ELIZABETH SPENCER

Music lovers Of this city will re-
joice in the announcement that Eliz-
abeth Spencer, the famous soprano,
will give a concert at the Tabb The
atre on Thursday night, September B..
Miss Spencer returns to the con-
cert platform this year after an alb
sence of several years. The years of
silence, however, have not dimmed
the beauty of the soprano voice
which Mr.. Thomas A. Edison once
declared he thought to be the finest
in the United States. Her tones are
just as pure as ever, and the music
lovers here are indeed fortunate that
Miss Spencer has included Mt. Ster-
ling in her itinerary.
The popularity of Elizabeth Spen-
Ger may be judged from the fact that
when, after an absence of four years
from the Concert stage, it was an
nounced that she was available for
an extensive tour, her manager was
Immediately deluged with applica-
tons for her artistic services. There
is not a shadow of doubt that Miss
Spencer's concerts this season will
duplicate har extra ordinary sue
cesses of former years.
Assisting Miss Spencer at her
concert here will be Mr.. Emil Bertl,
the well known pianist and accom-
PIANIST.
This entertainment will be free
and cards of admittance may be OBJ
tanned from Mr.. Chas. II. Long, who
will be Mr.. Edison's authorized
dealer here ard will have headQUar
tiers at The Lafves Speciality Shoppe

PEOPLE GOT WHAT THEY
VOTED FOR-GOMPERS

When the American people voted
the present national administration
into office they got exactly what
they decided they wanted, Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, told large
crowd at Riverview Park, Baltimore,
fer the Labor Day celebration.
"Before that election" he said, ~
issued a statement in which I stated
the issues that were involved, so far
as labor was concerned, and I said
that the people would get exactly
what they voted for They made their
choice between the candidates and
narties and they have got what they
decided upon.
"a year ago today there was
scarcely a handful of men in this
great country out of employment.
Now there are more than five million
out of work Who will you blame
for this condition? Will you blame
the shadowy, indefinite thing of
which YOU know nothing, or will you
hold responsible those who are in
commercial, industrial and political
control of our country?"
Mr.. Gompers declared that not a
single bill, so far as he knew, had
been introduced in the present Con-
gross for the benefit of the working
people.

great majority of the Kentucky me-

MOT WHAT Is, BUT
WHAT SEEMS TO Be-

Things are not what they are. but
what they seem to be. Sweating on
golf links and tennis courts is not
sweating, but royal sport.
If your work seems like labor it
is because YOU don't enjoy it. IF
You did, your work would be your
ropal sport.
II takes just as much hard study
and hard-eaned experience to make
money in the stock market as in any
established business. You must be
willing to see it that way before you
will be successful.
Don't take tips. Don't trade ON
friendship. Don't banker after Gin
side" information. Use your own
Judgment. Keep posted-correctIy
posted. Study the market as you
would an enjoyable game like golf
and YOU will learn TO enjoy this the
greatest of all legitimate games.

BUYS HOME IN EATON,
FINDS HUMAN ASHES

EATON, O., Feb. 9.-For three years
family occupied a house here that
sheltered the ashes of a cremated wo-
man and they did not know it.
1t fell today to the lot of Mrs. Carl
Keys, who recently purchased the
property, to make the gruesome dis
covery.
Miss Ella Miller. high school teach
err here, died rather suddenly in 1907,
and her mother, Mrs. Martha Miller,
aged and eccentric, had the body ere
mated. The ashes were returned in a
sealed receptacle, and properly mark
ed, but instead of having the ashes
buried, Mrs. Miller secreted them in
an old wall-cupboard and told no one
of their presence. She died in 1917,
after which a family of the name of
Brownlett occupied the house until
Mrs. Keys bought the property. but
they never discovered the receptacle.
Mrs. Keys made the gruesome find
while renovating the old cupboard,
preparatory to moving into the house.
She and her husband came to Eaton
some time ago from Kentucky.
Relatives of the late Miller women
are being sought in order that proper
disposition of the ashes may be made.

Athletic Director
at Denison Sends
Apology to Miami

OXFORD, O., Feb. 9.-George E.
Little, director of athletics at Miami
university, has received letters from
Graduate Manager Theodore Johnson
and Coach Livingston, of DenisOn uni
versity, apologiZing for statement re-
Gently sent out from Granville to a
Columbus newspaper in which Miami
was slurringly referred to as a school
which allowed society functions to
come before athletics. The statement
grew out of the fact that Miami's bas-
ketball game with DeniSon which was
tentatively scheduled for Jan. 20, had
to be called off because Miami's eX-
anninations were moved forward one
week, and not because the annual
junior prom happened to come on the
night of Jan. 90.
Coach Livingston in his letter says
he deeply deplores the publication of
such false story; that a great injus-
tice has been done Miami, which he
considers one of the best schools in
the state. Livingston says the story
was sent out by "a rattle-brained" stu
dent who knew nothing whatever of
the situation. In future. he says, such
embarrassing statements will not get
into print, for he has arranged to have
all athletic stories for newspapers ap-
proved by the athletic department of
Denison before they are sent out.
Mr.. Johnson also expressed regret
that such an insinuating story should
have gained prominence through the
press. He calls attention to the eX-
IRENE cordially which always has eX-
listed between Denison and Miami and
hopes that these relations will not be-
come strained on account of the error
of one irresponsible student.

FIFTH AVENUE LOSES
EXCLUSIVE AIR WITH
ADVANCE OF TRADE
(By Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-Stealthy, but
steady, advances by tradesmen, cover
ing a period of more than 20 years,
have virtually broken the residential
exclusiveness of Fifth Avenue, known
the world over as the home precinct of
The Vanderbilts, Carnegies, Harrfmans,
Plants, tricks and other wealthy famil-
les of New York.
One by one mansions which housed
international personages and gave to
Fifth Avenue much of it's glitter and
fame, are surrendering to commercial
enterprise and the rich are seeking
homes in new exclusive" parts Of the
city. Real estate men, who have
watched with interest this aggression
of trade, say that another decade will
have wiped out the last bit of residen-
tial exclusiveneSs in the avenue.
Means Change in City.
The change in Fifth Avenue was re-
fected in the recent purchase of
property bordering the East River at
Fifty-Eighth street by Mrs. William X.
Vanderbilt, ST.. where she intends to
build a home in a section known as
Sutton Square. This bit of property
is directly across from Blackwell S
Island, where a city prison is located
and is almost underneath the Man
haitian approach to the Greensboro
Bridge. Real estate men expect that
Mrs. Vanderbilt's migration to the
East River will mean a new exclusive
district in a part Of the city where near
slums existed before.
Mrs. Vanderbilt, who a few years
back, helped to make Fifth Avenue
history with her brilliant social activi-
ties. said when she purchased the East
River property that Fifth Avenue had
lost It's residential atmosphere, which
was it's most valuable charm" Traffic
and crowds, resulting from the trade
invasion, she said, had taken away its
eXclusiveneSs.
The fight to save" Fifth Avenue, has
been waged since the late COS when
real estate men began to get options
on property near the magnificent man
sions. Members of the Vanderbilt
family and others owning homes there
expended millions of dollars in buying
up property in an effort to stem the
tide.
Advance Was Gradual
Much of this property was purchased
at exorbitant figures and after lapse
of years has fallen back for business
use, hotels. banking houses, jeweiry
stores. millinery and fine tailoring es-
Establishments have gradually crept
aorthward along the thoroughfare.
The home which Mrs. Vanderbilt is
foresaking, at Fifth Avenue and Fifty
Second Street, will become the site of
a trust company. Its sale was made
POSSIBLE as the result Of the death of
Mr.. Vanderbilt in Paris, when the
house owned by his estate, was sold to
the highest bidder. The first actual
treak in the Vanderbilt holdings came
when General Cornelius Vanderbilt
leased his home at Fifth Avenue and
Fiftv-Fourth street TO a shoe firm.
The residence of the late Henry c.
Prick. steel magnate, will eventually
go to the city for use as museum.
