When the master was about to Jump
on the team Snowfall stopped him
and called his attention to the little
kitten and told him the story he had
just heard His master agreed with
SNOWFALL that something ought to be
done, and as it was about lunch time
they agreed to take the kitten on to
the wagon and carry him along to
the place where SNOWFALL got his usual
saucer of milk. When Snowfall got
his milk the little kitten got a saucer,
too, and he ate it as If he had never
had anything good before.
Tastes pretty good, don't it," said
Snowfall as he smoothed his mustache
little after he had finished Wont

said he would and finished another
saucer almost as quickly as he had the
first one.
While the kitten was drinking the
second saucer SNOWFALL was over in
the corner talking with his master.
and as the kitten finished Snowfall
said to him: 81 have decided to take
you along with me to my home out
In the country If you would like to CO."
The kitten was quick to say that he
would, and so SNOWFALL helped him to
get upon the seat of the wagon, his
master took a corner of the horse
blanket and wrapped it around him,
and so with Snowfall close beside
him, Midnight for that was what
Snowfall had already named him be-

GEO. EVANS DEAD
Popular Minstrel Man and
Composer a Cancer Victim.
Wrote That Song, Gin the Good
Old Summer Time."

Baltimore. Md, March George
("Honey Boy') Evans, originator of
the syncopated coon song and one of
the best known black faced minstrel
men in the world, died here Friday
in the Union Protestant hospital.
Evans had been ailing with cancer
of the stomach for more than a year.
Last summer following a violent
period of the ravages of the disease
the minstrel man was thought to be
dying, but he rallied and a few weeks
later surprised his friends by appear
ing on Broadway, a mere shadow of
his former self, but still cheerful and
hopeful Improvement in his condi-
ton continued and Evans prepared for
his annual tour, Lately he was
stricken again and at intervals was
obliged to give way to a substitute in
his own minstrel show. few days
ago he was removed to the hospital.
Was Big Success.
Evans was one of the most success
full of modern minstrel men. He was
born in Pontotlyn, Wales, As years
ago. His first appearance on the
stage was in Balser's Music hall, Can
ton, Ohio as a member of the Column
bla Quartette. subsequently he APP
peared with a quartette in the 'tSilver
Age company and toured the country
with a number of medicine shows.
At various times he was a member
of Haverley's, Primrose & Vests and
Cleveland's Ministries, but his first big
fame came perhaps when he entered
vaudeville as a blackface monologist.
His patter was of the sure fire" va
riety and his songs rendered in a light
| tenor voice with unusual falsetto notes
| heightened his offering until usually
he held the stage for 40 or SO minutes.
'HOney Boy Title
He became known as the Honey
Boy" after writing the song ''I'l Be
True to My Honey Boy one of the
best coon songs of a period when that
style of ditty was first coming into
popularity. In rapid succession he
| wrote other songs that attained wide
| spread popularity, one of them, I'm
the Good Old Summer Time" being
| the medium by which Blanche Ring
| won her first Broadway prominence
| Still other well known songs from his
pen were standing on the Corner,
Wasn't Meaning Any Harm" Come,
Take a Trip in My Airship' and
Down Where the Watermelon
Grows"
In 1908 Conan and Harris organ
| lied the Honey Boy Ministries, of
which Evans was the head The or
ganization remained gu tour for three
years under Conan and Harriss man
| agement and then was taken over by
| Evans, who continued on tour success
| fully season after season.

DO YOU FEEL SLUGGISH?

It is probable that most chronic consti- patton is due to failure to teach and in- sist upon regularity of habits during childhood
 Constipation quickly contaminates the blood, deranges the nervous system and upsets the entire health. The victim be- comes drowsy, irritable, restless, has bad dreams and is mentally and physically sluggish.
 In the new laxative, Pinklets, is pre- sented a dainty, sugar-coated granule, that is free from unpleasant effects, does not upset the stomach nor gripe but sim- ply gives nature the needed assistance.

Method of Gaining Votes For Women Causes Split at Convention
 Coming to Head.

Sal Francisco, Sept. 16.-The con- flict that has been threatening since the opening of the women voters con- vention being held here under the auspices of the Congressional Union for Woman suffrage, was expected to come to a head today with the re- port of the resolutions committee ap- pointed yesterday by Mrs. c. Ii. r. Belmont of New York, chairman of tho convention.
 The Congressional Union delegates stand firmly for the Susan B. An thony plan for securing equal suf- frage by amendment of the federal constitution. There is a strong fac ton il, the convention, however, that advocates leaving the matter to the individual states. This faction suf- fere1 a setback yesterday when Miss Alice Paul, national chairman of the Congressional Union, ruled that only members of the union will be al- lowed to vote on resolutions. She said, however that other delegates might submit resolutions.
