E. |. SHEAR NEAR
VICTIM OF MANIAC
FORMER RESIDENT OF DAYToNA
WAS BESIDE MAN SHOT DOWN
BY MADMAN IN BRUNSWICK,
. GEORGIA, LAST WEEK.

The running amuck in Brunswick,
Ca, last Saturday of Monroe Phillips,
said to have been insane, has local
interest through the fact that E. l..
Shear. formerly of Daytona and a SON.
in-law of Mr.. and Mrs. A. Winnie, of
Fairview avenue, was closely asso-
ciated with the tragedy, being side
by side with one of the madmans vic.
Tins when he was shot down. Mrs.
Shear wrote at once to her parents
of Mr.. Shears narrow escape, and in
later letter states that Phillips VIC
tins number six killed and 21
wounded, with three of the latter not
expected to recover. The wholesale
shooting made it necessary to call on
outside medical aid and nurses and
has cast pail of gloom over Bruins.

.ELKS' SHOW, BIGGEST
EVER, NOW READY FOR
TOMORROW EVENING
SEVERAL MEMBERS BROOKLYN
sUPERBAs TO APPEAR DUAL.
ITY FOUR AGAIN IN CHARGE
OF THE MUSIC.

When the curtain goes up on the
performance of the Elks minstrels at
the New Daytona theater tomorrow
evening a number of new faces will
be in evidence among those taking
part in the big event Of the season. A
number of Elks, members OF the
Brooklyn baseball team, have signi-
fed their willingness to take part, and
they will be there strong. A brand
new musical program has been ar
ranged for this production, and the
music will be in charge of the Quality
Four, which organization handled the
music for the first Elks' minstrel
show in such good style.
The Brooklyn boys will do their
share, though just exactly what they
will do has not as yet been decided.
Other new sketches have been arrang-
ed for the olio. A comedy sketch
with music, will close the perform
ance, while several good numbers
have been arranged to lead of the af-
ter part. Sheffel Wright will be OH
hand with his monologue. funnier
than ever. Alfred Donnelly will con-
tribute the musical number of the af-
terpiece in the way of several violin
selections. This is pleasing an
that the management Is
happy to make.
Another number of the olio will be
an eccentric dance and song specially
by Leon d. Brooks, who made so big
a hit in the first Elks' show. The
show will finish little different from
any local show ever concluded,
and this will add great deal to the
novelty of the entertainment.

The Lost Wurz.

Gregory is the kindest hearted per-

do good turn for anybody, be it
friend or stranger. The other day he
was in a Third avenue car, standing
because there was no vacant seat,
when a dignified old man rose, indi-
Gated the place he left with courteous
bow and got out at Forty-second
street. Gregory accepted the seat,
but hardly had taken 1t when he no

started, but the old man looked around
at sound Of the shouting and Gregory

through the air and lassoed the old
gentleman's silk hat, dangling over his
face, which grew purple with rage. In
the same moment the kind-hearted

strong clutch and a wall broke upon
the car. as stout German woman
lamented her lost treasure.

GOOD AND EVIL CARNATIONS
All of Us Constantly Sending Out
Thoughts According to Our Char
acter and Nature.

Man is like the wireless telegraph.
He is constantly seraing out mes
sages of peace and power, Of harmony
or discord, friend thoughts or enemy
thoughts. These messages are fivirg
from him with lightning speed in
every direction, and they arouse in
others qualities like themselves.
We are all wireless mental stations,
and are all sensitive to the things to
which we have made ourselves akin
by our thoughts and life.
If we have developed the coarser side
are sensitive to the animal vibrations
and influences that come to us; in pro-
portion as We have educated the brute
out of ourselves do we become sensi-
tive to the rays of good.
Many of us have not yet learned to
protect ourselves from the conflicting
currents of radiated thought from 9TH
ers that are playing all about US.
Thought obeys law as memorable as
that of mathematics. No love can re-
turn in exchange for a hatred thought;
but If your thought is freghted with
love, love will come back to meet its
own. To have friends we must show
ourselves friendly. To be loved, we
must love.
If the God within you-the ineffable
spirit Of love, Of charity-speaks to a
man. although he may be criminal,
the God will come out of him to meet
it; but II you fling out diabolical sa-
tanic forces-hatred, jealousy, envy

good, evil in response to evil; hatred
comes out to meet hatred, love to
meet love. because they are afinities

There has been formed in Paris
the Memorial Day Society for the
purpose of decorating the graves of
civil war veterans buried in France

year a special effort is to be made to
discover the graves of all men bur-

a good number, as the battle be-

port. Appeals have been sent broad

graves may be located and decorat-
