Press dispatches, from Austin,
Texas, inform us that a man named
Shillady was recently taken from his
hotel in that city and rather rough
ly handled, being given Il severe
beating. and being told to make
himself scarce, and quickly. in the
State Of Texas.
Shillady's oTense was that he was
meeting with, organizing and preach
ing to the negroes Of Texas the doc
trine Of social equality, and he made
himself very abnoxious to the COM
munity, with the result that he was
given IAN urgent invitation" to alb
sent himself from Texas soil. with
the further injunction that it would
be well for him to make his abs .nce
permanent
Such cases are, Of course, regret
table, but they are also natural con-
sequences of the folly Of few mis-
guided jersons who misunderstood
conditions and do not realize the
peril contained in the advocacy OF
social equality" between the races
in this country. At the moment all
such gain the hatred Of the white
people, and within short time, af-
ter negroes have had time to think
negroes themselves is no less strong
than the hatred OF the whites. And
the misguided fools who preach
social equality" between the races
get The worst OF he bargain every
time.
Shillady was, a..d is. the sccre-
tary OF the National ..G3rc.ation or
the Advancement OF the COlOrcd

any, and let the problems Of the

LYCEJM THE,ATER.

One of the most veri1e photoplays seen here in many months, is Cecil B. De Miles superb production of The Squaw Man. which is on view at the Lyceum the first half of this week. Many probably recall the plot how Jim Wynnegate, to save his
 cousins reputation, because of his re-
 gard for the latter's wife, assumes guilt for a crime committed by his
 relative and leaves his ancestral
 home in England for a ranch in
 Wyoming. There it will be recalled
 he is saved from death by the hands of a gunfghter, by a girl of the Ute Indian tribe, and in gratitude finally marries her. Later, when the cousin
 is killed and his widow and others appear at the ranch, Jim is grief stricken. But his Indian wife-by marrying whom he has earned the title of "SquaW Man"-m burning be- cause her little boy is to be reared as a white man, ends her life. Thus, though overcome with grief at the death of the little mother," Jim sees possible prospect of future hap piness with the woman he really loves. This is in every respect a de-

FOX'S THEATER.

William Farnum, in "The "il7 Trail," is the feature at Fox's thea 'el tonight. Mr. Farnum, interpreter oA romantic roles, has an entirely sat factory medium in the William oA picture, "The Jungle Trail.' me pi"9
 abounds in thrills of the Farnum So' and is steeped in the atmosphere O. the jungle. There is a strong ana predominate love theme running through '"The Jungle Trail" based on the rivalry of two New Workers for the hand of a young woman. The action, however, after the first two scenes, is largely in Africa, and the thrills are introduced in conseQuence of the attempts made on the lite ol the hero of the story. Mir. Farnuhl is ably supported by large cast and the photography of the picture IS one of it's features. Mr. Farnum has oc- CaSiOn to use his tremendous strength to good advantage in "Thc Juhsle Trail," and in several fights in WAlch he participates this strength seems al- mOst superhuman. Two new sefleS or film are also offered at toXS th1S Week--The Screen Monolog and The Outing Chester Series. The former is a collection of witty quips from the leading newspapers of the world and proves very amusing. The Chester Outings are photographed under the auspices of Outing Magazine and are unusually excellent offerings of out door photography. The latest Pathe News and Pathc Comedy complete the film entertainmen and four acts of Fox vaudeville, consisting of John- son and Johnson, colOred comedians; Dlck Thomas, monolOGist; Mardo and Lorenze, singers and dancers, and a novelty act entitled What a Woman Can Do,' which consists of a little singing, some excellent dancing, few limitations and sharpshooting.

He is not one of the stereotype mind readers that we have seen so often. but is billed as a Psychic Clairandient and claims to be the greatest living reader of human destiny. He makes an interesting and impressing address after which his assistants go through the audience gathering up the questions that are written and in full view of the aud fence, by the aid of a crystal ball he answers the questions. gives advice, tells of interesting events that are to happen and generally astonshes with his advice and humor. Dr. Harmon made good at the matinee yesterday and will more than please during the remainder of his engagement here. He will answer any question asked him free of charge.

if You Need a Medicine
 YOuShouId Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why it is that so many products that are extensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon for gotten? The reason is plain-the article did not fulfil the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. A medi- cinal preparation that has real cura- tive value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited, to those who are in need of it.
 prominent druggist says 'Take for example pr. kilmer's Swamp Root, preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost every case it shows excellent results, as many of my customers testify. No other kid ney remedy has so large q sale"
 According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, tEe success of Dr. kilmer's Swamp Root ia due to the fact so many people claim. that it fulfls almost every wish i'll oTcr- coming kidney, liver aud bladder ailments, corrects urinary troubles and neutralizes the "r!c Nc.d which causes rheumatism.

NOTHING TO DO.

(Bv Melicent Humason Lee, Berlin)
 It is the lament of some people in
 this world that they have nothing to
 do. Nothing to do. When they
 sweep the veranda in early morning,
 what do they see on the grapevine?
 A beetle What do they do with it? Exclaim, "Ugh!" and brush it off with
 a broom. It never occurs to this par ticular brand of people to take the beetle in their little white hands and look him up in their insect hook! Perhaps they have no. insect book! So the Pelidnota punctata lies humil- lated in the dirt, it's interesting his tory and habits unknown to such as they.
 At noon, as they sip their tea, they hear a long-continued trill on the up permost boughS of tree-a1lanthuS tree, hickory tree, mulberry tree-all are alike to them. This particular trll issues from an apple tree, how ever. They know that and they wear ily say, All day l hear that trill, all l night I hear that trill; it is so tire ] some. I wonder what it can be- And l so they wonder and wonder and won der, and still they are wondering, and l will wonder until the end.

 Her tone expressed warm appre- ciation of her hostess, and I saw MT. Stockbridge's car q few minutes later, gratitude. The old feeling of pity for both him and the woman next came over me. How stanchly they were playing the game of honor and

3. Of Beethoven. and the wonderfully
rhythmic and highly cclored symphonic
suite "Scheherazade," of Rimsky Kor :
sakoff. Both were finely performed,
both with regard to tone and shading,
and all the numerous solo instruments
Of the last named number covered them =
selves with glory.
The soloist of the concert was Thad
deus Rich, concertmaster of the orches =
ira, who played the ID minor concerto
for violin Of Vieuxtemps. Mr.. Rich
played with his usual beauty Of tone
and sureness of intonation. The con
certo is not one of the greatest in the
accompaniment. but it is thoroughly
violinistic and pretty we'll exhausts the
technical possibilities of the instrument
although it makes no great demands oi
sentiment or intellect. either from player
or hearers. Mr.. Rich was warmly ap
plauded after his fine rendition of the
concerto.
