and circulars, which had been dis
tributed every day from tae booth of
the association. No complaint had
heretofore been made regarding their
distribution, Mrs. Hankins stated,
and the order yesterday grew out OF
plan to have aeroplanes broadcast
some of the literature over the fair
grounds today

at the Fair in order to secure the
use of two aeroplanes. Mrs. Hankins

Mr.. Brown where she could find Mr..

the literature she had with her. asked
her what she had in her hands She
told him, she states, that 1t was tenn
perance literature, being distributed
from the booth of the Women $
Christian Temperance union. Accord
ing to Mrs. Hankins, Mr.. Brown then
told her that he objected to the dis
tribution, and that it would have TO
be stopped. Mrs. Hankins sworn
statement gives her account of the
interview.
Mrs Hankins and Mrs. l.. A. Daniel

cotics. stated late yesterday that la
dies of the Temperance union We're
determined to continue the distribu-

in spite of Mr.. Browns orders, and
that the program of having two

fair grounds would not be changed.
They stated, however, that il would
occur Saturday, instead of today as

Constantinople, October 9Th,
question of the evacuation of Thrac,
was the cause of the rupture in thu
Mudania conference, it was an
nounced at late hour tonight. The
attitude of the Turks and the Greek,
was very bellicose, threatening tn,
success of the conference.
Ismet Pasha, in n fiery mood,
upset the conference today. He
declared that the Turkish army
must enter Thrace Immediately
and his tone WINS determined.
General Harrington attempted
to reason with him after the
fashion which had proved so ef-
fective in dealing with minor
preiiminaries, but Ismet was nda-
mant.
To some 1t appeared tonight
that the conference was at an
end.
Turkey has set her heart on
Thrace and must have IL imme-
diately." said Ismet Pasha. 1--WE
VIII have IL peacefully II pOssi-

n minute to make more effective
his next deliberate phrnse--"but,

means to enforce our determina-

Constantinople, October 5.--Ab-
Mudania conference came to halt
this afternoon. When it viii be re-
sumed is a matter of conjecture.
Brigadier General Harrington, COM
mander of the allied forces and head
of the allied delegation, returned this
evening on the Battleship Iron Duke
and the Italian delegation also came
to Constantinople. 1t is understood
that the allied generals will go into
conference with the high commits
sioners on certain serious differences
which have arisen.
Various explanations for the separ-
alton of the delegates are given in
TIE many rumors. The one most gem
orally credited relates to the evacu-
ton of Constantinople. According to
unofficial information Ismet Pasha
nationalist representatives, M2ddenls
raised the question of the eVacution
OF Constantinople. General Haring-
ton replied that that would come after
the conclusion of the peace treaty
as set forth in the allied note.
Agreement Impossible
Ismet insisted repeatedly on an
earlier evacuation and it was found
impossible to reach an agreement
for the present on this important
point.
General Mobelli of Italy. supported
General Harrington. but the French
delegate, General Charpy, was non
commital.

their own men until the fifth inning,
when they realized the handicap they
were UP against and substituted three
men for a battery from Woodsville,
Barber and Mitchell and Carlson of

B. F. KEITH'S S-Helen Keller.

Almost every man. woman and
child in the United States has heard
of Helen Keller. But it is only
&, the few who are given the privilege
watching the delightful animation of
her face and thrilling at her marvel
Gus power. Miss Keller may not be
considered exactly in the light of a
mate any gathering of Intelligent
people. She may not properly belong
on vaudeville stage, but that is
probably the place where she can be-
of persons. Her performance is not
for criticism. 1t is part OF the
duty of every American to know
Helen Keller. to attempt to under
stand some of the difficulties she has
overcome, to practice portion, at
least. of her theory of happiness.
Her delight in meeting her audience
is, and should be, shared equally by
the audience itself.
Miss Keller last night spoke Of her
blind. she graduated with high
lonors from college. The activity of
her mind, combined with a wonder
full system of teaching by her CON
Macy, resulted in such development
that today she is able to hold an
ordinary conversation, not with the
use of the sign language, but with
the voice. SQe answers many QueS-
tions from the audience, and the
teacher explains many of the early
obstacles in training and how they
were overcome.
From Miss Keller, the thermom-
eter of high-class vaudeville takes
q sudden and decided drop. The re-
mainder of the bill is ordinary-quite
ordinary Miss Robbie Gordone, on
the program as "sculptress and art
lists model" poses as Autumn"

and others. She has a splendid fig
ure, so we applauded vigorously. The
poses really do not amount to much.
Macart and Bradford have a skit called
