Mary Elizabeth St. John

After an illness of only a few
days, Mary Elizabeth, the little
six-year-old daughter of Mr.. w.
H. st. John, died at the family
residence on Walnut street Tues
day night, surrounded by the
distressed father, brothers and
little sisters. The little child had
been sick from a catarrhal affec-
ton and blood poison followed,
and death soon brought relief
from her suffering.
Mary Elizabeth entered school
in September, and was a bright,
dutlful and promising pupil.
Having lost her mother two years
ago, the father has nursed with
tender care his little family, and
each held his heart by the strong
est ties of love and sympathy. In
his devotion he has cared for his
little ones with every regard for
their happiness and comfort.
Death now robs him of one of
his treasures and he can only
find consolation in the promise
that the little one has joined the
wife and mother in a land where
there is no sickness, sorrow or
death.
The funeral services were con-
Quoted Wednesday afternoon
from the residence by Rev. O.
W. Bradley. Many little friends,
and friends of the family, were
present and brought lovely floral
offerings which were laid upon
the little grnve in Glenwood Gem
etery.

spaces of the country have been sup plemented by the feverish urban areas, the whole nature of our political ques- hons has not been altered.
 They have ceased to be legal Ques- tions. They have more and more be- come social questions, questions with regard to the relations of human be- ings to one another. not merely their legal relations, but their moral and spiritual relations to one another. And it has been most characteristic of American life in the last few dec ades. and as these questions have as- stunned greater and greater promin- ence, the movement which this asso- ciation represents has gathered cumu- lative force. So that, if anybody asks himself, What does this gathering force mean, if he knows anything about the history of t'le country, he knows that 1t means something that has not only come to stay. but has come with conquering power. Have Seen Visions of Duty
 T got "a little impatient sometimes about the discussion of the channels and methods by which it is to pre- vail. It is going to prevail, and that is a very superficial and ignorant view of it which attributes it to mere social unrest.
 T have not come to ask you to be patient, because you have been. but to congratulate you that there was force behind you that will beyond any peradventure be triumphant, and for which you can afford little while to wait.'

LITHOGRAPHY

The first successful example of the lithographic art was produced 12O years ago to-day by Alloys SenefeIder, a Bavarian, who produced a piece of music printed by this process. Sene- fielder was composer, but he was too poor to bear the cost of having his works published. He then began to experiment with the hope. of discov- ering some cheap method by which he could do the printing himself. The Photographic process was suggested to him by his having made for his mother a memorandum of clothes to be sent to the washerwoman. He carelessly wrote this memorandum on a slab of stone, intending to copy it. As the stone lay before him he thought of trying the effect of applying printers ink to the lines and thus take an inn pression. The experiment led to oth- CTS, and in 1796 Senefelder produced a. piece of music from lines drawn in slight relief on a slab of stone. The inventor obtained patent for his pro- cess in several of the German states, and labored to extend his art through out Europe: Everywhere 1t wet with favor, especially in France, and ar lists of distinction labored to perfect the Photographic art. It was intro duced into America in 1921, when a lithographic plant was established in New York.

CALIFORNIA;
 NATIVE SONS

Admission Day, California's own holiday. will be celebrated today by the Native Sons of the Golden West, assisted by vast multitude of other Californians who did not have the good fortune to be born in the Sun set State, but who are none the less enthusiastic worshippers at her golden shrine. For a few hours they will forget the yellow peril which is tn fly in the ointment of California bliss, and devote themselves to honoring the brave pioneers who carried the Stars and Stripes to the Golden West and drove out the "greasers." Many of these pioneers were gentlemen whose histories would not bear close inspection, and whose occupations were of kind drowned upon by the present generation, but time has cast a glamor over all of them.
 The Order of the Native Sons of the Golden West, which is the handspring was launched in San Francisco in 1875. California Parlor No. 1 cele- brated the twenty-fifth anniversary of the admission of California on Sept g, 1875, and established a pre-
 
 since. Only a few are left of those who marched in the first parade o1 the Native Sons, and these ancients now receive the homage of all thei1 younger comrades.
 The grand parlor" of the Native Sons was organized in 1878, wher | there were three parlors in exist. ence. Since then the order has growr rapidly in numbers and influence Many of the leaders in all lines of ac- tivity in California are members o1 the order. The Native Sons are the descendants of men who transformed an undeveloped, barbarous country into one of the richest of American | commonwealtfs, and they have inner | ited many of the stern qualities o | the pioneers. The Native Sons have been accused of comprising an aris tocracy, but, if so, they are an aristoc racy of democracy. In time to come the softening process of civilization may transform the "Sons' into snobs with affectations of social superiorit, and blue blood. At present they have but a natural pride in being the des | cendants of red-blooded "hombres' who played man-size roles in ote O. the most romantic eras in American history.

A PRISONER OF THE MOVIE

Sir Edward Marsh Merewether, the British colonial administrator who was appointed governor of the British Leeward Islands last February, was born fifty-eight years ago today. Sir Edward and Lady Merewether were among the passengers on board the British steamer Appam, which was captured by the German raider Move and taken into Hampton roads by a German prize crew early this year. On his return to England after this adventure Sir Edward received the appointment as governor of the Lee ward Islands, and King Georg also conferred upon him the insignia of Knight Commander of St. Michael and St. George.
 Sir Edwards father was the fam ous soldier, General Sir w. L. Mere wether. After completing his educa- ton at Harrow and Wren's, young Merewether took part in a competi- tive examination which won for him an appointment as a cadet in tne civil service of the Straits Settlements. It was while employed in that distant corner of the world that he met and married Miss Honoria Clementina Mary Braddell, whose father was then attorney-genera1 of the Straits Set dement's. In later years Sir Edward held various appointments, twice act ing as resident councillor at Malacca and in 1901 he was appointed Brit ish resident at Selangor. The follow ing year he became lieutenant-gover- nor and chief secretary to the gov ernment of Malta, where he remain ed several years. His next appoint ment was as governor of Sierra Leone, a British possession on the west coast of Africa. He had just retired from the post when the Appam, on which he was a passenger was captured by the German raider.

A large display of smart styles
 now in readiness

That is what style should be-to express in the >happiest fashion one's own individ- uality. A severe band of elegant ribbon, a wide crush of richest satin, ''cocarde" of stiff moire, bit of silver braid, brim edged with fur, an ornament of gilt or sil- yer. to relieve the sombreness of dark vel vet all are captivating.
 Deep Violet for September For early fall the brimned hats and toques of violet or royal purple attract. Violet is color for autumn sunshine.

SuFfRAGISTS CHEER WILSON PREDICTION
 OF CERTAIN VICTORY
(Continued from Page 4) Could Run Any Convention.

"There was a time when nobody put a lawyer could know enough 70 run the government of the United states, and a distinguished English pubiiclst once remarked, speaking of the com plexity of the American government that it was no proof of the excellence of the American Constitution that IL had been successfully operated, De- cause the Americans could run any constitution. But there have been a great many technical difficulties In running it. :.
 And then something happened. A great question arose in this country which. though complicated with legal elements, was at bottom a human question and nothing but a question of humanity. That was the slavery question. And is it not significant that it was then, and then for the first time, that women became prom inent in politics in America? Not many women. Those prominent in that day are so few that you can all most name them in a brief catalogue, but nevertheless they then began to play a part in writing mot only, but in public speech. which was very novel part for women to play iu, Amer ica. %
 And after the Civil War had settled some of what seemed to be the mos, difficult legal questions of our system the life of the nation began not only to unfold, but to accumulate. Life ir the United States was 8 comparatively simple matter at the time of the Civi War. There was none of that under. ground struggle which is now so man ifest to those who look only little way beneath the surface.
