trampng feet,
And UP where weathering crabapples sling,
The grosbeaks cavil and feast and sing
All winter long to the Golden Sweet
And the Twenty Ounce and the trees that meet,
Neglected and old in this wild retreat
Come bird and beast in their need akin,
And make the old orchard their wayside inn.
