upon wearing them in a sling; some
go out, spin around a little and, with

Monday night for his home, via Jack

Louisiana a most enthusiastic admirer
of New Orleans and sreat believer
in the future of the South, and espe-
cially of Louisiana. He expressed
himself as enchanted with the wei
come he received everywhere during
his too short visit. lie appreciated
meeting Mayor Behrman and Superin-
tendent of Police J. Reynolds, and en-
jOyed their conversation explaining
how our city is governed and kept to

Very Rev. Father Larkin gave a
luncheon Sunday in honor of Father
Mccarthy, at which were present RI
Rev. Bishop Gum, Fathers Jeanmard,
WynhOven, Stenmans and Kava-
naugh. All expressed themselves as
charmed with Father McCarthy's per-
sonality and wished him Godspeed in
his extensive field of labor.
The Rt Rev. Bishop was at his best
last Sunday and most interesting was
he. He gave a very complete descrip-
ton of that nearly disastrous ban.
quet in Chicago. He was there and
was i'll, and dangerously so for some
time. II was sight that beggars de-
scription to see so many dignified men
writing in pain, being carried out
one after another, and laid out in
rows on the floors of this stylish club.
IL was a long time before il dawned
upon those present what had really
happened. and it was lucky that sew
eral physicians were on the scene and
administered the proper remedies at
once. for some fatalities would have
occurred. Bishop Gum believes as
also do the Chicago papers. that this
quasi diabolical plot was the work of
an anarchist, and not of a religions
fanatic.

PROF. EUGENE KNOX.

Wallace Eugene Knox was born on
q farm near Gurnee, ILL.,, Nov. II, 1872
He was anything but interested in the
art of public speaking when a scholar
In the little country schoolhouse where
he received his early educational train
ing, for he played hockey on the Fri
day afternoons when he was supposed
to take part In speaking pieces"
However, when he outgrew the grades
and was sent to the county seat. Wau-
kegan, ILL.,, to enter high school, 1t was
not so easy to play hooky, and finally
he had to "face the music" at rhetori-
Gals. His dormant talent was discov-
cred upon his first appearance before
the high school students, and he
more than surprised himself when he
brought down the house" with ne
gro dialect sketch. This encouraged
him, and he was ever afterward more
than anxious to read.
During his high school days he was
prominent in the declamatOry contests
and won first prize against strong op-
position. About this time DR.. Edward
Amherst OFT became pastor Of the
Christian church In Waukegan and
soon after was made dean of the
school Of oratory at Drake university.
Through him Mr.. Knox became seri-
ously interested In expression as a
chosen profession. He went to Des
Moines at the beginning of the school
year and commenced his studies under
Professor OFT. He specialized in i'm
personation and finished his course
with honors.
For six years he Travelled as reader
with concert companies and quartets
making for himself lasting reputa-
ton. He then left the platform and
began teaching expression. His first
work was done as dean Of oratory In
the University Of Puget Sound. which
position he held for six years. How
ever, he did not give up public read
ing, for he filled engagements at week
ends in vacation periods, travelling ex-
tensively over the west and in Canada.
He was called to the dictatorship Of
the school Of oratory and expression
of the Nebraskan Wesleyan university
in 1910, where he has been for the
past six years. The school under his
management has attained position
among the very best In the middle
west.
